Is there a good #FOSS #animation studio? I'm annoyed that my kids are required to use a big commercial app for a camp that's aimed at teaching them the basics. I'm entirely ignorant here, but I would've thought totally adequate alternatives exist for learning the ropes.

It's rolled around again! Tomorrow evening, 20:00 NZST, is our next virtual #Libre / #FOSS meeting. All welcome - https://meeting.iridescent.nz

Last day (Sep-7) to vote for what talks you want to see at #LinuxDays #Prague.
There are some in English and some in Czech. There are also some very interesting topics around drones, self-hosting, AI testing,  privacy, semantic search and more, and more.

"Witzig": Der chinesische #Autohersteller MG veröffentlicht nach Eingang einer #GPL-Klage eine SBOM. Darin enthalten: Der #FOSS-Trojaner

#saic #foss #mg4 | Chan-jo Jun | 26 comments
WTF - ein Autohersteller listet selbst einen Botnet-Trojaner im Lizenzbestand? SBOM-Fail Wer Produkte mit Software in den Verkehr bringt, muss ermitteln und wissen, was verbaut hat. Wer bei der Softwareentwicklung den Überblick verloren hat, versucht mit Tools zu scannen, was zum Beispiel in einem Auto zum Einsatz kommt. Wenn man dann die Ergebnisse ohne Überprüfung veröffentlicht, kann es zu peinlichen Pannen kommen. Der Hersteller vom MG4 hat auf seiner Lizenzliste die Komponente Teardr…

#Proton bietet 8 Android Apps an. 3 (Lumo, Mail, VPN) davon gibt es nur als #FOSS, 3 davon gibt es nur als kommerzielle Version (Meet, Drive, Wallet) und 2 (Authenticator, Pass) gibt es sowohl als FOSS als auch als kommerzielle Version. Keine Ahnung warum.

Everything I know about #Omarchy I've learned against my will.
Whatever the story in the end will be: it sure looks like Platform Capitalism is gearing up to try and capture parts of the #FOSS ecosystem with their default weapon: flooding morally flexible people with money.

The cool thing about running a #libre / #FOSS business is that we don't have to even think about stuff like this: http…

Here's a question #AskFedi may be able to make some suggestions for. I'm looking for an open source security privacy conscious nutrient tracker - for sporty vegan family member in middle of training for competitive sports. So shouldn't just be calories but also macro (and maybe micro?) nutrition.
There's a tonne on F-droid but hard to know which to choose. Any recommendations welcome

Reading a lot of Linux projects talking about LLMs now, focusing on if they work well enough or not. No talk about ethics, ideals or politics.
If it continues down this path, FLOSS will end up like the Ed Sheeran of software.
