Since this is a Rust comm, will you at least post an example using your tool with Rust?

They will upstream stuff, but sadly they are not going to mainline.
No. It uses Hallium (Android kernel, basically).
It’s already delivered - a Mastodon user got one.
But getting an OEM to make a phone under your brand is easy. The real question is how long will they keep the software maintained?
These people seem like passionate Linux enthusiasts, so one can hope.
According to the Librem people: this is Android kernel (& other low level stuff) with Debian userspace, not a true Debian phone. https://social.librem.one/@dos/112686932765355105
The grandparent comment is correct. There is no such thing as engine-specific “maximum speed”. If you add more fuel, you can always go faster (until the speed of light).
WINE Is Not an Emulator and there is no Windows on RISC-V.
We could take this further and let developers specify exactly the dependencies they need! No more bloated runtimes! App A could specify libfoo>=1.23.45 while app B specify libfoo<1.24 and Flatpak could resolve the compatible version automatically!
Serious answer: If space saving is the goal, traditional packaging is the way to go. Allowing multiple runtimes is a slippery slope away from the core idea of Flatpak (simplest dependency management possible so developers don’t have to test many configurations).
(Not that there’s anything wrong with traditional packaging with more complicated dependency management - it’s just not Flatpak’s thing).
Never heard of this “Papers” PDF reader before and it’s not on Flathub either. Apparently it is a fork of Evince with lots of big changes planned. Exciting stuff! But does anyone know what’s going to happen to Evince?
You can’t do that on modern phones with locked bootloader. This is the reason why manufacturers who allow bootloader unlock still don’t ship phones with bootloader unlocked by default.
Are you aware that Firefox Translate uses AI models[1] to translate text and it’s already included in current versions of Firefox?
[1]: not a completion/instruction LLM, but still very much a “language” model

Anything that’s updated with the OS can be rolled back. Now Windows is Windows so Crowdstrike handles things it’s own way. But I bet if Canonical or RedHat were to make their own versions of Crowdstrike, they would push updates through the o regular packages repo, allowing it to be rolled back.
