First time MeetingPoint runs on a phone!
Video sharing (from the builtin camera) and audio also works. Its in the GNOME shell-dev room.

Are your fingers crooked from typing long and complicated #passwords ?

Here's relief for you: a #password generator which cares about your hands:

dorotac.eu/posts/password/

```
# cargo run 128
t i8ep51\:,.9y0me 94;z
Entropy: 129.07819
Chars: 22
Presses: 23
Modifiers: 1
```

Much better. Capitals and %$^$ should be just a garnish, not half the meal.

First #RaspberryPi earned a shitstorm by hiring a cop formerly specialized in hidden surveillance.

Now they accept an investment by Sony for their proprietary AI engine to be included in the next Pi. Which "only sends metadata to the cloud".

Here's a fine list of alternatives to that now-garbage company:

- beagleboard.org/
- orangepi.org/
- banana-pi.org/
- hardkernel.com/

Nice #Librem5 update today brings Camera-Update. All the different functions (Gain, Balance, Exposure, Focus) can now be set to auto. While not always working perfect, this enhances my fotos as my use case in 99 % is not to set all parameters perfectly but to just take quick a foto. Also there is video-recording now. I am excited. I am about two weeks daily driving my Librem5 now and I feel that I will not switch back to Android. #purism #linuxphones

Fedi is the most strange thing in the world.

On normal social media, you write a message and people just ignore it forever.

Here, you write a message, it stays ignored for 1 or 2 years, and then all of a sudden, for no reason, with no explanation, someone finds it somehow, boosts it, and it gets 200 likes and 120 boosts.

What the fuck.

I'm sure someone will boost this message in 2021 or 2022.

Librem 5 waking up from system suspend on incoming call's first signal; soon your L5 will do that too.

Some of the styling for 's long button press menu is now in place (aka merge requests) and things are also tied to the emergency call side.

This is how it looks when emergency call numbers are fetched from the phone's sim card:

I've been playing around a lot with PGP since I have an openPGP card in my phone.

I made a backend to have my PGP card sign and encrypt messages in Chatty, the hope being that I can add transparent encryption/signing to SMS/MMS and the other protocols Chatty supports:

What's left now is to work on the UI to have friendly user integration.

@nextcloud what an endorsement!

I was looking on github for a repo for the website, couldn't find one.

Was wondering if you'd be up for switching to @plausible for analytics so you could get rid of the cookie banner.

#cookieFree

Agreed!! Plausible is a great tool for tracking just basic information and not invading people's privacy 🔏

...for my usage pattern the fact that mpv can now successfully disable the screensaver is the most notable improvement in this release 📺 .
