@shiftphones, a German phone company producing ethically sourced smartphones with a focus on repairability is now on Mastodon! They shipped #postmarketOS some phones to help develop mainline Linux support and get our system running well on it and so they are awesome in my book 😉

Go say hi and welcome them to the fediverse!

After seeing these :

aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git

aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git

Which basically downloads a DEB package, extracts the binaries and moves them to the correct places under /usr

I wonder: How many AUR packages do the same, and just get the deb package to install it in ?

I started out by making ink drawings - especially cat portraits, as gifts or commissions. This one shows one of the cats I'm taking care of right now, in his usual sleeping position, among the catnip :) ❤️

However, the cat amount in my family is growing so fast, I'm already 8 cats behind with my drawings!

As you can see, this one is from 2013, and I was really into Art Nouveau back then 😅 🔥.

@dylanvanassche I have signed this letter too. Shipping unfinished work gives upstream a bad reputation, makes support a big hassle and disincentivizes developers to work in public.
#dontshipwip

do-not-ship.it

📢 📢 📢 Today we publish an Open Letter from developers to the #Linux #community regarding shipping unfinished patches to users.

Shipping unfinished patches harms the user experience and slows down the review process in #FOSS projects to improve the patches.

You can read our Open Letter at: do-not-ship.it

If you agree with this letter, you can support it by signing it, see: do-not-ship.it/sign

#donotship #openletter #community #mobile #development #userexperience #opensource #PSA

An open letter from developers to #Linux distro maintainers and the wider community on publishing unfinished, work in progress patches to end-users.

Read it here: do-not-ship.it/

#donotship #linuxmobile #opensource

While I understand that you're excited about new features and bug fixes you should hold your horses and wait until upstream deems their software ready (by issuing a release).

If you're having trouble with your Gmail account in Thunderbird today, it might be due to Google now requiring OAuth 2.0 authentication.

Thunderbird SHOULD transition your account automatically, but if you're not able to connect, try going into your Gmail Account's Server Settings and manually changing "Authentication Method" to OAuth2 (it should NOT be "Normal.")
