Riding horses, hacking computers, phones and smartwatch.

This is some bs. If AOSP development is made less publicly accessible it does NOT " simplify things for developers" but rather it hinders it for de-googled privacy respecting ROMs and their device ports. The need for continued and ramped up efforts developing alternative mobile OS's, like Ubuntu Touch, Sailfish OS, Droidian, Mobian, Postmarket, etc. is even more apparent with this move by Google.

@elebertus Well, PinePhone is great for running 2 year old distros, OnePlus 6 is going to be great for any distro 1 year from now, and PostmarketOS runs anywhere. It _is_ worth taking another look :-).

@CalcProgrammer1 @Luigi311 @NekoCWD Megapixels work on Librem 5 and PinePhone Pro, too, at least. Compared to libcamera, it is quite easy to hack.

libcamera does not build on my Librem 5 due to meson requirements, but I'm currently playing in that area (libobscura + unicsy camera, close enough), and might want to help.

Should there be mailing list for this?

@Luigi311 @CalcProgrammer1 @NekoCWD Should there be mailing list for phone camera development? Or use phone-devel@vger.kernel.org?

@Luigi311 @CalcProgrammer1 @NekoCWD You ... really need AF algorithm, sorry. Manual focus on phone screen with no hints... just does not work well. Feel free to take a look at megapixels, AF is somehow working in there. And you don't even need to do it in libcamera, you can do it in application, too, even if that is wrong place.

@elebertus Any? Haha. Take a look at PinePhone and OnePlus 6.

I have complex set of functions in rust, and in inner loop, there's an if, which is constant for whole group. I'd really like compiler to build two versions of function set, one for if false, one for if true. Is there canonical way to do that in rust? And yes, code seems to be _that_ time critical.

@CalcProgrammer1 Original PinePhone was doing focus in hardware. Maybe it needs special firmware or something. It can also encode jpegs in hardware etc, it is rather unusual setup.

@mkyral @jancibulka Preprodej na marketing, vydirani. Najit ubytovane z jednoho pokoje, kteri nemaji stejne prijmeni, profiltrovat na seznam politiku, chtit po nich podporu pro sve cile. Ostatni zkusit aspon pripravit o penize... napr.

@discatte Take a look at Bangle.js2. That display is quite high resolution, and reflective. It can emulate pixel gaps, at least one tamagotchi emulator used that to produce interesting effects.

@NekoCWD @postmarketOS Umm. Not _quite_ mainline linux, I guess? Or are all patches merged? Where can I get the git tree, I may try to reproduce this...

@CalcProgrammer1 Thanks! But I got video processed by... mastodon I guess. So what is the best resolution where you can keep 15fps?

@CalcProgrammer1 Hey, that's quite cool. Could you check if you can record video, and if so, in what resolution? I am working on video recording on Librem 5 -- should be able to record in 384p forever -- and would like comparison.

@dos @newbyte USB-C is black magic. Various cables will not work for fast charging simply because internal resistance is too high.

@mkyral @jancibulka Podobne jako v pripade voleb, i tady je papir super vec. Zamenit vysledky v pocitaci je snadne, vymenit hlasovaci listky ve vetsim meritku je tezke. Ukrast databazi ministerstva je snadne, nehlede na to ze bych se vubec nedivil kdyby ji ministerstvo omylem dalo nekam nezabezpecenou. Okopirovat papirove knihy nepozorovane a ve velkem je tezsi.

U silnice muze stat babicka a opisovat SPZ. Ale ve chvili kdy to dela kamera automaticky je to jina kava. Ochrana soukromi...

Para z rychlovarne konvice by asi nemela jit pres vypinac? Aha, tak rychle sundat, cela konvice je nejaka horka. Na te desce s kontakty by asi nemela byt voda...? A hadam ze ten plast nema tak divny tvar z vyroby, to se asi roztavil....

@NekoCWD @libcamera @pipewire @postmarketOS I see, libcamera improved while I was not looking. Still no autofocus... and needs newer meson than I have on Librem 5. Anyway, I should probably take another look.

@fell Dunno, sounds like you need garlic, cross and perhaps exorcist :-).
