    You’re probably the only one, but thank you for saying that. 🙂

      Does the lack of licensing in this comment mean it’s okay to steal?

        Nope, the opposite: in the absence of an explicit license, the default is “all rights reserved.”

        I don’t think just thanking someone is real content. /shrug

        (Edit: I also declare all that I post/comment is licensed by me as well, in my user account description area.)

        But answering someone who thinks they are being funny or annoying, by explaining things to them, would be considered content by me.

          I kind of suspected it might be something like that, but it was a genuine query that, yes, was intended to be mildly humorous. I don’t intentionally annoy except maybe my wife.

          Your indirect accusation made me smirk, but as far as I’ve noticed you’re the only one who does this without doing it on every comment, which seemed interesting enough to observe.

              Ah. Well, I have questions or comments I could make about the license. However, while I feel passionately about Unix and Linux and OSS in general, I don’t think I have anything useful or interesting to add to the thread that hasn’t already been said.

              I wish you luck both with finding engaging conversation and with your licensing.

                A little passive-aggressive of you 😜 but I’m betting you could find answers to your questions if you looked through my comment history, starting about 10ish months ago. There was ALLOT of conversation about it at that time. You’d probably also see the kind of comments you’d make already made as well, saving you some time.

                However, while I feel passionately about Unix and Linux and OSS in general, I don’t think I have anything useful or interesting to add to the thread that hasn’t already been said.

                That’s fine, I didn’t mean to suggest that you personally (vs others) had to comment on the subject at hand, just that I wish I would only have to respond to comments of the subject at hand.

                I wish you luck both with finding engaging conversation and with your licensing.

                And may you have a GREAT day today!

                  A little passive-aggressive of you

                  That’s a fair interpretation, but in fact I was trying to avoid the appearance of passive aggression by providing a reason for my exiting the conversation, rather than just bailing.
