@gdroid I use it sometimes on my Nextcloud instance. Does the trick. #at_bitfire_davdroid #fdroid_app_comments
@gdroid A great email client. Couldn't use Gmail on it, though. #com_fsck_k9 #fdroid_app_comments
@gdroid My go-to time waster when standing in line. #com_dozingcatsoftware_bouncy #fdroid_app_comments
@gdroid Nice application with a good selection. I used it while working overnight and it came in handy. #net_programmierecke_radiodroid2 #fdroid_app_comments

The Tale of the Three Beautiful Raptor Sisters, and the Prince Who Was Made of Meat by Brooke Bollander
Do you need to know anything beyond the title?
@gdroid #ws_xsoh_etar #fdroid_app_comments Simple little app for keeping track of appointments and schedules.
I just got a check in the mail for a lot of money. So... Yay? #ThisIsAwkward
I have packaged a fork of #TowerJumper that has music in it. This is a pre-release, and so must be merged into the mainline repo. Comments and suggestions welcome. #GameDev https://github.com/Ertain/TowerJumper/releases/tag/1.0.8.m
I have written a bit of a #review on the HP x2 Notebook running #Fedora 29. Read it, and be amused. https://www.jasonsblog.place/index.php/2019/03/26/the-hp-x2-2-in-1-notebook-and-how-well-it-runs-fedora/ #Linux
Since we have so many crafting games, you'd think that the materials the player uses would have names for the units (e.g. cords of wood, ore of copper, length of wire, bushels of leaves, and so on). #Craft #GameThoughts

Emergency commissions!
My cat was attacked a while back by my neighbor's dog. They were given the medical bills, of course (300$), but they decided they would rather not pitch in. I can't really do anything about it at this point. Between this and my pitiful amount of work hours, my account overdrawn. I turn 21 tomorrow!! 😭
If you could boost, it would help a ton. If you tip me a dollar through the site, I'll dedicate a quick sketch to you as well. Just pm me about it.

If you're an avid open-source user who would love to help advance a project, there's a lot you can contribute whether you can program or not:
Provide constructive feedback, file bug reports, improve the documentation or help out maintaining the web & social media presence. Spread the word and recommend the projects you love to others (btw, I run Arch 😂)
Say "thank you" and tell developers to "keep up the great work". That form of contribution means a lot more than you could possibly imagine.
It's nice that #Beto has thrown his hat into the ring, and is running for president. But it seems like a campaign composed of Sanders and O' Rourke would be more successful. Since O' Rourke is an incumbent, and isn't will known around the country, he's going to need a lot of help in getting the vote, and from the looks of it, Sanders shares some of O' Rourke's ideas.

Attendees at #OSLS have been asking our opinion of #CommunityBridge. We've posted our analysis of it. Most notably, the platform is proprietary software, not FOSS. https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2019/mar/13/lf-community-bridge/
I've been going through desktop environments, seeing which ones will work with this install of #Fedora on this HP x2 tablet, and surprisingly, #KDE works pretty gosh darn well. Of course, to get the touchscreen to behave, I had to use #Wayland.
I'm sure I angered a couple of Frenchmen in the audience. 😈

Australia data encryption laws explained
The Electronic Frontier Foundation has said police could order individual IT developers to create technical functions without their company’s knowledge.
“This has the potential for Australian tech firms to have no clue whether they were even subject to an order,” the foundation’s Nate Cardozo told the BBC.
Yikes.
@gdroid #cz_martykan_forecastie Has the weather stats that I need. Though it's Euro-centric, I could still find my city in the U.S.
@gdroid #org_kde_kdeconnect_tp Great piece of software. I use it to send websites to my computer.
@gdroid #com_amaze_filemanager Nice file browser with a couple of handy features.
