A new milestone has been achieved, the @Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 now boots from linux-next defconfig with no additional changes!
This means all necessary changes are in the Maintainers git trees and will be sent to Linus in the next Linux merge window planned in 2 or 3 weeks!

Today was cell broadcast test day in NL. @janvlug and @z3ntu thankfully captured Modemmanager logs. Piped that into my MM testcase and could parse it out all right:

> NL-Alert 04-12-2023 12:00: TESTBERICHT. De overheid waarschuwt je tijdens noodsituaties via NL-Alert. Je leest dan wat je moet doen en waar je meer informatie kan vinden. *** TEST MESSAGE Netherlands Government Public Warning System. No action required.

Next up message assembly and exposing it on DBus.

hey folks, if you're interested in giving a talk about something #LinuxMobile related at #FOSDEM in February then please do send us a submission!

Speaking from experience with last year it's a whole lot of really chill people, so whether you're a seasoned public speaker or haven't given a talk before ever (I'm the latter) it should be a really great time, and a good way to let people know what you've been working on.

Instructions on how to submit a talk can be found here: https://gitlab.com/fosdem_mobile/devroom

The Call for Papers for the "FOSS on Mobile Devices" devroom at @fosdem runs until the end of this week! Now is definitely the time to submit your talk proposals at https://fosdem.org/submit 😉️

Don't be shy, all free/open-source projects related to smartphones and tablets are welcome!

#Metadados

É tempo de a Assembleia da Republica deixar de seguir as opiniões completamente alheadas da realidade jurídica (vindas das autoridades de investigação criminal), e começar a tratar este assunto do ponto de vista estritamente jurídico.

Já tivemos oportunidade de o dizer na própria Assembleia, no grupo de trabalho dos metadados. Forças policiais, Ministério Público, etc, foram ao Parlamento para vociferar contra as decisões do TJUE e do TC, numa atitude quase de desprezo e afronta. O resultado está à vista.

Não é preciso concordar ou gostar das decisões dos tribunais. Só é preciso cumpri-las.
Enquanto isto não for entendido, o ping-pong vai continuar.

Today I start my new job, working full time on #postmarketOS 🥳

After two and a half years of rewrite, #Fractal 5 is finally out! Get the #GTK 4 #Rust #Matrix client from https://flathub.org/fr/apps/org.gnome.Fractal and enjoy new features such as #EndToEndEncryption, location sharing, or multi-account with Single-Sign On 🚀

"Daily Driving Mobile Linux" posts are too overdone. What about a "Not Daily Driving Android" post?

- I did not get popup ads obscuring my apps.
- I did not have to restart Google Play Services
- I was able to remove the apps my OS came with.
- My phone did not overheat because it is too weak for Android tracking.
- My phone did not get a virus from the official app sources.
- I didn't have Sudoku 2 preinstalled.

Happy 36th anniversary of the Max Headroom Signal Hijacking, for those who celebrate.

Here is the final #Librem14 video! It was entirely made with a Librem14 and some accessories featuring in the video (screens + tablet).

I used Free Software only: #Blender , #kdenlive and #Krita . 🎬

Got an UVC webcam working in Megapixels 2.0

It's currently pushing YUYV formatted data into a RGGB debayer so that's completely wrong, but it runs!

Interestingly, a significant chunk of https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2023/so-you-want-make-raspberry-pi-killer applies to the #LinuxMobile "market", especially the section about software support.
Actually, you could replace #RaspberryPi with #Librem5 in this section and it would still make a lot of sense! Kudos to @purism engineers for that 😉️

Our shared stand together with #PureOS, @mobian, #SailfishOS and @ubports for #FOSDEM2024 got accepted!

https://fosdem.org/2024/news/2023-11-20-accepted-stands-fosdem-2024/

We hope to see you all there! We'll show of some devices running all our awesome software and will gladly answer all your questions and show you all the new cool stuff that happened since last year!

Once again, John Oliver making things clear with humor, wit and a big heart. Yes, you can feel the pain and fear of people on both sides of the war. Yes, Israelis are not Netanyahu and Palestinians are not Hamas. And yes, definitely, a cease fire is not the solution but it is a first step in the right direction.
