Heads up for edge users:
We've switched to Plymouth for displaying the boot splash! This allows screen rotation to work, and to toggle between splash and boot logs by pressing ESC on devices with a keyboard, or the power button 🔌 on phones and tablets.

wondered why vscode was running like total shit after a recent update, then it popped up telling me the extension host crashed and offered to do an extension bisect so im like sure why not
i go through picking can/can't reproduce just based on vibes of how shit it was running
i have 116 extensions installed and THIS was the end result of that, joker moment of a fucking generation. fuck microsoft
(if you reply to this telling me to not use vscode i will probably block you, yes that includes suggesting codium or whatever. i wish this wasn't the workflow i ended up with but it is and now isn't the time for me to switch)
Update: not available
I'm donating #Pixel3 with installed #PostmarketOS #Phosh edge. It helps me open #mobileLinux world and now I prefer a more modern hardware.
I'd be happy to post it to someone who needs it as long it's in the EU. No payment needed.
You can also come collect it in #Helsinki

Thank you for the support. I'm going to send the phone to Hamburg. Happy coding!

lol, lmao?? this AI generated website makes me wanna headbutt a wall but the CVE seems real(?), update your kernels folks
the part that really grinds my gears is why is the poc written in the most disgusting possible python syntax?? are we optimising for size here?
absolutely deranged ad on reddit, pay to have this website display your customised "frame"(?) for a minute of the day?? please politely fuck off lmao
it's basically modelled on the stock market, buy a minute now for $1 and maybe if you're lucky and the company pop off you can sell it later and make a profit
