"Free Unix!" This was the slogan with which Richard Stallman, on September 27, 1983, announced the plan to develop the GNU System. "I consider that the golden rule requires that if I like a program I must share it with other people who like it. [...] I have decided to put together a sufficient body of free software so that I will be able to get along without any software that is not free." https://www.gnu.org/gnu/initial-announcement.html #GNU40

Why should we insist on free software in education? "[B]ecause it is the only software that allows them to accomplish their essential missions: to disseminate human knowledge and to prepare students to be good members of their community." Read more: https://u.fsf.org/1dz

JShelter0.15 is out now! This update includes an optimization and a Russian translation! When you are browsing you need extra protection. The #JShelter extension should be part of that protection. https://jshelter.org/versions/#0.15
Exciting news in the #FreeSoftware world: gnuboot-0.1-rc1 is now out. It's a fantastic step forward as GNU Boot provides free boot firmware for specific computers, thus eliminating another piece of nonfree software. Together, we're inching towards a world where users can fully control their computing. #GNUBoot #SoftwareFreedom 💻

Il n'y a pas que Fabien Roussel à la fête de l'huma. C'est plutôt l'occasion de discuter avec plein de gens qui sont susceptibles d'être intéressés par la question, mais qui n'ont pas l'occasion d'entendre parler de numérique libre :)

We call it AI because no one would take us seriously if we called it matrix multiplication seeded with a bunch of initial values we pulled out of our asses and run on as much shitty data as we can get our grubby little paws on.

When we're as surrounded by streaming platforms as we are now, it's easy to forget that the DRM-free life still exists. Even now, there are dozens of record labels, publishers, and online retailers that refuse to abuse their customers. Learn about them in the Guide: https://u.fsf.org/1lr #EndDRM #DRM

Maintien de l’ordre : la revanche des #drone

Stoppé après le Covid pour cause de vide juridique, le déploiement des drones par les forces de l’ordre a repris de plus belle…
Le Conseil d’État a toutefois suspendu un arrêté … estimant que … les Pyrénées-Atlantiques disposait d’autres moyens moins intrusifs pour surveiller un passage de la frontière avec l’Espagne. Pas de quoi rassurer #LaQuadrature du Net : « … un préfet imagine déjà équiper ces drones de #LBD »
