We are sad to inform our community that Marina Zhurakhinsakaya died from cancer on Saturday. @Outreachy wouldn't exist w/out her dedication, which continued until her last day. Later this week, we'll share our own remembrance & designate a place for others to post remembrances.

I have a side gig opportunity for someone who can spend 2-4 hours a week doing technical writing, scripting, and project management. They need to already understand the open source landscape.
Looking for your direct referral. DMs open.
More in the thread, pls read it. 1/3

After more than two decades, the official wizard of Christchurch, New Zealand, has lost his job. He was believed to be the world's only wizard on a government payroll, paid $10,000 annually by the city for "acts of wizardry and other wizard-like services." nyti.ms/3FWr3p8

so many good quotes in the press release! āā¦the forced obsolescence of devices like TVs isnāt in the best interest of the consumer or even the planet. This is another aspect of what we mean by āethical technology.ā
This is a pretty big deal - it's an attempt to enforce the terms of the GPL without requiring that action be brought by the copyright holders. If successful, it means that anyone who buys a GPL-violating device could force the vendor to provide source (and potentially damages)

These things keep happening over night. But they absolutely did not happen overnight. True of abortion, true of climate change. We wake up to individual horrors because so many were comfortable/powerful enough to sleep soundly through decades of alarms.
