Gatze erwache!

AFAIK, no.

It depends on the laws in your country. And IANAL.

But, usually, as long as you don't publish (or play publicly), it's fine. The lyrics, the arrangement, as well as the melody, and everything else, are subject to copyright. So if you want to publish a cover, you need permission to use the relevant parts. The usual exceptions of your country's copyright law, like fair use in the usa, apply of course. But I haven't yet seen anything that would allow covers.

Also, from what I've heard of people making covers, they usually first have to look if the original author has allowed covers. Often they allow non-commercial covers only, unless asked. On youtube, copyright is also not handled very strictly, and it has a feature where the original author can claim the copyright offender's revenues, so the video stays online, but the money doesn't (or only partially) goes to the coverer.

That they are doing it doesn't mean they want it this way. Ubuntu calls its half yearly releases unstable (or used to), which scares users off. Upgrading is also hard on ubuntu (compared to arch, where the set of installed packages stays (apart from renaming and similar) the same). And for the software where they need it, the users already use ppas, probably. And then there are the users who almost only use a browser. And there are enterprise users who don't upgrade because not all of their software works on new ubuntu.

I've recently started listening more to STPR and similar boygroups. It's kinda stupid, but catchy and fun. Examples: 1 2 3

Ubuntu being shit for personal users is all but new (Who wants 2 year old software? I want upstream's latest stable release. Who likes snap?). Ubuntu having higher hardware requirements than other distros is also not new (it's the reason why I switched away from it over a decade ago). Ubuntu breaking stuff is also not new (big upgrades of ubuntu flavors have always been disrupting for me). Ubuntu shipping new premature things instead of being stable also feels not new to me.

Ubuntu is doing ubuntu things. It's interesting to see how far it went. The video also has a bit of needless whining though (who cares about the different default for sudo asterisks, just change the setting).

Der Mann aus dem Schwammrobert Film!

I shower in the shower.

Nur weil es das in deiner Kindheit gab, heißt es nicht, dass es es in späteren Kindheiten nicht mehr gegeben hat.

Could you please clarify in the rules which definition the word "should" follows?

Otherwise, they are quite similar:

Thanks for your transparency.
