Just got back from @kde's #blueFriday and I must say, everything there is so cheap :blobcatderpy:

I got the Plasma desktop environment for free forever and I'm free to tweak it and modify it, it also doesn't spy on me

I got kdenlive, a professional-grade video editor also for free

I also got some games like Blinken and they're all incredibly fun

wait... they were always free

@strahlenschutz Wer würde im all die Menschen in Schulen, Krankenhäuser, Kindergärten und so weiter evakuieren? Private Busunternehmen? @deutschesHeer ? Wird so was eigentlich auch geübt?

@EUIPO Question: Does "Linking to a Library" consider Copyright Infringement?

Quoting the author is enough to use photos or music copyright protected? Who owns your work when you upload it to a platform?

Well, it depends. It depends on the work, the country, the plattform... so there's no short answer. Or not one that fits in a toot...so we have collected some by country.

@dsee @bfdi ! Im übrigen: Viele Instanzen werden ehrenamtlich betrieben.

@Bundespresseamt@social.bund.de Ich hab gelesen, dass das auch für Bücher gilt. Ich kenne einige Menschen, die sich darüber sehr freuen werden.

@catacosmosis @bruvik @ninawildflower I absolutely agree. He never was a member of the NSDAP, either. But from all the sources I have, he did not use his machine against the Nazis. He also got paid for the calculating machine, AKA computer (200.000 Reichsmark).

So, all in all, the Computer was not invented to combat the Nazis, however, many advances in Computer Science and Cryptography were indeed the result of the fight against the Nazis, as for example the ones by Alan Turing.

Wir gestalten unsere Städte so, dass man sie ohne ANC Kopfhörer kaum noch aushält.
Benzinbetriebene #Laubbläser , #Autos die an der Ampel noch mal richtig beschleunigen, hupen, …
Ohne Kopfhörer halte ich mir regelmäßig die Ohren zu, auf dem #Fahrrad einhändig -> gefährlich! Wie machen das Menschen, die auf einen Rollator angewiesen sind?

Jeder trottet vor sich hin und probiert, nichts von der Außenwelt mitzubekommen.
Wann fangen wir an, Städte wieder freundlich zu gestalten?

Seven years ago, a fellow named "MIDI_MAN" compiled 130,000 unique MIDI files by browsing a ton of sites, placing them into directories, and generally assembling years of MIDI music.

Now that collection (1gb compressed, 3.5gb uncompressed, 130,000 files for real!) is at the Internet Archive at this URL:
