Around 2021, I would've considered going to Israel in the future if Netanyahu was ousted in the elections, and the extremist right-wing members of his government would go out with him and if there was a glimmer of hope of peace with Palestine. Instead, he's still there, and they continued ruthlessly murdering Palestinian civilians and confined them to Gaza, the biggest open-air prison in the world.

@liw I think for folks that are really new there's still some fundamentals missing. in particular "self-contained" and "no bundled libraries" don't really make sense without an understanding that Debian fundamentally cares about its users' experience more than it cares about upstreams - that's why it offers stability guarantees and that's why it has its own security team that doesn't like bundled libraries, as opposed to having no/a significantly smaller security team and a reliance on upstreams to bump vendored libraries when appropriate.

there's a healthy amount of distrust of upstreams' processes in Debian and that's a feature. but that can be hard to understand as a newcomer who's wondering why all the software is so old.

Hard to avoid this conclusion.

An 11% increase in hate crimes against trans people is a direct side effect of Tory political strategy.

I'm so tired of teenagers being "the chosen ones" in fiction. please, let a middle-aged woman save the universe! she's seen some shit and dealt with it. she's tired of it all. she doesn't give a fuck. she's angry. she will get this shit done.

Im impressed with the quality of the USBC charger and cable OOB, this is going to be an interesting few days.

Initial feel is really good, light and small enough to have a use case, the magnetic pen sticks good and the magnetic cover is pretty good, i have yet to have any complaints, however i am not sure i should trust it entirely to keep the device from sliding out -- it will take usage to fibd out.

I had a associate draw on it using #krita #linuxart #art #pureos and they were impressed and felt it was good ebough for their sketching use case at minimum.

I will get feedback from long time 15 year #wacom #cintiq users, i would imagine they will find it adequate for some professional use cases which is excellent news as we have tried #wacommobilestudio and other devices with different degrees of success on #linux -- FYI wacom mobile studio is a PITA due to #nvidia having such problematic linux drivers -- it can be better to ommit usage and simple use #intel in that scenario.

The keeb wasnt working oob so i plugged in a wired on, i imagine its a easy fix, #phosh GUI didnt play nice with #krita but considering the value of krita on a light #tablet thats no big deal as it can be swapped out for #gnomemobile or other interfaces as convergence becomes more defacto.

I am pleasantly surprised, i am sure i will run into some rough edges as with any generation 1 product but my first impressions are that purism did an excellent job. Im sure there will be room for criticism ans self evaluation too but all things considered in my opinion we have a banger here -- the cameras were pretty decent too at a glance on the photos app.

I think this may be the year of the linux tablet, ha /s

Here are some photos of the Librem 11 that just arrived today. I ordered on day 1, hopefully this helps people understand the scale of the device -- see #steamdeck comparison.

My initial impressions are extremely impressed but I am pretty easy going considering I really like the pioneering in the #linux space by Purism. I'll write upore on my other account soon.

Had the need to charge an all electric Kia recently and guess what: both the charging stations app and the vendor's app are proprietary so how would I know when charging finished?

Turns out people around #HomeAssistant figured out the vendor API so I could use that to have a small app to monitor the charging status on my #Librem5 running #phosh

How big is #debian

Due to the issue with mailserver which took longer then expect and carried additional stress package exceeding the daily norm, we moved nextcloud update for tomorrow. And so 21.09.2023 around midnight we will be running nextcloud update which can cause downtime of an hour or so (depending how long the update will take).

Once, this is done we will update the changelog with information about today and tomorrow’s updates. Consider it Maintenance window #50b

I’m heading back home from the Global Gathering Feira in Portugal! While I was there I tables for the OnionShare project. When I realized that I had forgotten to pack my OnionShare stickers to give out, I decided instead to just directly share onions with people
