Going through backlog in podcasts and had an old Changelog episode mentions the Free as in Freedom ( FaiF ) podcast. If you're interested in FLOSS licensing ( or FLOSS in general ) and haven't listened to FaiF you should grab the back catalog and listen to it
Changeloggers mentioned Karen having been on the show in the past
I episode down, two episodes added to queue :)
https://changelog.com/podcast/424 <-- FaiF mention

Una pena no poder utilizar #Claude Code para que te escriba el código de #Direct3D porque en #Microsoft no son tontos y no han querido dar acceso para entrenar #LLMs con el código de su software [1]. Pero para fusilar código #copyleft no hay problema, ¿eh?

"FOSS is the best method we have to democratize technology and its algorithms.. users never really know what data is collected about them, ..how the software manipulates that data.. The primary reasons that sites like TikTok are so toxic is inherent in their business model: privacy-unfriendly data gathering to sell targeted advertising.. Transparent technology leads the only way to the truth in our software-controlled world." https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2025/jan/18/usa-should-require-bytedance-to-open-source-tiktok/ #tiktok #foss #freedom #sfconservancy #tech

Good news, everyone! There's now a path for enforcing the GPL even if you're not the explicit copyright holder!
https://sfconservancy.org/news/2025/jan/09/avm-copyleft-lawsuit-resolved-with-install/
The below quote is from an email I received, not in the press release above, but is extremely good news:
>This successful lawsuit confirms that anyone can enforce their copyleft rights; copyright holders don’t shoulder the burden alone! Until now, the promise of copyleft has been empty for many people. I have dedicated myself to changing that because users deserve the right to modify and reinstall the software on their devices. Manufacturers are powerful, and when they violate copyleft, most users have little recourse and limited options. **But this case opens the doors for everyone** to pursue the rights copyleft promises — through their own efforts. **We are on the cusp of a future where people can freely modify and adapt their devices to do what they want, either by themselves, or with the help of a friend or contractor**. Your donations keep this trajectory going. I hope that excites you as much as it excites me!

We ran out of free #GitLab #CI minutes this month and I've just had to fix a linking error in #inkscape main caused by not having code compiled before being merged.
This is a good and bad sign. We're hitting the limits of the resources the project has at it's disposal because our activity this month has been very high with the paid #Gtk4 migration work.
Some of the new code from our contract workers is looking really good by the way. Lots of valuable cleanup along with fixing the core issues with the upgrade.

I was trying to remember why I stopped donating to #sfconservancy and then remembered: it’s because there is no way for me to give them money except through PayPal.

The Internet turned 50 today, explains the arthritis we've been seeing recently
https://medium.com/ucla-magazine/lo-and-behold-f3aebb382421?sf215577683=1
At this age it's important to stretch and exercise ( #ActivityPub #Fediverse ), actively supplement ( #EFF #SFConservancy ) and remember to have fun ( #PepperAndCarrot )

Bradley Kuhn asks If Open Source Isn't Sustainable, Maybe Software Freedom Is? in his #SCaLE17x at 13:30 in Ballroom H

@ahangarha started to answer, but really, check out what Bradley and Karen have to say, they're more knowledgeable than me
Also, I highly recommend the #FaiF #oggcast
