@APBBlue Hi, I'm in the DC area and have helped many people switch to Linux. If you think I could help at all, feel free to get in touch.

This is a really excellent analysis of the opportunities and risks of an effort I'm involved with—ensuring tokenized cooperative ownership is widely available under US law: https://ownership.substack.com/p/should-the-sec-update-cooperative
@Logical_Error I think a pmOS wiki page about eSIM would be really useful.

Okay I finally got back to my super commuter bike project. Did some welding this evening and got the front triangle together. Just need to add one more pivot near the bottom bracket.

Lillian Gish leans on Jesus (and her shotgun) in THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTER (1955).
Charles Laughton's Noir parable is on Tubi.

@neil I recall that Chats had dropped support for xmpp. So I think Dino will be the best bet. Do notifications from Dino fail to show even when the app is open? Or do you mean if the app is closed, it won't give notifications?
@neil @jeb2 I find Flare does enough for what I need. An alternative is the unofficial signal flatpak that includes an arm build here: https://signalflatpak.github.io/signal/

Bob Ross art from his 1983-94 TV show will be auctioned to support PBS.
30 paintings will be sold. Two were auctioned earlier this year for a combined $210K.
"I can’t think of a more meaningful way to share his works of art than by supporting public television"

@phosh Are there devices that can run phosh and can be docked? Where can one find out more about that possibility?
@neil Thanks. This sounds promising.
@neil Ooh that is very interesting then. Are you on edge or stable image of pmOS?
@elperronegro @neil @postmarketOS Tuba is a really nice linux client for Mastodon that is mobile optimized.
@neil Do you know if the successful calls are over a 2G/3G signal, or using VoLTE (4G calling)? I understand the UK is in the process of shutting down 2G/3G networks, but not sure about that particular carrier at the moment. The issue in the USA is that 2G and 3G have been shut down, so VoLTE functionality is needed here. But I know things vary by country and even carrier.
@sam I daily drive a mobile Linux phone, and also use JMP and XMPP. I use the Dino app from Flathub, and calls and texting work fine. Only issue is that I don't get notifications if the app is closed. Do you have a better method than what I'm doing?

My buddies start pulling on their ski masks and checking their submachine guns.
"Brace yourselves!" the driver yells, and we smash through the high fence protecting the USDA's National Stone Fruit Reserve Facility, the "Fort Knox of Plums".
"Do you think we're taking this bit too far?" I ask, but my buddy smacks me in the shoulder.
"There's no time for cold feet now! You need to stay focused on the cold sweets we're about to steal from Uncle Sam's own icebox."

I do see similar language on the Mobian site: "It's recommended that you upgrade Android to the latest available version and install all system updates before installing Mobian, because Mobian uses FW files from Android partitions for enabling various peripherals (e.g. WIFI)."

@kop316 Oh interesting. This is from the postmarketOS site for the device:
