    Imo, the L should be a series of progressively smaller Ls tucked into each other at the right angle, and the O should be a series of progressively smaller concentric circles.
    Also after seeing that I have to keep doing double-takes reading my own post, none of the letters look right

    Are you not mistaken here? Does FOSS not mean “free as in free speech, not as in free beer”? I.e. it does not necessarily mean offering the software to you for zero cost, it means that once you have acquired it (whether you paid for it or it was given away) you can do with it what you wish


  • This guy is president of Ukraine while I’m just a dumb nobody that hasn’t read the article, that being said all these quotes from Zelensky that it could mean “a third world war” - or somewhere else I saw him quoted as saying that if Ukraine falls the rest of Europe will be next - seem like really obvious bullshit to get the EU/US more involved.
    I’m saying this cos I think the latter quote (that I’m attributing to him here without a source) was attached to a plea for the US to do a no-fly-zone over Ukraine, which seems like it really might lead to world war 3








  • Reading the article this is much less significant than the headline implies.

    First of all it’s not a reduction in hours, just working the same hours over 4 days instead of 5: “…employees would be able to condense the current five-day week into four days. In practice this means maintaining a 38-hour working week…”
    I’m sure this will benefit some people but when I say 4-day week I mean a reduction in working hours, not shuffling them around the week. Calling this a 4-day week instead of flexible-working is not helpful imo.

    Secondly this isn’t even giving employees a right to that, just a right to ask for it:
    “The draft reform package… will grant employees the ability to request a four-day week. ‘This has to be done at the request of the employee, with the employer giving solid reasons for any refusal’”
