Cute pumpkin.

BWT, since it is nearly Halloween, check out this video (a 'climbing competition' to make fun of the Donald's wall, using some animation software I wrote).

Warning: don't let the kiddies dress up as ET: in the film ET didn't bother getting a visa.

just in case it affects anyone, if you try creating a new profile (about:profiles), the browser crashes.





I tell you it is a special feeling when you open your morning newsletters and see an amazing former student like Claire Woodcock telling much needed library stories at the great @404mediaco: 404media.co/libraries-scramble…

there are serious issues with running #mswindows

I would say this was a great way by #microsoft to make people to switch to Linux

We're finally moving our company infra from Google Workspaces to @nextcloud hosted in Germany.

Oh man.

There's a lot these people need to do to make this attractive offer to a majority of companies. Everything is half-working.

We're paying for the business solution and hosting. The costs are almost Google level. But the product is so damn far away in polish.

We, as in Europe, are now paying for letting the US companies to lock us in. It'll take a lot of work to rid ourselves from them.

Did you think about writing a blog post or a video about this? I'd really love to know more about it (probably also people at @nextcloud )

Have you been noticing the flurries of new or returning people leaving Bluesky due to recent controversies?

It got me thinking about how a real Bluesky exodus would play out, and digging into the studies of the 2022 Mastodon migration from Twitter. I found 14 studies. TLDR; a Bluesky flight would be different.

‘I want my daughter to see a strong, free mother’: Iranian women keep hope alive with daily acts of resistance


"Three years ago, protests erupted across Iran after the death of Mahsa Jina Amini, a 22-year-old woman who had been arrested by the morality police for not wearing her hijab properly.

"The Islamic Republic cracked down harshly on these protests, driving the Woman, Life, Freedom movement underground. Yet, Iranian women continue to resist in various ways every day, keeping the spirit of the movement alive."



Two new (hopefully) useful additions to #Phosh's quick settings: There's now a (optional) location service toggle to enable / disable location services (contributed by @gauthamx) and the caffeine quick setting can now automatically disable itself after a given period of time (contributed by @rudraps). The possible timer intervals will become configurable in mobile settings at some point.

Infraestructuras del cuidado: Archipiélago I y el sentido político de la internet libre.

#entrevista "Las personas detrás de las tecnologías que queremos":

Conversar con quienes integran @archipielago es asomarse a una comunidad que habita lo digital de otro modo: desde la horizontalidad, la colaboración y la ternura política, piensan el código como una herramienta de transformación, pero también como un gesto poético que conecta memorias, territorios y saberes.

Minecraft Java modding is about to get a lot easier and more interesting gamingonlinux.com/2025/10/mine…

#Minecraft

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

I really think Microsoft will eventually be getting rid of Java. People often talk about how Bedrock was renamed to just “Minecraft” and Java to “Minecraft: Java Edition,” I think it does tell something. But again, if they stop maintaining Java, I’m probably just staying on the last version, because I’ll literally not be able to play newer versions anyways (I’m on Linux). Just look at Minecraft “golden age” players and you’ll see that this isn’t that unfeasible. Still, it sucks.
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

let's be optimistic, maybe they're embracing the java edition fully as now a phone "can run" their versions IF some modder do they work and translate their GL calls to GLES, also their Xbox pass is now on a bad time

LXDE could also do with some love.
It is pretty good on Fedora but most other places is is bare bones or in a terrible state, like Ubuntu 24.04.

It was fantastic when it was Lubuntu's default and it still has many use cases for light or old devices and amateur servers.
