Soll ich euch mal etwas sagen,... 🤫

Wenn meine Kinder jetzt mit einem Smartphone spielen, dass ist es ein Debian! 🥳 🥳

Ich habe 2048 installiert.

Die sind mit phosh auch sofort zurecht gekommen.

And here's what we could do for copy. Put that into an extra MR for now so we can check whether it's predictive enough for the user what is being copied (while the paste bits from above can already land for 0.42).

Note that this is orthogonal to what an app/UI toolkit offers for copy/paste (via context menus or drag handles) already.

Copy / paste can be fiddly on mobile. I opened an MR today to make the paste part a bit easier in phosh-osk-stub (another old branch finally cleaned up into a (hopefully) mergeable state):

Good news everyone! Geoclue 2.7.2 is out.
Now for the bad news: Although alternatives exist, the shutdown of Mozilla Location Services (#MLS) basically crippled #Geoclue for devices without a GPS.
Help is on the way though, code for a GeoIP location source is being developed, and it should make it easy to add different providers. Please see the MR here:
gitlab.freedesktop.org/geoclue
Testing, comments, patches and suggestions for GeoIP providers are welcome!

I hate to post this here, but I'm looking for an apartment for two in Berlin. If anyone knows of anything going I would really really appreciate it.

One thing that bugged me is that we had no way in to present only the available OSK layouts to the user to pick from. This led to confusion as users configured a layout which then would not be available later on. phosh-osk-stub can now provide that information to mobile settings (and it will be simple to add support for e.g. squeekboard if it dumps out the relevant information).

Thanks to and 's list models such things are fun to add.

For #Erlang folks, Rebar3 just got version 3.24.0 released, which has some bug fixes, a bunch of internal maintenance, and also turns on rich compiler error messages by default: github.com/erlang/rebar3/relea

llibphosh-rs 0.0.2 is up at crates.io/crates/libphosh . Thanks to @me for making it compatible with 0.41 .

This is hopefully the first release 🐸 can use out of the box.

@agx @suraj_sloth for the lazy, this link with timestamp that takes you directly to Phosh talk :) - youtube.com/watch?v=dDZJ1d-n2x

(We also have Rudra there)
