Mission Libre
I am supporting this initiative so making this post to promote
We're Mission:Libre, a new project for teens that love free software!
We aim to get teens excited about software freedom and help them learn skills they'll need as they become tomorrow's free software contributors and activists.
We'll be spreading the word about free software to young people, building supportive communities where teens can explore technology with others, helping young people defend their right to use free software and encouraging them to take their interests further in higher education.

0AD videos
0AD is a A free, open-source game of ancient warfare I have been using vokoscreen-ng to make a few video casts of me playing the game.
The game is available on Linux, Windows and Mac
Videos
These videos are tagged as sensitive, this is a game of warfare, so there is violence and some blood in the game play, but this would be expected, so just doing the right thing here.
The videos are also up to an hour long.

I love free software day
Today it is I love free software day, a day to celebrate free software and why software freedom is important. I love free software day
Free software does not just mean free as in cost, free software gives us the freedom to Share, Modify, study and use software as we want to. This is important as knowing how software works helps, for example with transparency (what is it actually doing?). By being able to study how it works, having access to the code and the ability to modify we can change the software to our needs, so helps with translations for example. We can then share freely with others passing on that right to others so they, if they choose, can do the same.
