Finally got around to migrating my website off of Cloudflare’s hosting. Now does anyone know of any non-evil registrars?

While still very much untested, the #SailfishOS app is published here:

I'm very happy for anyone to try. But expect issues and fequent updates at this point.

Do you have a fingerprint reader? In GNOME 51 we improved the user interface for managing fingerprints, and now adding, removing or even storing multiple different fingerprints is easier than ever.

Note: this feature isn't limited to smartphones!

LineageOS 24, based on Android 17, released

LineageOS has released its first version based on Android 17 - earlier than expected.

We’ve been hard at work rebasing all of our changes and features since Android 17’s release in June. Android 17’s first release mainly contained iterative improvements and some UI/UX refinements, but due to our previous efforts adapting to Google’s heavy refactor

❗️Kaja Kallas says EU foreign ministers intend to approve on Monday the largest set of sanctions listings targeting Russia’s war machine since the war began. She criticized the suspension of sanctions on Russian diesel, saying it gives Moscow more revenue to wage war. #Russia

I optimized Bazaar's cold startup time to 320 ms (from launch to first frame) on my laptop, so I was able to remove the short but stuttery loading screen.

For comparison, GNOME Settings takes about 300 ms to load under the same conditions.

Most of the savings came from running more tasks in parallel and lazy-loading some widgets.

today i set out to finally have a day off, and then i ended up wanted to look at a PDF, and spent 5 hours in hyperfocus to get papers and evince working on my qcs8550 system. this required fixing a bug in mesa that caused a SIGILL because of disabled SVE on this Cortex-x3, and then another hour of stracing to realize that frigging "apparmor" was preventing these apps from loading GL/vulkan libs from /usr/local/lib

Milestone 2: a new backend compiler, written in #rust 🦀

SSA from the start, works on lowered I/O, supports geometry shaders, and it's one compiler for graphics and OpenCL through rusticl - the door to compute workloads etnaviv couldn't run before.

It's not merged yet: GLES 3.0 got priority. Upstreaming it is next.

So true. Free your mind, walk away from them...go back to a real world with no AI digital twins of ourselves, trained on our historical data, metadatas, behavioral/biometrics that would be ready to take over our lifes and our democracies. No more info for them.

The most common sources of errors for me when working on the command line:

- some typo
- wrong syntax
- ....

- typing "uninstall" instead of "remove" when uninstalling some package

Every. single. time.

If there’s an "install" option, why isn’t there an "uninstall" option? At least make it an alias for "remove", I’m begging you.

i've been struggling a lot to make USB-C DisplayPort alt-mode work on the RK3588 MNT Pocket Reform with MB2.0, incl. charging and USB hub functions of the monitor, all over a single cable. this included partially reverse-engineering and implementing the vendor defined messages (VDM) for activating these modes in system controller firmware, and patching RK3588 drivers. it's not yet 100% reliable, but when it works, it's quite nice
