  2. This week's Linux and FOSS news:

    LINUX NEWS

    elementaryOS dev announces to comply with California law to avoid fines:
    mastodon.online/@danirabbit/11
    (I mean, losing a source of income is a valid concern on her part, but it doesn't justify that she risks the privacy of the users. Even though she says in a reply that asking for ID is different, I wouldn't be so sure at this point that she won't consider implementing that too, just to stay in business)

    Fedora Project Leader Suggests Linux Distros Could Adopt Apple's Age Verification API:
    itsfoss.com/news/fedora-leader
    (Adopting a big tech corp's API? What the hell did he smoke? It's even worse than the Systemd stuff. I already had some trust issues with Fedora, but now it becomes pretty obvious, that they shouldn't be trusted)

    Devuan rejects compliance:
    xcancel.com/jaromil/status/203
    (Now this is great to see. I'm considering getting away from Systemd due to their attitude to comply, Devuan is the primary distro I consider, because it would let me keep the Debian base but get rid of Systemd at the same time)

    Slackware also rejects compliance:
    linuxquestions.org/questions/s
    (3 Systemd-free distros not complying at this point, there are quite a few distros to go to.)

    And ZorinOS too:
    forum.zorin.com/t/statement-ab
    (A really good summary of this whole age nonsense, a worthy read)

    And MX Linux also joins the camp:
    mxlinux.org/blog/mx-news-week-

    Kicksecure/Whonix changes plan, "unlikely" to comply, after user backlash:
    kicksecure.com/wiki/Age-api#st

    Inside the Systemd Age Verification Debate: Developer Responds to Criticism:
    itsfoss.com/dylan-taylor-syste
    (I think he isn't the one to blame here, but rather the Systemd project. If he didn't do it, someone else would do it. That's what we get from a corporate-backed project I guess. Harrassing him won't do anything, it's just naive, childish behavior.)

    Someone Forked Systemd to Strip Out Its Age Verification Support:

  4. Changez de PC (dixit Microsoft).
    La solution trouvée par Microsoft est simple : Achetez un nouvel ordinateur, l’actuel (s'il a plus de 3 ou 4 ans est bon pour la poubelle).

    Tous les ministères ou services publics sont concernés sauf la Gendarmerie Nationale qui depuis plus de 10 ans a choisi d’utiliser #Linux.

  5. Adieu Windows, bonjour le Libre !
    @aprilorg l’association pour la promotion et la défense des logiciels libres, lance une opération Adieu Windows, bonjour le Libre ! Si vous aussi, vous voulez être délivré·es, ou libérer vos proches, si vous ne voulez pas ou n’avez pas les moyens de passer à Windows 11, alors les systèmes libres s’offrent à vous. Vous pouvez en installer un de façon autonome, chez vous, mais si vous pensez avoir besoin d’aide, les bénévoles de très nombreuses associations se sont organisé·es pour vous recevoir et répondre à vos questions.

  6. Este fin de semana he estado experimentando en el rescate de dos #Apple #iMac 2009 que tenía usando con #MacOS #HighSierra ; pero que ya las tenía practicamente abandonadas.

    Se me ocurrió comprar la versión PRO de #ZorinOS y ver que tal se comportaban. Quedé gratamente sorprendido!

    La instalación fue muy sencilla, TODO funciona, cero problema con controladores, y pese a ser equipos Intel Core2duo, funciona de manera muy agil. (1/4)
