Really had an amazing day at #FOSDEM today. The #LinuxOnMobile stand was absolutely *heaving* all day (as were our neighbouring @npub1vnux...8mqn and @npub1xwaz...75q9 stands) even after all the other stands had left. So much interest in #AsteroidOS, #SailfishOS, #Mobian and @LINux on MOBile So great to see so many new and familiar faces. My only regret is that I didn't get to go to any talks. I'll have to set aside two weekends to watch all the videos!

If you're at #FOSDEM and interested in running #Linux on your phone or watch (you should be!) then swing by the #LinuxOnMobile stand on Saturday or Sunday in building K, stand K1-C-6! We'll have #AsteroidOS, #Mobian, #SailfishOS, the @jolla Mind2 and more to test out and try. @LINux on MOBile will be there with stickers and insight. Plus @npub1vnux...8mqn and @npub1xwaz...75q9 are right next door!

The Alan Turing Institute will be well-represented at #FOSDEM this year! My colleagues from @Research Engineering @ Turing and @The Turing Way Project (no official Turing Mastodon account yet 😞) have been involved with the Python, Open Research and HPC/Big Data/Data Science devrooms. Open Research:

FOSDEM 2025 - Open Research

Python:

FOSDEM 2025 - Python

HPC/Big Data/Data Science:

FOSDEM 2025 - HPC, Big Data & Data Science

We also have six separate presentations across a whole range of different topics. 1/7

There's a bunch of exciting #SailfishOS stuff happening at #FOSDEM this year: 1. The #LinuxOnMobile stand will have phones to try. I'll be there, please come say "Hi"! 2. A Sailfish social event Saturday night (they're always amazing). 3. A Sailfish Community BoF on Sunday with the @jolla team. Plus a bunch of talks in the devrooms. Looking forward to an amazing event!

FOSDEM 2025 - Sailfish OS Community BoF

If you're heading to #FOSDEM with a #SailfishOS phone there's a new FOSDEM25 app for this year with: 1. Improved higher-res map of ULB. 2. Improved guestbook. Grab it from OpenRepos or (hopefully, eventually) Chum:

My #JollaC2 Community Edition phone is finally fully working and I'm spending a bit of time getting to know it. I like the physical feel, although some aspects will take a little getting used to (big screen, rounded corners, notch). I do appreciate the subtle touches like "Privacy from Finland" printed on the camera bump. Captures the spirit of #SailfishOS. Can't deny I'm thrilled to see #Gecko ESR91 running on it. Now to spend some time getting the software set up just right!

The #SailfishOS community news, last of the year, is now out! 🎄 There's a summary of the grand opening of the @jolla AI factory in Salo 🤖 🏭 Jolla C2 and Mind2 updates 📱 Xperia updates 📱 and Sailfish OS 5.0 updates 🐟 Plus Damien's repository roundup 🐙 and my app roundup of 2024 📲 🎄 🎁 ☃️ 🎄 🎁 ☃️ 🎄 🎁 ☃️

Choosing a small, low-powered, home server, with so many options, each with their own benefits, is no easy task. But I have finally chosen and this is my rationale.

A Brief Embedded Browser Expo. As part of my continuing exploration of embedded browsers, a hands-on look at three nice examples: Chromium Embedded Framework, Qt WebEngine and Sailfish WebView. What features do they support? What do their APIs look like? What are they like to use in practice? And what is an embedded browser anyway?
