@opensourceopenmind @janvlug I hope that PipeWire will let us sort this out better. PulseAudio was very stubborn at considering the maximum available hardware amplification as 100% instead of 0dB, so I had to restrict it from using the whole range to keep it sane :(

@opensourceopenmind @janvlug You may want to adjust Speaker Boost ALSA control rather than use software amplification that causes clipping. This is shared with the earpiece, be careful not to blast it at full volume when you have it near your ear.

@f_underscore I have no crystal ball to look into, but Crimson has been exceptionally unlucky in this regard, with multiple mutually unrelated reasons for its delays. For Dawn, the "only" thing left is to actually polish the distro itself.

@janvlug There are several ways to get there, but pressing the Escape key is probably the simplest one 😀

Now moving onto the trixie-based PureOS 12 "dawn", which should become usable by early adopters in the coming months 🎉

Thank you for your support and patience on the way there 🤗

While it's still not exactly on the bleeding edge, it's a significant step forward. Lots of infrastructural blockers that prevented further development have been resolved in the process, and even though the base isn't very fresh, there's quite a bit of fresh work included too. I'd say the end result may even be more polished in some areas than in other up-to-date distros now (with a strong accent on "some areas", obviously, as they're clearly ahead in some others!)

Better late than never: PureOS 11 (crimson) is finally out, catching up with Debian 12 (bookworm) just in time for when bullseye/byzantium lose their extended security support next month. If you're still on byzantium, update ASAP! It's a solid improvement over both byzantium and plain bookworm. 🧵

PureOS Crimson is now available!! This release improves the foundation of PureOS throughout the entire operating system. Users will find it significantly more responsive with improved stability and reliability.

We encourage all PureOS Byzantium users to upgrade today! You can even try out our new pureos-upgrade tool for a seamless experience:

Thank you all for your patience and support!

@lukem @pecet @stfn Byłem niedawno w Świeciu i trochę się z Warszawy jednak jechało

For a long time I've been intrigued by #Epiphany taking 5 to 20 seconds to load any website on startup or in Incognito Mode, and started profiling and testing a bunch of configurations to report a bug.

It turned out to be 2 bugs in 1 :blobsweats:

* The adblocker (and similar features) makes things slower :psyduck: : gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphan

* WebKitGTK is doing some shenanigans with the system's fonts: bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?i

@oaj Słuchanie prelekcji bez możliwości dowiedzenia się czegoś nowego to na ogół strata czasu, ale cała reszta wpływa na skuteczność przekazywania wiedzy.

@szkolabezoplat mObywatel jest nie tylko zamknięty, ale do tego działa wyłącznie na dwóch wybranych platformach. Jeśli ma być jedną z wielu dostępnych metod uwierzytelniania to ok, ale jako jedyna byłaby kompletnie nieakceptowalna.

I think every one of the last dozen photoshops I’ve done has had some knob or another reply with “AI SLOP!!”.

Look. Skill issue. You may not be able to hallucinate absolute dorkarse nonsense by yourself, but some of us can.

@aho Oh definitely. The second one only does basic processing and is even missing some lens corrections.

It's definitely sharper though, the first one happened to focus almost but not quite there; I think the way Mastodon scales photos down makes it less pronounced.

@nina_kali_nina What I learned from my work on phone camera drivers after several debugging sessions is that this is the moment when you need to wipe off the camera lens.

@oausi @postmarketOS They should - if they don't it means you've stagnated - and they will, so you design processes to handle them well. Which seem to have worked fine in this case, as the issue was contained to a version that's explicitly unstable, right?

@piwo @FOSSGralnia A będzie grańsko po wykładach tak jak kiedyś, czy znowu tylko w trakcie? 🥺
