Just use android on Linux: waydroid

The immutable data store is provided by IPFS and allows anyone authorised to retrieve cipher text from its hash through any Peergos node

Built on top of IPFS. Finally something useful built with IPFS. Although that means it’s going to require a virtual filesystem to access stuff. Reading on, yes that’s WebDAV.

Interesting. It also uses TOR for transmitting share requests.

I’m… Intrigued, but IPFS is my biggest problem. Ever time it was used on my system it was a massive resource hog. It would kill a phone battery right quick.

Anyway, thanks for sharing. This will end up I’m my bookmarks for when there’s time to test something again. If you have a github account,do add this to one of those “awesome IPFS” lists floating around. It could help.

Cheers

Sigh… Openscience on proprietary platforms.

Well, at least they got off of Elsevier and WoS, butthere seems to be a lot of work left to be done. Not least how rebuilding a broken system doesn’t solve the systemic problems that exist. Moving away from closed source systems is great, no doubt. I just hope it won’t lead to the same system being built just with opensource. Instead of being shackled in the dark it might end up being public shackles.

Pushover licenses show how much influence big tech companies have over opensource. It’s in their interest of promote these licenses.

Another place where Europe needs to throw off the US shackles. Import and exporting goods is not a problem, but allowing one country to monopolise your critical infrastructure is a decision that’s beyond stupid. Sometimes the decision is forced, but once there is power to eject the monopoly and the decision is made not to, that’s incredibly stupid.

The Trump administrations showing their true colors has been the eye opener the world needed.

What a surprise. I makes me think of the US women treating Eastern Asian women who married western men like whores, victims, or gold-diggers. Many people think about the world locally, not internationally. They apply their ways of thinking to the rest of the world and have trouble understanding that what is normal for me isn’t normal for you (and vice versa). They have trouble understanding that things aren’t always as they seem and making a summary judgement about a person from a short slice of their life, which they can interpret wrong, does not a person make.

What do you mean by better?

A good friend’s grandma was missing her friends and I suggested getting her online so that she could meet other people while gaming, but the idea was rejected as she had enough trouble fighting out WhatsApp. Her daughters had to call her on Google Messenger until it was killed.

She finally died of cancer but was very happy while doing it because of the relief. No more pain, no more loneliness. I wish we could introduce gaming to more seniors. It might make their life more interesting. Then could even have a Gray League and stream themselves to other aging people.

I bet that if the people born between after 1980 get to retire, gaming will be pretty normal. Unless social media has eaten away at their brains too much. Or something greater comes along like brain to computer interfaces.

How are people still on xitter? Is this dude a nazi?

I don’t think we will ever be able to prove nor disprove intelligent design. We simply do know how much we don’t know and it is therefore impossible to rule out or confirm that. It also creates the paradox of if a creator existed, they’d have to exist in something which then begs the question whether they have a creator, which could easily enter infinite recursion.

As for the number of parameters that make habitable universes possible, we think to have found 26 but who knows how many actually exist. He pointed out the electric dipole moment of a neutron having no bearing on habitability, but how can he know that to be true 100%? It’s like how we believed our DNA was 98% junk only to find out it does have a function.

I like the thought experiments but they stay just that, thought experiments - at least until they can be tested.

26 dimensions?

Yep, GrayJay is it. They do have to use embedded chromium and did so within a C# application, which I cannot understand, but it does work well. They have a flatpak which works on all my desktops.

OP seems to be talking about high level institutions collaborating with the opensource community to make linux phones a reality. Those aren’t “normal people” but politicians and their ilk. They should be thinking different than the average consoomer i.e not “oh it’s shiny and popular, fuck the price”.

Interesting, but I’m curious about how it comlaresbto other technologies in cost, maintenance, and efficiency. There are molten salt batteries being tested as well as hydrogen fuel cells, even heated concrete and flywheels.

These seem simple but that can hide complex problems.

Ai still needs them to mindlessly make a robot factory with AI to print AI. I’m sure it’ll be safe

We’d need to provide a reason for them to want a Linux phone. What use could a politician have for such a phone? We need to find good, strong reasons for it.

Sovereignty is the big thing right now. Supply chain attacks too.

Is there maybe a cost projection we could provide?

But also, how can it tir into other goals? If it’s just disconnected from everything, it probably won’t get much steam. Crosscutting concerns have to be tackled with a Linux phone. Concerns that’s are tangible and not philosophical or ethical.

The “lib snowflake” screamers and “cancel culture” whiners crying about a game showing the KKK negatively is just too good.

The tragedy of the “commons”.

Hopefully these won’t end up in the ukraine war on the side of Russia 😐

The US and the West at large just thought China would stay that nice exploitable country for cheap labor forever. Their plans never adjusted to either find an alternative or move back production.

Capitalists praise “the power of the market” for being agile and whatnot, but companies (and many Western countries are being run by companies) target costs optimisation at all costs. They are like AIs with a bias for it and hyper-specialise for it. The only moves companies have are “buy the competitor” and for countries it’s just protectionism until war.

This isn’t praise for China throwing the majority of their citizens into the machine as cheap labor for Western companies, more a critique of the West’s tunnel vision. We will reap what we sowed.
