Folks, I am stunned.

An almost 200-page official draft of a 10-year National Digitization Strategy (yeah, the title leaves a bit to be desired), published recently by the Polish Ministry of Digital Affairs, does not mention "hackers" or "hacking" once.

Not once!

It goes deep into cyber threats, cybersecurity, etc. It mentions "hacktivists" one single time, but in a way that doesn't even make me cringe.

But finds no need to besmirch the hacker community.

#Hackers

are you a programmer? do you like heavy metal? would you like to be *really upset* by a music video?

do i have something for you.

Cześć! Pisaliśmy Wam wczoraj o pozwie dla posłanki @polamatysiak który jest ewidentnie SLAPP-em (uciszającym pozwem). Jak wiecie nasza organizacja wspiera osoby dotknięte takimi działaniami prawnymi. Od piątku prowadzimy zbiórkę na opłacenie prawników, którzy udzielają pomocy w ramach naszej poradni, bo SLAPP to w Polsce spory problem. I dziś z okazji Międzynarodowego Dnia Praw Człowieka można zrobić coś dobrego wspierając ochronę wolności słowa - https://siecobywatelska.pl/walcz-ze-slapp/ Z góry dziękujemy za wszystkie wpłaty.

@agx The initial #Cellbroadcast implementation for #ModemManager just landed. Thanks to the MM maintainers for the review and @NGIZero for supporting this project.

#phosh bits (and polishing the MM side) will follow soon.

Things don't "fall into the public domain" at the end of their copyright term, Ugh.

Once released from copyright, works Ascend into the glorious ranks of the public domain, fulfilling their rightful destiny as part of the cultural heritage of humanity!

Chciałem wrzucić Poduszkę Zembatego (i tak was nie minie), ale zauważyłem, że muzyka tam — to Sygitowicz. Co wydaje się oczywiste, jak pomyśleć ;) No to — Sygitowicz.

#Chatty 0.8.6 is approaching 🎉 @devrtz tagged rc0 with plenty of fixes (including support for encrypted media).

See https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Chatty/-/releases/v0.8.6_rc.0 for details.

A year ago I wrote a blog post about Why #Debian is the way it is. I had occasion to re-read it recently, and as it still seemed good to me, I'll do promote it on the fediverse.

It could be augmented by adding more topics, such as why Debian packagers often make changes to the upstream code. Maybe I'll have energy for a follow-up some day.

Let's leave the ocap stuff to the side for now, then. Let's focus on what Bluesky and the fediverse have to learn from each other.

- The fediverse should adopt content-addressed storage and decentralized identity
- Bluesky should adopt real, actual federation and decentralization

If you're on BlueSky and want to bridge to Mastodon, follow @ap.brid.gy

That's it. Nothing to install, no terms of service to sign, no complicated garbage. If you want to stop, just block @ap.brid.gy

Details here: https://fed.brid.gy/docs

If you want to bridge your account to BlueSky, simply follow this account: @bsky.brid.gy

Why am I encouraging this? Because when BlueSky inevitably goes bad, people there will have friends in the Fediverse to help them move here.
