System76 doesn't have Mastodan presence yet, so I'll try to put some of the blog posts I've written on here (hey, I can promote the stuff I do, right?!) Check out the latest blog on our new Pop!_OS testing ISOs - http://blog.system76.com/post/173003872608/forthcoming-testing-iso-round-2-more-major-new

I'll be at the @conservancy booth at #LibrePlanet this afternoon after lunch! Come say hi 😄
Cheers for 6 more tech companies joining the original 4 who adopted part of our #PrinciplesOfGPLEnforcement bringing the GPLv3 cure approach to v2 works! https://www.suse.com/c/gpl-enforcement-statement/
Carlos Soriano explains how it is now possible to test development versions of Nautilus as Flatpaks, which are parallel-installable with your system's Nautilus: https://csorianognome.wordpress.com/2018/03/20/full-ci-generated-flatpak-parallel-installation-the-full-flow-for-gnome/
This is in part thanks to @alatiera's work on Gitlab CI. It is tremendously important work; it used to be that asking people to test GNOME meant they had to use jhbuild... which just, nope.
I'm embroiled in a multi-company conversation trying to get my moto z recognized as being under warranty. Buying a phone on amazon prime now apparently is quite difficult to do proof of purchase warranty repair. :(
Sometimes it surprises me what thought processes people come up with. :P
Not much excitement around here, but hey, new GNOME 3.28 release is out, and Builder has a metric crap ton of improvement.
OK, once again trying to make sure that I stay on mastodon. :P
Getting flamed on /r/linux. Love it. If I can drive them crazy thats great. But if I can convert them that is even better.
Man, the people on /r/linux are very deranged people. The things that get people riled up about. Absolutely nothing substantial gets talked about. It's all fire and no heat.
