Some interesting (to me) stats from #FODEM

Talks about NFTs: 0.

Presentations about the Metaverse: None.

Cryptobros inviting me to a party in order to schill their coin: Zip.

Really enthusiastic LLM users describing how AI has improved their OSS codebase: Zilch.

People complaining about pronouns and codes of conduct: Nada.

"Ironic" hats saying "Make xyz Great Again": Conspicuous by their absence.

What did *you* think was missing from FOSDEM?

@matthiasott I'm listing AI (and other poorly behaved crawlers) in my robots.txt while also sending them a 403 to anything else they request should they not honor that. I also had to block all traffic from China due to bots fetching endless pages sequentially. https://www.coryd.dev/posts/2026/blocking-entire-countries-because-of-scrapers

I used to live in Texas. I would get so mad at dudes I knew that downplayed the confederate flag, until I realized that their textbooks literally lied about the reasons for the civil war!

Showing them the articles of secession blew their mind. Some stopped rocking the flag. 👍🏿

Imagine how much less racist the US would feel if 10% of all confederate flags just disappeared. Disappeared!

An abolitionist designed the statue. A group of abolitionists paid for the statue. There's a plaque at the feet telling everyone what it's for. They named it the Statue of Liberty. It's arguably the largest anti-racism monument in the US, and the most recognizable anti-racism monument in the world...

Except people don't even know it's an anti-racism monument. They think it celebrates the huge influx of white immigrants from Europe that came to the US.

Happy #BlackHistoryMonth !

You know the drill by now. I don't like talking about Black history. Americans know Black history. I want to talk about white American history. In other words, racism, and the erasure of both positive achievements of, and injustices suffered by, non-white people. That's what people don't know.

Try this: Ask your white US friends what the statue of liberty celebrates.

Now ask your Black friends. Or French folk of any color.

The kind of "out of the box" ethical thinking the world needs. 🤔💯❤️

No tengo nada contra los millonarios extranjeros que vengan aquí y no especulen con la vivienda ni traten como el culo a los trabajadores ni monten digitales de bulos para conspirar contra nuestro gobierno democráticamente elegido.

Dentro de lo sórdido que es todo, es gracioso lo de que Elon nos dijera que sí, Epstein trató de convencerle varias veces para ir a la isla, hacer negocios y tal y el no quiso porque le dio mal rollo ese señor.

Y ahora se ve en los emails que era Elon el que pedía de forma tan entusiasta esas invitaciones que incluso si fueran fiestas normales sin nada ilegal da un cringe que lo flipas, y Epstein el que le dice "bueno anda te mando un helicoptero y ya hablamos" y le invita un par de veces más, y como el tío sigue insistiendo en autoinvitarse a otra fiesta al final Epstein le dice a la Ghislaine "mira, encárgate tú" para que ésta le diga que es una pena pero no va a haber más fiestas...

If Rachel Reeves cannot see that university student loans are becoming a totemic issue among graduates, then she may be heading for her own Nick-Clegg-moment when one decision prompts a haemorrhaging of the graduate vote (from Labour).

The problem is that Labour still thinks they can bank on there being no vialable alternative on their left flank; which with Zack Polanski leading the GPEW, is no longer true; another Labour miscalculation?

Todd C. Miller has been maintaining the #sudo codebase for over 30 years. This is exactly one of those cases where an entire critical infrastructure is held together by the work of a single volunteer who apparently can’t find anyone willing to sponsor him for some financial support. #opensource #linux #foss #GNU
