Minds #readingcommunity, what is a book you've read recently that you absolutely do not recommend anyone read, and why did that book disappoint you?

This makes me so ANGRY. I found James Shapiro in 2021 and asked him this question, and he said then it was "not impossible". Yet the world pushed ahead injecting everyone of child-bearing age and younger.

I just recently found out about a mobile Linux company called FuriLabs. They made a fork of Droidian called FuriOS and are offering a phone for sale that uses it called the "FLX1". The phone has a 5000 mAh removable battery, a headphone jack, is IP68 rated for waterproof, 128GB of storage, 6GB of RAM, and has an 8 core SOC in the Mediatek Dimensity 900. FuriOS plans to offer monthly updates to the stable branch, plans to collect zero data from the user, and allows using normal Linux programs on your mobile device. They seem to ship to a variety of countries. If you want a phone that can be fixed, isn't a throwaway, and want to use an OS that is closer to straight Linux on your phone then this is very interesting. It looks like a good addition to other such devices like the Volla phones and Teracube 2E.



The main website for FuriLabs is here:

https://furilabs.com/




The store page for the FLX1 is here:

https://furilabs.com/shop/flx1/




The company has a Github page where their code can be found:

This week's donation went to Bardia Moshiri also known as "FakeShell". They're a developer who contributes to Droidian, FuriOS, Manjaro Libhybris among others. In short if you're wanting to get away from Android/iOS and run a more pure form of Linux on your mobile device they're helping make that happen in a variety of ways.




They have a personal website here:

https://bardia.tech/





They have a profile at Github:

If you wish to help them financially they accept donations through Github and Patreon:

Hi Everyone!
Let me tell you real quick about our family business. We started our family business because we couldn't find a CBD product on the market that was effective + clean. Some of our family had extreme needs for high-quality CBD, so we created the products we wanted. We started in order to offer CBD to others that we knew was as pure and powerful as humanly possible and kept the full plant compounds intact. If you want to support a company that supports free speech platforms like Minds and need a source for CBD that's pure and high quality we're glad to help. Click below to try us for 40% off today.
