Got mapping and Linux mobile focused grant application out of the door.

Would be really cool if we get it approved, beyond the grant itself it would probably let us move plenty of workflows away from Android over time.

Nu rapporterar även SVT om forskningen om att socmed kan göras mindre splittrande. Mastodon och Bluesky nämns som alternativ

"För första gången har forskare lyckats visa att bara ordningen på flödet i våra sociala medier räcker för att öka den politiska splittringen i samhället. Men det finns en ljusglimt.

– Det är ingen naturlag att sociala medier måste splittra oss – och det finns alternativ, säger digitala experten Carl Heath på Rise."

This story should be covered waaaaayy more than it is.

The US has sanctioned six judges if the international criminal court ICC, because Trump didn’t like them issuing arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu and former Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant.

I Godmorgon världen i morse kritiserade jag och Henrik Jalalian hårt de marknadsmisslyckanden - nittiotalets avregleringar - som orsakar vanvettet både på elmarknaden och skolmarknaden.

Har skrivit ett blogginlägg om att byta till Linux! :D https://autonomin.fritext.org/det-stora-linuxinlagget/

I did not really know @panoramax before today.

"Panoramax is a digital resource for sharing and using field photos. Anyone can take photographs of places visible from public roads and contribute them to the Panoramax database. This data is then freely accessible and reusable by all."

#OnThisDay, 28 Nov 1967, Jocelyn Bell Burnell discovers the existence of pulsars.

Not included in the 1974 Nobel prize for the discovery, Bell received a £3m prize for her work in 2018. She's used it to set up a foundation to improve the diversity in STEM.

All is not lost. Today I had a class of master students in human geography that readily accepted and appreciated they cannot use genAI and that realized the value of topical encyclopedias hitherto unknown to them with positive surprise and thankfulness.

I just noticed: after starting my little link "blog" or collection back on June 1st, as of today it has now grown to 150+ links! 🔗

My reason for starting it was two-fold: I thought some folks could be interested in following along with what I read (that's why you can also subscribe via #rss). But, it's also a really useful archive for myself!

Hey Sweetie, found your glasses!

Nu är det lite snabba puckar här. Jag ska på Per Anderssons show Kardborreshowen ikväll kl 20 på Draken Live i Göteborg. Min sambo som skulle med har blivit sjuk. Så du kan få en gratis biljett! Meddela mig kvickt om du vill hänga på!

Humanity really needed librarians to own Internet Search, not venture capitalists.

Access to a non-billionaire owned and authoritarian-proof social network is self-defence.

Today Mastodon became one of the open source projects I donate to. They're simply that important.

Together with @forgejo, we will have a presence at #FOSDEM 2026! (Thanks @fosdem!)

FOSDEM will take place in Brussels between 2026-01-31 and 2026-02-01—it is the largest European conference on free and open-source software and the admission is free (as in beer).

Just like last year's FOSDEM, we will be running a stand, exchanging stickers and having delightful conversations. If you find anyone wearing a badge of either project's logo, feel free to say hi. :D
