It would be nice to install Debian or another Linux operating system on it, since TOS is proprietary.

Finally, I had time to break free from Spotify’s tight grip. My main use was for podcasts, so I set up self-hosted solution — using @nextcloud to host everything needed for the YourPods app on my phone and laptop: asecretcompany.com/yourpods/


A proud moment for open source! 🏅

Last week, @Karlitschek, CEO & founder of Nextcloud, received the Special Recognition for Contributions to Business & Impact Award 2026 from the @europeanOSacademy.

But this recognition goes far beyond one person. 💙

It belongs to the entire Nextcloud community, proving that open source is competitive, impactful, and key to Europe’s digital future.

@MistralAI
FOSS lover 100%, this is constructive criticism from a guy forced into an evilcorp stack at work: FOSS has nothing that can compete with Google and MS yet. I've tried but they're fragmented, non-integrated.

I process hundreds of emails a day and can do a ton of efficient powerful things from a single interface to manage/edits files, meetings, contacts, tasks and more.

The FOSS alternatives: frankly primitive in comparison. Lets catch up!!

in reply to TrimTab 🇺🇦

fragmented alternatives are the reason many people keep choosing centralized Big Tech platforms.

But we have an answer:

Overwatch returns on February 10th with the '2' gone and some massive upgrades gamingonlinux.com/2026/02/over…

#Overwatch #FPS #PCGaming

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

Translation:
We do a rebranding because we fucked up so phenomenally again and please please please, trust us, we won't screw it up once more, just one more Overwatch bro. Also please don't look up that other fan project. 🫣

I'm waiting for the fan project of bringing back the real Overwatch 1 again to be mature enough. Blizzard is about as trustworthy as any megacorp at this point, meaning not at all.

RPM
Deb
Mac and Windoze packages are available on Libreoffice.org

Why use Fathub and Fatpacks,

There is nothing faster to install than the Native Format.

On top Fatpack will not work at all on a number of extremely good systemd free distros.
.
Flatpak is a universal package format is incorrect, in many cases it also requires specific system lib versions and all to often lists sysd in depends..



Big news for open source & digital sovereignty 🚨

Nextcloud has been officially recognized by the @dpgalliance as a Digital Public Good.

Another strong signal that online collaboration doesn’t have to mean giving up user control or data sovereignty. 💪

I found this lovely old poster of Christchurch New Zealand!
in reply to Muse

Ah, Christchurch - we used utility turn off-turn-on records (late 1960's) to track people's housing movements around the city. Such was the world before privacy laws.

For some reason this image is up and down. I suspect this site doesn't want people being directed to their images in order to not have their servers overloaded.


Climate ‘fingerprints’ mark human activity from the top of the atmosphere to the bottom of the ocean


The world is warming. This fact is most often discussed for the Earth’s surface, where we live. But the climate is also changing from the top of the atmosphere to the bottom of the ocean. And there is a clear fingerprint of humanity’s role in causing these changes through greenhouse gas emissions, primarily from burning fossil fuels....

The “warming stripes” are one striking and simple way of visually highlighting the resulting variations in Earth’s surface temperature using shades of blue and red for cool and warm, with one stripe per year.

in reply to Muse

Poetry may be the best means of conveying the essential meaning of what is happening.
in reply to Muse

Here's one of my efforts:

Bees

There are a number of white clover patches blooming
on the lawn I am mowing
but no bees,
and there is a coral reef
off the coast but not much living there
today in Paris it is too hot to survive
yet odd traffic hums,
tourists are wide-eyed, as always
numb in wonder
Art, Art for God’s sake...
must survive
the end of the bees

Steam Machine & Steam Frame FAQ - RAM and storage crisis to blame for no pricing or dates gamingonlinux.com/2026/02/stea…

#SteamMachine #SteamFrame #SteamOS #Steam #Valve #PCGaming



I moved my #quartz64 NAS to my #minirack !

I designed (using #FreeCAD) a 100% custom shelf for the power supply, the SATA controller and the SBC and 3D printed it.

This is the very first time I design a 3D model! I don't even own a 3D printer! It's definitely not perfect, but I'm happy with the result so far!

If you're interested, here is a link to the previous build of this NAS : pine64.org/2022/06/03/my-diy-l…

I've found that Gemini also has great difficulty staying on track and maintaining a "conversation". It always seems to wander off the train of investigation and on to something related (but different).

Big tech is gambling the economy on AI… and wants a bailout for it


SoSoTheDestroyer : This is my dissection of the AI bubble, including why it's more fragile than most people think it is and why we might be headed for another financial crisis. Oh, and the billionaires want a bailout, because of course they do.


Sources Sited In This Piece

An Astute Summary By One of the Commenters on the Video:

"Remember, that the reason RAM prices have gone up such a large percent is because a massive amount of not-yet-manufactured memory was bought with money that doesn't really exist to be put into GPUs that haven't been made yet, to be installed in data centers that haven't all been built yet, powered by infrastructure that cannot support it sustainably, to satisfy a demand that isn't actually there, in order to generate profits that are mathematically impossible."

What about NO.! I use #LINUX at 100% . No need to downgrade to a AI slop vibe coded #windows . Anybody can upgrade to Linux for free. Why should one ever PAY for bad unsecure software again ? Make donations to FSF or other OSS organisations if you use it .
