Scams, cults, and kernels.

Join me in looking back on my adventures in mobile Linux leading up to the Librem 5

why do people do this??? do you get whipped on your back for every issue open on your repo when working at Microsoft or what

@linmob @s31bz @bradlinder Yeah, the #librem5 is the one phone that most mobian developers currently recommend and use. Both purism and mobian devs are quite active with migrating things into @debian proper. We are aware of the price tag, but would like to reiterate that this actually includes salaries for mobile Linux developers.

I finally got a #librem5 phone not so expensive on #leboncoin (470€)
I tested #PureoOS yesterday and now i test #postmarketos installed in 128Go sdcard.
Tomorrow, i will try #mobian
I am verry happy to found this smartphone

@purism YO! I did a long command and my screen fell asleep and it gave me a notification my nmap command finished running this is SICK! Really loving this Purism Librem 5. Neither #android nor #ios just pure #linux #opensource

Doing my initial tinkering of the @purism Librem 5 phone and WOW. I am impressed it’s truly full #Linux I just installed @element using apt out the box. Their official instructions! Taking the phone apart as well and thoroughly impressed

I'm sure there's a tendency to always view the past as better, but the social-media-ification of the Internet has really sucked a lot of the joy out of entertaining people. When it was peripheral to the broader Internet, you spent most of your time making stuff. Now you gotta learn 8 to 12 platforms that mostly want you to act like an employee of their algorithm.

I've been rewriting my script, and decided to make a series of shorts instead one longer film. The first film will tackle more serious stuff. Keep fingers crossed that it gets funded, or you can always support me through ko-fi.

Here are some new mockups I made for the storyboard.

Hope your day goes well, I am resting today ❤️

@junocomputers
You get a completely free operating system, please support us in developing it with detailed
reports rather than pushing end user support upstream.

At the very minimum check with the communities upfront how to best interact and supply them with hardware.

Dear @junocomputers if you sell computers and use Free Software Operating systems it is not o.k. to assume you can free ride on community support.

It makes me sad to have mails from users in my inbox that are stuck with an unusable device on a Sunday and are seeking help to get it going again. This is your job.

Please listen to your customer's issue. If it's a software issue in the latest upstream version forward it with a good description.

Thanks to everyone for a great reboot of All Systems Go!
We can't share all the great discussions in the hallway track but we can share all the talks here: https://media.ccc.de/c/asg2023

Many thanks to the @c3voc team and especially @danimo for streaming the conference an releasing the talks before we could even leave the venue.

The thing is, people's mental health doesn't go away by making everything expensive and more difficult to access. The drug abusers who don't have ADHD and just want to stay up all night aren't by-and-large the ones going through these processes. Their dealers are more readily available and ask fewer questions, and more likely, they move on to far more addictive substances (meth, etc). The expense and red tape in our system serve as a lock to keep honest people out.
