@collabora It is without a doubt that Collabora played an instrumental role in making the Linux display stack a huge success story both for Collabora's finances and for the wider ecosystem. I hope they do the same with the Linux Desktop Environment.

@JenWojcik I would not descredit all the innocent plants and wildlife that will go extinct with us through no fault of their own. Our actions don't affect just humans, it effects all life on the planet.
@helidon I ❤️ Weblogic

Document themes are coming to #LibreOffice 7.6, in August! You can define colour schemes and switch between them with a few clicks. Thanks to Tomaž Vajngerl at Collabora for implementing them: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/7.6#Core_/_General

@gnomealex Thanks for the update to this exciting project!
@ljrk Actually, Oracle has done an amazing job with Java. They have put in more resources than Sun Microsystems ever did and increased community participation. Java is better now than it ever was under Sun Microsystems.

It's ok, password, don't listen to them. You're perfect the way you are.

OpenAI threatening to leave the EU if they pass legislation requiring them to list their data sources because:
"In addition to the possible business threat, forcing OpenAI to identify its use of copyrighted data would expose the company to potential lawsuits. Generative AI systems like ChatGPT and DALL-E are trained using large amounts of data scraped from the web, much of it copyright protected. When companies disclose these data sources it leaves them open to legal challenges."
Like every other boom tech company, it's just doing labor crimes and theft and claiming you're actually too innovative to be regulated, God.
@TheCodeLorax @geerlingguy Finally, a fair assessment. Oracle is just using this for publicity. If the roles were reversed, they would have never allowed the source code to be available anywhere as long as Red Hat did.
