[01:11] DaemonFC :) [01:12] DaemonFC Nothing like locking the barn door after the horse has bolted. [01:13] DaemonFC I'm guessing they didn't want anyone talking to the news and telling them more stuff. ● Apr 16 [03:54] *jacobk (~quassel@skdysgiaygtcc.irc) has joined #techbytes ● Apr 16 [04:17] schestowitz "Linux Elitism...Again" [04:17] schestowitz x https://kevquirk.com/linux-elitism-again [04:17] schestowitz "Rubenerd" [04:17] schestowitz x https://rubenerd.com/lessons-from-my-linux-fun-on-mastodon/ [04:17] schestowitz # windows apologists ceding ground again and again [04:17] -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-kevquirk.com | Linux Elitism...Again | Kev Quirk [04:17] -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-Rubenerd [04:18] schestowitz "Gates Open Access Policy Refresh Increases Compliance Burden and Eliminates Financial Support" [04:18] schestowitz x https://scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org/2024/04/15/gates-2025-open-access-policy/ [04:18] -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-scholarlykitchen.sspnet.org | Gates Open Access Policy Refresh Increases Compliance Burden and Eliminates Financial Support - The Scholarly Kitchen ● Apr 16 [05:33] schestowitz Daniele Scasciafratte & Mozilla, OSCAL, Albania dating [05:33] schestowitz "[Article 2 years old] [05:33] schestowitz Reprinted with permission from the Free Software Fellowship. [05:33] schestowitz Debian Community News has raised the issue of dating and romance with women from Albania and Kosovo. [05:33] schestowitz OSCAL 2022 is back, 18-19 June 2022, register here if you dare. [05:33] schestowitz Debian Community News has also published evidence that many of the women who received travel bursaries are not publishing code. [05:33] schestowitz It is obvious that many of the women in red t-shirts are being paid to attend the Albanian conferences and pretend to be volunteers. They come and sit in the workshops to make the room look full. They ask questions and then at the end of the day they all disappear. There is no follow up on any of the topics presented. As soon as they receive their cash payment at the end of the day, all these women vanish. [05:33] schestowitz If this is so obvious, why do the leaders of free software organizations continue to give their developers travel funds to go to events in Albania? [05:33] schestowitz If it sounds like a rort, if it looks like a rort and if it smells like a rort (or pussy) then it probably is a rort. [05:33] schestowitz Many free software organizations are registered as tax-privileged charities, for example, using the US 501(c)(3) status, which can lead to serious punishments if the funds pay for holidays and dating. [05:33] schestowitz Looking through photos published by Andis Rado, we found pictures of the the Mozilla Rep Daniele Scasciafratte."
