Milan provides a good reminder of why ESR's "Cathedral and the Bazaar" essay gets its central metaphor wrong.

The cathedral took centuries of collaborative work to build, with many artists and intersecting visions. (Still at it, as you can see.)

The bazaar was built by a king and is full of luxury brands.

would have been the best if it had some UPS built in 😃. Don’t care if it’d be larger - would buy right away if it had 4x21700 batteries for example 🙌🏻

Software libre: más allá de la libertad

En la actualidad hay muchos movimientos sociales conscientes de la defensa de los comunes, esos bienes esenciales para preservar la vida, la cultura, la sociedad, sin los cuales la humanidad difícilmente sobreviviría.

Pero muchos de esos movimientos no han hecho el esfuerzo de añadirse a otra lucha en su día a día: la del uso y difusión del #SoftwareLibre .

Have I mentioned recently how much I like my rock garden?
My car mechanic gave me a ride home the other day when my car had to stay the night, and when he saw my garden, he said, wow that's a lot of plants!

We're thrilled to announce our new project:
docs.coop/

Building on the great work of Suite Numerique (docs.numerique.gouv.fr/home/), we are offering an opportunity to be part of a new collaborative Docs platform as a service, that provides an ethical alternative to Google Docs, Office 365, Notion etc.

Docs is the result of a joint effort lead by the French 🥖 (DINUM) and German 🥨 (ZenDiS) governments which represents a paradigm shift in the way open source software is funded.

I just updated, and it looks like two glaring flaws in Nextcloud have still not been fixed yet:

1. The required "High-Performance Backend" is not included in the "Talk" app, and

2. ISO date format cannot be selected for use in the "Calendar" app.

What's your outlook for when such failures will be addressed?

"Why are so many children getting Long COVID?"

We pretended COVID is gone. We've avoided masks. We've done nothing to clean the air in classrooms. Very few children are getting vaccinated. We do nothing to change kids' activities to keep them safer during surges.

Yes, it sure is a mystery why so many children are getting Long #COVID19. Get your children vaccinated, opt for more outdoor activities, and ask about ventilation and filtration in your children's classrooms.

Saw this on another site. This is why all new accounts for commenting on GamingOnLinux go through new post and edit post approvals, to stop crap like this going into public.


On writing is thinking:

"On the page, you are confronted with the shortcomings in your thinking, the gaps in your evidence, the flaws in your argument. You become aware of important matters that you had not considered. The process of writing is the process of working through those problems, of figuring out the best way to express whatever you are trying to express. Onerous as it may be, the result is gratifying, even if fleetingly so."

What concerns me the most is the potential for deepening the divide between the haves and the have nots: the elite will continue to instruct their young to think independently, while the rest will grow dependent on "oracles", aka LLM chat prompts, or as it is called, "AI".

This growing concern echos the central tenet of Asimov's novella "Profession":
