Smartphones freedom status in 2023

The talk will start with a description of what hardware is typically found in a smartphone and its freedom implications. Once this is done we will look at several smartphones models (PinePhone, PinePhone PRO, Librem 5, regular LineageOS and/or Fairphone 1/2/3/4/5) and compare the implications of the hardware design and component choices both for freedom usability (for instance does suspend-to-ram currently work), and other factors affecting the ability to use the device. We will then look at Android and GNU/Linux operating systems / distributions, and the application ecosystems around them (F-Droid, Android SDK, type of applications available, compatibility layers like Waydroid) for these smartphones, with a focus on fundamental differences that impact end users freedom and usability.

Wer nicht Chefredakteur einer großen Zeitung ist, kann auf andere Art die öffentliche Debatte vorantreiben: Kommunikationsguerilla im öffentlichen Raum schafft Erregungskorridore, an denen die öffentliche Debatte aufgehängt werden kann. Wir haben den Hergang verschiedener vergangener Projekte, kleinere wie größere, rekonstruiert und geben Tipps zu Theorie und Praxis.

Just one sign switched and all of physics changes: Moving objects lose kinetic energy instead of gaining it and radiating objects get hotter instead of colder. Infinite velocity and infinite temperature are no longer impossible. Stars look like rainbow-colored lines instead of white dots and turning your arrow of time around into your own past is just as easy as turning from left to right. In this talk, we will explore the physics in a spacetime with signature (+,+,+,+) as presented by Greg Egan ...
