After 10 months of not working with a PinePhone I can tell you I'm back at it. Gentoo getting into binary packages I coudn't help but wonder "does this make gentoo on a PinePhone work?" and the answer is yes! #Gentoo #Pine64. I will update my blog with a new post soon about it. (so at least you know which use flags to use) but for now I made a binary host for the PinePhonePro Only! distfiles.gjdwebserver.nl

These packages are made for the A72/A53 and includes all packages in my repo.

You think decentralised social networking was invented with Mastodon? Think twice.

It was almost exactly 14 years ago, on May 13th, 2010, that @Mike Macgirvin ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ conceived Mistpark. All by itself revolutionary and with features which no-one else has ever built into a decentralised project until today, it was only the first step of a long journey which led to Friendica, nomadic identity, Hubzilla, all three still before Mastodon, and eventually the streams repository.

@Katharsisdrill Yes, Diaspora* is two months younger than Mistpark.

But Diaspora* of 2024 is no match for Mistpark of 2010, feature-wise. Mistpark, on the other hand, evolved into Friendica which federated with everything that moved, then into Hubzilla, the nomadic Swiss army knife of the Fediverse, and lastly, into the streams repository which is the home of the technologically most advanced Fediverse software to date.

in reply to Jupiter Rowland

- Still, if you want to write history why not mention Diaspora too. They are an important part of the fediverse.

(I have been using all of them since 2014 and Diaspora is actually pretty stable and user friendly which is more important than features - at least in my opinion. I am trying to move to Hubzilla to be able to reach both protocols and that is one big UI-mess.)

in reply to Katharsisdrill

- But at least on Hubzilla it is actually possible to reach all the corners of the fediverse.
in reply to Katharsisdrill

@Katharsisdrill I didn't want to write the history of the Fediverse itself. The revolution I was referring to is not the Fediverse.

I wanted to write the history of the streams repository. The revolution I was referring to is nomadic identity and a system of permissions that exceeds the capabilities of both Mastodon and Diaspora* far and wide.

Linux Document Translation?


Does anyone know of document #translation software for #linux -preferably offline- which supports #Japanese #language? Specifically something that is able to process the text from scanned image #PDF files.
in reply to eshep

github.com/LibreTranslate/Librโ€ฆ
This can translate Japanese.
But I have no idea how to feed the text from scanned images to it.
in reply to gunnar

Looks promising, but only seems to accept files with actual text in them.

\m/ thanks!

in reply to eshep

You're welcome. If I'm not mistaken, it does not accept pdf, but after converting it to odt (or something else), it might work that way.

Students at Indian schools get books that teach them about open source applications like Krita. This is how all government should spend tax payers money and not on proprietary stuff. #linux #opensource credit reddit.com/r/kde/comments/1bfxโ€ฆ

in reply to nixCraft ๐Ÿง

This more than proofs that most open-source software can replace proprietary ones if given the market to do so!
in reply to nixCraft ๐Ÿง

this post tells Microsoft that there is another Market they can buy by giving the government free licenses for education. The schools then do the free advertising and you end up with adults who think that a computer equals windows.

The best one-man distro ever made!


Lookin fer a new #distro but don't wanna choose between #KDE, #GNOME, or some obscure #WM the arch kids are into this week? Maybe you've heard some old greybeards grumblin about #enlightenment but figured it was just some hippy thing. What if there was an easy way to get yer hands on the tried and true, real enlightenment window manager, #e16, without all that configuratin bidniss? If yer lookin for a well polished #debian with a UI your friends prolly don't have, maybe take this Elive thing nobody's talkin bout fer a spin.

Much like any good magic trick, the more you know about what's been tweaked and streamlined behind the scenes, the more you can appreciate all that's gone into the making of this distro. This has been a one-man project from before the time I learned of it sometime early 2005 in the #e channel on freenode. Much though and dedication has gone into the design of each release since then.

Go check it out, it's free if you don't wanna help with production.
