There is no #correct #context to deal with censorship, because #it #would #be #censored. I informed you of a censorious attitude that I have suffered and that you too may suffer from some people in the #diaspora. Many #people “talk” #about #freedom but “act” by #censoring. I’m no longer a boy, I’m an adult: if a person deletes what I write just because he is #wrong and what I say clearly #demonstrates it, then the #censor must be pilloried in the streets. Everyone needs to know that that person is not capable of sustaining a #RESPECTFUL comparison. And there is no other way to say that a person is #bullying others (by #deleting posts!) other than as I am doing, that is, by spreading the word. Because #bullies #ERASE #your #arguments, especially when you are right.

DCC ...reverse!

Some XDCC BOTs shield server ports using "reverse DCC". In particular, https://xdcc.eu provides countless links to files in all languages ​​of the world via the host server irc.scenep2p.net, which uses "reverse dcc".
Unfortunately, there are few programs capable of downloading files through this type of protocol. For example, #weechat is not capable of performing this type of download.

From now, ZigzagDownLoader can download via reverse DCC!

Freetube : Youtube videos, trackers and ads free for desktop computers

FreeTube is a YouTube client for Windows, Mac, and Linux built around using YouTube more privately. You can enjoy your favorite content and creators without your habits being tracked. All of your user data is stored locally and never sent or published to the internet. FreeTube grabs data by scraping the information it needs (with either local methods or by optionally utilizing the Invidious API). With many features similar to YouTube, FreeTube has become one of the best methods to watch YouTube privately on desktop.

FreeTube recueille les données en récupérant les informations dont il a besoin (à l'aide de méthodes locales ou en utilisant l'API Invidious).

my first doodle for #suse logo idea for the #suselogo2023 competition i swear i heard rumour of but see no sign of in searches through suse's site and forum. i say, keep the #chameleon iconic of both suse and #freesoftware or at least #opensource or at least #gnu plus #linux, or at least just linux... or at least just is #cute, and fun to look at.
sadly, part of my fail to find the relevant logo stuff on suse's site, was corporate enterprise bloat, which does not bode well. anyways, here's my first idea doodle.

Software freedom explained in less than three minutes!

Four Freedoms explained in under 3 minutes. Free Software guarantees you the essential four freedoms to use, study, share, and improve the software. These rights that define software freedom help support other fundamental freedoms like freedom of speech, press, and privacy.

Im Oktober wird das Treffen der Unterstützer*innengruppe der FSFE im offline stattfinden. Für den Abend konnten wir Joseph von KDE Eco für einen Vortrag gewinnen. Wenn das interessant klingt und du sowieso gerade in Berlin bist, dann schau doch einfach mal vorbei!

Software hat einen direkten Einfluss auf den Energie- und Ressourcenverbrauch. Seit 2022 hat sich KDE zum Ziel gesetzt, Software bereitzustellen, die dies auf eine Art und Weise tut, die die Umweltauswirkungen von Software für uns und zukünftige Generationen reduziert. In diesem Vortrag werde ich die Arbeit vorstellen, die KDE Eco leistet, um dieses Ziel zu erreichen.Joseph P. De Veaugh-Geiss ist der Community Manager des KDE Eco Projekts. Das Ziel von KDE Eco ist es, Nachhaltigkeit als Teil der Entwicklung und Anwendung Freier Software zu stärken.

Das offline befindet sich in der Lichtenrader Str. 49, direkt am Flughafen Tempelhof (U-Bahn Boddinstraße).

• When / Wann: 12.10.2023, 19 Uhr
• Where / Wo: "offline", Lichtenrader Str. 49, 12049 Berlin

In October, the meeting of the FSFE supporters' group will take place at the offline. For the evening we were able to get Joseph from KDE Eco to give a talk. If that sounds interesting and you're in Berlin anyway, then just drop by!

Software has a direct influence on energy and resource consumption. Since 2022, KDE has the goal of providing software which does this in a way that reduces software's environmental impact for us and future generations. In this talk I will present the work KDE Eco is doing to achieve that goal.Joseph P. De Veaugh-Geiss is the community manager of the KDE Eco project. The goal of KDE Eco is to strengthen sustainability as part of the development and adoption of Free Software..

The offline is located at Lichtenrader Str. 49, directly at Tempelhof Airport (U-Bahn Boddinstraße).

The Free Software Definition

The free software definition presents the criteria for whether a particular software program qualifies as free software. From time to time we revise this definition, to clarify it or to resolve questions about subtle issues. See the History section below for a list of changes that affect the definition of free software.

The four essential freedoms

A program is free software if the program's users have the four essential freedoms: [1]

0. The freedom to run the program as you wish, for any purpose (freedom 0).

1. The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.

2. The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help others (freedom 2).

3. The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others (freedom 3). By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changes. Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
