Babylon Bee Suspended by Twitter Over Parody Article About Rachel Levine
We're aiming for a release a few weeks after Ubuntu 22.04 is released next month. Risk of a date skip: medium.

@RegolithL When 2.0 is going to be released? Should I hold back with giving 1.6 a go, or is there enough time to get acquainted with Regolith at all?

Another problem: what should we say when referring to proprietary software?
Many people, especially in the west, view "proprietary" as a good thing. They see "property" and think you don't own free software (yet, you do own your copy).
I propose the term "restricted software".
The other fallback term, which I've sometimes used already, is "freedom-respecting software".
All software I release is also free of charge. That said, I want there to be no (or less) ambiguity about what I mean when I talk about software or hardware. I'm in favour of *freedom*.

Many thanks to Vikings @vikings for donating prizes a server to help us run the conference successfully! #LibrePlanet 2022!
On #AlpineLinux & #postmarketos , I was fed up with the janky way that xdg autostart is used to run things on login, so I wrote a brand new user service supervisor, called superd. It's like systemd --user but without all of the rest of systemd.
Linux 5.17 is released. This is the first kernel version I've been looking forward to in a long while. This replaces the SHA-1 entropy extractor with BLAKE2s, which mean consuming RDRAND is significantly more efficient.

I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
