Raindrops On The Windscreen
November, and an impressive storm front sweeps across Lagarfljót lake near Egilsstaðir in eastern #Iceland. Although it looks apocalyptic, it headed out to sea before any damage was done.

We need a free data license that stipulates that “if you use this data, your code must be released under so-so-and-so license”. Where the license in question is a share-alike free software license like AGPL.
This will protect the freedom of the data and prevent it from being enclosed behind proprietary APIs, etc., by corporate interests.
(As such, this will not be endorsed/will be strongly opposed by the “open data” folks for whom “open” means “open to be privatised.”) fediscience.org/@petersuber/11…
So copyright covers use and not just copying. Good to know.
If you load this spreadsheet into Microsoft Excel, you have placed Excel under the GPL. Good luck with that, it should totally end well for you.

Kids who start to learn programming should get to know the concept of #freesoftware and its big opportunities.
These aspects are dealt with in the book „Ada & Zangemann“ (FSFE/O’Reilly).
Now the Free Software Foundation Europe has initiated a project to bring the story of this children’s book to life in an animated movie:

Sure we are project sponsors, as all software that we develop or maintain for our customers is published as #freesoftware.
International Colugo Day is celebrated on 15 September each year.

‘Data centre emissions likely 662% higher than big tech claims. Can it keep up the ruse?’
But never mind. Once we’ve shifted the rest of our reality into the cloud, we won’t be needing the real world, will we. Will we?
Commissioner Thierry #Breton has resigned from the @EUCommission and will not run again. Sounds like he is pretty pissed.
I am very curious to see where that will leave #DSA and #DMA enforcement. 😬

@aral It's a tough question, Breton has indeed been a mixed bag:
He has pushed for competitiveness over competition (e.g. in telcos) and digital sovereignty for him mostly seemed to mean building a European Google.
But on the positive side, he has also supported swift enforcement of the DSA & DMA and has never seemed scared by the powers one faces when taking on big tech firms.
Hmm, based on that, I wonder how much of it was him protecting the interests of EU Telcos against those of Silicon Valley Big Tech.
I mean, I already have very low expectations when it comes to the EU Commission :)
i was literally just searching splatfest news
Though I'm never sure these days if these truly are things people also ask and/or to what extent the search engines or llms mess with the content and frequencies.
what does Elon Musk do while his companies take on Government contracts?
He tweets dangerous, irresponsible, idiotic and incendiary suggestions that assassination attempts on Donald Trump are orchestrated by the President and Vice President of the United States.
Make no mistake, that’s what Musk is suggesting.
