"The Art and Secrets of #Karambola" - a digital 92-page #artbook heavily illustrated with yet unpublished sketches, drawings, paintings and locations from the game - is now out!
Agata (@holypangolin) reveals her thoughts on the curious fruity characters’ personalities and backstories, as well as some difficult decisions she had to make during the design process.

The recording of my #FOSDEM talk - a dive into a bug in USB 2.0 and the problem of spontaneous modem resets that used to be experienced on the #Librem5 is now available to watch: https://fosdem.org/2024/schedule/event/fosdem-2024-3200-universal-serial-bug-a-tale-of-spontaneous-modem-resets/ #linuxmobile #mobilelinux #usb #fosdem24 #fosdem2024 #fossonmobile #mobile #linux
The newest game I've been working on, ODGŁOS, is finally available to play! A cute owl, the history of electronic music, shapeshifting snakes and intergalactic journeys inside the Polish Radio Experimental Studio - all in a stop-motion interactive story :) You'll need a browser, headphones and 30 minutes to spare. Have fun!

#Introduction time!
My name is dos; some call me Sebastian. I made dozens of small silly video #games and some slightly less small ones too. I'm one half of @holypangolin studio. Sometimes I pretend to be a musician, but don't get fooled. I'm also a living encyclopedia on a Polish rock band "Perfect". Trams are cooler than trains. The more caramel, the better. I've been using GNU/#Linux on #mobile phones for ages, which led me to work with @purism on the Librem 5. btw I use Arch, but I ❤️ Debian!
Now moving onto the trixie-based PureOS 12 "dawn", which should become usable by early adopters in the coming months 🎉
Thank you for your support and patience on the way there 🤗
While it's still not exactly on the bleeding edge, it's a significant step forward. Lots of infrastructural blockers that prevented further development have been resolved in the process, and even though the base isn't very fresh, there's quite a bit of fresh work included too. I'd say the end result may even be more polished in some areas than in other up-to-date distros now (with a strong accent on "some areas", obviously, as they're clearly ahead in some others!)
Better late than never: PureOS 11 (crimson) is finally out, catching up with Debian 12 (bookworm) just in time for when bullseye/byzantium lose their extended security support next month. If you're still on byzantium, update ASAP! It's a solid improvement over both byzantium and plain bookworm. 🧵

For a long time I've been intrigued by #Epiphany taking 5 to 20 seconds to load any website on startup or in Incognito Mode, and started profiling and testing a bunch of configurations to report a bug.
It turned out to be 2 bugs in 1 
* The adblocker (and similar features) makes things slower
: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/-/work_items/2880#note_2766101
* WebKitGTK is doing some shenanigans with the system's fonts: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=315135

An old friend came to visit!
One of those photos was shot on a Canon SX740 HS and other on a Librem 5.
I am making a 3D bird-thought from my game “Karambola”.
It’s a fun crossover between the world of my games and my stop-motion movie made of pencils.
I think I’m halfway done. I still need a beak, eyes, a mechanism to make it fly, and a mini bird-thought inside it :>
So, a few more days.
And why, you ask?
Of course because I should be doing something else :D
dEQP-GLES3, old etnaviv compiler vs new one:
+6,140 passes, −3,004 crashes. 🚀
And now for something completely different... I've never shared these before: Aquaman stickers made for some competition. Didn't win (was it too "woke" lol) and never made it to the public, so I have my own personal stickers now. I'm not a big fan of Aquaman movies (the first one was soooo boring), but the stickers are fun 🌈💧🦈
BREAKING: We have a guest who appears to be into staring contests. Awaiting results

The new version of Millipixels, now in crimson-updates-proposed, significantly improves the way photos are developed by default. No need to develop the RAWs on your own to get rid of that greenish retro look anymore. Time to update and show off your cats on the fedi 😺

Remember the Linux VM thing that Android dev tools now have? The tech behind it is the peak of using remote attestation to prevent you from controlling or inspecting what runs on your device. And another feature that apps will use to refuse to work on rooted devices.
You can only run kernel images signed by Google or an approved OEM with the virtualization API (enforced at the guest firmware level which is signed and verified by the host OS).
Google lists a use case as running a malware classifier on your device while preventing you from reverse engineering the algorithm. They list other vendors use cases as running some vague client risk assessment models.
Remember the proposed laws about enforcing client side scanning of all sent messages? This is the perfect plumbing for that.
We are losing the war on generalized computing.
