Jeden współtworzył firmę która poniekąd zniewoliła większość komputerów.
Drugi określił Linuksa rakiem i sprawił że większość smartfonów pracuje pod niewolnymi systemami.
Trzeci sprawił że firma zarabia miliardy, ale sprawia że niedługo zamiast komputerów będziemy mieli terminale do obsługi komputerów w chmurze, bimba sobie na jakąkolwiek prywatność oraz sprawił że AI w przyszłości może być zniewolona i sprawić nam nadzór o jakim Orwellowi się nie śniło.

Wczoraj stuknęło 50 lat Microsoftowi - każdy czwarty kwietnia w społeczności Linuksa powinien być Dniem Instalacji Nowego Systemu.

Boję się myśleć na co wpadnie następca Nadelli...

Dear #OpenSource folks, I'd like to offer #UX help to your teams. I've tried "making a small PR" on projects and it turns out that's TERRIBLE advice for a UX designer. The PR is usually misunderstood or ignored. I don't fault the teams for this! It's just the wrong tool for the job.

So I'm trying something different. I'm offering free consulting time to any project that wants it. Sign up here: https://cal.com/scottjenson/exchange

New on // foss.events: preCICE Workshop by preCICE team on 08-12 September 2025 in Helmut-Schmidt Universität Hamburg in #Hamburg, #Germany

Find out more on https://foss.events/2025/09-08-precice-workshop.html

Official hashtag(s): #preCICE2025

Call for participation is running until 31.05.2025

I'm currently migrating my #OpenSource projects from #GitHub to #Codeberg and I have to say I'm impressed.

+ Codeberg web interface is much (!) faster and more responsive compared to GitHub
+ Git clone and push feel about twice as fast as GitHub (not that it matters much)
+ Much cleaner interface than GitHub, less bloat and less featuritis
+ Codeberg activity overview is very helpful and well organized
+ Codeberg migration tool works well

Note: the OSS git software that Codeberg runs is called Forgejo.

#Pixelfed and other #Fediverse platforms like #Mastodon were just mentioned on German television (ZDF) :

Trump and his new big tech autocracy: Trump, Musk & Co are trying to dismantle the state at high speed. A culture war has broken out. Is democracy in danger?

How dangerous is this and what can Europe do to counter it? Will the EU's democratic rules stand up to the superiority of US big tech?

The latest proprietary #VSCode extension that no longer works in non-Microsoft builds of the MIT licensed VS Code source code appears to be C and C++ support.

Your regular reminder: every day more of VSCode functionality is proprietary, and increasingly #FOSS hostile.

Umfrage zur Linux Installation!

Ich möchte herausfinden, wie die Community die Benutzerfreundlichkeit von Linux einschätzt. In dieser Umfrage geht es darum, verschiedene Aspekte der Benutzerfreundlichkeit zu bewerten, darunter die Installation, die Benutzeroberfläche, die Verfügbarkeit von Software und die allgemeine Lernkurve. Eure Meinungen sind wichtig, um ein besseres Verständnis dafür zu bekommen, wie Linux im Vergleich zu anderen Betriebssystemen wahrgenommen wird. Ich freue mich auf eure Antworten und darauf, die vielfältigen Perspektiven zu diesem spannenden Thema zu hören!

Fangen wir mit dem ersten Punkt an:

Wie einfach oder schwierig war die Installation von Linux für euch im Vergleich zu anderen Betriebssystemen?

Our team explains Thundermail and Thunderbird Pro
(what are they? why develop them?), the values behind them, and why the core desktop and mobile apps will never be behind a paywall. Read more and get the facts beneath the hype: https://blog.thunderbird.net/2025/04/thundermail-and-thunderbird-pro-services/

When paired with the Blur My Shell extension on GNOME Shell, Tauon 8.0 looks seriously slick https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/04/tauon-8-0-app-update-transparent-linux
