Qualcuno che ne capisce ha idea se in Italia è possibile mettere su una associazione senza scopo di lucro per lo sviluppo di software libero? (Qualcosa tipo la KDE e.V., per capirci: https://ev.kde.org/, o quella che stava dietro a Mastodon prima dei recenti casini che ha avuto in Germania.)

@nextcloud

Just for my curiosity:

The FAQ says "1000GB for teams"
https://www.nextcloud-one.com/faq/#storage

But pricing says "500GB for teams"
https://www.nextcloud-one.com/pricing/

Maybe this can clarified a bit 🌈

Still, thanks for your work

I'm allergic to the 🚀 (rocket) emoji used as symbol of progress, coolness.

A massive concentrated release of energy¹ is a luxury, a sacrifice. Burning our past and future for a brief joy fuels the #ClimateCrisis and authoritarianism (control over such resources isn't egalitarian).

THEREFORE, create a font where it's replaced by a humane force multiplier, like:

• shoulder stand trio;
• barn raising;
• bike gears.

There are probably better examples of artistic gymnastic and even yoga poses representing the same ideas (trio pike hold? shoulder stand?), but I don't know the terminology well enough to find them.

16 marzo 1953
#accaddeoggi

Nasce Richard Matthew Stallmann, riconosciuto come uno dei principali esponenti del movimento open source.

Nel settembre 1983 dà avvio al progetto GNU con l'intento di creare un sistema operativo simile a Unix, ma composto interamente da software libero. Nell'ottobre del 1985 fonda la Free Software Foundation (FSF).

Pioniere del concetto di copyleft, nel 1989 crea la GNU General Public License, una delle licenze libere più diffuse.

@filippodb @salvatorelasorella In realtà andrebbe benissimo avere "uno dei principali esponenti del movimento del software libero" - siccome parliamo la meravigliosa lingua italiana e nessuna persona fraintende "libero" mentre molte persone fraintendono "free"

boz, 2 months ago (edited 2 months ago)

@filippodb @rms

Premising that I love to say GNU/Linux verbally, I love to say "Libre software," I love to disambiguate "Free software" and I always talk about "Linux" just like a trojan horse to then go deep and explain GNU; I share this irony:

It's a good thing that people "get it wrong" by saying "open source" - because when they do it right saying "free software", 50% people understand "freeware".

#PeerTube - a certain international #Wikimedia organisation is looking for a PeerTube to do live #streaming. Any proposal?

At the moment I'm inclined to propose https://video.linux.it that is hosted by the Italian #GARR non-profit consortium, and also because we have sysadmins there for whatever question/issue, and #FLOSS activists.

Thanks for any suggested PeerTube for this context

Edited: not limited to PeerTube indeed. Anything FLOSS and user friendly would be lovely.

@DavBot Thanks! n00b question: can #Owncast also receive a stream, and re-stream elsewhere (socials)?

This afternoon I had to send some promo material to @fsfe supporters, and to do so I had to find a post box 📮 nearby.

I looked for “Mailbox” in @organicmaps and I got it, just a few meters from the office.

Is there any other #map database that locates even mail boxes? Only @openstreetmap 🚀

I love #FreeSoftware, I love #OpenData! 😍

boz, 7 months ago (edited 7 months ago)

@tommi @fsfe @organicmaps @openstreetmap 🤯🤯 Same! But I was looking for Italian terms like

• Cassetta delle lettere
• Casella postale
• Buca delle lettere
• Coso magico in cui infilare posta

Finding nothing :(
So... :D

Can't install #Ansible for some reason? This might work for you in a pinch (as an example):
