@dthompson I have not been able to reset my password there in like 10 years

Curious where the $16.50 on my self-published comic goes? I drew this to explain so you get an idea about the costs. #transparency (By the way, 955 books sold! 🎉 thank-you-thank-you-thank-you!)

I was inspired to expand this into a full article to give myself a bit more space to talk about the issues:

777 Books sold since the release two weeks ago! Thank you! 🎉 I hope you'll get the geek joke.( I'm not worrying a lot on Mastodon 😇 ). My 'Special Launch Offer' sale ends on Saturday 31, in three days. Will it reach 1000? That would be amazing. Last chance to get them while they're cheap!

Congratulations to Framasoft on the release of Mobilizon, a libre and federated tool to help local events and meetup groups escape the clutches of Facebook! u.fsf.org/36l

"note that the testing installer is more for testing the installer than for installing testing"

Thank you Debian, for that beautiful sentence.

@FiXato I don't think it's so clear. RIAA really wants so called contributory infringement to be exactly the same as actual infringement, but it isn't. Also not sure that YouTube is behind a technological protection measure.

@n8 I think we are planning a bit of a retrospective / where are we now soon. I think it still holds up well and deserves an iteration.

@brainwane It is coming, but I'd say a matter of months rather than weeks still. (Also, excited about the work!)

Important #LibrePlanet 2021 news: 1) the Call for Sessions deadline has been extended to November 11th, and 2) the conference will be held in March 2021 entirely online, opening it to participation from the entire (libre)planet! u.fsf.org/36e

Who inspires you in the world of free software? Let the world know: nominate them for a Free Software Award by November 11th! u.fsf.org/357

The Free Software Foundation (FSF) is looking for interns to spend the spring contributing to work in one of three areas: campaigns, licensing, or with our tech team. Apply by 11/11: u.fsf.org/36h

I already voted. Why am I still seeing commercials. Where is the AI we need.

I guess now would be a good time get that new FSF forge launched. Not that we won't also have to deal with DMCA-related notices, but I have a feeling our approach will be informed by a different set of values.
