Posted by Ghassan Shamieh, attorney in San Francisco about how community mobilizations against ICE are blocking deportations and keeping people safe.
"This is what people power looks like...It's thanks to these protesters that ICE has not shown up to immigration courts...So when you ask what can you do, this is exactly what you can do. Organize in your communities, show up to immigration courts and scare ICE away, just like these folks do.
Actions like these literally save lives. Because of their action today, ICE didn't show up."

LA FINE ANNUNCIATA DEL MODELLO MILANO
Un'altra Milano c'è!
Il giorno dopo tutti si scoprono critici severi del “Modello Milano”, compreso chi fino a ieri era comodamente seduto sul carro. Ma così vanno le cose e quindi non perdiamo tempo con inutili lamenti. Piuttosto facciamo un po’ di mente locale e riannodiamo i fili della memoria, perché in questi anni a Milano non tutto era appiattito, silente o complice. Per quanto ci riguarda, vi riproponiamo una serie di contenuti pubblicati nel corso degli anni che lo testimoniano, non per un altrettanto inutile “l’avevamo detto”, ma per iniziare a comporre quello che dovrà essere una proposta altra per la nostra città, senza la quale ogni appello a non consegnare la città alle destre reazionarie sarà semplicemente sterile, inconcludente e indigesto.

Deswegen enthält unser #Grundgesetz Mechanismen um das zu verhindern.
Womit sie nicht gerechnet haben: dass "konservative" Parteien die sich als demokratisch (und "christlich") verstehen, den Faschisten näher stehen als den demokratischen Parteien und somit wieder zum Wegbereiter der Faschisten werden.

Librem 5 camera/kernel can do three possible resolutions, ~1024x768 @ ~24fps, ~2048x.. @ ~31 fps and ~4096x.. @ ~15fps. Debayering is actually easier and better quality if we downscale at the same time, and that allows best framerate, so we do that (2048x.. resolution).
ARM has problems with cache coherency w.r.t. DMA, and kernel solution is to simply disable cache on DMAbufs for userspace, which means accessing video data is 10x slower than it should be on the CPU. Which means debayering on GPU is attractive, and that's what we do. (gold.frag). GPU can do more image signal processing functions easily, too, so we do some of that.
Unfortunately, we hit the same uncached memory problem at the GPU output. So we use separate thread to copy. All this unfortunately does not fit on one core, so we need two threads, one controlling GPU debayer on frame n+1, while the other one copies video data from frame n. (heart.c). We save resulting RGBA data to ramdisk. This all costs maybe 80% of one core.
From there, Python scripts can pick them up: ucam.py displaying the viewfinder and mpegize.py handling the video encoding via gstreamer. There's basically 0% cpu left, but I can encode ~1024x.. video. Unfortunately that's without audio and with viewfinder at 1fps. Plus, combination of C + Python is great for prototyping, but may not be that great for performance.
Code is here: gitlab.com/tui/tui/-/tree/mast… .
At this point I'd like viewfinder functionality merged into the rest of GPU processing. Ideally, I'd like to have a bitmap with GUI elements, combine it with scaled RGBA data, and rendering it to screen. I know SDL and Gtk, SDL looked like better match, but I could not get SDL and GPU debayering to work in single process (template SDL code is here gitlab.com/tui/debayer-gpu/-/b… ).
If you can integrate main.c and heart.c, that would be welcome. If you have example code that combines SDL with processing on GPU, that would be nice, too. If you know someone who can do GPU/SDL, boost would not be bad, I guess.
@dos I guess that for 120 fps video, you'd want to capture a burst to available memory, and do the conversion after the capture is done.
Could we get some intermediate (maybe cropped) modes, too? For digital zoom, or maybe for cases where performance is not available to deal with full image.
