Google has released the source code for PebbleOS, the operating system behind the now dead Pebble smartwatch.
This will bring more life to older Pebble watches and perhaps new watches powered by it in the future. Credit where credit is due I guess.

@RaccoonForFriendica We finally did it: we got access to the production channel on Google Play! A big and heartfelt "thank you" to all those who participated in the closed test program, without you this would have been impossible! 🦝❤️
The latest beta has been promoted to the "open testing" track, so that now everyone can become a tester and install the latest beta, which is a preview of the next stable release.
I'll wait until I improve notification support, so probably there is another month or so to wait. Keep an eye on the issue tracker to know what I'm working on, just in case 😉
To try the app, you can become a tester using this invitation link.
Your feedback is important, and now you'll have Google Play's reviews as an additional way to express your opinion. Let me know what you think and always #livefasteattrash

1. Open a Linux terminal.
2. Type the following command:
watch -d -n 1 sensors
3. This command displays CPU, GPU, Wi-Fi, NVMe SSD, and HDD temperature data in real time. The -d option highlights the differences between updates, and the -n 1 option sets the interval to 1 second, running the sensors command every second. See cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-linux-… for more info.

I love open source, and I want young people to know there’s a career path outside of #FAANG. Open source can be financially sustainable—it just gets super hard if one of your key goals is making your investors even richer. #Conversations_im is about the same age as #Matrix. I never took VC funding, and I’m doing fine.

just discovered some very cool new projects:
git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/b…
aerogramme.deuxfleurs.fr/
aerogramme is a proxy for imap and caldav that offers encryption and some security guarantees
bagage is webdav with an s3 backend
this is all based on garage which works great on commodity hardware. you could rent a $5/mo/tb vps from hosthatch and have decently good secure, open source, cloud storage of all the above

Bagage is the bridge between our users and garage, it enables them to synchronize files that matter for them from their computer to garage through WebDAVGitea: git with a cup of coffee
