Hi folks, I'm trying to jumpstart federation on my little gotosocial instance and get a more full feed of things to read and interact with.
I could use your help. If you could boost this, I would appreciate it. If you see this and favorite it, I will follow you if your interests seem to align with mine.
I'm not asking for follows... rather I'm asking for you to help me shout out into the ether that I'M looking for people to follow. My main interests are going to be hashtagged below.
By the way, the way hashtags work here is that currently, if I search, I only see what my server is already knows about... which would mean just the folks I follow, since I'm a single-user instance. Not very helpful 
I will also be using one of my apps that can load the main feed from other servers, to see if I see something interesting. If you see a follow from me and come here to check me out... I mean you no harm and I come in peace.
Thanks all!

„Bei Fachverfahren drängt sich #OpenSource geradezu auf“ – lautet die Antwort unserer Geschäftsführerin Jutta Horstmann (@smphr) auf die Frage von Susanne Ehneß, ob es überhaupt möglich wäre, die #ÖffentlicheVerwaltung komplett auf #OSS umzustellen.
Warum das so ist und welch zentralen Beitrag Open Source als Werkzeug für mehr #DigitaleSouveränität leistet, erläutert Jutta im Interview für die aktuelle Ausgabe der #eGovernment Verwaltung Digital.

17 april organiseren wij ism @opensource en @codefornl weer een kennissessie bij Dev.loer in Utrecht.
Hoe bouw en onderhoud je een community rondom een open source product? Hoe zorg je ervoor dat de community echt bijdraagt aan innovatie en doorontwikkeling?
Esmeralda Tijhoff en Bas van der Ven (DICTU Web&App) nemen je mee in hun ervaring met de community rondom het generieke Drupal Intranet.

Mag ik jullie ervan verwittigen dat er weer een hele toffe kennissessie is op 17 april?

EV∆ ∆ΠΠ∆ Overheard on recent project meeting with app devs, a minor tragedy of 'slipped lips sink ships',
> "We're shipping it for Lindows and Winux" 
Every other mapping app can manage a "north is up" orientation, but as far as I can tell this app cannot, and I did a lot of messing around with app settings in the process. It's also hit or miss at being able to pinpoint a location even when given a street address. Not to mention that it took me a few tries just to figure out how to make it give me point to point directions (which only sometimes conform to an average person's route).

I ditched Google Maps for Organic Maps and all I have to say is if I can't get this app to work, it is under no circumstances appropriate for normies.
The last time I mentioned this on here I was informed that I could simply write any new feature I wanted because FOSS. I am not a programmer and I shouldn't have to be one in order to have an app that does what it claims to do.

Giftig #PFAS bedreigt voedselketen, ook Osse polder in beeld voor extra onderzoek
In de Osse polder stroomt giftig PFAS. Steekproeven van de Nederlandse Voedsel- en Warenautoriteit (#NVWA) hebben nog geen zorgelijke hoeveelheid daarvan in melk aangetroffen, maar dat PFAS opduikt in melk van koeien die grazen langs de besmette Hertogswetering is niet uit te sluiten.
Die neue österreichische Bundesregierung muss #sparen.
Mein Vorschlag zu einer #Strategie im #Digitalbereich:
5% der #Kosten für #Softwarelizenzen (von Bund, Ländern und Gemeinden) werden permanent in #Opensource Projekte investiert.
Im #Bildungsbereich (Schulen und Universitäten) wird begonnen im #Unterricht auf #Software zu setzen, die den Anwendern schon gehört und die nach der Ausbildung weiter frei verwendet werden kann.
Behörden ziehen nach Möglichkeit nach.
Freie Werkzeuge machen freie Menschen!
Just finished the #RPi board support with #uboot #EFI in our beloved MTDA. First tried with the RPi EDK2 implementation, but that is far from being usable (who had the idea to convert a DT into ACPI tables???).
Even with Linux 6.12 many things do not work OOTB, like the RPi DTBOs cannot be used with the Kernels DT. Hence you manually need to port them - which is not trivial. #debian #linux #oss
![Well... the EDK2 attempt was a dead end. While it is advertised as the more "modern" solution and some distros already use it, it is definitely not suitable for more complex cases like MT...](https://s3.c.im/cache/preview_cards/images/038/696/593/original/72e1112a8e212d86.png "Well... the EDK2 attempt was a dead end.
