Tons of names in my phone are "Kenny Landlord" or "Mike Electric" or "Pete Do Not Answer" and just realized this is how anglo surnames have always worked

Hey peeps! Do me a huge flavor? I moonlight with the immensely amazing Open Source Hardware Association, and we have a new baby mastodon account. Follow and share it? We know our folks are on here, and would love to reach them.

We have way too many patents as it is. The last thing we need are AI patent troll farms generating millions of trivial "inventions" then suing everyone actually building stuff.

ive got a few blog posts bookmarked, but can anyone recommend me writing on how for-profit companies abuse open source? specifically thinking about how they treat it like outsourced labor- relying on public labor for private profits, but other criticisms like patterns of EEE relevant too.

boosts welcome, want to make sure I cite the ppl who are writing abt this.

New phone who dis? It's real!
The #Librem5 is almost like the #PinePhone's big and slightly more specced up sibling - a Linux pocket computerbox bringing desktop covergence to a phone - and @purism has contributed most of the code that allows Gnome/Phosh/Linux on a phone to dynamically resize desktop apps. Happy to finally get mine and support this project! Purism got bodyslammed by supply chain issues during the pandemic and is now catching up on shipping ❤️ See https://puri.sm/

The new Food Code recognizes that food from retailers can be OK for donation

This treatment in the Food Code is part of the Biden Administration’s National Strategy on #hunger, #nutrition, and #health .
