@pluralistic The EU Commission has launched a Call for Evidence regarding how to break the dependency of US tech and to promote #OpenSource. It seems they got part of your memo! #foss https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=intcom%3AAres%282026%2969111

I haven't followed Thunderbird Pro development super closely, but it *looks* like they've locked in a price. Is this a new detail? At any rate, I'd definitely pay $9/month for a hosted Thunderbird email plan with 30GB of storage, 15 email addresses, and 3 custom domains. (The 300GB of Send Storage also feels fair).

Great work by @jcs.org for a HUGE improvement to #BlueSCSI Wi-Fi Speed- will be in the next release but did a quick pre-release build with his branch if you want to try it out today!

> The result of all that debugging is a 691% speed-up in #EtherTalk speed when going over BlueSCSI Wi-Fi - via jcs

Oh and @twvd already merged these fixes into SnowEmu for a much faster experience there as well!

I wrote a blog about some thoughts I had on modern day #opensource

There used to be the Cathedral and the Bazaar, but now we have Megachurches also

If we look at many of the things that started out in the Bazaar but got big and needed infrastructure, they didn't build cathedrals, they built megachurches

Have you paid your tithe this year?

The EU, as well as every country in the world, should be taking seriously the importance of sovereign systems for communicating and disseminating information.

The ActivityPub protocol is proven and makes many platforms compatible and accessible to each other, allowing for effective information sharing and communication.

The only reason many people do not leave X is that many important services and public figures remain on that platform. Therefore, if countries truly care about digital sovereignty and resilience, they should adopt and promote the use of open source platforms and networks based on the ActivityPub protocol, whether it is Mastodon, Pleroma, Vebinet, or another platform.

I submitted a Pull Request to update MacPorts' snac to 2.87 here:

https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/30679

It's churning through GitHub Continuous Integration checks (1 of 3 passed so far which is a good sign the other two will complete successfully).

It's up to someone else with commit access to merge it.

p.s. the other day I read your napcop proposal and I dig the acronym. ;)
