    Pookie and Wessie are back from the long term sitter and we still haven&#39;t moved to Spain or Italy or wherever. 🫠 Simply haven&#39;t had time for it yet. Worst of all, I&#39;ve seen a house in Mallorca, which feels like such a dickish move considering their housing crisis. Haven&#39;t had any luck with Italy yet. Dutch winter is coming 😭 #PookieAndWessie

    In honor of #FOSDEM rejecting our Diversity, Equity, Inclusivity, and Belonging (DEIB) track, and time permitting, I will be posting numbers about diversity in tech and my personal experiences in IT today. Feel encouraged to share numbers and experiences as well ❀️

    I&#39;m actually a bit upset about this. πŸ™ @RosannaSibora@fosstodon.org , @_elena@mastodon.social and I, and a whole coalition of open source orgs were hoping to organize a track at #FOSDEM27 about Diversity, Equity, Inclusivity and Belonging (DEIB) in #FOSS. It got rejected. https://fosstodon.org/@RosannaSibora/117475238625142335

    RE: https://nrc.social/@MarloesdeKoning/117443878800925446 Dutch bank ABN Amro (one of the big 3) is at risk of being hit by US sanctions, because of services it provides to the ICC. Worst case scenario ABN AMRO would be excluded from the international banking system, which would be the &quot;corporate death penalty&quot; and has already caused another bank, the Amsterdam Trade Bank, to go under. #digitalsovereignty #opensource #ICC #USpol

    RE: https://nrc.social/@NRC/117439326530971500 Amsterdam police seized a server belonging to Autistici/Inventati (A/I) from a data center at Amsterdam Science Park, acting on a US legal assistance request. Police digital experts are making an image of the drive, which goes straight to the US. A/I spent 25 years providing free web hosting and email to about 20,000 left-wing and anti-capitalist groups. In August the US branded it a terrorist organization. #digitalsovereignty #opensource #EUpoli...

    RE: https://fosstodon.org/@Gina/117236161241462079 The US is going to impose new sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC). These sanctions would prevent companies from providing services to the ICC. https://www.reuters.com/world/us-imposes-sanctions-international-criminal-court-hours-after-former-judge-wins-2026-10-09/ Dutch newspaper @NRC@nrc.social wrote an article a month ago about IT suppliers of the ICC, such as @ProcoliX@social.procolix.eu , who worry about getting hit by US...

    Excellent article written by @Marloezovic@mastodon.nl about the effect of US sanctions on the EU tech sector, after the targeting of the International Criminal Court (ICC) and Italian internet provider A/I. Quoted is @koen@procolix.social , director of @ProcoliX@social.procolix.eu , who have had to limit the IT services that they provide to the ICC out of fear for US sanctions. https://www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2026/09/08/amerikaanse-sanctiebeleid-jaagt-europese-internetsector-angst-aan-a4936144 #dig...

    Sweden is also choosing @forgejo@floss.social for their digitally sovereign government codeplatform, just like the Dutch code.overheid.nl πŸ₯³πŸ₯³ https://github.com/diggsweden/ena-kodsamverkansplattform-poc This is a nice step towards less dependence on US big tech, aka Github. In my last days at the @BZKopensource@social.overheid.nl I hope to set up a working group with other EU governments, to work towards a federated network of codeplatforms πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί #codeplatform #forgejo #ospo #digitalsovereignty...

    Nice work Switzerland! πŸ‘πŸ‘ European governments are starting to support alternative mobile app stores, such as @fdroidorg@floss.social , for their government-built apps. Next up, government issued (fair)phones for civil servants that come with an open OS and open app store? πŸš€ https://www.parlament.ch/de/ratsbetrieb/suche-curia-vista/geschaeft?AffairId=20267146 #digitalsovereignty #opensource #foss #mobile #fdroid #eupolicy #switzerland
