Trump and his new big tech autocracy: Trump, Musk & Co are trying to dismantle the state at high speed. A culture war has broken out. Is democracy in danger?
How dangerous is this and what can Europe do to counter it? Will the EU's democratic rules stand up to the superiority of US big tech?

I had cause to use GIMP today, my first time working with shiny version 3.
Even without using the the headlines features like non-destructive editing and auto-expanding layers, the whole UI has had a polish and feels really nice to use, especially in my distro's violet-and-dark Mokka theme.
Great job, everyone!

R in Maine: Connecting Ecologists, Medical Researchers, and Data Scientists
Donald Szlosek, the MaineR Users Group organizer, recently spoke with the R Consortium about the group’s transition from a city-based meetup to a statewide community and its efforts to engage a diverse audience. He highlighted his work in real-world evidence studies, where R is critical in causal inference and machine learning validation.
I used to love using LocalWP to build websites locally, but now I'm in need of a replacement. Over the past few years, LocalWP has become much more difficult to get running properly on Linux. You can install it on Debian-based and Fedora machines, but you have to fix dependency issues. Fixing the issues isn't difficult but if you're new to LocalWP or new to Linux, you would have no idea how to accomplish this. And Local won't even install on openSUSE, no matter how much you try (I've tried a lot). I posted about these issues in the LocalWP forum and one of the developers told me that Windows and Mac are much more important to them right now and they just don't have the time to fix the Linux issues. When I asked if I could build a Flatpak, Snap or Appimage, they told me that the software is proprietary and they will have to be the ones to do this....When they have time.
If you're not going to support Linux, or allow someone in the community to work on a fix, then I'm not going to use your software. Period.
#Hivemind: do have any recommendations for trustworthy and affordable #transcription software? If it's open source and European even better! Thanks!

Oh, how long could changing one line of code possibly take? A minute? Maybe ten? Surely not over six hours! 
For context, this line caused a bug when using the inline toolbar in a nested (multi-column) editor. That’s because Editor.js isn’t really designed with nested instances in mind and which is why we have a fork with a couple of small changes like this.
Gumroad announced they had become #OpenSource today, but that isn't really the case:
The latest proprietary #VSCode extension that no longer works in non-Microsoft builds of the MIT licensed VS Code source code appears to be C and C++ support.
Your regular reminder: every day more of VSCode functionality is proprietary, and increasingly #FOSS hostile.
Umfrage zur Linux Installation!
Ich möchte herausfinden, wie die Community die Benutzerfreundlichkeit von Linux einschätzt. In dieser Umfrage geht es darum, verschiedene Aspekte der Benutzerfreundlichkeit zu bewerten, darunter die Installation, die Benutzeroberfläche, die Verfügbarkeit von Software und die allgemeine Lernkurve. Eure Meinungen sind wichtig, um ein besseres Verständnis dafür zu bekommen, wie Linux im Vergleich zu anderen Betriebssystemen wahrgenommen wird. Ich freue mich auf eure Antworten und darauf, die vielfältigen Perspektiven zu diesem spannenden Thema zu hören! 
Fangen wir mit dem ersten Punkt an:
Wie einfach oder schwierig war die Installation von Linux für euch im Vergleich zu anderen Betriebssystemen?
