It looks like the latest #Librem5 kernel update reduced active power consumption by another 100-140mA based on my own measurements. I hear there are a lot more improvements in the pipeline once we switch from 5.3 to the 5.6 kernel.

Facebook just dropped an Engineering Whitepaper on how they made the new version of their iOS app faster and more reliable and it basically boils down to "Use native OS API calls whenever possible"

It's a 20+ paragraph screed that reads like a technical manual, and that's all it really says. "Maybe electron is bad and we should use native calls?". They called it "Project Lightspeed".

I'm screaming.

Before Clearview Became a Police Tool, It Was a Secret Plaything of the Rich #privacy

In Britain, we say, "let the crisps fall where they may", but we hope they go into the bowl and not onto the floor, because we still want to eat them.

Today we decided to phase out on all webbased services old TLS1 support in favor of TLSv1.2 exclusively. We hope everyone runs relatively up to date software by now and not many people will suffer. TLSv1.3 is coming soon too.

We are still aren't sure about email as there is many old mail clients in the wild.

This bot followed me. Seeing lots of folks mention it, and other similar bots from the same instance.

Thinking we may want to do something?

The latest changes to hit the #Librem5 staging repo have dramatically increased my quality of life. First, Chatty now can use the haptic motor so I get vibration notifications w/ messages. Second, the top menu bar now features quick access to more settings.

There's no upside to mass surveillance.

Gotta love rapid meaningful development...

#phosh 0.1.8 got released : https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/tags/v0.1.8 mostly ground work this time around but also some bug fixes

#librem5 @purism #gtk #wayland

That's @merge 's series i wanted to link to above: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/20190821132520.28225-1-martin.kepplinger@puri.sm/

Based on @merge 's accelerometer work (https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/cover.1569143551.git.lorenzo@kernel.org/) and yesterday's work to hook iio-sensor-proxy into #phosh, enabling rotation is just a couple of more lines of code.

The video shows the #librem5 devkit but it is the same for the phone. Please excuse the low video quality.

Testing an upcoming feature during the #Stockholm XMPP sprint: Leave a group chat on #Dino and #Conversations will leave as well, join a new group chat on Conversations and Dino will join too. The underlying protocol extension was also implemented by #Gajim and #prosody during the sprint. #XMPP
