I'm super excited about this partnership. Glad to see GrapheneOS working with Motorola motorolanews.com/motorola-thr...
Amazing points here. As a music collector, I can only say that hunting for vinyl and browsing new releases on Bandcamp can bring magic back to music discovery. Artists also get far more than on those streaming platforms. Winβwin.

Decided to spin up #Linux ( #Fedora #KDE) on my wife's old Mac. It's a #MacBook Pro 15 from 2014. It was abandoned by Apple, getting no updates and was running super slow. But an i7 and 16GB of RAM sounded plenty to me. Turns out, it now runs and feels snappier than my MacBook Pro from 2019. π
A thorough (though slightly dated) article on hardening Signal and adjusting phone settings by @privacyguides.org (www.privacyguides.org/articles/202...) can be an excellent starting point. They also mention an enhanced fork of Signal, Molly (molly.im), which some people might find useful. #privacy
Taking this bridge and the route by the water down to Muiderslot is one of the nicest day trips from Amsterdam. It can be easily done with an old 'omafiets' as we did with my wife:
One thing I like to do is collect quirky, fascinating sites. Like this one, that features 5 million YouTube videos, made between 2009 and 2012 when iPhones simply send videos with a filename IMG_XXXX.

During the AWS outage, Eight Sleep mattresses went rogue π
They woke people up with flashing lights, cranked heat to high levels, and locked into upright positions.
Welcome to 2025, where your subscription mattress freaks out because servers went down.

Some time ago, I wrote an article about open source rise in 2025 for a company I cooperate with: www.kabi.info/en/News/open...

Thinking of the state of social media or projects like wikipedia, this part specially resonated:
"...commons can exist without police, but resources cannot...
...By definition, resources call for defense by police. Once they are defended, their recovery as commons becomes increasingly difficult."
Computers are doing to communication
what fences did to pastures
and cars did to streets.
An excerpt from an amazing essay "Silence is a Commons" by Ivan Illich, published back in 1983, but very relevant today.
