"For decades, the phrase “Year of the Linux Desktop” has been tossed around like a tech industry punchline. But now, it’s no longer a meme—it’s a movement.
This isn’t just about numbers—it’s about momentum. GNU/Linux’s desktop share hovered below 2% for years. But since 2020, it’s been climbing fast.
From the lens of @purism this shift is more than market share—it’s a cultural awakening."

Nejvyšší soud a jeho opomíjená sjednocovací role
Nejvyšší soud má být garantem jednotného výkladu práva. V řadě oblastí však tuto funkci nezajišťuje, což vede k právní nejistotě. Z pohledu advokáta, který denně sleduje dopady soudních rozhodnutí na klienty, jde o problém, který nelze přehlížet.Pavla Krejčí (Médium.cz)

This was inspired by seeing a network proposal to use LACP over STP to make use of the extra capacity of the redundant link. It didn't mention any monitoring to ensure network capacity in case of failure.
Proč už nevěřím Telegramu
Je to deset let, co jsem začal používat Telegram. Za tu dobu jsem přesvědčil hodně lidí, aby ho začali používat, obhajoval jsem ho, ale v poslední době mám čím dál větší pocit, že jsem se v něm mýlil. V tomto blogpostu se pokusím vysvětlit proč.

Nějakou "killer social feature" má holt každá appka. Messenger mám proto, že přes něj komunikují členové obecní komise, na WhatsApp posílala fotky škola/školka a různé kroužky, Telegram viz nahoře. Nemám takovou moc, abych sepsul ve skupině 20 cizích lidí, ať se vykašlou na Telegram/FB/WhatsApp a nainstalují Element. 😄
Jen prostě ta architektura a transparentnost služby nejsou dost dobré na to, abych tomu věřil se soukromými zprávami. Když to nezneužije Telegram, může kdokoliv jiný.
So the choice for the Municipal in Montréal are:
- The one I have had regret on day one. The incumbent that reneged on every promise.
- A party that want AI policing so that racial profiling can be even worse.
- A party that exclude anglos and visually impaired people.
- The party of Tremblay (corruption).
Well fuck.
It's shit sandwich vs turd spread on bagel.
oh and I didn't spell it out but I believe the incumbent party is also corrupt.
Today we announced our progressive vision for Public Security in Montreal.
🔸Massive Investment in prevention;
🔸Creation of a civil service for social crises;
🔸An end to budgetary waste;
🔸Abolition of arbitrary police street checks.
we see you also don't want support from disabled people. People that are visually impaired can't read this since you posted an image full of text with no ALT that would spell the text out.
Good job.
What a shock. Carney ran on "no cuts" and lied. Again.

Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne is forecasting “tough choices” in this fall’s federal budget, as the government reviews billions of dollars in proposed spending reductions that he suggested would lead to job losses in the civil service.

Google’s $45 million contract to spread Netanyahu's propaganda

In this newly disclosed #curl security report it is painfully obvious how the user's "clever" idea of using an AI to write the report made the report into a impenetrable wall of text instead of simply stating the problem in a few coherent paragraphs.

Imagine a Montréal municipal party that wants to take on the incumbents, and it manage to deliberately ignore 15% of the population by not providing an English version of their website.
@somecanuckchick @driusan and then stabbed them in the heart.

Tady je odpověď na to, jak tihle zmetci můžou sami se sebou žít. Ten hajzl sám sebe přesvědčil, že vlastně dělá dobré skutky… 48 procent RPSN je pro ně málo. Ať shoří v pekle společné s “finanční inkluzí”, což je jenom jiný název pro lichvu a zneužívání sociálního postavení jejich klientů v nouzi.

Strop na úroky z úvěrů? Ze Slovenska jsme kvůli tomu museli odejít, v Česku uvidíme, říká šéf IPF, mateřské firmy Provident Financial
V čele finanční skupiny International Personal Finance (IPF), která aktuálně v devíti zemích poskytuje spotřebitelům úvěry s vysokým úrokem, stojí Gerard Ryan už třináct let.Jitka Vlková (Economia, a.s.)
já nedávno zjistil, že v Nizozemsku neexistuje žádná opravdová kreditní karta. Důvodem je zastropování úvěrů na 15 % p. a. Navíc tu každá instituce půjčující peníze musí povinně ukazovat varování, že "půjčování peněz stojí peníze."
Zřejmě moc dobře vědí, že povolit lidem půjčovat si peníze na velký úrok se státu nevyplatí.

Spreadshirt responded to my email about their AI tool for designers. There must have been a few of us who threatened to leave. Hilariously , their response is to add an opt-out tool for designers.
Because, and the fuckers didn't even allude to this in the original announcement, the 'AI design tool' will also scrape the designs you have uploaded on their platform. Of course it will.
So now people have a chance to opt out TWO WEEKS AFTER the AI shite is in place. Lolzers.
I've deleted all my stuff. I don't care, I've only made a few shirts for myself or the Merry Mushmen here and there, this isn't part of my livelihood... What would I do if I counted on t-shirt sales for a living? Would I even have a choice?
I just bought 20 envelopes and stamps, and I'm packing them with 5x #Conversations_im, 5x #OMEMO, and 5x #XMPP stickers each.
Send me an email if you want one. Put 'Stickers' in the subject so I can filter. While supplies last, obviously. (Though I'm more limited on the stamps than the stickers.)
Edit: I’m out of envelopes.
And I’m out of envelopes. I didn’t send out individual confirmations, but if you sent your email before just now, I very likely received it and sent an envelope your way.
They mostly went where you would expect them to go: Germany, France, and Spain. But a few went to some more obscure places…
