Really @ngisargasso, do I have to subscribe to your news letter through LinkedIn. What about #DigitalSovereignty?

That's a headline of the day right there.

Note on #AI - "Artificial" doesn't mean "human substitute" - it *always* means "Fake"

I'm using a #Librem5 as my daily phone. Yesterday, I discovered that in the #Railway #GNOME app for public transportation planning, you can set #transitous as the routing engine. This works pretty well in the #Netherlands. Highly recommended. Of course you can install it also on your regular Linux computer.

When he’s not busy being one of our best fiction writers, Ted Chiang has become our best critic of generative AI:

“The programmer Simon Willison has described the training for large language models as ‘money laundering for copyrighted data,’ which I find a useful way to think about the appeal of generative-A.I. programs: they let you engage in something like plagiarism, but there’s no guilt associated with it because it’s not clear even to you that you’re copying.”

The #Transitous integration in #GNOME maps is just great. Instantly turned maps from being unusable here in Vancouver BC to my preferred maps app!

Jag har insett att jag kommer att behöva någon form av #RSS-läsare om jag ska klara av att sluta använda Facebook. Tror att #CommaFeed eller #Feedbin kan vara vettiga alternativ, någon som har provat dessa som har något att säga? Eller har ni kanske andra tips? Tar emot allt jag kan få, har inte använt RSS-läsare på väldigt väldigt länge.

We have been collecting priority missing items for using a GNU/Linux OS on smart phones for daily driving for a few days now.

We had an #XMPP group as well https://xmpp.link/#debphoshfund@chat.disroot.org?join

which is now bridged to #Matrix https://matrix.to/#/#debphoshfund:fortysixandtwo.eu

Some people were reluctant to join codema.in so you might want to join via XMPP or Matrix to get updates, though polls would still happen via codema.in (tracking this in multiple places would be too much work).

Are you also concerned about the @EUCommission decision to cut the funding for #FreeSoftware projects?

Write a letter to the editor of your local newspaper 🗞️ to make their readers aware of the importance of funding #FreeSoftware solutions with a long-term sustainable funding:

#Wayland #inputmethod team GO!

I assembled a team to continue work I started for #mobilelinux with #phosh , #squeekboard and #librem5 .

We're going to finish the mobile side of screen-based input, and also try to properly bring traditional input methods (like for Chinese) to Wayland.

Thanks @nlnet for providing the motivation.
