Charon 1.8.0 changes the default tile size from 256 to 512:

While this is mostly a lateral move, it simplifies the offline tile archive generation. Instead of 8+ hours of requesting tiles from a server, I can now render 75k+ tiles locally in under 10 minutes. This should make it easier to fulfill offline tile addition requests.

Apparently the Fairphone 5 microphone not working with automatic wireguard call profile switching was just a race condition with q6voiced:

This means I now have calls working at a usable level with great quality on the Fairphone 5.

Since ArchLinux users must love the bleeding edge, I'm shipping this as default with my packages, so it should work out of the box going forward:

Workaround for race condition with wireplumber script (#3) · Issues · postmarketOS / q6voiced · GitLab

Wireplumber has a script to automatically switch to the Voice Call UCM profile if available. This is necessary on the Fairphone 5 for example to get call...

Kumo 1.8.1 fixes a couple bugs that probably went unnoticed by everyone but me. Baby steps.

Maybe it's time to get calls working on my Fairphone 5…

First time doing a release through SourceHut, seems like I should put the changelog in the tag's message.

After about 3 hours, I'm finally done migrating all Catacomb projects over from GitHub to SourceHut:

https://sr.ht/~undeadleech/catacomb

I was surprised to realize that GitHub did not automatically subscribe me to many of my own projects, finding some open issues in the process.

Didn't think it was going to take this long, but there's been a lot of projects piling up. If someone finds some old GitHub links, please let me know.
