    • Free Software Foundation
    @fsf The phrase "Free as in Freedom" is more meaningful today than ever before. We often talk of users being "robbed" of their freedoms by non-free software, but many users aren't provided the opportunity to have something to be robbed of to begin with. Nearly everything users do is controlled and surveilled by corporations and governments as a feature, by default. Non-free software exposes and exfiltrates the most intimate aspects of our lives---it explores our thoughts, sits in our living rooms, and understands us better than we understand ourselves. Children are exposed to and taught to love and accept these software and devices before they can even crawl.

    I've never felt more liberated by #freesoftware. But I've also never felt more concerned and sympathetic for users who are caught up in all of this. Most users don't even know that there are things to be concerned _of_, let alone where to even begin, despite the best intentions and predictions of many within our community.

    And I've also never felt more compelled to do something about it.

    By exercising your right to #privacy, you make it easier for others, such as activists and journalists, to do so without sticking out.

    Or maybe that's one of the best. ♻ @xahlee possibly one worst aspect of open source ideology, is helping the rise of the sjw ideology, and today, pushing for open communism.

      Riot.im 0.12 is out, yes it’s better than Slack
      By Rudolf Olah from SourceContribute

      Riot.im is out with version 0.12 for web and desktop. It is another fine example of an open source Slack (or HipChat) alternative (we’ve covered one Slack alternative before, Zulip). In this latest version they include widgets which are a way of sharing app integrations embedded within a Riot.im chat room.

      Embeddable Widgets For Your Chat Room

      Widgets are embedded and pinned to the top of your Riot.im chat room. This makes them visible at all times to everyone in the chat room. Similar to pinning a particular message.

      The widgets included in this release are:

      • YouTube, for sharing an endless playlist of cat videos in a chat room
      • Etherpad, for sharing notes that can be collaborated on
      • Grafana, for sharing graphs of how much traffic is spiking web server CPU
      • Google Docs, for sharing documents

      There’s an ability to add custom widgets so I’m hoping someone creates a custom widget for Kolab Now (which is a free/open source alternative to Google Docs).

      Only the Most Proper Video Conferencing with Jitsi

      The bigger news? Riot.im has support for proper video conferencing with Jitsi! Jitsi is free/open source video conferencing software that is compatible with WebRTC and is scalable and matches what the big players of video conferencing  (Skype, Zoom) are offering.

       

      Riot.im and Matrix, free/open source alternatives to Slack

      Riot.im promises the same thing as Slack except in a nicer, more hackable free/open source package. Riot.im is a client for the Matrix group chat server. Matrix is the free/open source infrastructure for setting up a Slack/HipChat alternative. There are other clients available for it. Matrix can be viewed as an alternative to XMPP/Jabber and as an upgrade to IRC.

      You can support Matrix and free/open source chat/communications infrastructure by donating here through Liberapay (or Patreon or sending cryptocurrency like BitCoin or Ethereum BTC 1LxowEgsquZ3UPZ68wHf8v2MDZw82dVmAE, ETH 0xA5f9a4f9E024F6D727f7afdA9257e22329A97485).

    Yahoo Mail has taken blacklisting to new levels. I run a number of mailing lists, and *all* mail to yahoo.com addresses (and its affiliates like rogers.com) are bouncing, with the message "Someone has complained about your IP address", and then it lists the IP address of my upstream mail provider! So there are thousands of people who can't send to Yahoo addresses, based on one complaint?

    And that functionality (mounting a .tar file) exists in the package 'archivemount' https://www.linux.com/news/mounting-archives-fuse-and-archivemount

      Mounting archives with FUSE and archivemount
      from Linux.com | The source for Linux information
      The archivemount FUSE filesystem lets you mount a possibly compressed tarball as a filesystem. Because FUSE exposes its filesystems through the Linux kernel, you can use any application to load and save files directly into such mounted archives. This lets you use your favourite text editor, image viewer, or music player on files that are still inside an archive file. Going one step further, because archivemount also supports write access for some archive formats, you can edit a text file directly from inside an archive too.

    As #OpenBSD's de-facto wifi maintainer, I first learned about this WPA problem in June. A simple patch was provided which I could commit with slight modifications.

    The original embargo was already 2 months long, and then extended again for 2 months.

    The generall public (you) were left in the dark about this for at least 4 months.

    This is a very sad state of affairs. It takes the industry much too long to apply a simple patch.

    Wut? I thought #DigitalAudioTape was a failed technology from the 1990s, and haven't seen references to #SingleSideBand since the #CBRadio days. Or perhaps we ran out of #TLAs in 2010, and we're just recycling the unused ones. @lnxw48a1 @clacke #Dat #SSB
