The Supreme Court of India issued a complicated verdict on the #AadhaarAct.
The verdict isn't perfect, but there's some good in it.
Mishi Choudhary, SFLC's Legal Director, has been interviewed extensively on the verdict.
This is one of her statements:

The social network #ScuttleButt is unusual:
-You can view and post messages while offline. It updates when a connection is next available.
-It optionally supports #MeshNetworks, so you can connect to others without the internet.
It's still quite tricky to use, but a new app called #ManyVerse is trying to make it easier:
Currently on Android (on Play and soon F-Droid), with iOS and desktop Win/Mac/Linux on the way.

Took part in #SoftwareFreedomDay celebration today organized by #FSHM. Nearly 200 people (school & college students with general public) visited our stalls.
I have setup a stall to show-case self-hosting our services using single board computers. In my stall I installed @nextcloud and served it locally using a wireless router.
Thanks to @fsfe for sending us stickers and posters which we distributed to the general public and volunteers who have put up the stalls. Pics coming soon via #NextCloud

#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

It is up and running again, but I have lost ssh control over it due to a setting I changed. I have no other option but to connect it to external display and keyboard to revert back the settings. But again, when I connect to external display the board keeps rebooting. 😆
