Jeseň ubehla rýchlejšie než som plánoval, ale to nie je to podstatné, čo som chcel povedať. Dosť som totiž uvažoval, ako poňať pokračovanie môjho predchádzajúceho blogu, a teda ako by mala vyzerať lekcia 2.
Nakoniec som sa rozhodol nenosiť drevo do lesa a prichádzam iba s prekladom článku z eff.org - How to: Understand and Circumvent Network Censorship licencovaného pod otvorenou licenciou CC-BY takže to čo teraz budete čítať, nie je moje dielo, iba môj pokus o preklad.

It’s that spooky time of year for all those who celebrate Halloween. And it’s also Diwali for our Indian friends. Whether you participate in either of these or not, there is something we defi…

'It is fine not to like a piece of Free software' and other oft-unstated FOSS-related freedoms

“Free software”, according to the FSF’s definition, embodies four freedoms.

There are plenty more than that - or, at least, many freedoms which are inherent in, or arise from, those four freedoms - most of which go unstated most of the time.

This is far from a complete list, but rather my jottings based on ponderings and observations from the last few days, across a couple of different (intentionally unstated / unlinked here) things.

New blogpost: Thunderbird, Nextcloud, calendar invitations, and unwanted html email with non-working 'confirm acceptance' links

Last week, someone kindly flagged a problem with how I'd got calendar invitations set up, and it was annoying me.

So, over the weekend, I fixed it :)

Aber nicht jede:r möchte oder kann ein #Smartphone mit einem alternativen #Betriebssystem wie z.B. GrapheneOS ausstatten.

Wie man dennoch einen kleinen Schritt in Richtung #digitaleSouveränität gehen kann, versuche ich in diesem #Blog Post zu beschreiben:

"Apple made a fateful decision that mobile-phone internet should be app-centric, not browser/website centric. Then Android copied their mistake."

Many interesting things in this article, but this is one particular gripe I have about today's Internet. I will go to so much unnecessary trouble just to avoid using somebody's app.
