    Wait, just so I’m understanding, the dock works with the LG TV if you connect your laptop or Surface Pro, but not your Steam Deck? If so, it sounds like there’s either a setting on your Steam Deck that needs to be changed or the Deck itself is faulty.

    Does the Deck work with other HDMI monitors?






  • I second this @OP / @Tippon@lemmy.dbzer0.com, you’ll want to think carefully about if this is a situation where an open source/copyleft license is what you want to use. A couple concerns:

    • Any Creative Commons license will require the festival to list a credit for your work. That might not be an issue for the app or website, but the festival might not be interested in listing “poster by Tippon, used under a Creative Commons 4.0 license” every time they use something you created on social media, in print, or advertising.
    • An open source/copyleft license will permit other people to use the work you’ve created.
      • The festival might not appreciate this if you’ve created a graphic for them and some third party shows up selling t-shirts without giving the festival any money. You might not be able to use CC BY-NC if you want the festival to be able to sell things as a fundraiser, but then that opens it up to anybody to sell what you’ve created for the festival without giving money to the festival.
      • It sounds like you’re wanting to be able to reuse/sell your work to other clients in the future. If any of them figure out that your work for the festival is available under an open source/copyleft license, they can just take that without hiring you and then have their nephew/friend/AI make adjustments to the work you did for the festival.

    There are great reasons to use open source/copyleft licenses, but I don’t think they can or should be used in every situation. In this case they could be bad for both your and the festival’s interests. Ideally you’d be able to talk to a lawyer who specializes in contract and copyright law; the festival clearly has similar issues with other volunteer suppliers so perhaps they can find a lawyer willing to donate some time to provide them with a template that can be used for all their suppliers. Or if you’re doing a lot of freelance work yourself it’s probably worth finding your own attorney.

    Otherwise I’d try searching online for “example content license,” “example image license,” “example development license,” or similar along with your state/province/country and try to come up with at least something basic to cover you and the festival.

    Of course, if none of the concerns I raised are actually issues, Creative Commons has some great licenses.



  • I guess how new are you talking? I think this said it was based on the 2019 release, but I haven’t heard much about recent releases. Winamp 2 was the classic one most people remember. Winamp 3 was a rewrite that was supposed to be better under the hood but a lot of people didn’t like it, mainly for the new interface it seemed. They jumped to Winamp 5 (2+3) to restore much of the old interface while keeping the capabilities of 3. I never had issues with 5 and continued to use it through Windows 7. Haven’t used Windows much since then so I don’t know how it runs now. There have been very rare point updates since AOL took over and later sold it, mostly bugfixes.
