Corona diaries – the ubports ubuntu touch experiment – part 5

The Ubuntu Touch system has been up and running now for the better part of a month and, so far, has been totally stable with two larger system updates thrown in.

Corona diaries – 3 current projects and some questions

First experiences of the Ubuntu Touch mobile operating system as a daily phone
Doing the second development step with the mapping in the motorcycle fuel injection system (TuneEcu)
Finding some answers to 4 questions:

What is important in your/my life?
What aims do you/I have?
What inspires you/me?

I have always had a soft spot for Linux/Ubuntu even though using the command line window is for me like trying to speak a foreign language that I don´t understand using a phrase book.
