It is one of those subtle ironies of history that Trump is about to fall over a Chinese virus named after a Mexican beer.

I was able to install @micahflee 's dangerzone package on my #Librem5 and w/ some QT tweaks the main screen fits (other screens need more work). It uses an amd64 Docker image so I need an arm64 image to actually clean docs, but it was nice that I got as far as I did without much effort.

Fascinating take on the race now, from an unexpected source. https://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/200309104241632.html

Unless you're running WIndows servers or Active Directory, if you're paying for MSFT Azure, you're paying too much. Like 10 times too much. You'll get better service from any number of commodity hosters.

If you *are* running Windows servers or AD, you're working for an organisation with inferior, inefficient, inflexible, inscrutable, overpriced IT systems that you cannot really control. Sucks when orgs pay heaps to gift a total monopoly to a 3rd party whose only goal is maximum profit.

Der @sixtus@twitter.com bringt es auf den Punkt. Der Begriff des politischen Liberalisms muss neu definiert wird. In Deutschland betrachtet man vor allem Konservative mit wirtschaftsliberaler Haltung als liberal.

I really wanted to skip through songs easily on my #librem5 when carrying it around, so i hacked up a simplistic media player widget for #phosh using the #mpris protocol (wip code, don't try this at home yet)

every time have to touch this god damn code

It looks like the latest #Librem5 kernel update reduced active power consumption by another 100-140mA based on my own measurements. I hear there are a lot more improvements in the pipeline once we switch from 5.3 to the 5.6 kernel.

Wow, that was quick: Thanks to Lucas Stach our #etnaviv runtime power managemt fix already landed in linux-next: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/log/?qt=range&q=ea4ed4a55f7363ad8db1863bd536548fb7e5c6aa..78f2bfa3181cd7ee134274aa17177dd933c69dc1

The fix hits the #librem5 with the next kernel update.

Facebook just dropped an Engineering Whitepaper on how they made the new version of their iOS app faster and more reliable and it basically boils down to "Use native OS API calls whenever possible"

It's a 20+ paragraph screed that reads like a technical manual, and that's all it really says. "Maybe electron is bad and we should use native calls?". They called it "Project Lightspeed".

I'm screaming.

Turns out I've been "practicing social distancing" for years without even realizing it was a thing!

@wolf480pl You're gonna hate this, but you loop the last octet.

10.255 = 10.0.0.255
10.256 = 10.0.1.0

So the answer to your question is 10.258
