lib: impress.js

I have been testing impress.js on my webpage to day. I think it is cool and will nicely replace prezi for me. But i wished it didn't have one feature. It replaces the default html / css way of working with its own absolute positioning system.

I will do to things to investigate if i should stay with impress.js

1. See if it is possible to disable the prezi positioning.
2. See if any of the other js alternatives does use standard html/css for layout.

What are the different elements – legal, ethical, and aesthetic – that have fed into the stellar success of the free and open source software movement? In this talk, drawing on material from my forthcoming book, I will discuss the unique elements within F/OSS that constitute it as a site of political action, and contextualize free software within a wider field of geek and hacker politics. I will conclude by marshaling this material to critically assess the concept of Web 2.0, which has so powerfully structured understandings of the politics and power of digital media.

ABOUT THE TALK AND WORKSHOP

As a visitor to FSCONS I realised that all guests are not developers or know how to program. But many guests have an interest in, and would benefit from, knowing about coding. This is an introduction to programming visiting the core building blocks of many languages. The goal is for you to be able to follow the flow of a program. Concepts I will explain include sequence, selection, iteration, method. You will also receive good tips on where to continue from this introduction.

In the workshop we also will be writing some code.

This talk will also be given as a workshop

Regain control of your Android device and your data! This talk will give you all the information necessary to achieve this by running (almost) exclusively Free Software on your phone. It will cover the Android operating system and F-Droid, an alternative Free Software App repository that works like a marketplace. In these areas, a lot has been achieved, while there are still more challenges ahead.

This talk will also give you an insight of the current FYA-campaign, its short-term and its long-term goals as well as our experience so far with this decentralised campaign. Different ways will be presented how you can help to make phone liberation effortless and free the last few apps necessary for freedom phones to thrive.

What is the android system, what is wrong with it. 

• universal operating system with inux kernel.
• google account
• google collects and connects data of emails, calendrar, adressbook, photos, usage-behavior
• Thousands of proprietary, unctrolled apps

But

• developed under no-disclosure agreement
• might be proprietary in future
• vendor locked ROMs

... have early to run to be prepared for my talk coming up next...

"Your mobile phones has more computing power than the entire human race when we landed on the moon"

Things that use to be normal, loaning, lending, sharing, copy are now limited.

With the future uefi secure boot I will not be able to decide what software I trust. - But a single third party decides who I should thrust. They become gatekeepers to our computer with this. 

Who should decide? - What should be able to to do whit our computers?

Soon my workshop will start on FSCONS.

In the begining i will show this presentation  (follow it live)
then we will look at an code example to see if we can get it to work.
