As I've said, I want to make a version of my "My Tech"-site, but this time not for country of Origin, but Open vs. Closed Source.
But before I start, I need two emojis for both. Any ideas? I really think the emojis are important and they should be easily recognizable. What can I use for #OpenSource and what for

Technically you could run it on your laptop if it is beefy enough (or if it is not, but you don’t care about whole planet but a smaller region like your own country)[1] It took me about 5 hours walltime (4 and half of them waiting for downloads of full preprocessed planet to finish, which I used productively elsewhere), and running that docker container was not too complicated (most of the work was reading the docs, setting up HTTPS certificates and redirection[2] and securing it a little) o…

Das Ergebnis: Für viele Büroaufgaben reicht die Open-Source-Lösung bereits aus, etwa bei Mail, Kalender, …

Digitale Souveränität: OpenDesk laut Studie keine volle Microsoft-Alternative
In Zürich wurde überprüft, ob die Verwaltung von Microsoft 365 auf OpenDesk wechseln könnte. Noch sei das nicht der Fall, wichtige Funktionen fehlten.

Frankreich verpflichtet alle Ministerien bis Herbst 2026 zu Open-Source-Plänen. Alle Ministerien müssen bis Herbst 2026 Pläne für den Wechsel zu Open-Source-Software vorlegen. Das Kalkül dahinter ist nüchtern: Wer die Software kontrolliert, kontrolliert die Infrastruktur. Deutschland diskutiert noch. Horst Schulte über eine Lücke, die größer wird.

Since OpenClaw is spreading everywhere and is being promoted by various means for use by the general public. And the general public has no clue. Somethings really bad are going to happen.
Since OpenAI hired the author of OpenClaw and is facilitating its open source foundation, supplying the models and stack, IMHO they could easily get tied into litigation from the first OpenClaw Agents Go Wild incident.

Hey Canadian Bluesky users!
Getting uncomfortable with Bluesky’s inevitable decline into USA corporate, private-equity, control?
Now is the time to come over to the Canadian Social Web.
It is free, open, community driven, and growing fast.
There is a handy directory of Canadian spaces at TheSocialWeb.ca.
And don’t worry, you can even bridge over to Bluesky from your Canadian account so you're not out of the loop.

Finally! Some not-conflicted adults looking at the privacy concerns of LLM bots just slurping up your data without regulation or permission.
“OpenAI did not respect Canadian privacy laws when it trained its immensely popular ChatGPT tool, resulting in the collection and use of sensitive personal information, according to a joint investigation.
The federal privacy commissioner and his counterparts in Quebec, British Columbia and Alberta outlined their findings Wednesday morning into ChatGPT— a chatbot that generates conversational, human-like responses when users type in questions or tasks.
The privacy watchdogs' launched their probe in 2023 following a complaint that the company unlawfully collected, used and disclosed personal information without consent. "
