OpenSuse
What ever happened to the name change? Last year there were a number of posts saying that they would have to change the name because Suse wasn't going to renew permission to use it. It still seems to have the same name.

Quick everyone, my CV needs padding. Give me some fancy ways to say that I have been no life-ing Linux and BSDs for years.

⚠️ 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.

What if... #EU money to fund #opensource maintenance went to programmers just as competent as European ones, but living elsewhere, where life is much cheaper? Could it give more Europeans one more justification to vote #farright, or not vote at all?

1/3 of FOSS maintainers are unpaid, 1/3 are the only maintainer of their #opensource project, and almost 75% of surveyed #FOSS projects are maintained by 3 people or less
Is an #EU wide Sovereign Tech Fund the solution? Yes, with pitfalls:
