Here is my new @purism #Librem5

Nothing really substantial, but two of my new repositories are GPL now and I like it as my new default instead of MIT.

I laughed at FOSS before, but somehow, OSS not being enough for companies anymore pushes me towards OSS also not being enough for me.

While they migrate away to source-available proprietary software, I feel like I want to achieve the exact opposite with my work - to ensure that it helps to build the commons.

First known symbolic gesture observed in birds; scientists recorded the Japanese tit using repetitive wing movements to signal "after you" to others.

Do you have an old #PinePhone lying in the cupboard?

Dev versions of #ModemManager now support #GPS without a SIM card. Consumers of the MM API need some changes for this, so I submitted pull requests to #Geoclue (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/geoclue/geoclue/-/merge_requests/173), gnss-share (https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/gnss-share/-/merge_requests/15), and my own simple #GNSS app Satellite (https://codeberg.org/tpikonen/satellite/releases) (all 3 in different languages).

Soon it will be possible to use SIMless mobile phones for things like navigation and fitness tracking.

alright it took the better part of my weekend but I finally back-ported Mastodon to iOS 4

At 2:33 am today I fixed the last bug in EGL transparency for X11 code. This means #Firefox and #GTK will be able to use it and stop calling GLX to figure out transparent visuals.
More than 4 years after the first attempt was made.
Approx. 1 year after we (Erico, @rmader , and I) started digging into it. Good night!

While we try to find a suitable place for the clock in phosh's top bar when notches are present (since 0.29.0) we didn't take rounded corners into account as most of the time the left and right padding would be enough.

With more devices like the #fairphone5 and #xiaomi daisy showing up as being used with #phosh we need to care about that too:

Trump has less than a week to arrange a $454 million bond. There are 331.9 million US citizens. If each American spends only $1.37, then we can all buy a cheap chocolate bar to enjoy while we watch the State of New York seize Trump's properties.

Albert Einstein’s first wife Mileva (Mitza) Marić was also a brilliant physicist. They met at the Polytechnic Institute of Zurich, where she had fought for special permissions to attend and where she received higher marks than Albert. Mitza put in as much if not more work on their theories but wasn’t credited because Albert told her their works wouldn’t get published with a woman’s name on them. Many of his lecture notes are in Mitza’s handwriting, and Albert was once heard at a party saying, “I need my wife, she helps solve all of my mathematical problems.” 80% of Einstein’s famous works were published during this marriage, referred to as his “magic years.” Those magic years ended abruptly after they divorced due to his infidelity and abandonment.
