"The Internet's Own Boy" [watch Free Online]
Aaron Swartz was a programmer, a hacker, a freedom of information activist — and due to unconscionable federal prosecutorial thuggery - a casualty of suicide...and a personal hero.

Just officially closed my #photography business, Funcrunch Photo, with the City of San Francisco after 13 years. Was silly to keep paying business license renewal fees when I haven't been doing hired gigs or selling photo licenses for years. (My work has been primarily #CreativeCommons licensed since 2015.)
Leaving the website up for now, but I'll be deleting some of my online galleries over time.

Packing for #oSC23 to do a reading of "Ada & #Zangemann - A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream". Thanks again to Bill @nostarch and the #NoStarchPress team for supporting the publication under #CreativeCommons BY-SA.
Thanks to @ken_fallon for reminding me that I need to figure out this #licensing stuff.
I like #CreativeCommons but there doesn't seem to be an option for allowing commercial use without attribution. I used to use the "Sampling Plus" license for my music, but that has been deprecated, and didn't really work for sample distribution. 1/2
I apply #GPLv3 to #FOSS software I build and use #CreativeCommons licenses (either CC-BY-SA or CC-BY-SA-NC) for written material meant to be shared because I like to encourage broad uptake and reuse. I also support derivatives for all non-commercial and some commercial work.
I believe so strongly in this that a think tank I'm currently co-founding is based on CC licensing. Reframing the conversation is more important than monopolizing it. To be an agent of change, one has to empower others!

Last week, I got a visual prototype together of how a drumming robot should wield a stick. FROM THE WRIST! #BatmanMeme Most drumbots just pull the stick down to "deadhit" the skin. There's a lot of work to do on that part of this project, but meanwhile, there's also some basic electronics to prove the concept.
A drumbot needs a motor to flick the stick, then pull the stick quickly, but gently, back to rest and hold it there. It also needs to read MIDI note velocity and map that to the motor's useful powerband. Finally, the motor has to quickly and quietly restore the stick to its ready position.
All this requires complex motor control, Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) to be exact, and a microcontroller to read the MIDI Note-On data and have each part of drumbot respond appropriately.
Circuitry and basic code are proven. I'll probably end up blowing up 4, VERY expensive MOSFETs in my first attempt, but hey, we're on this earth to make mistakes, and thereby make the future. This is not a cheap project, either, and is third in my project queue, so it will take some time.

Me llama la atención el poco uso que hacen de licencias #CreativeCommons los compositores e intérpretes de #música cristiana ¿Realmente sacan cantidades de dinero relevantes por los derechos de autor? ¿No sería más útil y conforme a su misión difundir su música en creative commons?
Además los portalitos de música cristiana suelen morir de falta de mantenimiento. Sería más efectivo usar Jamendo o montar una instancia de #Funkwhale

Love the path #Flickr has taken lately, and these brand-new guidlines regarding #CreativeCommons are part of it:
»»
Give some grace. When you choose to grant permission to your photos under any open
license available on Flickr, we ask that you give the reuser a 30-day grace period to fix
any possible mistake or misuse with no penalty. Failure to allow a good faith reuser the opportunity to correct errors is against the intent of the license[.]”

Does anyone know of any fonts suited for comic/manga which are CreativeCommons or similar free licensing? bonus points if it contains Japanese character glyphs (or support multiple languages for the matter) #CreativeCommons #opensource
@rbreich #Oathkeepers poached a lot of my radio comms and #SIGINT writing and classwork, violating it's #creativecommons licensing. They're a bunch of scumbags and I derive much schadenfreude from their conviction.
I'll do more little sprites if anyone has ideas for anything. I'll do #gameArt for free as long as I can release those bits of art as #publicDomain or #creativeCommons ...
That's actually really fantastic! Thanks very much!
I guess people have to know about #Dungeons #TTRPGMaps and such things to be able to find it!
Oh and under a #CreativeCommons licence! How very generous of you! :)

I think not only is it not enforceable, but CC specifically says that you **cannot** claim to be #CreativeCommons licensed if you add extra licensing requirements.
(And, thanks for the link, very helpful.)
Actually, because Creative Commons is very clear that you cannot do this, I think it would be a great idea to get the wannabes to change their licenses. If you are not truly CC, then you can't say CC. When I'm searching for CC materials, I shouldn't have to double check if the materials are really CC.
IIRC, a big "open" textbook site had very similar terms a few years ago, but they seem to have gotten rid of them.
Tied with my dislike of the idea that "#OER" just means "available to educators" is my dislike of people who try to have their #CreativeCommons cake and eat it too.
For example: the math content linked below is supposedly "CC BY-NC", but they add conditions to modification and sharing. Among other things, they require specific PR text on *every* page.

I'm a #GenX #metalhead, out-of-print #scifi #author, and burned-out #developer from #NewYork living in #Pennsylvania.
I have a personal website with a blog at https://starbreaker.org, where I've republished my fiction under a #CreativeCommons license, and I #amwriting a new novel called "Spiral Architect" and serializing it there.

Voting in the Seventeenth Annual #Commons Picture of the Year contest is open now! :poty:
Editors are selecting the best featured picture over the previous year from Wikimedia Commons (a free media repository and sister project to Wikipedia).
You need to have made at least 75 edits before Jan 1 to be eligible to vote (https://meta.toolforge.org/accounteligibility/ can help you check)
If you haven't seen them yet, check out last year's results: https://w.wiki/67zu
(I'm also interested in purchasing time boxed licenses on preexisting content, but it is my least favorite option. #creativeCommons will be my preference forever.)
The #Wikimedia Foundation (Wikipedia's non-profit host) has proposed changes to the Terms of Use and is requesting feedback through April 24: https://w.wiki/6azj
Changes include:
* Codifying the new Universal Code of Conduct
* Migrating to the new #CreativeCommons 4.0 license
* Updates for compliance with the Digital Services Act
A more complete summary of the changes is available too: https://w.wiki/6azm

Believe it or not but it's that time of the month again - time for my little German language #radioShow RADIO IRRTUM! - tonight - 2023-03-18 at 8:00PM (UTC+2) on Alex Berlin, at FM 91MHz or via stream: https://www.alex-berlin.de/audio/radio-livestream .
Don't be afraid about that German language aspect - it's a show to raise your attention for new unheard #music all over the genre spectrum - and exactly this music is what has priority above all other things; so if you don't speak German at all, you will still be sonically pleasured! :)
Usually the first half is more about clubby things (body), while the second half is more about what some wrongly call "difficult" music (for your mind).
Following this path there will be...
- weird #Japanese #popmusic
- Hiphop #Beatmaker Beatz
- #Bass (#halftime, #140, Trap - that kinda thing)
- soothing and not so soothing but divine #experimentalNoise
- #Music not fitting a clear definition
- (but you need one? Here you go: #Contemporary Dancehall Jazz Dub)
- #Punk for gardening
- Polish #postDarkWave
- folkloristic #songwriter music
A lot of this will be #CreativeCommons licensed music — not because I am a ideologist (well - I am, but I wouldn't force that on you), but because there is a lot of really really well done stuff coming out from there which deserves so much more attention!
And again some artists being played I've discovered here, at the Fediverse. So greetings to @poemproducer@systerserver.town, @setto@s.basspistol.org, and @torstentorsten@social.tchncs.de :) !
[↑↑↑ English Version above ↑↑↑]
Es ist wieder soweit - heute Abend (15.04.2023 / 20 Uhr) wird RADIO IRRTUM! - ausgestrahlt - wie gewohnt auf Alex Berlin (FM 91MHz / Stream https://www.alex-berlin.de/audio/radio-livestream).
Wie immer werde ich Euch gnadenlos durch das musikalische Spektrum der Neuerscheinungen schubsen:
Wobei es in der ersten Hälfte mehr um Club-taugliche Musik geht (für Euren Body), während es in der zweiten Hälfte eher um Musik geht, die ungerechtfertigter Weise als "sperrig" attribuiert werden könnte (für Euren Geist).
Folgen wir also diesem Weg und passieren dabei:
- verrückten Japanpop
- Hiphop Beatmaker Beatz
- Bass (halftime, 140, Trap, sowas - wisster Bescheid)
- mehr oder weniger beruhigendes Experimentelles (und göttliches!) Geräusch
- #Musik, die in keine Schublade passt.
- (aber wenn Ihr eine wollt: Contemporary Dancehall Jazz Dub)
- Punk für Gärtner:Innen (wartet es ab, wird ein gaaaaanz flacher Witz!)
- Polnischer PostDarkWave
- Liedermachermusik mit folkloristischem Spin
Dabei auch ganz viel Creative Commons Lizensiertes - gar nicht mal aus ideologischen Gründen, sondern weil aus dieser Ecke immer wieder richtig gutes Zeug kommt, was definitiv mehr Aufmerksamkeit verdient.
Und es gibt mehrere Künstler:Innen zu hören, die ich hier im Fediverse entdeckt habe (siehe oben). \o/
Viel Spaß und bis denne!

A dedicated jam space for maybe 6-8 active #musicians at a time
good modern PA system
cool lighting and comfy furniture and a projector doing audio visualizations
a rotating roster of area musicians to just jam
streaming to the #fediverse twice a week
recorded #CreativeCommons for posterity and sharing with @internetarchive
with links to musicians' other projects and #BandCamp, etc.
a jam group for the year 2023.
