@agx @purism are there plans to make that Quake II demo available (repository / PureOS store)?

I think it would be a very cool way to show off the capabilities of the device to friends.
Who doesn't like a nice 3D demo? 😍
A more family friendly alternative also wouldn't hurt 😉

Shameless bragging...

The last funding goal of @Framasoft 's project for an ActivityPub-enabled event coordination software is nearly reached!

It needs less than 200€ a day in the 16 days to go until the end of the campaign to be fully funded.

Worried about the sustainability of the solution? Framasoft already funded (and developed) #PeerTube, which was released in v1.0 in October 2018. The last release was one week ago, and they're still working on it.

Summer solstice is upon us. Happy midsummer.

"Software is deeply intertwined with all means of production, communication, and travel. We are quickly approaching a society in which every action is determined, predicted, or prevented by an algorithm. This lack of tension, while injustice remains the status quo, is what negative peace [as described by MLK] looks like."

Being lazy I didn't want to walk 2 steps to the front room from the kitchen. To check for updates on my laptop. 😂

Just donated a few doubloons to 3 projects that I use on a daily basis (& used before I even knew what FLOSS was) and figured t'was about time I showed them a little bit of appreciation.

I've often thought 'I really must donate to some of these projects' and then not got round to it, so using the Solstices and Equinoxes as a gentle nudge/reminder will hopefully mean that a few different projects get a little boost of cash and a wee show of appreciation throughout the year.

I like the idea. I think the main problems are visibility and simplicity (to donate).
I'd love to see donation buttons to important (and invisible) projects in @purism 's PureStore, in addition to a pay-what-you-want model for the apps. Creates visibility and simplicity 😀

Food for thought via @tuxdevices / @mike :

Hadn't occurred to me before but just did a quick interweb search for 'Solstinox' and...

...there's a game that was made with the Unreal Engine at the Université du Québec à Chicoutimi called "Solstinox".

And also a game called "World's Nicht" being developed by a company called "Solstinox Games".

And there's also apparently a Ground/Dragon Legendary Pokemon called 'Solstinox'.

It is the master of the Season Quartet.

Does this legitimise the name or make it 'already taken'? :)

The celebration part would be the Sonnwendfeuer (SunTurnFire), where some make BIG fires and enjoy 😉
Anyway, I think you'd need one catchy term like
Freedom Sunshine Fundraiser (FSF),
and paint it differently each quarter:
"The longest night ahead (northern hemisphere at least), the pockets of some projects are just as dim. While shopping for Xmas, think of them"
"Today, night and day are equal. Let's help those projects "in the dark" get equal funding."
"Rise and shine!" ...
