Gardiner from The Linux Gamer covers our Librem 5 shipping announcement with comments from our CEO and CMO youtube.com/watch?v=So_rCYArL3 Thank you for your excitement and support puri.sm/posts/librem-5-shippin

Open source is often praised for producing versatile software, but here's something I haven't seen mentioned ANYWHERE:

Open source is the most accessible source of education for real world software engineering. It provides easy access to code that gets shipped to production and solves real world problems.

Without open source, learning how kernels or web browsers actually work would require a degree, a fat resume, good luck in the job market, and also whatever else corporations decide.

It's been a rainy few days. The sound of rain hitting the window pane gets on my nerves. Yeah I know I'm weird coz most people seem to enjoy that. Smell of rain? Bleah. And what's so romantic about walking in the rain all sticky and wet? Maybe my senses are all screwed up. But luckily I have my dependable noise cancelling headphones.

Very excited that @purism has managed to keep their promise of a Q3 ship date. This is one small step for smart phones, and one giant leap for free and open source software!

Forbes’ Linux Laptop Buyer's Guide 2019 “If you want to embrace a company that is decidedly privacy-conscious and strictly embraces open source software, Purism's Librem 13 and Librem 15 laptops are worth considering. They feature hardware kill switches for webcam, Wireless and microphone.” forbes.com/sites/jasonevangelh

Over the coming weeks leading up to the launch we will be sharing some special stories and photos to get everyone even more excited ;)

Let’s begin inside, here’s the first public photo of the final Librem 5 PCB featured in our CTO’s recent talk at puri.sm/posts/purism-cto-prese
