If anyone is considering blaming those in LA for confronting ICE for the rise in violence, I strongly recommend reconsidering your position.
This *is* the plan. It has always been the plan to rachet up ICE violence until that are finally confronted.
Now is the time to support those on the front lines resisting the government troops who are, quite literally, rounding up folks and sending them to concentration camps*.
📢 Hello, community.
We've received a lot of feedback on the Liberux NEXX — thank you for your honest input.
Thanks to Ernesto at Ecaman and his modular design (with replaceable eMMC, modem, and RAM), we're working on a more affordable version.
💡 After talking with our suppliers, we could offer an entry-level version with these specs, while still keeping the current version:
🔧 Specs:
· LTE
· 128 GB eMMC
· 16 GB RAM
💶 Price: €890
We’d love to hear your thoughts on this idea! 💬
Every Linux Podcast Recipe:
- A couple of folks who's main point is that they use "Linux ™️" daily for a couple of years
- They stumble upon real shortcoming/issue with system
- They talk about it and try to explain it based on the knowledge they have accumulated over the years and severe case of Dunning-Kruger
- Confidently arrive at the most wrong take you could mathematically come up with about why something happens
- Keep talking authoritatively about systems you actually know nothing about

#postmarketOS is gonna be so awesome once you can actually factory reset your device. not for that logic alone but because of what it implies about the underlying system design
i've done this rant before but just consider how much more solid your system will be when all your changes are explicitly handled on top of the base system with robust mechanisms for testing system changes, being able to revert them back (at the bootloader level).
if we do this right, it should mean that once you install postmarketos on your Android device you should never have to interact with fastboot again, you'll always have a working system to jump back to with A/B updates (unless you really mess up).
The user benefits are awesome too (see Lennarts thread), but as a distro that encourages tinkerers im way more interested in all the ways we can make development easier whether you're working on the kernel, initramfs, middleware or UI and THIS is how we do it

… (i.e. lots of similar systems running the same OS image), but equally on "pet" style installs (i.e. your personal device).
Or to turn this around, a system that doesn't come with a clean, well defined mechanism to reset it fully, erase all unauthenticated data and return it to a vendor image without any local modifications, is highly problematic I believe.
Now you might say: "I can always reinstall my Linux" and start from scratch. And to some point you are right even.
U-Boot now runs on the Pixel 3a! Even the integrated eMMC works :D
