anyone looking for a christmas project? here's an idea...

once gitlab.postmarketos.org/postma… is merged it won't be necessary have a fat32 boot partition for #postmarketOS anymore, just a root partition.

this means that for a buuuunch of Android devices it would be super easy to install postmarketOS from a rooted Android install (e.g. lineageOS) just by

  • flashing the boot image + erasing dtbo
  • mounting the root partition image and cp -a'ing the whole thing to userdata
  • patch the UUID of the userdata partition to match the one in /etc/fstab using tune2fs, OR patching the cmdline (in the boot image) and the fstab to have the correct UUID

Then you can just run (from your rooted Android phone)

curl switch.pmos.org | sh

#Linux Fedi: I'm at an absolute loss. I have an AMD laptop running Arch, which works fantastically well, but occasionally, almost always when watching something on Youtube in Firefox, the frame rate crashes through the floor. We're talking like 2fps even just moving the mouse around.

Only a restart fixes this - restarting the DE doesn't help. I'm on kernel 6.11.5, but anything newer is worse.

Any ideas what this might be?

@The_cimek @BenjaminBrinckmann Manually. I've not used a non-Arch distro in quite a while, so I wouldn't know. Maybe GNOME 47 forces Wayland without a fallback option now?

@The_cimek @BenjaminBrinckmann That'd be why!

Thanks - will give Xorg a try next time I see this problem.

🎧 Shout out to Donnie Simpson for introducing me to this groove and so much else good in early 80s DC. His morning show @ 💋 KISS-FM was always on.

To compensate for the takeout pizza at lunch I made us a very healthy Italian lentil soup with spinach for dinner.





Trying to buy a ticket to a streaming event on the Japanese website e+, and I need a Japanese phone number to register! Does anyone know how I can get a SMS-capable Japanese phone number for registration?

I don’t know if this would work outside of Japan, but we got a sim card from Airalo Japan, which gave us a Japanese phone number while we were visiting.
