The Best of Hack and /: Linux Admin Crash Course is published!

This book doesn't aim to be an exhaustive guide to everything you need to know to be a system administrator. Instead, this book allows me to act as a remote mentor to someone starting out in IT or system administration whether as a full-time job or as a full stack developer.

It's available in premium hardcover, paperback, and ebook forms here:

I've been playing around a lot with PGP since I have an openPGP card in my phone.

I made a backend to have my PGP card sign and encrypt messages in Chatty, the hope being that I can add transparent encryption/signing to SMS/MMS and the other protocols Chatty supports:

Due to all of the news around our Lapdock Kit, I was recently reminded of this Linux Journal article I wrote almost ten years ago (wow...) about my desire for what we now call convergence--using your phone as your main general-purpose personal computer.

Back then the best I could find was docking a Droid 4 on an Atrix lapdock, and running local Linux apps in a chroot over VNC.

How far we've come!

Does any #Librem5 user know how to improve the GPS accuracy on this mobile phone ?

I am totally lost between GPSD, Geoclue, Gnss-share and others ...

#Reboost appreciated

Today i got my #librem5 - after almost four years of waiting :D

I met someone else on campus who has a #librem5

I think this qualifies for the highest concentration of L5's/campus.

I'm not writing an entire blog post about how stupid a US TikTok ban would be because this is all that needs to be said:

If the Chinese government is in your threat model, don’t install TikTok on your device. Otherwise, your actual problem is surveillance capitalism.

Hey everyone! My friend @kyle is going to give a presentation at @socallinuxexpo in 30 minutes (3PM PST) -- you can watch live! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQMZCFww3bw

Here is the latest update on the fulfilment of the Librem 5 #phones.

As the number of Librem 5 customers grow, we look forward to greater community participation to develop new #software for it!

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
