How to speed up your phone for free - tested guide, it works!
1. Enable KASAN and other kinds of instrumentation while debugging your phone's kernel.
2. Notice how it makes things slower, but not slow enough to be unusable.
3. Keep using the phone this way.
4. Get used to it and forget that these things are enabled.
5. Many months later, get back to stock kernel config while doing something unrelated and enjoy your newly unlocked extra performance! ๐

Kinda disappointed with reissue's cover artwork. It's clearly vectorized, doesn't preserve some details very well, exaggerates others and colors seem all over the place. Not so perfect.
How does it sound though? Who knows! I'd need a record player to tell you that ๐ #perfect #vinyl #shotonlibrem5
Seems like nobody was reaching for this low-hanging fruit, so I did it myself:
"Glowup" is a quickly hacked up thing that lets you glow your Librem 5 photos up with one click right on the phone, using #darktable and about 30 seconds of processing.

Took me 3 days of soldering, but it works!
I can connect it to a Librem 5 and it automatically does all the needed PD stuff to expose its UART over USB-C ๐ It's also capable of a lot of other PD magic as a USB PD analyzer / injector / filter.
However, while these solder joints made a good job lasting till I got the firmware PoC working, it doesn't seem like they're going to last much longer... More soldering ahead ๐ซ

...but not impossible ๐ Being able to order a 6-layer PCB with capped vias for $2 is crazy. It even appears to work with Thunderbolt and DisplayPort, which is surprising, as I barely knew what I was doing ๐ #kicad #shotonlibrem5
Everyone's excited about pretty sun flares right now; I found one in my #shotonlibrem5 collection too, although slightly different in its nature ๐

No manual editing this time, but an automatic postprocessing script using darktable-cli and rudimentary lens corrections. Takes ~30 sec to develop on the phone - about ten times longer than the default script used by Millipixels, but with much better results. #shotonlibrem5 #librem5 #mobilelinux #linuxmobile #photography
That's how straight lines look like through your phone's camera lens. Such distortion needs to be corrected in software. #shotonlibrem5
