Single sealed #pinetime running open firmware InfinityTime is now available for $26.99.
Do folks really use email on their phones in 2020? I'm very tempted to remove email from my phone entirely, it's just not that useful and is often more of a distraction / source of anxiety than I prefer.

oh my gods. they literally have no shame about this.
GitHub Support just straight up confirmed in an email that yes, they used all public GitHub code, for Codex/Copilot regardless of license.
I wrote some (updated) thoughts on the #Librem5 and #Pinephone! A ton has changed and gotten slightly better or worse since six months ago. The mobile Linux movement is really exciting! https://thatgeoguy.ca/blog/2021/06/22/Librem-5-Evergreen-vs-Pinephone/

RIGHT! Itโs beta, but we have a Matrix bridge up for @liberachat@twitter.com: you can connect to #foo:http://libera.chat where #foo is the channel. Huge thanks to the team for letting us expose the network on Matrix! We are also working through fixing the bridge bug backlog :)

It is as if we didn't already have a reason to leave, Andrew Lee wanted to give us one more... https://github.com/freenode/web-7.0/pull/513/files
My Pixel 3 went into a very strange bootloop today. Had I had a physical SIM, I probably would already have switched it over to my Pinephone.
I feel like most phones have tricked us into believing they are always hyper reliable. However, when they aren't it comes back to bite us bad.
I will take this episode as a lesson to have backups for all my 2FA.

"Excellent wine, very rich and creamy."
"Sir, you're drinking a glass of milk."
Man, Haruki Murakami's โMen without womenโ consistently reflects me in so many characters. I am saddened that I did not discover this book years prior.

Months later and I still prefer the Pinephone with @ubports to both other distros and also the Librem 5. I need to do a full examination of the KDE plasma offerings soon...

@thatgeoguy I've self hosted my email for so long I don't fully appreciate how sucky email can be, though I have a bit of an idea having been forced to use gmail service at my current employer.
Maybe the future of email is to think of what we have as a suite of protocols and radically rethink the applications that use it, like what Delta Chat did.
