Open Source Software: The $9 Trillion Resource Companies Take for Granted
Many companies build their businesses on open source software, code that would cost firms $8.8 trillion to create from scratch if it weren't freely available.HBS Working Knowledge
This fairy tale that Pipewire is not yet a replacement for jack is still running and still in Ubuntustudio.
That is sad, that one message of a guy with a very exotic requirement, that doesn't come in place in 99,99% of the cases, is still the reason why people with standard requirements keep frickeling (german word for "massive tinkering") with the very frustrating configurations and the necessary and risky operating system tweaks for jack.
Use Pipewire until you run into problems, that aren't solvable with Pipewire!
But i can't think there are still real modern usecases that this could happen. Running myself Pipewire in a production environment since the late 2021.

Blog post by FSFE's Executive Director @jonaso@diasp.eu :
Policy, why's that?
"... but as Schneier puts it: it's no longer a question of it, it's a question of when. As free and open source software gets into health care, automotive and other safety critical areas, it's getting further into areas of software regulation, and those areas will only expand over time.To meet this need for regulation, we must ensure regulatory agencies and governments are getting the support and knowledge they need to create good policies and regulation, rather than bad ones.
Advertisement: This is something the FSFE is already doing, but we could use your support to do more."
Hey! We are happy to announce that Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) starts to use Diaspora more actively. We will forward all our News and posts from other social networks to Diaspora. But we will also actively share content and are happy to engage with people at Diaspora.
Here you can learn more about FSFE. We are charity that empowers users to control technology. Software is deeply involved in all aspects of our lives; and it is important that this technology empowers rather than restricts us. Free Software gives everybody the rights to use, understand, adapt and share software. These rights help support other fundamental freedoms like freedom of speech, press and privacy.

Mit Open Source gegen Landminen - Deutschland.de - Ihr Link zu Deutschland
Höchsten Respekt gegenüber meinem alten Mitschüler. Supersache.
Als Forscher können wir selbst kein fertiges Produkt herstellen, aber wir möchten die Basis für einen Detektor bereitstellen – sowohl Hardware-Prototypen als auch die Algorithmen, um die Signale auszuwerten. Wir müssen zum Beispiel die Bewegungen des Nutzers berücksichtigen, wenn er das Gerät über den Boden führt. Unsere Arbeit wird als Open Source und somit patentfrei veröffentlicht. Wir wollen humanitär arbeiten und nicht auf Profit zielen.

The Licensing and Compliance Lab interviews Björn Schießle of Nextcloud — Free Software Foundation — working together for free software
Björn was interviewed by the #FSF on #Nextcloud:
More than 30 years ago Richard Stallman founded the GNU Project to enable people to continue to use their computers without giving up their freedom. Today, Nextcloud tries to do the same, we want to enable people to continue to sync and share their data without losing their freedom and privacy. Providing such a solution based on free software is a challenging but also extremely motivating task.
