Except a few nerds, end users are mostly not using open-source software these days. Only businesses are. Almost all consumer products that were open-source have already lost in competition or is losing. Web browser, operating system, email, messaging, social networking.

What do you think are the reasons for this failure? Will this be repeated in business too? Or will it just take more time in consumer software than it did in business?

What a cool bot! @Chartodon 👏

#HarvardBookStore in #CambridgeMA is my favourite bookstore, and their events are part of why.
I had a great time yesterday evening at the reading+discussion of *The Terraformers* with @annaleen! For example, I learned that a planet can have a molten core and volcanoes, but no plate tectonics, leading to the volcanoes making persistent lava tubes and staying in the same place over long timescales. I love #scifi with real #science

Este es un pequeño monocular que hice a partir de un binocular que era de mi abuelo, un Ultralux 6x. Una de las lentes estaba completamente arruinada y hace muchos años lo corté y adapté para monocular. Por medio de la técnica de proyección por ocular con el celular, saqué unas fotos de la Luna y salen bastante bien #luna #astronomía #astrofotografia #fotografia

FYI gringos, Latin American migrants are not "fleeing communism", they are fleeing the predatory economic policies that Washington has imposed on us (dubbed "The Washington Consensus"). Said policies have been imposed via economic pressure, coup d'etat, sanctions, murder or attempted murder, invasions or plain robbery, like we can see in the case of the Venezuelan gold.

"How Open Source Community and Espressif made it possible to use #RustLang" (#ESP32)

Your #Android phone has a so-called Google advertising ID*, a unique number for your device. Using that, #tracking companies follow and record what you do on your phone, even across apps from different companies.

Luckily, you can now disable the advertising ID to make it harder for them to track you. We recommend doing this to everyone. Here's how it works.

*Unless of course, you’re using a google-free #LineageOS, #GrapheneOS or similar. :)

Auto Flash & Test on #PineDio Stack #BL604: GPIO 8 is already connected to SBC ... But GPIO 8 Jumper MUST be set to Low ... Otherwise the LoRaWAN Auto-Test goes wonky and fails 🤔
