#FOSDEM25

2025-05-31

[#fosdem25] Recuperato questo intervento di @ed che sintetizza la definizione attuale di #OpenSourceAI e come ci si è arrivati:
fosdem.org/2025/schedule/event

L'ho trovato chiaro e diretto: certo, la definizione è perfettibile, ma almeno ci ricorda quello che si dovrebbe fare con tutto quello che oggi si chiama #Open e non lo è. #openwashing è sempre dietro l'angolo, cambiano i temi, ma rimane sempre un problema.
Lo vedevo nel mondo #OpenSource, in quello #OpenData poi, e ora in questo: la lotta continua.

A corredo, il thread nella mailing list del Centro Nexa #nexacenter che aggiunge altri spunti di riflessione server-nexa.polito.it/pipermai

I admit it's been *a while* but the @hut23 team finally got around to publishing our suggestions for presentations we especially enjoyed.

All of these were recorded and are well worth the time to watch.

There were so many great talks at and so many we inevitably missed. Please share your own suggestions if you have them.

Our Executive DIrector @karen gave a talk about when to say no to funding at #FOSDEM25. While the financial climate is so difficult for FOSS projects and foundations, it's never right to compromise values or undermine your main goals to take in funding.

Friendica is een platform dat al geruime tijd bestaat en regelmatig genoemd wordt als een "longform blogging" alternatief voor Facebook.

De @fsfe heeft een Peertube kanaal op @fsfe_media waarop een presentatie te zien is die onlangs op #FOSDEM25 werd gehouden. De presentatie is in het engels en de moeite waard als je meer wilt weten over Friendica. #Freindica #Peertube #FSFE

As I told earlier here in a longer thread with @zygoon , Yuning Liang, founder of DeepComputing has donated their RISC-V board for Framework laptops to OpenPrinting on the last FOSDEM. Thanks a lot!!

Now we can test the printing stack on this platform, including making Snaps for RISC-V.

Printing works so far, by the way.

And here are my adventures of setting it up:

3/4 Education track, FOSDEM Junior track, and unexpected Hallway track

Thanks to Peter Mathijssen and Bart Mathijssen from Coderdojo Tilburg, this is the second year that FOSDEM has had a Junior track, where families could come and experience lots of different coding and making activities.

was an incredible mix of great talks, fascinating discussions, and the usual controlled chaos of 8,000+ FOSS enthusiasts in one place! 🎤💻 I’ve written up my reflections on the experience—check out my blog post here: blogs.ucl.ac.uk/research-softw

Thanks to our friend and chauffeur Joek, a bunch of us Turtlestitch friends went on a field trip from Brussels where we were attending Fosdem'25 to spend a day at the Textile Museum in Tilburg in the Netherlands. First stop was the café where we has a most delicious lunch.
