International Criminal Court to ditch Microsoft Office for European open source alternative
The International Criminal Court (ICC) will switch its internal work environment away from Microsoft Office to Open Desk, a European open source alternative, the institution confirmed to Euractiv.
German newspaper Handelsblatt first reported on the plans. The switch comes amid rising concerns about public bodies being reliant on US tech companies to run their services, which have stepped up sharply since the start of US President Donald Trump’s second administration.
For the ICC, such concerns are not abstract: Trump has repeatedly lashed out at the court and slapped sanctions on its chief prosecutor, Karim Khan.

RISC-V takes first step toward international standardization as ISO/IEC JTC1 grants PAS Submitter status
cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/38267171
RISC-V is an industry standard, like USB or Wi-Fi. The specifications are publicly available under the Creative Commons license and every engineer, wherever they are in the world, can use them to design their products locally, while engaging with the global RISC-V ecosystem.This standard is defined by RISC-V International and its members. Decisions are voted upon collectively, ensuring every member is heard. It’s a model that has worked for us for many years, ensuring any updates to the RISC-V ISA happen transparently, without breaking existing designs, and always in service of the broader ecosystem.
The RISC-V ISA is already an industry standard and the next step is impartial recognition from a trusted international organization.
Today, I’m excited to announce that we have taken that first step. RISC-V International has been approved as a recognized PAS (that’s publicly available specification) Submitter by the ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee (JTC 1).
This means we’re able to submit draft international papers, starting with the The RISC-V Instruction Set Manual, for consideration as true, international standards.

Justice Department puts 2 prosecutors on leave after they signed court docs that described "mob of rioters" on Jan. 6
The Justice Department placed two D.C.-based federal prosecutors on leave after they filed court papers calling the Jan. 6 Capitol siege a "riot" perpetrated by a "mob," three sources familiar with the matter told CBS News on Wednesday.
The papers were submitted Tuesday in the case of Taylor Taranto, who was pardoned by Trump on Capitol riot charges earlier this year but was later convicted of livestreaming a bomb threat. He was arrested in 2023 while livestreaming himself driving around former President Barack Obama's D.C. neighborhood while armed, according to prosecutors.
The filing — which asked a judge to sentence Taranto to 27 months in prison at a hearing Thursday — mentioned Taranto's Jan. 6 charges and briefly described the events of that day, writing that "thousands of people comprising a mob of rioters attacked the U.S. Capitol."
That unsparing description of the Capitol riot was notable, as Mr. Trump has called Jan. 6 a "day of love" and referred to the rioters as "hostages."

Los Lobos - Gates Of Gold (2015)
Questo disco arriva dopo che le ultime prove discografiche in studio erano diventate un poco appannate, avevano perso smalto (“The Town and The City” una spanna sopra l’ ultimo “Tin Can Trust” di cinque anni orsono, tuttavia entrambe sono prove meno convincenti di un glorioso passato). Però David Hidalgo e Louie Pérez sono tornati in gran forma e c’è una grande varietà nei suoni, con brani che si presentano in una veste squisitamente latina, oppure troviamo blues urbani, sonorità black, poi ci sono riferimenti ai Grateful Dead ed al loro capolavoro Kiko e riscontriamo la presenza di alcune grandi canzoni come ad esempio “Magdalena” e “When We Were Free”. Azzarderei col dire che è il disco più convincente dai tempi di “Good Morning Aztlán” (2002) e qualitativamente siamo ai livelli di Kiko... artesuono.blogspot.com/2015/10…
