So, let's get back to daily driving Mainline Linux on mobile devices!

I've been running @postmarketOS on an ancient Samsung tablet from 2012. Gotta say, feels surreal that it runs linux 6.x when all the LineageOS unofficial builds for it run on linux 3.x ... quite impressive when you think about it :) (Hardware support is also pretty good, main issue is camera, and stylus which I managed to get working)
I use it for light web browsing and as a kind of smaller laptop when I'm too lazy to carry around my current x86_64 laptop ^^

Sure, pmOS is not yet fully ready, but you can always still find some usecases here and there and excuses to use it daily :)

What's going on here? The matplotlib maintainer this story is about correctly notes that all the quotes from his post in the article are made up.

The FDA decided not to even review Moderna's mRNA flu vaccines for approval, even though the studies the FDA would be reviewing were conducted the way the FDA told Moderna to do them.

Now #Moderna expects that none of its other #mRNA #vaccines will be reviewed, and has halted studies on vaccines for EBV, HSV, and shingles.

A lot of people with herpes would be angry if they found out.

A lot of people who have family members with #MS -- now thought to be caused in part by EBV -- will be livid.

@justsoup what is a follow

@postmarketOS #postmarketos

where we are going, we don't need android or ios

@justsoup

#include <iostream>

int main() {
std::cout << "Hello world" << std::endl;
return 0;
}











oh wait that's c++

Is this the famous "law of equivalent exchange"?

@aelin @elly @craftyguy ah, thought this one had the logo inside the ABL as the newer ones do.

this specifically means: they rejected covering Wikipedia in AI slop. This means a generational gap apparently. ok mate

@justsoup how about the Cee programming language?

@karolherbst computers are just circuit boards

@elly @craftyguy What device is this and how did you change the boot logo?

@bagder it's so laughable, so cringe that they brag about "pull request diff performances". These days github is barely usable anymore for patch reviews. The pr review tool is broken and slow. The two distinct versions they offer are in competition which one is more broken. Half the patch context links they have never get you to the right place, and they collapse anything by default that's larger than a couple of dozens of lines. So many clicks for everything. And the slow UI reaction times...

If you use AI-generated code, you currently cannot claim copyright on it in the US. If you fail to disclose/disclaim exactly which parts were not written by a human, you forfeit your copyright claim on *the entire codebase*.

This means copyright notices and even licenses folks are putting on their vibe-coded GitHub repos are unenforceable. The AI-generated code, and possibly the whole project, becomes public domain.
