Linux Foundation to oversee DoW & FutureG Open Sourcing 6G radio next month on GitHub

The office of the Under Secretary of War for Research and Engineering, in conjunction with the National Spectrum Consortium announced that the first version of the Open Centralized Unit Distributed Unit (OCUDU) radio access network project will be published to GitHub next month, welcoming the participation and contribution of talent from the general public, academia, and industry.

Chief program officer at the National Spectrum Consortium, Mari Silbey, stated that this will provide, "a software stack so that developers don’t have to start from scratch, but they can instead focus on building new things on top of those basic radio functions,” and further, creating an environment where developers can deploy novel wireless technology of their own envisioning.

#FutureG director Tom Rondeau states that what they're hoping to foster, "is a marketplace of competitive ideas,” in an environment where individuals can, "really break that open to this friendly, open development ecosystem".

The Linux Foundation, working closely with the Pentagon, will provide oversight and control of the software repo on GitHub, and as of the beginning of this month announced that 47 organizations have come together as founders of the OCUDU Ecosystem Foundation, including SoftBank, AMD, UC San Diego, AT&T, Ericsson, Redhat, Verizon, Cisco, Nokia, and Nvidia.

Gentoo moves too! In recent days, weeks, months, the fallout hasn't even begun - Microsoft is still weathering the blast itself. Even in the last couple of days viral videos are racking up millions of views covering what many people are hailing as the demise of Microsoft itself - to be certain, no one is shedding any tears. The first two defectors? HP and Samsung (PCs and Androids). Samsung removed preinstalled Microsoft apps from their devices and now other Android manufacturers are following suit. When you go to purchase an HP laptop now it comes with Linux by default (or you can, upon request, pay more for a Microsoft operating system). Following suit were Dell (same thing, Linux by default or your can request Windows 11 and pay more money for it), then Lenovo, ASUS, and Acer - pretty much everyone that matters has abandoned Microsoft. Even the retailers are bugging out - Best Buy, Walmart, and even Amazon are jumping ship, and I don't even need to explain why, but again, you can pay more to be subjected to invasive privacy mining. CoPilot and Recall may be the straws that broke the behemoth's back. And the shockwaves of ever larger concentric circles have found their way to Gentoo, the latest prominent project to begin the migration to CodeBerg according to Linux Journal. Adherence to the values of privacy and open source are cited, and Codeberg champions those values, themselves having moved to a hosted git software project that values those principles - Forgejo. There's a huge paradigmatic shift occurring with respect to how people view their privacy, and especially their identities and intellectual property. They've had enough of the dismissive subjugation and are realizing they can do much better, faster, with more privacy, and without tracking or malware pre-installed in their systems, for much less money. It will be interesting to see how the Redmond Dreadnought manages to maneuver this time; have they even the use of their rudder to persuade all of the major manufacturers of Android devices, desktop and laptop PCs to come back from the pasture into the slaughterhouse? #tallship #Gentoo #Codeberg #Forgejo #FOSS #Privacy

Woz uuuuuuup?

The subject, and rock star, in this 1976 photograph is the Apple I microcomputer. Of the two men in this photo, one is a talented, affable, friendly and approachable genius and superhero who created this personal computer. The other is Steve Jobs.

A turning point upon the precipice of an industrial and technological explosion that democratized computing for the masses, other contemporary superheroes were #Bill_Joy and Dr. Gary Kildall (Enjoy the video!)
