DepYou could attempt the non-selfish kind and just donate it all to an independent health/rescue org like Red Cross/Red Crescent.

You could also go the kinda-selfish route like Alfred Nobel, known in his time as the merchant of death. Make an elaborate award&grant giving scheme for exceptional contributions to society in a variety of fields; boosting said contributions for many years. Would only recommend this route if you’ve got more than enough coin to spare, as the overhead of ensuring ethical operation is significant.

If you’ve got a house, you could transfer ownership to a trust/foundation/housing coop, to make it available for living at below market price.

I’d donate to various free software & open hardware projects important to societal improvement; like Mozilla, certain fediverse projects, PostmarketOS, Fairphone, etc. Also anarchist orgs.

Nooooo

Well, there’s REISUB https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key

Neat stuff!

Beautiful :) Is this in Olympiapark?

Definitely the transition from QT5 to QT6. It Looks identical, but has better wayland support and performance.

There are also a few new and hot features which I can’t recount at the moment (it’s 4:30 in the morning), but the pointieststick blog should have the droids you’re searching for

Niceeeee! I’ve tested a few KF6 apps in a rawhide+nightly copr distrobox on Kinoite, and they’re quick

Aren’t most of those at best vulnerable as a leaf in the wind; and at worst literal hacker gateways to your home?

Yeah, when I first got into Linux and FOSS I’d read their articles to get oriented. Even followed them on Mastodon. For a time, the articles and content were good, but after a while I noticed a decline in quality and more talk about proprietary things.

Nowadays, I’ve muted ItsFOSS on Mastodon and actively avoid reading their articles, because they run so many paid placements and low quality stories with non-free things placed front-and-center.

Glad I’m not the only one of this opinion. Let’s hope ItsFOSS changes

Well, sort of. There are plenty of laws that don’t need to be accepted by all UN member states, in order to be effective.

If you get a majority of states, the UN can maybe make it official law for all UN member states. This opens up the possibility of international sanctions being placed on all states that don’t follow the law.

Certainly, even if every rich guy and shady corp in the world placed their hidden wealth in your country; you might still want to be allowed to trade with other countries, and not have your government leaders jailed if they ever set foot outside of your borders

Hurray! Now we just need the majority of other states, too. It’s certainly a step towards a brighter future

To my knowledge there’s less overhead to running graphical applications through flatpak.

I’ve also used a pinetime running infinitime for the past year, and I agree that it’s not exactly feature rich. I like it though.

I’ve heard that ‘bangle.js’ is an open source watch as well, with a decent feature set.

Great post! I’ve often used low cost as an argument for choosing open source software in my [IRL] communities, as the other advantages aren’t that successful when talking to people on a personal level. This post elaborates on those other advantages in a convincing way.
