I teach, tutor, & write about tech, with an emphasis on FOSS.

Sometimes I also dabble in coding, design, accessibility, & data analytics.

I'm seeing a lot of new applications and amazing content on https://loops.video!

Working to prepare the v1.0.0-alpha release, this will be an exciting weekend for the #LoopsCommunity

🇩🇰 Minister is phasing out Microsoft in the Ministry of Digitalization

「 Digitalization Minister Caroline Stage will begin phasing out Microsoft from her ministry starting next month. The plan is for about half of the employees to start working with computers running a version of #Linux instead of Windows and using #LibreOffice instead of Office 365 over the summer. If all goes as expected, the entire ministry will be free from Microsoft by autumn 」
