First meeting IRL since #FOSDEM 2020 :)

We just released #coreboot 4.16. Check out the release notes here https://doc.coreboot.org/releases/coreboot-4.16-relnotes.html #firmware #opensource #hardware

so someone uploaded a .apk package to the main #postmarketOS, with instructions to use the "--allow-untrusted" flag to install it. That flag disables package signing in apk, which is *really* bad idea.

Turns out, this package that was posted seems like it was almost certainly malware.

#Gitea is joining the fediverse 🎉 We can now announce we've been accepted into the #NLnet funding round that we applied to. https://nlnet.nl/project/Gitea/

Thank you to @NGIZero @dachary @forgefriends and so many others for getting us to this point.

We are very much looking forward to many wonderful things that federation within forges can support.

Today, I had some fun connecting a #MCP23008 I/O expander to the #pogopins of my #pinephone.

NEW KEYBOARD!

I expect to be able to recommend the Unicomp New M after a week or two of using it. Loud, but feels nice. Keycaps are very easy to replace and they offer a number of replacement sets. The "Linux Tux" set I got includes, in addition to the Tux keys, an Esc key that fits in the left-Super spot, as well as reversed Ctrl and Caps Lock keys and a gray ~ ` key; I didn't use any of these.

Tadaa, a #pinenote showing its own schematics. It seems like the size of the pages of schematics is almost perfect for this.

I just upgrade to biktorgj's FOSS modem firmware and documented the steps here: https://sspaeth.de/2021/08/flashing-the-foss-modem-firmware-on-the-pinephone/ Calls/SMS/data work fine. Incoming calls ring fast! Great work biktorgj (https://github.com/Biktorgj)

Many ARM architecture devices use "Mali" GPUs. Debian 11 now supports them with the free software Panfrost and Lima drivers https://wiki.debian.org/PanfrostLima #NewInDebianBullseye #ReleasingDebianBullseye

bullseye is the first Debian release providing a Linux kernel which has support for the exFAT filesystem, and defaults to using it for mounting exFAT filesystems #NewInDebianBullseye #ReleasingDebianBullseye
