Testing out a generic 360 degree-style laptop dock, which seems to work pretty well with the Librem 5 out of the box!

When my dad passed away I forwarded his mail to my address so I could settle his affairs. Two years later and I still get mail marketing addressed to him every week (today it was literally for life insurance). Even death isn't enough to stop advertisers.

Oh you know, just printing from my Librem 5 phone to a printer it automatically detected and configured over the local network. No big deal...

When you share a Linux Journal article you wrote to help someone, and realize it's 12 years old...

We just watched a documentary about art forgery with my 8-year-old son, and now my wife is explaining extradition treaties as she tucks him in. ⁨#parenting

And from the Vice article that broke the story: "Among the thousands of other data points, vehicle location data is transmitted on a constant and near real time basis while the vehicle is operating." https://www.vice.com/en/article/k7adn9/car-location-data-telematics-us-military-ulysses-group

"Ulysses claims it can currently access more than 15 billion vehicle locations around the world every month, and it estimates that, by 2025, 100 percent of new cars will be connected and transmitting gigabytes of collectible data per hour." #privacy https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2021/03/one-company-wants-to-sell-the-feds-location-data-from-every-car-on-earth/

@jlcrawf I believe some teams who are on call do still pass around a literal pager to whomever is on call, but that's obviously not the norm now. However it still is relatively common to refer to the device waking you up as your "pager" and being on call as having "pager duty" (where PagerDuty got its name after all).

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray my pager does not beep
If servers crash before I wake
I pray it will not escalate

Apparently there is an even larger orange that isn't ripe yet. I will follow up later with pictures when we pick that one.

If this orange were the Sun, this dime would be Jupiter.

The first picture doesn't really capture the scale of this orange, but how about the fact that it can wear an N95 mask.

We just picked a massive navel orange from our tree today. Normal-sized meyer lemon and quarter for scale.

@yaelwrites Time to follow more accounts!
