Ready to run impactful webinars but unsure how to get started? ๐Ÿค”

From setting up your environment to moderating a live session, hereโ€™s everything you need to know about hosting webinars in Nextcloud Talk:

nextcloud.com/blog/host-webinaโ€ฆ

in reply to Nextcloud ๐Ÿ“ฑโ˜๏ธ๐Ÿ’ป

This blog post doesn't mention Nextcloud Talk's "High-Performance Backend" at all, so it's a mixed message. Is the HPB needed, or not?

Also, when will this code be integrated with the default Nextcloud Talk app by default, so additional installation and maintenance is no longer needed for basic app functionality?

Vibe coding on Linux? These 7 editors won't disappoint. ๐Ÿ”ฅ

itsfoss.com/vibe-coding-editorโ€ฆ

in reply to It's FOSS

vibe coding can help solve areas you might get stuck with, because the LLM can code things in a way that does things differently that you might not have thought of. Even if the code isnt perfect, it can help give ideas and you can manually correct it.


Want a more secure Linux setup? Check out these nine tips.

itsfoss.com/improve-security-lโ€ฆ

in reply to It's FOSS

Another security tip: Don't use Debian or LTS distros. Those distributions constantly use outdated software and usually only fix security issues if they have a CVE number.

Ubuntu also does not guarantee any fix to "Universe" packages. Even well known software with critical security issues might not get fixes, if the package maintainer loses interest (this for example happend with Mozilla Seamonkey webbrowser in the past!)

in reply to It's FOSS

Just use NixOS. Since nothing runs, malware is just as likely to fail execution as 90% of normal software.

"Cuts of 30 to 70% are rumored at USDA next week. NIH & NSF funding is being destroyed & the agencies themselves facing cuts.

About 3,500 nonfederal entomologists depend on these agencies. We're๐Ÿšจrisking research that protects #ecosystems & #foodsecurity."

It's difficult to keep up with all the atrocities, but we amplify the gravity of the losing these experts, the firings, existential threats... of the #TrumpMusk admin.

"Swaths of the woodland, which is a valuable carbon sink, once covered western Scotland, Wales and south-west England, as well as Ireland, but it has been reduced to tiny fragments, a fraction of its former size. Globally, temperate rainforest covers less than 1% of the Earthโ€™s land surface, making it one of the rarest ecosystems on the planet...

โ€œWe hope it will serve as a nexus for temperate rainforest research across the whole range,โ€ said Merlin Hanbury-Tenison. โ€œ

About 250M years ago, 90% of species on Earth died during the Permian extinction. All of that loss created a lot of vacant niches to fill.

Time is running out for Life on Earth, though. In about only 500M years, the end stages of the Sun will render the Earth uninhabitable.

Why itโ€™s time to ditch the myth of the heroic billionaire


Democracy is built on the idea of popular sovereignty: the insistence the โ€œpeopleโ€ are collectively the ones ultimately responsible for self rule. Central to this is the rule of law, whereby all citizens, no matter how powerful or wealthy, are subject to the same laws. Leaders like Trump, however, seem to believe themselves to be above the law...

Musk is not the first billionaire to position himself as a heroic โ€œrevolutionaryโ€ for whom the laws donโ€™t apply; the wealthy have long claimed they can solve the worldโ€™s problems better than democratic institutions. Where hope lies, however, is that Musk has taken this vigilantism to such extremes, a fightback is occurring. He may have gone too far.
