One of the few items I got is this audio guide tape for MacWrite and MacPaint, here shown hanging out with @paulrickards's Macintosh Plus floppies and a matching tape

I didn't take enough photos of interesting things being presented today but Ubuntu phone and #UBports has a special place in my heart. I was involved in the phone project and, together with the canonical certification team, shipped a complex testing app on this platform. It is amazing to see it alive and kicking in 2024 at the #UbuntuSummit.

Steam Phone is real. Finally got the controller working! #postmarketOS #steam #oneplus #gaming #linuxmobile #mobilelinux

@longnoserob and I organized a postmarketOS booth at Open Source Conference 2024 Tokyo/Fall (in Asakusa, Tokyo, Japan) today!

There were more than 40 persons visited to our booth. Many of them were so surprised when they had understood the fact that very recent MATE and Linux kernel work on a 12-years-old Arm device with proper touchscreen and rotation supports!

its official! i managed to port the current version of the #fluffychat matrix client back to aarch64 as flatpak.

the embarassing part is that I didnt get it to work due to #postmarketOS funny update mechanic which breaks apps at times. lmk if you want to test it. :)

It looks like a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 could be set to launch on or around November 20th. Mouser Electronics has product listings for a CM5 I/O carrier board, heatsink, and I/O board case, although pictures are "fore reference only." #CM5 #RaspberryPi #RaspberryPiCM5 https://buff.ly/3YC9TbO

Okay, so I finally published my first impressions running #Phosh and #Mobian on the #PocoF1!

Screenshots included, along with a few photos so you can see what the phone itself looks like. Link below, and sneak preview attached 😉️

I thought I understood the extent to which the broad availability of mobile location data has exacerbated countless privacy and security challenges. That is, until I was invited along with four other publications to be a virtual observer in a 2-weeek test run of Babel Street, a service that lets users draw a digital polygon around nearly any location on a map of the world, and view a time-lapse history of the mobile devices seen coming in and out of the area.

The issue isn't that there's some dodgy company offering this as a poorly-vetted service: It's that *anyone* willing to spend a little money can now build this capability themselves.

I'll be updating this story with links to reporting from other publications also invited, including 404 Media, Haaretz, NOTUS, and The New York Times. All of these stories will make clear that mobile location data is set to massively complicate several hot-button issues, from the tracking of suspected illegal immigrants or women seeking abortions, to harassing public servants who are already in the crosshairs over baseless conspiracy theories and increasingly hostile political rhetoric against government employees.

Playing with theming in ways that are unnecessary (got carried away while trying to fix a visual glitch).

What do you think? Please comment 🙂

Seems alright?
