GitHub's Continuous Integration checks passed OK.

It's up to someone else to merge it.

No one ever replied to my email to macports-dev re: 1.0.0.

I also see, there's a 0.9.36 release which was tagged around the same time as 1.0.1, so if folks do encounter issues (despite my efforts at being proactive, no one apparently cared enough to chime in to my inquiry?) maybe there is an alternative to submit if such things are experienced!

My apologies for the delay! Though I check repology.org with some frequency (usually several times on any given day) it didn't seem to pick up that snac was behind upstream. Good thing I thought to check the Codeberg repository independently I guess!

Big news for the AI ecosystem! Major tech giants including OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, AWS, Cursor, and Vercel have joined forces to launch Agent Plugins 1.0.0, a new open, vendor-neutral standard for AI extensions.

The goal? A true "build once, run anywhere" model for AI tools.

Instead of rewriting and packaging extensions separately for every individual platform, developers can now build unified plugins that run seamlessly across different AI clients.

Key Highlights:

* The Steering Committee: Governed by OpenAI, AWS, Microsoft, Cursor, and Vercel, with Google joining as a core maintainer.
* How It Works: Leverages a minimal folder structure with a root plugin.json manifest, bundling custom instructions (Agent Skills) with Anthropic's Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers.
* Immediate Support: Major environments like ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, Cursor, VS Code, and AWS Kiro are already embracing the format.
By standardizing how AI agents connect to data and tools, this open specification is a massive step forward in reducing developer friction and accelerating the adoption of agentic AI.

Ich war nie ein Fan vom AUR, von PPAs oder von Copr. Mit der generellen Warnung habe ich mich immer zurückgehalten. Damit ist jetzt Schluss.

Seit Juni laufen 3 Angriffswellen über das Arch User Repository. Über 1500 kompromittierte Pakete, eBPF-Rootkit, Rust-Infostealer, ein Tor-gestützter SSH-Wurm. Seit dem 1. August sind alle Pushes gesperrt.

Mein Fazit: Die Verantwortung liegt bei Arch, nicht bei den Nutzern.

☀️ Hitze, 🛋️ Wochenende, 🥱 Langeweile – was macht man da?

Genau: Sinnfreie Statusseiten mit eigenem Design bauen. 😄

Da sich unser tolles Werkzeug #UptimeKuma ja so *hervorragend* designen lässt (Ja! Das war dezente Kritik. Dennoch: Danke für dieses tolle Stück Software! ;) - musste ich für die Optik mit der API ran.

Für zwei von drei Welten gibt es nun kleine eigene Statusseiten die zwar schon bestanden und auch weiterhin bleiben, aber eben im eigenem Kuma-Design.
Beide greifen auf die API ihres jeweiligen Origins zu:

🌐 #AWsite – mit eigener Subdomain:
https://status.weindl.biz

🌐 #FEROX – bekommt einen Pfad:
https://ferox.cc/status

Einzig #AWiT bleibt vorerst beim Kuma-Standarddesign. AWiT bekommt aber in absehbarer Zeit ein komplettes Redesign, sobald die Vereinsgründung abgeschlossen ist.

Nun aber: Weil ich heute durch einen anderen Post auf den Geschmack gekommen bin, heißt es jetzt #Couchen und #DemolitionMan in OV schauen. 📺

Sanfte Grüße 🌙 und wer Probleme mit seinem Bidet hat -> die 3 Muscheln benutzen!

GameHub 0.1.1 is Now Available on Parch Linux! 🎮

We are thrilled to announce that GameHub version 0.1 has officially landed in the Parch Linux repository.

What GameHub Does
GameHub is designed to be your central control room for gaming on Parch Linux. Instead of manually configuring everything in the terminal, this tool simplifies your entire setup process. You can effortlessly install various popular game launchers directly through its interface. It also removes the friction of Linux gaming by allowing you to easily download, set up, and manage different versions of Proton for maximum game compatibility. Additionally, GameHub gives you the ability to create and launch a dedicated Steam session straight from the app, helping you jump right into your games with an optimized environment.

We Need Your Feedback
Because GameHub is still in its early stages of active development, we are relying on our community to help shape its future. There is still a long road ahead to a stable 1.0 release. If you encounter any bugs, crashes, or simply have ideas for new features to make Linux gaming even better, please reach out to us. You can share your experiences on the Parch forum or open an issue directly on our GitHub page:

https://github.com/parchlinux/gamehub/issues

How to Install
To get started with GameHub on Parch Linux, simply open your terminal and run the following commands:

sudo pacman -Syu
sudo pacman -S gamehub

After a grueling 2,000-hour nationwide internet shutdown in Iran, international connectivity has finally returned to the Parch Linux servers.

This prolonged outage completely destroyed our SEO. Searching for our project yielded zero results for months, which took a massive toll on our visibility and progress. Now that we are back online, I am trying to figure out how to rebuild the lost trust of our international users and effectively promote the project again. Unfortunately, open-source news outlets have rarely covered us unless we directly request a feature.

Despite these hurdles, I am incredibly relieved that the connection is restored and people outside of Iran can finally see our work once more.

Hoping for freedom.
