New phone who dis? It's real!
The #Librem5 is almost like the #PinePhone's big and slightly more specced up sibling - a Linux pocket computerbox bringing desktop covergence to a phone - and @purism has contributed most of the code that allows Gnome/Phosh/Linux on a phone to dynamically resize desktop apps. Happy to finally get mine and support this project! Purism got bodyslammed by supply chain issues during the pandemic and is now catching up on shipping ❤️ See https://puri.sm/

Cool down study

#Pinetime #InfiniTime user on Linux? You might want to give #watchmate a try! It's a fairly new companion app that already supports many features (notifications, music control,...) and it even allows flashing the new resources from InfiniTime!

The whole system revolves around the idea that the majority can be made to believe 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠, so long as it is repeated loudly and often.

And it works.

U.S. border officials copy the contents of up to 10,000 phones and computers every year and save them to a big database for 15 years, as we first reported in September: https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2022/09/15/government-surveillance-database-dhs/

Following pressure from Sen. Wyden, the agency, CBP, now says it's considering shrinking that 15-year save time and plans to give people more details about what they're doing: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/01/31/abraham-accords-expand-with-cybersecurity-collaboration/

The biggest piece of advice I'd give to colleagues who are devs, is to figure out what you will do when software dev work moves from many opportunities writing code at a large number of companies to fewer jobs managing automated systems that write code.

Sysadmin/neteng careers made that transition w/ cloud over the past decade, the remaining major cost for tech-heavy orgs are devs, which is why the industry focus is on reducing that head count with automation. Tech is not there yet, but coming.

✔️ We all want individual freedom.
✔️ We all want peace of mind that we are safe
✔️ We want to control our own digital lives
✔️ We want to be free

Please boost, share and continue to support Purism's social mission.

Do you agree or disagree with this statement about email:

"Encrypt any message you wouldn’t feel comfortable sending on a post card."

(Context: we're reading through an old but fantastic document called The CryptoParty Handbook.)

A cool video about #Mastodon from @vkc in case you missed it!

"Food is not evil, but gluttony is. Childbearing is not evil, but fornication is. Money is not evil, but avarice is. Glory is not evil, but vainglory is. Indeed, there is no evil in existing things, but only in their misuse."
