all the gnomies i’ve met so far love to build and are constantly working. so… doozers. are doozers worker gnomes? and if they are, the most important question: who’s modem doozer? muppet.fandom.com/wiki/Modem_D...

i just got a message from @richlitt.bsky.social about one of the (many, many) things he did as interim executive director. it was an important thing, but not something that was in the news. he's busy with a phd. but once he's done, you should hire him.

shuoqi yu describes openkylin in shocking detail for a short talk at linux app summit ... ending in "we plan to support .exe and .apk applications". 😳 ha! this thing is bonkers and neat. www.youtube.com/live/pCIkiZr...

desktop and mobile linux live in a "linux sandwich" between the big bad web and tiny embedded systems. fosstodon.org/@AleixPol at linux app summit with "an analysis of a changing linux ecosystem", and how desktop+mobile borrows from each (ex. containers, arm64) www.youtube.com/live/OP_QEZk...

tuba, a mastodon client for gnome, discussed as "a fork success story" by @geopjr (start time set): www.youtube.com/live/VDwwPMm... if you're a dev who uses linux and ever wondered what building a native gnome desktop app might feel like, this is a very real window into that world.

re: a 501c3 i volunteer with- i want to write this blog: "donate less" ... a long-term, recurring donation is far more valuable to a nonprofit than one big lump. cash flow matters. $4/mo >>> $100 one-time if it's negligible to you (say, the price of a coffee), you won't axe your donation later.

the idea of aligning flatpak.next with opencontainers.org is intriguing. naive thought: it feels like maybe reusing container tech and container infra (as in, replacing flathub) are two separate issues? or maybe it's silly to reuse one and not the other?

because i'm watching 2 tracks at once, track 1 has sri discussing what it's like to attempt vibe coding a gtk app: www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDww... i feel like "vibe coding is a casino" might stick. 😂
