I've given up on trying to learn #rust. It's just not for me, my brain cannot parse it.

Somewhat recently I switched to using the FLX1s Linux phone (from an Android phone).

The FLX1s is a privacy oriented phone, that is an open platform, built on open-source software, where I am in control of it.

One thing that I find makes using it better […]

I challenge you to show me something more cursed than Geographic Information System file formats. I know at least a hundred different ones, most have subvariants and can encode data in 9000 ways. Some even store each dataset as a collection of files and if […]

Today I handed my @furilabs #flx1 running #phosh and #gnome to an assistant on a ferry to get the paid WiFi activated. I expected to have to explain the whole OS, but she required literally zero help. Navigating phosh, disabling/activating airplane mode and WiFi, opening and checking the WiFi […]

Today we learned, through the pain of quickly losing a couple of sandwiches, that the Gran Canaria Giant Lizard is neither rare nor shy nor a vegetarian

Thanks to @Logical_Error these are using mainline kernels now (with zero patches on top!). Read more in the edge blog post […]

…speaking of new devices. @furilabs completed manufacturing of their FLX1s which (as their FLX1) uses #phosh as default UI 🥳 (these are Halium, not mainline Linux based):

FLX1s Update #2
We’re excited to share that **manufacturing for the FuriPhone FLX1s has been completed**. Our team has been hard at work in China over the past few weeks, refining both hardware and software to ensure everything meets our standards for quality and performance. While the production phase is now behind us, we’re currently focused on finalizing FuriOS, optimizing drivers, polishing the user experience, and making sure every component works seamlessly on the new hardware. Once this final round of testing and optimization is complete, we’ll be preparing the official FuriOS installation images for release. **Shipping Timeline** The question on everyone’s mind: **“When are you shipping the darn things?”** The honest answer is that while manufacturing is complete, we’re still hard at work on the final integration of FuriOS with the FLX1s hardware. This stage is all about polishing performance, refining system stability, and ensuring that every feature works flawlessly out of the box. We’re also coordinating the final logistics and software wrap-up in parallel. Our current estimate is that devices will leave the factory in about three weeks, which aligns with the completion of the remaining software work. Around that same time, units should begin arriving at our warehouse and from there, shipping to customers will begin shortly after.

Didn't know the Danish muppet who believes privacy is not a fundamental human right and really wants us to implement #chatcontrol in the #eu is actually called Peter Hummelgaard Stalinsen

Important difference:

#grokipedia contains the average of what a random chatbot scooped up on the Internet.

Warum scheint es eigentlich so wenige Diskussionen über die Kündigungsbedingungen des #Deutschlandticket zu geben?

Man kann es weiterhin nur bis zum 10. eines Monats kündigen. Wer zwischendurch einige Fahrten machen möchte, aber nach dem 10. einsteigt - das sind immerhin zwei Dritteln der Tage […]

"AI" still has no place in my life. Not that I don't use any chatbots or image/video/code generators, I don't seem to get any of the "AI Slop" people are talking about. Not even on YouTube. It's a non-issue for me, like online ads. I wonder what I am doing wrong.

🇪🇺 EU diplomats discussed #chatcontrol today. Result: No majority, so the vote planned for next week will be called off. https://orf.at/stories/3407810/
A huge success in our fight for freedom!🎉💪
Next goal: No suspicionless scanning, not even on a voluntary basis!

In case you wonder why there are no more updates coming in: The nightly package builds mentioned in https://phosh.mobi/posts/phosh-nightly/ switched from being Debian Trixie based to Debian Forky. The new suite is called `forky-nightly`.

Phosh Nightly Package Builds
Tightening the feedback loop Link to heading One thing we notice ever so often is that although Phosh’s source code is publicly available and upcoming changes are open for review the feedback loop between changes being made to the development branch and users noticing the change can still be quiet long. This can be problematic as we ideally want to catch a regression or broken use case triggered by a change on the development branch (aka main) before the general availability of a new version.

@Tuba is such a nice Mastodon client. It's really growing on me. I just wish you could combine several hashtags in a single timeline, like yo can do on Tusky or Phanpy.
