Nice. The Swedish government moves to Open Source.... and to Nextcloud. https://nextcloud.com/blog/swedish-government-nextcloud-premier-digital-collaboration-platform/

Not on social media?

As it currently stands, the large ISPs have no incentive to make their services better. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2021/12/internet-needs-fair-rules-road-and-competitive-drivers

So far #phosh's system prompts had no way to express the input purpose as #GCR used underneath didn't yet support it, hence e.g. a SIM card pin prompt would bring up a full keyboard instead of just a keypad.

After patching #gcr, #phosh, #squeekboard and gnome-settings-deamon this is how it looks like atm:

#librem5 #linux #gnomeonmobile

Some groundwork for #gestures in #phoc paved the way to fix touch and tablet output mapping so you can e.g. use your nexdock's touch screen as well with #phosh. I also made single output mode a bit more useful/robust. MRs are posted:

Facebook's rebrand to Meta finally answers the long-standing question of whether Zuckerberg uses VI or Emacs.

Police already have too much surveillance equipment. While the fight to end this continues, the least we can do is make sure they’re not getting more from the military. @RepPressley's amendment, co-sponsored by @AoC, will do just that. #stop1033

Two things around the corner for less flicker during boot in #phosh and #phoc (https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phosh/-/merge_requests/890, https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phoc/-/merge_requests/265)

Kudos to @francois for the #plymouth theme, @dos for plymouth crash fixing and @craftyguy for osk-sdl

In today's work environments, there is this illusion and pressure that you have to constantly perform on the very highest level at least eight hours a day. This is hurting so many people, up to the point where good folks drop out of their jobs due to burn-out and depression. So, it's important to recognize that we are all human after all and that the performance we are capable of is not constant. What we can deliver at work is depending on so many factors and many of them are actually outside of our control. We just have to accept that.

Help us ban federal use of invasive and harmful face surveillance. Tell your members of congress to co-sponsor the Facial Recognition and Biometric Technology Moratorium Act. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2020/06/now-time-tell-congress-ban-federal-use-face-recognition

We are upstreaming our software development for the wider community. Calls will become a part of the @gnome project. Having a dialer application available shows that mobile is an important use case for GNOME. Read more: https://puri.sm/posts/how-calls-became-a-part-of-gnome/

The Facial Recognition and Biometric Technology Moratorium Act bans federal use of face surveillance and withholds some federal tax dollars from paying for it at the state and local level. Tell your elected officials now to co-sponsor this bill! https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2020/06/now-time-tell-congress-ban-federal-use-face-recognition

The Supreme Court finally trimmed back the reach of the CFAA in ways that should help protect researchers, innovators and people who check sports scores at work. There's more to be done, but this is a good step and we're celebrating. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2021/06/van-buren-victory-against-overbroad-interpretations-cfaa-protects-security
