    Seen the recent Netflix film "Next Gen"?

    It was made on the free open source animation suite @blender

    #OpenSource dot com asks: What was the most important moment in the history of #Linux? - Many people probably no longer know that early versions of Linux where proprietary because the license prohibited commercial redistribution. Therefore, for me it was the most important moment when Linus Thorvalds released Linux as #FreeSoftware under the #GNU #GPL. Otherwise Linux wouldn't have had this enormous success. https://opensource.com/article/18/8/linux-history

      What was the most important moment in the history of Linux?
      from Opensource.com
      Getting to where it is today was no small feat for the little project that Linus Torvalds announced to the world on August 25, 1991, with this newsgroup post: Hello everybody out there using minix -

    @Shamar
    You seem to be confused about what your position is.

    > "I do NOT think that #FreeSoftware is good and #OpenSource is evil."

    > And I think that OSS projects become VERY EVIL whenever they try to marginalize FS or mute #hackers.

    If it's not a hero/ villain story (#BlackWhiteFallacy), when does "free software" become "VERY EVIL"? Allowing the villain to not be a villain if and when they help the hero does not change the basic shape of the story.

    I love #tmap (R package for maps) so much! I just wanted to reverse the order of my color palette "viridis", so I set a "-" before that palette's name and it just worked. #R #RStudio #maps #opensource

    Basically.

    > The fact is that as #EvgenyMorozov pointed out, #OpenSource is a byproduct of Corporations and Venture Capitalism.

    That's not a fact, it's the story he tells. The other story, the one that Christine Peterson tells, is that "open source" was a hack to get corporations to support and fund the free code software, instead of fighting it.
    https://opensource.com/article/18/2/coining-term-open-source-software

    So there's what happened, and there's the story we tell ourselves about it.

    Fun fact: We took inspiration for Tutanota's new, Google-free push notification when @Gargron 's @Mastodon used SSE for push (they now use another push system). 👍 👏 It's exciting to build open source alternatives to liberate people from using data mining services. #foss #opensource Head over to @fdroidorg to read details on our new push implementation 👉 https://f-droid.org/en/2018/09/03/replacing-gcm-in-tutanota.html

    Dough is a WIP #opensource #DoH (#DNS Queries over HTTPS) server built to the IETF spec written in #Elixir. I have Firefox #TRR configured to use it instead of Cloudflare.

    Still have some QoL changes to make before I suggest everyone uses it; configuration options, bin releases, etc.

    I'd love to get folks to try it and ensure it works beyond the Arch machines I have it on.

    Some extra info in the README

    Is there any good #modular, #sustainable, #opensource, #repairable, or otherwise just good #smartphone - kind of like #fairphone - that I can get in so-called America? I'm really struggling to find anything. Just a rec for a good alternative to Samsung and Apple would be a start!

    RIP Swift Hummingbird

    We should all be very hesitant to back "#opensource" projects primarily developed + funded by a single for-profit organization.

    Not enough interest & profits for the company? project canned.

    I'm sure the actual devs had the best intentions, and loved the project. Unfortunately, their brains are being directed to more profitable solutions, time and again.

    What's going to happen when it's a project you've adopted?

    Yesterday at #OSSummit I realized I'm still struggling with this question:

    What is a clear "organizational contribution" to #OpenSource?

    Cash or in-kind gifts are easy to understand. Things that people do, much murkier.

    An organization is an attribute of a contributor, who may have affiliations with multiple orgs.

    How can a #FreeSoftware project clearly understand "from which org" any given code (or non-code) contribution is really coming from?

    Human brains are not that compartmentalized.
