  1. In 2023, in preparation for the holidays, I designed and soldered about 20 small tree 🎄 PCBs to give to my relatives. This year, I cleaned it up and published it as an open-source hardware project: github.com/IamPhytan/christmas.

    This project was made with free and software:

    - @FreeCAD for the outline
    - @inkscape for the art
    - @kicad :kicad: for the board design
    - @platformio_org for programming

  2. Here's a praise to @BAPearlmutter (if I got this right) for #DiffPDF, saving me lots of time when reviewing contractual revisions.

    #FreeOpenSourceSoftware #FOSS ftw.

  3. 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 , 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 youtu.be/AmsM5_5QO5A and a post from filezilla-project.org/cra.php
