OmniMem v2.1.1 is out, and the 2.x branch is all about one thing: spending fewer tokens.

OmniMem is my open-source MCP server that gives Claude Code persistent memory across sessions, projects, and machines. Every time the agent calls a tool, the descriptions and response payloads eat into your context window. 25+ tools adds up fast, so v2.x.x changes this and reduces usage of tokens.

Processing

I've only skimmed this nice post.
Thorough reading will follow later

Some highlights which resonate with me *as flageolets on a string instrument* are captured here in screenshots I've made on an Android

• Many tools still work exactly as they did (decades ago)

• The feeBSD handbook taught me an enormous ammount, more than many of my University courses, including things that had nothing to do with freeBSD specifically

• This is vital

• The handbook taught me the right approach

  understand first, act second

This is a principle I use since I've been a peuter (NL).

• Analyze what occured
• understand why it occured
• find out under what circumstances it can occur
• close or limit those conditions
• fix the problem by repairing, cooling, modifying the break
• analyse the proposed fix before implementing
• Only replace when all other methods fail or repair is more expensive than replacement

#Manjaro #Linux #LinuxGaming #OpenSource #ManjaroLinux

Over the past few days and weeks, I’ve decided to downsize my digital and tech collection. I own so many computers, laptops, smartphones, smartwatches, accessories, and so on—I can never really use it all. I bought a lot of it just to own the latest “hot stuff.”

That’s why I’ve gotten rid of most of it—either giving it away or selling it for very little. And I’ve kept only the bare essentials. Often not even the newest or best.

For example: I now only use my Peladn Mini-PC with an old Ryzen 5 5500U as my computer; I don’t even use the newer, faster ones to their full potential, so I gave them away. I’ve now reinstalled Debian Stable on it, with an absolute minimum of programs—just the bare essentials: browser, LibreOffice, Tuta, Signal, VLC, Nextcloud, Localsend, Rustdesk.

I’ve moved away from Fedora because: Fedora = Red Hat = IBM = US Big Tech = US MAGA fascists.

I’m also saying goodbye to Proton and will only use Tuta and Posteo from now on.

All my new smartphones like the S25 Ultra, Pixel 10 Pro XL, etc., are gone; I’ve kept the cute Pixel 8a in beautiful blue, very compact, running GrapheneOS. That’s more than enough—it lasts almost 3 days, and here too, I’ve installed only the absolute essentials.

I recently saw this news on the technology community lemmy.world/post/44224445 and got very disappointed with the way things are going with this browser.

I started using it to do my part against the chromium monopoly, but Mozilla is making too many bad decisions in my opinion.

I’ve heard about forks like Librewolf and Waterfox.

Which alternatives would you recommend? Do you use any of them? What are your thoughts on them?

@FuturisticRobert @fuchsiii I think that's the fundamental unfixable problem of publicly traded corporations because they are legally mandated to maximize ROI for shareholders at an exponential rate they'll inevitably hit a ceiling.

• Even if that means they run out of humans and businesses that ain't already buying all their stuff and subscribing to everything.
  • This is why #Microsoft stopped caring about #consumers as they basically "owned" the #desktoplinux with #WindowsXP and until they killed #Windows7 & #Windows10 any other OS was a *"statistical #RoundingError"...
    
  • All for #Linux to win is to not #enshittify at the same or faster pace than #Windows11...

Per contrast, #Valve (which is owned predominantly by #GabeN and only has marginal amounts of (non-traded!) stocks with it's employees) is also doing great without #enshittifiying #Steam.

• Mostly because #Steam can't afford to mistreat it's customers longterm, as being convenient for said users is what sets them apart from any other store...
  • The only reason they pivoted to Linux is because #GabeNewell realized the frontal attack #Windows8Bing and #Windows10S are on his company and that it's a horrible gamble to not assume #Windows trying to monopolize #Apps and #Games #distribution wouldn't cull Steam.
  • Not that they like #OpenSource, because their #BusinessModel is diametrically opposite by virtue of selling access to #CCSS. It's just that they know that Microsoft could otherwise choke them to death so fast and brutal that they'd end up bankrupt faster than #Gawker when #peterThiel decided to literally "sue them into bankrupcy"...

Which makes Gaben propably the only publicly known #billionaire that isn't hated.

• Or maybe it's his and thus Valve's #AntiAI - Stance that #Gamers love...

Termux

• license: GNU GPL Open Source
• development: active
• users: more than I can imagine

Termux which is the powerful Linux sh environment for Android is constantly under attack by Google

I've installed it on many different Androids with different versions and classes of the Android operating system

The direct reaction of the Play Store daemon is the same.

Warning Termux is an unsafe program!

wtf?

Why does google lie and stay that Termux is a program that should not be trusted?

This is a false and blatant deceptive action of Google, who is snooping on the Android phone, your personal property, because Termux gives you the flexibility to look at things which Google tries to hide from you on your own phone!

The Termux distribution is regularly patched and updated just like any other regular Linux distribution which is properly maintained

Keep installing Termux it gives you freedom on your Androids

Die Manjaro-Krise 2026: Ein Schiff das schon lange sinkt - ein ausführlicher Kommentar

I'm seeing a lot of #opensource #freesoftware projects take more lax stances on code generated by LLMs, the justification being that banning it outright will lead to contributors simply not saying they used #ai . This seems like a difficult problem to me... I kind of wish there was a way to solve this so projects didn't have to accept AI slop, but I have no idea what that would be, especially in the context of a huge project like #kde . Any ideas?

The latest iteration of my #PCB to replace the tail lights in my #EV #Mustang arrived earlier from JLC. Looks like 5th times the charm. I managed to actually get this version to do something.

I just shipped a real release of my bible-reader project.

It’s a terminal-first Python tool for daily Bible reading. It can import compatible WorldBiblePlans EPUBs, split them into day-by-day files, extract scripture-only readings, and track progress through the plan.

I also just added a changelog, automated GitHub releases, a license, contribution guidelines, and issue/PR templates, so it’s starting to feel like a real open-source project instead of just “script in a repo.” 😄

Hey folks! 👋

Wanted to share a project I've been working on — HXR. It's a Python-based reconnaissance framework designed to streamline bug bounty workflows.

What's inside:
✦ Subdomain enum + tech fingerprinting
✦ Crawler + parameter discovery
✦ Automated screenshots
✦ Vulnerability scanner (XSS, Open Redirect, etc)
✦ API endpoint finder from JS
✦ Report generator

The good stuff:
• Works on Linux, Windows, macOS, and Termux
• Auto-installs dependencies on first run
• Clean, readable output
• Modular — pick and choose features

(2/3) I create highly modular app architectures and try to implement each module with off-the-shelf #opensource components. I only use generated code to fill in the gaps, and I strictly separate code and design so that I can easily refactor the design later if needed.

FosseryWeb project report:
I regenerated the CSS cheatsheets with the new page-builders tool, to improve the consistency of the cheatsheets and discover some more cases I which weren't handled yet in page-builders (e.g. unordered list conversion, link pointing to another cheatsheet, comma in cheatsheet title, etc.), and I also corrected a few mistakes in the cheatsheets which somehow I didn't notice earlier (e.g. a section missing from the online and Markdown version of the CSS Selectors Cheatsheet, but included in the ODT version). And also, I removed the heading hooks from the Markdown versions, because they aren't supported by all programs (e.g. Joplin just displays them as plain text), and replaced the color gradient divs with image files in the online version of the CSS Backgrounds Cheatsheet, so now they can be displayed correctly in Pale Moon and Seamonkey browsers.

It's really hard to use other DEs after Gnome. Besides, it's the only DE with proper touchpad support instead of just dragging a cursor across the screen.
No unnecessary buttons: getting to the main attraction requires the perfect three-finger swipe. It's a good thing they aren't in the underwear business. Or maybe it's actually a pity.
The downside, as usual, is Flatpak, which I think is absolute shit. But hey, at least it's not Snap, so thank God for that.

Meta is discontinuing end-to-end encryption for Instagram messaging this May.

This highlights the core issue with proprietary platforms: privacy is treated as a revocable privilege, not a fundamental right. When a company owns the infrastructure, they own the "off" switch for your security.

Open-source alternatives like Matrix or Signal offer consistent, verifiable encryption that doesn't depend on a corporate roadmap.

A new pull request for Vulnerability-Lookup adds a CSAF producer that publishes advisories for many manufacturers.

This is great for defenders and researchers, as it increases the amount of detailed vulnerability information available.

It will push the number of ingested feeds to more than 50 unique sources, highlighting the growing diversity of our data sources.

If someone tells you there is a single source of truth for vulnerability information, they’re ignoring the reality: vulnerability intelligence comes from many different sources.

Thanks to @rafi0t for the continuous work on adding CSAF and feeds to vulnerability-lookup

Escrevi meu primeiro plugin para o niri + DankMaterialShell — e documentei o caminho até funcionar 🐧

A ideia era simples: exibir a versão do kernel e o uptime do sistema direto na barra, sem abrir terminal. Resultado: `6.19.6-arch1-1 ⏱ 7h 54m`.

O que parecia meia hora virou um aprendizado sobre:
→ QML e a API de plugins do Quickshell
→ Qual sinal usar (`onStreamFinished`, não `onStreamEnded`)
→ Cache agressivo do DMS que ignora alterações em arquivo
→ `/proc/uptime` + awk como alternativa mais confiável ao `uptime -p`

O atalho mais útil do processo: usar o próprio código-fonte do DMS como documentação. `grep -r` em `/usr/share/quickshell/dms/` resolve mais rápido do que qualquer busca externa.

⭐ Announcing a Major Architectural Update to RIFT ⭐

RIFT has undergone a complete rearchitecture to enhance its modularity, extensibility, and usability. An experimental build has been released on our GitHub repository, while the stable build remains available. The experimental build will continue to receive updates and improvements over time.

❓ What is RIFT?

RIFT is a valuable tool for reverse engineers, designed to generate on-demand FLIRT signatures for Rust binaries.

❗ What's new?

⚙️ Three Operation Modes:
- File Analysis Mode: Point RIFT directly at a binary.
- Direct Generation Mode: Target specific crate versions and compiler combinations.
- HTTP API Server Mode: Run RIFT as a service with an async job queue.

🔧 Modernized Ida Pro Plugin: The Ida Plugin has been rebuilt with server integration, enabling FLIRT signature generation while reversing without needing to leave the window.

For more details, visit: https://github.com/microsoft/RIFT

Hello, Fediverse!

I think it's time for an #introduction to the broader audience of the fediverse.

We're the Dark Blue Project, an independent project based in Germany, which publishes content about free and open source software and educate about it. Our primary mission is to inform people about free and open source software and help them with using it.

At the time of writing this, the project is under active construction. Feel free to let a follow here and stay tuned for exciting things coming in the future.

See you!

command

ntfy

Today I read the brief synopsis of ntfy Android. I saw there that via linux the control and operation is fairly simple & straightforward

I went to the site and started reading.

ntfy via linux is easy to use

• simple HTTP PUT/POST commands are used

sh

curl -d "Backup successful 😀" ntfy.sh/mytopic

a.out

ntfy publish mytopic

"Backup successful 😀"

HTML

POST /mytopic HTTP/1.1
Host: ntfy.sh

Backup successful 😀

javascript

fetch('https://ntfy.sh/mytopic', {
    method: 'POST', // PUT works too
    body: 'Backup successful 😀'
})

golang

http.Post("https://ntfy.sh/mytopic", "text/plain",
   strings.NewReader("Backup successful 😀"))

python

requests.post("https://ntfy.sh/mytopic",
    data="Backup successful 😀".encode(encoding='utf-8'))

php

file_get_contents('https://ntfy.sh/mytopic', false, stream_context_create([
    'http' => [
        'method' => 'POST', // PUT also works
        'header' => 'Content-Type: text/plain',
        'content' => 'Backup successful 😀'
    ]
]));

A dark image. The background is unclear and blurry. On the foreground on the left there is a huge circle, inside of which a profile picture belonging to @rileytestut@mastodon.social. On the other side, a bit lower in the frame we see a fediverse logo, but on fire. This is the logo of the Fireside Fedi show. In between those two elements a text is written.

Heute wieder 3 Stunden damit verbracht, ein Tool zu konfigurieren, das mir 20 Minuten Arbeit erspart. Das Beste daran? Es ist Open Source, also hab ich noch 2 Stunden den Quellcode gelesen, obwohl ich ihn nie ändern werde. Produktivität 📈

RE: https://chaos.social/@davidak/116205913072553471

After some research today it becomes clear that you can't have a linux system without running LLM generated code, since the linux kernel itself and also systemd has it.

Maybe not running LLM generated code becomes a niche thing like running linux-libre and libreboot. It is not something the average user can achieve.

We need a more specific approach to handle software with LLM contributions.

Wenn aus Gedanken etwas wächst, das bleibt!

Viele Menschen haben den Eindruck, dass sich der Blick verschoben hat. Erfolg wird häufig daran gemessen, wie schnell etwas wächst, wie viel Aufmerksamkeit es bekommt oder welchen Profit es erzeugt. In dieser Logik bleibt wenig Raum für das, was früher oft im Mittelpunkt stand, die Idee, gemeinsam etwas zu schaffen, das länger besteht als der eigene Vorteil.

Dabei waren viele der Dinge, die unsere Welt geprägt haben, nie nur aus persönlichem Gewinn entstanden. Sie wurden von Menschen getragen, die an eine Überzeugung glaubten – Menschen, die etwas entwickeln wollten, das anderen hilft, Wissen zugänglich macht oder eine Gemeinschaft stärkt. Der Antrieb war nicht nur Erfolg, sondern Bedeutung.

How does a volunteer-run Linux distro comply with a $7,500 per-user fine? They can't. These "Age Assurance" bills are a death sentence for privacy-focused, open-source operating systems. Keep the OS neutral. 🐧✊ #OpenSource #Linux #DigitalRights

@GrapheneOS @attilax @LearnToLivePrivate @RustRaven @jmoupah @Yrrussaj @sebsauvage @jolla Hey Graphene OS folks.

First, it's really great that you guys have created a security focused deGoogled Android operating system.

Given the problems of American big tech, I applaud you for creating an alternative.

So full credit where credit is due.

That being said, constantly badmouthing every other non-Apple and non-Google smartphone maker and operating system is not a good look.

And jumping into any thread on Mastodon where there's a mention of another alternative smartphone maker or OS to badmouth them is not a good look.

You say Jolla is no good. SailfishOS is no good. Fairphone is no good. Murena is no good. CalyxOS is no good. Dumbphones are no good.

I'd imagine you'd probably win more people over if you talked more about why people should choose Graphene instead why they shouldn't choose one of the others.

Because right now, there are tradeoffs with every mobile OS.

That includes Graphene.

For example, there are people for whom limiting their exposure to Google and Apple is more important than choosing the most locked down option available.

For such people, needing to buy a Google Pixel phone to run Graphene is a massive negative.

That's even if the Google Pixel is the best hardware from a security perspective.

And in that case, yeah there are other options that may be a better fit for those people.

There's another issue.

There seems to be many Reddit threads and YouTube videos and blogs out there from people who were enthusiastic about Graphene, but have soured on it.

And the funny thing is there's a pattern to it. "Cult-like" and "toxic" seems to be phrases that tend to be used a lot.

I've also noticed a recurring pattern you put for why the other alternatives are bad is because people connected with those businesses or companies badmouth Graphene.

It seems to me like Graphene constantly bags those other projects. When anyone connected with those projects responds, that response is presented by you guys as evidence of bullying and harassment, without that context.

And the recurring line about how people should just stick with iOS or Google Android if they don't choose Graphene? Just shameful. And completely misses the point of why some people are looking for alternative platforms in the first place.

And the more people who choose an alternative OS, the more normal it becomes to do it, which ultimately leads to more people looking at alternatives like Graphene.
