That snippet that you quoted there is what I would point to. Right below that is a graphic where they explain their interaction with public offices on the left side and the FOSS community on the right side, where they say to support and develop sustainably usable solutions.

I would take that as contributing to development. In that paragraph you quoted, they do mention “professional partners”, so maybe that is outsourced?

I’m not exactly an expert of the project, just know of it’s existence and a fan of the direction it’s taking. There’s a few talks about it on the Chaos Computer Clubs website, they do mention contributions to the projects afaik.

The software package SH is using, OpenDesk, is a kit developed/maintained/packaged by ZendIs. They will be the ones contributing to the FOSS projects (probably with feedback from the people using it)

Not everyone has a pixel.

Dresden, Germany. It has the added benefit that there are three separate christmas markets all within walking distance of another.

1. The classic Christkindlesmarkt at the Altmarkt
2. A larger market at the Neumarkt stretching to the Elbe
3. A medieval christmas market in the Stallhof

It’s still an open source project. I don’t know if an independant company would be better, but imo it’s a great first step to see that the german government is investing in digital sovereignty. That may not make the ICC sovereign, but on the other hand, would it make sense for every country to have their own stack?

It’s not a random company. OpenDesk is produced (maintained? Developed? Packaged?) by ZenDiS. ZenDiS is a company that belongs 100% to the german government. It’s not a ministry, but a company. Kind of like the german railways (DB).

Ia this the beginning? Please tell me it’s the beginning!

You made the same /false/ connection I made :D

You are wrong. China has hit peak emissions. This is a bullshit comment and I will not put in the magnitude higher effort to disprove it. Edit because I just can’t help myself: Not only have they hit peak emmission, they lead the charge when it comes to deploying solar energy and electric vehicles. That’s why european markets are flooded with chinese EVs ffs.

It’s the same thing with .exe on windows. It’s potentially dangerous and people need to be mindful what they download and install.

Yes, but: this endeavour comes after/along with the development of a unified “open desk”, a replacement solution for the office and collaboration tools from microsoft etc, backed by the federal government. This ensures a base layer of interoperability between offices and makes training probably easier.

Danke für den Bericht, denke dann lasse ich eher die Finger davon :D

Ergänzend dazu: hat jemand mal ground news ausprobiert, taugt das was für den deutschen/europäischen nachrichtenmarkt?

And sometimes they’re not. Apothecaries believing in homeopathy e.g.

Danke dir. Such für die ganzen Quellen!

Dauernd ist irgendwas neues, echt. Erst heißt es WEAs verschandeln die Landschaft, töten Vögel und Insekten, oh nein wir brauchen einen Netzausbau, Speichermöglichkeiten, etc. Und dann ist der Newscycle grade halb vorbei, da sind es die chinesischen Sabotageteilchen, die die Energiewende behindern.
Es kann doch echt nicht sein. Warum galten nicht von vorne herein die gleichen Sicherheitsstandards wie bei herkömmlichen Energieerzeugern?
Wieso ist das alles so anstrengend?

Schankedön!
