And those orgs creating that closed source shit don't give a fuck about if LLMs are bad.

I'm firmly into "we should disallow that", but I see no way how we'll get out of this shit unharmed.

This might be as bad as the current trend for devices getting walled-gardened.

I start to feel like the grumbling, ranting old man, yearning for the good old days like the year of linux on the desktop.

Vulnerability advisories entering the public record over 5 years: PHP 6.6x, Java 4.8x, .NET 4.2x, Rust 3.0x, Python 2.3x. The count of catalogued open-source scanning tools per language stayed flat. For Rust that is up to 157 new advisories per open-source tool per year.

Type digits like an old feature phone to filter your installed apps and launch them. Press 3, then 4, and Discord comes up, since D is 3 and I is 4. Each key press narrows the list, and Enter launches the top match.
It has full TalkBack support: key labels read like a real phone dialpad, Enter announces exactly which app it will launch.

Als kleinen Nachtrag zu unserer gestrigen Fediverse-Sprechstunde zum Thema „Was sind Issues und wie erstelle ich welche?“ möchte ich die wichtigsten Punkte rund um Issues noch einmal kompakt zusammenfassen. 🐞💡

Issues – kurz zusammengefasst

Was ist ein Issue?
Ein Issue ist ein strukturierter Eintrag in der Projektverwaltung einer Software. Damit können Nutzer, Administratoren und Entwickler beispielsweise Fehler melden, Verbesserungen vorschlagen, Wünsche einbringen oder konkrete Aufgaben diskutieren und verfolgen.

Wofür werden Issues genutzt?

• 🐞 Bug Report: Einen Fehler melden
• 💡 Feature Request: Eine neue Funktion vorschlagen
• 🔧 Verbesserung: Bestehendes Verhalten optimieren
• 📝 Dokumentation: Fehler oder Lücken in Anleitungen melden
• 💬 Klärung: Technische Probleme nachvollziehbar beschreiben und gemeinsam untersuchen

Ein gutes Issue sollte …

einen aussagekräftigen Titel haben
Nicht: „Friendica funktioniert nicht“
Besser: „Bilder können beim Erstellen eines Beitrags nicht hochgeladen werden“

das Problem möglichst genau beschreiben
Was wollte ich tun? Was ist stattdessen passiert?

reproduzierbar sein
Welche Schritte führen zu dem Fehler?

wichtige technische Angaben enthalten
Zum Beispiel Software-Version, Browser, Betriebssystem, verwendete App oder Serverumgebung – soweit für das Problem relevant.

Fehlermeldungen und Logs enthalten
Wenn vorhanden, aber vorher unbedingt auf Passwörter, Tokens, IP-Adressen oder andere sensible Daten prüfen.

vorher die Suche nutzen 🔎
Vielleicht wurde das Problem bereits gemeldet. Dann ist es oft hilfreicher, ein bestehendes Issue um zusätzliche Informationen zu ergänzen.

Vom Problem zur Lösung

Problem entdecken → vorhandene Issues suchen → Informationen sammeln → Issue erstellen → Rückfragen beantworten → gemeinsam Ursache finden → Lösung → Issue schließen

Wichtig dabei: Ein Issue ist keine Bestellung an die Entwickler. Bei vielen Fediverse-Projekten arbeiten Menschen freiwillig in ihrer Freizeit. Ein freundlicher, sachlicher und möglichst vollständiger Bericht erleichtert ihnen die Arbeit erheblich.

Warum sind Issues für das Fediverse wichtig?

Open-Source-Software lebt von Beteiligung. Man muss nicht programmieren können, um zur Entwicklung beizutragen.

Ein gut geschriebenes Issue kann bereits ein wertvoller Beitrag sein. Nutzer kennen Probleme aus ihrem Alltag, Administratoren sehen die Auswirkungen auf ihren Instanzen und Entwickler können daraus technische Lösungen entwickeln.

Issues verbinden damit Nutzer, Admins und Entwickler. 🤝

Fehler finden ist keine Kritik am Projekt – einen Fehler nachvollziehbar zu melden kann aktive Mitarbeit am Projekt sein.

Vielleicht hilft diese kleine Zusammenfassung dem einen oder anderen dabei, beim nächsten entdeckten Fehler, einer Idee oder einem Verbesserungsvorschlag selbst den Weg zum Issue-Tracker zu finden.

Denn auch ohne selbst programmieren zu können, können wir mit guten und aussagekräftigen Issues einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Weiterentwicklung freier Software leisten. 🤝🌐

dropQbsd porting from OpenBSD to FreeBSD almost complete: testing phase now. Same scripts run on both systems. mksh adopted for full BSD portability. Next challenge: include NextBSD.

The philosophy stays the same: few lines of code, no virtualization, dead-simple configuration. Compartmentalization without virtualization, built on BSD primitives. Most threat models, minimal attack surface.

Furthermore, SPOT is now officially out of beta: better search, broader OSM coverage, and new tools that make geolocation verification easier than ever.

Aber wie heißt es so schön:

Nach der Fediverse-Sprechstunde ist vor der Fediverse-Sprechstunde! 🌐

Die nächste Runde wird im September stattfinden. Termin und Thema geben wir noch rechtzeitig bekannt.

💡 Themenvorschläge sind jederzeit herzlich willkommen!

Wenn es etwas im oder rund um das Fediverse gibt, das ihr gern einmal gemeinsam besprechen, erklären oder näher kennenlernen möchtet, meldet euch einfach.

Denn genau davon lebt die Fediverse-Sprechstunde:
Wissen teilen, voneinander lernen und miteinander ins Gespräch kommen. 💜

AI Agents in Container Security: Practical Experience

Zero-CVE images through Agentic AI: Red Hat’s Hummingbird project shows how AI agents automate container security – and where humans remain indispensable.

«Kernel.org — 98 Prozent des Linux-Kernel-Archiv-Traffics sind wohl keine Menschen:
Bots scrapen die gesamte Sammlung an Kernel-Commits und -Forks. Schließlich ist der Linux-Kernel eine exzellente Quelle menschlicher Arbeit.»

Weshalb erinnern.mich die KI's an den Bots seit je her? Die sind also so intelligent, dass die den menschlichen Arbeit schamlos beklauen (ich weiss Linux ist Open Source aber trotzdem)

I don't often listen to corporate broadcast radio, but today one of the stations in my market were using the phrase "guaranteed human" on most of their bumpers.

Maybe 2 out of 3 yards in my neighborhood have anti AI/data center signs in their yards.

Very few things unify people to this extent. Free software "leaders" are on the wrong side of history on this issue and need to get out of the house more to understand why.

We’re currently working on Parch Immutable, an immutable edition of Parch GNU/Linux that is planned to become the foundation of our future commercial project, Apadana.

Right now, Parch Immutable is built around bootc, and we’re testing its potential as a stable, lightweight, and modern operating system for personal desktops.

In the initial beta release, software installation will primarily be handled through Flatpak. We’re also shipping Distrobox and Waydroid by default, allowing users to run additional Linux software and Android applications without compromising the base system.

Our primary desktop environment remains KDE Plasma. We’ve also made contributions to KDE from time to time, particularly around Persian localization and translation.

We’re planning to bring the same architecture to Parch Mobile as well, with an experimental build coming soon for testing.

We’d genuinely appreciate your technical feedback, ideas, and suggestions that could help us improve Parch Immutable and, more broadly, contribute to the growth of the free and open-source software ecosystem in Iran and internationally.

Zeno's arrow doesn't move — flawless logic, absurd conclusion. A closed system can be internally perfect and entirely false. Now look at the apps in your pocket.

The walled garden. The opaque interface. The LLM that narrates without ever consulting the world. Coherence without correspondence. Stories without ground.

Truth is not a property. It's a relation — between the mind and what is not the mind. Closing the hood isn't bad UX. It's a refusal of the other. And the refusal of the other is the refusal of ethics.

If you talk about #AI in the #Federation, you’re quickly attacked.

Yesterday I mentioned #Omarchy #Linux—not to promote it. It represents the world we’re now entering. You can reject all this AI and #agent #coding, but it’s here to stay; it’s not going away.
Linux is the number one platform where this will take place—at a breathtaking speed. And I firmly believe that the classic #OpenSource scene, just like the rest of the world, needs to emancipate itself in this regard.

There are the #OpenWeights AI models; if we take off our blinders and stop being afraid all the time, we can build our own infrastructure. The last six months have changed the world. It’s a turning point in human #history that cannot be overstated. I don’t think the comparison to the invention of the steam engine—which is always brought up—is all that far off. No one can predict the #future, but it will be different from today—that much is certain. #oss
