What is up you guys welcome back to Lone Fox? I am so excited because today's video is not a home decor video It's not a fashion decor video fashion fashion DIY video. It is not it's a DIY. Oh my gosh I am really messing this intro up and listening to Lana Del Rey Venice Beach right over here, so And I'm really excited because these DIY ideas are so inexpensive so easy But they're so like cool and trendy and things that you would see at Urban Outfitters or just like online where a case would Be like $50 we can make them for a couple of dollars I think you guys are really going to love this video if you guys would like to also follow me on Instagram It is Lone Fox home And if you want to follow my personal Instagram account where I post pictures more of myself you can follow me at I'm Drew Scott But without further ado, honestly, let's just get into this video For this metallic stripe phone case I used some metallic tape an exacto knife some Dixie cups a clear case and some easy cast resin Which I found at Joanne's fabrics So what I started off by doing was using these quarter inch wide strips of metallic tape Which I also found at Joanne's in just a tape section and it comes in four colors a silver Lightish gold color which I'm using right now and then it comes in a actual true yellow gold and a copper tone or sorry I'm more of a rose gold tone I guess you could say a little bit coppery and what I did was I just switched and Created a pattern with all four of these strips of metallic tape And the thing that I wanted to do with this was just kind of create a repeating diagonal stripe But I also realized that if you put all these tapes on here Of course are going to come off like it's not just gonna stick on your phone case forever So I exacted off the excess and then what I did was use this easy cast resin Which is so incredibly amazing to work with I'm so excited about this All you have to do is mix half of each part or equal parts of each So I used the same amount of the hardener and the same amount of the resin Mix them together for about two minutes using a stick just a little popsicle stick And this creates a chemical reaction which actually creates a super clear resin So once that is all mixed up you can pour it over the back of your phone case And I suggest doing a thinner layer than what I did this was the first time I did it So I kind of used a lot more than I should have but it dried completely fine I just took quite a bit longer and you can smooth it out with a popsicle stick And don't worry all of these air bubbles will actually completely pop over the course of like two hours And it becomes crystal clear and hardens into something like this that looks insane This next case is a bit more creative and what I used was some cross stitch fabric and embroidery hoop a clear case Embroidery needles and embroidery thread so I started off using my embroidery hoop Which I picked up for a couple dollars at the store And then I put my embroidery fabric on the inside of it and this is just kind of like a thicker weave linen fabric Which is great for embroidery because it has a little holes in it kind of like a checkerboard if you could think about it And what you're going to do is actually create cross stitches in this So you just go in through one of the holes go diagonal above to the next hole And then down through the opposite one and diagonal above to create a cross shown here And this is going to be used to create the entire shape of the popsicle So you're going to start off using whatever color you like a darker color and you're going to create a rectangle of this In a cross stitch form and once the rectangle is created I also did one strip down the center of the popsicle just to sort of show those ridges if you guys know what type of Popsicle I'm talking about I'm kind of following a reference photo which I'll show you in just a minute here from Pinterest Which I'll also link below to the respective owner But I really love the way that this one looked and I did a purple strip down the center And then I also went back and did a lighter purple strip down at the two inner sides Just sort of give it a little bit of dimension and really fill in those sections They're going to tie off these strings on the inside and use a orangish brown to create the stick Which I do believe was just four crosses total to create the stick Here's the reference photo here And I love this because the word suck it actually perfectly aligned with one popsicle So you can put the C in the K of suck on the right side and the S and the U on the left side So it's pretty easy to actually center this with the popsicle and it's also sort of on a grid system And what I did it was just embroider in the word suck and then I embroidered in the word it below it Just sort of on top without using a cross stitch pattern I just embroidered it to where you can actually see the lettering in the dark brown And I took off the embroidery hoop and then I laid my clear case over it because I'm able to see through it And then traced around it to give myself a guideline for where I'm going to be cutting this Then use my scissors just to cut it out and I kind of manipulated it a little bit after what I cut it out to fit perfectly on the top of the iPhone case and also created that eye hole where I Simply drew where the eye hole needed to be and then kind of gave a quarter inch around or about an eighth of an inch around the Eye hole just so that it kind of fit snugly in there But also looked finished and polished and I used a ton of e6000 to really mount this on the case So I went all the way to the edges and e6000 this on so that it stuck nice and firm and that is your completed stuffy case For this little star sequin case I used some star sequins some normal gold sequins the resin And then also a clear iPhone case So what I started off by doing was measuring equal parts of both the clear resin and the hardener that you get in the package Of course, and then I sprinkled on these little star sequins that I found at Joanne's fabrics all over the back of the case and then kind of set this aside So I was able to start mixing up the resin So I mixed the hardener with the actual resin and gave it a good stir for again two minutes Just so it activates that bond between the two chemicals And then I poured in some of the gold sequins and the gold glitter that was in the little package And I mixed it all together you can actually mix a lot of stuff into this resin They actually suggest you can do colors or you can do like glitter or whatever you want to do So I mixed in the sequins and poured it on the back of the iPhone case over the top of the stars that we originally placed and Just sort of use my popsicle stick to just melt it all together and just manipulate it everywhere Filled in some of the gaps and let that dry overnight and it created this incredible case This last case is the most inexpensive option and I use some graphic printouts a clear case scissors and a pen So these graphic printouts are from my DIY tumbler wallpaper video that I shared with you guys a while back But you can also use magazine clippings or whatever graphic you find that you like that will fit into this iPhone case And what I did was use my clear iPhone case and a pen just to mark around the edge And then cut it out of my graphic and the nice thing is that you can see through the clear So you're gonna know exactly what you're cutting out or exactly what you're tracing to start off with and then once you Cut out this shape You can also trim down the edges a little bit just so it fits perfectly inside the actual clear case Because you're going to be pushing this inside prior to putting your iPhone in which is kind of gonna lock it in between Your phone and the case and then what I did was use a pen just to mark out the iPhone camera hole And I use an exacto knife to cut that out really quickly and once you have one of these actually created You can use it as a template to create more of them, which is exactly what I did I love this concept because you can interchange it to so many times So I laid down the little paper template that we made prior Traced it and then cut it out on multiple different papers So this really cute baby you are so many one is so perfect because you could actually interchange these like every couple days If you wanted to or just whenever you felt like it So I cut that out trimmed it out again and there you go You can just slip it in your iPhone case and you have so many convertible options Okay, how good were those like props to myself a little pat on the back. Why don't you? Probably most excited to put the popsicle one that says suck it on it I think that is so cute and quirky but also a little bit raunchy in the same way Like I love that juxtaposition and I also really want to make the star one at the little star glittery one for my own Personal iPhone. I don't actually have the iPhone XS Max or whatever. It's called yet I'll probably get it in the future, but at the moment I have the iPhone X I'm going to make a case for that one using the stars because that one is so cute as well I love the way it shimmers and that resin you guys is amazing I am so excited to use that more often and make sure to subscribe to my channel for more videos I post DIYs home decor random stuff every single week on this channel And you can also check out my past library of videos and I will catch you guys in the next one.

All right, what is going on in Door Hardware Nerds? Welcome to another episode of the Door Hardware Nerds. We've got Mia and I here with a, I guess it's not really an episode, it's more of like a special announcement, right? We've got an announcement, some things are changing, things are happening at the Door Hardware Nerds. And yeah, Mia, why don't you tell us a little bit about what's changing or what's going on?  We're not like going away or anything like that. But like Mia has like, tell us what's going on. Yeah, so we're, as a group, trying to make Door Hardware Nerds bigger and better. So we're calling it Door Hardware Nerds 2.0. And I think what that really means though, is that people are gonna see a lot more of you, Benji, and a lot less of me, because I am getting pulled into some other special projects at Asa Abloy. So I have to take a step back. But the good news is, I think we're really excited to bring some different content and variety of folks. But Benji, why don't you tell us what that means from your end? Yeah, okay, so a little less of your face and a lot more of my face, unfortunately for the viewers, right? I'm excited to step into this new role, whatever that looks like, to take on more ownership of the Door Hardware Nerds. We've got some exciting things that are coming to the show. We've got some new content creators that are joining the team. There's gonna be new shows that are gonna be released shortly on the channel. So you'll have to drop by and see the new shows. And then I think last but not least is one of the most exciting things is we created a support group. It's a LinkedIn group, but we're calling it like a support group.  And we're crafting this community to help foster that culture as the Door Hardware Nerds move to the next phase of the series, right? Yeah, I think it's gonna be great. I think it's really gonna let the channel go to the next level, hopefully get even more folks involved interacting, really that next level of community building. Yeah, and it's not just Door Hardware. We're gonna bring people in from the access control side of things. We're gonna be talking about physical security. We're gonna talk about integrations. So yeah, we are the Door Hardware Nerds and everything comes back to the opening of the door, but we're broadening what that looks like. And I for one am really excited to see what this phase of the episodes look like. Yeah, I'm excited to be more of a viewer instead of a maker.  Here you go, Benji, take it, take it, please. Yeah, so I think it'll be an interesting journey and I am very excited to see where it goes. Yeah, me too. Yeah, the handing over of the keys, it's sad. I mean, you're not going anywhere, right? Like you're still gonna be part of the show and the channels just focus on the Door Hardware Nerds, right? Yeah, you'll still see me pop up in unhinged episodes and occasionally do interviews and things like that, but I won't be the main person driving the channel anymore. And since we have the support group now, you'll see the giveaways come out through that. You'll see the posts come out through that. So I'll still be here in the background, but lots of other new folks that you'll get to see and meet. We're growing. We are. All right, Benji, so here's the keys to the city. Thank you. Hopefully I don't mess everything up. I'll be here for cleanup if we need it. Well, thank you, Mia, for everything you've done for the channel. And again, you're not going anywhere. Just taking a step back and making a way for new content creators to join the channel. Exciting time. So everybody, thanks for sticking with me for the last two years. And I can't wait to see where we all go together. Yes. And if you haven't joined the support group already, make sure you do. We'll drop a link down in the comments below or just go to LinkedIn and type in Door Hardware Nerds and you'll find us. Bye, everyone. Take care. We'll see you next time. Thanks for watching.


Okay, we have now reached the final talk of the legal and policy issues dev room, which is, yeah I know, it's hard to believe, where did the day go? It's your organizers panel, it's the four of us. The moment you've been waiting for. Yeah, hot topics. Patena, Karen, Bradley and myself. Well maybe hot topics but also potentially feedback on the room and things people would like to see us improve for a future. Sure. Do you want to take it away? Yeah, should we start with that? Great. So, yeah, does anybody have any suggestions on, so let's do a show of hands. Raise your hand if you saw we had a good mix of panels and talks. Okay, so that's like, that's pretty much everybody. Raise your hand if you thought that most of the talks were 25 minutes. Raise your hand if you thought that that was too short. Okay, so like three people, four people raised their hands but like in a shaky. Raise your hand if you think that was just right. That's like three quarters of the room. I'm not going to ask about too long. Does anybody have any suggestions of things that we should do if we do this again? Lightning talks.  Raise your hand if you like the idea of lightning talks. Oh, cool. So it's like three quarters of the room. This is great because last year we asked for feedback and we were told that people wanted more than just a day at Fosdame and so we took that feedback and now we have copy left comp on Monday. So if anyone wants to come to that, it's copyleftconf.org on Monday. It's just 15 euro for hobbyists and that'll help cover lunch. So any other suggestions? Oh, you can register at the booth as well. I have a question. How many of you thought about maybe making a proposal for the dev room but saw the CFP was 14,000 pages long and way too long. Was our CFP too complicated? Anybody? Oh. Who thinks the CFP was too long and complicated? Anyone? Okay. Did anybody... Raise your hand if you read the CFP. Okay, three people read the CFP. It was like a quarter of the room. Raise your hand if you found the Easter egg I put in the CFP. Raise your hand if you thought about submitting to the dev room but didn't. Okay, so next year submit. I saw you, Jim. Does anybody else have any ideas, things we should try other than lightning talks? More a comment which I applauded that I'm going but I don't think a copyleft conference really replaces the possibility that would be great for me in particular of having these being wider in FOSDOM. So the comment was that having copyleft CFP doesn't solve the problem that there isn't more legal and policy dev room at FOSDOM. Just because it's not part of FOSDOM or for other reasons. Let's pass the microphone because if you... And so let us know if you're going to talk for more than just a quick minute so that we can get you the microphone because otherwise the recording is really terrible. Oh, I thought he was... Oh, you're on the hook, Jim. I don't know why Tom went up there. So I think there are several reasons that it might change from person to person but coming to FOSDOM is for many people a tradition, for many people is a commitment and extending the visit one day is not very... It's not easy for everyone. And also, copyleft CFP is not a free event which is something that I saw many people complain about. I did not see many people complaining about it because we have specified in lots of places that if the 15 euro that will cover your lunch is too much to let us know and we have volunteering opportunities and we'll work with you. But there are challenges to having more... It's not fully our choice to have only a one-day dev room and we don't want to necessarily conflict with anything else. I have to say a huge shout out to the community room for working with us. We cooperated with them, we coordinated our days and we coordinated our speakers and that's a real advantage. Yeah, and we used to always apply for two days. With the advent of the community dev room there was enough overlap that it made more sense really for us to each apply for one day and we requested the FOSM organizers put us each on different days. That seems to work better. There is the community dev room tomorrow. After going to that, if you still feel the way that you feel that we really should be applying for two days, we're willing to do it. The last time we had two days of this, I'll just be very frank, we got just enough talk submissions to fill the two days. Basically, everybody's accepted that year, which is fine. They were all good talks but it was tight. We're going to have to fill some content here. We aren't sure that there actually is two days of material. Go ahead, Jim. I was just going to halfway jokingly suggest that if you, Bradley, me, and Max can agree on whether something is a derivative work, it's a derivative work dammit and we should just sit down there for an hour and take questions. All right, so submit that as a panel for next year, Jim. I would like to counter the, like, please make it two days again because the legal and policy dev room only being one day gives me a chance to spend the other day doing other stuff and in my experience, the dev room is so good that I want to stay in it the whole day which kind of makes me miss the whole rest of the conference so I really like it being, like, one day good content and also thank you for an awesome dev room. Wow. That's a perfect moment before you go, Remy. So I do this every year and it gets worse every year. Not all organizers up here are equal. Some are better than others. In fact, one is much better than the rest of them and it's not, tell me. It is Tom Marble. He does all the work and we get the credit and every year we promise to do more and we do less. And he does more. And this room would not exist without Tom in the first place because Tom was the first person to ever suggest that we do it after his experience helping co-run the Java dev room and said we should have this. He approached us and convinced us to do it. At that point I had never been to Fosdham. I think maybe you hadn't either. Yeah. And did you? No. So none of us have been to Fosdham and Tom made this happen and then he's been the lead every year doing most of the work. So we have a couple of gifts for you, Tom. They're not fancy but they represent the better things in life from our perspective. Some chocolate and some wine. No, I'm sorry. It's a shirt with wine inside. A shirt with wine? I wrapped it in a shirt. I don't think so. How fancy. And we actually have another box of more fancy chocolates that we left in the hotel rooms but we'll get that later. Goodness. Well, thank you very much. Well, I will say I don't think I would have had the guts to do this without the varied support of all four of us. So I think it's been a great team effort and it is kind of amazing to me that this is our eighth year and eight long years. Okay. But I didn't do all the work. I'd love to take all the credit. But I can't take all the credit. Before it comes to mutual appreciation society, Remy, tell us what you have to say. Thanks again, everybody. Definitely. I really like that the community and the legal dev room are, you know, you're recognizing there's a serious overlap between the audiences. Since legal got the upgraded gigantic room, community did not last year and there was a lot of line where like you couldn't get into the community dev room. So if they are related and it is the same amount of people and we should have this many of a room for this track, maybe we can get a bigger track for community too. I don't know. They actually upgraded us in the last minute. So we have zero influence on it and it's tough. We're really grateful to FOSDEM for organizing such an amazing conference and it's a huge logistics battle for them. So we're grateful for what we get. So I don't have a necessary good answer to this, but a thing that I notice and this happens here in this room and also in my life, I speak to people and I see people speaking and a lot of software people, you know, they go to detail, they're good with abstraction, but they're unfamiliar with a lot of the terminology, a lot of the legal concepts and the talks here vary, obviously, and some of them are at quite, should we say, quite a high legal level. Maybe we could have, I don't know, a glossary on the poster on the wall or we could have like a 101 legal terms or like structure of law and software or something kind of more introductory. Yeah, some are a web page or something. Would it be acceptable if it was written materials that were available and like a URL on the board? Yeah, you could put a URL on the board and then people can go like, what even is that thing and look it up on the laptop? I think it's a great feedback. We did design this dev room. One of the goals we had, when Tom came up with that idea, we said, well, you know, there's so many, you go to any open source and free software conference and you see the legal issues 101 talk. This is what copyrights are. This is what patents are. We do not want that talk in this room. This room is not for the intro, but I agree with you that we don't want to be unwelcoming to people who don't have up to speed. I saw people like, I saw the like stress in the room when Van was saying, exhaustion is exhaustion that people like, tell me what exhaustion is, right? And so I think it would have been a great idea if we had had a web page that had the definition of patent exhaustion so that when Van started, people could have been loading that. And that's a challenge with the 25 minute talks as well. Right. And it makes it difficult to make an interesting talk and think something that's got enough content in it. You don't want to be distracting at the most like intro stuff. Does anybody else have any other feedback? Do we want to talk about some of the... We want to talk about some of the interesting events and... Right. So now that we've done it, we did the feedback first. Do you want our usual, like we decide what was important this year and tell you what we thought about it? Is that what you're after now? We have another. There's a lot of talks. I don't, I'm bad at this. Oh my gosh. There are three tracks of awesome copy left related talks. It is incredible. I can't think of, there's no other place where you will get that content. It's astounding. I'm kind of stressed because I don't know which to choose to go to myself. But that's the whole point. It's going to be awesome. But they will be recorded. Yeah, I don't want to oversell that because just in case, you know, you don't want to be like, it's recorded and then it's, but we're planning to be recording it. The FOSDEM video staff is helping us out. So we have a much higher chance of success than if we were left to our own devices. But so hopefully that'll be that. And that's sort of the goal, is that then we have all that great content about copy left recorded so everyone can experience it at their own pace. But it's not the same if you're not present, in person and flush. So Tom, every year we get up here for the last three. I think this is the third in the row. And we decide and tell them all the big things in policy and legal issues and free software. Well, we don't decide now. We already decided, didn't we? How much time do we have left in this? We have plenty of time. We have plenty of time. We have plenty of time. So, I mean, we did have Lambie's talk, which told us the big thing of this year, which is everybody's writing their own cloud license. Everybody. Yeah, that's interesting. I guess, let's talk about the cloud licensing thing for a second. I have this feeling and it's just a feeling. I'd love to get feedback on this. That some of these actors that are saying, well, the AGPL isn't going far enough, they claim that, you know, the developers of the software aren't getting properly remunerated for their efforts. I think it's kind of disingenuous because I think that what they really want is they want Amazon to pay them for maybe doing something but not necessarily recognizing the giants on whose shoulders they're software is based and ultimately, you know, the developers that were part of it. So, it seems sort of not really straightforward. Is it all really about that? I've been wondering that all year. Is it all about Amazon? Is it everybody just, Amazon takes our stuff and we license freely and doesn't contribute that? I think Amazon is the convenient scapegoat. Obviously, any network services host or could be blamed for this but it seems like it's a fashion trend that it's, what do they call it? Network freeloaders? There are two questions. I'll go with you and then... Yeah, I was just going to say, I mean, there's, I think in some of the cases, the competitive concern is not apparently Amazon but Amazon is the convenient corporate entity that they want to bash. Could you please first explain why non-commercial is non-free? I mean, what harm does it do to the freedom of the users? I mean, just because I have a mic, I'll try to answer that. I don't know if I'm the best person to answer that. I think it's a really good question because I think we tend to assume that there's a right to commercial freedom in free software without, just because it's sort of like a religious kind of belief and I don't think it's really examined much. Calling it freedom zero, right? That's just freedom zero. It's sort of part of freedom zero, right? But you could imagine a version of freedom zero that excluded commercial freedom. I think it's because this culture that free software came out of was, frankly, it was a partially entrepreneurial culture. These were developers who wanted, saw nothing wrong with the general idea of supporting themselves through software development and support of software that they wrote and so forth. But they did see something wrong with the proprietary model, which was a new thing for the software industry, which was very young at the time that free software was emerging. So it was a culture that was already kind of oriented towards, sort of positively towards commercial activity, maybe not large scale commercial activity but small scale. So I don't, why exclude, what is so bad about commercial activity that it should not be protected like all other kinds of endeavors is maybe the question to ask. I think one of the issues that we see, especially in the free culture space, is that the definition of what is commercial and what is not commercial is extremely difficult. And so going into that area creates a lot of question marks and it's quite difficult. So there's a piece of Linux, I just want to finish one point on his question here. There's an interesting piece of Linux history. Most people don't know that Linux was under a non-commercial use only license when it was first released. And the reason that Linus gave when he changed the license relatively early on, was he got sick of being contacted by Lugs who were saying, burnt CDs and they cost like ten dollars US a piece, to recover the money and sell them at the lug, but it's non-commercial use, so what do I do? And he was giving out all these exceptions to each time. So he finally said, well maybe I should actually use a free software license because apparently it took him a while to realize that, and then chose the GPL. So it's a great example of what Karen was saying, where they crossed the line to commercial merely because they wanted to recoup their cost and they couldn't do it with a non-commercial license. So I think that alone is enough to convince me, but I also feel there were a lot of debates that people really thought this through and were like, well, it's really hard to say who's on equal footing with whom. And I always felt that the way non-commercial and commercial activity was treated equally put everybody on equal footing. Read the game manifesto. So just echoing what Tom... The creative commons put together like an analysis of what people considered to be commercial and non-commercial and you can take a look at that, it's fascinating. Just echoing Tom's point about the folks that complain about the GPL for instance not being strong enough. What I see is mostly commercial entities that have adopted free and open source software licenses as a way to reach a certain number of goals but then see that as they grow, this is maybe counterproductive to them to still use free and open source licenses. And I think it's really disingenuous in this sense, which is the one that complained that copy left license do not probably be commercial usage are effectively commercial entities mostly. These are proprietary software companies. Why did copy left licenses come to be used as an instrument, a business kind of tool by proprietary software licenses? That's the sort of question that I think I've been asking myself for a long time and puzzling over. And I think that's kind of one of the strange things about free software legal culture that has really shaped it and over the past year these efforts at writing new, at least in some cases, definitely non-free licenses has kind of exposed that kind of problem again. So Philippe, maybe to interpret what you're saying, maybe they started with Redis, for example, AGPL but then really decided that they wanted to go to a non-free, non-open-source license, but they called it the Commons cause because it sounds nice and you might think it's an open-source license but really it's really just a way of transitioning back to proprietary license. Yeah, big switch, absolutely. Yeah, it's really nothing new though. I mean, I'm sort of glad that it's getting a lot of exposure because it's something that we've been talking about for ages. So I have a much better answer to this question of why do free software licenses need to permit commercial use? And the answer is software freedom is not something that that we, you know, it's not just something that we have to be able to exercise individually, ourselves alone. Software freedom is something we need to be able to exercise collectively. It's a thing that we need to be able to build ecosystems of everybody who has software freedom and everybody is collaborating together to exercise that freedom to give people the freedom that they want. If you have a non-commercial use license then you can't set up a consultancy that will help people solve their problems with that software. You can't distribute that software to people and cover your costs.  You have to work to live.  Now, that's not necessarily a big problem, but it does mean that you will never be able to pay somebody to do the free software thing that you cannot do yourself. And that's just not good enough. Yeah, I think to me, your argument comes down again to what is commercial and what is non-commercial because I could imagine folks saying, well, wouldn't we really enjoy the alternate universe where we make such great software that we can make charitable models around our technology? And, you know, people at charities do get paid. They don't get paid as much as they do in the private sector, but there could be a lot of great results for doing that. But I think that it all keeps coming down to the fact that it's very difficult to draw the lines. crowdfunding. Taryn, do you want to talk about leanness? Leanness? Well, so were we done with the new licenses? I wanted to mention that there was a new one this week. And Van, is Van still here? Oh yeah, so Van is involved with the drafting.  And so it's very inspirational about humanity's next ascendance. And then you're like, oh, okay, so it's hollow chain. So let's see, who's writing this license? And it's like, oh, it's hollow. The company is hollow and the product is hollow chain.  And they're hiring, by the way, which, but it was like, that's how I figured out that they were a for-profit company because you had to, like, dig to figure out that they were a charity or foundation or something like that. And so it's just fascinating. So I just sort of want to mention that they're coming up in other contexts, too. What's good about the hollow chain example, though, is that they're specifically state that they'll be doing their process in public and that they're inviting comment. And I think that was missing from these other licenses that were basically just dropped. So now I have to talk about, this is what you're saying. Well, if you want to.  So, sorry, we talked a little bit before the organizers panel about whether, I mean, there's this overlap with the community of Devereux that we're talking about here. And I actually think Code of Conduct issues are a policy issue because Code of Conduct is a policy. So I think it's appropriate for our Devereux. Code of Conduct reached a level that was quite disturbing and dangerous for a lot of people because it got to the point where, we're at the point where people who are supporting the idea of a Code of Conduct get death threats attacked online, verbally, those sorts of things. Which is really upsetting. The manner in which Linux projects switched its Code of Conduct, the Code of Conflict to a Code of Conduct was interesting. And I don't know if I want to say more than that yet. Let's see what somebody else has to say. Do you have anything to say on that, Tom? No. Are you going to say everything that you're thinking? Who here heard that Linus Torvalds took a brief step away from the kernel because of Code of Conflict issues? Do people know about a New Yorker article about Linus' behavior? Almost everybody raised their hand to the first, only half the room raised on the second. The third question is, of those of you who know, how many know that they were contemporaneous? So I... I can't even be a victim. That's about a quarter of the room. So I think the interesting thing to me about that from a policy perspective is something that I've actually complained about on this panel two years ago, I think, which is that we don't have very much of a press in free software. While there are some good journalists out there, they are overworked and underpaid, and there aren't that many articles written by independent journalists about things that are happening in open source and free software. That's a problem in the tech industry generally, but I think it's interesting that a very important and I think generally positive change was forced by the press. Because I'm sorry to be a little U.S. biased here, but I believe in a contankerous free press is valuable to the future of democracy and a republic. And therefore I think it's a really good thing that the press was able to pressure that switch and that Linux project actually is being developed right now. But we see very little mainstream press coverage of free software of course, and as you're saying, in the tech press there's really one, I think, one really sort of professional level news organization and really not a whole lot more than that. And one news organization is never a good thing. And so there has to be more than one for there to be real. There's a very interesting thing about this which I don't know if you've thought about and I'll just raise it as a question. Would the events here including Linux's Leave of Absence and the adoption of the code of conduct have happened were there not a relationship between the Linux kernel project and a certain trade organization? If there were the kernel of the 1990s or the much more independent of the commercial corporate interests? It's just something that popped into my head. Well, I think that one of the things we're seeing how do we always end up talking mostly about Linux on this panel? But one of the things that concerns me about Linux is the amount of copyright that is now being held by companies. I think we talked about that last year. And so that's related to your question and one of these situations where a project that was a community project is now mostly a corporate project. Over a long period of time it's slowly shifted to that. And I think that relates to your question. I'm not sure if I have an answer to your question or if I want to answer your question. Given the corporate interest in Linux I have to tell you, I've been astounded that it hadn't happened long ago because the liability alone of the companies that were involved in the kernel was high. I mean, when I would talk about, when I would be asked to do continuing legal education, so like classes for lawyers and people would start asking me about liability points the bad behavior by employees is a, you know something that came high to the list and the exposure of employees to hostile environments also is high on the list. And so I'm amazed that it took so long to get to this point. So maybe someone, did their people raise their hands? Anyone who hadn't contributed yet? Okay, people change their minds. Ian really wants to say something. I mean, I might but it's interesting you ask that question. Debian in the last few months of last year in January has had a code of conduct issue and that has taken it, that was quite unpleasant and it looks quite unpleasant from the outside I can tell you if you read the private mailing list it's really quite bad. No fun at all. And I don't really know whether that answers your question about corporate influence. You know, Debian I think the majority of Debian are moving in the right direction but again, it's not it's not easy and it's not without conflict. Debian does not have the BDFL problem. These things are hard. I mean, they're hard and I think especially with developers the lines are blurry and I have actually, I have to talk about this BosDem a couple of years ago about, it was called Identity Crisis, it was a keynote here and basically the identity that we have as developers, as contributors to Free Software Project as our job but also as our identity and as hanging out with friends it's all really blurry. I mean, I always ask this when I give that talk how many people work on Free Software related things and have changed their job but continue working on the same thing. So like people are nodding their hands.  People switch from job to job but they do exactly the same thing with the same people. Some of these people are doing jobs that they were doing or working on things that they worked on as university students and so it's hard to remember that there is, it's hard to remember what's professional and what's personal when you're just hanging out with your friends and when you're in a professional environment and I think that's a big part of what happened with these cultures and since we've been particularly inclusive for so long it means that we have, it's complicated and we have to get over this and I tell you that Debbie in Private Thread was so demotivating to so many of us but we'll work through it, right? We'll improve our infrastructure. Molly gave a great talk earlier today about it and that's how we'll move on and we'll make Free Software better. We need to have diversity in Free Software because if we don't we're going to have instances like those soap dispensers that only work on white hands, right? Like these are, it's, we need to have diverse perspectives in order to make sure that the technology we create is is sufficient for what we need it. So, so actually give me this one I see, Richard. So what do you think the most important thing that happened since last FOSDM in Free Software Policy is? The most, the most the most important thing since the last time we did this panel about a year ago. I don't know. I mean, like I can't say, I can't say like these, these, this whole like MongoDB, Redis, Commons Clause thing. Because you think that's, it's not important. No, because I think that's that's... Actually, is this a trick question? It's not a trick question. It's actually an open-ended question. I don't... See what you'll say. I don't, I rarely on a panel do I rarely do I ask questions I don't know the answer to that the person's going to give and I do not know the answer you're going to give. For, for a few years I was being roped into by my employer to kind of write this top 10 news stories in open-source and free software for the year legal, legal news stories. Well, how is he listical? Yeah. Now, a famous lawyer in open-source named Mark Radcliffe beat me to it this time. So I just didn't even bother and I don't know what he listed for all I know he may have listed the Linux Code of Conduct thing. But I don't know. Like, recently this whole the MongoDB license thing has been on my mind partly because of my work with the OSI. But I don't really know the answer to your question. I was, I was not, I just don't think in terms of years. Okay. Sorry. You're not, thanks. Oh, that's, that's not a I mean, it's, it's a... I thought that was the leading question. That was the leading question. You think of that as a... I don't know that. I don't think that's necessarily the answer to the question. I mean, it's a Radcliffe's list now that I recall. But I just don't actually weirdly think of that as a, an open-source legal story.  But it's a policy story. That's no way in. Well, I just, I'm sure most of you know, but just to make sure we're all clear which your Fontana works for a red hat. Not anymore. Yes. Yes, I do. I was acquired by IBM. And you heard some of our speakers mention this while Italo was unambiguous in his thought process about it. What is your thought process about IBM acquiring red hat? Are you looking at me? Okay. Who at our panel works for red hat? Who works for red hat? So who's talking to you? So I think I'm not, I'm not really able, so this is one of the few situations where I'm actually going to say I'm not really able to comment on this. I will say that the atmosphere at red hat is for the most part you know, things are just like moving on as usual and the acquisition hasn't actually happened yet. So the closing is planned to happen sometime, maybe at the end of this year. So, yeah, there's nothing I can really say. Yeah, I mean, and so you know, having lived through the urban oracle acquisition, which was a disaster for free software, Jim, because so many projects not just diaspora projects inside sun because sun for all their faults that we heard about today in an earlier talk was making some efforts to be a better citizen to these projects and almost all of them having to fork to survive. And I hope that doesn't happen to a lot of the projects that red hat does that I would hope that it doesn't but IBM's manner of participating in upstream projects is indeed radically different for red hats. Yeah, it is different. It's a different kind of legacy. One thing I will say, for example I would have always said this is that IBM had a different approach to dealing with these institutions, trade associations, non-profit organizations compared to red hat. Red hat had this kind of position of, you know, we're not going to get involved in all these entangling alliances. IBM was kind of all about you know, getting involved in organizations and starting organizations like that, you know, going back decades. So that's a that's just like one, you know, interesting difference. Yeah, IBM is often credited as the key organization that caused the OSDL free standards group merger that formed the Linux Foundation, for example. So that's a good example where that occurred. Yeah, IBM was certainly a major factor in the formation of OSDL to begin with. But you work for red hat, which will soon be IBM, but you don't work for Github and don't work for Microsoft. So can you comment on the acquisition of Microsoft? I'm staring at Justin Collin, you know. Well, I didn't ask him to comment because he works for Microsoft. I mean, that's not a free software story. I mean, Github is a proprietary software service provider. In fact, that's how I felt about it when I heard about it was I was like, oh, one proprietary software company acquired another proprietary software company. It has something to do with developers and developers like open source and it's kind of connected to a lot of open source projects are hosted on Github. And Github recommends licenses and recommends how you put a license file in your project. So that matters. Yeah, they don't like the use of copying, which is part of the GNU tradition. So they like the license to be called license.  It's a tradition. It's all about tradition. I'm glad you raised those two acquisitions at the same time because I think that they stand for the same proposition, which is that things change and that the way things are today are not the way that things will be tomorrow and we have to take whatever actions we can to protect ourselves to protect ourselves against the evil versions of ourselves and others and having distributed copyrights, choosing copy left these are all things making nonprofits strong these are all ways that we can help protect ourselves. Yeah, I'm just going to change the topic. We could talk about that all day, but I've been concerned about DRM for a long, long time but I was always protected from it because I have no DRM capable software on my laptop so it didn't affect me. I just boycut everything. But things are just closing in. It's hard, but sometimes it works. But things have been closing in and now public service broadcasters are putting requiring DRM to watch their TV channels and I'm just getting concerned that my one man boycott is not sufficient to combat this threat anymore and so since there were no two man boycott, thank you very much I appreciate that. Since there was no pretty talk about DRM today, I presume nobody submitted a talk about it. Is there anyone who can give any hope or any suggestions for what might happen in 2019 regarding DRM? So I frequently these days think of something Seth Shone of the EFF told me when he was working in the anti-DRM campaigns in the early 2000s that the way the inter-industry conversations happened the phrase they used was DRM is inevitable and that was the starting point of every conversation. I think DRM was inevitable. The one thing I did not disclose in our keynote this morning is that I am in fact not part of that boycott anymore. I admit to having used systems recently that have DRM in them and I'm not happy about that or comfortable with it but I have done it and I believe that the very few people boycott is not working and I don't know what we do about it but we're always on a collision course between DRM and free software how that collision course pays out now I'm not sure. We can try to change the law because right now DRM is actually killing copyright exceptions for instance and we are from Portugal and we managed to change the law in a way that you could break the technology to use to make a copyright exception. Actually there was a change or proposal in this European copyright reform in the beginning sadly it was rejected by one vote but we can try to look at in your country look at the law probably the law says that you can't break DRM even for legal purposes but we'll give you a workaround usually that workaround will not work then go to your politicians and say the law doesn't work please correct it that's what we have done and we did it absolutely I mean this is one of the reasons Conservancy is really really focused on getting some of the DMCA exceptions in place we did one at Conservancy for smart TVs and I worked on one for medical devices with a bunch of other medical device researchers this is amazing I hope that we can continue more discussion up Monday at copy left conf and otherwise next year thank you so much to the other organizers and to all of you this is so great

I was curious to see if kyle allen was going to be back Because this man, I mean, you know, he did his thing in in washington for a little bit I guess to a certain extent But I mean it's just brutal to watch that offense right now They put they're putting back davis mills in I believe this is what I read and that that's what that's what you want to see I mean, you know, you're hoping he can get back that rapport with nico collins and in some of the other pieces They are hopefully damian pierce is able to get going a little bit And that's what kind of worries me about that line is that's probably set more to the kyle allen realm This team is the Texans that is they've only lost by a number this large One time this year. I believe that was to the raiders earlier on in the season when they started this however many game losing streak that they're on Um, so that that makes me a little bit weary and then with the chief side of things I'd be willing to take a number of them of this magnitude if they were at home, but you know, the vision will match up Um, it's on the road there in mile high things could just get weird Um, you know, it's a game where I like the under probably more than I like a chief spread by nine and a half close to 10 So, you know really at this time of the season I'm kind of just looking at those positions now, you know, uh, we got The the cowboys aren't home at least and I mean the thing about this houston team when it's davis mills or not Is that you know, they they can turn the ball over and so that we know that the that dallas is an opportunity opportunistic defense But that being said, you know, they could maybe trevon's taken a chance and then nico is able to get away from one You know, they were they were able to keep it kind of close in contention there Uh in the first half against cleveland and then things kind of got away from them on fluky stuff So but these numbers they just feel weird at this time of year where i'm just willing to maybe look at unders instead of the spreads And let that ride Yeah, I think a lot of me when i'm looking at these games depends on what a team does when they're ahead for a team like The bills specifically now this will not pertain to the jets game because I don't think that game will get out of hand but um The bills specifically they keep their foot on the gas they Are pushing for all four quarters. We've got a large sample on them doing this So they're one component of this with the cheese couple used to go against the rams. They um They kind of just like messed around I don't know they seemed like they were lolly gagging for a lot of that game. They didn't cover Uh, at least the opening number. Um, I think it got to around 15 or so Which is what that number one of being at but like That is interesting. So i'm not sure You know what out of you that one with the cowboys you mentioned like the chaos of their defense That's accurate and like that's part of why I would broadly be receptive to laying a big number with them Because I know that they can create chaos as we saw in that cold scheme They can generate scores of their defense if they decide to go run heavy late in the game They're run blocking kicks but so they could still run at the score despite being run heavy late So I think the cowboys I'd be receptive to it now I've not Bet this my numbers have uh my traditional model as a cowboy sir by 17.8 Huge number there and my newer model has them favored by 19 points So in general 16 and a half should be like enough, but like I said, I don't have a deep enough like Like back testing well to to test to test these big numbers Somebody uses a data point, you know to to strengthen my model to to try to find How she did this later on so I've not bet it but you know I think that probably the cowboys are the kind of team I'd be okay doing it because the chaos on defense Because they just are kick butt in the run game. I think that would be make that would make me more receptive to it Now I mentioned Ryan. I don't think the bills would be in coast mode this week Let's talk about that game. We got the jets at the bills 9 and a half point spread total is 43 and a half and the jets actually did win this first meeting They have since made a change of quarterback So 9 and a half kind of a big number what you're seeing in this game Yeah, I think that the bills are on a mission, right? They're seeing the the writing on the wall here of that they you know can still control their own destiny as it relates to to the afc standings and you know, this is a team where The public's going to be watching and seeing do the bills have what it takes to really be that super bowl favorite that They were at the beginning of the year nine and a half does feel like a big number. There's jets defense. I mean the secondary is incredible Garrett wilson has been playing otherworldly. Mike white is you know, the jet savior is that wilson's pretty much on his way out Um, but you know the bills are at home We are getting into december and I know the jets play on the east coast too But I just feel like there's time of year this when the bills buckle down They're getting healthier on defense. Definitely love to see that So it's just like they have the offensive firepower to put any team away Um, you know, maybe there's some maybe there's some emotions riding high from that loss earlier this year when they kind of Let one get away and they and we've seen that for them the past couple of years Of them letting one get away, but they're at home. The crowd's going to be rocking I'm willing to lay the nine and a half here with with buffalo It doesn't feel all all that great because you know, the jets can kind of stay in in game The way that they're coached and you know, shout out shout out to the coaching staff in the regime But just the way that buffalo Is geared up and you know, definitely the way that they showed that they could take it to a team in the division on Thursday night football last week on the road in new england I think they're just riding off of that and i'm willing to lay the nine and a half year Yeah, I did bet the jets plus nine and a half Um, I think that one thing that goes in your favor here is there is rain in the forecast on thursday And in the past that would have worried me with the bills because their ground game Was pretty bad. It's looked a lot better recently. They're going to a lot more heavy personnel James cooked looked really good in that game back on thursday night Now you get that kind of like mini buy to get a rookie ramped up a bit more I think that's encouraging for him So I think that the bills may be better able to handle the elements now than they would have been previously With james cook looking good With their personnel. I think they're finding a groove there as well. So I think that that could help them there um The reason I wanted to take in the jets is everything you mentioned the defense specifically My numbers my um, my new model has the jets first in the defense power rankings in the entire league The bills are very high still in defense But you take von miller out of the equation Not quite as high there. Like I said, they're getting healthier elsewhere beyond von miller. So that's definitely a good thing for them, but I just like the jets keep this thing close and I've talked about this tuesday But I did not bump up their offense for mike white being in there because it's mike white and I don't want to You know overreact to a two game sample one game Which he played pretty poorly against the vikings another game which he you know played a bear's I'm not going to poop on the bear's right a game Which he played basically the bear's second string defense because everyone is out Um, like that's that's tough to like make a bump up based on that So I do not have an adjustment in there for mike white It is a bump down for their rushing offense with no breeze hall so Even when I do all that stuff My baseline model has the bills by 7.37 My other model which likes the jets a bit more is actually closer to like five. I think that's a bit too short But uh with both numbers pointing the same way. I am taking the plus nine and a half Despite the fact it is It makes me kind of want to vomit betting on mike white for the third consecutive week, but like here we are Does does the does the juju run out at some point? Well ran out last week. So yeah, I think it already did just like how did I get here? How am I betting on like I didn't when I placed the the bear's bet It was still up in the air who would start but I honestly didn't care because I was like, you know You know, I didn't think the yields is going to play So like whatever I'll bet this and I want to be mike white last we got new full well It'd be mike white. I still bet it. Um, they almost won. They probably should have won, but they should have here we are Yep Oh, man, that's funny. Yeah. Oh well, we'll see how that goes. So what could go wrong betting mike white three consecutive games Let's move now out west and talk about tom brady versus brock perty. It's the bucks at the 49ers 49ers are three and a half point favorites here a total is 37 and a half and This is our first game scene brock perty as a starter. So I want to know for you How much does putting perty in there shift your view of the 49ers specifically against a pretty solid bucks defense Yeah, I mean This is just and I'll let you wax poetic jim because you do so well on it But this is just one of those lines that you just got it. They got to talk me into what's going on here You know and that you know, I think I ragged down vegas Maybe it was last week or a couple weeks ago and that that always will come back to hancha as a better So I apologize to the vegas powers that be but this is one that just it really You know, and I get for Tampa Bay struggles this year and just always having to find themselves in Situations where it's coming down to a last, you know It drive that brady needs to put something together in order to win them the game. This is on the road there But I I just feel like jimmy garoppolo being out, you know, during the game I felt like the team kind of rallied behind brock and gave him the the energy and juice that they needed and they were kind of Taking it to the dolphins pretty handedly there I'm from a defense side of things But you know, this this bucks v if they can get it together with the guys who are out there Catch this football. I mean julio seeing somewhat of a resurgence Brady seems to trust him a little bit godwind, you know, we'll see if evans can finally get going here I know how this team looks on paper, but I do feel like at some point You know, this is a team that I'm not willing to trust with jimmy g When they're favored by heavier than three because they they find ways to they find ways to blow it You know more often than not under the shanahan regime and now we got a tom brady team You know this bucks defense like you're talking about like they do exactly what you would want against a 49ers offense They're great against the run and they're going to force you to pass to weapons that you know are not Fully healthy debo. I don't think is still fully healthy And they got this guy and brock purdy who might have his hands full And if that we do get some Opportunistic opportunities for the defense as we're talking about here This could be a long day for for the 49ers just to get something going Which is why i'm willing to take the three and a half because especially in these closer games I feel like this number for for brady here at you know getting three and a half points. Why not? I think that i'm on the same side as you for this one because it like i'm not a big jimmy g guy I hate Like I like numbers I hate that the numbers people people who I respect a lot tend to like like jimmy geolux I'm like you're kind of like let's pedal it back a bit like If you watch this happen, you kind of know that he can combust in in certain situations with that said He is a very efficient quarterback and that's undisputable and it almost seems like disrespectful to garoppolo that this line is three and a half because like It's it seems like we're discounting what he does to make this and again I'm not a huge jimmy g guy, but like he does a lot to maximize a talent in this offense He doesn't like raise the talent this offense, but he allows it to live up to its ceiling So my numbers have the 49ers by 2.4 and then by 1.7 depending on the model So both these show value in the box I was hoping it might get to four It did feel like a blip a very quick second on tuesday I believe very quick where it flashed a four put them back to three and a half If we got to a push on four i'd be it, but It's minus 118 on the plus three and a half Which means it's more likely to get to three than it is to back to four That to me says I missed the boat by not getting that four when it was posted very briefly So i'm probably gonna stay away and i'm okay with that honestly like I think that the bucks are undervalued here But there's no tristan werff so it's no tristan werffs against a very good defensive line The nickbosa did miss practice wednesday So i'm on the same side as you where I think the bucks are undervalued here I think I didn't get in when I could have potentially to to bet them But I do think that this is Again almost disrespectful to garoppolo that we're viewing the 49ers At absolutely jim I I couldn't I couldn't agree more and the the public ironically is is feeling the way Against them. They're they're feeling the 49ers side. So I mean, yeah Maybe maybe there's something to it that we don't know that that the bugs are are dealing with behind there I mean, I will say this offensive line has got to figure out some stuff and get it together Because that that is really probably the the scary thing for taking the buck side Is this front seven is not going to play games with the 49ers? So uh smith and the rest of these guys on offensive line have got to make sure they're sure it up because If brady's hitting the ground, um, he you know, we might see another outburst on the sidelines for him for the second Week in a row.  They're just they're nuts Okay, let's move on to the sunday night game. It's two of versus herbert I don't want to pitch it that way, but everyone else is so why not let's look into it See dolphins minus three and a half it was three it shifted to three and a half Total is 51 and a half the chargers. I don't need this game to stay in uh playoff contention in the asc Can they actually show some life here and do that against the dolphins or the dolphins keep on rolling? yeah, so This this is one to the miami's miami still on the west coast. Um, you know for the second straight week The offense is kind of Petered out a little bit. I mean to you know to a came back down to earth and against a strong 49ers defense now, you know the chargers what they really do well is stop the pass They have trouble stopping the run and we know miami We thought that they were going to be a more run heavy team to start this year with mc daniel and all the things Coming in with this regime, but they love to pass and so this is one where you know I love the over of 51 and a half because points are going to need to be had in this game I feel like for miami to win and anytime miami, you know anytime the team that the chargers are playing against Can take a lead. We know what the chargers do and that's absolutely abandoned the run And they're just running short passes and trying to get their weapons to the ball I think mike williams is is geared back to come Play in this game. We love that keenon ellen's been healthy. He's been a huge huge help to this offense Josh palmer has been Magnificent and eklers should be able to get going here too. The chargers getting three and a half at home It's just one i'm gonna take every time. I talk about this with herbert all the time If he you know needed to be three or whatever and it's the last minute field goal for the dolphins so be it But herbert is always just finding a way to stay in these games and especially knowing that they need to win I mean staley is going to be going for it pretty much on every four I don't know if the chargers punt in this game if it really comes down to it because I might not need to buy It might not get to four down. Right might not even get to four down So love that. I mean, there is some opportunity there. I think even on the money line at plus 150 That i'm interested in but when we're looking at public money jim and and talking about it from that standpoint I mean people love the dolphin 68 of the bets coming in on the dolphins minus three 57 Money, um, and I'll just you know, I'll just let that be what it is and fade the public on this one Yeah, I think that this is one of those spots where I I created the sentiment You were saying where you almost prefer the chargers as underdogs and it's it's because They can't play their their stupid stupid stupid offense where it's like these little bunny targets like I I wish they were like just tell jill and barney that it's fourth and 12 every play just tell him like Hey, it's fourth and 12. Hey, I pretty sure we just got the ball. No, joe. Sorry. It's fourth and 12 Let's hurry. We're also down 15 Like I want them to be in that kind of scramble mode because they can play well in that scenario Which means if they fall behind they can claw the way back in the mike williams thing is important too Because my numbers have the dolphins by 4.5 in this game But that is assuming mike williams out but he did practice on wednesday They haven't had a lot of overlap between mike williams and keenan allen this year If keenan allen gets ruled in like if he is taken off the injured report by sunday Then I wouldn't be shocked if I'm not going to show value in the chargers side But I will no longer show value on the dolphins I know that so even though my numbers show value in the doll the in the dolphins right now I'm not betting that because I do agree anecdotally where I want the chargers in scramble mode I'm assuming I think there's a chance keenan or mike williams gets ruled in and when that happens that'll shift things the other direction so I think that I just want to see the chargers in scramble mode That's like my like my christmas wish is seeing them in scramble at all times Let's get them an offense that allows them to do that not just in the fourth quarter not just on fourth and 12 I I desperately want that for sure, but I think it'll be a fun game either way. I think that uh It should be good one Hopefully turn arms as they able to play for the dolphins too We'll see how that transpires the week goes along though. What are the bets you see in across week 14 ryan? all right, so let's look at these other bets so This is detroit minnesota game jim We knew I talk about detroit every week if This is going for me. I am I am going to take the over in this game at 52 and a half And just from the sole reason of what the numbers are showing us For the detroit lions all season playing at home. I mean these games have been absolutely bananas So I expect a ton of points to be scored in bunches here I mean dalvin cook, you know on the one side he should be able to get going We got justin jefferson. We got almanra same brown. We got james and williams potentially don't miss dj. Charke man Don't disrespect my guy dj. Charke. Yes Mr. 90 dj. Charke and damian vanity last week. It was only 52. I did exaggerate Fair enough fair enough, but yeah, he paid off for you. Um No, this one is a tough one for me on the line because the they're getting the lions are just so Steamed up by the public and where the bets are coming in and it's two and a half And and the vikings have been the most luckiest team in All of the nfl I mean the games that they are winning like even the juts game last week like they really should have lost that game They had the lead and then yeah, we're trying to give them every chance to come back into that game Plus two and a half here. It's a divisional game where things could happen So i'm just hoping that those weird things happen and lead to point scored I'm going to take the 52 and a half there Would not shock me though if the vikings are able to upset the public By getting two and a half points there. What they're plus 120 on the money line not that great The other game that i'm looking at there is cincinati at home against cleveland cincinati is six and a half point favorites Plus 100 on the fan duel sportsbook for that money. I do like that. This is a revenge game narrative I mean the skevin's the fanski and the cleveland browns have really like been able to I don't know what it is when they play the bingles, but they play up and that that october 31st game What has to be a sour taste in the bingles mouth, especially the way that they hit their stride Right now in the season coming off a big win against the chiefs Like this team is going to be rockin ready to roll full throttle the cleveland You know cleveland's got to show me something even with the new quarterback that they Here it took them three non-offensive scores to be able to put away houston. That's right three non-offensive scores to be able to put away the one in ten houston taxons So, you know that even with the six and a half close to seven points spread Like i'm just willing to take cincinati at face value there Not too much else that i'm that i'm seeing from the side I will say the other game that i probably will have a little bit of interest in is the jackson bill in tennessee game uh jackson bill getting three points there, you know, why not? You know, definitely talk about variable and them being at home But like again defensive wise the one thing that the jackson bill jaguars can do or do well is stopping the run So if we're able to contain darik henry, I know treylon berks is on is on the injury report I'm not sure what his status is but this offense really petered out against the eagles When he left the game last week, so if he's unable to go I just don't have faith in this offense enough to be able to put a team away now again on the other side We need to see trevor lorenz's status as well too. I know he left that game You might know more about his status and what that's looking like But if lorenz is playing that i'm willing to get this three and a half number and maybe it shifts If we do get him officially rolled in so that's why I might take a chance early on jackson bill right now I've got the jack's money line. So I uh, I panicked a bit when they said he's missing practice wednesday, and I was like, uh, oh I think I made a mistake and I talked Tuesday about how like I wanted to bet the over on the total If it got down below 42 and a half it is now 41 and a half uh with the over of minus 105 I have not taken that yet because of lorenz if lorenz gets ruled in I will take that so We're on the same side there like you mentioned The jags can stop the run The titans defense. I think is a bit overrated personally. I don't know Especially against the past so I agree Jags are the way to be here if we get confirmation lorenz will go if he practices in a limited fashion thursday, I'd fire We saw some movement back towards the jags overnight and then went back It was 172 then 166 then 168 now. So it's been holding pretty steady, but I think the over is in play here and I do like the jags. So Once again, we are back on the trevor lorenz train. Luckily it was not there last week So that was good, but we'll see if we can uh, but on the fighting jags once again this week That is ryan williams want to thank you once again ryan for swinging by For today back with us on monday to talk about cardinals versus patriots, but until then have a fantastic weekend We'll talk to you again on monday.

One person died and five were injured when a helicopter crash landed in the ocean off Western Norway, police said. The Sikorsky-S-92 aircraft was on a search and rescue training mission when the accident occurred, officials have said. The helicopter belonged to Bristow-Norway, the company's country manager, Heidi Wolf-Heimerke, told daily Stavanger-Affenblad. Bristow-Norway transports crew to and from oil and gas platforms in the North Sea. The six people on board were hoisted from the sea by rescue workers, but one was later declared dead in hospital, police said in a statement. Haulkland University Hospital, the region's largest, said it had received all six patients from the accident. Investigations are underway after a search and rescue configured Sikorsky-S-92 operated by Bristow Group came down off the coast of Norway. Bristow says the helicopter, which it identifies as LNOIJ, was involved in an accident around west of Bergen. The aircraft is contracted to a civilian customer and was conducting a training mission at the time of the incident, Bristow says. Sikorsky adds, we are aware of the incident and stand ready to support the investigative authorities and our customer. Security is our top priority.


Some Bemidji area residents are still reveling in the Olympic spirit after cheering on family members who are on the men's curling team. The Josh Peterson introduces us to some proud Bemidji parents and in-laws that now have Olympic gold in the family. It's a moment most will never experience, but through the Olympic games, we all share in the pride when Team USA wins the gold. In Bemidji, that pride hits close to home with direct ties with members of the gold-winning men's curling team. Meet the polos and the Brett Schneiders. They followed their family members to the winter games and had no doubt in their minds they would bring home the gold. We were there to support our team and we had a lot of faith in them and they started putting things together and picked the right time to start stringing some wins. The excitement and energy from Team USA fans was contagious and said to play a key role in the men's curling success. They thrive off of that crowd. They tell us that all the time, that the crowd helps them get positive and get energized. They love it. Making their first Olympic trip, the Brett Schneiders say that curling has become a large part of their family and that family keeps growing.  This is the second winter games for the polo family who experienced a proud moment that has built a stronger sense of American pride. You know, you can't listen to the national anthem the same way anymore.  The Brett Schneiders echo that same feeling when they hear the national anthem. It's just a very emotional moment and to look across and see all of our guys standing on that top podium with their hands on their heart and all singing the national anthem. I don't know that I'll ever, when I ever hear the national anthem again, I'll always remember that moment. Even though the games have ended, their sights are already set on the next winter games. Yeah, for sure.  You can't miss that. You know, you have to support your son. Yeah, got a goal, man. We're ready for China. It's Beijing, four years, that's where it's at. In Bemidji, Josh Peterson, Lakeland News. This is the first time Team USA has brought home Olympic gold in men's curling.

In today's video I want to talk about how to dribble like Messi. Now if you saw a video I recently released, it was called How to Dribble a Soccer Bowl. And a lot of the same principles apply because I would use Messi as probably the number one example or one of the best examples of how you should be dribbling. So if you go and watch that video, How to Dribble a Soccer Bowl, I'll put a link in the description of this video. Watch that video because it's got a lot of great ideas and some of the same ideas I'm going to share in this video, but it's just great to review, give you more information, give you more ideas to use the next time you're on the field when you're practicing. Okay, so let's go through a couple things.  Is he using rainbows and elastocos and triple backflip, step overs, no, okay? He's a dribbler in the world, but he doesn't use any tricks. Why are we teaching kids to use tricks? Yes, use some tricks, use a step over here and there, okay? But if you look at Messi, what is it? It's all cuts and it's body faints, okay? So before we get to cuts and body faints, first we got to talk about the basic dribbling and that is very little touches, okay? Close to your body. Let's look at dribbling forward, okay? So it's with the outside of the foot or the laces or the toe, okay? These little touches, head's always up, head's always up, scanning the field, looking for passes, okay? Let me come again, okay? Head's always up, always looking around, okay? Remember, if your head's like this, right here, you can't see your passes.  So that's another point that I should touch on. Yes, I want you to be a great dribbler and I know you're watching this video because you want to be a better dribbler, but you have to know that dribbling isn't as important as receiving, passing, moving the ball quickly, okay? There will be spots when you need to dribble and I want you to dribble, especially when there's space in front of you, there's space to attack. You have no help, you have to get out of trouble. That's when you dribble, okay? But when you have teammates in better positions, where you're getting closed down quickly, pass that ball, move, get into space and get the ball back, okay? So now that you know that, you're going to play smart, you're not going to dribble yourself into trouble, let's get back to the dribbling, okay? So it's those little touches, this head's always up, okay? And I'm going to use my left foot. I shouldn't have my Portugal jersey on, doing messy, okay? But little touches and little cuts, just like that, okay? I'll go all left-footed today for it, okay? Little cuts, little cuts.  So inside cut, outside, just these little changes of direction, okay? So now let's look at when he is coming up against players. So first of all, if no one's closing you down, don't just jog, don't just wait for people to close you down. Messi will sprint with that ball, okay? He'll sprint into the open space until someone closes him down. If no one closes him down, guys are trying to catch him, you just keep going straight towards the net, okay? So think about that being very direct. So when you receive the ball, can you get that first touch? Say a pass comes, can you get that first touch out of your feet? And then just sprint straight to the net. If no one's going to close you down, just take that space and then make your pass or get your shot on net. If they're not going to close you down, you don't have to do anything more advanced than that or more difficult than that. Just be very direct, sprint straight to the net, okay? Then when there are guys in the way, what does he do? Let's set up a couple of defenders here. Okay, so when there are guys in the way, it's just really one way, cutting the other way. Cut inside, okay? Bad cut. But I might cut one way, skip the other way, okay? And if you look at that touch, it's like a skip out of the way, okay? Skip and forward. If you watch some of the other videos I did about basic moves to beat people, one of them is the skip and the other one's just a cut inside or a left, right, like that, okay? But dribble at him, cut away from him, cut away from him. And just think about when Messi picks the ball up on the right side of the field, say he's playing out on the wing, and he gets the ball and he just coasts inside.   So when you get the ball out on the wing, yes, sometimes you want to go down the side and cut those crosses in, but come inside for that shot, okay? And that's going to allow space for your winger. So say the middle of the field is here, you receive the ball on the sideline, come at him, come inside, come inside, and then you get your shot off or you play your pass. And like I was saying, that releases a space, opens up space for your full back, okay?  So little touches, be very direct with speed. If no one's going to close you down, just take that space. When guys do come at you, just cut, just cut out of the way, jump out of the way, keep going with speed. Very important, once you beat the guy, you're not just jogging now, you're sprinting into that space. He's lunged for you, he's off balance. Now there's opportunity to take that space, okay? The other thing I'll say about Messi is, he will use some feints, some body feints, okay?   Or he will faint like he's going to go this way and that way or then a little step and then a right, left. There's that famous one where he embarrasses Nanny, okay, he's like on the spot, fake like I'm going there, touch left, go right and then accelerate away with speed, okay? Also if there's a guy in your back, he might fake this way, fake that, okay? So it's not crazy moves, it's not crazy tricks, okay? It's just faint this way, faint that way and go the other way, cut or faint, okay? Especially when there's a guy on his back, he does that a lot, he'll faint like this and then come down, not going to the defender, let's do that again, have him on his back, faint that way, oh I missed it again. Let's get this right for the kids, fake that way, good. Okay, so those little touches with speed, very direct, cuts, just go at him, cut away, make it simple on yourself. If you go with speed, you're in control.  Where's the guy going, okay? So go at him with speed, make him defend you, just cut to the side, be very direct. If you want to use those feints, fake like you're going that way and then come the other way but be very direct, make it very simple and really the best thing you can do is learn from the master, go on YouTube, watch those messy dribbling compilations, study him, okay, what does he do? I can give you my advice, the best thing for you to do is find out what you think works for him and then try it when you're on the field. All right guys, I hope you liked this video. Please like, give me a thumbs up, please comment below if you have any advice, if you want to make fun of my dribbling skills, comment below, please share this video on social media, share it with your friends, share it with your teammates and thank you for watching this video on how to dribble like messy.

Hi, I'm Jake Edwards, and I am a non-binary YouTuber and musician. Some bright lights. Why are pronouns important? Well, pronouns are a part of the language you use to address a person, and they change depending on who you're talking to, and you should always address someone with respect. Deciding not to use the correct pronouns for a trans person is a huge sign of disrespect, and will most likely lead to that person feeling deeply uncomfortable and possibly even unsafe in your company. Personal pronouns are not, as people popularly believe, just he and she. The singular use of they-them pronouns have been around since the 14th century, and was used as a gender-neutral pronoun. The use of they-them has been gradually increasing since the 1970s as singular personal pronouns, as the need for gender-neutral and inclusive language has progressed. Today it is widely understood that gender is a spectrum just like sexuality. We have people who sit at very fixed binary points of male and female, but many people exist in this space around those points. This is called non-binary. Many non-binary people like to use they-them pronouns as they don't implicate a binary gender and make them feel uncomfortable. It's important to remember that you can never be sure of a person's pronouns just by looking at them. Gender is a spectrum, and the way we express and present our gender to the outside world is just as vast as that spectrum. Asking a person what their pronouns are is not rude. It can be a little bit intimidating at first, but once you get into the habit you can be confident that you won't be incorrectly assuming a person's pronouns based on how they present. This is a positive step forward, as it normalises the behaviour of not making assumptions and not linking a person's clothing to how they identify. Many people argue that they-them pronouns are plural and cannot be used as a person's singular pronouns because it's confusing. Much of the English language is confusing and it's not uncommon to have words that have multiple meanings. Some people just don't realise how often they use they-them in a singular context already. For example, Jamie is bringing a friend over, but I don't know their name. It's used to refer to a person whose gendered pronoun has not yet been identified. So why not use they-them for one person? If someone you meet has pronouns that are they-them, you should respect that and use them because the impact of misgendering them can take a huge toll on their mental health and it's extremely disrespectful. Since the 14th century, pronouns outside of he, she and they have been brought into our language. These are pronouns like A, Lee, C and Don, although most of these aren't in use today.  It can be hard to learn to conjugate these pronouns, but if you meet a person who uses them, it doesn't hurt to give it your best shot and take direction from them or even look it up for yourself. It takes a small amount of effort on your behalf, but it will most likely mean the world to a person who uses neo pronouns. I feel like my eye is twitching. The landscape of our language is always changing and adapting to suit our needs, just as more labels for sexuality have come around over the years. Gender identities have gone through the same thing. Non-binary is an umbrella term that encompasses many labels. Gender fluid is someone who considers their gender to be fluid rather than fixed on one point. Gender is someone who identifies as two genders, which could be male, female or a number of other things. Agenda is someone who doesn't have a gender at all and so on. These identities are vast and unique to each person and no one really feels their gender in the same way. For many non-binary people, using he or she can make them uncomfortable, but lots of people use multiple pronouns. I personally identify as non-binary and my pronouns are he or they and that's because I feel a connection to masculinity, but I often feel very fluid and unconstrained by masculine ideas. The term preferred pronouns only comes into play when a person uses multiple pronouns but has a preference. This preference can change day to day as their gender fluctuates. My preferred pronouns are they, but only because they're not the only pronouns that honor me. A trans person does not have preferred pronouns if they only take one set of pronouns, saying that someone with one set of pronouns has preferred pronouns implies that they have multiple, and in doing so you risk thinking it's okay to misgender them. So using the correct pronouns is not optional. It's okay to ask, respect how labels and language are evolving, and always be open to learning new things. We all have to start somewhere.


CENT tests using senorebditis elegans to screen for early-stage pancreatic cancer. Senorebditis elegans or C. elegans are a type of nematode. C. elegans are about one millimeter in length and these tiny roundworms have an excellent sense of smell. C. elegans have previously been used in CENT tests to screen for various cancers. In the cover paper published in AlcoTarget's Volume 12 Issue 17, researchers conducted a new study on C. elegans and investigated their ability to detect early pancreatic cancer.
