this benefit isn't really that convincing to me tbh

@elly ambient light sensor-equiped laptops existed even back in 2011 (my laptop has it)

"We are looking forward to your entry! No matter your background, everyone is welcome to be part of our event.
Your submission can be a short talk (max. 20 mins including questions), long talk (max. 60 mins including questions), workshop, meetup or discussion round (90 mins, for other durations please contact us).

The audience will consist of:
- kernel hackers
- distribution developers
- desktop environment maintainers
- activists
- end users
and potentially more groups of people. If your submission targets at least one of these groups, it's probably a good one! Ideally, it would also be related to postmarketOS in some way, but that is not a hard requirement."

Are you sure you want
computer now?

Getting a random call from a number I don't recognize:
- Hello?
- *kids giggling in distance, boy trying to not laugh while talking* Good afternoon ma'am, is you fridge running?
- *evil grin* Yes, it went to the store like half an hour ago
- *kids burst out laughing* Ok thanks, have a nice day

I'm glad they're spending their time trolling random people than wasting it on TikTok or Roblox

"you'll be left behind if you don't use LLMs"

this kind of thing has been said for a while for every single new hyped thing. "You'll be left behind if you don't use <this new and exciting thing>"

Yet, when one doesn't use that new and exciting thing, nothing really happens. Everyone forgets that hyped thing that was once new.

Phosh on pmOS on my Fairphone 6 after display, GPU and mobile data updates.

@cas (no seriously, stock barebones android looks so much like iOS nowadays

I hate it. It's like they tried to start converting their Material You design language to be iOS-like and stopped mid-way. It feels unpolished. I'll keep my sxmo/phosh/etc thank you)

Soooo... I spent a great deal of time yesterday trying to figure out why pmOS duranium images were breaking fastboot mode on the OnePlus 6 / 6T. This did not happen with mutable pmOS images. This wasn't caused by us using u-boot to EFI boot on this phone.

Wanna know the reason? Are you sure? Because here be dragons...

@cas oh, you switched back to Android after all

@cas @luana I was running on a PineTime for a little while. It isn't really comparable to the Apple Watch but it did work quite well with both wasp-os and Infinitime

scrolling thru photos and saw a very important eth0 one

@jn I switched to vim-classic. It's a very boring fork if I do say so myself. (and that's why I switched to it)

apk add vim-classic !vim

Fre(i)e Software GmbH is still/again searching for more Lomiri developers (or developers with a deep Qt 5/6 background). No AI-assisted hacking possible, (un)fortunately, rather real coding skills are required. You need to be able to present some references of earlier OSS project contributions, too. Please get in touch!

I mean... how about always removing ads?
They waste my precious time.

At long last, we have stolen the macOS from classic kernel extension Dont Steal Mac OS.kext
