@HI_Greens different than the Microsoft graphics tool they bought years ago? That was kinda crappy but a lot of companies and governments bought it 30 years ago...
@the_turtle I think they've just used the same name.

@HI_Greens so microsoft perhaps could start some trademark bullshit. Ideally the French/EU code is so much better the "old" Visio gets forgotten.

@woody We haven't tried it out yet, we just found out about the French gov't's plans today.
One of us tried out a conference platform called BlueJeans, which came out at the same time as Zoom and had vastly better sound, but it did not survive as far as she knows.@HI_Greens
Yeah, Bluejeans was bought by Verizon and shut down. We've used Jitsi for the last ten years, and generally been happy with it, but it doesn't stretch to more than about 30 users very gracefully. -
➡️ France announced today it’s phasing out Teams, Zoom, etc. to be replaced with a French/European solution called Visio.
The data is hosted on @outscale
Transcripts and subtitles are also handled by French providers.
The target is set on 2027 for government agencies.
@HI_Greens how silly, they name it like the microsoft product for doing 2D vector graphics. Didn't they do any research?

@HI_Greens @woody the french state has another option for larger meetings and webinars though, it's called "Webinaire de l'État" and is based on #BigBlueButton and says it supports up to 350 people, as opposed to only 150 for Visio.
https://webinaire.numerique.gouv.fr/home@Equity7804 @HI_Greens
Yeah, to the best of my knowledge Big Blue Button has been widely used in American schools, so has a very active base of code contributors, but is pretty much targeted at the seminar use-case. But I haven't ever run it myself, so that's my second-hand impression. -

A recent blog post of LiveKit talks about their "Grok Voice Agent API in partnership with xAI". The beauty of FLOSS, no need to agree with the original developer!

@CubeThoughts Yuck! That doesn't sound very good

@HI_Greens @woody Again, doesn't mean that the French gvmt implementation is bad, just that upstream, they're a open source but for profit venture capital funded (from my quick look) US based company, which thinks integration with Grok is a competitive advantage.
I would assume the French are not implementing that API!

@HI_Greens I'm not sure how they get around Microsoft almost certainly having a trademark on the word Visio pertaining to software.

A small Irish fast food company turned over the trademark on Big Macs, so I guess a country with nukes shouldn't have any issue

It can be self-hosted

@HI_Greens I'm not sure I understand the anti-Microsoft sentiment when at the same time there's a pro-Google one.

@HI_Greens me, a person familiar with many products: "Oh *fuck*."
(Yes, Microslop owns the trademark worldwide including the EU. 000077180. And has a bulletproof claim. They're gonna wanna change that name... rapide.)

@rootwyrm It seems strange. I suppose they could have paid to use it, but why pay money for a worn-out brandname, when it's easier to just think up a new one?

@HI_Greens I'm sure Microsoft would like to have a word about the name....

This year I am not having much luck with drains. After the #Crapturday in the office, a kitchen drain got clogged. I decided to rush to the rescue with my drain snake. I dismantled and cleaned all the local pipes, then inserted the five-meter snake and, after some persistence, managed to get through. In other words, I was quite satisfied.
After putting everything back together, I realized I had actually solved nothing. So I armed myself with two bottles of liquid drain cleaner and poured them down the drain. Then I prepared a small pot of boiling water to pour in afterward. As soon as I poured it, it started gurgling (as expected) and going down.
Just as I was about to celebrate victory, some sort of explosion happened, spraying all the drain cleaner back at me. Needless to say, since I had not expected anything like that (and it was an unplanned operation), I was wearing a pair of trousers and a shirt I care about.
The result: trousers and shirt permanently stained with drain cleaner, and the drain even more clogged than before.
Now both the shirt and the trousers are in the washing machine with dye. They will become blue 🙂

@informapirata @Bastacosi io ho zero fiducia nei tribunali israeliani mentre spero prima o poi nella cpi. in ogni caso chi verrà dopo di lui sarà sicuro uguale a lui, perché è proprio il loro modo di vedere la politica finalizzata alla costruzione della grande israele

@tassoman l'è lia!

@kita @devol guarda abbiamo un bel casino e non riesco ad attivare nuovi account al momento, puoi nel frattempo fare l'account su https://chat.mozilla.org altrimenti ti farei aspettare...

@Bastacosi comunque Bibi spappolato da un missile iraniano significherebbe solo che verrebbe sostituito da uno peggiore. Preferirei che venisse condannato da un tribunale israeliano prima e che venisse poi consegnato subito dopo alle cure della CPI

@Bastacosi e infatti stasera ce lo hanno mostrato a bere un cappuccino...🤷♂️

@ermannodonatini @devol @internet ok, ti sto invitando alle stanze italiane matrix, dovresti già poterci entrare, attenzione che in alcune stanze non vedrai lo storico per motivi di privacy, comincerai a vedere i primi messaggi a breve :)

@dilmandila You know who’s winning now: arm dealers. Making billions selling arms. You know who’s not winning? Innocent and poor people. We’ve seen war before. It’s always like this. A disgrace for all humankind
