"Without regulatory or legislative change, we risk losing a universal, free and open, write once, deploy anywhere, application distribution and deployment system..."

"Apps built with the free and open #web need equal treatment and integration. Closed and heavily taxed proprietary ecosystems should not receive any preference."

CZ.NIC, the association managing the #Czech #domain registry just removed .CZ domains of several websites spreading Russian #propaganda.
Without any judicial decision. Just because the government and security agencies asked. That's a slippery slope and not the right way to fight #disinformation, sorry.

Former #CloudReady is becoming #ChromeOSFlex. Basically an official #Google desktop #Linux distribution for #PC and #Mac.

As someone using #ChromeOS as a primary operating system for more than a decade, I was really looking forward to this.
I won't be limited by the high-end #Chromebook hardware selection anymore and it will be supported basically as long as the Linux kernel supports it.

Úřední šikana nekončí. Zónu z chodníku se nám podařilo loni odstranit po 2 měsících dohadů. Půl roku jsme mysleli, že už bude klid, ale těsně před Vánoci(!) #Praha9 navrhla "Chodníkový program", který zavádí parkování po celé šířce OBOU chodníků jen o 30 metrů níž. Lidi ať chodí silnicí.
Už týdny tak trávíme noci a víkendy čtením norem, aktivizací sousedů, psaním námitek atd. Pokud chodíte na #Střížkov, můžete je poslat i vy:

Who would want their washing machine to just do the laundry when you can spend time updating it via a smartphone app first??

Is #LG's market research showing that there are customers who would consider non-automatic obtrusive updates anything other than a nightmare? #CES2022

Received 3rd dose today. We got to choose which #vaccine so we went with Spikevax (Moderna) this time for a change.

The vaccination site in #Prague Congress Centre was not organized well, though. There's a queue ticket system *before* the actual registration on a TV screen indoors and a crowd of people in a relatively small space waiting for their turn for about 20 minutes. Especially with #Omicron on the (steep) rise this felt quite risky.

Don't Look Up is a painfully brilliant time capsule of the current state of humankind. That’s what we should be sending on golden plaques into deep space... As a warning.

A bit like #Idiocracy but present-day, with a proper budget and less hyperbole.

BTW, I also kinda liked #TheMatrixResurrections but if I can recommend just one #movie this year it’s definitely #DontLookUp.

Selling some #secondHand stuff, mostly electronics... Plus I'll be continuously adding more in the coming weeks. If you are interested in anything, let me know.
