I thought this game was well known but I haven't seen almost any mentions of it recently. It's very weird for a FOSS enthusiast not to advertise one of the best open-source games of all time so here I am trying to make it spoken about again.

Disclaimer: this game may be addictive for some individuals. Player discretion is advised. If you notice any symptoms of addiction while and/or after playing the game, stop playing immediately and consult with your doctor. Untreated gaming addiction may result in severe consequences such as digestive disorders, social behavioral disorders, loss of job, and depression.

This the developers version so it probably comes with a bunch of bugs. test it and report back to the devs.

Bitwarden isn't going proprietary after all. The company has changed its license terms once again – but this time, it has switched the license of its software development kit from its own homegrown one to version three of the GPL instead.

The move comes just weeks after we reported that it wasn't strictly FOSS any more. At the time, the company claimed that this was just a mistake in how it packaged up its software, saying on Twitter:

It seems like a packaging bug was misunderstood as something more, and the team plans to resolve it. Bitwarden remains committed to the open source licensing model in place for years, along with retaining a fully featured free version for individual users.

Now it's followed through on this. A GitHub commit entitled "Improve licensing language" changes the licensing on the company's SDK from its own license to the unmodified GPL3.

Previously, if you removed the internal SDK, it was no longer possible to build the publicly available source code without errors. Now the publicly available SDK is GPL3 and you can get and build the whole thing.

Discovering your application by usecase validation. Make test writing fast, understandable by any human understanding English or French. Open source under MIT license.

Unfortunately, due to the complexity and specialized nature of AVX-512, such optimizations are typically reserved for performance-critical applications and require expertise in low-level programming and processor microarchitecture.

The Abstract Wikipedia team is working toward a rewrite of our backend services in a different programming language, likely Rust. Node/JS has served us well, but we have run up against some [WebAssembly System Interface] limits that would be best dealt with by switching to a different ecosystem.

Opensource geodata of celltowers, wifis and bluetooth beacons is crucial.

It allows apps like UnifiedNLP to give the OS the location data it needs, without relying on GPS Sattelites.

GPS can be tampered with, and A-GPS is not privacy friendly at all.

UnifiedNLP is only found included in microG, which is pretty insecure.

But GrapheneOS devs are working on a regular user app that serves network location data, using Apple, Apple (proxied) or a local BeaconDB database!

BeaconDB is a new service to replace MozillaLocationServices which has shut down unfortunately.

Apps like TowerCollector dont yet support it, but NeoStumbler does, and also has more advanced features.

Collect network info in your region, and in the future you (and everyone else using it) dont need GPS anymore!

Saw this one in a YouTube video and found it pretty nice. I won't tell what video it was though because Lemmy doesn't like such kind of them.

This week, the Open Source Initiative (OSI) made their new Open Source Artificial Intelligence Definition (OSAID) official with its 1.0 release. With this announcement, we have reached the moment that software freedom advocates have feared for decades: the definition of “open source” — with which OSI was entrusted — now differs in significant ways from the views of most software freedom advocates.

Idk why I never heard of this one before but it got an update recently so it appeared in my Droid-ify feed and now I'm sharing it. Hopefully someone finds it useful.
