schestowitz                    <p>Open Source is increasingly used in digital technologies. This required an in-depth analysis of its current role, position and potential for the European economy. Open Source Software (OSS) has become mainstream across all sectors of the software industry over the past decade. Conversely, the level of maturity of Open Source Hardware (OSH) currently appears far lower. However, the business ecosystem for OSH is developing Sep 10 07:18

schestowitzfast. If OSH is to follow the same development as OSS, it could constitute a cornerstone of the future Internet of Things (IoT), the future of computing and the digital transformation of the European industry at the end of the digital decade. </p>Sep 10 07:18
schestowitz                    <p> The objective of the study was to investigate and quantify the economic impact of OSS and OSH on the European economy. The study also identified strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and challenges of open source in relevant ICT policies, such as cybersecurity, artificial intelligence (AI), digitising European industry, the connected car, high performance computing, big data, distributed ledger technologies, and more. </Sep 10 07:18

schestowitz"Sep 10 15:59
schestowitzInstalling Linux on your PC or laptop is easier than you might think, says Christian Cawley, and this article walks through the steps so you can get started with a minimum of fuss.Sep 10 15:59
schestowitzCawley also explains how to run Linux on your machine without installing. For example, you can run Linux in Live mode or in a virtual machine, or you can set up Windows Subsystem for Linux. Sep 10 15:59

Techrights-secThe EC report on Open Source Hardware and Software is just sw patent drivelSep 10 17:33
Techrights-secand fawning over M$ GitHub.  All the premises upon which the report is based seem flawed. Sep 10 17:33
schestowitz-TR2yes, I did not notice until zoobab mentioned itSep 10 17:33

Techrights-secIt was hard to read, overall.   It's not so clearly written and thenSep 10 17:35
Techrights-secthey've picked some bizarre metrics to evaluate and promote.  TheSep 10 17:35
Techrights-secnumbers they are crunching seem arbitrary and unrealted to either the economySep 10 17:35
Techrights-secor to FOSS.Sep 10 17:35
schestowitz-TR2yes, they also speak of "developing patents"... whatever that means. This is an IBM front group, remember... I gave some more examples in IRC and in social control media.... I think they compensate in LENGTH for lack of real substance... like you, I initially yook it at face value, added it to tuxmachines. Some days ago. It's just too long to read.Sep 10 17:37
Techrights-secIt's night and day different from the excellentreport headed by R Ghosh backSep 10 17:38
Techrights-secin 2006.  Sep 10 17:38
Techrights-secAnyway good call by zoobabSep 10 17:38
Techrights-secIt's not only too long to read but has no substance.  Just babble with madeSep 10 17:38
Techrights-secup numbers and cheerleading about patents, especially software patents, inSep 10 17:38
Techrights-secthe form of CII.Sep 10 17:38
schestowitz-TR2There was something else that I wanted to say but forgot while reading/typing, but anyway I left IBM out of it because it is not helkpful to focus on just one company and I also did not mention breton, OIN etc. They are in bed with Fraunhofer too. LF is an unbrella for them. Better get back to finding links now. It angers me to just think about what those corporation entities do... and RMS barely even replies to email anymore.Sep 10 17:42
Techrights-secI hope RMS ia ok,  It's got to be wearing for so many corporate shills to beSep 10 17:46
Techrights-secgnawing away at anything he does.  The best thing he can do is help the FSFSep 10 17:46
Techrights-secand other institutions.  Or else there will be an even worse power struggleSep 10 17:46
Techrights-seconce he passes on.  He remains very important but his role shifts now as Sep 10 17:46
Techrights-seche must ensure that GNU and FSF can stay on their feet and weather what comesSep 10 17:46
