Hey @linuxfoundation here is a plan under #California law #AB1043:

Sell a standarized, audited compliance module (libagesignal) to corpos. Put an #opensource "Age Signal API" standard. Sell signed the binaries and certification.

I'll bet corpos will lobby the hell out the law.

A free and open-source rootkit for Linux

So, libxml2 developer fed up with the lack of commitment from Google, Red Hat and Amazon.

A library used by Chrome, Windows, macOS, iOS, Linux, and most tech stacks in the world: now abandoned.

Seems that the only way to force big corpo to care is to offer an AGPLv3 version and a commercial version.

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/issues/976

To me, that should be the base standard.

It's time guys, GNOME is good but...

...if you want GNOME to be great, there is a donation button that links to here:

https://donate.gnome.org/

I'll donate to GNOME any time of the day as long they don't spend 40% of the budget for inclusive bathrooms.

My FOSS laws:

1. You can ask, but not demand.
2. You can help, but not enforce.
3. You can critic, but not rant.
4. You can compare, but not disparage.
5. You can compete, but not sabotage.

That should be the guidelines for any FOSS discussion.

#tragedyOfTheCommons

While installing #freeCAD on this #ubuntuStudio LTE setup I realized again that the result of the commons are really tragic. After downloading and installing that #freeopensource program from the repo in a glimps of an eye, opening it for a first time my mind was confronted with a simple first page without popups, advertisement of more addons to buy or little dogs that jump around whipping with their tail.

I have to admit, I'm confused, my tictoc trained mind that can't concentrate for more than 45 seconds anymore has no clue what to do and went into kernel panic mode.

help!

I recommend to everyone that they contribute at least with data (if not able with donations as well) to @openstreetmap and/or @organicmaps

It is an absolute rush of euphoria and joy to see the map changing through your efforts! The almost "treasure-hunt" like experience of trying to find as much info about the place you are adding as possible is my favourite part though. Feels like active #OSINT work!

PSA: If you're someone who uses, creates or cares about #FOSS, free open source software, please be aware of the European Cyber Resilience Act. It could have dire consequences to the FOSS community. Here a video from @EclipseFdn about the CRA https://youtu.be/AmsM5_5QO5A and a post from #filezilla https://filezilla-project.org/cra.php
