While not officially affiliated with the beloved six-second-looping app, it's restored more than two million original Vine videos. Behind the scenes, it is decentralized and powered by the open-source nostr protocol, and has built-in technology to minimize AI content. It's funded by Jack Dorsey, Twitter co-founder, who is also involved with nostr. Here's more from @Engadget.

Wie der Entwickler anmerkte, ermöglicht die Kombination eines großen Modells mit einem kleinen Modell die kostengünstige Verifikation. Das bedeutet: Kombiniert man die GLM-5.3-API mit Deepseek-V4-Flash auf einem DGX Spark, erzielt man einen massiven Leistungsschub ohne die Kosten in die Höhe zu treiben. Hat man vier DGX Spark-Geräte, kann man GLM und Deepseek auf einem einzelnen Knoten multi-batchen und Fable komplett offline übertreffen, ohne eine API zu nutzen. Willkommen in der Ära der lokalen KI. Jacky Kwok (@jackyk02): Natürlich! In unserem Paper (llm-as-a-verifier.com) haben wir tatsächlich Gemini 2.5 Flash verwendet, um GPT-5.5-Trajektorien zu verifizieren, und erreichten damit zum damaligen Zeitpunkt SOTA auf Terminal-Bench 2.0. Daher sollte die Verifikation von GLM-5.3-Trajektorien durch lokales V4 Flash definitiv funktionieren 👀 — nitter.net/jackyk02/status/208

Does anyone know how DistroWatch tracks updates, or how to properly reach out to Linux news sites? It's FOSS reviewed us once, but we’ve made massive changes since: new custom tools, a rewritten installer UI, and more!

                                                                                                                                                                                                        Tomorrow marks our 5th anniversary! 🎉 But despite publishing our updates, we're facing total radio silence. I don't want to jump to conclusions, but after 5 years, it honestly feels like a media boycott simply because of our project's origin (Iran). I didn't choose my nationality, and despite heavy restrictions, our team has built something we're proud of.

                                                                                                                                                                                                        We even have Server and Mobile editions in active development, yet the mobile efforts seem ignored even here among FOSS enthusiasts.

                                                                                                                                                                                                        How can we break this silence? Any advice is appreciated! 🐧❤️
