    #GNU #Taler critiques European Central Bank position papers about CDBCs, proposes alternative

    https://taler.net/en/news/2022-03.html -- Central Bank Accounts are Dangerous and Unnecessary

    https://taler.net/en/news/2022-05.html -- Who comes after us? The correct mindset for designing a #CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency)

    Taler is intended to be "an anonymous, taxable payment system using modern cryptography", but it does not claim to be a new currency.

    Today it's been 10 years since the first #GNU #Guix commit! 🎂

    Some of the 600+ people who made it possible wrote their story:

    The #GNU #Shepherd finally getting concurrency via #Fibers!
    https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2022-03/threads.html

    Now with preliminary inetd-style service support, hopefully soon with systemd-style socket activation.

    Concurrent programming with Fibers in #Guile is delightful!

    That's on the #Win10 laptop. I already use #Okular (and occasionally #Evince, but I usually regret it) to view #PDF files on my #GNU + #Linux laptop.

      I have found this to be well written. If you still haven't read anything about Appimages, Snaps and Flatpaks, it could shed a reasonably nice beam of light on their respective drawbacks. https://ludocode.com/blog/flatpak-is-not-the-future

    @geniusmusing @lxo This is important. #GNU #Jami used to only send when both parties were online simultaneously. If the parties in the conversation are in different timezones, that may not happen often.

    Users reasonably want end-to-end encryption (E2EE), but still want some basic usability.

    (The experience back in the GNU #Ring days was pretty bad. Even today, none of my contacts will reconsider it.)

    Uses #LXC and other standard technologies.

    https://www.fsf.org/news/update-to-the-fsf-and-gnus-plan-to-move-irc-channels-to-libera.chat [www fsf org]

    #FSF and #GNU #IRC channels to leave #Freenode. It was supposed to be an orderly transition with officially sponsored channels to be replaced with unofficial '##channelname' channels, but Freenode seized those channels suddenly.

    Later on, they changed server software without transferring the user & channel databases, so every user and project choosing to remain there had to re-create from scratch.
