@kyle Yeah, I enjoyed Ergo Proxy for sure.
If you are into psychological dystopian cyberpunk anime, I would HIGHLY recommend checking out the first season of psycho pass. My understanding is that it is similar to minority report, but either way it is gritty and masterfully done.

Just some screenshots of Shattered-pixel-Dungeon a fun little Roguelike RPG running on the #Pinephone
I showed this one before but I realized there is a .jar version in the LinMobGames repo now so you can use it on more then just Mobian. I just love this game it's not specially complicated but a ton of fun and I even played it before I had a Pinephone! :D
Big thanks to @ShatteredPixel (Twitter) for the amazing work!

Valve just dropped the bomb. A cheap portable console like computer with Linux on it (and it's arch btw). It's called the #SteamDeck.
2021 confirmed year of the Linux portable gaming console.

next-generation LS1028A processor module for MNT Reform powering up at RBZ Logics, Madrid
@linmob Thanks for putting together this write-up! I suspect that after Linux on phones matures a bit more, Linux on tablets will begin to get a lot more focus. With that in mind, it's nice to see where things start as of today.

New blog post:
GNU/Linux on Tablets: Hardware
https://linmob.net/gnu-linux-on-tablets-hardware/
#linuxtablets
@dos Based on the results, it looks like time well spent.
@mntmn Ooh, is that a 360 degree hinge!?
Bonus points if your mini reform can open all the way and transform into a mini tablet form factor.

To anyone interested in the #Pinephone, or even the #Librem5 and #Linux #smartphones in general, we owe a huge debt of gratitude imo to #Megi.
He's not employed to do this, but donates hundreds of his own personal hours helping to get the hardware working, increase battery life (over and over) and generally make a huge amount of the smartphone progress we've seen, happen.
I'm personally extremely grateful and encourage everyone to donate at the bottom of his page here:

@purism That was a good list, but you did miss a couple of my personal favorites. I'd highly recommend checking out Kobe Deluxe as well as Battle for Wesnoth. Also, there is really high quality stealth game called "the dark mod", that I would recommend. IIRC, it is built using the Doom 3 engine.

We are proud that mobian developer kop316 has now gone for a real fork of the unmaintained mmsd and will be trying to get it into Debian. Also @purism will be using his code on the Librem5. It goes both ways! This will hopefully become the basis for The Next Generation of mmsd:

@purism I suppose while I am dreaming out loud here, I should be more specific. I think what the world needs is an electric equivalent of the original VW Beetle. More specifically, it should be simplistic, affordable, and should be repairable by a single person within their garage.
@purism Ugh... looks like the future of cars is going to suck.
I know this seriously wasn't the point you were trying to make but, how about after you guys finish up with your upcoming tablet release. Why not at least evaluate the feasibility of making a repairable, privacy respecting electric car that doesn't do the whole vendor lock-in thing. I've heard that the people at zero motorcycles have teamed up with other companies before to make electric cars.
Anyhow, keep up the good work!

i've booted mainline linux on this (ls1028a) but still working on the display pipeline, which is kinda nuts (mali dp->cadence mhdp (imx8 flavored)) and gpu (GC7000UL). so far:
- monitor/edid detected on DP and have mali dp fb0, but stays black
- etnaviv binds but MMU faults
on a positive note: lots of peripherals work and the cortex-a72s feel snappy
