Waking my #Librem5 from suspend when a new #matrix message triggers a notification.
Starring:
- matrix server: #conduit
- #UnifiedPush and notification server: #ntfy
- #sip client: #pjsua
- #fractal: matrix client
- #feedbackd: rhythm & sound
Uhm, I'm listening to #InternetRadio using my #Librem5 while on my #notebook at my desk. Why?
There's this bug letting pipewire-pulse fail, because too many connections are open.
I didn't find a way to have the #Shortwave #Flatpak play directly using pipewire.
Nice to have the same software stack on my mobile phone which now is connected to my usb speakers.

#flohmarkt 0.4.0 has been released.
it's primarily a bugfixing release and some nice visual improvements.
the most impactful thing is probably the fact that authorized_fetch now works with #mastodon
see the full changelog at https://codeberg.org/flohmarkt/flohmarkt/releases/tag/0.4.0
thanks to @bignose @Tealk @midzer and all the various translators for their contributions :)
Just found an old #sdcard of my former #android phone. It is formated - I guess - as #adoptable storage. I remembered that there might be an interesting picture on it.
I do not know whether the Sony Z1 I used that time does still work, but I'll try to recover it with this knowledge I wrote down 5 years ago: https://xdaforums.com/t/howto-replace-device-and-keep-sdcard-with-adoptable-storage.3913789/post-79200875 .
Chris Vogel shared 16 days ago#flohmarkt news: today i've merged a big PR from bignose who wrote codeberg actions for automatically correcting common whitespace- and other format errors.
@midzer continued working on refining the item page design.
thanks to @neil we can welcome four new #uk instances into the community, two of whom want to be publically listed and most of whom federate already with each other: https://fleamarket.neilzone.co.uk https://flohmarkt.modern-industry.com/
as always: find flohmarkt at: https://codeberg.org/flohmarkt/flohmarkt

This is not a trick, this is a treat! We are thrilled to release 
* Support for Debian 12/Bookworm
* A reworked SSO system and user portal, with app logos and customization (there's a halloween theme! 🎃🦇)
* Improvements on the webadmin UX, e.g. you can add subdomains on the fly when installing apps
* A more lightweight base system
* ... and more sweets! 🍬
➡️ We strongly recommend to carefully read the release note before upgrading: https://forum.yunohost.org/t/31673
Just ordered a yellow Casio watch for the Sensor Watch Pro I'm waiting for.
When I'll replace the original casio electronics with the #SensorWatch I'll have the original electronics left over. Wonder whether there's a model to print a watch case for the electronics somewhere out there...
The already visible trend, as we shall see in the coming chapters, is that any actor with an interest in purchasing probabilistic information about our behavior and/or influencing future behavior can pay to play in markets where the behavioral fortunes of individuals, groups, bodies, and things are told and sold

Setting up my federated fleamarket with flohmarkt
Yesterday, I set up an instance of flohmarkt on a Raspberry Pi, to experiment with a self-hosted, federated "fleamarket" system, for advertising some old tech stuff that really needs a new home.
It's alpha, and has a few rough edges, so perhaps my notes will help:

Thanks to everyone who helped test it!
The nature of its products explains why Google repeatedly claims that it does not sell personal data. What? Never! Google executives like to claim their privacy purity because they do not sell their raw material. Instead, the company sells the predictions that only it can fabricate from its world- historic private hoard of behavioral surplus

In my post about waking my #Librem5 by calling to receive matrix messages I forgot to mention one of the actors: #PhoshAntiSpam.
PhoshAntiSpam rejects or silences incoming calls depending on a text file containing phone numbers and/or your address book.
If you're using #Phosh on your mobile phone and you get calls you do not want, it'll be of great help. Shoutout to @kop316@fosstodon.org 
@agx@librem.one Thinking about #chatty: Another really cool feature would be a bridge between matrix and SMS... 
Chris Vogel shared a month ago
@me a nice feature of SMS is that you can put the metadata into the SMS so one can e.g. just fetch that one single message in matrix (once chatty supports this, l already added support to libcmatrix)

In German I even like it better:
Ich hab' nichts zu verbergen. Da ist nur nichts, das ich euch zeigen will.

I really don't understand why people still use Gitlab. I can't login using my main firefox that I use on
All other sites I use work in that profile, too.
Only to Gitlab I can't login.
Note to myself: if I'm running various #firefox instances using different profiles and do not want to be interrupted by unattended updates needing a restart of firefox I need to set app.update.auto in each profile.
encryption is the only positive action left to discuss when we sit around the dinner table and casually ponder how to hide from the forces that hide from us

Note to myself: if you play with sound-themes on your #Librem5 (and probably any other #MobileLinux device) and you seem to be stuck with the default sound theme (freedesktop) then delete ~/.cache/event-sound-cache.tdb* and restart #feedbackd.
Thanks to @agx@librem.one for helping me on matrix:community-librem5 and for the great software!
After the release party yesterday for #flohmarkts beta 0.2.0 - first version tagged ever - we cleared out a last issue to make the beta release available for #yunohost. You'll find the yunohost soon in the app catalog - hopefully with the antifeature for alpha stage gone.
Actually the yunohost version is one step ahead of the official beta .
