I finally did the remaining to part to import paired bluetooth keyboards/mouse/trackpads (at least the Apple ones) automatically for #asahilinux
This means they are useable on the first boot after installation without pairing. For dual boot systems they will connect automatically in macOS and linux without constant repairing manually exporting and importing link keys.

China successfully compromised for months the infrastructure used to do wiretaps on the AT&T and Verizon networks.

This is a huge "told you so" moment for the cryptographic community that has been saying that such infrastructure does present a huge risk to national security. China reportedly used this capability for intelligence collection, obviously without a warrant ...

The #Librem5 can run #egui :)

i have an intense obsession with a number of old computer games that could have been super awesome but weren't (for example: amazing graphics/environments/sound/world but botched or tiresome mechanics, unfinished/rushed release (stuff in screenshots is not in the game, items are useless...), bad writing etc).
