Judge Aileen Cannon Failed to Disclose a Right-Wing Junket
—

Cannon, whose oversight of the Donald Trump classified documents case has garnered widespread criticism, has repeatedly violated a rule requiring that federal judges disclose their attendance at private seminars.

Copy / paste can be fiddly on mobile. I opened an MR today to make the paste part a bit easier in phosh-osk-stub (another old branch finally cleaned up into a (hopefully) mergeable state):

Great news from @rainemak / @jolla on #Jolla Community Phone 2 deliveries: They're currently aiming for end of September for flashing the C2s with their partner and starting deliveries of the phone the following week! Looking forward to getting one in my hands and taking a look at the latest developments of #SailfishOS.

Yay! XWayland fractional scaling that @jadahl and I worked on landed in mutter yesterday and will make it into #GNOME 47 🤩

Also big shout-out to the GNOME STF project for funding my work on all this!

Here's postprocessd from #megapixels applying lens distortion and vignetting correction (the wrong values to make it more visible when testing)

This should help a lot with image quality

Holy cow, #Transitous-based #publictransit routing has just landed in the nightly version of #GNOMEMaps, and therefore the number of cities you can get transit directions in… has gone waaaay up! It can even route through a mess like Los Angeles' multiple transit authorities

Big props to @mlundblad for implementing this: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-maps/-/merge_requests/440

Lol I'm getting "Element does not support this browser" in element desktop

#Wayland #inputmethod team GO!

I assembled a team to continue work I started for #mobilelinux with #phosh , #squeekboard and #librem5 .

We're going to finish the mobile side of screen-based input, and also try to properly bring traditional input methods (like for Chinese) to Wayland.

Thanks @nlnet for providing the motivation.

Watch this account!

#COSMIC and #smithay can indeed work well with #Squeekboard :)

My patch fixes the focus problem, and now events go all like they should.

Let's see what the upstream thinks about this.

Thanks @nlnet @NGIZero for motivating me to do this work :)

Trump's own social media company Truth Social had one gimmick. Trump was there, not on Twitter.

It floated and quickly became a meme stock. At one stage his supporters were paying up to $60 per share to support their fuhrer.

Now that things have heated up in the election, Trump has rejoined Twitter for the reach.

Shares are now at $22.70.

I want to play my tiny violin but cannot find it because it is so tiiinnyy.

Two years after leaving Twitter, this account has finally overtaken the amount of people who followed us there 🎉

The #Fediverse still feels like a place to discuss with talented people, and it replaced the feeling of doomscrolling with that of being in a real, vibrant community. Thank you all.
