Google has signed a contract with Israel to supply Tech support used in the Palestinian genocide. A US$1.2 billion deal, with Amazon in the mix.
It's not the first time Google has been implicated in this type of crime.
Google obeys the every command of Trump-musk fascism, the Gulf of Mexico is just the one example that makes you laugh.
So when you have google main sponsor of FOSDEM and debian going dancing to GSoC, and many others in the FLOSS and Open movement doing the same,
I say to you straight out:
You're embracing fascism, you're legitimizing genocide, you're part of the problem!

stopped supporting the i386 architecture recently claiming again and again that there's no more new 32bit x86 hardware to buy despite this was never true: vortex86.com/ produces 32-bit only x86 CPUs and SoC for at least a decade now. 😢😠

Hey #linux#debian people: it’s occurring to me that #rclone might not actually be the best way to do what I’m doing. So: if you had two Debian servers on a vpn, both with 1 gig fiber links to the internet, in cities 100 km apart, how would you go about having shared filesystems between them? Right now I am using rclone mount with sftp. Is there a less janky way?
the two worst "footguns" I encountered when setting up #Prosody 0.12.3 in #Debian 12 were - you're not going to like this - enabling TLS, not STARTTLS (ruins upload.sampledomain.com capability), and trying to use SRV records (made an honest attempt, couldn't get it to fly).
These "footguns" wasted two brutally unenjoyable days of my life, until I scaled back these progressive wishes.

my current little joys besides my family and kids are. Books about #lisp, common lisp itself with #sbcl, #xfce , #linux #debian and old school server side rendered #web sites. And all the web standards there are like html css and js. We have come a long way to have those great tech that lasted so long. I'm really thankful for all those projects and effort that got into it. Please lets make those tools accessible for everyone and simple in design. All that comes after us will have a bad time if we embrace all this complex cloud and build tools to just build simple software. Software is made for humans not mashines. Thanks for listening stay safe enjoy life and the little things and all that is.

Really? You had no problems with having debconf hosted in the Zionist state. You even refer to that illegal entity by the name "Israel". Does the Debian project have the same values as the Zionist state?
I understand a free software project not wanting to be on a proprietary platform, but this is ridiculous.

Bits from the Debian Project
Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run.Debian Project
Did I back up whatever the heck I did to get my server to shut down when it switches to UPS after yesterday's #Debian reinstall? No, of course I didn't! Do I remember what I did several years ago? No, of course not! Looks like this afternoon's #linux adventure is all planned out. My brain is mumbling something about upsmon, but it doesn't have any other details to offer.
Even completely headless, command line #linux doesn't prioritize #accessibility in any way. Today I had to reinstall an entire #debian system from scratch because a drive listed in my /etc/fstab died. That makes #systemd boot into emergency mode, where you get no SSH, no network, no sound, and no screen reader. There is no quick way to force it to try and boot even though drive 7 of 11 has died, and it could absolutely bring up SSH and the network to let me fix it if it wanted to, just like sysvinit used to do. You can't even force systemd to add SSH and the network to emergency mode because of circular dependencies. nofail will only continue the boot if the drive doesn't exist, but if the filesystem has issues...emergency mode for you. In short: if your drive dies on Linux, fuck you. Be able to see, or reinstall your entire system, because nobody in Linuxland gives a shit about #a11y or your needs.
