Just in time, the #EUCommission has opened a public consultation on the revision of the #DMA effectiveness, with a deadline for Sept 24.

It's a great occasion to propose actual adjustments to the DMA text, like some to tackle the pre-install advantage, the systematic blocks of #Google Play Protect/Play Integrity, etc.

We believe we can achieve stronger impact if the Commission receives this kind of suggestions from many fronts, and not just from #FDroid.

It's money well spent

Hmm, @Blender and @godotengine's DOGWALK is open source, yet the source code is only available behind a paywall.

I suspect an simple error. But it does highlight the slight difference between code access, binary access and asset access. There are many reasons you might want to read the code beyond wanting it as an asset.

Time is rare when you're figuring out how to #CNC the best way, replacing #ip drivers and proprietary software controller with #FreeSoftware like #grbl + #arduino, while finding best #CAD & #CAM alternatives to commercial #fusion365 and #vcarve tools in #extensions for @inkscape like #gcodetools, #addons for @Blender like #fabexCNC and last but not least the universal gcode sender #UGS as perfect post-processor for a free workflow.

That assembled like a clockwork makes a lot of noise, dust, and work, but beautiful sculptures. What would you cut out of wood first?

This vulnerability was disclosed to Google in October 2024 and Android still hasn't fixed it. Security researchers should report vulnerabilities to GrapheneOS in addition to Google. This now joins our many other GrapheneOS exclusive fixes for serious Android vulnerabilities.

After our Android 16 port was completed yesterday, we started fixing an Android tapjacking vulnerability disclosed last month:

We have a fix implemented and it will be included in our next release, likely with the monthly Android 16 update tomorrow.

It looks like Google wants to do the same thing that Microsoft has done with copilot
That means they want to snoop through your whole Android with Gemini

Details on how to disable it are on this blog post however it doesn't work on at least two of my Androids because I can't even find the app yet!
