    This is very disappointing to see. The screenshot shows "You're ready to go!", followed by "You can use 'Software' to install apps like these:". The apps they list, in left-right top-down order, are: VLC (free), Skype (non-free), Spotify (non-free), Slack (non-free), Discord (non-free), Corebird (free), Mailspring (free), GIMP (free), Minecraft (non-free), Android Studio (non-free), Ora (non-free), Notepad-Plus-Plus (free), Tusk (free), Brave (free), and IDEA Community (free).

    That is 8 free and _7 non-free_. Also in the screenshot on the left is an Amazon icon.

    We've known #Ubuntu to do these things for a while now, but I grow increasingly disappointed with each release. Ubuntu also encourages the use of proprietary software through "snaps", and advertises non-free software by default through their package repositories unless you explicitly check a box (at least in previous version) during installation to use only free repositories.

      Ubuntu 18.04: Unity is gone, GNOME is back—and Ubuntu has never been better
      from Ars Technica
      Server users will really like 18.04, but the newest Ubuntu works great for all Linux fans.

    Yahoo's new terms of service:

    "...arbitration or a small claims action will be the sole and exclusive means of resolving any dispute between us. You also understand that by agreeing to these terms, you and Oath are giving up the right to bring a claim in court or in front of a jury..., and that you and Oath are giving up the right to proceed with any class action or other representative action."

    Oh goodie, Oath is giving up a right it never had.

    Burn it to the ground.

    My 9-year-old nephew (who isn't white) was searching Google Images, with SafeSearch turned on, for NASA pictures. He found a meme that he thought was funny because it had a NASA logo and a snake.

    It was an antisemitic meme with a swastika, a symbol which he's never seen before. I've gotta talk with him about Nazis and the internet now. And why is Google letting Nazi memes through when SafeSearch is enabled?

    Amazon Echo Dot for kids?

    I got an e-mail from Mozilla to put pressure on Amazon to say what they do with the data they collect from children.

    How about educating parents as to why the original Dot is a bad idea, and why this is even worse. These children are defenseless in a #surveillance society without the help of their guardians---having every aspect of their being dissected and analyzed before they even know what is happening or that they should care. By the time they have grown and maybe _do_ care, it is already far too late; they are already compromised. Most of the things learned about children won't change into adulthood. And further, Amazon will help to shape what these children become based on how they interact with Alexa, whether they intend to or not.

    @lnxw48a1 Oh dear. I was thinking of installing Pleroma to have a look but. "totality of divine powers" sounds like it's going to root my server, and the last thing my hardrive needs it "fullness".
