We live under capitalism, not democracy. The sooner you understand that, far from being complementary, these two ideologies are diametrically opposed, and yes, that this is a zero-sum game, the sooner things start to make sense.

Centralization is totally fine, until it isn't.
Robinhood would never shut people out of buying an asset... until they did.
A guillotine is a perfectly safe place to put your head, until it's not.

Unboxing the Purism Librem 5 Evergreen https://devtube.dev-wiki.de/videos/watch/66ea3360-2b2a-4e3e-8796-de7ae271ac1b

This is no where near finished but here's some first bits of startup notifications in #phosh (i'm usually using #epiphany on the #librem5 but I needed something that takes longer to start up so i went for #firefox):

New @postmarketOS installer feature. You can now choose if you want to install to the SD you're booted from or install to the #pinephone internal storage :)

@postmarketOS That is phantastic @martijnbraam. We wants that precious code!

Using #gimp on the #librem5 works better now thanks to the new display scaling feature in #phosh 0.8.0 #UserFreedom #mobile #gnu #linux #freesoftware @purism @agx #gnomeonmobile

#phosh 0.8.0 is out 🚀 : https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/phosh/-/releases/v0.8.0

Changing output resolutions and scaling via GNOME Settings should now mostly work, system modal dialogs don't pop up on the lock screen anymore plus more fixes and i18n improvements. Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release!

@phryk I found my ancient Philips mp3 player. I wonder if the battery still works.

Oh wait, of course it does, it's powered by a single AA battery.

There is no procrastination, it's called lazy initializiation.

The only thing saving us right now is the complete incompetence of the fascists this time around.

The 3rd of my Librem 5 recent teasers, that was made in lock-down mode, with what I had at home : https://lbry.tv/@purism:8/gaming-that-respects-you:7

Continuamos a pagar um imposto, cada vez mais pesado, q não tem a mínima lógica. Sempre q compramos um produto tecnológico com capacidade de gravação e/ou armazenamento, pagamos um imposto privado q n tem qq justificação. E sempre q a lei é alterada é para pagarmos ainda mais.

Le Capy du Soir

Partilhei isto como se fosse um DeLorean, para os meus amigos normalóides (com dificuldades culturais geek). Uma amiga observou que se calhar, era o Flash a passar devagarinho. Na verdade, aposto em teste a turbolasers.
