Thanks to the bits and pieces collected by @isyourbrainFOSS we can now support the alert slider on the #Onplus6/6T to toggle #feedbackd's full/quiet/silent profiles.

#Linux OpenPrinting #CUPS vulnerabilities
Use the following command to determine if cups-browsed is running:
$ sudo systemctl status cups-browsed
If the result includes "Active: inactive (dead)" then the exploit chain is halted and the system is not vulnerable
If the result is "running" or "enabled" then the system may be vulnerable.
Mitigation is simple, especially in any environment where printing is not needed.
$ sudo systemctl stop cups-browsed
$ sudo systemctl disable cups-browsed

For those running #postmarketos edge on a device with working camera - the number of which is raising fast enough to make me lose track - and you want to play around with the great new #gnomecamera / #gnomesnapshot #gnome47 release: you'll need to install gst-plugins-rs manually until some build issues are fixed.
The release features *heavily* improved rendering performance, mainly thanks to improvements in #gtk4 and the #gstreamer gtk4paintablesink (also for apps using the aperture library)

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (38/2024): #GNOME 47 and updates on #Plasma Apps
https://linmob.net/weekly-update-38-2024/
#LinuxMobile #postmarketOS #SailfishOS #UbuntuTouch #PinePhone #Librem5 #Mobian #Phosh
I wanted to rent some CPU power from Hetzner to calc better text prediction data for #LinuxMobile.
Created account via VPN so they wanted additional ID information which I sent with passport number removed. Resulting in:
"""

I can't recommend this service.

Did you know that you can call #Emacs functions in #vterm like you can do in Eshell?
Using vterm-eval-cmds you can either commands that don't exist in a shell or replace those that exist.
E.g. instead of man you can call the Emacs manapge mode.
You just have to print something to the terminal with the right escape sequence so vterm receives
the right control sequence to know what to call.
Look at my config for more examples:

More info on GtkInspector in #gnome's developer documentation: https://developer.gnome.org/documentation/tools/inspector.html and here's how to use it in a nested phosh session: https://phosh.mobi/posts/phosh-dev-part-0/
Another small detail: I often need to scroll up in #chatty to reread something when composing a msg. Going back to the last msg of the conversation by taping the 🔵 would close the ⌨️ forcing me touch into the text area again (and causing visual distraction). We can fix this by having the 🔵 not take focus.
Posting this to demo it can be a one line change in a UI file to make #LinuxMobile work better. So please get involved! #Gtk 's GtkInspector is great to figure such things out.

GNOME 47 is here! After months of hard work from contributors worldwide, this release brings many exciting updates and improvements. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgcVp5RHy4Q
Find more details about what's new in #GNOME47 in the release notes: https://release.gnome.org/47/
It's the small things: If you've been bothered with #calls and #chatty seemingly starting up slowly in #phosh (while most other apps startup fast): I've posted MRs to fix this in chatty and calls (which then also prompted a small fix in phosh). Here's a quick demo of calls before and after the change:

Introducing Casilda - A Wayland compositor widget!
A simple Wayland compositor widget for Gtk 4 which can be used to embed other processes windows in your Gtk 4 application.
It was originally created for Cambalache's workspace using wlroots, a modular library to create Wayland compositors.
Following Wayland tradition, this library is named after my hometown in Santa Fe, Argentina
Read more about it at https://blogs.gnome.org/xjuan/2024/09/13/introducing-casilda-wayland-compositor-widget/
Today was "Bundesweiter Warntag" in Germany so a good point in time to test #ModemManager's & #phosh's upcoming #cellbroadcast support 🚨 .
The sounds emitted by #feedbackd are only stubs (and you don' t hear the haptic in the video but I promise it's there 😃).
There's three messages because the CBMs are sent out on three different channels.
Thanks @NGIZero for supporting my work on this!
