Those of us on Debian (stable) won’t see this update for 2 years. Haha.

I explained to my wife that most men would rather have a vagina attached to a fish than a human torso attached to whatever a fish has down there.

You can see exactly what he made in 2023. The report is available here.

I find that the F-Droid “system” is pretty opaque. There doesn’t seem to be any way that you can track a bug somewhere that a build is failing or who is working on it. Just the build fails and…hopefully someone realizes it and they’ll fix it at…some date in the future.

Ahh the halcyon days of downloading one song from a private FTP server with upload ratios, found by Lycos FTP search. Over a modem, natch, so it took about 50 minutes…and that’s when your mom didn’t kick you off the internet so she could make a call.

The “undermine the security, safety, and privacy of Oregonians by forcing device manufacturers to allow the use of parts of unknown origin in consumer devices” line is the same reasoning used by AT&T back in the old days as to why you couldn’t buy your own phone or use a dial-up modem.

54 just dropped on F-Droid for those waiting for it.

Yeah been trying to figure that out myself.

This is similar to Facebook. FB was “censoring conservatives” and “shadow banning” them when Tucker Carlson, Dan Bongino, and Trump posts had the highest engagement on the site.
