It's starting to look like I will no longer be employed over the next couple of weeks. I would love to find something in WordPress, Linux, Open Source, Security, etc. Junior roles are okay. Like I mentioned a week or two back, I just want to get back into some work that makes me happy. My current role is stressful, pays terribly, and with the possibility of losing it over the next couple of weeks, my anxiety is going through the roof. Thanks for any help you give. ❤️

No need for spells, eldritch invocations, or inherent abilities to see Thunderbird's dark side. To enable dark mode in Thunderbird:

Thunderbird (hamburger) Menu > Add-ons and Themes > Themes

Feel free to tell everyone you know about this! Repeatedly. :angery:

Hey @kde and @LAS! We are loving the Big Blue Button you set up for us - and we're excited for the Linux App Summit in October! We’re lucky to have such great friends in the Open Source community. :ablobcatheartsqueeze:

When people tell me “You’re gonna regret that in the morning” I just sleep in til noon. Because I’m a problem-solver.

Random question: is there a good open source tool out there for making animated vertical videos? Something that you could use for making Reels or Tiktok videos?

Preferably web-based?

If not, I might have an idea for #Pixelfed stories 😅

🕘 December 2009: Maybe you were upgrading your computer to the new Windows 7, or checking out Ubuntu 9.10. Perhaps you were pouring all your free time into Valve’s ridiculously fun survival shooter Left 4 Dead 2. And maybe, just maybe, you were eagerly anticipating installing Thunderbird 3.0…

Step back into the Thunderbird Time Machine as Jason looks at what made this such a landmark release!

Well, I have good news and bad news.

The bad news is my contract working with the @thunderbird project ended yesterday. :blobcatsadpats:

The good (okay, great) news is that yesterday I signed an offer letter for a full-time, fixed term staff position with Thunderbird! I'll still be working the socials, but expanding into more marketing, ads, and partnerships. I am excited and beyond grateful to keep working in open source with a team I adore and a project I admire. :ablobcatheartsqueeze:

We’re seeking input from #FOSS maintainers as we design a fellowship program pilot. We want to test a support mechanism that addresses structural issues in the FOSS ecosystem, and support maintainers who work on open digital infrastructure in the public interest.

If you maintain open source projects, we would be very grateful if you could take ten minutes to respond to the survey:
https://survey.sovereigntechfund.de/968766

Please also repost and share with FOSS maintainers you know. Thanks!

Everyone said get a Brother printer so I bought a 3-in-1 scanner and printer. There seems to be something wrong with it though. I plugged it into a Linux laptop, opened a document, pressed print, selected the printer, and it printed. Then I opened simple-scan, pressed scan, and it scanned.

This isn't how printers and scanners are supposed to work. Where do I install the drivers that don't work properly etc? This was no fun. I demand a refund.

Freedom in technology must include freedom from technology.

We must not create societies where the price of admission is owning a device controlled by one of two trillion-dollar US corporations.

We must safeguard people’s access to public services and the everyday necessities of life via alternate methods.

Technology should always be a progressive enhancement.

Do not let Silicon Valley privatise your access to modern life.

Happy #TuneTuesday Fediverse! With today's theme of #GhostStorySongs, one epic track immediately springs comes to mind.

A sweeping, intensely emotional, downright heavy song about tragic love, by none other than Nightwish.

This particular live version of Ghost Love Score (from Wacken 2013) never fails to give me chills during its crescendo. And Floor Jansen's vocals elevate this thing to the stratosphere.

Enjoy, rock out, and have a very musical Tuesday!

It's SCaLE21x week! We're dragging out our suitcases and making our packing lists - can't forget the stickers! We'll be at Booth 215 Friday through Sunday, and we hope you come visit us. It's our first year at SCaLE and we can hardly wait. 🐧 🌴

And in a completely, totally, honestly unrelated question, we've been thinking about the kinds of Easter Eggs you can't eat. What are YOUR favorite hidden surprises? Any media counts! 🐣 😉
