continuing the trend of changing the header background on floppy.cd-rom.net once per month, here’s the edit I made for July:)

For years we have been overwhelmed by the volume of code contributions we have to review, especially from new contributors.

AI has made the problem much worse.

That's why we are taking steps to reduce the burden on maintainers while still welcoming new contributors:

@godotengine LOUDER !

AI contributions have the added pain of being demoralizing. Reviewing PRs is already tedious work, but it is rewarding because reviewers generally feel that their efforts are contributing to educating a new contributor (who may become a future maintainer/reviewer). If your feedback on PRs is just being absorbed by a machine and not going towards mentoring a potential future maintainer, it becomes much harder to justify spending your free time on PR review.

@elly I think they were just curious about the blackberry and couldn't believe it :P

Used font is Dutch 801 Bold (Italic), Bitstream's version of Times Ten, which appeared to be close to the original logo but is not an exact match.

@justsoup Ariadne once made a model trained entirely on her IRC logs. It wasn't useful, but it was really funny.

@justin I never gave in to github to start with :)

After a long discussion with @aelin today I got thinking about how much I've seen many of the TCs (and myself!) in #postmarketOS change, improve, and develop (both humanly and technically) through the last 3 years since we started expanding the maintainer base. It is incredibly fulfilling to see people making mistakes and learning and improving. We all mess up, we all have our incompatibilities, but it just feels good to be part of this team

In less than two weeks I'll be joining Night of the refugees in the Netherlands to walk 50 kilometers to raise money for refugees!

the cops who have heard me chirp my bike airtag in his shed:

We are considering dropping armhf (specifically armv6, not armv7) from postmarketOS edge, since we barely have any devices that make use of this architecture among other reasons. Please read the full issue for details.

If this impacts you, let us know!
