       Free/#libre software versus open source?#FreeSoftware implies users deserve freedom over programs they run, just like you're free to modify other objects. You can modify source code, run those altered programs, and distribute your changes.#OpenSource implies it's practical to develop software in the open, but there are no guarantees with regards to user freedom. Open source is weaker. Some "open source" software has weird terms that make it non-free.https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.html

       @matiaslavik There are a few conventions, it's not standardized internationally. E.g. in the Netherlands they put the address on nodes like in the screenshot; in Belgium we mostly put the address on the way like @kdkeller suggested. Maybe you could try to find the conventions for your region, if any, on the wiki.

       @matiaslavik Standardizing this internationally? I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for everyone to agree on that one. 😅

       Headlines like “[Richard Stallman] says Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre was 'entirely willing'” are false and deceptive.In the email thread he just says the victim was probably *forced* to present herselves entirely willing. He fully acknowledges that she was harmed by Epstein.This is bad journalism at its finest.

       @Hyolobrika I salvaged it from an installation that's removed. I want to drive it electronically to use it as a cool retro gadget! First it will be part of a project I'm doing with some fellow hackers, a hardware implementation of Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes.

       @solar10 Mapillary n'a rien a faire avec OpenStreetMap. Mapillary Ă©tait une startup commerciale qui permet Ă  OpenStreetMap d'utiliser ses images, mais c'est tout.Cependant beaucoup d'OpenStreetMappeurs sont bien déçus par le rachat. Moi j'avais dĂ©jĂ  arrĂȘtĂ© de contribuer au Mapillary parce que l'appli n'est pas libre, mais maintenant j'ai fait supprimer mes images et terminĂ© mon compte.

       @fsf Very alarming that you're *actively promoting* a non-free network service like this. What happened to the FSF that seasoned every passing mention to Twitter with a disclaimer?

       To resist #Google 's web-breaking #WEI, I put up https://rumores.eu/wei. There's a snippet for your site to gently nudge your visitors to use a different browser if theirs is infected with WEI. That is, it replaces the whole page with an informative message, hehe.:boost_requested:

       @ParadeGrotesque @jtb @js To be honest there's no browser that I can positively recommend. Firefox also ships with DRM, Google as default search engine, promoting sites such as Facebook, it's just trying to copy Chrome these days, and also in other ways Mozilla is doing questionable things.I'd very much like to find a #FreeSoftware #browser that I can switch to and recommend

       @simon"Facebook say they aren’t doing this. The risk to their reputation if they are caught in a lie is astronomical."You seem to have forgotten about stuff like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facebook%E2%80%93Cambridge_Analytica_data_scandal?useskin=vector ?

       @matrix If a friend loses her device again without having recovery, she has to abandon her account. Better to be upfront about this than to leave her in confusion as to why she's "banned", so a client should say:> You've successfully signed in. Before you can send and receive messages with this device, you need to validate it using another device or a recovery passphrase.> If you lost all devices where you were signed in and do not have a recovery passphrase, you should create a new account.

       @pietervdvn Meanwhile the main author of @MapComplete apparently is "Julius K".
