@nprofile…c5n8 I took a Renfe train from Madrid at the weekend. Didn't realise there would be luggage checks (x-ray machines). Arrived at the platform gates to find massive queues. The ticket didn't say anything like "arrive 30 mins before departure to pass through security" that would have been useful. Thankfully, I was with a pushy Spanish speaker who got us through the express queue - otherwise I would probably have missed the train.

I've released version 0.3.7 of my WIP #Psion Agenda-like app "Pygenda" targeting keyboard-equipped PDAs running Linux (#GeminiPDA, #CosmoCommunicator, #PinePhone + keyboard, #PocketReform, F(x)tec #Pro1X).
The last two releases have been bug-fix releases (two releases because minutes after 0.3.6, I noticed an API change in a dependency was causing a crash & rushed out a fix). Hopefully it's in a good state for testing now.

I've just released version 0.3.5 of Pygenda - my WIP #Psion Agenda-like app targetting #GeminiPDA & #CosmoCommunicator running Linux. (Similar keyboard #PDA type devices running #LinuxMobile should work too, e.g. #PinePhone + keyboard, F(x)tec #Pro1x, #PocketReform)
The main change this release it that todo-items with a due date are (optionally) shown in Week & Year Views. This has been a useful improvement for me as I now see todos in my "home" views, rather than having to switch to Todo View.

@npub198t…hasj Or the types of attack are changing to ones that are more detectable. E.g. more ransomware attacks, which are deliberately revealed by the attacker when they demand payment.

@npub198t…hasj I can't help looking at those figures and thinking Games Workshop is going to go bust.

@npub178h…hyhr A microdrive! I imagine the A-level moderators getting a copy of the project on a microdrive cassette and just signing it off.

Looking for a #Psion-like experience on your #mobileLinux device? I've just released version 0.3.1 of Pygenda - my WIP Agenda app.
https://github.com/semiprime/pygenda
No headline feature this time, but some convenience & in-progress features I wanted to make available for testing.
Designed for #PDA devices (e.g. #PinePhone with keyboard). I use it on my #GeminiPDA and I have install guides for #postmarketOS & Debian-like OSes. Would love to hear from people testing on their #MNT, #Zaurus, #eeePC, #n900…

@npub198t…hasj I prefer Wayland to vi.

@npub1ef9…9dr4 "Pygenda" - a GTK agenda app for handheld computers (inspired by Psion agendas, for anyone who remembers them).
