How the Chagos sovereignty deal shows the UK’s legal and diplomatic weaknesses.

The agreement suits the United States and Mauritius, but does little for the displaced Chagos islanders.

I decided to record the forest in autumn during one of my regular walks a couple of days ago. The weather was nice. A few birds, wind, the gravel under my feet. When I got home I recorded some piano, pads, bells, and put it all together.

Yeah, Ableton Move does really sound cool, but unfortunately, I don’t think I will have the time to play with this. It’s way too cool and, I know, will require a lot of fun time! youtube.com/watch?v=0Ra1nhrt6v…

Disabling #Windows #AI features organization-wide using #GroupPolicy.

This will turn off #Recall (the periodic screenshot service) and #Copilot (the AI assistant service).

1. Download and install the Windows 11 24H2 administrative template files: microsoft.com/en-us/download/d…

2. Add the files from C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Group Policy\Windows 11 Sep 2024 Update (24H2)\PolicyDefinitions to C:\Windows\SYSVOL\domain\Policies\PolicyDefinitions on the domain controller.

3. Start Group Policy Management on the domain controller.

4. Create a group policy object with these values:

User Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows AI > Turn off Saving Snapshots for Windows = enabled

User Configuration > Policies > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Copilot > Turn off Windows Copilot = enabled

5. Link the group policy object in at an appropriate level in your domain.

Screenshot of Group Policy Management editor showing the policy settings to turn on, as described in the body of the toot.

The thing that frustrates me about this is that the #FreeSoftware community wastes so much fucking time on #Stallman. So much time and effort is wasted on the eccentricities of one man, even though anyone with a gram of sense can see that this man is unfit to lead the social movement for our digital liberation.

And we are so utterly beholden to him. So much of our language and framing is Stallmanesque, sometimes undeservedly. My biggest pet hate is the narrative that 'you, the user, will be free if you use Free Software'. No you won't, especially not if you are not technically inclined. We are freed together as a community, not as individuals. The system of collaboration and the sharing of our digital infrastructure makes this thing liberating for all of us, not my ability to patch better Esperanto support into glibc.

And it's not like this movement needs a single leader, or that there aren't already extremely talented and dedicated leader figures in our community.

And it's not like there aren't problems with our community that aren't related to Stallman. There are so many people (men…) who make this community less lovely than it is.

But instead of lifting up other voices, or addressing other toxicity, we're stuck endlessly dealing with this one eccentric man.

The Stallman report

October 14th, 2024 Richard Stallman (aka “RMS”) is the founder of GNU and the Free Software Foundation and present-day voting member of the Free Software Foundation (FSF) board of directors and “Chief GNUisance” of the GNU project.

I was reading and thinking about a post discussing the Stallman Report¹ and a section leapt out and resonated for me:

"My biggest pet hate is the narrative that 'you, the user, will be free if you use Free Software'. No you won't, especially not if you are not technically inclined. We are freed together as a community, not as individuals."

And it crystallized a thought that has been knocking around my mind for months: …

Software being Free (or open source, or zero cost, or even "open core" (gag)) does legitimately help developers - those very few.

But there is another role: the folks who specifically assist others to navigate up knowledge and skill gradients, and who work to diminish those gradients: the distro maintainers, the package testers & integrators, the sysadmins, the community moderators.

It is fine to want freedom yourself but we *must* work for each other's freedom too.
