"Open source by definition keeps the door wide open, legally to boot. But a fork only gives you the code. An open source project is more than its code, it's the sum of its maintainers, infrastructure, trademarks, dependencies, and trust. You can copy the code in seconds, the rest you would need to rebuild from scratch in most cases. The people invoking the right to fork already know this."

My review on GNU/Linux of the drawing tablet XPpen Artist 12 3rd is now published! It's a clever little display drawing tablet and relatively cheap, I’m truly loving it! I've already used it to finish a comic on the train, and it'll be my my go-to device for travelling from now on. 🩷 Taking the pink one was the best decision!

2 days of running #OpenBSD as a daily driver has been smooth as silk. I fixed the touchpad issue on my thinkpad and getting a linux VM setup for my web dev build and deploys was way easier than FreeBSD.
I am absolutely loving this operating system. it's solid, doesn't eat resources, and is simply a joy to use. I'm now seriously considering nuking my nixos partition and just putting debian or bazzite on it for only gaming.
It's fun learning to use another DAW. There's always enough difference in the process that it makes you think about different things.
In this case, trying out the linux DAWs.
Once I moved back to x86, all the problems I had with the audio pipeline disappeared.

🐧 Milá komunito,
máme na vás velkou prosbu
V říjnu jedeme na LinuxDays – chceme tam osobně ukázat OSCloud lidem, co mají blízko k Linuxu, open source a Fediverse. A rádi bychom vás poprosili o pomoc.
Provozujeme třeba Mastodon, Pixelfed, VHSky, mákni.cz, Nextcloud nebo Ente Photos – a chceme ukázat, že takové služby můžou fungovat bez reklam, bez sledování a bez vendor lock-inu, jako komunitní projekt, ne jako firma s investorem za zády.
Účast na LinuxDays nás bude stát navíc k běžnému provozu serverů – tiskoviny, cesta a reklamní předměty. Odhadem 10–15 000 Kč. Pokud vám dává smysl to, co děláme, budeme rádi za jakýkoli příspěvek:
👉 Účet: 264043266/0600
Nemusí jít o velkou částku – i drobný dar nám pomůže náklady na propagaci posunout do přijatelnějších hranic.
❤️ Díky všem, kdo OSCloud používají, podporují, nebo o něm prostě řeknou dál.
Pomozte nám dostat OSCloud mezi lidi 🐧
Hello everyone! Jim here.
I just wanted to let you know that I’ll be at openSUSE.Asia Summit 2026 as a speaker. My topic is going to be “Getting the next generation to learn the GNU/Linux system”. I’ll be sharing all the info you need to know about learning to use GNU/Linux and how to reduce your dependency on proprietary software and operating systems (like Microsoft Windows and others).
Join us at the openSUSE Asia Summit 2026 in the Convention Hall at UIN Sunan Kalijaga in Yogyakarta on 3rd and 4th October. Also, come to Room 2 on the first day to learn about GNU/Linux with me — it’ll be a great learning opportunity! Scan the QR code in the image or visit the link below to secure your ticket for the summit.

See you in Yogyakarta at the summit!

Scribus-unstable definitely makes scribus a more bearable beast.
On 1.6 the icons were extremely tiny, and for whatever reason it started with zero panes active. <-- Once I figured out how to set some panes and not have to F2/F3 all the time, life got easier.
Luckily it seems like 1.7 has much better defaults and a nicer UI

I have decided to shut down my #mastodon instance, and all my public facing web services.
This will happen in 3 months time, on November 29, 2026, to allow everyone to backup and migrate.
The reason for this is that I can no longer trust:
- the #Linux kernel
- #Debian
- rails
- most #Foss projects
Additionally, I'm basically out of storage, it is unaffordable to purchase more, and no one is interested in donating to help.
Our bastion of free computing has been poisoned by fascist gen ai slop, and basically NONE of it can be trusted anymore.
It's impossible to vet slop from an ecosystem that is welcoming of it.
This makes it nearly impossible to update my systems, which makes it harder to pretend it's even remotely secure.
I'm fucking devestated - gutted by what has happened to computing, and I just do not have the resources to keep fighting.
Fuck all you #LLM boosters into the sun. May you learn the folly of your way and DO SOMETHING TO FIX IT!

Veronica Explains is a series of really fun and useful videos about computing, technology, self-hosting, FOSS, Linux, retro computing and assorted other stuff. You can follow at:

(Don't worry if it looks blank to you, that just means no one from your server has followed it yet. Follow the account and its videos will start gradually showing up on your server too.)

I switched my daily os from mac to linux four months ago, and honestly after the initial “shock” of adapting to new apps, it’s been a great experience!

The story of Linux should inspire the Fediverse.
"The year of the Linux desktop" has been a joke for 25 years - a quarter of the century! Yet slowly, and with a persistent following building for linux and supporting it, it's reaching a point where it's no longer something to laugh about - it's a valid choice for many people. Hell, my father (who is 81!) uses ZorinOS, which I installed when windows became too laggy and frustrating for him on his aging PC.
Similarly, if you tell someone that fedi can replace facebook/instagram/x for them, they will probably not take you seriously - most of the people they want to interact with are not here. In the very same way that the apps that people wanted to use on their operating system were not on linux some years ago. Things change - we can change them!
Linux is 35 years old. ActivityPub is less than 10!
Let's build apps and communities for the widespread adoption of the open web, for the fedi revolution. This won't come by itself, we have to prepare it. But we will - we already are!
I made the mistake of trying to update an event using merkuro calendar, which proceeded to nuke all the events.
Somehow, KOrgainzer has been the most reliable calendar app out of all the linux ones I've tried.

I just lost my job today, so here we go..
I'm a ~30 years Sysadmin/DevOps/Server Shepard/Graybeard whatever its called now UNIX nerd.
Looking for work doing UNIX'y stuff. I mostly do automation, and have avoided working with AI and Kubernetes (though I have a bit of k8s experience at two jobs, I just prefer "the old way")
Chef, Puppet, Cfengine, Ansible, Shell scripts, etc.
I've built Linux distributions, and automation tools. Having worked at Redhat, TurboLinux, Penguin Computing, Salesforce, and Chef.
Built and maintained monitoring systems, checks, and lived the on-call life.
Built and managed CI systems, and Pipelines.
I've written and maintained software in Ruby, Python, and Shell. I've dabbled in just about every other programming language you'll find on a UNIX system.
I have spent a lot of time with *BSD, Solaris, IRIX, and Linux, and to a lesser extent HPUX, and AIX.
If its sysadmin work on a UNIX, I've likely done it.

Next step, installing #Linux on systems. Digital sovereignty doesn't stop at the office suite; the operating system is still a dependency underneath. What distributions are primed to be the #foundation once the office suite is sorted? #openSUSE #Fedora #Debian #Ubuntu https://tuta.com/blog/countries-ditching-microsoft-choosing-linux-digital-sovereignty
