My husband's @jbqueru #RaspberryPi 5 setup, with the new monitor I got for him recently for his name day. He's writing a game for the AtariST currently. Let the coding commence.
Need a transparent, flexible way to manage internal requests, without switching tools?

Minister is phasing out Microsoft in the Ministry of Digitalization
｢ Digitalization Minister Caroline Stage will begin phasing out Microsoft from her ministry starting next month. The plan is for about half of the employees to start working with computers running a version of #Linux instead of Windows and using #LibreOffice instead of Office 365 over the summer. If all goes as expected, the entire ministry will be free from Microsoft by autumn ｣

@snow IMHO #piracy should only be considered "#theft" [with damages being limited to the cost of properly licensing it!] if the pirated material was still offered for licensing new under fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory terms.
- I.e. if a #game has been #delisted and the #platform it was released on is #EoL'd then there should be no claim to "damages" as the #IP holder did not provide a way to #license said content or otherwise comply with #copyright.
In the past, #EA did offer to replace broken discs / cartridges for a nominal fee [AFAIK €10 per disc or €15 for double-discs] if people mailed in the original (broken) media. I'd say that is should apply to everything, tho granted that only allows people in theory to deal with #DiscRot (assuming the publisher is able and willing to perpetually honour this service), not allowing them to legally attain new licenses.
- As a matter of fact #Adobe canceled #OneTimePurchase options for their #CreativeSuite after they got successfully sued into allowing people to #sell and #transfer #licenses for their #CS6 and other products.
#Valve & #Steam legally workaround this by merely providing access and not a #license per-se.
- Still, I think #piracy in almost all cases is (as GabeN correctly said:) "A services problem!" and if a product is fairly priced and then people will be willing to pay for it.
I just think that the rampant Enshittification of even #PhysicalMedia is unsustainable and I wish for an #OpenSource #competitor to #BDXL and it's #OnlineDRM!

a), b), c) are tough but not totally unrealistic.
Its d) that is practically impossible for billions of people. Not because of google search, but because of android.
Thats why a true #opensource #linux mobile is so important for the design of a different digital society.

I was one of the GNOME project’s first sysadmins, back in the days of a single CVS server running on a machine hosted at Red Hat’s office.
It’s amazing to see their journey to the cloud!

Enjoy the exploration of the past bits of May and read an motivational message of accountability and condolences of a beautiful precious life.
Some more tweaking, and my BeOS impersonation under XFce is near complete. It just feels good.
And the system now cold-boots at 475 MB of RAM. Awesome!
