"If you want to write fast software, use a slow computer" - Dominic Tarr

I have always loved this quote and lived by its message long before I found it so succinctly put. Thanks again, Dominic.

🔩 Server maintenance due to hardware failure 🔩

Due to hardware failure we need to power down one one of the servers for maintenance (part replacement). We will use this opportunity to power cycle all servers and run some software maintenance on bare metals.

This means there will be short (up to 30minutes) downtime on all services within next 3 hours.

Hokay. I has arrived at the datacenter. Made myself coffee, and preparing to do software upgrade on all physical machines.

Do you know CryptPad?

It’s a powerful suite of collaboration and online office tools that allows us to create, share and work with others on text documents, spreadsheets, presentations, polls, whiteboards, code editing and even Kanban boards for projects.

And the best part: it all happens in a secure and private environment. All the content of our works and files is encrypted and decrypted in the web browser therefore no one (not even the server administrators) can access the information.

You don’t need an account to use it, but if you want to explore and use all its full collaborative and social features, you can create one. No personal information is required.

If you have a Disroot account, it won’t work. You need to create a separate account for it.

Sxmo 1.7.0 was just released, featuring most of all lots of fixes and small improvements that should make daily usage easier. Thanks to the many contributors!

Wow, #fosdem2022 has a dedicated track for FOSS on mobile devices: https://fosdem.org/2022/schedule/track/foss_on_mobile_devices/

If you are interested in #linuxphones you should check out the schedule. There's so much going on in the #linuxphone space right now. 😎

I feel like @postmarketOS or @danctnix is the future for me (still running a de-googled android right now though).
