    Remember when everyone was excitedly babbling about how #Xen was the future? Then #Citrix bought them, and now you hardly ever hear a #FLOSS discussion that includes Xen (or Citrix #Hypervisor).

    #TIL: "MNT Reform":{https://mntre.com/media/reform_md/2020-05-08-the-much-more-personal-computer.html} [mntre com]. Ars Technica's review lets me know that I'm not really in the target audience (I can't spend USD$1,300 to USD$1,500 on something that can't even match a RasPi 4's performance), even though I'm very much interested in all the things they seem to be targeting.

    That said, I'd buy one if I had that sort of money to throw around.

    Thank you everyone for your feedback on #WoodpeckerCI. Now it's time to turn your feedback into reality. If you got some free time, please have a look upstream at github.com/woodpecker-ci/woodp… and see if you can support the project.

    While we are no longer looking for more alpha testers right now, feel free to still request access if you want to try it out or if your #FLOSS projects benefits from a CI service: codeberg.org/Codeberg-CI/reque…

    @musicman That I don’t know how many of them are #FLOSS, but tossing “Java thread dump analyzer” into DDG got me a few different products, including one by IBM and one by Spotify.

    @musicman If I recall correctly, it is designed to prevent companies using SSPL licensed software to generate (substantial) profit, instead driving them to purchase a proprietary commercial license instead.

    Think about how this would affect Amazon, Microsoft, Google, CenturyLink, and other large cloud hosting providers. This isn’t targeted at people like me, who spin up a server at home and run #MongoDB, #Redis, and similar services in a non-profit manner.

    (I sympathize with companies who sponsor #FLOSS projects and find that the largest corporations in the world reap the benefit, but contribute little or nothing to the ongoing development and maintenance of the software. But going fake-open [“fauxpen”] is a case of the cure being worse than the disease.)

    Heute ist I <3 FreeSoftware Day https://ilovefs.org, und deshalb erst einmal meinen herzlichsten Dank an all die vielen netten Menschen die in ihrer Freizeit kleine und große Dinge an #FreeSoftware machen. Danke an all die fleißigen Menschen die Übersetzungen anfertigen, Dokumentationen schreiben in Foren und Mailinglisten helfen Probleme zu lösen. Ohne euch wäre diese schöne #FLOSS Bubble nicht möglich. Danke dafür!1!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

    https://ilovefs.org

    Insbesondere sind mir im vergangenen Jahr ganz viele kleine und große Werkzeuge ans Herz gewachsen ohne die es für mich sehr viel schwerer wäre... und ich vergesse wahrscheinlich weit mehr als die Hälft

    • khal, khard, vdirsync, radicale, nextcloud, seafile, dokuwiki um Kalender, Kontakte und Dateien in der eigenen Cloud verwalten.
    • Jitsi, BigBlueButton, NextCloud Talk, mumble, XMPP + Dino & conversation, Matrix + Element, IRC und XChat, Sylpheed, Friendica und den Rest des Fediverses um mit Menschen zu kommunizieren, manchmal wird es etwas viel, aber lieber etwas zu viel als gar nicht.
    • ASCIIDoctor, LaTeX, pandoc (manche Leute mögen die PDFs nicht die beim ASCIIDoctor raus kommen, sondern wollen lieber docx haben), vim, geany, git, fossil, wkhtmltopdf, pdfgrep, evince ... und noch ganz viele andere für diesen Office Krams, vergessen wir nicht gimp und xsane zum einscannen und bearbeiten einiger Dinge.
    • bash, fish, ssh, mc und all the anderen Tools für den Alltag auf der CLI.
    • nitter, invideous, OpenStreetMap und so für die _alternativen_ Dienste zu den etablierten Platzhirschen.
    • music123, mpv, libreelec, kodi und den youtube-dl um für Unterhaltung drum herum zu sorgen.
    • Und natürlich nicht zu vergessen firefox, lxqt für das grafische Interface zum Desktop und dieser ominösen Wolke namens Internet.


    Danke! Insbesondere an jene, deren Projekte ich jetzt nicht aufgeführt habe, die aber die Projekte die ich da benutze überhaupt erst möglich machen weil sie Funktionalitäten zur Verfügung stellen die ansonsten einfach fehlen ;-)

    So und jetzt geh ich erstmal in den Park um ein bisschen frische Luft zu tanken.

    Seeing some grumbles about #Hacktoberfest, a #DigitalOcean sponsored event that is meant to increase code contributions to #FLOSS projects. https://joel.net/how-one-guy-ruined-hacktoberfest2020-drama?fave-superhero=tinky%20winky explains part of why it is more controversial this year.

    By the way, it appends guid and DeviceID fields to the URL, so make sure to trim off the tracking if you post the link.

    New essay: Seven theses on the Fediverse and the becoming of FLOSS

    Recently, @rra and I have been working on an essay highlighting questions about the #Fediverse and how these are getting entangled with #FLOSS practices. From software production to structure and governance within alternative social media, online communities and politics.

    The text follows a multi theses model, to map the different things we've been looking at and publish the current state of our research.

    It is the closing chapter of a new publication from INC/Transmediale (https://networkcultures.org/blog/publication/the-eternal-network)

    PDF of the text: https://monoskop.org/images/c/cc/Mansoux_Aymeric_Abbing_Roel_Roscam_2020_Seven_Theses_on_the_Fediverse_and_the_Becoming_of_FLOSS.pdf

    Feedback welcome. We're planning to publish an online version with more references!

    I've been thinking that working on marketing for libre projects would be awesome!

    Is there anyone on the fediverse I could talk to about getting a leg into that industry?

    And I'm not talking about just drawings and illustrations but graphics, photoediting and videos, and finally ideas / marketing strategies.

    I think I could be a great asset to projects out there.

    Please share!
