Let's not forget to also mention @purism and the #librem5 phone.

Quoting from https://blog.mobian-project.org/posts/2021/02/18/what_is_mobian/ : "We would not be where we are without the Debian ecosystem or Purism and their pioneering efforts to make Linux usable on phones."

Jag har fått mejl-svar från föreningen (DFRI) i alla fall, men jag vet inte om de har någon rutin för att svara nya medlemmar.

Ett tips är att de har öppet styrelsemöte nu i kväll, du kan mejla och anmäla dig och själv vara med på mötet om du vill och kan. Jag har tänkt försöka vara med för att prata om BankID-frågan: https://www.dfri.se/styrelsemote-18-augusti-2021/

Du kan också pröva att ta kontakt via mejllistan eller IRC, se https://www.dfri.se/kontakt/

@silverhax Congrats!

Yes, probably they are lazy, combined with not understanding that there is any problem.

Laziness and ignorance hand in hand, together forming a powerful force leading us all to a not-so-bright future. 😕

@staticvoidmaine @mntmn

I am not @purism staff, just someone who managed to buy a couple of Librem 5 units second hand. Still waiting for my original orders to ship, for both Librem 5 and MNT reform.

The situation is similar in both cases, perhaps for similar reasons. They are selling a new thing without knowing how long it will take to deliver, giving optimistic estimates of when it will ship.

I can understand why they do it, but I think both underestimate the trust problem they get.

@mntmn Great! Approaching my order soon? (ordered Oct 2020)

@ruffni@mstdn.io

> is IPv6 here yet?

Sadly, no.

But if you give it a try and report problems to those places where things don't work, you would be doing a good thing. Those of us who still run servers that can only be accessed using IPv4 should fix that.

> Jag visste faktiskt inte ens att DFRI existerade.

Jag upptäckte det själv alldeles nyligen, det verkar vara en jättebra förening tycker jag. Fler medlemmar behövs! 🙂

Skickat nyss till DFRI-listan:

Projekt-förslag: Driv på för fri och öppen lösning för svensk e-legitimation (alternativ till BankID)

"Jag skulle vilja starta ett DFRI-projekt som handlar om hur en fri och öppen lösning för svensk e-legitimation kan bli verklighet. Här nedanför försöker jag förklara tanken med detta. Tacksam för all sorts återkoppling, särskilt om du kan tänka dig att vara med och delta i projektet. [...]"

@mntmn If I place a new order now, how soon would that ship?

@jrballesteros05 I have worked with some NAT (network address translation) solutions that are needed because of the lack of IPV4 addresses. I can tell you that it is a terrible mess, the proper solution would be to move to a system with enough addresses available, such as IPV6.

I think that brokep may have a point: the current situation benefits those who own lots of IPV4 addresses, it is not in their interest to change this.

For the public good, moving more to IPV6 would be a good thing.

This is interesting, about #Bitcoin and #China and so on:

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jul/09/currency-and-control-why-china-wants-to-undermine-bitcoin

"The threat of an unregulated alternative monetary system emerging from blockchain technology is a clear and present danger to the Communist party, according to observers."

"Jim Cramer, a former hedge fund manager and CNN business expert, said the government in Beijing “believe it’s a direct threat to the regime because … it is outside their control”."
