“I don’t think Jesus would ever ignore people being hurt,
-- especially by the federal government,”
said 17-year Ben Luhmann at the wheel, to a reporter in the back seat.
Sam, his 16-year old brother was pounding an energy drink with one hand,
scrolled through a lengthy list of group chats with the other,
scouring for reports of ICE and other federal immigration agents in their area.
Mornings like this have been typical in recent weeks for the Luhmann fam…

How one conservative Christian family is pushing back against ICE
A coalition of activists, everyday citizens and people of faith — including theologically conservative Christians — who have pooled resources and learned new technologies to mount an effort they say is designed to protect immigrants in their neighborhoods and around Chicago.

My morning so far has been spent disassembling the tumble dryer and vacuuming everything in sight. A suspicious burning smell led to us pulling the big red lever earlier!
It has been running for 10 minutes now, and so far, so good. We'll be watching the dryer with great interest the next few times we're using it..

Here is the message from the mother of this family:
(Translated from Spanish)
Hi, my name is Karol Fuentealba. I’m a mom to Jeremías, 18 years old, Emiliano, 17, and Mía, 4 years old. I live in Queens, New York, together with my children. A few years ago I made one of the hardest decisions of my life: leaving my country Chile 🇨🇱 to find a safer future for my kids. For years I was exposed to physical and psychological abuse from the father of my children. Starting over in a different country has not been easy. We’ve had to face many challenges, moments of uncertainty, and sacrifices but every day I keep fighting with hope, because the only thing I long for is to be able to give my children a dignified, safe life full of opportunities.
Today I am trying to raise the money needed to obtain our work permits and my documents. For many people this might seem like something simple, but for me it means everything: it means being able to work legally, to save up to live in peace outside of the shelter where we have been for the past 8 months, and to secure the stability and future of my children. I have managed to save a part of it with great effort, but I still need to complete the amount before the deadline to resubmit. I currently have 10 days to raise that amount, which is $2,240, and I have saved up $700. That is why, with great humility and an open heart, I want to ask for help. Any support, no matter how small, can make a big difference for us. Even sharing this message is already a way to help us. Every gesture of solidarity brings us a little closer to stability and to the dream of building a better future for my family. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to read my story and for any support you may be able to offer us. Your help means hope for me and my family.

New on #blog: "Money isn’t going to solve the #burnout problem"
"""
The xz-utils backdoor situation brought the problem of FLOSS maintained burnout into the daylight. This in turn lead to numerous discussion on how to solve the problem, and the recurring theme was funding maintenance work.
While I’m definitely not opposed to giving people money for their FLOSS work, if you think that throwing some bucks will actually solve the problem, and especially if you think that you can just throw them once and then forget, I have bad news for you: it won’t. Surely, money is a big part of the problem, but it’s not the only reason people are getting burned out. It’s a systemic problem, and it’s in need of systemic solution, and that’s involves a lot of hard work undo everything that’s happened in the last, say, 20 years.
But let’s start at the beginning and ask the important question: why do people make free software?
