Just heard about the #pinephonepro being discontinued due to terrible sales. That's sad to see considering it was one of the few linux first mobile devices. I can kinda understand though given its mid performance, low battery life and relatively high price. I was recently going through it and generating a review for it, ill still finish it so people can see what its like now a days. Hopefully we get more up to day linux first devices in the future that dont cost a fortune.

Guido GüntherCatching a real world and *unexpected* #Cellbroadcast message revealed some minor bugs in #phosh and its mobile settings but those were easy to spotted and fixes will land for 0.49. Overall #ModemManager, #cbd, and #phosh picked the message up as expected (and the channel setting worked as well):

Sebastian KrzyszkowiakI have published the snippet of code that implements a GPU-based ISP with bunch of corrections and encodes video in real time on the Librem 5. Feel free to take parts of it and use in your apps and frameworks... or record your cats 😼

Just did my first ftp test in #zwift via the ramp test (lite). Great to see I’ve made good progress for myself since I first started #cycling just shy of 2 months now. Went from vomiting after 10 mins at 70w average and hr in the 180s to being able to average that same 70w for 2 hrs and averaging hr of 122. My FTP estimate is now 143w compared to the 105w I had it set to before so I’ll see how my future workouts go!
Luca WeissI'm super happy to share, that the #Fairphone (Gen. 6) was just announced, and we've been able to already publish a lot of code for it!
* #postmarketOS support is submitted
* 59(!) patches were sent to bring up upstream #Linux on the SM7635 SoC and enable the device.
* The stock Android source code is public on code.fairphone.com
This has been a lot of work over the last couple of months so it's awesome to finally be able to share it!
the change has been merged into mesa upstream! Should be as simple to test now as just installing mesa-git. Important to note on aur the mesa-git package does not include panfrost by default so you will need to enable it in the PKGBUILD
Huge performance buff incoming for panfrost devices thanks to some #mntreform users. They tested with rk3588 on the reform pocket and got 3x the overall motionmark score. For me I tested on the #pinetab2 and got an overall 2x and some of the individual tests had a massive improvement. They submitted the MR upstream to mesa so it should hopefully be merged in soon especially since its a small change.

Since I started my #fitness journey and moving more to #mobilelinux I needed a way to track my HR during a cycling session at the gym. #polar has a nice HR sensor, H10, that someone supports really well in python. I bought one on ebay for cheap and created a simple tracking app. This lets me take any of my #linux phones to the gym and connect to my earbuds and HR sensor over bluetooth and complete and log my workout. Useful until bluetooth pass through to android.

And by installing the experimental versions of the mesa Vulkan package:
sudo apt -t experimental install mesa-vulkan-drivers
