@luminos And I still want to see a network of cooperatives across Europe where Open Source developers can work together to create better solutions AND earn a living. Such an obvious thing to do, really, and so much more a practical approach than foundations.

Huh. So Ronald Lauder, the billionaire who owns Estee Lauder, is apparently the guy who convinced Trump that he should destroy NATO by invading Greenland.

Maybe don't buy shit from them? Here's a convenient list of their brands: https://www.elcompanies.com/en/our-brands

Really, the only thing you need to know about Google's agentic #AI #Chrome "Auto Browsing" feature is that #Google says YOU are responsible for all actions the agentic AI takes on your behalf.

That's the whole ballgame. Right off the cliff. Don't touch it. Don't use it. Don't get anywhere near it.

The government’s arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are naked attacks on freedom of the press.

Two federal courts flatly rejected prosecuting Lemon, but instead of accepting that humiliating defeat, the government has now doubled down.

Must see from @euronews:

"Fact check: Is the EU launching a social media platform called 'W'?"

🔗 : https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2026/01/29/fact-check-is-the-eu-launching-a-social-media-platform-called-w

"A spokesperson for the European Commission told The Cube, Euronews' fact-checking team, that the EU is not launching or funding any social media platform, and that there is currently no EU-backed project called "W".

[...] W is a privately owned social media start-up incorporated in Sweden, backed by private investors mainly from the Nordic region."

Packing for #FOSDEM 🥳

I have so many items of clothing promoting the Fediverse that I could change outfits multiple times a day 😂

If anyone is interested in a forest green sweatshirt that says "the future is federated" (size small, unisex) let me know. I had it remade (comped) because v1 came out differently than my mockup.

I'll have it with me tomorrow, just ask.

See you around! I'm sooo exciteeeeeed

Department of the Unlikely:

If anyone wants to sell a couple of tickets to the World Baseball Classic game on 8 March in Tokyo, I'm interested. DM please.

American jews apply for German passports to escape the Trump regime.

Let that sink in.

Does anyone know a way to donate (online) to a Democratic candidate without going through Act Blue? I don't trust it anymore.

Please don't tell me why I should trust Act Blue. For me, that ship has sailed.

This is about alternatives.
