Today marks Linux’s 35th birthday! 🎉🎂

35 years of milestones that took a hobby project from one developer’s announcement to the foundation of much of modern computing

Here is a look at the milestones that shaped its remarkable journey 😎👇

Hello everyone! Jim here.

I just wanted to let you know that I’ll be at openSUSE.Asia Summit 2026 as a speaker. My topic is going to be “Getting the next generation to learn the GNU/Linux system”. I’ll be sharing all the info you need to know about learning to use GNU/Linux and how to reduce your dependency on proprietary software and operating systems (like Microsoft Windows and others).

Join us at the openSUSE Asia Summit 2026 in the Convention Hall at UIN Sunan Kalijaga in Yogyakarta on 3rd and 4th October. Also, come to Room 2 on the first day to learn about GNU/Linux with me — it’ll be a great learning opportunity! Scan the QR code in the image or visit the link below to secure your ticket for the summit.

See you in Yogyakarta at the summit!

I noticed today that an update to the #Linux #Zoom client has made it start proactively reading _everything_ written to the X11 clipboard.

If you keep interesting secrets in your clipboard – particularly, if a password manager uses it as a means of getting the password to where it needs to be – this might be a thing you need to know about!

Depuis 13 ans, @KernelRecipes est la conférence technique sur le noyau Linux en France.

Nous avons invité @ennael , créatrice de l'évènement, pour raconter l'histoire de Kernel Recipes, de son idée autour d'un barbecue à son édition 2026, mais aussi ce qui rend cette conférence différente des autres !

👉 https://www.projets-libres.org/podcast/73-kernel-recipes-conference-noyau-france/

L'édition 2026 aura lieu du 21 au 23 septembre 2026.

I have decided to shut down my #mastodon instance, and all my public facing web services.

This will happen in 3 months time, on November 29, 2026, to allow everyone to backup and migrate.

The reason for this is that I can no longer trust:

- the #Linux kernel
- #Debian
- rails
- most #Foss projects

Additionally, I'm basically out of storage, it is unaffordable to purchase more, and no one is interested in donating to help.

Our bastion of free computing has been poisoned by fascist gen ai slop, and basically NONE of it can be trusted anymore.

It's impossible to vet slop from an ecosystem that is welcoming of it.

This makes it nearly impossible to update my systems, which makes it harder to pretend it's even remotely secure.

I'm fucking devestated - gutted by what has happened to computing, and I just do not have the resources to keep fighting.

Fuck all you #LLM boosters into the sun. May you learn the folly of your way and DO SOMETHING TO FIX IT!

I stopped using #Google and any other #bigtech products a long, long time ago (2015-ish? maybe earlier). It's time for everyone else to move away too, and this includes #Apple, Microslop (#Microsoft), #Meta, #Amazon and many others.

ONLY use #openSource products:
- use #linux
- use degoogled Android ROMs like @GrapheneOS, and many others for any Android phone
- use @fdroidorg as your store
- use #OpenStreetMap clients (like @organicmaps)
- music: @powerampache

Reply here or DM me for guidance

Someone please point me to an OS that I can use as a daily driver, but doesn't have code written by AI clankers.

Preferably an AI-free kernel at the base.

If such an OS doesn't exist, then I am happy to announce that my time with computers and the internet is drawing to an unexpected close.

So, AI-free OS or I walk, never to use a PC or be online again.

When Be Inc folded up I continued to run #BeOS longer than most of my friends. AND when I threw in the towel I bounced around a lot. I tried going back to DOS for a couple months. I ran Gentoo #Linux for a while. Did a stint on Mac OS X on a PPC Mac I rescued at a surplus sale, and finally settled on Debian Linux for a few years.

I settled on #FLOSS OSes like Linux because I wanted something that wasn't going to die like BeOS did, or focus shift away from the user like Be Inc had. I figured FLOSS would always "live" as long as developers were interested in it.

Ive done a few stints with NetBSD and FreeBSD and have distro hopped a fair bit these past five years, feeling increasingly unhappy.

Its clear to me I was right about FLOSS's lifespan. But I failed to realize I think, that it can still loose it's soul.
