Isn't Signald generally broken right now? I think the Matrix bridge is being rewritten with another backend or so.

I see... business as usual: the EU shooting itself in the foot and removing the one thing they actually have leverage in 🤦

Refusing to cooperate with the leftist parties, putting a right-wing PM in place and being dependant on extreme right wing votes for many of his recent proposals (because he refuses to cooperate with the left parties). Basically he is doing everything the Front National needs to win next time.

Yes from centrists like Macron that pave the way for the extreme right to take over soon 🤦

 

Still only on dev channel, but hardware support looks great.

Better contribute to Photon, which Tesseract was forked from originally.

They had plans for it and afaik even got a NLnet grant, but life got in the way, so it is likely not going to happen soon.

There is also KeyOxide with solves part of it via cryptographic verification and I believe some fediverse platforms already support it: https://codeberg.org/keyoxide

To me it lately sounds like Canadians do need to worry a bit about "freedom" being brought to them.

Sounds quite good, but just use regular Debian, ubuntu isn't any better and annoying with their Snap BS.

I guess i need some kind of VPN for a secure use?

You can set up a Wireguard VPN.

Major downgrade seems to be the lack of USB3 and display out over USB-C that both the FP4&5 have. Imho this limits the use-case as a linux phone massively.

The argument about possible threats is good, but why this means we need to increase defense spending is completely unexplained.

Europe already vastly outspends Russia on defense, and for example Spain buying more Leopard 2 tanks just to have them rot in their baracks is not helping at all.

We need to get more efficient in defense spending and we need to invest in defensive weapons that can be easily moved where they are actually needed. Better locally produced anti-air defense, especially ones cheap enough to work against drone swarms are probably also needed.

But none of that needs 5% of GDP. We could probably significantly reduce current defense spending and still end up with an more effective deterrent against Russia.

Our infrastructure and social services are already massively underfunded. More than doubling defense spending will come at a cost to those services, especially with right wing governments in power everywhere. And the result of that is just as much if not more of a threat to our values and the cohesion of the EU than Russia.

 

Just some fun with fast trains and electronic music.
