Software Doldrums

+

Building a Liberated Home - for myself and others

-: Sunday 12:15 - 13:00 EDT - Opening keynote +: Sunday 14:30 - 15:15 EDT
-: Jupiter +: Neptune
-: Keynote +: Free Software in practice
-

We will talk about the dangers and shortcomings of relying on always-online proprietary platforms, through anecdotes from doing long-distance sailing across the Pacific ocean, away from internet connectivity and beyond the shores of the Western world. We will also talk about how we reimagined our software to encourage the reuse, repair and maintenance of existing hardware.

+

Building and living a free life isn't easy. Not only do we need to keep reminding ourselves about our reasons for choosing free/libre software, but also about being mindful when choosing the right hardware to run free software on. It's easy to run free software when we have complete control over our hardware, but when the hardware limits or controls what software can be run on it, it also eliminates our ability to choose free software.

+

Unless we choose our hardware carefully, we will slowly run out of places to run free software. Hence, the necessity to build a "liberated home".

+

When the software that defines and controls the device is proprietary, it eliminates our ability to repair or extend the device and renders the hardware unusable for a free software user.

+

This talk will detail methods, practices, advice and solutions for common technology requirements in a typical home. It will also attempt to offer suggestions on how we can help others after we've solved some of these problems for ourselves.

Hundred Rabbits

-

Hundred Rabbits is a small artist collective consisting of Rek (they), a writer and cartoonist, and Devine (they), a programmer, artist, and musician. They travel the globe together with their sailboat named "Pino" while creating and adapting software to fit their needs. They learned, with a lack of energy resources and Internet access, they needed to make adjustments to the way they were using their technology. Besides sharing their experiences about living on the water, they also document their use of various technologies and their art. In addition to blogs, cartoons, and music, they create and publish free (as in freedom) software projects.

Abhas Abhinav

I describe myself as a hacker, entrepreneur and free software activist. I started using GNU/Linux exclusively in 1998 when I was a student and then started my first free software business - DeepRoot GNU/Linux - in 2000. Over the past 21 years, we have helped organizations of all sizes and sectors implement free software in various forms. The core idea has been that just the existence and awareness of free software is insufficient - unless someone can step in to offer support and services for it, many organizations would be unable to choose free software, or understand and appreciate its benefits.


+

I started a "liberated hardware business" in 2016 - Mostly Harmless - to build and sell hardware that would enable people to run free software in more places. I now operate an online shop - libretech.shop - to sell these devices with the promise that all devices sold there would be "ethical and hackable products which also offer convenience."


+

I am also a member of the board of Free Software Foundation of India (FSF-India) and participate in and contribute to various free software advocacy and education activities in India as a volunteer.
