I’ve updated my article on "Killing a Decentralised Network (Such as the #fediverse)" to include a link to the very important mail exchange between Meta and @kev .

Thanks Kev! You set a precedent where the only and sane way to react is to be open and transparent while they tried to take you in an "off-the-record" meeting.

We have only one weapon and it’s transparency. If we lose that one, we lose everything.

SFC's Policy Fellow, Bradley M. Kuhn, has written a comprehensive analysis of the situation with the #RHEL (#RedHat Enterprise #Linux) business model, and how it relates to the software rights & freedoms promised in the #GPL agreements.

The worst thing that ever happened in software engineering was when Kirk asked Scotty how long something would take and Scotty said thirty minutes and Kirk said you’ve got five and Scotty got it done in five and impressionable children watched this and grew up to become managers.

We're going to post something that isn't allowed on Twitter: a brief history of the term "cisgender"...

When #META invites you to secretive talks about the #fediverse and you are told to not share anything about those talks, be it by spoken agreement or an NDA — remember admiral Ackbar. It's a trap.

Yesterday, my friend's son turned four. They had his party at the lake. Since there wasn't really an address to share, my friend sent me the GPS coordinates.
I plugged them into Puremaps and it led me straight there while I was also listening to a podcast.
#mobilelinux and the #librem5 have come a long way.

A foreign journalist asked me: #Berlusconi funded #mafia for years, and yet he got #State funeral, national mourning, and your President of the Italian Republic,whose brother was killed by the mafia, attended his State Funeral. Why?
Me: don't ask, I have no answers for you

Haven't seen anyone posting this yet, so I figured I'll share it: during our recent #Gnome #mobileLinux hackfest we got the experimental #libcamera pipeline handler for the #purism #Librem5 to work and make a video call with @dino. There were still some serious issues we didn't have time to debug any more - but hey, it's something :) (featuring @cas )

The list keeps growing :)
