Hello. I didn't sleep. But: cats.
BREAKING: We have a guest who appears to be into staring contests. Awaiting results

The new version of Millipixels, now in crimson-updates-proposed, significantly improves the way photos are developed by default. No need to develop the RAWs on your own to get rid of that greenish retro look anymore. Time to update and show off your cats on the fedi 😺

Remember the Linux VM thing that Android dev tools now have? The tech behind it is the peak of using remote attestation to prevent you from controlling or inspecting what runs on your device. And another feature that apps will use to refuse to work on rooted devices.
You can only run kernel images signed by Google or an approved OEM with the virtualization API (enforced at the guest firmware level which is signed and verified by the host OS).
Google lists a use case as running a malware classifier on your device while preventing you from reverse engineering the algorithm. They list other vendors use cases as running some vague client risk assessment models.
Remember the proposed laws about enforcing client side scanning of all sent messages? This is the perfect plumbing for that.
We are losing the war on generalized computing.

Last but not least, last kernel update is also lowering the FPS you can get in various modes - from 120/60/60/20/15 to 83.3/40/30/20/8. Why?
It was the easiest way to reduce the MIPI CSI-2 clock freq, which turns out to effectively resolve the issue of camera locking up until a reboot under DRAM load due to ERR050384 erratum! The driver could be made to configure the clocks dynamically to unlock the full FPS range again, but that's left for later.
Kernels are hard to show, so have more cats 😸
The way it does video recording is still... uhm, not great 🤪 so it's only usable for short clips, but it also benefits from the processing improvements, so these short clips should at least look prettier now. Audio should be a bit less desynced now too.
If you want to record for as long as your storage lets you to with perfect audio sync, check out the video recorder at https://source.puri.sm/-/snippets/1223
Millipixels has really overstayed its welcome, it was meant to be a temporary pile of hacks to facilitate driver development, but - perhaps inevitably, as makeshift does - it stayed there much longer than anticipated. I have spent a few hours polishing some of its roughest edges, finishing up past WIP work and hacking some desperately needed quality-of-life improvements in.
Along with e.g. rotation sensing and better QR code detection, it can now also adjust frame rate to extend exposure time.
Here's a few cat-less examples too for some variety.
The processing is still pretty basic, you can easily get better results out of Darktable etc. but it should nevertheless be a big improvement for what you get by a simple point-and-shoot.
Here's a before-and-after example. There's much more (done with an early version of this code) in my old thread: https://social.librem.one/@dos/115091388610379313

Muscari (Grape Hyacinth) 🌱 is my favorite flower ❤️ It used to grow in my great grandma's wild garden back when I was small and it had an abundance of fruits and veggies. Then an evil landscape architect came (I know it because I was trained to be one) and planted a bunch of easy to maintain but exotic bushes and trees, that look nice and tidy but there is almost no life there... maybe except for hedgehogs and cats 😊
This one-off painting is still available in my shop!

Omg I found a perfect thing today while checking my cat’s glucose levels xD
Isn’t that a perfect hat for a train conductor??
All we need now is a train :D and one more hat to make it the sweetest team of conductors, no?

@neil I honestly believe that having majority of the population run platforms that allow application developers to attest the environment their applications run in is the single biggest threat to Free Software that's ever been there. It needs to be viciously opposed.
