Assuming you are gay, have never committed a crime in your life and have illegally used software licensed with the “Be gay, do crime” license, you would have committed a crime, but because you did, you would have been following the license, which would mean you havent committed a crime, creating a paradox
Civil matter, not a crime.

That there’s no please-ignore-this-license license?
I like the hot potato license, but granting commit rights only to inhabitants of the milky way galaxy is too restrictive.
I suppose in about 4.5 billion years the Andromedans can start committing also. (That or nobody can since it won’t be the Milky Way any more)
yeah, either that or none of the Milkdromeda inhabitants will be able to commit

Using this software requires giving your first child to the author so that they can “immolate it to the devil”.
i’m feeling the urge to hide this clause in one of my projects. i’d change it to Rumpelstiltskin though.
Are you sure EA or Ubisoft didn’t already beat you to it? Lol
they don’t take your firstborn but go straight for your soul instead
There’s no way this is how Rumpelstilzchen is spelled in English…
duckduckgoes
IT IS. English takes every single French word, keeps its spelling but mangles the pronunciation but for Rumpelstilzchen the pronunciation is somehow more relevant than the spelling? It makes some sense, but the ending “stiltskin” is an abomination.
The meaning of “stilzchen” is “small stilt” by the way - so he should’ve be called “Grumblestilty” in English.
in a community I was in a while ago, there was a license someone used called the “anyone but Jeff license” which banned people named Jeff from using the Minecraft mod
Isn’t the “passive aggressive licence” just MIT?

The Nuclear Waste Software License is brilliant. Not only does it make the right impact when publishing random write-only code, it’s legally BSD so lawyers won’t be up your arse about it. In fact, it only strengthens the warranty disclaimer.
Winamp Collaborative License
A “source-available” license that says you can’t fork the project, which means it is illegal to click the fork button on GitHub (which is a violation of the GitHub ToS) and also makes it impossible to create any pull requests without push access to the original repo. Source
Oh yeah, I remember that whole fiasco from a few months back.
