Interesting. From what we surmise from the image, design has flaws.
Also a phone doesn't need a #camera, only an infrared scanner perhaps for QR Codes?
If it can be flashed with fully #FOSS firmware for the radio/#WiFi and a fully FOSS OS that would be able to handle #I2P, Tor, Fediverse and #XMPP clients and connect to one's #BitcoinCore (or Monero) to transact over, say a local businesses #BTCPayServer, then we would fully endorse it.

Yes your reference to them wanting it to be a #cloudUploadingDevice (or #CUD) for the ewes to chew on is a worst case scenario.
An interesting idea would be the phone does nothing, but talks to your #gnuLinux at home, which does all the logic for it. The only thing it needs to do is connect to your #PersonalComputer.
We can dream, but most importantly, push, for that.
@AAKL@andrew_writes who at #MS is making these decisions and what upper managerial performance metrics are they jumping through? This feels like some desperate product manager trying to hit 80% #edge usage statistics or something.
Creepy clingy prompts are just going to piss people off and reinforce their choice to use alternatives. So grateful that #GNUlinux is around.
Hola!! Vengo de masto.es y soy nueva en esta instancia. Así que voy a hacer una #presentación
Me llamo Gabriela. Pero me podéis llamar Gaby. Tengo 24 años y me encanta la #animacion y los dibujos animados, el #dibujo, estoy titulada como técnico superior en #grabado y la #estampacion y me gusta la #acuarela .Me apasiona la #informatica junto a #GNULinux siendo algo a lo que por ahora me gustaría estudiar y trabajar. También me molan los #videojuegos y las cosas #retro. También intento involucrarme en las luchas sociales que me interesan, como el activismo #lgbtq
Iré hablando de mi y lo que me gusta poco a poco. Un placer a todxs!! ❤️🥰
@tilvids@thelinuxcast I can understand your point of view, but #Flatpak is easy for all people, and I’m including to people dont know good about #GNULinux. Flatpak is a help for them and Linux is most powerful and an option for everybody. Flatpak is in my team!
@glorfindel Aquí aporreando el teclado, rebeldia es lo que se me lleva a mi, me gusta ser la oveja negra del rebaño a la que vive del engaño, ya tu sabes bro.
Larga vida al fediverse, a mastodon y a todas las redes del #fediverse , al #GNULinux y todas esas mierdas, proxis incluidos, p2p, tor y esas cosas, jajajjaa.
Hey #Toronto folks on Mastodon. We have a third by-election going on as a result of former mayor John Tory not being able to keep his xxxxx in his pants.
There's a city council by-election in the Scarborough Southwest city Ward 20 on November 30th. Kevin Rupasinghe is the clear left challenger.
If you can help in any way, by donating, canvassing or making phone calls, please do. We can win this one and shift the politics on Toronto City Council.

Back when I was writing on @boingbot, I'd slam out 10-15 blog posts every day, short hits that served as signpost and public notebook, but I rarely got into longer analysis of the sort I do daily now on Pluralistic. Both modes are very useful for organizing one's thoughts, and indeed, they complement each other:
This week, @kottke linked to #B612, a free font family "designed for aircraft cockpit screens," commissioned by #Airbus. It's got all the bells and whistles (e.g. hinting) and comes in variable and monospace faces:
B612 arrived at a fortuitous moment, coinciding with a major UI overhaul in @thunderbird, the app I spend the second-most time in (I spend more in #Gedit, the bare-bones text-editor that comes with #Ubuntu, the flavor of #GNULinux I use).
Hoy empieza en Madrid una nueva edición de las jornadas lúdicas #LudoErgoSum, por lo que he pensado en compartir 3 juegos de código abierto en vez de uno como otros viernes: 1 RPG, 1 tipo juego de mesa y algo similar a los #Wargames
Juego de estrategia en tiempo real de ambientación futurista espacial.
Tanto las unidades como los proyectiles se calculan en tiempo real y ofrece una balística de proyectiles, una física de explosiones y una deformación del terreno totalmente simuladas.
Más de 400 unidades disponibles
En este juego conocer el terreno es importante, tanto a la hora de construir, mover nuestras tropas, etc.
🤓👍 Danke #Fediverse - & #Gnulinux -Community für die rege Teilnahme an der Umfrage zu #KartenApps und #OSM!
Mein Vorhaben, auch Menschen aus "anderen Social-Media Kanälen" für die Befragung zu gewinnen, muss wohl als gescheitert angesehen werden (🤔 mmh, 13 von 1196, das ist wohl keine valide Vergleichsgruppe...)

My fav lightweight text editor in #Linux (but it's cross-platform).
I also like the simple way to download latest binary:
