We promised to publish the hardware schematics when the #Librem5 shipped and we delivered: Hardware Schematics and X-ray Scans for Librem 5 Birch https://puri.sm/posts/a-different-kind-of-transparency/ #OpenHardware #Linux

It was an exciting week for the #Pursim team, shipping Librem 5s from the Birch batch to backers https://puri.sm/posts/librem-5-birch-shipping-announcement/ and reading your early impressions.

Your support and energy keeps us going!

Thank you for believing in the Librem 5 and our mission https://puri.sm/about/ #privacy #security #Librem5 #Linux

I love this post:

"When we first approached hardware manufacturers almost two years ago with this project most of them instantly said “No, sorry, impossible, we can not help you.”. Others warned us, that it could never work, that it was too complicated, “the industry does not do that” and so forth.

And yet here we are, later than we wanted, but we are actually shipping first hardware! It is possible but it comes at a price." #Librem5

This aged well.

There's a petition to Save the .org top level domain. Apparently, ICANN could still stop it from being sold.

I know, petitions rarely work, but I also know that _sometimes_ they do.
Please consider signing if you _run_ anything there, or if you _use_ or _care about_ anything that's on a .org domain. Also, boosting this to others who follow you, would be very much appreciated.

Liebe #Medien,

wenn ihr über die Gefahren durch vermutete Hintertüren in #Huawei-Produkten berichtet, dann erwähnt doch auch mal, was seit @Snowden eigentlich bekannt sein sollte: Dass in Konkurrenzprodukten z.B. von #Cisco und #Juniper bereits Hintertüren gefunden wurden.

Es gibt sogar ein Kartenspiel mit Beispielen für Implantate: https://shop.digitalcourage.de/nsa-quartett.html

Die Rheinische Post zeigt die Absurdität eines Mindestabstands von 1000 Metern bei Windrädern. Bei Steinbrüchen mit Sprengungen sind es 300 Meter. Sind Windräder lauter und gefährlicher?

Much of what’s being sold as "AI" today is snake oil. It does not and cannot work. In a talk at MIT yesterday, I described why this happening, how we can recognize flawed AI claims, and push back. Here are my annotated slides: https://www.cs.princeton.edu/~arvindn/talks/MIT-STS-AI-snakeoil.pdf

You can now watch my talk on the future of Internet regulation at the European Parliament yesterday on Peertube (@joinpeertube) thanks to @vincib

And here are my slides (which were on the screens but aren’t visible in the video):

After my talk at the European Parliament today, I asked a question at the end of the second panel (03:35:47) and a corporate lobbyist attempted to tone police me (03:44:50). This was my response (03:45:06). If I’d been any younger he’d have heard “OK Boomer” :)

phosh 0.1.3 is out https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/tags/v0.1.3

Most notable change is that favorites are now editable via long press (contributed by Zander Brown). Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release.

@deshipu For me, it's not that I'm technophobic but that I don't get pulled by in as much by the tech industry's marketting or "hype". I understand technology, leading me to know how empty (or worse dangerous) most of that is and how much better computers can trivially be if everyone wasn't chasing lock-in.

Unfortunately saying that technology has to serve an actual purpose can look like technophobia.
