About the #CrowdStrike thing:
"the company is “deeply sorry for impact that we’ve caused to customers”"
[...]
"Kurtz said there had been a “negative interaction” between the update and Microsoft’s operating system"
[...]
I wonder if it might turn out to be possible to come up with some joke where someone explains they are “deeply sorry" for the "negative interaction between ________ and ________".

Millions of linux users around the world had their productivity crippled by #cloudstrike as they all rushed to read the news, post hot takes & dad jokes to their Mastodon feed.

@vmiklos Great, thanks a lot. For other surveillance suffering people, you can find the video on our (not yet officially open) #peertube in the mirrored channel: https://friprogramvarusyndikatet.tv/c/collabora_online_tech_talks

#Angiverilagen får mig att tänka på DDR, den hör inte hemma i en sund demokrati. Viktigt att vi offentligt anställda tar tydlig ställning mot detta.
Skriv under du med, och hjälp regeringen förstå att de är helt ute och cyklar i den här frågan.

🇬🇧 Is your government supporting #ChatControl? Do you want it to? Help change its position in time for the next vote later this year (it will be extremely tight)!
This is what you can do now to save privacy and encryption:

Det verkar som att Chat Control är på agendan igen:
"Chat control is back on the agenda of EU governments. They will discuss “progress” on 10/11 October and are to endorse it on 12/13 December."
Maila de svenska partierna som stöder Chat Control (S, M, L och KD) och fråga om varför de vill massövervaka alla helt utan brottsmisstanke
Take action to stop chat control now! – Patrick Breyer

Mina privata data känns inte supertrygga i Orbans EU-händer.
Släng Chat Control 2.0-förslaget i soptunnan och bränn det sedan!

Upptäckte att #sverigesradio inte längre erbjuder en rss feed för Sommar och Vinter i P1. Eftersom jag gärna lyssnar på episoderna i min podcatcher så skrev jag ett litet script som skapar en rss som borde funka med alla podcatchers:

Starting today, I am escalating my war against #google by adding a filter in #mastodon that auto-removes any posts with #youtube links from my feed.
For anyone in the habit of posting youtube links here:
- I recommend that you stop doing that. Post #PeerTube links instead, or whatever else, just not youtube (google).
- If you continue to post youtube links then I will not see those posts because of the filter I just added. Don't worry, I will still see your other posts.

#Purism offers now optional subscriptions to advance the development of PureOS. PureOS is also the default operating system for the #Librem5 #Linux #phone.
"PureOS will continue to be freely available for all, there is no product difference for subscribers or non-subscribers."
Purism has a long list of requests and never enough developer resources.
Subscribing enables @purism to invest more in #FOSS maintenance, innovations, and development.

Johan Linåker: "Report: Public Sector Open Source Program Offices - Archetypes for how to Grow (Common) Institutional Capabilities": https://www.linaker.se/blog/public-sector-open-source-program-offices/
"One of the main challenges is the limited knowledge within the public sector in terms of both what open source is, but also how it can be leveraged [...]"
We need to change that!

We've updated https://switching.software again!
For instance, we updated the description of @cryptpad, an easy to use yet powerful end-to-end encrypted replacement for #MS356, #GoogleDocs and unencrypted pads.

The new Swiss Open Source Law: "Public Money Public Code" by default
Matthias Stürmer, Rika Koch
Recording available here: https://media.fsfe.org/w/aQs7EbEUQGt4DP13SsqAJ7 - starting at about 2:31 in that video.
This is very good news: Switzerland has a new law that takes effect starting this year, saying that the Swiss public sector at national level shall publish source code for the software it develops or pays others to develop.
