Using it as an adjective in some cases is fine, never use it as a noun, unfortunately due to assholes using it that way it now has a negative conotation.

Don't take down your Christmas lights (inside at least). Make hot chocolate at home, create rituals for yourself

Parliament's position on the proposed law will now be against chat control, but the fight is not over: next we have to negotiate with member states. It's vital we keep the pressure on governments to end this madness.

Yesterday, the traditionally highly conservative legal affairs committee voted to end geo-blocking of films and series in some limited contexts. It's a tectonic shift from the previous position of the legal affairs committee, and comes ahead of today's vote in the more progressive Internal Market & Consumer protection, where MEPs will call for a gradual abolition of geo-blocking.

This will be over soon. When the EU's Data Act comes into force, car manufacturers will be obliged to allow access to vehicle data.

Glad to see this has made it into the browser! This has been a 🇪🇺 funded project for years now!

God why are people here so obsessed with optional telemetry. Fedora aren't selling your secrets to advertiser's, they are just trying to create a better experience for users, and you can always opt out.

Has it ever occured to you that it is also good to give back to the open source community?

You are asking the wrong question, my friend. You should be asking what doesn't systemd do?

Gonna come out with a controvertial take here, but I am actually fine with anonymised usage stats/telemetry if they are solely designed to improve the product, and as long as there is an opt-out. Many people are get furious about telemetry in firefox or distros, but when i ask what their precise issue is with it, can give no answer.

Sending these stats is also a contribution to the projects that help improve software.
