@Friendica Support what license / terms of use is the friendica logo under?
@Fabio pointed me to the SVGs at git.friendi.ca/friendica/frienโฆ and git.friendi.ca/friendica/frienโฆ ; am I correct that they would be under CC0-1.0 as per git.friendi.ca/friendica/frienโฆ ?
Are there additional term of use on the logo?
Looking at @Fabio 's laptop yesterday we may have agreed that there is an unacceptable lack of hexagons with nested Fs, and I wanted to fix this ๐
Canadians using Twitter/X are being bombarded by misleading right-wing posts designed to boost Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre and tarnish the reputation of Mark Carney.
The FTโs analysis finds a growing volume of that misinformation is coming not from Russia or China, but the United States.

Linux vs. Windows: 10 things that set Linux apart.

10 Things You Can do on Linux but not on Windows
Windows, can you do this? Linux gives you superpowers you didn't know you had.Ankush Das (It's FOSS)
I do like that Linux can do these out of the box, but none of them really make Linux "better" for it. You can accomplish most of these with PowerToys, oh-my-posh, etc. that let you customize Windows beyond the out-of-the-box experience. The article feels like it's comparing against Windows Vista tbh.
Now, the fact that Linux is FOSS where Windows is not and uniquely has its own Desktop options like Cosmic are definitely big pluses for me.
I am currently considering these maps. Looking at these do you have any thoughts?

Where Are Fortune 500 Companies Located?
By numbers the blue states are potentially quite powerful. However, many of them have a layer of corporate governance.

1. Today I learned that my collaborator @jjinsing had his NSF postdoctoral position terminated in yesterday's round of cuts.
Jay is the lead author on a fascinating paper I was involved in, about how male mimicry by female hummingbirds provides the first example of a type of signaling system that we predicted from theoretical principles over a decade ago.
This is infuriating.
And I believe it's due to anti-trans bias.
Why do I say that?
A small fraction of the female birds of this species โ and in fact, many other hummingbird species as well โ adopt male plumage. It's a fascinating phenomenon and probably evolved because that females with male plumage are less likely to be chased away form food sources.

@jedbrown Thanks. I tend to think upper admin interests are downstream of the funding structures. They care about donors, etc, because that is a big part of their job when there is such limited public support.
I certainly am with you on the need for collective power.

Sry no SVG.
JPG-PNG are available in all sizes up to 256px I believe.
I even ulpoaded this to git friendica I think, not sure witch versions, every once in a while I retouch something.
Terms of use are CC0 (actually NC) but in the case of friendica anything goes.
The colored circular image is a svg "permafluer", published creative commons by someone else in some CC svg catalogue site. The copy left is from a SVG creative commons site. The friendica base is from a friendica logo itself.
Gimme a day and I look up all the info with links if I can.
Versions of this have been used as canvas for forum profiles, see here to get an idea:
