Did you that calDAV has a journal feature? I use it to keep meeting notes stored alongside my calendar; no need to go hunting for notes when you can just click on the date the meeting took place in your email / calendar client! I've been using KDE's Kontact for this on my GNU/Linux PC, and I just discovered @jtx for Android which I use alongside @davx5app.

I've just posted a release candidate for #GNU #Autoconf 2.72. Please spread the word and test it as thoroughly as possible **in the next 48 hours**. If I don't hear about any show-stopper bugs I intend to make the final release at about this time on Friday, Dec. 22, 2023.
If I *do* hear about show-stopper bugs, the release is going to be pushed back until end of January 2024 at the earliest because I'll be on vacation for the next three weeks.

Overview of Flatpak’s Permission Models
Flatpak’s permissions can be confusing. Some are technical and need knowledge on how they work, and others are self-explanatory.TheEvilSkeleton
Just did a simple PR that changed a Ellipsis Char that does not display well on Arch Linux TTY (because it is a newer char), to 3 dots. A simple change.
It was not approved (after much time), although, in all the rest of the source code, 3 dots are used (3 dots is used 26 times in the source code). There is only one instance of the Ellipsis char, and it was this that the PR was changing to 3 dots.

Accessibility in Fedora Workstation
One area we realized we hadn't given so much focus recently was around technologies that allowed people with various disabilities to make use of our software.Christian Fredrik Schaller (Fedora Magazine)
This course helps people switch from Windows to GNU/Linux, or more precisely from proprietary to free software.
This course makes all students use LibreOffice Writer, Calc, and Impress. They always save as #OpenDocumentFormat. They practice #LibreOffice on all operating systems, preferably #GNU, in their computing life.
I named this course Teknoplasma.

I rewrote the whole article because I sounded extremely rude before. It's not nice to be rude to developers, whether you like them or not; whether the application is open source or not. Hopefully this revision is respectful and doesn't sound like I am shaming them.

Discord is popular among the Linux desktop community. Thanks to Electron, the framework that Discord uses, it was possible for Discord to port the client over to Linux very easily.TheEvilSkeleton
