Join me and The Citizens in calling for a full Parliamentary debate on Palantir’s use in UK services. Kier Starmer rightly condemns Trump's insults of UK soldiers but at the same time signs deal with Trump's chum Peter Thiel - Thiel the libertarian billionaire whose Palantir software is used by ICE to target their victims. 'At a glance, Palantir sells software. In practice, it provides government with the infrastructure to monitor, investigate and target people at scale.' Palantir were handed a £240 million contract by the Ministry of Defence - with no parliamentary debate or competitive tender. They already have a £330 million contract with the NHS.

Keeping Your Android Secure and Snappy: Exploring GrapheneOS and LineageOS

Join Roller Angel for a practical dive into alternative Android operating systems that can breathe new life into your devices and extend their longevity. Roller runs GrapheneOS on a Pixel 8 for hardened privacy and security, and LineageOS on an older Pixel 4 to keep it current and fast long after official updates ended.

Also, we’ll be doing a short presentation on a Unix/Linux topic. This month we’ll be talking about the readline library. It’s not really a command but it’s included in many of the utilities you use.

Soy un fiel defensor de #UbuntuTouch, pero hoy tuve un mal sabor de boca 😕. No pude hacer algo tan simple como copiar‑pegar; parece que hay un límite de caracteres y, solo en ciertas apps, el botón de “pegar” o “copiar” aparece diminuto, casi imposible de usar. ¡Deberían arreglarlo! #UX #OpenSource #Linux #MobileOS #Tech #BugReport #Feedback #UI #Design #Community #FreeSoftware #AndroidAlternative #OpenSourceLove 🚀 @ubports @ubuntu

is there any powerful single-board computers that could easily be turned into a mobile device?

it looks as if the jolla company is thinking about creating a new phone and it is asking the users what they'd prefer.

the poll is about 12 days old now but prhps some fans of SailfishOs still want to participate. You need a login to the forum to participate (i think)

#^Next gen Jolla Phone



Hi there,  As noted in the previous community meeting, we’d like to define the next gen Jolla Phone together with the community.  Now, we’ve been offered access to a good quality modern 5G smartphone platform and we’d love to hear everyone’s opinion on the key configuration specifications and also to get a feeling of the potential demand for such a product.  To make the next gen Jolla Phone commercially viable we estimate that we should get in minimum 2,000 pre-orders so we can start the project...
