I (Peter) for one definitely trust @devrtz more than a company distracted by building a robot ;-)

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (31/2024): Ubuntu Touch 20.04 OTA 5 and Jolla C2 news

@fizzo Nice! Regarding the choice of the backend API. We're discussing if we shouldn't merge EV into Electrolysis: https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/phosh-ev/-/issues/1 - It already knows about different backends, so maybe that's easier and you want to investigate this?
I'd then follow your footsteps and move over the Kia/Hyundai bits too.

Hi @agx, I recently bought a second hand EV (Nissan Leaf) and was intrigued by this application you wrote: https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/phosh-ev/
I decided to add Nissan API support to it and it was a very fun project 😊
I used pyO3 to call this python library meant for Home Assistant and it’s working! https://github.com/dan-r/HomeAssistant-NissanConnect
I just need to figure out how to handle choice between Kia and Nissan and I will open a MR.

I am proud to annouce that the Gstreamer GTK4 plugin is now available in #Debian. This will allow to directly offload the load of video decoding to hardward via dmabuf, thus greatly reducing CPU load.

Just learned at #FOSSY24 (thanks to @allison ) about the #OpenInfra policy for AI generated content: https://openinfra.dev/legal/ai-policy (v0.9.2 at the time of my writing). It's a very reasonable approach, rooted in the best-practices that mature FOSS projects have applied for a very long time for vetting code contributions.

Just for the record: The Librem 5 has pogo pins for extension. There's a breakout board for that (https://shop.puri.sm/shop/librem-5-rigid-flex-breakout-board/) but you can also do without it.
There's also a breakout board to repurpose the M.2 slot:

@subins2000 @Anoop Looking forward to watch the video!
@whynothugo @arunmani I think I don't understand the intention then. If you want to do that in a regular window you'd call `gnome-control-center wifi`. (which is what happens when you tap "Wi-Fi Settings").

I had a peaceful calm talk today, usually I rush things up. A talk that I can finally place in peace to http://subinsb.com/talks (page under construction).

Since 2010, the Debian Snapshot service functions as a "wayback machine" that allows access to old packages based on dates and version numbers. However, this service has been in need for big maintenance for quite a while. Luckily, thanks to Glasklar Teknik AB and DSA in June 2024 the service has been migrated to new hardware and is now fully up and running again: enjoy https://snapshot.debian.org/ https://micronews.debian.org/2024/1722416374.html #debian
@whynothugo @arunmani We don't use Windows only Linux 😃 .
Seriously: I guess you mean popping up a separate dialog for the selection? That would work too but would make other potentially relevant information hidden. Having it all in one "vertical column" avoids this. This will become more visible when we don't swap out the quick settings for the status page anymore.
@ahoneybun They ship both. squeekboard being the default there atm.
@ahoneybun Are you on squeekboard or phosh-osk-stub? It only shows for phosh-osk-stub as squeeboard doesn't support those (yet?).

All set up for #FOSSY24!
Come talk to us about #postmarketOS, #linuxmobile, or #systemd!
@chfkch This looks like the right approach to me until we're in more feature complete waters. Alternative would be to only release 1-3 times a year.
@chfkch No worries. If you look into the related MRs you'll already see mentions about future widgetry that will improve on this (or just wait until it materializes 😃).
It's as so often in sw development: cut the problem into parts that can progress independently (here: the actual status pages and their content (bluetooth, wifi, …) and the quick settings widgetry.
We could have waited until everything is ready but opted to get the ready parts out to easy some workflows.
