#introduction (ver. mapstodon.space)

Hi, I’m Andy, a planetary geologist living on Planet Houston. I currently work at NASA-JSC for a contractor company. I spend my time crafting maps for Artemis Program. Previously, I targeted CTX for a little over 5 years at MSSS. I mostly use #GDAL, #QGIS, #Python, and ImageMagick to get stuff done but am looking to always learn more #FOSS software.

Other interest include: #StarTrek , #Superman , #DataVis, scuba diving, and hiking.

The second version of my #todo and #timetracking management software is now available!

Features include:
- Time tracking
- Detailed monthly reports
- Editing of previously tracked sessions

Version 1 already managed:
- Todos
- Recurring tasks

So, for me, it's pretty complete, with all the main features included.
It's #opensource and available for Mac, Windows, and Linux:

The European Commission has issued a survey on the Governance and Sustainability of Critical Open Source Software.

The survey hopes to identify "pathways for collective efforts" and make "actionable recommendations for public administrations".

It's a relatively short survey, takes max 15 minutes & provides lots of opportunities to rate FOSS as 'very important' 😛

Try Codeberg — it's Git, but based in Germany (Europe), without all of Microsoft's nonsense. They're also on the Fediverse: @CodebergCodeberg.org.

But wait — it gets better!

Codeberg is open source, and you can even host your own instance. The software is called Forgejo, built by the same folks behind Codeberg, and they're on the Fediverse too: @forgejo.

I didn't know about Framasoft's crowdfunding campaign for Peertube. Or if I did, I probably didn't notice because the milestones were too convoluted to matter to me in my stress.

However, that changed by an article from @linuxmagazine about @Framasoft and its pursuits!

Many in my bubble are all for #FOSS. And still all too often resort to Google docs and Co.

Did you know Framasoft provides alternatives?

I have been busy with work and life as of late, feels like I have been neglecting my #Fediverse friends—looking to meet more! After a major job change, I think an updated #Introduction is in order. Hello, I'm Thomas and I'm the Chief Information Security Officer at MacEwan University in #Edmonton (#YEG). Supporter and fan of #FOSS, #Linux (#Slackware and #Ubuntu). Hobbies: #Photography (#35mm), #GameDev, #Music, #Punk, and #Film. Enjoy #Coffee and #Matcha. Hiya, hiya. Really pleased to meetcha!

IMO, @tshirtmanGabriel Pettier's point is key: “investments” are, in fact,gambling.

AFAIK, I'm the only #FOSS geek to spend time¹ as a part-time pro #poker player, so (hopefully clueful) rant follows:

Most who've never gambled for a living don't yet grok (to quote _Hunger Games_) “when the odds are forever in your favor” vs. (what we call) “bad bets”.

Pro gamblers seek games where they're “the favorite”. Lotteries & (most) casino games have a “house edge” & are “bad bets”…(1/6)

I do all my work on GNU/Linux, and I try to release and contribute to #FOSS / open culture projects when I can. From time to time, I port other people's games to #Linux, but I prefer to help set people up to support Linux themselves.

How come there are no open-source 2D printers?

We have all this open-source hardware—3D printers, soldering irons, single-board computers, and even some phones.

But there’s still no DIY/open-source printer that lets you use any ink without hacks or tricks, one that’s easy to upgrade and expand, without forcing you to buy all kinds of proprietary nonsense. Why?

I wish I had enough knowledge to start such a project. Hopefully, one day I will.


Let's start a discussion!

What do you think are the biggest challenges in creating an open-source 2D printer? What solutions could help overcome them?

Is anyone else tired of the internet’s doom spiral over #Google blocking the installation of unsigned APKs on Android? Yes, it’s concerning. I use #GrapheneOS and rely on F-Droid, so I too care about this. But I’m seeing wild takes that PCs will soon have locked bootloaders and #Linux will be outlawed. That’s… a stretch.

The concern is real, but catastrophising helps no one. #FOSS isn’t going away, and panic only fuels paranoia while giving Big Tech ideas. I expect people to push back, I certainly will. But right now it feels like we’re manifesting a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I'm pretty unhappy about this Google approved developer plan they have announced. One of the main reasons to use Android is the option to side load applications. It concerns me what sort of negative impact this might have on F-droid not to mention the alternative FOSS android platforms that are starting to become mature... Clear power play, but it's worse, if google gate keeps what you can install then governments can control what you can install via direct pressure.#foss https://www.gizmochina.com/2025/08/28/google-android-sideloading-rules-2026-explained/

@jessebot hey! Very cool. I just installed TrueNAS Scale over the weekend and I’m gonna run NextCloud on it. I’m more on the platform engineering side in my day job, but also very into #k8s tinkering. My #foss project that I contribute to is https://tag-env-sustainability.cncf.io/ which might be in your wheelhouse if you’re into #solarpunk

I had been wondering for some time if I was going about things the wrong way by doing #OpenStreetMap workshops (where I teach people to use iD) at #FOSS meetups and conferences.

While I’d also try to cover why #OSM is important and how to use it, most of the time was taken up in learning to edit…which seemed backward. Why would someone continue editing afterwards if they weren’t convinced of the importance of the project?

There was also another thought stewing in my head…most of the people who have attended our mapping parties, and all the people who are regular participants, are all big on #SoftwareFreedom and #privacy. Maybe we should try focusing more on software freedom, and promote OSM in that context?

With these ideas in mind and after discussions with @raviRavi Dwivedi, I decided to prepare a new talk - one focused on getting people to use some #Libre map apps (CoMaps, OsmAnd, and OsmApp). If we can convince people to do that, they’ll probably also start contributing data, and participating in mapping parties…

This time, I added a lot more screenshots in the hope of providing a more engaging experience. I’ve also been burned by conference WiFi all too often, so this time I made many screen capture videos instead of demonstrating websites or applications live.

I gave the talk at today’s FOSS Meetup Delhi. It was far from perfect, but at least I got a clear path towards improving it - I need to cut down the run time and some irrelevant content, so I can present it in 15 to 30 minutes depending on the situation. And of course, there are still more screenshots and video demos to be added.

https://codeberg.org/contrapunctus/osm-presentations/src/branch/production/foss-maps-and-why-you-should-use-them

(All presentations made with #Emacs , #OrgMode , and #RevealJS )

This time I also made sure to arrive early so I could understand how to extend the display using the projector, and use RevealJS’s speaker view. That way, I was able to use the slides to guide me without giving away what I was about to say, and I could speak first and let the slide summarize it afterwards.

Relying on the laptop to act as a teleprompter has its drawbacks, though…you want to be focused on the audience, not the screen. And you want to be free to move around…

⚠️ News/Changes:

BoxyBSD will bring in a feature for more advanced users for our free boxes. Instead of only selecting a set of pre-defined BSD based images, you'll soon also be able to create your install simply from scratch with full remote access to your box. This lets you perform custom installations of #FreeBSD, #NetBSD, #OpenBSD, #DragonflyBSD, #MidnightBSD but also of some other niche systems like #illumos

Unfortunately, this might still take some time and fully relies on the spare time of @gyptazy.

Here is what is missing in the popular #OSM based #FOSS apps (#OsmAnd, @CoMaps & @organicmaps) from being a potential replacement for GMaps.

1. Photos & Reviews are two most important things that are missing right now. @mangroveReviewsOpen Reviews Association and @lib_reviews are here to fill the reviews gap. #WikimediaCommons, @panoramax are here to fill the photos gap.

2. Crowdsourced Real time Traffic data. I couldn't find any #opendata platform yet. Though I saw an empty repo created under the CoMaps project. 🤞

Rainfall v1.5 is released! (https://rainfall.dev)

Rainfall is a Bandcamp exodus tool that lets you upload your music and create a static site using the lovely Faircamp (https://simonrepp.com/faircamp/). You can download this site as a ZIP and host it anywhere on the web, or host it on Netlify with a few clicks.

This is a very behind-the-scenes update. For the technically minded, I've moved from sqlite -> hosted MariaDB, moved to Minio object storage for storing all song files (local volume is now only used for staging faircamp builds), and implemented Celery for background processing of preview generation (because with the Minio changes, it was taking too long).

You can read some of the rationale behind why I built this here: https://travisbriggs.com/garden/bandcamp/

The GitHub repo is here: https://github.com/audiodude/rainfall

All feedback is welcome!

Does anyone know of a Gnome extension that makes numbers appear under the apps in the dash? The SUPER+NUMBER activation really suits me, but I have enough apps on there that I end up having to count them half the time, so a little number underneath each one would be great. I've done a web search myself, of course, and not come up with anything yet.
