"Suspect Device" was released on St. Patrick's Day? Brilliant!

Israel displaced 1,000,000 people in Lebanon and is now telling them they can’t return home.

Remember, they don’t hide their intentions, this is about occupying land.

March 25th is #DocumentFreedomDay! In appreciation of the work that @dff and @tdforg do for the free software ecosystem, we invite everyone to crack open @libreoffice Impress and take part in the Open Source Club's #TemplateaThon2026!

While the competition aspect of the Template-a-Thon will be limited to members of OSC here at OSU, we encourage those in the F/LOSS community at large to make all the OPT templates they can.

That's the more positive side. The same however goes for the negative side. Centralisation makes surveillance and algorithmic/Machine Learning/"AI" pattern matching cheap. That's Facebook/Palantir/Google etc's business model. Again. Only true decentralisation drives up the cost of surveillance to levels where it stops making sense. So. Decentralise. On all levels. #SelfHost the sh*t out of your digital presence :)
