Spent the morning looking how much work the move of #phosh to #gtk4 / #libadwaita will be and it turned out better than expected.
Needed to stub out some dependencies (libcall-ui, gcr, libgnome-desktop) and hack back support for custom wayland surfaces into #gtk4 but with that things start to work and we can go widget by widget:
After 36 hours on a bus from Portugal back to Germany, my ears hurt from the rubber bands of the mask.
On the up side, first night after arriving in Germany slept a lot. Haven't slept that many hours in a long time. :D
Down side: It was about 30ºC in Portugal when I traveled back to cold Germany.

Seit über 10 Jahren entwickelt sich in unserem Kiez eine Solidarische Nachbarschaft. Diese gilt es, bewusst wahrzunehmen, zu stärken und zu promoten. Wir laden dich daher ein zu einer Versammlung für Groß und Klein, um genau dies zu tun.

We pay to Steam, Netflix, Amazon prime, Spotify. But not to Wikipedia, Archive.org, Librivox, Project Gutenberg, for our favourite Linux distro.
The huge asymmetry between corporate and community has not emerged naturally. It is a product of our choices of not supporting community oriented projects.
The short conveniences vs the long-term good. We always chose the former.
In face of surveillance capitalism, we must and must change.
@devrtz I had that issue yesterday with another instance. I solved it by copying the config files tootle on my desktop, to my phone.

Hey all! I’ve been working hard to get the #Podcast up and running. I think I’m FINALLY at a point where I’m ready to go.
The first episode is already live and ready for you. It’s a little old now, due to setup, but it’s definitely still relevant!
Did you know @awai (the founder of @mobian) plays Guitar, and has album called “Dirty Greed” up on band camp? Neither did I! The sound is hella tight. Links are in the video description and on the Podcast Homepage.
The Podcast #video is available here: https://media.kaitaia.life/w/2waGiHKoqD7Jmg3Nw3Vq81
The Podcast #Homepage is: https://pebkac.show
You can find the #RSS feeds for #MP3; #AAC; #OGG; #FLAC and #Opus are all listed clearly on the main page.
If you just want to skip all the hassle, you can grab the MP3 feed here: https://pebkac.show/web/feed/mp3/
A huge shoutout and thank you, goes out to @awai, for giving me some of his precious time for an interview. Also, @linmob for helping me decide on direction, and giving some sound advice along the way.
I’d really love to hear what you think, and let me know if there’s anything you think I could do to make it better!
Thanks so much!
PS. Please forgive the ping and hashtag stuffing! After this post, I’ll never do it again (unless someone wants me too 😉)

@muppeth ahahahahah
At a job I had 4 years ago before leaving setup a server for automated backups and network shared folders. And documented everything about it, for whoever took maintenance of it. 4 years later they asked me help to solve a problem. I said: “that is described in the documentation I wrote 4 years ago.”
The reply was: “We had forgotten that documentation existed. It worked so well these last 4 years that we never read that doc and forgot it existed.”
Not sure if I should rant or rave.

Just released a new app!
📣 Audio Sharing is available on Flathub now!
https://flathub.org/apps/details/de.haeckerfelix.AudioSharing
It's a small tool which allows you to stream your current computer audio over the network as a RTSP stream.

We've been having a bit of a summer (well, autumn soon) pause for Karrot, especially as I (@nicksellen) have been on a bike tour 🚲 🏕️
BUT we have very exciting news! 📰
We're through to the next round of the nlnet funding thing we applied for 🤑 💰 💸
Will be bigger celebration if we get all the way, but nice to celebrate for now! 🎈 🍾
Another alternative besides contacting purism support would have been making a post asking for access in the community forum where several of the contributors to that wiki are also present. Or asked for access in our matrix chat rooms
@linmob You could have contacted purism via our support email, it was only by chance that I saw this post on a social network.
Your request for access is approved now.

@rysiek @qbi @emacsomancer want to see who wrote and maintains OMI?
tmpdir=$(mktemp -d); git clone https://github.com/microsoft/omi.git "$tmpdir" && git -C "$tmpdir" shortlog -sne --all | awk '{domain=$NF; sub(/>$/,"",domain); sub(/^[^@]*@/,"",domain); sub(/\\.*/,"",domain); sub(/^</,"",domain); count[domain]+=$1}; END{for (domain in count) printf("%d\t%s\n", count[domain], domain)}' | sort -nk 1
"FLOSS in the supply chain is a risk" is corrosively disingenuous.

Sinceramente dava-nos jeito ter mais mãos a ajudar, porque torna-se impossível acompanhar a catadupa de disparates legislativos que saem dos órgãos de soberania. Caros lurkers, é tempo de dar o passo, porque isto não vai num bom caminho ;)
