Purple is my natural hair color. I have strong opinions about software and sometime I even get to make them reality. Same for the state of the world in general, but I have a lot less influence there.

Professionally: Linux Graphics Plumbing for Qubes OS. Unprofessionally: aarch64laptops, postmarketOS, lots of random projects, local activism/politics.

@kbity exactly how i imagined germany to be
part of a german road safety campaign that signposts people to find a suitable place to masturbate, rather than risking doing it behind the wheel
@hbons coool, whenever i get around to app making rather than kernel stuff i'll be sure to commission icons from you (:
@ebassi doogle grive
@mntmn oh oof usb is quite a different situation, no ipa there
@pikhq of course.… if it wasn't all a huge brute-force job these companies wouldn't've needed to buy up the entire world's DRAM and NAND flash supply!!

@mntmn i made a recent post about push, definitely will need to work on it soon. tl;dr i don't think the coalescing into a single source is a big deal, and it doesn't fit into the p2p-all-the-things vision of the future.

so yea if i confirm that ipa wakeup already works we'll be able to have a "wakeups only when push arrives because the only open connections are push ones lol" thing, until someone figures out ipa filters to make it better

@mntmn yes, you just tell the rtc (via a CLOCK_*_ALARM timerfd and linux just does it, but we'll have to make a dbus api because that's protected by linux capabilities which are a nightmare) and it pings the wake irq when it's time.

wrt mobile connection, the qcom IPA driver already sets its irq as a wake irq, so incoming data from modem should wake the system. well I haven't confirmed that it does for real but I am seeing odd wakeups with no irq reason lol. but we're missing filters support.

@vesto this one has a lidar and persistent maps!! and valetudo docs still call it kinda old gen haha

(i mean it is armv7 but whatever i have so many mainlining devices already that OS level tinkering on a vacuum is out lol)

since I am being visible, I need a job, will do basically anything in tech (except AI or python). ops, dev, design, architecture, admin, compliance (ruuuusty tho), mentoring, frontend, backend, databases, networking, scale out, scale up, right sizing, cloud migration, on prem/colo migration, I can talk to your furries and c-suite, I can bully sales, and I am a women so you can pay me 81% what you would for a man, I'm a steal!

remote or fully masked @ work place, trans safe travel ok
