- Do consider the energy usage of the apps you create. Some frameworks, databases, whatever may make development easier, but they shouldn't require a lot of hardware resources / energy to work properly.

- Do consider the energy usage of your development workflows. Triggering that CI/CD needlessly is a waste of energy, and so is leaving your hardware on when you aren't using it.

Quoting Greg Kroah-Hartman:
"After Android, Debian is by far the largest Linux user, and the Debian
kernel developers do an awesome job of tracking the stable kernel
releases which have been documented to fix 99% of known security issues _BEFORE_ they are known (data produced by Google security team for 2 years straight)."

99% is probably a little over optimistic (there's certainly some fixes which land in stable trees after they are publicly known), but his core argument is spot-on.

still hanging out in front of fairydust at the marktplatz #cccamp23 where you can play with our open hardware laptops (MNT Reform and Pocket Reform)

Thanks to all who listened to my newbie impressions of #Prolog at #CCCamp23 ! I hope you learned something too. (The talk was recorded and will be available online.)

If you like the way I present, then see you at my #Rust #workshop on Friday :)

It is my pleasure to announce that I'm leading an #embedded #Rust workshop at the #CCCamp23 . Come on Friday 17:00 to #Schattenland at #ChaosZone .

I'll show you how to use #no_std Rust, aka hard mode. Bring your laptop!

Today we #celebrate the 30th birthday of #debian, one of the largest and most important cornerstones of the #OpenSourceCommunity. With its revolutionary package management system and unwavering commitment to free software, the many Debian developers have now shaped the Linux universe for over three decades. We at TUXEDO also ultimately build our TUXEDO OS on the foundation of Debian. For this we would like to thank you very much and wish you the best for the next 30 years!

By the way, if you want to know more about the history of #GNOME I can totally recommend this talk by @blandford who's been around for a long time as well

"The time has come to concentrate on the future of Linux rather than on the destructive goal of enriching oneself at the expense of the entire Linux community and its future." -Ian Murdock, 1994

I've *finally* found the fix for telephony audio on the #librem5 runnig #nixos!
All I needed was the librem5.pa configuration for pulse audio from @purism's upstream repository to correctly add the modem as source/sink.

I am on an impromptu trip to an unfamiliar area due to a family emergency, and my rental car had no navigation built in. This meant I truly needed to depend on live turn-by-turn GPS navigation in Pure Maps on my Librem 5 for the first time.

It actually worked great! I packed a car vent magnetic mount and I was able to route to various destinations, reroute automatically, and otherwise use it like you'd expect.
