a high-profile software project proudly announcing that it's going to start "using AI" is basically the same thing to me as seeing a big "this repo is archived" banner. perhaps even worse in some respects? intentionally or not, the message it sends is "we don't really enjoy programming and we don't want to work on this anymore, but rather than retire the project we're going to do a really lackluster job from now on". like if your favorite coffee brand proudly announced "now 20% more sawdust"

"Al slop [...] was just vomited into existence."

I keep wondering what they were smoking at Digital Equipment Corporation when they designed the logo for their Alpha CPUs

Had a bit of an improvised hacking amd socialozing weekend with @fossdd and @adrianyyy coming to visit at my place! Lots of chatting and hacking! We mostly worked on pmaports maintenance, documentation, systemd sub packages, mainline kernel in pmaports and HW-CI integration

Just a heads up for my #Filipino fediverse (and Bluesky) folk:

Are you familiar with something called Bayanihan Linux? If so, then if you have copies of versions 1.0 to 4.0, Bayanihan Linux Government Edition, and the Bayanihan Linux 5 add-on discs, please let me know.

Yesterday the #postmarketos gitlab instance unfortunately experienced some data loss from an infra problem. It's easy to blame the people handling the infra, but let me say that I'm super grateful that we have the #OSUOSL around and don't have to go it alone.

Without @ramereth and his team of students, we would be spending many hours attempting to manage this critical infra on our own instead of focusing on our mission.

@ramereth and #OSUOSL are truly amazing! Thank you for all you do! ❤️

Audio is working for #PostmarketOS on #Fairphone5! 🎉

Congrats to Alexandre Ferrieux, who achieved this result, and to all contributors of @postmarketOS for providing a truly alternative and independent operating system for mobile! 💚

Now, AFAIK, Fairphone 5 will become the first mobile device where almost everything works with pmOS 🤩
