We had bad mobile reception on Saturday, so I set up my @furilabs #flx1s as a hotspot. Patent pending.

#vulkan coming to a #halium phone near you! Looks like the #FuriLabs and #UbuntuTouch folks have been hard at work getting vulkan to a usable state.

This opens up all the #wayland vulkan applications that seem to have problems related to GLES.

Should be enabled soon:tm: to the general audience, do note it only works with wayland and not x11.

Here's a short video of the #FLX1 running vkcube and godot benchmarks all running in vulkan!

I've gone through and finally wrote up my review on the #furilabs #FLX1s and shared my thoughts about it. Just in time for it to be sold out and for the #FLX1s+ to take its place lol. Luckily most of it should still apply except for some of the QA issues and the camera since everything else is still the same. Let me know what you guys think! The phone is really starting to shape up well with some good news coming up in the next update.

And you can still use it for those things. But these days Plex also offers ad-supported TV & movie streaming, and subscription services that let you stream your personal media collection over the internet (so you can watch […]
