I've finally just submitted the RFC series for USB3 support on Apple Silicon machines. RFC because the entire Type-C machinery spans multiple subsystems and has quite a few quirks which makes the entire thing rather annoying to deal with and I'm not 100% convinced about the current approach.
This also includes some initial work for DisplayPort-altmode and USB4/Thunderbolt but both will require much more work after this is upstream, so don't get your hopes up just yet.
This application is crazy good, it has helped me go from Windows to Linux at least on the laptop. It's black magic what it does xD

On August 15, 1997, @Migueldeicaza announced the start of GNOME on the GTK mailing list¹. Twenty-eight years later a lot has changed, but we continue to develop and iterate on “a free and complete set of user friendly applications and desktop tools… based entirely on free software.”
To help us continue this work far into the future, we hope you join us in celebrating our birthday by becoming a Friend of GNOME today! 🎂

It's concerning to me that arguably *the* way to get Linux apps, Flathub, has all of its packaging data hosted on GitHub, with seemingly no plans to move away from it. With the direction GitHub is going, I am worried that Flathub will want to move and it'll be too late to do it cleanly.
The context of companies wanting to rip out copyleft from Linux makes the push for Rust rewrites make a lot more sense.

Think Linux desktop market share isn't over 6%? This 15 million-system scan says otherwise

The #Linux desktop has finally taken off.
Think Linux desktop market share isn't over 6%? This 15 million-system scan says otherwise
Lansweeper analyzed millions of consumer desktop OSes using both agentless and agent-based scanning techniques. Here's what it found.Steven Vaughan-Nichols (ZDNET)
Dream come true yesterday!
I got to talk to a packed room of normal (non technical people) at the local library about how important it is to upcycle computers, and how Linux can save the world in this respect.
Thanks to all the people who showed up, supported, donated laptops and listened. We even gave away 9 free laptops at the event.
Library said it was the most well attended event they've had! So will be many more of these in the future. :)

After two weeks of writing, revising, and trying to make everything as digestible as possible, I finally published "GNOME Calendar: A New Era of Accessibility Achieved in 90 Days", where I explain in detail the steps we took to turn GNOME Calendar from an app that was literally unusable with a keyboard and screen reader to an app that is (finally) accessible to keyboard and screen reader users as of GNOME 49!
