Audio is working for #PostmarketOS on #Fairphone5! 🎉

Congrats to Alexandre Ferrieux, who achieved this result, and to all contributors of @postmarketOS for providing a truly alternative and independent operating system for mobile! 💚

Now, AFAIK, Fairphone 5 will become the first mobile device where almost everything works with pmOS 🤩

This year brought great improvements to #accessibility in GNOME, including:

• Accessibility from the start on the login screen
• Full accessibility of GNOME Web
• Tons of improvements to Calendar
• Screen reader integration for Notifications

This year we delivered new Digital Wellbeing features for GNOME including Screen Time history and limits, break reminders for movement and eye health, and improved parental controls with Screen Time integration.

This work was coordinated by the GNOME Foundation thanks to a grant from Endless, and implemented by valued community developers @pwithnall and @ignapk with support from design team member @snwh.

@frameworkcomputer Framework's continued commitment to "deliberately create a big tent" is paying off.

More than a month since the last public statement comment from Framework on the subject and they still haven't distanced themselves from this guy.

Is it cool that Linus Torvalds uses Fedora Linux? Yes!

But the really cool thing is to use the Linux distro that works best for you. :)

Having Linux get covered on LTT is such a big win for the open source community as more techies realize there is another way!

But it is pretty neat tho what Linus uses 😎

BorgBackup 1.4.3 was just released!

This is primarily a bugfix release, the Linux and FreeBSD binaries built on Github now have working FUSE support (borg mount).

Our CI testing now includes *BSD and Haiku OS!

Release Release 1.4.3 · borgbackup/borg

borgbackup 1.4.3 borg 1.4.x is kind of a refreshed 1.2 with mostly the same features and behavior, but a few bigger changes that could introduce issues and thus were not suitable for just releasing...

With modern kernels and mature desktop environments (GNOME/KDE), is X11 finally dead for your daily Linux workflow in 2026?

#linux #wayland #x11 #opensource #gnome #kde #fedora #debian #ubuntu #blender #linuxgaming #software #gaming #gamedev #gamingonlinux #games

• Full Wayland (It just works flawlessly) (71%, 160 votes)
• X11 Only (Due to NVIDIA/Gaming issues) (6%, 14 votes)
• X11 Only (Due to Workflow/Legacy apps) (12%, 28 votes)
• Still Switching (No clear preference) (8%, 19 votes)
• What is X11? (I'm new) 👶 (1%, 3 votes)

FreeBSD 15.0 (almost)-RELEASE, using pkgbase, on my Ryzen 9 MiniPC (and compared to openSUSE Tumbleweed):

- Full disk encryption works beautifully via GELI, as usual.

- Installing KDE is easy and it works perfectly on Wayland.

- All my main apps work. Others will run via the Linuxulator or Wine (Linux browsers, WinBox for MikroTik, etc).

- The fan seems more relaxed.

- The system generally feels snappier.

- Native ZFS. I can autosnapshot every 5 minutes. If I try to do this with btrfs - snapshots of the home directory included and quotas enabled - the system hangs while handling them (which is why Tumbleweed doesn’t snapshot home by default).

- The media keys on my keyboard work, but volume control uses huge steps and 30 percent is already extremely loud. This can be fixed. The monitor brightness setting is also a bit off, but I don't care.

- amdgpu works perfectly.

- The wifi card works. I haven’t tested the speed because I immediately installed the realtek-re-kmod driver to use the 2.5 Gbit ethernet connection.

- Suspend doesn’t work. This is a big problem for me. It’s probably more psychological than technical, but I can’t leave the computer powered for hours when I’m not using it. I already have servers running 24/7 here. I even considered putting my Qotom FreeBSD server in a VM. It would probably work, but next summer it might be an issue because temperatures here aren’t low and spinning disks don’t love heat (and I don’t love their noise).

- It’s stable and reliable. I’ve done almost everything and it just works, as expected.

- Some small glitches remain, mostly due to missing configuration or packages (I didn’t tune anything. I just installed it and started using it).

A much smoother experience than a year ago, when I bought it.

Will I keep using FreeBSD on this minipc?
I’m not sure yet, since Tumbleweed works great and the lack of suspend really influences my choice. I'll contact Aymeric and try to offer some help to improve this.

For now, I’ll keep it on an external SSD and switch from time to time, especially when I know I’ll be using the minipc for hours.

#Linux #FreeBSD #Desktop #openSUSE

I love how steadily Linux ecosystem gets better and better over the years. I am at an event where I have some spare time in the back of our booth, so I'm slowly installing my new homelab minipc and I needed to provide connectivity to it. I have two network interfaces on my laptop, so I started remembering how to set up routing and dhcp server on the command line, then I remembered it's a workstation, so I need to take care of NetworkManager to not cause any issues, only to find out that there's actually an option called "Shared to other computers" on the interface in NetworkManager GUI, so I ticked it and ... it just works. It started dhcp server and started masquerading the subnet via default route.

Oh, and you can find the leases in "/var/lib/NetworkManager/dnsmasq-<interface name>.leases"

I'm looking for a remote Rust/Elixir role (EU-friendly timezones, US East is ok).

I have 7 years of #rustlang, 9 years of #elixirlang, 20+ years of #linux.

I have over 20 years of experience as a professional developer, and I've been working remotely for 12 years, during which I helped US and EU companies build reliable software.

On the side, I've been developing #asciinema, the best tool to record and stream your terminal sessions. I talk about it in the context of Rust in this #RustaceanStation interview: rustacean-station.org/episode/…

My current contract ends soon, so this is a great time to talk! I'm open to both full-time roles and short term contracts.

Boost please!

When you use #Linux, you're not just a user of some product. Not just a consumer of a commodity a company churned out with the single goal of profit for shareholders

You're a participant in one of humanities greatest achievements!

Just like the magic of compiling the worlds knowledge in Wikipedia – here we have the same collaboration across space and time, thousands of people of all colors and creeds, choosing to spend time and energy making something for the community! It's beautiful!

It's so cool that I, a complete nobody, can just walk into the heart of some of the most important parts of what makes my and millions of PCs work – and follow along. But coolest: Add my thoughts, and get them taken seriously by the real heroes who create these amazing, collaborative things! Like @sophie, @TheEvilSkeleton, @tbernard, @ebassi, @bragefuglseth and many more!

I am so grateful for all the work – the coding, design, and the communicating.

Telegram, the cloud-based freemium chat, has now implemented strict rate limiting for users of alternative clients, VPNs and virtual phone numbers.
Clients like Nekogram, Nagram, Cherrygram and Unigram may show transmission delays or errors.
If your client had recently become slower, disable the VPN and use a real number.

Wow. Finally, after 21 years, #Firefox 147 will support the #FreeDesktop XDG basedir specification to store the config/data/etc. in the standard locations in your home directory on #Linux, for fresh installations: bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.…

Unfortunately this only applies to clean installs, existing configs are kept in place and not automatically migrated.

Koupě nového stolního počítače
