"Pakistan isn’t trying to become a Silicon Valley of solar. It’s not chasing unicorn valuations or plastering press releases with blockchain buzzwords. It’s solving energy poverty with sunlight and silicon. It’s trading diesel for distributed storage. It’s moving from grid collapse to gridless competence. It’s trading petrol for electrons. And it’s doing it at a pace that should embarrass countries with ten times the GDP."

Edit: sorry for posting a story with an AI-generated image. Didn't notice at the time.

this is the correct attitude for open source projects. free software is political.

forum.yunohost.org/t/am-i-hack…


Am I hacked or is this something new?

Regarding the comments along the lines of “is it really necessary to have politics involved in open-source projects?”, “can’t you be neutral?”, “what is this shit?”… Yes, it’s necessary.

“The ‘Freedom Convoy’ was — without question — one of the low points for conservatism in Canada; one of the most divisive & disturbing events in recent Canadian political history. Its goal was to overthrow a legally elected government & Poilievre championed their cause.”

"It backfired on Mr #Poilievre when the convoy squatters, squatted for too long & the rest of #Canada watched in horror as they tormented the innocent citizens of #Ottawa & trashed the city for weeks"

Nimm #pipewire, haben sie gesagt. Damit wird alles einfacher, haben sie gesagt.

Naja, man ist da sicher auf einem guten Weg. Aber das Jonglieren mit config Dateien und Einstellungen erinnert mich doch etwas daran, wie es vor reichlich zehn Jahren war, wenn man #jack und #pulseaudio zusammenbringen wollte.

Zwar muss jetzt nicht soo viel konfiguriert werden, aber man muss schon ein wenig herumsuchen...

Mit meinem install #Script für das #Audio Zeug hab ich es nun ohne jack versucht. Mal sehen ob es sich mit #ubuntu 24 #Linux bewährt:

Dankbar bin ich für Ideen dazu und für Hinweise auf Fehler.

#Petice za odtajnění protistátních aktivit #IVK, #SPD,#KSČ, #FilipTurek a dalších. Myslím si, že veřejnost v #ČR má právo vědět, proč #BIS označuje tyhle lidi za bezpečnostní riziko.

Výzva, žádost, prosba.

Výzva Vládě ČR a Prezidentu ČR k odtajnění informací v naléhavém veřejném zájmu

Vyzýváme Vládu České republiky a Prezidenta České republiky, aby s ohledem na urgentní veřejný zájem rozhodli o odtajnění a zveřejnění utajovaných informací získaných zpravodajskými službami ČR.

Konkrétně žádáme o zpřístupnění informací týkajících se protistátních aktivit Institutu Václava Klause, politických stran SPD a KSČM a osob Václava Klause st., Filipa Turka, Kateřiny Konečné, Jana Kavana a Zdeňka Zbytka, včetně jejich kontaktů a spolupráce s nepřátelskými mocnostmi, zejména Íránskou islámskou republikou a Ruskou federací.

Vzhledem k aktuální bezpečnostní situaci považujeme za nezbytné, aby občané České republiky měli přístup k těmto informacím, které mohou zásadně ovlivnit demokratické procesy, národní bezpečnost a suverenitu naší země.

Žádáme okamžité přijetí kroků k odtajnění a zveřejnění těchto informací ve prospěch transparentnosti, ochrany demokratických principů a bezpečnosti ČR.
