"Just because a piece of software is #OpenSource it does not mean the software is secure." --me

I've been saying that for years and it really bothers me to hear developers and users alike quip that because a package is open source it automatically means it's more secure than a comparable package that is closed-source.

As EricS. Raymond, one of the people behind open source, said in Linus's Law, "Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow." If no one is looking, though -- as appears to be the case here — then simply because a codebase is open, it doesn't provide any safety or security at all.

ZDNET · Hacker slips malicious 'wiping' command into Amazon's Q AI coding assistant - and devs are worriedBy Steven Vaughan-Nichols

Microsoft wird immer mehr zu einem Sicherheitsrisiko. MS Exchange 2019 bekommt nun bald keinen Support mehr.

MS beabsichtigt, alles in die Cloud auszulagern. Verschlüsselung von Mails? Fehlanzeige.

Nicht nur, dass firmeninterne Daten nichts auf fremden Servern verloren haben, jede firmenspezifische E-Mail kann wie eine Postkarte von jedem gelesen werden, der will und es auch kann.

Daher: VERSCHLÜSSELT ENDLICH EURE E-Mails!

Christians Blog - Online seit 2011 · Warum es immer wichtiger wird, seine E-Mails zu verschlüsselnUnverschlüsselte E-Mails sind so unsicher wie eine Postkarte, die jeder unterwegs lesen kann. Wer seine digitale Kommunikation schützen und Datenschutz ernst nehmen möchte, sollte auf echte Ende-zu-Ende-Verschlüsselung setzen – damit nur der vorgesehene Empfänger die Inhalte lesen kann.

FreeBSD (in XFCE) Backlight(8) change?

fn-keys to change backlight where not working out of the box on Acer Aspire 5 after installation.

Here's how you do it:

Create Keyboard-Shortcuts in Application -> Settings -> Keyboard -> Application Shortcuts, with the following commands:

To increase:
backlight incr 10

To decrease:
backlight decr 10

🎉 Huge shoutouts to two amazing contributors from Korea's #OSSCA program who just made #Fedify even better!

First, @z9mb1 delivered PR #321, adding a handy -o/--output option to fedify lookup. Now you can save lookup results directly to files instead of just printing to terminal—a nice quality-of-life improvement for analysis and scripting workflows.

But the real showstopper is @joonnot's incredible PR #283, which introduces the brand new @fedify/testing package! This massive contribution (2,014 lines across 20 files) brings MockFederation and MockContext classes that completely transform how we test federated applications. No more complex setups or actual network requests—just clean, straightforward unit testing with activity tracking, inbox simulation, and queue-aware testing capabilities.

These contributions solve real pain points and showcase the amazing talent emerging from the OSSCA program. Both features will be available in the upcoming Fedify 1.8 release. The future of federated software development just got a lot brighter! 🚀

@lolaodelola #OpenSource and #FreeSoftware maintainers deserve (and need) to be paid, if free software is to be reliably maintained as corporate users demand that it should be.

Dual licensing is one mechanism to do that.

I prefer the use of the #GPL, however, even if it deters corporate use, precisely because of its virality. Yes, corporates MAY use my work -- provided that they share theirs.

I'm working to support RustDesk on OpenUEM🥳 You'll be able to request to open RustDesk client on your remote machine, configure it to use your self-hosted RustDesk Server and have a link to open your RustDesk app from OpenUEM's console #rustdesk #OpenSource
