You might want to reconsider your use of Anaconda / Conda. Updated terms of service are unclear about what is and isn't allowed under their free tier, with potential of contamination of "off limits" packages due to dependency resolution (using environment files).

fail2ban has one core maintainer https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban and he has only 3 Github sponsors https://github.com/sebres

WTF

I can't even comprehend how many servers are protected by fail2ban, how many compromises are avoided, how many people who run hobby things all the way up to major sites that get to sleep soundly every night... because of this single project.

Welp. It's official. #Redis is no longer #OSS

While I wasn't a contributor to the core, I presented on it dozens of times, talked to thousands, and wrote a book about it.

I probably wouldn't have done any of that with that kind of license.

Very disappointed.

I guess people hating #Wayland are the same folks that hate #SystemD or even #PipeWire whilst refusing to #DoBetter themselves:

#Toxic #Neighsayers that refuse to acknowledge that #Xorg, #SystemVinit and #ALSA / #OSS are bad.

Instead they create redundant work that noone cares and that only.pulls resources from improving mainlike #Linux.

Or does anyone use #Devuan in any busoness-critical applicationm?


"The number of people from Latin America in leadership positions is miniscule, especially compared to the userbase. I'm going to spend my sabbatical time to build capacity and work on problems that are relevant to Latin America. If #UNESCO wants to provide resources for that - I'd be happy to talk!" - @fperez

(answer to a question by Ana Persic on the involvements of the Global Majority in #OSS)

So, to avoid the "Extend" of #EEE, which is the real risk point, what can be done since mass defederation won't protect ActivityPub?

This isn't a new battle. Tons of efforts to #EEE open tech fail. As @emc2 has put well #OSS software has fought and won this battle many times. As @davew the godfather of RSS & Podcasting said: "Podcasting has withstood countless attacks like this, and has always been left standing as unsullied as ever."

We know how to win this. Some tactics next.
