What do you reckon is a realistic timeline for the phone to be "mainstream ready"?

Friday!
I hope that you had a great week, and that your weekend is going to be great too!

Listening to this month's #mmbc album. It's well outside of my normal music realm but i'm giving it a good chance.

Go pick up the album

Has anyone here used PJON? It sounds like pretty damn cool tech, from the website at least.

How can you quickly tell whether an application is free software or nonfree?

Well, one way is to check what the software is licensed under!

Roughly, a license can tell what users can and can't do.

The recommended free licenses are the GNU General Public License, version 3 (GPLv3) or the GNU Affero General Public License, version 3 because they are copyleft licenses. We will get into copyleft later.

The list of free licenses are here: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html

Get one with a green line!

So #FreeBSD question.

How would i update/upgrade the install on my RasbPI Model B?

The freebsd-update command does not work and the SRC tree/archive is not available. At least not at on the freebsd ftp site...

Got the first bits of UI for user-facing controls working in Megapixels. Also figured out how to get the gain/shutter information from v4l2 while the camera is in auto mode.

He who laughs last didn't get the joke.

The joys of being the Sysadmin at a small company. Even on your days off you'll most likely need to work.
