openSUSE Seeking Additional Corporate Sponsors

While openSUSE is closely aligned with SUSE as a company, they aren't the exclusive sponsor of this free and open-source Linux distribution with its rolling-release Tumbleweed and Leap stable releases. AMD has been a longtime major supporter of openSUSE and the Fastly content delivery company has been another platinum sponsor too besides SUSE.

Sven Slootweg, ("still kinky and horny anyway") joepie91@slightly.tech

Hey, everybody? I get that it's frustrating when Codeberg is down. But please remember that it's a community project, and that the expectation of "everything is up 100% of the time" was created by exactly those tech companies that were killing off communities for the past 20 years. 100% uptime was never true before Facebook/Google/etc. came around, not even close.

And it's even more difficult to keep things up nowadays; there is *so much more* malicious traffic coming from the internet now than back then, especially since the rise of LLM scrapers.

So if you want Codeberg to be down less often, might I suggest reaching out to them about volunteering instead? Not right now, because they're probably pretty busy getting things back up, but once things have been stabilized a bit. Then you yourself can help improve the uptime!

I made an app that lets you browse the internet on old phones without 2G/3G. BlueWAP is an app for #Nokia #SonyEricsson and other supported #J2ME devices that lets your phone browse WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) and basic HTML sites by connecting to a modern 4G/5G phone over Bluetooth.

Nokia 6111 with no GSM signal, displaying gtrxac.fi via BlueWAP connected to the Note 3.

Nokia 7390 with no GSM signal, displaying archive.15pmm01.com via BlueWAP.

KEmulator nnmod (J2ME emulator for PC) running BlueWAP displaying wap.blamba.de. BlueWAP does not necessarily require Bluetooth if your target device has another way of going online (e.g. Wi-Fi).

We had an introduction to #Debian for newbies at #DebCamp today.

Three people from host country Argentina turned up.

I showed them a demo of debian packaging.

The general flow of packaging is,

1. Get source code
2. Generate packaging files
3. Build the .deb file
4. Make it lintian clean

We need distros to do the packaging because the original developers can't package for all distros.

In #android and #iOS you only need to upload to a single store in most cases.
