Now it's official: Starting April 1st I will be starting a student job where I will work on and with #Linux. Signed my contract today. A bit funny that I'm a hardware-first person now working on sofware. Glad to have this oppurtunity.

If your criticism of "big tech" is merely a result of the unhappiness about the fact that Meta, Google and Microsoft aren't EU-corporations you are missing the point.

There is nothing that indicates that SAP or Deutsche Telekom would hesitate a second at the chance of becoming equally violent and exploitative forces.

The solution to Big Tech isn't EU Big Tech. It's de-commercialisation and democratization of tech.

I’ve used git daily for 15 years and there’s plenty I didn’t know in this excellent post https://blog.gitbutler.com/how-git-core-devs-configure-git/

I couldn't find an existing list of Canadian alternatives to American Internet services, so I've started one:

Please spread far and wide, and let me know if you have any updates for the page!

Heh, I guess we will have to stick with the glossy Debian logo for tracker.debian.org instead of the official one.

Nice, @signalapp now supports call links and folders for chats. Especially call links are a feature I'll definitely use.

My heart goes out to the Syrian people today, who are free of a brutal dictator now. I hope a stable gouvernment without any foreign interference will be formed, for a better tomorrow.
Let's hope the future won't have any more wars.

@lindawoodrow @North @permacomputer thanks, that looks interesting.

@grindhold @North thanks :)

@North @matthewvenn thanks, will definitly look into this. To clarify, I am thinking community-produced semiconductors for instance. Right now the whole worlds chip supply is in the hands of 3 foundries, and I don't think this is a good idea.

@sad_electronics Got a link to the Gerber files ?

@alice SANDBIRB

Can anyone point me to resources to learn more about:
- sustainable / openhardware electronics
- "homemade" electronic components (logic gates, resistors, etc.)(CC @North)
Basically if society would end tomorrow, how could we re-build our current technology without making the same mistakes ?
I think about sustainably living with nature in this scenario while also having electric power and e.g. computers.

Please boost for further reach.

It took some time, but the updated glycin-loaders is now available in Debian unstable. Gotta say, #Loupe is really starting to grow on me. Would be grand if some small editing was possible, too.

that moment when you get a reply on a bug that you already had forgotten about filing

Die nächste Auflage von kommt erst 2025. Die 5. Auflage in Gelb ist immernoch aktuell und eignet sich sehr gut als Geschenk für diesen einen Onkel und diese eine Oma, die immer sagen: "Ich habe ja nichts zu verbergen" oder "ist doch egal, wenn xy das über mich weiß".
Das Buch bekommt ihr überall, wo es Bücher gibt und auch bei der @digitalcourage

Leseprobe und alle Infos hier: https://www.zotzmann-koch.com/buecher/na-und/

#Debian stuff this week:
Not a lot, but I packaged code-minimap and vim-minimap (renders code as dots in a minimap to the left in vim).
Also packaged tex-fmt (a fast LaTeX formatter written in Rust).
Continued to work on getting rust-time-0.1 removed.

Hmm @ Flatpak. Maybe it's less effort to just help with the Lutris backport in Debian instead.

@grillchen nice if you want to chat with people without a phonenumber
