@dthompson the ratio of words you write and those I understand without looking them up has changed significantly in your past few toots.

@dansup "Unknown Artist"? That's the classic b richmond. Follow up with the fight with Coke:
Mastodon.cloud seems down for an extended time. Might use the opportunity to give librem.one a more serious try.
@dthompson there should be a word for that. Or maybe there already is...
@dansup surprisingly engaging
@martijnbraam just wait until that's followed by 1.4.4-actual

This is the PineTime. A companion for your Linux smartphone, and new side-project of ours. More news coming in the future...
(If you have experience with FreeRTOS or mbed, and are interested, please get in touch!)

The #Librem5 and the #PinePhone are two very similar, yet very different Linux smartphones. What makes them so different, and which one should you buy?
We wrote an in-depth comparison article that will hopefully help you choose one:

@ataraxia937@fosstodon.org what a weird part of the world where "we'll let the market decide", unless the market wants competition in which case it becomes "our business model must be protected"
@cjd or wait, doesn't Chromebook support Android apps directly now?
@cjd that's dedication to the Chromebook cause. Any reason you don't just use Crouton and get the GNU/Linux versions of these things?
@Anprim@todon.nl @switchingsocial@mastodon.at KOreader is my go-to. I've also used Cool Reader and FBReader but they're not as good an interface by default.
@switchingsocial@mastodon.at @masterofthetiger@theres.life I'm using it on a Galaxy S7. As you said, it's likely the least bad option for nontechnical folks. The main proprietary parts I've noticed so far are the Maps application (actually "Magic Earth") and the "Apps" version of the app store that includes and promotes proprietary applications by default.
That said, there is no better shipping option that I've found. Once the LibreM 5 or the PinePhone are released that might change

so, now you've spent around $150 for your computer, phone, and games. buying these refurbished keeps waste from the landfills. they are all really well supported and the computer has tons of replacement parts available on the cheap so you can repair it if anything breaks instead of throwing it away

for a computer, i use a Lenovo Thinkpad T430. You can get one of these on ebay for around $80. I replaced the harddrive in mine for an SSD so that ended up costing a little bit more, but now it runs about the same as a macbook air.
if you install linux (which these days is easier than installing Windows) you can get a free OS with all the common software you need for free

@purism what is LibreM dial going to be under the hood? Have you looked at collaborating with JMP.chat ?

#OpenStreetMap is looking for admin help to keep infrastructure alive

@dk_oof@mstdn.io @switchingsocial@mastodon.at @ChrisTalleras@mastodon.art @robjloranger@mastodon.technology at 9.8 MB it's probably using the system WebView. Firefox Klar is similar.
@erikstl @reclus @switchingsocial@mastodon.at street number data may be there but OsmAnd doesn't do interpolation of it. It only finds the start and end street numbers.
Other OSM interfaces will take the length and for a number in the even/odd sequence calculate how far along that the house number likely is.
Interesting. I can't see my toots from other instances (mastodon.cloud and pixelfed.social)
