The end of oil? As fuel shocks cascade, 53 nations gather to plan a fossil fuel phaseout
...
"The routine burning of coal, oil and gas is the primary driver of the climate crisis. The world’s highest court last year made clear nations have obligations to stop burning fossil fuels.
"But fossil fuels have barely been mentioned in 30 years of global climate negotiations, due in part to blocking efforts by big fossil fuel exporters and lobbyists.
"Frustrated by slow progress, a coalition of nations has bypassed global climate talks to discuss how to actually phase out fossil fuels.
"The first of these summits will take place next week. More than 50 nations will gather in Santa Marta, Colombia, to discuss a potential standalone treaty to manage fossil-fuel phaseout while protecting workers and financial systems.

I'm very happy with my Kobo Libra 2. A big surprise when I got it was that I stopped having insomnia. I used to read books at night on my iPhone (dark mode, low illumination, color adjusted to deduce blue light) and thought it wouldn't affect my sleep. I'd often be awake for a couple of hours during the night, but didn't think it was connected. The day I got my Kobo, the insomnia stopped. E-ink screens rock.
Very few of my books are from the Kobo store. Mostly they're sideloaded using Calibre.

As many raise questions about #EuroOffice and the #AGPL license ( @nextcloud #Ionos...) my current recommendation is to read:
* @fsf 's "You cannot use the #GNU (A)GPL to take #softwarefreedom away fsf.org/blogs/licensing/agpl-i…
* and @bkuhn 's "#AGPL v3§7¶4 Empowers Users to Thwart #Badgeware" sfconservancy.org/blog/2026/ap…
AGPLv3§7¶4 Empowers Users to Thwart Badgeware
This article discusses a current-headlines situation regarding Affero General Public License, version 3, Section 3, paragraph 4 (AGPLv3§7¶4.). I begin however with an explanation of the problem that clause sought to solve and how the clause works.Software Freedom Conservancy
