          I am getting really unhappy with how @e_mydata seems to evolve. It starts to push more @murena services unto it's users.

          I have no need for Murena Password. Sorry, but I trust Bitwarden and Proton Pass way more. But I'm being forced to see dark patterns trying to tempt users to enable. I kinda accepted that a little bit, since it's their OS platform.

          But now I discovered that SeedVault is gone and replaced with Murena Backup. I had a perfectly fine SeedVault setup which synced backup data in the background to my own backup server (which again is backed up, encrypted, to a server on a different location). Now I seem to need to sign up for a Murena Workspace account. With backup encryption keys tied to Murena Password. That's crossing a line I'm not going to accept.

          That means I will need to cash out more to have a backup of my /e/OS devices. For something I already had setup and protects my data and privacy even further than what I believe Murena is willing to do. Yes, there is a free tier Workspace. It's limited to 1GB data, to my understanding. And I doubt their setup, software stack and client side apps has been through a full third-party security audit.

          Either I have control of my backup data, or you can try to convince me using a data storage service after showing me your third-party, independent security audit report.

          That just.means: NO, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

          I have bought several phones, tablet and accessories from Murena over the years. That stops now. I can no longer recommend Murena to others, as they now seem to move towards a full vendor lock-in corporate model. That is unacceptable to.me.

          It's been nice to be able to buy with pre-installed /e/OS. But now I'm going to test out @calyxos moving forward. Despite the firmware flashing inconvenience.

                        I tested Keep the Why across 6 coding agents and 9 models.

                        The agent harness mattered far more than I expected.

                        Gemini: 10/10 in one agent, 0/10 in others.
                        Grok stayed consistently strong.
                        Some runs even fabricated compliance.

                        Don't benchmark only the model.

                            The GUI didn't make computing easier. It made you a passenger.

                            Type cd .. and you're navigating — you know where you are, where you're going. Click the arrow in your filemanager and you're following a path someone else designed. The first is writing. The second is a reflex.

                            Same logic from the Airbus that overrode its pilot to the spellchecker that corrects you without asking: the machine's judgment overrides yours, silently, automatically.

                            Not a feature. A philosophical manifesto.

                            And when writing came back — through the AI — it returned as supplication, not sovereignty. The closed-source GUI and the undisclosed LLM are the same thing.

                              Had some more time to play around with the newly acquired from @pine64

                              I got a new user account setup using systemd-homed which gives you an encrypted storage for that user. This will require you to log in with a password each time you fire it it up. I consider that a good thing! I also registered my public SSH keys into the systemd-userdb, which then allows me to log into the device with this user account. During the SSH login, you'll be asked for a password too - which is used to decrypt the home directory. Logging out, and the home directory is locked again.

                              Also played around with various apps, especially ++ and . Both highly capable.

                              What currently irks me the most is that the desktop environment is really not designed for monochrome displays. There are so many different shades of grey everywhere making it really hard to read the screen. This is even with "High Contrast" enabled. GNOME really need a different working mode for eInk displays.

                              seems to work fine, but recommend to install apps using the command line and add the --user argument to flatpak install. The user data partition has more storage space available.

                              Next up will be to get and setup properly (openvpn3-client installed easily). Considering if I want to setup e-mail on this device or not. With that plus backup (I'll be using ) set up, its getting ready for some real daily use.

                                    I love open source. I self-host quite a lot, and I'm pleased that I can do that.

                                    But I get frustrated at how often documentation only covers the initial set up. Earlier today I looked at documentation for a service I was considering self-hosting.

                                    It had instructions for installing, but nothing about how to upgrade an existing installation. But it's important to me that I know how to upgrade when a new version is released.

                                    I've seen desktop programs where the documentation has "How to make your first in five minutes". Then the rest of the documents assume a deep understanding, with apparently nothing to help you get from new user to wizard level.

                                                          I just released ptrclassify is a small, dependency-free Python library and CLI that infers likely IP usage from reverse-DNS PTR hostnames.

                                                          It is intentionally heuristic and multi-label. PTR naming is operator-controlled and is not authoritative evidence of how an address is actually used. The output therefore includes a confidence score, the text that matched, and the rule IDs that produced each label.

                                                          To summarize, the library is trying to guess usage (and a bit location) of an IP address based on its PTR records. It's based on a set of rules which can be updated easily.

Selten, weil Torvalds nicht mehr am Linux-Kernel codet. Er prüft nur Code und Merge-Pull-Requests von Mitwirkenden. Daher ist dies eine seltene Gelegenheit in jüngster Zeit, bei der er selbst einen Kernel-Patch erstellt hat. Und diesmal hat er Unterstützung durch KI in Anspruch genommen. Der Bug befand sich im Intel-Xe-Grafiktreiber für Battlemage-G21-Karten. Er verursachte, dass GDM, der Display-Manager, sich endlos neu startete. Die Fehlersuche erforderte 24 Debug-Patches und 18 Kernel-Boots. Als Ursache erwies sich eine einzelne Zeile, in der roundup() statt rounddown() hätte stehen sollen. Die KI „hat die Schufterei für Torvalds erledigt": Hinzufügen von Debug-Instrumentierung, Ausführen von Analysen und sogar Schreiben der finalen Commit-Nachricht. Aber es war nicht alles ein leichtes Unterfangen. Die KI sagte Linus immer wieder, dass das Problem „unmöglich und unlösbar" sei. Jedes Mal widersprach Linus und ging weiter. In seinen Worten: „Ich vermute, dass diese Dinge von Menschen trainiert wurden, die vielleicht nicht so stur sind wie ich." Das ist erneut das, was wir immer sagen. KI ist nur ein Werkzeug und sie ist im Wesentlichen nützlich, wenn ein fähiger Mensch den Prozess steuert. Überlassen wir sie ihren eigenen Schlussfolgerungen, würde sie diesen Bug als unkorrigierbar bezeichnen und sich zurückziehen. Aber Linus Torvalds hat Erfahrung. Er konnte verstehen, was die KI richtig oder falsch machte. Der Patch ist nun in Linux 7.3 und wurde in stabile Kern…

Ich werde ihn schrittweise veröffentlichen; er wurde bereits auf RDNA 3.5 getestet. Theoretisch sollte er auf jeder AMD-Hardware funktionieren, die über einen iu4-Pfad verfügt. Dieser Code entstand in Zusammenarbeit zwischen Claude Code (hauptsächlich) und mir. Das Ziel war es sicherzustellen, dass ROCmFPX ebenfalls einen iu4-Pfad nutzen kann, falls dieser auf der AMD-Hardware vorhanden ist. Es handelt sich um experimentellen Code, der langsam unter der MIT-Lizenz zusammengeführt wird. Er sollte direkt innerhalb von ROCmFPX laufen, jedoch gibt es einen Quantisierungspfad, falls benötigt, der als ROCmi4 bezeichnet wird. @ciruai hat ebenfalls einen eigenen Ansatz erstellt, der einen separaten Runner verwendet und zusätzliche Funktionen mit Sidecars bietet, was ich gespannt ausprobieren möchte. Sein Ansatz nutzt ebenfalls einige ROCmFPX-Codebestandteile (auf der Quantisierungsseite). Der iu4-Pfad in ROCmFPX ist jedoch fundamental anders: keine Sidecars, kein separater Runner. Wir befinden uns in den aufregendsten Zeiten der Technologie und KI, da so viele Menschen daran arbeiten, sie für alle besser zu machen. Ich wurde von vielen Menschen motiviert und inspiriert: Tom Turney (Turboquant), PK (Cyber Security), Paris (unterstützt meine Ideen immer), Ciru (Inferenz-Meister), Sandro (Luce Box), Davide (Luce Box), Donato (Genie), Mr R0b0t0 Ahmad, alle ROCmFPX-Mitwirkenden und viele weitere.

KI ist nur ein Werkzeug und sie ist im Wesentlichen nützlich, wenn ein fähiger Mensch den Prozess steuert. Überlassen sich selbst ihren Schlussfolgerungen, würde sie diesen Bug als unkorrigierbar bezeichnen und sich davon abwenden. Aber Linus Torvalds hat Erfahrung. Er konnte verstehen, was die KI richtig oder falsch machte. Der Patch ist nun in Linux 7.3 und wurde in stabile Kernel-…

                                                                                              Im working on a P2P messaging app and generally up until recently i thought in such a system, if a peer is offline, you cant send a message... It wouldnt be "decentralized" if there was some central queue of messages.

                                                                                              It took embarassingly long, but then it hit me... git... just regular git is a decentralized database. Github/Forgejo isnt decentralized, but git can have multiple remotes that can act as redundencies.

                                                                                              In my setup i need the ability for others to be abe to read and only i should be able to write to it. That functionality is out-of-the-box in git.

                                                                                              Git is also pretty standardized so there are many providers if users want to move away from Github.

                                                                                              The storage requirements for my project are fairly small. Typically small text messages. The data itself thats publicly readable would be encrypted (aiming to keep aligned to Kerkhoffs principles).

                                                                                              I have concerns around if providers like GitHub, Codeberg and Gitlab might see the way my app works as fundamentally violating their terms-of-service. I'll have to consider providing a backend service for this which I've generally tried to avoid.

                                                                                                                  So with TuxedoOS migrating to Debian, I wonder if Linux Mint will start to prioritize development of LMDE over standard Ubuntu based LM.

                                                                                                                        Account migration on pixelfed.social is disabled. I hit bugs in the flow and chose to pull it rather than let people run into them.

                                                                                                                        It’s temporary, and account portability is not something I take lightly.
