Time for this week's #Linux and #OpenSource News video!

In this one, we have #Firefox adding some data collection (but it's fine, IMO), we have a ton of stuff happening around AI, and it's still an absolute nightmare, we have the Linux Kernel 6.9 (nice), and #France banning #TikTok in one of its territories, which alarmed a bunch of human rights / freedom associations:

Nunca tinha parado pra pensar que uma solução VDI (Virtual Desktop) também pode substituir Google Drive, Dropbox e outras...

A depender da capacidade de integração.

Hello les lecteurs compulsifs !
Je suis en recherche de conseils pour l'achat d'une #liseuse en vue de faire un cadeau.
J'ai pas franchement d'expérience dans le domaine alors toute suggestion argumentée m’aidera à y voir plus clair.
• J'aimerais déjà qu'elle soit le plus ouverte possible pour les formats pris en charge.
#opensource serait un gros plus mais j'ai cru comprendre que c'est pas gagné.
• Budget : 150/180 €
:boost_ok: repouet apprécié 😊

Did you notice? We have almost 5.000 followers!
Now we're wondering: might we find among you (or your network) two experienced UX/UI designers who are willing to engage in a 6-month volunteer project? We need to come up with a way to fit a bunch of new functionality into the already busy player screen. We're looking for two people (one for each role) to help us with this.
Interested? More info? Send a DM or email keunes@mailbox.org.
Boosts appreciated!

Starting the day by deleting around 200 spam GitHub Discussions. Always a pleasure...

If GitHub's looking for AI topics: it could really help maintainers by spotting spam, blocking accounts, and automatically deleting discussions/issues so they have nothing to do.

Jako alternatywy dla współdzielonych map Google korzystam z https://umap.openstreetmap.fr/pl/

Czy ktoś może zna jakieś inne alternatywy do przetestowania w celu tworzenia i współdzielenia map z punktami, które można opisać np. opartych także o OpenStreetMap. Mogą być także samohostowane.

✍️ Day 12: Distilling how to use Participatory Live Coding in-person and online - Tip 5

It is essential that all learners can see the code and the output of the screen because they have to copy exactly what you have typed. Today, we will look at how to use the screen(s) wisely.

Following up on finding open-source projects to contribute to: https://goodfirstissue.dev is another great resource!

It curates easy pickings from popular open-source projects and narrows down projects for new contributors.

Projects must meet criteria like 3+ 'good first issue' labels, 10+ contributors, a README.md with setup instructions, and a CONTRIBUTING.md with guidelines. Projects must also be maintained.

You can filter projects by programming languages.

Hey, developers: The @reviewboard team's starting a new for devs to hang out, chat, and share what you're building.

https://discord.gg/saMCqHEZ

We have channels for , , / , , , and more.

You don't need to use or contribute to Review Board to hang out. (But you can follow development there, if you want.)

We hope to see people come in and hang out. The aim is a friendly, diverse community of devs.

Feel free to pass along the invite!

You know who will never mine your private communications to train an LLM?

Better yet, you know whose words you don't need to trust, because you aren't obligated to use any particular server? And the software is open source? And regularly audited by security researchers?

Matrix.

It's not perfect, but no tool is. It's a matter of what trade offs you're willing to accept. Just sayin' ¯_(ツ)_/¯
