I am looking for the "most missing" native apps for mobile Linux to be built in 4th semester student internship projects using libhandy. My criteria:

- no such app exists or is in development with substantial progress
- open source reference implementation is available (e.g. desktop or Android app)
- the app is small and not very complex (good example: offline dictionary)
- the app is useful for a large userbase and not only in a niche.

Suggestions/ideas warmly welcome!

@PINE64 Could you please clarify the situation regarding FCC/CE certifications of the #pinephonepro explorer edition? Your product page claims:

> Technical details, including schematics, information pertaining to individual components as well as available operating systems, certification and much more is available on our Wiki.

However, I can't find said information. I am asking you directly because I didn't get an answer in the forums either:

Thank you!

According to this campaign update, 100 backers and the initiator of a popular kickstarter project have to pay VAT twice as Royal Mail failed to bundle customs information with packages and is rejecting to take responsibility:

Mistakes happen, but refusing to take responsibility is a big shame.

Published my new article:

"Recommended procedure for installing Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye) on ARM64-based machines"

This is a major rewrite of my previous articles. I updated it for Debian 11 and tried to make it more concise.

Feedback appreciated!

The hardware of my Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini VE is protected fine by an #otterbox Defender. But how about the software?

I thought it would deserve an OS that is more secure than the "latest" Android 4.4 when Samsung stopped supporting it.

Now experimenting with #postmarketos running #plasmamobile:

Finally, I found a satisfying solution for cooling down the northbridge of a KGPE-D16-based #coreboot system.

I installed a Titan TTC-SC07TZ bracket that is long enough to reach to the northbridge. I replaced one of its fans by a different model from #noctua and now temps are below 55°C.

I plan to optimize this setup further by swapping the fan for the 92mm "slim" PWM version so it's speed can be better controlled using PWM instead of the old-school voltage regulator for the 3pin fans.

I wonder if there is an official date for the release of #BigBlueButton v2.3 planned. Is there?

Background: I need to upgrade one of my bbb servers as it's still on #ubuntu 16.04 - and is announced to be EOL at the end of this month. Although 2.3-dev runs pretty well, it would be great to go directly for bbb-2.3 final.

Btw. - the improvements in v2.3 are a huge step forward and highly appreciated, it runs really pretty fine on my test server since the early alpha versions.
