Yesterday, the schedule for the next EuroBSDCon, which will be held in Zagreb, Croatia, from 25 to 28 September 2025, was published.

Last year I attended EuroBSDCon and it was a fantastic experience. I enjoyed every single moment, and connecting with the people who conceive, develop, disseminate, and are passionate about *BSD and the open-source world was an unforgettable experience. I flooded the Venue with BSD Cafe stickers and attended some incredibly interesting presentations. I wrote about it in an article for the FreeBSD Journal, where I tried, as much as possible, to convey the positivity I felt at the event.

Such a positive experience pushed me, a few months later, to propose a talk for BSDCan as well – an incredible experience itself, which I will write about in more detail later.

Reading this year’s program, I see a problem that I also had to face last year and last month at BSDCan: there are so many interesting presentations that they will overlap. Fortunately, the video team will provide live streams and recordings of the individual talks, allowing us to watch the presentations even if delayed.

In Zagreb, Jeroen ( @h3artbl33d – admin of Exquisite.social) and I will present “Liberating the social web using *BSD” – a 90 minutes presentation where we will talk about our experiences with Exquisite and BSD Cafe – delving into both technical and human details – an incredible experience from both points of view.

I suggest taking a look at the program and, if possible, participating. I can assure you it’s definitely worth it.

Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Psychedelic Pill (2012)

Chi scrive non ha mancato di sottolineare quanto gli ultimi dischi di Neil Young sembrassero più urgenti che ispirati. Bene, con questo Psychedelic Pill – di nuovo in sella ai fidi Crazy Horse dopo il recente Americana – si rientra in carreggiata alla grande. E sapete di che razza di carreggiata stiamo parlando. Sommariamente, si tratta di otto pezzi più uno (la versione alternativa della title track) per quasi un'ora e mezza di caro vecchio country psych ad alto tasso d'elettricità. Ma in realtà in ballo c'è altro... sentireascoltare.com/recension…

Hello. On the link below, you can download a free early access alpha version of a 2D dodgeball video game, which is about learning or refreshing your memory on idioms. An idiom is a phrase or expression that largely or exclusively carries a figurative or non-literal meaning, rather than making any literal sense.

This version is free to play, but proceeds of the game sales will go to help me host more English speaking clubs and dodgeball events in Ukraine, to help people stay active and healthy in a fun way, and to help Ukrainians practice their English speaking skills.

I'm from the USA, but I was in Ukraine for a few months of this year, seven months in 2021 when I hosted a few English speaking clubs and dodgeball events, and a few months before, and I was glad to have the opportunity to help Ukrainian people in these different ways, even if it might only be something small. I have documents to live and work in the Netherlands which requires me to stay in their country at least six months per year, but I'm ready to return to Ukraine asap if the English game project is successful.

The New York Times has published an op-ed by a genocide scholar who says that he resisted acknowledging the truth of what Israel is doing in Gaza for as long as he could, but can no longer deny the obvious.

It’s an admission that may as well have come from The New York Times itself.

In an article titled “I’m a Genocide Scholar. I Know It When I See It.”, a Brown University professor of Holocaust and genocide studies named Omer Bartov argues that “Israel is literally trying to wipe out Palestinian existence in Gaza,” and denounces his fellow Holocaust scholars for failing to acknowledge reality.
