@agx has me excited the Librem 5 by playing quake2 on the devkit! It doesn't take much to get me excited about this phone.

@skynebula @purism WOW this is old news. They have fixed the issues with the inactive trackers left in by matrix, fixed the vulnerabilities, offered the fixes upstream, and have been independently verified by multiple sources. Also, they where very open about every issue. The amount of transparency by Purism has been beyond verbose! I applaud them for the continued contributions to the FOSS community

@sir why not both? I preordered both but likely going to use the pine phone for distro hopping and the Librem 5 will likely stay stock for my daily driver.

Looking at open source motor controllers for my electric motorcycle conversion! Research phase.

No fix it tickets in my queue, 9 hours worth of meeting, and still closed 18 tickets to enable new features. All quite on the digital front.

@kyle Smart thinking! I used to have to travel 1200 miles a few times a year for work. Driving enabled to bring my family in tow too!

@pkimpton installed it from the AUR, going to but it through it's paces tonight! Thanks for pointing it out!

@gbryant If you need any help with your newest endeavors in spreading FOSS, I am ready to help. Server admin/DevOps with a long record of sometimes getting things right. Just want to help the cause and you, if you need/want it!

@ldopa steal cut oats primary uses are for porridge and making goetta. From what I understand steal cutting them and rolling them, makes it stay "good" longer.

Did some IT work for a goetta factory when I was contract back in the day, boss man talked my ear off about it

WFH today and possibly tomorrow. Hearing the kids playing in the backyard while I am working from the porch. I need to get back to this permanently.

So hard to replicate encrypted traffic by sniffing. Smart idea would be to just look at the open source client.

@pkimpton The bloat is real. Even crazier, I think all that wasn't shipped with the phone. I bet LG sold out the user that haven't upgraded yet. Anything for a buck...

@pkimpton looks like it is rooting time. Unless you did this beforehand https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-nexus/general/guide-phone-backup-unlock-root-t1420351

Solid read on QubesOS (links below). Considering putting it on my backup server just for testing. It seems to be a good testing ground to put a second PostgreSQL and drop it in a VPN and/or Tor. Some VPNs allow ports to be open in certain locations. Playing with replication methods in PostgreSQL today.

@pkimpton Let alone a resource hungry VM like Windows lol.
I waited a long time to root with the v20, but so glad I did. Lineage 16 is so much faster and doesn't drain battery overnight while I am sleeping.

@pkimpton maybe I didn't dig enough on XDA or maybe downgrading works differently

@pkimpton That is awesome, I messed up an HTC once doing that exact thing. I am glad it didn't mess with your phone.
With the v20 the restore tools are windows tools (lame). I have to boot a VM with USB shared to the instance and downgrade it just to get root.
