          WE REPORT FEWER INSTALLED APPS NOW. THAT IS THE FIX.

          That number on the card went from 3,981 to 791 and it is the thing I am proudest of in this release.

          In 2018 I wanted a list of the apps installed on an iPhone. I thought that was one question. It is at least six, and no single artifact answers all of them.

          So we tested it properly, iOS 12 through iOS 26, every registered test image we have. The old installed summary had been counting app extensions, malformed bundle IDs, and apps known only from container activity. Strip those out and the count drops by 80 percent. Nothing was thrown away. It moved to a table whose label says exactly what the evidence supports, and the historical view got bigger at the same time, 9,575 rows to 11,786.

          The history got bigger. The claim got smaller. That is the trade I want every time.

          My favorite detail: on one public test image, two apps being removed produced seventeen container destruction rows in nine seconds, because every app extension owns its own container. Read those rows as apps and you would report a phone shedding seventeen. It shed two.

          An inventory and a stack of receipts are both useful. They are not interchangeable.

                      The license is all you need (for Open Source AI)

                      Over two years of practice and recent policy decisions prove that the Open Source AI Definition v1.0 is valid. Now let's focus on the other unresolved issues, like fairness. [SENSITIVE CONTENT]

                      It turns out that open training data is not the most important piece of an Open Source AI. The license of the model is.

                      I spent two years leading the process that decided what “Open Source” should mean when the thing being opened is a foundation model instead of a codebase. While serving as executive director of the Open Source Initiative, I ran a large, global, inclusive effort, with dozens of organizations and hundreds of contributors for a couple of years, arriving at a definition of Open Source AI that none of us could have dictated alone. The harshest discussion in that process, by a wide margin, was about training data, not weights or code.

                      A small but vocal minority pushed hard for the definition to require only open training data as a condition of calling a model “Open Source,” not as a nice-to-have but as a floor. Without it, they argued, you don’t have all of the four freedoms, the backbone of Open Source: you can’t fully study or reproduce the AI, so you don’t have Open Source at all. The objection didn’t go away after the Open Source AI Definition (OSAID) v. 1.0 shipped. The definition requires the weights and the code that generates them under an Open Source license; additionally, it requires sufficiently detailed disclosure about what went into training them, but not necessarily the data itself. I’ve defended the outcome of the process for two years. Practice so far has shown that the OSAID holds. This summer, policy defended it, too.

                      The purity test

                      A version of the argument lingers: if the training data stays a black box, an Open Source license on the weights is a technicality, because you can’t verify what you can’t inspect. Real security and real trust require opening the whole AI-creating pipeline, not just the output. I get the intuition; it is more rigorous. But reality shows that regulators and AI adopters aren’t acting on data provenance. They act on the AI model’s license first and the credibility of who built the thing second. 

                      Suppose the Chinese government released a model tomorrow with full weights and a complete, public training corpus, thoroughly documented. The security establishment would not trust it automatically. Trust doesn’t come from disclosures alone. It comes from long-established credibility of the labs building the models, the governance of the project. A track record earns trust in a way a data dump can’t. Today, data disclosure remains an argument for courts to dissect copyright issues.

                      Nineteen days dark

                      On June 9, Anthropic shipped two new models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5. Three days later, the US Commerce Department applied export controls with immediate effect, barring access by any foreign national, anywhere, including Anthropic’s own staff. Nationality can’t be verified in real time at the API layer, so both models went dark, globally, for everyone. Partial clearance came June 26 for a short list of vetted US critical-infrastructure organizations. Commerce lifted the controls June 30. Fable 5 came back online June 30, nineteen days after a policy decision took a live model away from the entire world, including the company that built it.

                      Six weeks later, the mirror image played out. Moonshot AI, a Chinese lab, opened the API for its new K3 model on July 16 and released the weights on July 27: a frontier-class model on an open release path no export order can touch once the files are out. Moonshot AI showed the power of open: You can switch off a proprietary, hosted-only model, but you cannot switch off a copy already running on the users’ hardware.

                      On July 21, US Treasury Secretary Bessent said the government would examine Chinese Open Source models for intellectual property theft, with sanctions on the table. That’s a statement of intent with complications: sanctions need an enforceable chokepoint, and once weights have been downloaded across a dozen jurisdictions, there isn’t much to grab onto. Mozilla’s State of Open Source AI report says the quiet part out loud: an outright prohibition gets harder to enforce as adoption grows, because every copy already held sits outside the reach of the order.

                      Whatever Washington ends up doing about Chinese open weight models, it will have to act on distribution and access, on what a license permits and who can get the files, because that’s the only lever still standing once the weights are loose. 

                      These actions show that regulators are more concerned with who’s allowed to access the download link than with whether Moonshot AI disclosed its training corpus: The license is what counts.

                      What the numbers show 

                      Kimi K3, a model available for free with some restrictions

                      1

                      , ranks fourth on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, within four points of the proprietary frontier. Models with no or few restrictions to use now carry roughly a third of all tokens routed through OpenRouter, up from about 2% eighteen months ago, and still climbing. Chinese-built open models are running at more than 3.5-to-1 over US-built closed models in token volume on the same platform. DeepSeek-R1 ships under a plain MIT license, at reasoning scores within a couple of points of OpenAI’s o1, for $0.55 to $2.19 per million tokens against o1’s $15 to $60, roughly a 27x price gap at near-identical performance.

                      These numbers show that users aren’t concerned about data provenance but they care more about model availability, capabilities, and cost.

                      AI foundation models are a brand new “thing”

                      Last year I was one of the co-authors on a paper in Communications of the ACM, alongside people who spend a lot of time analyzing AI openness: Yann LeCun, Nathan Lambert, Sayash Kapoor, and a dozen others across Mozilla, the Linux Foundation, Columbia, Princeton, Eleuther AI, Allen Institute for AI and more. That framework’s whole point was to resist a single-axis view of trust and transparency for AI: don’t stare at the weights trying to adapt old concepts to this artifact, but look at the full stack. The framework treats licensing and documentation of the model as separate, cross-cutting attributes. Documentation covers model cards, evaluation results, and information about the data, distinct from the data itself. A license to the weights is its own category, alongside documentation rather than beneath it.

                      Current.ai’s Gap Map, which catalogs what’s needed to build and ship a model, runs on the same architecture. It tracks datasets, code, and weights as separate components with their own separate gaps, and nowhere does it treat a dataset as a requirement of the model trained on it. The Gap Map is a practical representation of AI openness produced at the Columbia Convening, and it still doesn’t back the purity position. It agrees with me: license plus disclosed documentation is the operative bar for Open Source AI. 

                      Time to say it plainly

                      Let’s stop pretending this is still an open question. Training data provenance matters, and that’s not up for debate. But training data isn’t AI’s source code, and it was never going to be the policy’s lever. The CACM framework says as much, and so does Mozilla’s report.

                      Washington is reaching for export controls and sanctions built entirely around license and access to models. The courts are narrowly arguing copyright issues. In the market, open weight models under OSI-approved licenses are eating token share regardless of what anyone knows about their training corpora.

                      The purity test was always a bet that the world would eventually agree data openness is the real bar. The world placed the opposite bet, in public, this summer, using just the license as its operating lever. It’s time the rest of us caught up to back our own definition and move the policy debate towards a fair AI ecosystem.

                      1. A previous version of this post incorrectly classified Kimi K3 as “open weight”, a term that I use to imply the license of the model is OSI-approved. This is not the case of Kimi K3 license. ↩︎

                          Now I want to move my Homelab off my daily PC and put it onto its own environment/Computer to have my own home server.
                          Question is, what Distro should i use for my home server?
                          Some of the options i been looking at are the following:
                          Linux Mint XFCE (Similar to my main Distro)
                          Ubuntu Server (Popular Choice)

                                          dropQbsd has been moved from GitHub – where a copy will remain – to Sourcehut, its natural home.

                                          I’d like to thank Drew DeVault for welcoming me onto his platform.

                                            📢 Fediverse-Sprechstunde: Was sind eigentlich „Issues“ – und warum gehen sie uns alle etwas an?

                                            Ihr nutzt Friendica, Mastodon, Hubzilla, Sharkey oder eine andere Fediverse-Software und plötzlich funktioniert etwas nicht so, wie ihr es erwartet? 🤔

                                            Oder ihr denkt euch bei einer Funktion:
                                            „Das könnte man doch besser machen!“

                                            Vielleicht habt ihr auch eine Idee, die ihr gern den Entwicklerinnen und Entwicklern mitteilen würdet.

                                            Dann fällt früher oder später ein Begriff: „Mach doch ein Issue auf.“

                                            Aber was bedeutet das eigentlich?
                                            Was gehört in ein gutes Issue hinein? Wo erstelle ich es? Welche Informationen brauchen Entwickler, um einen Fehler nachvollziehen zu können? Und muss ich dafür überhaupt technische Kenntnisse haben?

                                            Genau darum geht es bei unserer nächsten Fediverse-Sprechstunde:

                                            📅 Montag, 31. August 2026
                                            🕢 19:30 Uhr
                                            💻 Online

                                            🔎 Was sind Issues und wie erstelle ich welche?


                                            Für dieses Thema konnten wir Jens (@qbi ) gewinnen. Einige von euch kennen ihn vielleicht bereits aus unserer Fediverse-Sprechstunde zum Thema BookWyrm.

                                            Jens ist Administrator und Entwickler und kennt Issues nicht nur aus der Theorie, sondern aus der täglichen Praxis. Gemeinsam wollen wir uns anschauen, wie aus einem beobachteten Problem, einer Idee oder einem Verbesserungsvorschlag ein Issue wird, mit dem Entwickler auch wirklich etwas anfangen können.

                                            Dabei geht es ausdrücklich nicht nur um Entwickler oder Administratoren!

                                            Denn freie und offene Software lebt auch davon, dass diejenigen, die sie täglich benutzen, Rückmeldungen geben. Niemand kann jeden Fehler selbst entdecken und niemand kennt alle Wünsche und Probleme der Nutzerinnen und Nutzer.

                                            Ein gut beschriebenes Issue kann deshalb ein kleiner, aber sehr wertvoller Beitrag zur Weiterentwicklung einer Software sein. 🌱

                                            Und vielleicht nehmen wir dabei auch ein wenig die Scheu vor Plattformen wie GitHub oder Codeberg. 😉

                                            Ihr müsst dafür keine Programmierer sein und keinen Quellcode verstehen. Neugier und Fragen reichen völlig aus.

                                            💬 Was ist überhaupt ein Issue?
                                            🐞 Wie melde ich einen Fehler sinnvoll?
                                            💡 Kann ich auch Ideen und Verbesserungsvorschläge einreichen?
                                            📝 Welche Angaben gehören hinein?
                                            🔍 Sollte ich vorher prüfen, ob es bereits ein ähnliches Issue gibt?
                                            🤝 Wie erleichtere ich Entwicklern die Arbeit?

                                            Und natürlich bleibt wie immer Raum für eure Fragen und den gemeinsamen Austausch.

                                            Die Fediverse-Sprechstunde soll kein Frontalunterricht sein. Sie ist ein Treffpunkt zum Fragen, Erklären, Ausprobieren und voneinander Lernen – für Einsteiger ebenso wie für erfahrene Nutzer, Administratoren und Entwickler.

                                            🌐 Mehr Miteinander statt Gegeneinander.

                                            Gerade im Fediverse gehören Nutzer, Administratoren und Entwickler zusammen. Wenn wir besser verstehen, wie die jeweils anderen arbeiten und wie wir uns gegenseitig unterstützen können, profitiert am Ende das gesamte Fediverse davon.

                                            👉 Montag, 31.08.2026 um 19:30 Uhr

I regard this work as I would a book, workshop, or any other labor that I do that is part of my life's work.

And they are still accessible to all through those different platforms.

                                                                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.

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.

But as a user, it always annoys me when I want to buy something with BCH and then I'll have to wait 30-120 minutes for me transaction to get confirmed. Sure, BCH has got 0-conf. But no one outside BCH takes it seriously even when you give them a feedback. And we cannot make a change while we are a minority.

And when we are a minority, we cannot define the rules. We have to go with the rules till we get big enough. Then we'll be able to rule how we want. Like technically sound.

                                                                                          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.

                                                                                                                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.

Dies ist ein seltenes Ereignis. 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…
