If only there was something a company's employees could do together, in the face of incompetent leadership, to improve their situation.

Stoke technician welds internal tank stiffening, reinforcing the area around the Stage 1 fuel tank's human-access door.

We use handheld laser fillet welding due to the high deposition rate, which also has the structural advantage of inputting less heat to prevent warping and preserve strength.

@protonprivacy protonmail-bridge is broken on the server side for 2 weeks now, also confirmed by a friend.

I don’t like having to resort to take this public, but as a paying customer and since this is a feature exclusive to paid plans, unacceptable is an understatement…

EU needs to take a stand on Play Integrity. If app devs enforce Play Integrity, this means only Google Certified devices can use banking, etc. This excludes all alternative mobile OS. No #postmarketOS, no #SailfishOS, no Android derivatives #GrapheneOS etc. You don't need Play Integrity. If someone is capable to install or use alternative OS, they sure know what to install or not install, it is on their responsibility. Using non-root but bootloader unlocked device (otherwise can't use alternative OS) does not make my device less secure. On the contrary, it is using an up to date OS with the latest security patches. Do we really want all mobile devices have to be Google Certified? No. #mobile #integrity #bootloader #unlocked #nonsense #Europe

Ja, wenn Microsoft, Paypal und Mastercard Mitglieder des Internationalen Strafgerichtshof von ihren Diensten ausschließen ist alles ne Randbemerkung, aber wenn auf einmal das nächste 3% bessere AI Modell eingeschränkt wird, schreiben alle von einem „Weckruf für Europa“.

#vulkan coming to a #halium phone near you! Looks like the #FuriLabs and #UbuntuTouch folks have been hard at work getting vulkan to a usable state.

This opens up all the #wayland vulkan applications that seem to have problems related to GLES.

Should be enabled soon:tm: to the general audience, do note it only works with wayland and not x11.

Here's a short video of the #FLX1 running vkcube and godot benchmarks all running in vulkan!

Little project I've been working on for the past two days. A reverse engineered implementation of the Android Auto server, running on my OnePlus 6 with PostmarketOS. The implementation is incredibly basic, only has basic video, but it's enough to display Sway and firefox :D

Next major step is getting it to work on a "proper" headunit. It works with my generic Chinese portable Android Auto / CarPlay screen but on a proper Toyota headunit inside a 2019 Toyota Aygo it fails somewhere along the way on the authentication chain.

California's Age Verification Law May End Up Exempting Most Linux Distributions

While not as good as repealing AB 1043 outright for requiring operating system providers to ask for a user's age or birth date at device setup, open-source Linux distributions and other open-source OSes may end up seeing some reprieve before this law goes into effect at the start of 2027...

In the meantime in the land of "free speech" that accuses the EU of censorship:

This photo from Flight 12 goes soooo hard!!!!!

Better late than never: PureOS 11 (crimson) is finally out, catching up with Debian 12 (bookworm) just in time for when bullseye/byzantium lose their extended security support next month. If you're still on byzantium, update ASAP! It's a solid improvement over both byzantium and plain bookworm. 🧵
