Tip: the only people who think that the Open Source Definition does not define "open source" are saying so because they have a vested interest in marketing software which does not qualify for the title as such. Watch out for these arguments, they are gaslighting you.

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.
