I have been seeing folks talk about `jj` alot lately, I didn't know it was "made by google" at all, I guess the largest contributor is at google but others are not and its oss, but keeping track of who is paying for what is one of those things that feels impossible and also important […]

Is there a fedi app thats specifically designed for e-ink? I guess also compatible with Android 4.4

excited to learn that this random `tolino` ereader I was given a while ago is actually running shitty android that I can side load apps onto. I had expected it to be running something more custom and that it would have needed a whole new firmware to be written or something. I didn't even realize […]

Just left day two of @linuxappsummit.bsky.social... really seems like the format of presentations without more space for social interaction doesn't make sense. The point of these in person events is to get people to talk to eachother and for that you need a more casual framing.

Headed back to day two of ​@[email protected] and its a few blocks away from check point charlie (which I have spent almost zero time even though I live in Berlin) and this section of the wall is on display and they thank Nestlé for moving it. Yes that Nestlé […] [Original post on social.wake.st]
