#OSU’s Open Source Lab has a shortfall of funding ($250k) that if they don’t raise, means the lab will be shutdown. Federal grants are a cluster right now and big donors might come through but in the interim, if you can donate or appeal to your company to donate, plz do! #opensource #osl h/t @Mulderc https://osuosl.org/blog/osl-future/
You may not have expected it but FTP works out of the box, which means that FTP also is baked in the base install of termux
#bash #csh #zsh #ksh #fish #sh #Linux #ftp #command #line #termux #programming #OpenSource #POSIX #technology
FreeBSD 15 has silently been released.
Expect the announcement and site update, once most of the mirrors have synced.
GNOME has had that system for more than two decades or so IIRC {if I recall correctly} they're 27 ATM.
I had seen it in the first couple of years of GNOME spawn and development, when the programmers chose the route of less configuration & more dictation

@fdroidorg I am the founder of @yaleprivacylab , where we have investigated #privacy and #security issues in #Android apps since 2017. I can say without hesitation that this change makes Android users less safe.
Android is based upon free and #opensource software (#FOSS) and that has always been defined by user choice. Blocking the capability to install apps directly from trusted sources outside #Google Play is not a small tweak. It removes a core freedom...
Packages are updated easily with pkg
The hints are plentiful
ifconfig is installed by default
You can also keep the shell evironment permanent, true termux itself and of course you should also use your Android BMS {battery management system} to tell it that termux needs to be unrestricted
#bash #csh #zsh #ksh #fish #sh #Linux #command #line #termux #programming #OpenSource #POSIX #technology
In these screen caps I've shown you how I've installed it on one of my Androids and then started working with it immediately because the environment is familiar just like the ones that I knew 30+ years ago
#bash #csh #zsh #ksh #fish #sh #Linux #command #line #termux #programming #OpenSource #POSIX #technology
Termux has so much because It was written for the Command Line jockey. If you ever worked and an Open Source Operating System in {ba/ch/k/z}sh shell;
If you even worked in a closed source command line like DOS you'll feel right that home here
#bash #csh #zsh #ksh #fish #sh #Linux #command #line #termux #programming #OpenSource #POSIX #technology
Organic Maps is standard here when I want to be a easy smooth navigator. I know how to use a compass 🧭 and sextant if needed though
Here you see the fDroid update / installation process
#Maps #Organic #navigation #OpenSource #programming #technology
Ok it’s not fully ready for release BUT big news for #selfhosted #forgejo. I’ve written a new plugin for #traefik that can serve static webpages direct from git! Like GitHub-pages but you can host yourself. It also supports SSL for custom domains (the bit I was battling with). Watch this page for more updates #opensource

Wie zuverlässig und Kopfschmerz-frei ist Kubuntu 25.10 als daily driver für Beruf und Schule im Vergleich zu 24.04?
Auch hinsichtlich von Software die keine Version für 25.10 bietet.
Organic Maps is a great alternative to the one from Alphabet.
Offline navigation is standard.

Why do so many developers love GitHub? 🧑💻❤️
GitHub isn't just a code repository; it's a collaboration powerhouse. Features like pull requests, issue tracking, and actions streamline teamwork. Plus, integration with IDEs and CI/CD tools makes it indispensable for modern software development.

Why is GitHub called the “home for code”? 🏡💻
GitHub isn’t just a repository host; it’s a collaboration platform powered by Git. Features like issues, pull requests, and CI/CD integrations transform version control into a system for building projects together. It’s why 100M+ developers depend on it daily.

LLMs have a place in our @ivycyber business but it's a very carefully controlled one, and not in the codebase. https://psafe.ly/TRySSC
Rather than buying useless junk today, how about sponsoring your favorite open source projects?
(Or me at https://github.com/sponsors/JosephLeedy.)
Ever wished LLMs could drive your computer? 🤖💻

Want E2E encrypted messages and video calls with no downloads, no sign-ups and no tracking?
This prototype uses webRTC to establish a secure browser-to-browser connection. Everything is ephemeral and cleared when you refresh the page—true zerodata privacy!
Check out the pre-release demo here: https://p2p.positive-intentions.com/iframe.html?globals=&id=demo-p2p-messaging--p-2-p-messaging&viewMode=story
(For those who have seen it before, i've added fixes and improvements throughout, so it might still be worth checking out)
NOTE: This is still a work-in-progress and a close-source project. Its far from finished and doesnt have the user-experience needed to promote the project to a wider audience. The implementation is based on the open source MVP seen [here](https://github.com/positive-intentions/chat). It has NOT been audited or reviewed. For testing purposes only, not a replacement for your current messaging app.

Why I (still) love Linux
I usually publish articles about how much I love the BSDs or illumos distributions, but today I want to talk about Linux (or, better, GNU/Linux) and why, despite everything, it still holds a place in my heart.

Looks fab!
Concerned #accessibility comes after all being worked on now.
I ❤️ #monetization options are planned. Concerned "ad free" options imply ads are planned as part of the roadmap?
Absence of #AI is refreshing!
Is #UnifiedPush part of "push notifications", or just feeding everything via #Google / #Apple? (cue usual: "They're encrypted. Don't ask whether metasdata / future decryption / #MobileLinux matter" discussion)
Project Moebius (#decentalized?), better editing & live streaming look super cool! ❤️
Finally, a regular reminder to please avoid creating a digital 1% elite by focusing "For you" on relevance not rolling-snowball-boosting of already popular accounts/content.
Thanks for all your amazing hard work! 💕 You ROCK!
They want you to think building platforms like TikTok requires billions in VC funding.
Reality: Laravel, Vue, federation, and a vision beyond profit.
@loops is my middle finger to tech gatekeepers who said only monopolies can build this.
High school dropout + open source + refusing to compromise = your federated TikTok.
The tools were always free. They just didn't want you to know.
