I will be sure to relay this to the support team!

And I hope that all issues encountered with the L14 are sorted!

So my spouses iPhone has stopped receiving calls, and is seems that when she calls folks, it goes straight to voicemail. So naturally, I joined Apple's community Matrix channel and their devs helped to fix the problem.

No wait sorry, that's what I do with @purism when my #librem5 has issues (which for the record, it makes and receives calls/SMS/MMS just fine).

What will likely happen is a perfectly good phone goes in the trash because of some software bug.

@alphasixtyfive @chiefgyk3d @gnome @debian

We're talking basically from bootloader, kernel drivers all the way up in userspace, be that wayland protocol bits for input, libhandy/libadwaita, work on invidivual applications and packaging in and work in

If you take all of that into account the equation changes quite a bit!

Also: It's hard to actually get manufacturers to talk to you (and not ignore your emails) when you're a small fish in the sea!

3/3

@alphasixtyfive @chiefgyk3d

However you might want to consider some additional factors:

Our software developers write software and very much like to feed themselves and their families ;)

And while we fortunely build on top of a lot of great projects like @gnome @debian (and lots of others)
**A LOT** of work still had to be done and all of that is being done in the open. Our developers try hard to do the right thing™ and upstream everything.

@alphasixtyfive @chiefgyk3d

Sure, it is a lot of money and we understand how one might come to this conclusion when **only** looking at the hardware specs.

You might also find it fun that you can switch to a different tty.
@devrtz had to do some last-minute fixing of his before giving a presentation at 😎 a couple of days ago

Breaking the phone you plan to demo with is always fun.

Fixing it, even more so!
Just need a keyboard and run 1 command.

2 hours to go debconf23.debconf.org/talks/61

I'm a bit concerned about the frequent power losses at the hotel though :D

I'll add image descriptions later, need to work on my slides :P
and need to go for a swim!

Verifying #ReproducibleBuilds of packages actually in #Debian ... is not exactly a new thing, but is harder than it ought to be, because you need to rebuild with the exact same packages that the original build was built with, and snapshot.debian.org is less than entirely reliable...

So I tried rebuilding packages recently built on buildd.debian.org and it was reasonably successful.

Long-term we will still need some sort of snapshot-like functionality...

We just reached the 14 million milestone of active Fediverse users.
Not a single ad displayed.
Not a single algorithm suggestion.
Nobody pushing hate speech.

Happy milestone, #Fediverse !

Running MM with --debug, invoking `mmcli -G DEBUG` and grabbing some logs that way could perhaps help to close gitlab.freedesktop.org/mobile-

Librem 5 is now $999 (a $300 Savings)! Due primarily to the overwhelming demand for the Librem 5, we were able to lower our component costs and are now able to pass that savings onto new customers.

With the Librem 5 just hitting shipping parity and Purism holding stock for new purchases, it was time for an updated review of the tremendous progress our team has made with PureOS for the Librem 5 and Liberty Phone with Made in USA Electronics.
