I've overhauled my Patreon! I'm now focused on making CC0 software for Linux and Windows - free, open source, no strings attached. If you want to support the work, vote on what gets built next, or just follow along, the new tiers are live now. Everything I make will always be free for everyone, but if you believe in what I'm doing, this is the best way to help 🙂

My latest blog post: Building Oops! All Servos!
https://mikecoats.com/building-oops-all-servos/
Even though these boards were sponsored by JLCPCB, I still wanted to save some money, so I opted to handle the through-hole components myself. I also deliberately ordered a few unpopulated PCBs to use as assembly jigs.

There are 14 million total accounts on the fediverse that @fedidb measures; that’s a ~40% increase over the last two years!
…but there’s a lot more the fediverse can do to grow.
@evan is live now discussing this in the @fedicon track of FOSSY.
https://ubc.ca.panopto.com/Panopto/Pages/Viewer.aspx?id=90a26e9a-8dd4-439b-9941-b49d01781e51
We’re at FediCon to learn and share how the fediverse can use open source tools to help keep those 14 million accounts safe from the harms that affect every online service.
Hey #fediverse #activitypub #mastodon #opensource who else is in beautiful #Amsterdam this week? Love to meet you there! @FediVariety #NOAW

In SH sieht's noch eher dünn aus, dabei gibt's noch einige Unternehmen in der Community mit Fokus auf #OpenSource, KI-Sicherheit und Green IT, die fehlen.

Russ Sharek has been described by reliable sources as wiser than a rubber duck, a zen fool, a benevolent super villain, a talentless hack, a magical f***ing wizard, a misanthropic community leader, a clown (grand)father figure and an Impish Cabaret Rasputin.
