PSA: there's a problem with the `gdm` package (gnome display/login manager) on MNT Pocket/Reform, or on Debian unstable for that matter, please don't upgrade the package right now https://community.mnt.re/t/attention-when-upgrading-only-black-screen-with-cursor-instead-of-gdm/4150

regarding GDM failure on aarch64 debian unstable, seems to be compiler issue > /usr/bin/gnome-shell: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libgjs.so.0: undefined symbol: __aarch64_ldadd4_acq_rel, version mozjs_140

looking into options for parsing english language without LLM stuff. at first look the natural language parsing world seems kind of frozen in time and a lot of stuff is written in java, which i guess was not great for this purpose (from my experience old-school java is quite labor intensive and not very flexible or expressive... i guess this was before python gained widespread acceptance?)

Remember "don't print this email" in signatures that was a bit cringe? It doesn't feel that cringe anymore in retrospect. I'm doing an experiment now with this new email signature :D Anyone doing something similar? Could it catch on?

i now have DICOM files of CT of my complete head/skull, i'm sure there are some medical imaging experts here that can tell me how to turn this into a 3d model for 3d printing my own little skull?

i've seen there's a lot of DICOM software for linux, but not sure which one to pick and what the workflow is

i'm a laggard of moving from telegram to signal, but motivating people in some small group chats to migrate incl. those groups has been met with much less resistance than i expected :0 a lot of people already have signal anyway, just never mentioned it

meanwhile still scratching my head about where to migrate the company chats to (from self-hosted mattermost, which has become ai infested bloatware with an almost unusably bad and buggy android app and very slow web UI)

@eliasr i'm willing to compare it with the xmpp experience in my parallel reply in this thread, but i'm somehow skeptical about matrix, can't really put my finger on it though

i'm not convinced by what i've experienced with matrix so far, so currently my top idea is a good XMPP server + customized web app + existing mobile clients + probably some bridges. i wonder how well these things work though:- image and video upload from mobile- notifications for mobile- history sync- search

@aks yes, considered it but on self hosted have to pay $3.50 per user, that would be quite expensive for us as we have a bunch of lurkers

@wolf480pl @aks yeah, before i commit our stuff to another company again i would like to go an independent way this time i think. i'm pretty sure that there was a solution for mobile notifications over xmpp that wasn't a paid solution

i'm unfortunately not at FOSDEM this year, but:— @cas probably has a QCS6490 powered MNT Pocket Reform at the @postmarketOS table— @liaizon just traveled there all the way from berlin by bus (AFAIK they're mostly there for fediverse stuff, but surely don't mind to chat about MNT related things as well)

@tomjennings @GyrosGeier i've checked recent linux commits and they changed stuff in meson-pcie and temporarily broke things, and 6.18.5 misses some of the more recent fixes for that how i understand it. classic regression. i posted some links on IRC earlier

@GyrosGeier @tomjennings i think @josch is investigating a fix (perhaps linux 6.19 will be the fix)
