> they’re marketing very aggressively through posts that slander GraphenOS I would really appreciate it if you could give some references - any at all - to back this claim. All I have seen is GrapheneOS folks (or…
If what you want is android and you have privacy concerns, GrapheneOS is probably the best you can get. Then again, SailfishOS is a linux with much of the usual linux stuff like userland with bash, coreutils, glibc,…
Probably things like fixing the mainboards to the casing, putting in batteries, back covers, flashing the software, running hw tests, packaging etc.
I have a 32 GB iPad, I think it's the year 2020 model. The OS alone uses 19 GB ("iPadOS" 12.3 GB + "System Data" 6.4 GB) so yeah, not much chance doing any OTA updates on that one with the requirement of 13+ GB free.…
I guess it's subject to debate whether the cost indeed is prohibitive in the case of Norway. They are a small but extremely wealthy country - after all, they currently hold the equivalent of 1,5% of all the listed…
Oh but you don't usually need to care for the dot itself so much as it's just an indicator that you can do a middle swipe left/right to move between stacked pages.
They are also less than 2 months away from the first deliveries of the Jolla Phone 2026, a new SailfishOS device they have designed and built from scratch. Over the past years the official Sailfish experience has…
It certainly was political - with tax policies, you can make nuclear uneconomic which is exactly what happened in Sweden. For decades, the production and capacity taxes were a material part of the operating cost for…
This is the same issue that got a local drug organization busted some time ago - their entire α-PVP cooking operation was busted after one of the gang members was caught during a sale, his iphone was confiscated and the…
Oh but isn't that great. This is just the kind of digital sovereignty these times call for. Sometimes I wish the Germans had an island of their own somewhere up north near the american continent.
Me and a couple of friends read “The Soul of a New Machine” in our teens and it was a very influential book for us. In the late 90's I found a brand new hardcover copy of the local translation in a discount bookstore…
No final word as of yet, but in their most recent forum update [1] less than 2 weeks ago they said this is "unlikely for now". [1] https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/jolla-phone-update-lights-on-...
The firm with partly russian ownership went bankrupt a couple of years ago. The russian fork of the software lives on as AuroraOS in their local market but the current Jolla has no ties to russia.
There's a new Jolla Phone in pre-marketing phase right now (almost 9000 phones have been pre-ordered so far). First device deliveries are scheduled for this summer and this should easily be the new benchmark for…
Back in 1980's the Finnish public broadcaster YLE used to broadcast Commodore 64 software in their radio show Silikoni. They actually have a recording the first such episode available online at…
Exactly. And on that list, running Android apps on SFOS is very much a software feature, imo quite unlikely to be disabled purely in hardware.
I'm not sure if this article is factually correct in claiming the privacy switch to be a physical disconnect for microphone, camera and bluetooth. IIRC Jolla advertised that the user would be able to configure the exact…
> Google has a DC in Scandanavia that they shut down a few days a year when it gets too hot, otherwise it's just cooled by ocean water. They do? Which facility is this? I'm quite surprised to hear this would happen, in…
Although the SFOS community did express some interest in the 3.5 mm jack in the polls earlier, there's no headphone jack. The expected device sales volume probably would not cover the added engineering cost from such…
Hardware specs look pretty nice, SailfishOS should work nicely on this device. The design language remains faithful to the original Jolla Phone from more than a decade ago. :)
Being based in Switzerland, which is not a member state, PC Engines is not an EU company.
I'm not sure I understand how an American company would be able to provide any service that could be "sovereign European".
Oh my... I'm just left wondering if Apple releasing a giant sock for your phone equals to the proverbial moment of your taxi driver giving you advice on stocks to buy.
I have a Sony Xperia 10 III with SailfishOS and it easily does 48 hours on a charge when I'm not doing a lot of screen time. Also on days when I use it for tracking / navigation on 6-8 hour bicycle rides it easily lasts…
Yeah but you know, there's gonna be a million robotaxis driving around in 2 months time, pinky promise.
