My research group still uses Slack, which is not only USAian, but also has a terrible free version and expensive subscription.

I am confident there is will to switch, but the inconvenience of learning a new platform prevents the team as a whole. What would be good alternatives that would make an easy transition period?

Orqa is one of the few companies in the FPV market that does almost all of its engineering in house: mechanical engineering, electronics design, RF design, firmware development, optics design, prototyping, etc. All of our products are labelled as “Made in Europe” since everything, except micro-displays, is made in Osijek.

The prototyping lab in headquarters provides high-end equipment such as FDM 3D printer Stratsys F170, big SLS 3D Printer Formiga P110 Velocis, advanced laser cutters and CNC machining, as well as other relevant equipment needed for developing hardware devices. In addition, Orqa owns high end RF design and testing tools.

Hey!

I am trying to switch away from my Samsung Calendar (not because of Samsung as much as because I can practically only synch it with the Google Calendar).

Any recommendations?

I am working now with Tuta Calendar, but it lacks some features. For example, I cannot customize the time of the reminder (there are only five options to choose from). Also, it is not too easy to copy the events, which makes putting the same things manually every week sluggish.

Or maybe somebody knows how to tweak Samsung calendar to accept calendar synch with an open-source protocol?

58%: Share of EU primary energy provided by fossil imports./

82%: Most EU fossil energy is consumed outside the power sector, where electrification is the solution./

-50%: Fossil import dependency can be halved by 2040, with electrification the biggest contributor.

(For the last point, we can do much better)

Ahead of the European Council meeting on 23.10.2025, 2,178 scientists urge EU Heads of States & Governments to take ambitious decisions for the 2040 targets.

The European Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change advised that a 90%–95% net domestic reduction of greenhouse gases (GHG) until 2040 (compared to the 1990 baseline) is necessary in order to achieve climate neutrality by 2050. The political discussion is moving further away from the scientific evidence, espe­cially in the revision of the EU climate law (2040 climate target). Ahead of the summit of Heads of state and Heads of government on 23/10/2025, we urge policymakers to stick to science and stick to Paris. The EU should have submitted its target to the United Nations already in September – in time for the 2025 UN Climate Change Conference in November. A further delay or softening should not happen.

The benefits of such a target are enormous. If done correctly, it could, among others,
● save over €850 billion in fossil fuel imports between 2025 and 2040,
● increase competitiveness and create more than 2 million new jobs in clean industries,
● cut household energy bills by up to two-thirds, and
● reduce Europe’s dependency on autocratic countries, strengthening independence and resilience.

I would like to try the new Fairphone with /e/ OS. But I am afraid that it won't work for me. In that case, is it possible to install Google's Android on the Fairphone I originally ordered with /e/ OS?

Hey!

I would like to spread flyers and hang posters to promote fedi on my Uni campus around late August when the academic year starts in Sweden.

I searched for it, but I found so-and-so options. Does anybody have good recommendations?
