Since i got this question recently: how can i help advancing and related projects *financially* (without buying a right away)? Simplest is to get a paid librem.one subscription (librem.one/) atm.

0.3.0 is out: source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-

Notifications can be persistent now thanks to zbrown, screen blanking/locking and haptic feedback are improved as is .

@purism

@anornymorse I guess it would help, but waypipe already exists so there's no need to write another one :P gitlab.freedesktop.org/mstoeck

Several years ago, a colleague told me an old war story about how he was asked to build a database of his colleague's notes from therapy sessions, so that their employers could secretly read them. I asked if he knew it was illegal, and he said yes. I asked if he refused the work, he said no. I asked if he told the authorities, he said no. He seemed to think this was all perfectly fine.

I still think about that conversation a lot.

Thanks to work of @purism kernel team and ongoing upstreaming efforts, getting new kernels to run on the Librem 5 is a breeze! This is running the freshly released 5.7-rc1 with ~100 patches on top; some of which are already queued for 5.8.

Despite of the country being on lockdown, we keep getting guests that ain't afraid of anything - and they sure tweet more than I do.

Tip: the only people who think that the Open Source Definition does not define "open source" are saying so because they have a vested interest in marketing software which does not qualify for the title as such. Watch out for these arguments, they are gaslighting you.

Oh, and that's of course on the 2000mAh battery. The final model is going to have a 3600mAh one :)

@solarkraft Lots of various things were being tackled recently, like voltage scaling or GPU not turning off when unused. USB seems to be quite a power hog for some reason, and we still don't even suspend the CPU there.

I'm not an EE though, just a high-level software guy that likes to try all the new shiny unfinished stuff, so no idea on the details ;)

That's with the screen, modem, WiFi and USB off. Modem probably wouldn't influence it that much though.

I've collected some hacks from our kernel team and tested the idle time on battery on my Librem 5 Birch - got almost exactly 6 hours while staying at 38°C the whole time. Not that long ago it struggled to reach 3h and stay under 60°C - and they're not done yet! :D

@Mahaer_Mahmud @sir They are already storing the original files, but AFAIK only the uploader can download them back.
