-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Making packages for Debian requires quite a lot of attention to
-details.  And one of the details is the content of the
-debian/copyright file, which should list all relevant licenses used by
-the code in the package in question, preferably in
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/&quot;&gt;machine
-readable DEP5 format&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;For large packages with lots of contributors it is hard to write
-and update this file manually, and if you get some detail wrong, the
-package is normally rejected by the ftpmasters.  So getting it right
-the first time around get the package into Debian faster, and save
-both you and the ftpmasters some work..  Today, while trying to figure
-out what was wrong with
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=686447&quot;&gt;the
-zfsonlinux copyright file&lt;/a&gt;, I decided to spend some time on
-figuring out the options for doing this job automatically, or at least
-semi-automatically.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Lucikly, there are at least two tools available for generating the
-file based on the code in the source package,
-&lt;tt&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/debmake&quot;&gt;debmake&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/tt&gt;
-and &lt;tt&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/cme&quot;&gt;cme&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/tt&gt;.  I&#39;m
-not sure which one of them came first, but both seem to be able to
-create a sensible draft file.  As far as I can tell, none of them can
-be trusted to get the result just right, so the content need to be
-polished a bit before the file is OK to upload.  I found the debmake
-option in
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://goofying-with-debian.blogspot.com/2014/07/debmake-checking-source-against-dep-5.html&quot;&gt;a
-blog posts from 2014&lt;/a&gt;.
-
-&lt;p&gt;To generate using debmake, use the -cc option:
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
-debmake -cc &gt; debian/copyright
-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Note there are some problems with python and non-ASCII names, so
-this might not be the best option.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The cme option is based on a config parsing library, and I found
-this approach in
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://ddumont.wordpress.com/2015/04/05/improving-creation-of-debian-copyright-file/&quot;&gt;a
-blog post from 2015&lt;/a&gt;.  To generate using cme, use the &#39;update
-dpkg-copyright&#39; option:
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
-cme update dpkg-copyright -quiet
-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;This will create or update debian/copyright.  The cme tool seem to
-handle UTF-8 names better than debmake.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;When the copyright file is created, I would also like some help to
-check if the file is correct.  For this I found two good options,
-&lt;tt&gt;debmake -k&lt;/tt&gt; and &lt;tt&gt;license-reconcile&lt;/tt&gt;.  The former seem
-to focus on license types and file matching, and is able to detect
-ineffective blocks in the copyright file.  The latter reports missing
-copyright holders and years, but was confused by inconsistent license
-names (like CDDL vs. CDDL-1.0).  I suspect it is good to use both and
-fix all issues reported by them before uploading.  But I do not know
-if the tools and the ftpmasters agree on what is important to fix in a
-copyright file, so the package might still be rejected.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The devscripts tool &lt;tt&gt;licensecheck&lt;/tt&gt; deserve mentioning.  It
-will read through the source and try to find all copyright statements.
-It is not comparing the result to the content of debian/copyright, but
-can be useful when verifying the content of the copyright file.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Are you aware of better tools in Debian to create and update
-debian/copyright file.  Please let me know, or blog about it on
-planet.debian.org.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;So far, at least hydro-electric power, coal power, wind power,
+solar power, and wood power are well known.  Until a few days ago, I
+had never heard of stone power.  Then I learn about a quarry in a
+mountain in
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bremanger&quot;&gt;Bremanger&lt;/a&gt; i
+Norway, where
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.bontrup.com/en/activities/raw-materials/bremanger-quarry/&quot;&gt;the
+Bremanger Quarry&lt;/a&gt; company is extracting stone and dumping the stone
+into a shaft leading to its shipping harbour.  This downward movement
+in this shaft is used to produce electricity.  In short, it is using
+falling rocks instead of falling water to produce electricity, and
+according to its own statements it is producing more power than it is
+using, and selling the surplus electricity to the Norwegian power
+grid.  I find the concept truly amazing.  Is this the worlds only
+stone power plant?&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;https://wiki.debian.org/DEP-11&quot;&gt;appstream system&lt;/a&gt;
-is taking shape in Debian, and one provided feature is a very
-convenient way to tell you which package to install to make a given
-firmware file available when the kernel is looking for it.  This can
-be done using apt-file too, but that is for someone else to blog
-about. :)&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Here is a small recipe to find the package with a given firmware
-file, in this example I am looking for ctfw-3.2.3.0.bin, randomly
-picked from the set of firmware announced using appstream in Debian
-unstable.  In general you would be looking for the firmware requested
-by the kernel during kernel module loading.  To find the package
-providing the example file, do like this:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
-% apt install appstream
-[...]
-% apt update
-[...]
-% appstreamcli what-provides firmware:runtime ctfw-3.2.3.0.bin | \
-  awk &#39;/Package:/ {print $2}&#39;
-firmware-qlogic
-%
-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;See &lt;a href=&quot;https://wiki.debian.org/AppStream/Guidelines&quot;&gt;the
-appstream wiki&lt;/a&gt; page to learn how to embed the package metadata in
-a way appstream can use.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;This same approach can be used to find any package supporting a
-given MIME type.  This is very useful when you get a file you do not
-know how to handle.  First find the mime type using &lt;tt&gt;file
---mime-type&lt;/tt&gt;, and next look up the package providing support for
-it.  Lets say you got an SVG file.  Its MIME type is image/svg+xml,
-and you can find all packages handling this type like this:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
-% apt install appstream
-[...]
-% apt update
-[...]
-% appstreamcli what-provides mimetype image/svg+xml | \
-  awk &#39;/Package:/ {print $2}&#39;

-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

-&lt;p&gt;I believe the MIME types are fetched from the desktop file for
-packages providing appstream metadata.&lt;/p&gt;

+                <pubDate>Tue, 26 Jun 2018 23:55:00 +0200</pubDate>
+               <description>&lt;p&gt;My movie playing setup involve &lt;a href=&quot;https://kodi.tv/&quot;&gt;Kodi&lt;/a&gt;,
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://openelec.tv&quot;&gt;OpenELEC&lt;/a&gt; (probably soon to be
+replaced with &lt;a href=&quot;https://libreelec.tv/&quot;&gt;LibreELEC&lt;/a&gt;) and an
+Infocus IN76 video projector.  My projector can be controlled via both
+a infrared remote controller, and a RS-232 serial line.  The vendor of
+my projector, &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.infocus.com/&quot;&gt;InFocus&lt;/a&gt;, had been
+sensible enough to document the serial protocol in its user manual, so
+it is easily available, and I used it some years ago to write
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/infocus-projector-control&quot;&gt;a
+small script to control the projector&lt;/a&gt;.  For a while now, I longed
+for a setup where the projector was controlled by Kodi, for example in
+such a way that when the screen saver went on, the projector was
+turned off, and when the screen saver exited, the projector was turned
+on again.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;A few days ago, with very good help from parts of my family, I
+managed to find a Kodi Add-on for controlling a Epson projector, and
+got in touch with its author to see if we could join forces and make a
+Add-on with support for several projectors.  To my pleasure, he was
+positive to the idea, and we set out to add InFocus support to his
+add-on, and make the add-on suitable for the official Kodi add-on
+repository.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The Add-on is now working (for me, at least), with a few minor
+adjustments.  The most important change I do relative to the master
+branch in the github repository is embedding the
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/pyserial/pyserial&quot;&gt;pyserial module&lt;/a&gt; in
+the add-on.  The long term solution is to make a &quot;script&quot; type
+pyserial module for Kodi, that can be pulled in as a dependency in
+Kodi.  But until that in place, I embed it.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The add-on can be configured to turn on the projector when Kodi
+starts, off when Kodi stops as well as turn the projector off when the
+screensaver start and on when the screesaver stops.  It can also be
+told to set the projector source when turning on the projector.
+
+&lt;p&gt;If this sound interesting to you, check out
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/fredrik-eriksson/kodi_projcontrol&quot;&gt;the
+project github repository&lt;/a&gt;.  Perhaps you can send patches to
+support your projector too?  As soon as we find time to wrap up the
+latest changes, it should be available for easy installation using any
+Kodi instance.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;For future improvements, I would like to add projector model
+detection and the ability to adjust the brightness level of the
+projector from within Kodi.  We also need to figure out how to handle
+the cooling period of the projector.  My projector refuses to turn on
+for 60 seconds after it was turned off.  This is not handled well by
+the add-on at the moment.&lt;/p&gt;
+

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Most people seem not to realise that every time they walk around
-with the computerised radio beacon known as a mobile phone their
-position is tracked by the phone company and often stored for a long
-time (like every time a SMS is received or sent).  And if their
-computerised radio beacon is capable of running programs (often called
-mobile apps) downloaded from the Internet, these programs are often
-also capable of tracking their location (if the app requested access
-during installation).  And when these programs send out information to
-central collection points, the location is often included, unless
-extra care is taken to not send the location.  The provided
-information is used by several entities, for good and bad (what is
-good and bad, depend on your point of view).  What is certain, is that
-the private sphere and the right to free movement is challenged and
-perhaps even eradicated for those announcing their location this way,
-when they share their whereabouts with private and public
-entities.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;70%&quot; src=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2016-01-24-nice-creepy-desktop-window.png&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The phone company logs provide a register of locations to check out
-when one want to figure out what the tracked person was doing.  It is
-unavailable for most of us, but provided to selected government
-officials, company staff, those illegally buying information from
-unfaithful servants and crackers stealing the information.  But the
-public information can be collected and analysed, and a free software
-tool to do so is called
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.geocreepy.com/&quot;&gt;Creepy or Cree.py&lt;/a&gt;.  I
-discovered it when I read
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.aftenposten.no/kultur/Slik-kan-du-bli-overvaket-pa-Twitter-og-Instagram-uten-a-ane-det-7787884.html&quot;&gt;an
-article about Creepy&lt;/a&gt; in the Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten i
-November 2014, and decided to check if it was available in Debian.
-The python program was in Debian, but
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/creepy&quot;&gt;the version in
-Debian&lt;/a&gt; was completely broken and practically unmaintained.  I
-uploaded a new version which did not work quite right, but did not
-have time to fix it then.  This Christmas I decided to finally try to
-get Creepy operational in Debian.  Now a fixed version is available in
-Debian unstable and testing, and almost all Debian specific patches
-are now included
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/jkakavas/creepy&quot;&gt;upstream&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The Creepy program visualises geolocation information fetched from
-Twitter, Instagram, Flickr and Google+, and allow one to get a
-complete picture of every social media message posted recently in a
-given area, or track the movement of a given individual across all
-these services.  Earlier it was possible to use the search API of at
-least some of these services without identifying oneself, but these
-days it is impossible.  This mean that to use Creepy, you need to
-configure it to log in as yourself on these services, and provide
-information to them about your search interests.  This should be taken
-into account when using Creepy, as it will also share information
-about yourself with the services.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The picture above show the twitter messages sent from (or at least
-geotagged with a position from) the city centre of Oslo, the capital
-of Norway.  One useful way to use Creepy is to first look at
-information tagged with an area of interest, and next look at all the
-information provided by one or more individuals who was in the area.
-I tested it by checking out which celebrity provide their location in
-twitter messages by checkout out who sent twitter messages near a
-Norwegian TV station, and next could track their position over time,
-making it possible to locate their home and work place, among other
-things.  A similar technique have been
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.buzzfeed.com/maxseddon/does-this-soldiers-instagram-account-prove-russia-is-covertl&quot;&gt;used
-to locate Russian soldiers in Ukraine&lt;/a&gt;, and it is both a powerful
-tool to discover lying governments, and a useful tool to help people
-understand the value of the private information they provide to the
-public.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The package is not trivial to backport to Debian Stable/Jessie, as
-it depend on several python modules currently missing in Jessie (at
-least python-instagram, python-flickrapi and
-python-requests-toolbelt).&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;(I have uploaded
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://screenshots.debian.net/package/creepy&quot;&gt;the image to
-screenshots.debian.net&lt;/a&gt; and licensed it under the same terms as the
-Creepy program in Debian.)&lt;/p&gt;

+tid var det rett frem å ta vare på et TV-program en ønsket å kunne se
+senere, uten å være avhengig av at programmet ble sendt på nytt.
+Kanskje ønsket en å se programmet på hytten der det ikke var
+TV-signal, eller av andre grunner ha det tilgjengelig for fremtidig
+fornøyelse.  Dette er blitt vanskeligere med introduksjon av
+digital-TV og webstreaming, der opptak til harddisk er utenfor de
+flestes kontroll hvis de bruker ufri programvare og bokser kontrollert
+av andre.  Men for NRK her i Norge, finnes det heldigvis flere fri
+programvare-alternativer, som jeg har
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Hvordan_enkelt_laste_ned_filmer_fra_NRK.html&quot;&gt;skrevet&lt;/a&gt;
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Hvordan_enkelt_laste_ned_filmer_fra_NRK_med_den__nye__l_sningen.html&quot;&gt;om&lt;/a&gt;
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Nedlasting_fra_NRK__som_Matroska_med_undertekster.html&quot;&gt;før&lt;/a&gt;.
+Så lenge kilden for nedlastingen er lovlig lagt ut på nett (hvilket
+jeg antar NRK gjør), så er slik lagring til privat bruk også lovlig i
+Norge.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Sist jeg så på saken, i 2016, nevnte jeg at
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://rg3.github.com/youtube-dl/&quot;&gt;youtube-dl&lt;/a&gt; ikke kunne
+bake undertekster fra NRK inn i videofilene, og at jeg derfor
+foretrakk andre alternativer.  Nylig oppdaget jeg at dette har endret
+seg.  Fordelen med youtube-dl er at den er tilgjengelig direkte fra
+Linux-distribusjoner som &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.debian.org/&quot;&gt;Debian&lt;/a&gt;
+og &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.ubuntu.com/&quot;&gt;Ubuntu&lt;/a&gt;, slik at en slipper å
+finne ut selv hvordan en skal få dem til å virke.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;For å laste ned et NRK-innslag med undertekster, og få den norske
+underteksten pakket inn i videofilen, så kan følgende kommando
+brukes:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
+youtube-dl --write-sub --sub-format ttml \
+  --convert-subtitles srt --embed-subs \
+  https://tv.nrk.no/serie/ramm-ferdig-gaa/MUHU11000316/27-04-2018
+&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;URL-eksemplet er dagens toppsak på tv.nrk.no.  Resultatet er en
+MP4-fil med filmen og undertekster som kan spilles av med VLC.  Merk
+at VLC ikke viser frem undertekster før du aktiverer dem.  For å gjøre
+det, høyreklikk med musa i fremviservinduet, velg menyvalget for
+undertekst og så norsk språk.  Jeg testet også &#39;--write-auto-sub&#39;,
+men det kommandolinjeargumentet ser ikke ut til å fungere, så jeg
+endte opp med settet med argumentlisten over, som jeg fant i en
+feilrapport i youtube-dl-prosjektets samling over feilrapporter.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Denne støtten i youtube-dl gjør det svært enkelt å lagre
+NRK-innslag, det være seg nyheter, filmer, serier eller dokumentater,
+for å ha dem tilgjengelig for fremtidig referanse og bruk, uavhengig
+av hvor lenge innslagene ligger tilgjengelig hos NRK.  Så får det ikke
+hjelpe at NRKs jurister mener at det er
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Best___ikke_fortelle_noen_at_streaming_er_nedlasting___.html&quot;&gt;vesensforskjellig
+å legge tilgjengelig for nedlasting og for streaming&lt;/a&gt;, når det rent
+teknisk er samme sak.&lt;/p&gt;
+

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;During his DebConf15 keynote, Jacob Appelbaum
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://summit.debconf.org/debconf15/meeting/331/what-is-to-be-done/&quot;&gt;observed
-that those listening on the Internet lines would have good reason to
-believe a computer have a given security hole&lt;/a&gt; if it download a
-security fix from a Debian mirror.  This is a good reason to always
-use encrypted connections to the Debian mirror, to make sure those
-listening do not know which IP address to attack.  In August, Richard
-Hartmann observed that encryption was not enough, when it was possible
-to interfere download size to security patches or the fact that
-download took place shortly after a security fix was released, and
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://richardhartmann.de/blog/posts/2015/08/24-Tor-enabled_Debian_mirror/&quot;&gt;proposed
-to always use Tor to download packages from the Debian mirror&lt;/a&gt;.  He
-was not the first to propose this, as the
-&lt;tt&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/apt-transport-tor&quot;&gt;apt-transport-tor&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/tt&gt;
-package by Tim Retout already existed to make it easy to convince apt
-to use &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.torproject.org/&quot;&gt;Tor&lt;/a&gt;, but I was not
-aware of that package when I read the blog post from Richard.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Richard discussed the idea with Peter Palfrader, one of the Debian
-sysadmins, and he set up a Tor hidden service on one of the central
-Debian mirrors using the address vwakviie2ienjx6t.onion, thus making
-it possible to download packages directly between two tor nodes,
-making sure the network traffic always were encrypted.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Here is a short recipe for enabling this on your machine, by
-installing &lt;tt&gt;apt-transport-tor&lt;/tt&gt; and replacing http and https
-urls with tor+http and tor+https, and using the hidden service instead
-of the official Debian mirror site.  I recommend installing
-&lt;tt&gt;etckeeper&lt;/tt&gt; before you start to have a history of the changes
-done in /etc/.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
-apt install apt-transport-tor
-sed -i &#39;s% http://ftp.debian.org/%tor+http://vwakviie2ienjx6t.onion/%&#39; /etc/apt/sources.list
-sed -i &#39;s% http% tor+http%&#39; /etc/apt/sources.list
-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;If you have more sources listed in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/, run
-the sed commands for these too.  The sed command is assuming your are
-using the ftp.debian.org Debian mirror.  Adjust the command (or just
-edit the file manually) to match your mirror.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;This work in Debian Jessie and later.  Note that tools like
-&lt;tt&gt;apt-file&lt;/tt&gt; only recently started using the apt transport
-system, and do not work with these tor+http URLs.  For
-&lt;tt&gt;apt-file&lt;/tt&gt; you need the version currently in experimental,
-which need a recent apt version currently only in unstable.  So if you
-need a working &lt;tt&gt;apt-file&lt;/tt&gt;, this is not for you.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Another advantage from this change is that your machine will start
-using Tor regularly and at fairly random intervals (every time you
-update the package lists or upgrade or install a new package), thus
-masking other Tor traffic done from the same machine.  Using Tor will
-become normal for the machine in question.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;On &lt;a href=&quot;https://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox&quot;&gt;Freedombox&lt;/a&gt;, APT
-is set up by default to use &lt;tt&gt;apt-transport-tor&lt;/tt&gt; when Tor is
-enabled.  It would be great if it was the default on any Debian
-system.&lt;/p&gt;

+melder i dag at flertallet i Familie- og kulturkomiteen på Stortinget
+har bestemt seg for å introdusere en ny sensurinfrastruktur i Norge.
+Fra før har Norge en «frivillig» sensurinfrastruktur basert på
+DNS-navn, der de største ISP-ene basert på en liste med DNS-navn
+forgifter DNS-svar og omdirigerer til et annet IP-nummer enn det som
+ligger i DNS.  Nå kommer altså IP-basert omdirigering i tillegg.  Når
+infrastrukturen er på plass, er sensur av IP-adresser redusert et
+spørsmål om hvilke IP-nummer som skal blokkeres.  Listen over
+IP-adresser vil naturligvis endre seg etter hvert som myndighetene
+endrer seg.  Det er ingen betryggende tanke.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Det kommer stadig nye løsninger for å ta lagre unna innslag fra NRK
-for å se på det senere.  For en stund tilbake kom jeg over et script
-nrkopptak laget av Ingvar Hagelund.  Han fjernet riktignok sitt script
-etter forespørsel fra Erik Bolstad i NRK, men noen tok heldigvis og
-gjorde det &lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/liangqi/nrkopptak&quot;&gt;tilgjengelig
-via github&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Scriptet kan lagre som MPEG4 eller Matroska, og bake inn
-undertekster i fila på et vis som blant annet VLC forstår.  For å
-bruke scriptet, kopier ned git-arkivet og kjør&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
-nrkopptak/bin/nrk-opptak k &lt;ahref=&quot;https://tv.nrk.no/serie/bmi-turne/MUHH45000115/sesong-1/episode-1&quot;&gt;https://tv.nrk.no/serie/bmi-turne/MUHH45000115/sesong-1/episode-1&lt;/a&gt;

-
-&lt;p&gt;URL-eksemplet er dagens toppsak på tv.nrk.no.  Argument &#39;k&#39; ber
-scriptet laste ned og lagre som Matroska.  Det finnes en rekke andre
-muligheter for valg av kvalitet og format.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Jeg foretrekker dette scriptet fremfor youtube-dl, som

-av at nrkopptak samler undertekster og video i en enkelt fil, hvilket

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Brevpost er beskyttet av straffelovens bestemmelse som gjør det
+kriminelt å åpne andres brev.  Dette følger av (ny) straffelovs
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://lovdata.no/dokument/NL/lov/2005-05-20-28/§205&quot;&gt;§ 205
+(Krenkelse av retten til privat kommunikasjon)&lt;/a&gt;, som sier at «Med
+bot eller fengsel inntil 2 år straffes den som uberettiget ...  c)
+åpner brev eller annen lukket skriftlig meddelelse som er adressert
+til en annen, eller på annen måte skaffer seg uberettiget tilgang til
+innholdet.» Dette gjelder såvel postbud som alle andre som har
+befatning med brevet etter at avsender har befatning med et lukket
+brev. Tilsvarende står også tidligere utgaver av den norske
+straffeloven.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Når en registrerer seg på usikre digitale postkasseløsningene, som
+f.eks. Digipost og e-Boks, og slik tar disse i bruk, så gir en de som
+står bak løsningene tillatelse til å åpne sine brev.  Dette er
+nødvendig for at innholdet i digital post skal kunne vises frem til
+mottaker via tjenestens websider.  Dermed gjelder ikke straffelovens
+paragraf om forbud mot å åpne brev, da tilgangen ikke lenger er
+uberettiget.  En gir altså fremmede tilgang til å lese sin
+korrespondanse.  I tillegg vil bruk av slike usikre digitale
+postbokser føre til at det blir registrert når du leser brevene, hvor
+du befinner deg (vha. tilkoblingens IP-adresse), hvilket utstyr du
+bruker og en rekke annen personlig informasjon som ikke er
+tilgjengelig når papirpost brukes.  Jeg foretrekker at det er
+lovmessig beskyttelse av min korrespondanse, som jo inneholder privat
+og personlig informasjon.  Det bidrar til litt bedre vern av personlig
+integritet i dagens norske samfunn.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;When I was a kid, we used to collect &quot;car numbers&quot;, as we used to
-call the car license plate numbers in those days.  I would write the
-numbers down in my little book and compare notes with the other kids
-to see how many region codes we had seen and if we had seen some
-exotic or special region codes and numbers.  It was a fun game to pass
-time, as we kids have plenty of it.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;A few days I came across
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/openalpr/openalpr&quot;&gt;the OpenALPR
-project&lt;/a&gt;, a free software project to automatically discover and
-report license plates in images and video streams, and provide the
-&quot;car numbers&quot; in a machine readable format.  I&#39;ve been looking for
-such system for a while now, because I believe it is a bad idea that the
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_number_plate_recognition&quot;&gt;automatic
-number plate recognition&lt;/a&gt; tool only is available in the hands of
-the powerful, and want it to be available also for the powerless to
-even the score when it comes to surveillance and sousveillance.  I
-discovered the developer
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.debian.org/747509&quot;&gt;wanted to get the tool into
-Debian&lt;/a&gt;, and as I too wanted it to be in Debian, I volunteered to
-help him get it into shape to get the package uploaded into the Debian
-archive.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Today we finally managed to get the package into shape and uploaded
-it into Debian, where it currently
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://ftp-master.debian.org//new/openalpr_2.2.1-1.html&quot;&gt;waits
-in the NEW queue&lt;/a&gt; for review by the Debian ftpmasters.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I guess you are wondering why on earth such tool would be useful
-for the common folks, ie those not running a large government
-surveillance system?  Well, I plan to put it in a computer on my bike
-and in my car, tracking the cars nearby and allowing me to be notified
-when number plates on my watch list are discovered.  Another use case
-was suggested by a friend of mine, who wanted to set it up at his home
-to open the car port automatically when it discovered the plate on his
-car.  When I mentioned it perhaps was a bit foolhardy to allow anyone
-capable of placing his license plate number of a piece of cardboard to
-open his car port, men replied that it was always unlocked anyway.  I
-guess for such use case it make sense.  I am sure there are other use
-cases too, for those with imagination and a vision.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;If you want to build your own version of the Debian package, check
-out the upstream git source and symlink ./distros/debian to ./debian/
-before running &quot;debuild&quot; to build the source.  Or wait a bit until the
-package show up in unstable.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;The leaders of the worlds have started to congratulate the
+re-elected Russian head of state, and this causes some criticism.  I
+am though a little fascinated by a comment from USA senator John McCain,
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://thehill.com/homenews/senate/379339-mccain-rips-trumps-congratulatory-call-to-putin-as-insult-to-russian-people&quot;&gt;sited
+by The Hill and others&lt;/a&gt;:
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&quot;An American president does not lead the Free World by
+congratulating dictators on winning sham elections.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;While I totally agree with the senator here, the way the quote is
+phrased make me suspect that he is unaware of the simple fact that USA
+have not lead the Free World since at least before its government
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maher_Arar&quot;&gt;kidnapped a
+completely innocent Canadian citizen in transit on his way home to
+Canada via John F. Kennedy International Airport in September 2002 and
+sent him to be tortured in Syria for a year&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;USA might be running ahead, but the path they are taking is not the
+one taken by any Free World.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <title>Using appstream with isenkram to install hardware related packages in Debian</title>
-               <link>http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Using_appstream_with_isenkram_to_install_hardware_related_packages_in_Debian.html</link>
-               <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Using_appstream_with_isenkram_to_install_hardware_related_packages_in_Debian.html</guid>
-                <pubDate>Sun, 20 Dec 2015 12:20:00 +0100</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Around three years ago, I created
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://packages.qa.debian.org/isenkram&quot;&gt;the isenkram
-system&lt;/a&gt; to get a more practical solution in Debian for handing
-hardware related packages.  A GUI system in the isenkram package will
-present a pop-up dialog when some hardware dongle supported by
-relevant packages in Debian is inserted into the machine.  The same
-lookup mechanism to detect packages is available as command line
-tools in the isenkram-cli package.  In addition to mapping hardware,
-it will also map kernel firmware files to packages and make it easy to
-install needed firmware packages automatically.  The key for this
-system to work is a good way to map hardware to packages, in other
-words, allow packages to announce what hardware they will work
-with.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I started by providing data files in the isenkram source, and
-adding code to download the latest version of these data files at run
-time, to ensure every user had the most up to date mapping available.
-I also added support for storing the mapping in the Packages file in
-the apt repositories, but did not push this approach because while I
-was trying to figure out how to best store hardware/package mappings,
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/&quot;&gt;the
-appstream system&lt;/a&gt; was announced.  I got in touch and suggested to
-add the hardware mapping into that data set to be able to use
-appstream as a data source, and this was accepted at least for the
-Debian version of appstream.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;A few days ago using appstream in Debian for this became possible,
-and today I uploaded a new version 0.20 of isenkram adding support for
-appstream as a data source for mapping hardware to packages.  The only
-package so far using appstream to announce its hardware support is my
-pymissile package.  I got help from Matthias Klumpp with figuring out
-how do add the required
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://appstream.debian.org/html/sid/main/metainfo/pymissile.html&quot;&gt;metadata
-in pymissile&lt;/a&gt;.  I added a file debian/pymissile.metainfo.xml with
-this content:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
-&amp;lt;?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot; encoding=&quot;UTF-8&quot;?&amp;gt;
-&amp;lt;component&amp;gt;
-  &amp;lt;id&amp;gt;pymissile&amp;lt;/id&amp;gt;
-  &amp;lt;metadata_license&amp;gt;MIT&amp;lt;/metadata_license&amp;gt;
-  &amp;lt;name&amp;gt;pymissile&amp;lt;/name&amp;gt;
-  &amp;lt;summary&amp;gt;Control original Striker USB Missile Launcher&amp;lt;/summary&amp;gt;
-  &amp;lt;description&amp;gt;
-    &amp;lt;p&amp;gt;
-      Pymissile provides a curses interface to control an original
-      Marks and Spencer / Striker USB Missile Launcher, as well as a
-      motion control script to allow a webcamera to control the
-      launcher.
-    &amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;
-  &amp;lt;/description&amp;gt;
-  &amp;lt;provides&amp;gt;
-    &amp;lt;modalias&amp;gt;usb:v1130p0202d*&amp;lt;/modalias&amp;gt;
-  &amp;lt;/provides&amp;gt;
-&amp;lt;/component&amp;gt;
-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The key for isenkram is the component/provides/modalias value,
-which is a glob style match rule for hardware specific strings
-(modalias strings) provided by the Linux kernel.  In this case, it
-will map to all USB devices with vendor code 1130 and product code
-0202.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Note, it is important that the license of all the metadata files
-are compatible to have permissions to aggregate them into archive wide
-appstream files.  Matthias suggested to use MIT or BSD licenses for
-these files.  A challenge is figuring out a good id for the data, as
-it is supposed to be globally unique and shared across distributions
-(in other words, best to coordinate with upstream what to use).  But
-it can be changed later or, so we went with the package name as
-upstream for this project is dormant.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;To get the metadata file installed in the correct location for the
-mirror update scripts to pick it up and include its content the
-appstream data source, the file must be installed in the binary
-package under /usr/share/appdata/.  I did this by adding the following
-line to debian/pymissile.install:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
-debian/pymissile.metainfo.xml usr/share/appdata
-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;With that in place, the command line tool isenkram-lookup will list
-all packages useful on the current computer automatically, and the GUI
-pop-up handler will propose to install the package not already
-installed if a hardware dongle is inserted into the machine in
-question.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Details of the modalias field in appstream is available from the 
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://wiki.debian.org/DEP-11&quot;&gt;DEP-11&lt;/a&gt; proposal.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;To locate the modalias values of all hardware present in a machine,
-try running this command on the command line:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
-cat $(find /sys/devices/|grep modalias)
-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;So, Cambridge Analytica is getting some well deserved criticism for
+(mis)using information it got from Facebook about 50 million people,
+mostly in the USA.  What I find a bit surprising, is how little
+criticism Facebook is getting for handing the information over to
+Cambridge Analytica and others in the first place.  And what about the
+people handing their private and personal information to Facebook?
+And last, but not least, what about the government offices who are
+handing information about the visitors of their web pages to Facebook?
+No-one who looked at the terms of use of Facebook should be surprised
+that information about peoples interests, political views, personal
+lifes and whereabouts would be sold by Facebook.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;What I find to be the real scandal is the fact that Facebook is
+selling your personal information, not that one of the buyers used it
+in a way Facebook did not approve when exposed.  It is well known that
+Facebook is selling out their users privacy, but a scandal
+nevertheless.  Of course the information provided to them by Facebook
+would be misused by one of the parties given access to personal
+information about the millions of Facebook users.  Collected
+information will be misused sooner or later.  The only way to avoid
+such misuse, is to not collect the information in the first place.  If
+you do not want Facebook to hand out information about yourself for
+the use and misuse of its customers, do not give Facebook the
+information.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Personally, I would recommend to completely remove your Facebook
+account, and take back some control of your personal information.
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/mar/19/how-to-protect-your-facebook-privacy-or-delete-yourself-completely&quot;&gt;According
+to The Guardian&lt;/a&gt;, it is a bit hard to find out how to request
+account removal (and not just &#39;disabling&#39;).  You need to
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.facebook.com/help/224562897555674?helpref=faq_content&quot;&gt;visit
+a specific Facebook page&lt;/a&gt; and click on &#39;let us know&#39; on that page
+to get to &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.facebook.com/help/delete_account&quot;&gt;the
+real account deletion screen&lt;/a&gt;.  Perhaps something to consider?  I
+would not trust the information to really be deleted (who knows,
+perhaps NSA, GCHQ and FRA already got a copy), but it might reduce the
+exposure a bit.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;If you want to learn more about the capabilities of Cambridge
+Analytica, I recommend to see the video recording of the one hour talk
+Paul-Olivier Dehaye gave to &lt;a href=&quot;&quot;&gt;NUUG&lt;/a&gt; last april about
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.nuug.no/aktiviteter/20170404-big-data-psychometric/&quot;&gt;
+Data collection, psychometric profiling and their impact on
+politics&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;And if you want to communicate with your friends and loved ones,
+use some end-to-end encrypted method like
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.signal.org/&quot;&gt;Signal&lt;/a&gt; or
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://ring.cx/&quot;&gt;Ring&lt;/a&gt;, and stop sharing your private
+messages with strangers like Facebook and Google.&lt;/p&gt;

-&lt;p&gt;Jeg ble gledelig overrasket i dag da jeg oppdaget at boken jeg har
-gitt ut
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.amazon.com/Fri-kultur-Norwegian-Lawrence-Lessig/dp/8269018236/&quot;&gt;hadde
-dukket opp i Amazon&lt;/a&gt;.  Jeg hadde trodd det skulle ta lenger tid, da
-jeg fikk beskjed om at det skulle ta seks til åtte uker.
-Amazonoppføringen er et resultat av at jeg for noen uker siden
-diskuterte prissetting og håndtering av profitt med forfatteren.  Det
-måtte avklares da bruksvilkårene til boken har krav om
-ikke-kommersiell bruk.  Vi ble enige om at overskuddet fra salg av
-boken skal sendes til
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://creativecommons.org/&quot;&gt;Creative Commons-stiftelsen&lt;/a&gt;.
-Med det på plass kunne jeg be
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.lulu.com/shop/lawrence-lessig/fri-kultur/paperback/product-22441576.html&quot;&gt;lulu.com&lt;/a&gt;
-om å gi boken «utvidet» distribusjon.  Årsaken til at
-bokhandeldistribusjon var litt utfordrende er at bokhandlere krever
-mulighet for profitt på bøkene de selger (selvfølgelig), og dermed
-måtte de få lov til å selge til høyere pris enn lulu.com.  I tillegg
-er det krav om samme pris på lulu.com og i bokhandlene, dermed blir
-prisen økt også hos lulu.com.  Hva skulle jeg gjøre med den profitten
-uten å bryte med klausulen om ikkekommersiell?  Løsningen var å gi
-bort profitten til CC-stiftelsen.  Prisen på boken ble nesten
-tredoblet, til $19.99 (ca. 160,-) pluss frakt, men synligheten øker
-betraktelig når den kan finnes i katalogene til store nettbokhandlere.
-Det betyr at hvis du allerede har kjøpt boken har du fått den veldig
-billig, og kjøper du den nå, får du den fortsatt billig samt donerer i
-tillegg noen tiere til fremme av Creative Commons.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Mens jeg var i gang med å titte etter informasjon om boken 
-oppdaget jeg  at den også var dukket opp på
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://books.google.no/books?id=uKUGCwAAQBAJ&quot;&gt;Google
-Books&lt;/a&gt;, der en kan lese den på web.  PDF-utgaven har ennå ikke
-dukket opp hos &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.nb.no/&quot;&gt;Nasjonalbiblioteket&lt;/a&gt;,
-men det regner jeg med kommer på plass i løpet av noen uker.  Boken er
-heller ikke dukket opp hos
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.barnesandnoble.com/&quot;&gt;Barnes &amp; Noble&lt;/a&gt; ennå, men
-jeg antar det bare er et tidsspørsmål før dette er på plass.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Boken er dessverre ikke tilgjengelig fra norske bokhandlere, og
-kommer neppe til å bli det med det første.  Årsaken er at for å få det
-til måtte jeg personlig håndtere bestilling av bøker, hvilket jeg ikke
-er interessert i å bruke tid på.  Jeg kunne betalt ca 2000,- til
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bokbasen.no/&quot;&gt;den norske bokbasen&lt;/a&gt;, en felles
-database over bøker tilgjengelig for norske bokhandlere, for å få en
-oppføring der, men da måtte jeg tatt imot bestillinger på epost og
-sendt ut bøker selv.  Det ville krevd at jeg var klar til å
-sende ut bøker på kort varsel, dvs. holdt meg med ekstra bøker,
-konvolutter og frimerker.  Bokbasen har visst ikke opplegg for å be
-bokhandlene bestille direkte via web, så jeg droppet oppføring der.
-Jeg har spurt Haugen bok og Tronsmo direkte på epost om de er
-interessert i å ta inn boken i sin bestillingskatalog, men ikke fått
-svar, så jeg antar de ikke er interessert.  Derimot har jeg fått en
-hyggelig henvendelse fra Biblioteksentralen som fortalte at de har
-lagt den inn i sin database slik at deres bibliotekskunder enkelt kan
-bestille den via dem.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Boken er i følge
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://bibsys-almaprimo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com/primo_library/libweb/action/display.do?tabs=detailsTab&amp;ct=display&amp;fn=search&amp;doc=BIBSYS_ILS71518423420002201&amp;indx=1&amp;recIds=BIBSYS_ILS71518423420002201&amp;recIdxs=0&amp;elementId=0&amp;renderMode=poppedOut&amp;displayMode=full&amp;frbrVersion=&amp;dscnt=0&amp;tab=library_catalogue&amp;dstmp=1448543801124&amp;vl(freeText0)=fri%20kultur&amp;vid=UBO&amp;mode=Basic&quot;&gt;Bibsys/Oria&lt;/a&gt;
-og bokdatabasen til
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.deich.folkebibl.no/cgi-bin/websok?tnr=1819617&quot;&gt;Deichmanske&lt;/a&gt;
-tilgjengelig fra flere biblioteker allerede, og alle eksemplarer er
-visst allerede utlånt med ventetid.  Det synes jeg er veldig gledelig
-å se.  Jeg håper mange kommer til å lese boken.  Jeg tror den er
-spesielt egnet for foreldre og bekjente av oss nerder for å forklare
-hva slags problemer vi ser med dagens opphavsrettsregime.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;I går kom det nok et argument for å holde seg unna det norske
+helsevesenet.  Da annonserte et stortingsflertall, bestående av Høyre,
+Arbeiderpartiet, Fremskrittspartiet og Venstre, at de går inn for å
+samle inn og lagre DNA-prøver fra hele befolkningen i Norge til evig
+tid.  Endringen gjelder innsamlede blodprøver fra nyfødte i Norge.
+Det vil dermed ta litt tid før en har hele befolkningen, men det er
+dit vi havner gitt nok tid.  I dag er det nesten hundre prosent
+oppslutning om undersøkelsen som gjøres like etter fødselen, på
+bakgrunn av blodprøven det er snakk om å lagre, for å oppdage endel
+medfødte sykdommer.  Blodprøven lagres i dag i inntil seks år.
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.stortinget.no/no/Saker-og-publikasjoner/Publikasjoner/Innstillinger/Stortinget/2017-2018/inns-201718-182l/?all=true&quot;&gt;Stortingets
+flertallsinnstilling&lt;/a&gt; er at tidsbegrensingen skal fjernes, og mener
+at tidsubegrenset lagring ikke vil påvirke oppslutningen om
+undersøkelsen.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Datatilsynet har ikke akkurat applaudert forslaget:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
+
+  &lt;p&gt;«Datatilsynet mener forslaget ikke i tilstrekkelig grad
+  synliggjør hvilke etiske og personvernmessige utfordringer som må
+  diskuteres før en etablerer en nasjonal biobank med blodprøver fra
+  hele befolkningen.»&lt;/p&gt;
+  
+&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Det er flere historier om hvordan innsamlet biologisk materiale har
+blitt brukt til andre formål enn de ble innsamlet til, og historien om
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.aftenposten.no/norge/i/Ql0WR/Na-ma-Folkehelsa-slette-uskyldiges-DNA-info&quot;&gt;folkehelseinstituttets
+lagring på vegne av politiet (Kripos) av innsamlet biologisk materiale
+og DNA-informasjon i strid med loven&lt;/a&gt; viser at en ikke kan være
+trygg på at lover og intensjoner beskytter de som blir berørt mot
+misbruk av slik privat og personlig informasjon.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Det er verdt å merke seg at det kan forskes på de innsamlede
+blodprøvene uten samtykke fra den det gjelder (eller foreldre når det
+gjelder barn), etter en lovendring for en stund tilbake, med mindre
+det er sendt inn skjema der en reserverer seg mot forskning uten
+samtykke.  Skjemaet er tilgjengelig fra
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.fhi.no/arkiv/publikasjoner/for-pasienter-skjema-for-reservasjo/&quot;&gt;folkehelseinstituttets
+websider&lt;/a&gt;, og jeg anbefaler, uavhengig av denne saken, varmt alle å
+sende inn skjemaet for å dokumentere hvor mange som ikke synes det er
+greit å fjerne krav om samtykke.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I tillegg bør en kreve destruering av alt biologisk materiale som
+er samlet inn om en selv, for å redusere eventuelle negative
+konsekvenser i fremtiden når materialet kommer på avveie eller blir
+brukt uten samtykke, men det er så vidt jeg vet ikke noe system for
+dette i dag.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Som vanlig, hvis du bruker Bitcoin og ønsker å vise din støtte til
+det jeg driver med, setter jeg pris på om du sender Bitcoin-donasjoner
+til min adresse
+&lt;b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;bitcoin:15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b&quot;&gt;15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;A blog post from my fellow Debian developer Paul Wise titled
-&quot;&lt;a href=&quot;http://bonedaddy.net/pabs3/log/2015/11/27/sfc-supporter/&quot;&gt;The
-GPL is not magic pixie dust&lt;/a&gt;&quot; explain the importance of making sure
-the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html&quot;&gt;GPL&lt;/a&gt; is enforced.
-I quote the blog post from Paul in full here with his permission:&lt;p&gt;

-The GPL is not magic pixie dust. It does not work by itself.&lt;br/&gt;
-
-The first step is to choose a
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://copyleft.org/&quot;&gt;copyleft&lt;/a&gt; license for your
-code.&lt;br/&gt;
-
-The next step is, when someone fails to follow that copyleft license,
-&lt;b&gt;it must be enforced&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
-
-and its a simple fact of our modern society that such type of
-work&lt;br/&gt;
-
-is incredibly expensive to do and incredibly difficult to do.

-imply, public domain and permissively licensed software can lead to
-the production of more proprietary software as people discover useful
-software, extend it and or incorporate it into their hardware or
-software products.  Copyleft licenses such as the GNU GPL were created
-to close off this avenue to the production of proprietary software but
-such licenses are not enough.  With the ongoing adoption of Free
-Software by individuals and groups, inevitably the community&#39;s
-expectations of license compliance are violated, usually out of
-ignorance of the way Free Software works, but not always.  As Karen
-and Bradley explained in &lt;a href=&quot;http://faif.us/&quot; title=&quot;Free as in
-Freedom&quot;&gt;FaiF&lt;/a&gt;
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://faif.us/cast/2015/nov/24/0x57/&quot;&gt;episode 0x57&lt;/a&gt;,
-copyleft is nothing if no-one is willing and able to stand up in court
-to protect it.  The reality of today&#39;s world is that legal
-representation is expensive, difficult and time consuming.  With
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://gpl-violations.org/&quot;&gt;gpl-violations.org&lt;/a&gt; in hiatus
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://gpl-violations.org/news/20151027-homepage-recovers/&quot;&gt;until&lt;/a&gt;
-some time in 2016, the &lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/&quot;&gt;Software
-Freedom Conservancy&lt;/a&gt; (a tax-exempt charity) is the major defender
-of the Linux project, Debian and other groups against GPL violations.
-In March the SFC supported a
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/news/2015/mar/05/vmware-lawsuit/&quot;&gt;lawsuit
-by Christoph Hellwig&lt;/a&gt; against VMware for refusing to
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/linux-compliance/vmware-lawsuit-faq.html&quot;&gt;comply
-with the GPL&lt;/a&gt; in relation to their use of parts of the Linux
-kernel.  Since then two of their sponsors pulled corporate funding and
-conferences
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2015/nov/24/faif-carols-fundraiser/&quot;&gt;blocked
-or cancelled their talks&lt;/a&gt;.  As a result they have decided to rely
-less on corporate funding and more on the broad community of
-individuals who support Free Software and copyleft.  So the SFC has
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/news/2015/nov/23/2015fundraiser/&quot;&gt;launched&lt;/a&gt;
-a &lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/supporter/&quot;&gt;campaign&lt;/a&gt; to create
-a community of folks who stand up for copyleft and the GPL by
-supporting their work on promoting and supporting copyleft and Free
-Software.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;If you support Free Software,
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2015/nov/26/like-what-I-do/&quot;&gt;like&lt;/a&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;I am working on publishing yet another book related to Creative
+Commons.  This time it is a book filled with interviews and histories
+from those around the globe making a living using Creative
+Commons.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Yesterday, after many months of hard work by several volunteer
+translators, the first draft of a Norwegian Bokmål edition of the book
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://madewith.cc&quot;&gt;Made with Creative Commons from 2017&lt;/a&gt;
+was complete.  The Spanish translation is also complete, while the
+Dutch, Polish, German and Ukraine edition need a lot of work.  Get in
+touch if you want to help make those happen, or would like to
+translate into your mother tongue.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The whole book project started when
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://gwolf.org/node/4102&quot;&gt;Gunnar Wolf announced&lt;/a&gt; that he
+was going to make a Spanish edition of the book.  I noticed, and
+offered some input on how to make a book, based on my experience with
+translating the
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.lulu.com/shop/lawrence-lessig/fri-kultur/paperback/product-22441576.html&quot;&gt;Free
+Culture&lt;/a&gt; and
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://debian-handbook.info/get/#norwegian&quot;&gt;The Debian
+Administrator&#39;s Handbook&lt;/a&gt; books to Norwegian Bokmål.  To make a
+long story short, we ended up working on a Bokmål edition, and now the
+first rough translation is complete, thanks to the hard work of
+Ole-Erik Yrvin, Ingrid Yrvin, Allan Nordhøy and myself.  The first
+proof reading is almost done, and only the second and third proof
+reading remains.  We will also need to translate the 14 figures and
+create a book cover.  Once it is done we will publish the book on
+paper, as well as in PDF, ePub and possibly Mobi formats.&lt;/p&gt;

+&lt;p&gt;The book itself originates as a manuscript on Google Docs, is
+downloaded as ODT from there and converted to Markdown using pandoc.
+The Markdown is modified by a script before is converted to DocBook
+using pandoc.  The DocBook is modified again using a script before it
+is used to create a Gettext POT file for translators.  The translated
+PO file is then combined with the earlier mentioned DocBook file to
+create a translated DocBook file, which finally is given to dblatex to
+create the final PDF.  The end result is a set of editions of the
+manuscript, one English and one for each of the translations.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The translation is conducted using
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/madewithcc/translation/&quot;&gt;the
+Weblate web based translation system&lt;/a&gt;.  Please have a look there
+and get in touch if you would like to help out with proof
+reading. :)&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;I&#39;ve needed a new OpenPGP key for a while, but have not had time to
-set it up properly.  I wanted to generate it offline and have it
-available on &lt;a href=&quot;http://shop.kernelconcepts.de/#openpgp&quot;&gt;a OpenPGP
-smart card&lt;/a&gt; for daily use, and learning how to do it and finding
-time to sit down with an offline machine almost took forever.  But
-finally I&#39;ve been able to complete the process, and have now moved
-from my old GPG key to a new GPG key.  See
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2015-11-17-new-gpg-key-transition.txt&quot;&gt;the
-full transition statement, signed with both my old and new key&lt;/a&gt; for
-the details.  This is my new key:&lt;/p&gt;

-&lt;p&gt;The key can be downloaded from the OpenPGP key servers, signed by
-my old key.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;If you signed my old key
-(&lt;a href=&quot;http://pgp.cs.uu.nl/stats/DB4CCC4B2A30D729.html&quot;&gt;DB4CCC4B2A30D729&lt;/a&gt;),
-I&#39;d very much appreciate a signature on my new key, details and
-instructions in the transition statement. I m happy to reciprocate if
-you have a similarly signed transition statement to present.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Today I was pleasantly surprised to discover my operating system of
+choice, Debian, was used in the info screens on the subway stations.
+While passing Nydalen subway station in Oslo, Norway, I discovered the
+info screen booting with some text scrolling.  I was not quick enough
+with my camera to be able to record a video of the scrolling boot
+screen, but I did get a photo from when the boot got stuck with a
+corrupt file system:
+
+&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2018-03-02-ruter-debian-lenny.jpeg&quot;&gt;&lt;img align=&quot;center&quot; width=&quot;40%&quot; src=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2018-03-02-ruter-debian-lenny.jpeg&quot; alt=&quot;[photo of subway info screen]&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;While I am happy to see Debian used more places, some details of the
+content on the screen worries me.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The image show the version booting is &#39;Debian GNU/Linux lenny/sid&#39;,
+indicating that this is based on code taken from Debian Unstable/Sid
+after Debian Etch (version 4) was released 2007-04-08 and before
+Debian Lenny (version 5) was released 2009-02-14.  Since Lenny Debian
+has released version 6 (Squeeze) 2011-02-06, 7 (Wheezy) 2013-05-04, 8
+(Jessie) 2015-04-25 and 9 (Stretch) 2017-06-15, according to
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debian_version_history&quot;&gt;a Debian
+version history on Wikpedia&lt;/a&gt;.  This mean the system is running
+around 10 year old code, with no security fixes from the vendor for
+many years.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;This is not the first time I discover the Oslo subway company,
+Ruter, running outdated software.  In 2012,
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Er_billettautomatene_til_kollektivtrafikken_i_Oslo_uten_sikkerhetsoppdateringer_.html&quot;&gt;I
+discovered the ticket vending machines were running Windows 2000&lt;/a&gt;,
+and this was
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Fortsatt_ingen_sikkerhetsoppdateringer_for_billettautomatene_til_kollektivtrafikken_i_Oslo_.html&quot;&gt;still
+the case in 2016&lt;/a&gt;.  Given the response from the responsible people
+in 2016, I would assume the machines are still running unpatched
+Windows 2000.  Thus, an unpatched Debian setup come as no surprise.&lt;/p&gt;
