@Blort @as400 @vacuumbeef @droidian @postmarketOS Aha, so Droidian.... https://devices.droidian.org/ I did not know about that one before. It has libhybris inside, AFAICT, so it is not really too interesting to me... But good to know it exists.

@jmlich BangleJS2 is missing, and that's the important watch, as it has halfways-usable "operating system". If you had those, you'd forget about the others. (OTOH that would be bad for Linux-watch compatibility...)

@neil Better question is... why are we measuring diagonal and not area? That leads to people exploiting it with very wide screens.

@as400 @droidian @vacuumbeef @Blort Wow, what? Someone got camera supported on OnePlus6? I should really get that hw. And it is not listed as supported on https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Devices . Someone should fix that, too.

@itsmeholland @JessTheUnstill Feel free to travel to Russia, and say that you don't like the war. Heck, maybe even holding blank paper will be enough. You'll quickly learn difference between censorship and not spreading content. Yes, there's difference between corporations and governments.

@JessTheUnstill I'm sure there are pictures of consenting adults you'd rather not see, plus some of those pictures are illegal to distribute in many jurisdiction. So is Nazi propaganda, but, it may be different jurisdiction. Oh and ... "censorship" is when you go to jail for saying something. Platform choosing not to distribute content is something else.

@martijnbraam @okias So i have this. https://gitlab.com/tui/debayer-gpu It debayers at 7MPix/sec. I guess I'm learning a lot about GPUs, but I hoped for a bit better performance. Ouch and it mirrors the image, but that's detail.

@okias I don't think I actually want Rust for this. And I don't think I need OpenCL either, AFAICT glsl 1.0 should be enough for me.

I'd like to do command-line application that uses GPU to do some some computation with graphics. (Debayer, maybe more). Need it to work on old systems (Debian 11, PinePhone). What libraries/frameworks should I look at?

@hnygd @as400 @sonny @dperson @cas @postmarketOS @Fairphone @PINE64 FP5 may be the future as vendor is putting resources into it. But I'm afraid it is "future" at this point.

@as400 @sonny @dperson @hnygd @cas You would not be happy with Librem 5, I'm afraid. So you moved from working PinePhone to more experimental OP6. Well, of course it is broken :-). Fix it...

@as400 @cas @dperson @hnygd @sonny There's plan and we have such devices. "PinePhone" is safest one. Then there's PinePhone Pro, Librem 5, OnePlus 6, AFIACT. That's rather short list. Rest are ... "here be dragons". Sounds like you want PinePhone :-).

@amaditalks Well, at least you can get vaccines to reduce COVID risks. But I'm afraid COVID is not the only infection that spreads through air, and yes, it would be nice if ill people stayed separated, realistically I'm afraid we are back to 2018 situation basically...

@amaditalks Huh? So what do you propose? Eradicating COVID was not an option once it spread out of first city in China, so yes, we have to live with it. At least vaccines are now available. Is the post 4 years too late?

@marcan Well. I don't think they broke the Turing test, yet. Yes, it is significant progress in breaking Turing test. (And it may be useful google replacement). Problem is we don't actually understand what "inteligence" is. GPT3 is not it, and I don't think GPT5 will be, but maybe GPT17 will be?

@gregorni Rust / Gtk. Ok, I may have to re-evaluate. Last time I checked basically all good features of Rust were gone with GUI integration, and you was left in very strange language with C-like safety.

Reply to @1br0wn@eupolicy.social
@1br0wn Yep. Step in right direction, and Google should not have had the data in the first place, but now telcos have similar data and it is quite hard to do anything about that. I with phones had "lock me to given cell" mode, so I could limit the information I'm giving back to telco, but that was last possible with Nokia 5110 or so :-(. Should be doable with custom GSM firmware, but....
