😡 NFT - I'm in total ideological conflict with the idea AND the technic.
Today I saw my art " Yin and Yang of world hunger" (license: CC non commercial/non derivative) on OpenSea platform posted by someone. What a shame. #nftart is open door to all type of scam...

After 18 years with the Free Software Foundation, I've decided to resign my position as executive director, effective at the end of a transition period. We'll be sharing further details, including information about that transition, and a few more words, in the coming days. It's been a humbling honor to serve this institution, and to work alongside the FSF's staff, members, and volunteers over the years. The current staff deserve your full confidence and support -- they certainly have mine.
Here is a 3min video speedpainting timelapse of an artwork I painted last September. I hope you'll like it!

I have an about 30 page essay in my head that probably nobody would read with a title like "RMS is a complicated figure, but RMS rejoining the FSF board isn't" (ie, it's an obvious mistake). But I don't have time and I'm glad others are showing better leadership than I am.
For whatever it's worth, I did not support the decision to reinstate RMS. I made my arguments and placed my opposing vote; while I was glad I was able to do that I regret not being able to turn the decision the other way.
Next-week, I’ll be speaking at the online #LibrePlanet 2021 software freedom conference about the problem of fan arts. It will be epic, check it out!

@valere, why not let someone else run hostux.social? I bet it wouldn't be hard to find someone competent and willing to pay the expenses.
