It's finally time. After years of deliberation, #Minetest is finally ready to adopt a new identity and prove it has moved beyond its original purpose. We can finally move past the "mining" and the "testing" and focus on making this platform the best it can be.

Svar: Nej.
Kristersson går till historien som en vindflöjel som egentligen inte gjorde någonting, som aldrig agerade utan i bästa fall bata reagerade.
Jag kan inte erinra mig om en statsminister som varit så handfallen, konflikträdd och rent ut sagt menlös.

This weekend I'm planning to make my self hosted #snac live and hopefully I don't unintentionally DDoS my own fibre connection. It's running in a #Bastille jail on my #FreeBSD server Beastie. I still have some customisation to do with CSS for the theme but I'm just interested to see how much load this'll put on my FTTP 1G / 110Mb connection. If all goes well I may well migrate permanently to my own hosted #ActivityPub server ? 🤔 #HomeLab
@tdforg #TDF will coordinate #DocumentFreedomDay2025 and we, @fps_gbg, will contribute with a #DocumentLiberation workshop. BTW In case you did not know #DocumentLiberationProject is a sister project of @libreoffice . Busy in Luxembourg preparing #LibOCon and #CommunityDay, so more will follow.

@AliceStollmeyer Very good way of putting it. "too large a risk for our digital resilience" is a phrase that might actually be heard and understood by non-experts (like politicians) . Kudos to the dutch government-nerds! :)
Update: Netherlands' Intelligence agency advises:
#ChatControl is “too large a security risk for our digital resilience.”

6 October 1938 | An Italian Jewish boy, Carlo Polacco, was born in Genoa.
In December 1943 he was deported to #Auschwitz and murdered in a gas chamber.
Blown away by the finalists in #WikiLovesEarth. Being a jury member is really just a treat. #WLE
Det här är ju extremt! Hur kan vi ha ett samhälle där ett sådant här förslag läggs fram utan att det blir ramaskri?
Att konstant massövervaka och skanna den breda allmänheten är helt absurt. Sluta kom med sådana här förslag!

Today's project: tear-down of an old pump, trying to make it work again. It had been working fine for about 50 years, then stopped working last year. I think that had something to do with wasps building a nest in it and parts of that nest got pushed down which might have messed up the mechanism inside.
This is what we in Sweden call a "gårdstolva" - Gårdspump Nr. 12 🙂 #ShotOnLibrem5
I think this talk was two weeks ago at the 2024 Matrix Conference:
"Försäkringskassan, Matrix and Sweden’s public sector"
https://cfp.matrix.org/matrixconf2024/talk/NFCLDB/
"Försäkringskassan is using Matrix to create a cloud-based secure communications service called SAFOS (collaboration platform for the public sector) for Sweden’s public sector authorities."
Sounds interesting!
@matrix are there recordings of the conference talks available somewhere that can be watched afterwards?
