#Emacs is now available in #fdroid

And, surprisingly, it just ..works?

You can scroll buffers by touch scrolling and tapping a text buffer opens the keyboard.

The menu bar is finally useful because it pops out as a native menu.

This is trippy, this could almost be usable..

I'll have to get my config into this; I don't doubt it'd just work.

We humans have no natural predator you might say but that is not true: there is one.

It kills millions of humans every year; about one every 30 seconds.

It's a major contributor to a global conspiracy to destroy as much of the environment that humans require to survive as possible; to kill even more humans at an accelerating pace and make the survivors miserable.

Even without its co-conspirators it's capable of turning entire bustling cities into places unfit for humans.
Humans now plan their cities specifically with this predator in mind; building some defences but with ultimately little success at curbing its free roam.

Worst yet: It has successfully fooled humans into thinking they are dependent on it when in fact the opposite is the case.

It's a predator that we have created ourselves:

The car.

My PR adding FOSS fused location support to #organicmaps was merged

https://github.com/organicmaps/organicmaps/pull/9575

It uses the #microG play-services-location library which is a #FOSS re-implementation of the proprietary Google surveillance services client library that works with both Google #GMS and µG.

My red heart emoji (❤️) looks weird in #Firefox

This has been the case for quite a while now and I cannot for the life of my figure out why that is. I never explicitly made it this way.
It's only in Firefox and a machine with pretty much the exact same #NixOS config does not exhibit this issue.

I tried clearing unused fonts out of \~/.local/share/fonts/ (no emoji fonts remain) and updated the fc-cache but it didn't help. (Obviously I restarted Firefox.)

Any ideas?

This is how a #brompton EZ clamp spring looks like after a decent few months of usage.

As you can see, it's quite compressed now and, as a result, not springy enough to hold the clamp up properly anymore.

That lifespan is not bad by any means (easy enough to re-print) but does that happen to y'all too or is it just me?

It's also just the handlebar one; the other is holding up fine.

I remember seeing a variant of this which had an actual metal spring inside; I might look into that.

After a bit of confusion, I found out why my #Firefox was being laggy on some website despite me turning off Javascript.

Turns out I had set layers.acceleration.disabled while debugging V-Sync.

What this setting does is effectively disable hardware acceleration for a core component of page compositing; making everything laggy.

Mess with settings in a dedicated guinea profile people!

@firefox

Printed myself an EZ clamp spring for my #brompton at @cccda yesterday; a must-have for any @brompton rider!

It's *so* handy to have a local #hackspace with amazing people to help you out for this sort of stuff. Much love <3
