🔍 Πώς αναγνωρίζεις ένα AI-generated security report;

Ο Daniel Stenberg εξήγησε στο #FOSDEM2026 γιατί το curl ανέστειλε το bug bounty του και κατέγραψε τα σημάδια που προδίδουν ένα πλαστό report: από τα fake GDB sessions ως τα bullet-point bonanzas.

It might be a bit late, I finally took the time to replace the shell of my pinecil.
I got a free new one when visiting the @pine64 stand during #FOSDEM2026
Many thanks to them!

Missed FOSDEM this year? No problem!

@RosannaSibora This presentation is fantastic. Perhaps the best one of #fosdem2026

@Luigi311 thanks you for sharing. I'd never heard of jmap before and I have fought with caldav and carddav in the past. Watching the talk now.

At #FOSDEM2026, the CRA in Practice DevRoom showed how developers, maintainers, foundations, & manufacturers are turning the EU #CRA into workflows, powered by open collaboration, practical tooling, and community-driven processes.

👉 Recap: https://openssf.org/blog/2026/02/17/eu-cyber-resilience-act-cra-in-practice-fosdem-2026-from-awareness-to-action/

FOSDEM: ho impiegato tanto tempo a far sedare l'energia che mi ha portato. Ho riscritto questo articolo almeno 10 volte per renderlo il meno appassionato possibile. Mi sono arresa, non mi è possibile.
Avrei voluto parlare delle persone incontrate, delle tecnologie accarezzate, del mio reclutamento (immeritato) nel team delle "Debian Women". E degli adesivi, della guerra dei badge e dei waffle con cui ho voluto cenare.

A volte è meglio aspettare le parole.

My #FOSDEM2026 talk recordings are up!

I've been working for the past few months on developing a "theory of voluntary security attestations" -- building on the outlines drawn by #CyberResilienceAct's Article 25, I think there is an opportunity for many #OpenSource projects/communities to become sustainably funded as a result of this new EU cybersecurity regulation.

Talk #1: 20-minute explainer
https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/PTHENV-sustaining-foss-with-attestations/

Talk #2: 40-minute panel with the public sector
https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/U9JFC8-sustaining-foss-a-panel-with/

But there are still a lot of unknowns for me, for all of us ...

So! If you want to get involved, help figure this out, join the Matrix channel -- #oss-attestations:fosdem.org

Just caught up on this great talk at @fosdem #FOSDEM2026 from the people at @dangerzone about how to create reproducible containers images (with docker or podman) Definitely a few gotchas in there and stuff I wasn't aware with, but I have been wondering about this topic recently:
https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/RYM8SF-repro-build/

Watched @pid_eins #fosdem2026 presentation record about #Varlink. I think the idea is good, except it should use some binary protocol for communication between services. RFC 8949 #CBOR seems like excellent candidate. Text serialization is not necessary if human is never direct part of a pipeline. Data conversion is not slow, but not necessary between localhost- only services.

Du hast verpasst, wie wir auf der FOSDEM 2026 in Brüssel über Mail & Security gesprochen haben? Kein Problem – unser Vortrag ist als Video online und du findest ihn jetzt auch in unserem Expertise-Blog.

Schau vorbei und erfahre von unseren Mailserver-Profis mehr über ihre gesammelte Mail-Erfahrung und über spannende Tools.

Also, do you have a syllabus and bibliography for your class? I'd love to read it!

We were happy to be present in the "Modern Email" devroom at @fosdem!

Email is the workhorse of digital communication and it is important to keep our implementations up to date and interoperable.

Benjamin Broersma (@forumstandaardisatie) gave a talk on email configuration, highlighting some useful testing tools, and common config errors.

The video recording is now available at https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/H9GEBT-fos-check-tooling-for-mail-config/.

Enjoy watching, and questions are welcome!

Wow. That shit is terrible: so a friend organized this spontaneous, friendly, DIY, mutual aid booth within the ULB during FOSDEM.

In a few hours, they got evicted by someone from the official staff of the conference. What the fracking flooding fuck? I'll add more details after.

I am back from FOSDEM. This was quite a ride! And of course the last leg was the train 🚄 + bike 🚲 combo. My bike was waiting for me safely at the amazing Gare du nord bike parking, just 3 minutes away from the platform 🤩
