I am interested too, my fallback bank trapped me (or my courage to resist), the fallback of fallback would be crypto but i am not sure i want to depend on this too...

Meanwhile, the last hope is that people will use more cash (if the digital world is too hostile, oh wait it is!)

BTW I anyone is curious, IIRC managed to jailbreak iOS 9.3.5 just from linux without any apple interaction (no cloud account), but since for some reasons phoenixpwn expired


Isn't it paradoxal, that those mentioned companies had set up an OSPO (to do OSS the right/community way... with the right/community minded people)

I believe this kind of schizophrenia is the price to pay of (too) big organizations.


A smooth transition from GNU screen to tmux, will be appreciated for potentially 60K users.

https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=screen

I note that tmux has only 40K users (of debian popcon users)

https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=tmux

I am considering to try the link shared previously:

https://github.com/grml/grml-etc-core/blob/master/etc/tmux.c...

Now I miss a way to translate CLI options and batch files


More seriously is there a list of SPDX, OSI rejected licence anywhere ?


I found this (https://spdx.org/licenses/) which seems to include if it's OSI approved or not (so I guess the assumption is that it was rejected by OSI if it isn't approved, but could be pending also).

Then I came across this (https://opensourcewatch.beehiiv.com/p/open-source-initiative...) which says (in 2023) that OSI is adding "Rejected, Approved, Preferred" categories to their labeling system, but I don't find the results of this work, if it was implemented.


We shouldn't put too much stock in what the OSI thinks open source is, since it's a consortium of big tech companies who benefit from more permissive licensing.


Only the word has been hijacked at best

"Your privacy is our priority..."


With all respect to the younger generation, this is project is oversold compared to previous similar projects.

BTW, which OSHW project is advanced enough to deserve more contributions ?

Back to paxo one, According to

https://github.com/paxo-phone/paxo-electronic

It is integration of SIM800L modem with ESP32

Software side, the main app (aka OS):

https://github.com/paxo-phone/PaxOS-9


> compared to previous similar projects

Such as?


The project is still in early stages. More and more people are getting involved, including people with some expertise.


Doesn’t really help that all issues and docs seem to be in French. Typical tho haha


I'm fine with that so long as either they don't care about us operations or someone (only need one or two) translates.


I suppose your point is that it is a strange topic to do in anything but Chinese?


Apprendre le Français?


SIM800 is 2G so already deprecated


so is purl.org


NuttX worth considering if you're coming from Linux background, I liked it and related community, BTW they have a workshop later this year.

Back to the subject implementing drivers can be a good warmup exercise, you can get inspiration from hints I have shared:

https://rzr.github.io/rzr-presentations/docs/nuttx/


How does it compare to e.g. Zephyr or other RTOSes?


I think the best way to compare is trying NuttX and others RTOSes on some supported board (raspberry pi pico, esp32-devkit, stm32f4discovery etc). As rzr said NuttX is easier for people with Linux background, because it is Linux-like. So the way you mount a MMC/SDCard is the same, the way you search for devices using i2ctool is the same, etc.


I'm not sure I follow. Why would I want to "use" an mcu board the same way I use my linux desktop? It's not like I'm going to dynamically mount an SD card from a CLI for such an embedded device. Or that I would want to have a CLI at all. It is designed for early prototyping?


You don't have to mount it dynamically if you don't want. You can use it in a very static way, like your baremetal way to do things. But you can also have option to do it dynamically, case you have different SDCards with different binaries to load (yes, NuttX support dynamic ELF loading as well).


Exactly. You can prototype heavily and make sure peripherals, firmware programming, etc is working/to your advantage before doing any pcb work

That said bigger mcu,mpu +fpga type devboards will still absolutely price out hobbyists


The best description is UNIX like, because NuttX is POSIX based, while many RTOS aren't.
