@goatwildernesscollective @linmob You can enable scale-to-fit feature in phoc to scale oversized windows down. It's not enabled by default so app developers don't end up relying on it, but users can always turn it on as a workaround for misbehaving apps.

@purism is hiring puri.sm/jobs/ Webdev, Technical Writer, App Devs, Firmware Devs

...and the patch is now at github.com/alsa-project/alsa-l

(in the end didn't use _FILE_OFFSET_BITS as I was afraid of breaking the ABI)

Oh, how fun! Steam Deck is using Btrfs for its root filesystem, which... breaks audio in 32-bit games. libasound can't read ALSA config because of 64-bit inodes! Turns out it needs to be fixed to work with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. In 2022! :D

I'm going to send a patch for alsa-lib when I catch some sleep. With that patch, all that's standing between Steam Deck and working audio in games like Day of the Tentacle or Full Throttle is installing `lib32-pipewire` \o/

In an interesting turn of events today, my #librem5 is being used to test why my siblings iPhones cannot make phone calls.

Sadly @purism probably can't do much to help Apple products, as they are pretty good with technical troubleshooting otherwise!

(don't worry, that's *not* how it's going to work - just having some fun with draggable layer-surface stuff by @agx :))

@tobtobxx phoc is the Wayland compositor that's usually used with phosh (which is the shell)

Hey, so this is super cool.

Google has been collecting call and messaging data about who you talk to or send text messages to for years. There's no opt-out, no notifcation in their TOS they're doing this, and you can't see the results of that collection in Google Takeout.

@mart "Extremely" may be stretching is a bit - quite a lot of them have been sent out in the past few weeks ;)

@exalm@floss.social Hah, the only thing I plan for after jabs is sleeping :D
