That's how straight lines look like through your phone's camera lens. Such distortion needs to be corrected in software. #shotonlibrem5

@lewiscowles1986 I guess SourceHut is as close as it gets to be a modern take on such approach, since while it's a suite of various tools for various purposes you should be able to easily mix'n'match them or deploy in parts (e.g. git.sr.ht is analogous to gitweb and only becomes a project management tool when combined with lists.sr.ht and todo.sr.ht)

@lewiscowles1986 Well, it's easy - because both Gitea and Gogs follow the GitHub's approach. They take a VCS tool and build a project management & collaboration tool around it. You already said that's not what you want ;) The approach you described used to be popular in FLOSS about 20 years ago (with projects commonly deploying single-concern tools like Bugzilla, Trac, Jenkins, gitweb, Patchwork etc.), but these days it appears to be used just by a minority of long-standing projects.

@lewiscowles1986 They don't do version control. Their primary feature is to do project management *around* version control. Their basic value propositions are based on issue tracking and contribution management. Features like CI are useful for scrappy one-dev projects and big FLOSS communities altogether, it's hardly a "corporate BS".

Again, if all you care about is version control, all you need is gitweb.

@craftyguy @cas @claudiom One of the first things I did when I started to work on Librem 5 years ago was to figure out how to easily boot a known good kernel+initrd pair over uuu, which later turned into Jumpdrive port. It's such an essential thing to have when hacking on anything! Turns the worst screwups from "oh no, not this again" into "no worries, let's get it quickly back up".

@lewiscowles1986 @postmarketOS It's good that neither of them is about doing version control then. Gitweb is super easy to set up ;)

@lewiscowles1986 @postmarketOS GitLab used to be incredibly powerful compared to GitHub, as GitHub stayed rather barebones for a good while. Today you don't see it like that because over years GitHub has caught up with most of the things that made GitLab unique.

@mcc @jernej__s MariaDB happened at the beginning of Obama's administration, so it sounds like you may have decided to stay with MySQL afterwards. Pretty much the entire community moved over to MariaDB more than a decade ago already, so no wonder the channel is dead.

For those interested, a few more photos can be found on Michael Lauer's blog: https://www.vanille.de/blog/openmoko-10-years-after-mickeys-story/

Randomly stumbled upon Sean Moss-Pultz's short post about Openmoko, featuring some photos of a working prototype of GTA03/3D7K, the cancelled successor to the Neo Freerunner that was being worked on around 2009. So far I have only heard verbal descriptions of how it looked like (usually described as "a soap dish" 😂) and seen photos of some casing mock-ups and bare PCBs, but never a complete device.

@wiktor The most important thing is: how long will the Q&A session be? 😂

@anjune Just run it in Gamescope.

@0xabad1dea @timonsku That's because no version of USB before C was commonly used to replace power bricks where such warnings were common for ages.

@glassbottommeg Definitely the latter, I'd say.
