I'm at the coolest network meeting for EU gov #OSPO's in Brussels today 🔥🔥

I had an opportunity to talk with Dirk Schrödter, Minister for Digitalization of Schleswig-Holstein (SH), and currently listening to SH CIO Sven Thomson's presentation.

SH is so far ahead!! They're implementing #Linux desktops, They're already using #Nextcloud and #LibreOffice, and end of this month all their gov email will be migrated from Microsoft Exchange to #OpenXChange.

@CyReVolt yes, stukkie wukkie would be a better, more accurate, error message than "misconfigured"!

@CyReVolt I suspect it means the same as the following classics:

"Something went wrong"

"Ooops"

"This cannot happen"

Check out this nice Danish website where you can follow the analogisation of society: analogist.dk/

@wesdym thanks.I guess one way to look at it is "if I save most of my wages, how many years do I need to work before I have enough money to buy my own house?" There was a time when that was getting better, but nowadays it's more like "forget it, you will never own a house, you're not part of the house-owning class in this society".

"Mobile-zombie-free zone" sign spotted at a playground in in recently.

Ironically that made me pick up my own phone to take this photo, acting like another of those infamous zombies. In my defense I did not actually enter the playground, so strictly speaking I did not violate the sanctity of the mobile-zombie-free zone. Also, the phone ( yay!) was back in pocket directly without further zombie-like behaviour. 🙂

@balslev varsågod, använd gärna bilden!

Vilken fin sida ni har där! analogist.dk/

"Følg med i hvordan analogiseringen skrider fremad" 😃

@samuel ja, men jag tror att även om LiberaPay får till det där så betyder det inte att saken är klar, för den som betalar måste också ha Taler-mynt att betala med, vilket för oss i Sverige skulle betyda att det fanns någon som kunde ge svenska kronor i form av Taler. Och det finns ingen som gör det idag. Det behöver vara någon bank med på ett hörn, det fanns en idé om att JAK-banken skulle kunna göra det men det har inte blivit av, inte ännu i alla fall. Kanske går det bättre i andra länder.

We're happy to announce three projects will be funded to contribute to the TALER secure electronic payment system based on open standards, free software, and advanced cryptography.

The three projects are:
Libre Payments in Ruby, a GNU Taler Integration for ethical trade.
Taler in Liberapay, an implementation of Taler as payment provider in Liberapay.
And Taler OpenAPI specification, a JSON/YAML OpenAPI for key GNU Taler API's.

@benlockwood does "compensation" in that graph mean how much workers are paid, their hourly wages?

@Karin jag tänker på den här biten ur en sång som mina barn sjungit i skolan, en sorts lite modernare avslutnings-sång:

"... Rektorn har just hållit tal
om moral och ideal..."

Moral och ideal, det är det vi förväntar oss av dig som rektor. Du ska inpränta det i alla runtomkring! 😄
