💡 This week would be a perfect week to #GiveUpGitHub.

☣️ #GitHub is the #Twitter of software development, creators of the most enticing proprietary walled garden ever made for #FOSS developers.

When a nazi who claimed to identify as nonbinary shot up Club Q, the right wing disinfosphere obsessed over the shooter's gender identity and ignored the fact that the shooter is a nazi who posted homage to Breivik. They became the "nonbinary mass shooter".

When a right-wing extremist who happened to be a furry was apparently inspired by Andy Ngo to carry out a mass shooting of protestors, the right-wing dubbed him the "furry mass shooter".

When nazis who happened to listen to heavy metal and dressed differently carried out the Columbine mass shooting, the media dubbed them "the trenchoat mafia" and obsessed over heavy metal, they bever never mentioned their nazi beliefs.

Elon continues his crusade to destroy twitter. Brace yourselves for another mass exodus.

With the groundwork done in 0.25 and the (upcoming) 0.26 to move power button handling from the compositor () to the shell (phosh) we'd have the bits in place to wire up a long press menu for e.g. emergency calls, screenshots, etc.

This certainly needs styling but it'd be nice to see the first bits in 0.27. I became used to it pretty quickly.

The first bits of emergency call support landed in calls 44 so that Thomas's emergency call work (gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/p) can hopefully land soon.

Tootle was archived. Tooth was a fork of it after it was archived, and now it was renamed to tuba.

I met someone else on campus who has a #librem5

I think this qualifies for the highest concentration of L5's/campus.

When consequences of a software bug solved a year ago still affect you.

And those consequences expose a another software bug in another part of the stack.

@williamtries@fosstodon.org in this section:

"Updating BroadMobi Modem" To update the modem, it is not necessary to have a more recent u-boot version.

a more recent u-boot version. As in from 2022 onward helps with the feature to enable suspend on the device.
The most recent modem firmware version also improves the process to wake up from suspend when a call is inbound.

@williamtries@fosstodon.org had a second look at this article. And, again: it is quite good.

Some extra nitpicks;

- Tooth is not packaged for debian yet, because the upstream prefers that packaging only happens after the first official release.
But you can get it from here:
github.com/kop316/Tooth/tree/w

And build the deb package, that way you have a deb package that with dependencies resolved and that you can cleanly remove.

@linmob of course, but if you got one in the last couple of years you should not need it.

As for gpodder...

Tell me one app that can:

- listen podcasts AND watch videos of channels you follow (youtube, peertube, etc). All your audiovisual subscriptions in one place.

- And that can sync your subscriptions list across multiple devices

- And that it is not only in flatpak package format

and I will check it ;)

Sure gpodder may be GTk3 and ugly, but it is a very complete tool for different use cases that do do stuff that many other apps cannot.

@linmob

nitpicking your nitpick:
the firmware update for the SD card was no help enabling it to work with open PGP cards, for a long time that is now enabled by default, so new users don't need to do that to have the openPGP card work.

The patriarchy is the reason you know the names Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Elon Musk, but you've never even once heard the name Evelyn Berezin.
