Due to personal health issues (nothing too critical, don't worry), Peter won't be able to publish a "Weekly #MobileLinux Update" post this weekend. The current plan is to have a combined post about two weeks on the 8th of March. Sorry about that! If you're impatient you can always use the […]

77 commits later, and #libobscura has a scripting system good enough to initialize a #USB #Camera So it's back to the same functionality, except with extra complexity, lol. Next up: organize the commits (don't leave a mess if you want contributors) and make sure #librem5 works the same way.
