We've raised over $25,000 in just the first week thanks to your support and the matching funds from the Friends of Tor! 👏👏

Let's keep the momentum going and reach our goal. Share the news and spread the word to help us get there!

Our Friends of Tor are still matching each donation 1:1, up to $5,000. That means if you donate $25 now, the Friends of Tor will match your gift by donating $25, doubling your impact to a total of $50.

in reply to The Tor Project

As a project focusing on privacy it's surprising you want home address and email to be able to donate. Was going to donate but that didn't feel right.


Humble Choice for May is stacked with STAR WARS: Bounty Hunter, The Thaumaturge, Amnesia: The Bunker and more gamingonlinux.com/2025/05/humb…

I can't believe it. I've been looking for a great FLOSS dashboard for my browser. And it turns out the one I've been looking for is Renewed Tab by @rubenwardy: renewedtab.com/en/

@rubenwardy is also a lead dev of @Luanti and hosts my kids' favorite game server, Capture the Flag: content.luanti.org/packages/ru…

Thank you for your amazing work!

in reply to Nathan Schneider

If you don't mind, a couple feature requests:

- Load a local text file into a widget (I'd love to be able to display my Markdown-structured to-do list)
- A widget for Firefox's Pocket recommendations (which I kinda love even tho I use @wallabag rather than Pocket)

in reply to Nathan Schneider

I LOVE how the search bar works both for searching content on the dashboard and for web search! So clever.

I wrote a book. It’s called Drystone – A Life Rebuilt.

If you like:

Non-Fiction (but make it literary)

Stone (but as metaphor too)

Feminism (but quiet and feral)

Men (but as minor characters)

Land (but not romanticised)

Motherhood (but honest)

Then congratulations, this very good book is for you.

Well, went to the doctor because I was concerned about some symptoms. They felt they should send me to the hospital to get some tests where it is free (as opposed to the offices of a specialist). We arrive there just after four. Eight hours later we make some interesting discoveries that will require more investigation. Driving home at 1am we passed by the side of the road a fox, then a bunny, then kangaroos at two different points. Finally, we had to swerve around a wombat. What a night!
in reply to Muse

@muse - I think I must have been transformed into bacon or a smoked ham: Both of my parents smoked a lot (I'm pretty sure it contributed to the death of my father, my mother is still going reasonably well at 96). My Los Angeles grandparents smoked (but not around us kids). And I grew up in the worst smog area of LA.

in reply to It's FOSS

I do not agree. Is not about GNU/Linux... It is about the market of hardware unruled for pre-installed software. In my country it is almost impossible to buy a computer without Windows or Mac pre-installed. If you ask for none OS installed, simply there are any discounts.
in reply to It's FOSS

Linux won't be widely adopted if there's isn't enough market shares.

It was kind of a nightmare upgrading from 29 to 30, but I managed to save my setup without restarting from scratch 😂 . BTW I always upgrade when the oldest stable is EOL
in reply to Nextcloud 📱☁️💻

An update is installed at the earliest after the first patch following a major update. However, I usually also wait until the most necessary third-party apps have received a compatibility update.

Security updates within a version are of course installed immediately.



As another treat presented by A MAZE. / Berlin, the performance Sons and True Sons by Total Refusal takes place at HAU 👾

The Viennese media guerrilla group examines the links between toxic masculinity, gaming culture and the 2021 US Capitol storming. In a live gaming lecture, they scrutinise the parallels between the video game Tom Clancy's: The Division 2 (2016) and real-life extremist movements – and highlight the dangers of hyper-masculine self-empowerment.

Will EU data transfers to the US clouds become risky? 🌩️

We have entered an age of uncertainty, and even the legal safeguards meant to protect our privacy, like EU-US Data Privacy Framework, are growing weaker. Join us as we explore the solutions.

in reply to It's FOSS

Thank you very much #OSUOSL for your important work so far. But sorry to say, imo the best would be to move the services to outside the USA. USA is not a reliable region anymore for hosting free and opensource services.

in reply to It's FOSS

internxt also has a cloud service that "works" on Linux. It is a bit rubbish, though 😒

my first ever pull request to the #rust language has been merged! 🎉

github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull…

it's a documentation change to clarify how async blocks behave in regards to control flow. there was only one requested change, so i did a pretty good job of matching the tone and style of the other docs.

it was really easy to contribute once i found out how to use x.py. strangely enough, there doesn't seem to be an enforced line length limit (at least not for this section of the docs) so i just matched what the surrounding text was doing.

coincidentally, the contributor who reviewed my code is the same person who made the papaya crate i reported a memory safety bug in a month or two ago.

my changes are scheduled to land in rust 1.88, which should release on the 26th of june!

#Rust


Beatrix Potter is best remembered for her charming tales of Peter Rabbit, but did you know she also studied #science?

Potter collected & examined beetles, butterflies, plants, bird eggs, shells, rocks, fossils & especially fungi. She conducted experiments & wrote a scientific paper with her own illustrations, presented at the Linnean Society of London. However, as a woman in the Victorian era, she couldn’t even attend the meeting.#history #art #books
