Lohnt es sich auch in puncto IT-Sicherheit, mehr Offenheit zu wagen? Ist Open Source ein Treiber von #Cybersecurity – und wenn ja, unter welchen Voraussetzungen?

Darüber diskutieren nächste Woche auf der #INFORMATIK25:
🔹 Luise Kranich vom @bsi
🔹 Gerald Walther von der @Cyberagentur
🔹 Dr. Daniel Gerber von der @OSBA
🔹 Jeanne Dillschneider MdB

Was sagt ihr? Kann die Nutzung von #OpenSource zu mehr IT-Sicherheit führen?

I found an ethical alternative to Google Analytics.
I think its actually quite better.

Especially for static sites like mine.

Umami is, lightweight, open-source, and respects privacy (no cookies, no GDPR banners).
And the Hobby edition is free.

Check out my new post for all the details:

A new BSDCan video has been posted:
Effective Bug Reports, Code Change Requests, and Conference Proposals by Michael Dexter @dexter

https://youtu.be/iaYL_NlU444

Open Source is participatory and BSD Unix is no exception, with its own unique development workflows and events. Bug reporting, code proposing, and event participation are fundamental elements of the BSD Unix community and despite appearances, are open to anyone to participate.

This talk will take a pragmatic tour of effective engagement on these topics with real-world examples and tips for:

Bug reports that are actionable and inspire attention

Code change requests and reviews that are more likely to review and acceptance

Conference proposals that stand out, accurately set expectations, and are more likely to be accepted

The secret is that all of that all of these are fundamentally indistinguishable: You are tasked with marketing your idea to others and must show your work, justify your points, demonstrate sincerity, and ultimately convince others of your initiative, regardless of its size.

I'm at the coolest network meeting for EU gov #OSPO's in Brussels today 🔥🔥

I had an opportunity to talk with Dirk Schrödter, Minister for Digitalization of Schleswig-Holstein (SH), and currently listening to SH CIO Sven Thomsen's presentation.

SH is so far ahead!! They're implementing #Linux desktops, they're already using #Nextcloud and #LibreOffice, and end of this month all their gov email will be migrated from Microsoft Exchange to #OpenXChange.

The image shows a mobile device screen displaying the Fossify website. At the top, there is a black status bar with the time "20:17," a Gmail icon, a star icon, a notification icon, and a battery icon showing 92% charge. Below the status bar, the Fossify logo is displayed, featuring a green square with a white bird-like symbol and the word "FOSSIFY" in gray text. A green navigation bar with options "Apps," "Blog," "About," and "English" is visible. The main content area has a black background with green text stating "Our products." It describes Fossify apps as community-backed, open-source, and ad-free, mentioning they are a fork of the [@]SimpleMobileTools suite. The text continues, explaining that Fossify aims to continue the legacy of simple and private tech. At the bottom, there is a green button with the text "See the Big Picture," and a calendar section with the word "Calendar" in gray text. The URL "fossify.org/apps" is visible in the browser's address bar at the bottom of the screen. Provided by @altbot, generated privately and locally using Ovis2-8B 🌱 Energy used: 0.952 Wh

The image displays a smartphone screen with a gallery application open. The screen is divided into two main sections: the top section shows the gallery interface with a green background and the title "Clean UI" in white text. Below this, there is a smartphone image displaying various photo thumbnails organized into categories such as "Motion," "Animals," "Nature," "Videos," "Food," "Cute," and "Camera." Each category has a count of photos, with "Motion," "Animals," "Nature," "Food," and "Cute" each having 100 photos, and "Videos" having 10. The bottom section of the screen features buttons for downloading the app from Google Play and a "Read more" button. The status bar at the top shows the time as 20:17, the battery level at 92%, and a 4G signal.

Did you know FreeBSD had a lightweight solution for secure process isolation long before container tech was trendy? It’s called Jails—an elegant way to run multiple services securely, while keeping each one neatly separated.

Is anyone using https://karrot.world/#/welcome ( @karrot ! )

it looks like my jam, tho I have done well with event planning sites instead of full group coordination sites.

What #OpenSource and #SelfHost can do. Had an idea, discussed it here. Seemed to rhyme with people. Booked two domains. Created a landing page with #Jekyll and CI/CD from a #git repo on my #Forgejo instance. Created logo with #Inkscape. Added #letsencrypt certificate. Put it on my VPS (Virtual Private Server) running Red Hat Enterprise Linux, (#RHEL) where it is now served with #Nginx. Git repo mirrored to #Codeberg so all can join. In under 8h.

New #blog post. Let's write a peephole optimizer for #QBE that operates on #AArch64 assembly code. Three years ago, we did this for #AMD64 assembly code. But now that I have Arm machines, we can replicate the effort for another CPU architecture.
