It happened! A new version of your favourite internet radio player is now available! 📻 🎉

Shortwave 4.0 brings a modernised user interface, a couple of new features, performance improvements, bug fixes - and much more!

Check out the blog post for more details:

TIL that you can install aarch64 Flatpak apps on an x84_64 host and they will run finely, just a bit slower.

Flatpak automatically starts them with qemu under the hood.

I was not expecting that. I'm impressed.

Shortwave started from CLI using aarch64

@haeckerfelix I'm far from the biggest Flatpak fan overall, but yes, that is both genuinely impressive and genuinely useful, especially if they get it to work in the other direction in a way that's sustainable on lower-powered devices (i.e. phones).

@haeckerfelix That's rather novel! Does it allow x86 binaries on aarch64 hosts - the other way round?

So folks, don't forget to check if your Ikea chair is compatible with your screen. I'm not kidding. A thread 🧵.

I've had the problem with my new screen for several weeks now, that every now and then the screen goes black for a few seconds.

Today I had enough and wanted to investigate the problem. So I started changing all the cables, plugging the screen into a different socket, and and and. Nothing helped.

@haeckerfelix Might this be somewhat mitigated by raising the relative humidity in your home?

@haeckerfelix Okay … so I can tell that Markus is compatible with the Samsung SyncMaster 2443BW, as I never had that problem. 🤓
