@cwebber I packaged xautolock some years ago for guix and use it with slock. But my threat model is a slobbery child smacking at the keyboard; idk how secure in practice these screen lockers are.

@civodul GNU is "peace and quiet" for my kids because of that game.

@civodul I write a lot of Rust at work, with lsp-mode, which is quite heavy, especially on dozens of active buffers. This branch of Emacs (which I compiled using guix) has been a huge quality of life improvement and I have had no stability issues over the 6+ months I've been using it. I am profoundly appreciative of the time and work put into this.

@isharefreedom@hostux.social @alcinnz @fsf Software can both respect your freedom and be malicious. Or malware could slap on a license tag that LibreJS recognizes, even if it's false, so that the code runs.

@resist1984 @fsf Last I was aware, we were in need of volunteers to go about making the necessary changes for the update. I suspect that's still the case.

I'll inquire (off-list).

@resist1984 @fsf This is a volunteer effort. I was part of the team that set it up many years ago, but I haven't had time since then. And while this was created in collaboration with the FSF, authority over it falls to GNU.

If you or others are interested in participating, please send a message to https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/repo-criteria-discuss. If you don't hear anything there, send me a message.

@cwebber @mlemweb While I cannot personally relate to your experiences, I can't help but be inspired by them and the example you both set for others; the support and guidance you provide to others; and, as importantly demonstrated in this photo, the essential support you have for one-another.

It's beautiful, and I'm happy for you both.

@mlemweb @cwebber @fossandcrafts I love this idea!

I have too much going on to be able to join in the near future, though I hope to see these continue, and maybe one of these times I'll be able.

Have fun!

I was rather surprised to see this positive outcome regarding the #CFAA:

@libreleah Thanks, Leah. I'll give it a try in the next couple of days when I have a little extra time.
