On: Fairphone 6 and PostmarketOS working main camera

We don't need multiple OSs for that. One unlocked and FOSS OS is enough.

I do. Why not?

On: All phones sold in the EU to have replaceable batteries from 2027

Not water proof and definitely big for its capacity.

[realusername → jhasse]

Yes, hence why I'm sure companies with 100x the budget can do better.

On Pixels too.

Pixel 8 is nearly 3 years old. Battery is still perfectly fine.

[patall → jhasse]

My Pixel 4a would also still be fine. If Google had not killed the battery. I think by now Google has asked (=paid) people to swap batteries on at least 3 different Pixel phones.

On: SDL bans AI-written commits

[jhasse]

You absolutely do need SDL, it's full of knowledge by humans from trial and error over years of using input devices in the real world.

On: Ninja is a small build system with a focus on speed

[jhasse]

Good point. I think it would be fixable by using the Change Time instead of the Modify Time, because that changes when moving the copy over the original.

Good news, I've been working an adding file content hashing to Ninja: https://github.com/ninja-build/ninja/pull/2735

That will fix the "switch branches back and forward" case :)

On: Wayland set the Linux Desktop back by 10 years?

[jhasse]

Audio APIs on Android are completely different than on GNU/Linux.

3D was also different (OpenGL ES vs OpenGL mess), only now it's starting to become kinda the same with Vulkan.

[pjmlp → jhasse]

Nope, they are also available as they are Khronos standards for audio, and Mesa also does OpenGL ES.

Do you need a tutorial?

[jhasse → pjmlp]

You mean OpenSL ES? Is anyone actually using that on desktop? On Android there's https://github.com/google/oboe.

While Mesa has OpenGL ES it wasn't always available (for example not all drivers are using Mesa).
