jrollans.com is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
Every sufficiently complex software system will eventually have security flaws.
So "Has this platform ever had a serious vulnerability?" isn't a particularly useful measure of its security.
A better question is: What happens when one is found?
I wrote about the patch gap, Drupal's coordinated security process, and how Drupal Steward can add network-level protection while organizations test and deploy a critical patch.

[...] Den Anstoß für DAWO gab laut dem niederländischen Tech-Portal Tweakers, auf das sich The Register beruft, unter anderem die Erfahrung mit US-Sanktionen gegen den Internationalen Strafgerichtshof (ICC) in Den Haag. Microsoft kappte das E-Mail-Konto des damaligen Chefanklägers Karim Khan. Das zeigte, dass der Zugang zu zentralen digitalen Werkzeugen von politischen Entscheidungen der US-Regierung abhängen kann.

A question for fellow open-source maintainers:
Imagine someone uses AI to redevelop your tool in Rust. The result barely works, but they reuse your project’s name and repeatedly jump into discussions about the existing project to promote their version.
How would you handle that? I’m usually a nice guy, but I still think that if someone keeps crashing your party, at some point you’re allowed to remind them they weren’t actually invited.
Auch die Niederlande haben aus den Vorfällen der letzten Zeit gelernt und steigen auf freie und offene Software um.
I’ve used Evernote for almost a decade, mostly for organizing work projects. But the winning combination of ever increasing subscription costs, reduced features (fewer devices synced, limits on number of notes), and the cramming of unwanted AI into the software has meant that I’ve finally jumped ship. I’ve moved my husband and I over to Joplin, synced to our NAS via WebDAV, and it works great.

🛠️ Tool: AI Website Cloner Template
===================
A GitHub template repo packages a repeatable workflow for one specific job: pointing an AI coding agent at a live URL and having it rebuild the site as a clean Next.js application. The repo is JCodesMore/ai-website-cloner-template, MIT licensed. Per the README, the flow is meant to start from a single agent command: /clone-website https://example.com.
What it does
The agent needs browser access enabled. It navigates the target site, inspects its structure, and generates a Next.js recreation rather than a raw scrape. After the initial build, iteration is conversational: request changes, and the agent edits the project it generated. A demo section on the README shows a side-by-side comparison of an original site and the produced app.
Supported agents
Claude Code is the recommended path, with the README stating best results with "Claude Code + Opus 5.5" (quoted as written in the source; that version string is worth cross-checking against current docs). Codex CLI, OpenCode, and Cursor are listed as supported.
Setup
Two documented paths. Agent-assisted: paste a ready-made prompt and the agent clones the repo, removes the origin remote, installs dependencies, and runs npm run check. Manual: the GitHub "Use this template" button, then clone, install, and run the same check. After that, the operational step is just the slash command with the target URL.
Use cases
• Recreating a landing page or marketing site as a starting point for a redesign
• Prototyping a Next.js frontend without rebuilding markup and CSS by hand
• Studying page structure from generated code instead of browser dev tools
Limitations
• The "clone any website with one command" framing is the maintainers' claim; no benchmark is published in the repo, and not tested here
• Quality depends on the agent, the model, and working browser access; the README does not document constraints for dynamic sites or large page trees
• Per-run cost is real. The README exposes a token-usage badge, so the maintainers apparently track it; budget accordingly
One note for this audience: a workflow that copies your own site can copy someone else's, and a faithful clone of your public pages is exactly what a phishing kit wants. The repo does not address misuse at all, which is a documentation gap rather than a stated purpose. Worth knowing before recommending it to non-technical colleagues.

Ansible Grundlagen: Automatisierung für Linux-Administratoren
In modernen IT-Infrastrukturen gehört die manuelle Konfiguration einzelner Server über interaktive SSH-Sitzungen der Vergangenheit an. Wer Dutzende oder Hunderte Linux-Maschinen verwalten muss, stößt mit klassischen Ad-hoc-Skripten schnell an Grenzen: Fehlende Idempotenz, inkonsistente Paketstände und unübersichtliche Konfigurationsabweichungen (Configuration Drift) führen zu instabilen Umgebungen. Genau an dieser Stelle etabliert sich #Ansible als Industriestandard für Configuration Management, Bereitstellung und Orchestrierung.

Symfony Mate passed half a million downloads on Packagist this weekend. It started as a prototype I got running on a train through Switzerland with no internet, tested against a local model because that was all I had.
The Mate Journey tells how it got there: a quiet rivalry with symfony/ai, a conference in Amsterdam, a pull request I sent without asking first, and why I stopped defending my own version.

Rabbithole #Rechtschreibkorrektur : Ich habe den "Fehler" gemacht, und mir die #Datenschutzerklärung der #OpenSource Rechtschreibkorrektur #LanguageTool angeschaut und habe mir damit etwas die Laune versaut. "Texte (...) werden in der Regel nicht gespeichert", aber "die von uns erhobenen Inhalte umfassen auch (...) deine Browser-Sitzung sowie die Inhalte von Websites, die du bei der Nutzung unserer Browser-Erweiterungen besuchst."
To my mind, #Luanti/#Voxelibre (or perhaps Luanti/Mineclonia) is sort of the best "platformer" game that all #Linux Distros would do well to include in a default install (or at least offer to easily install, just like offering to install 3rd-party multimedia codecs).
There's a huge number of low-spec hardware (as in, weaker video chips) that linux gets installed onto, and Luanti/Voxelibre would still work well on that hardware. Like Voxelibre should be the new Minesweeper or Solitaire. I look at it as an achievement that the #OpenSource community got this to work at all - and with network gameplay!
A close second would be #Veloren - second only because it needs beefier video hardware (an Nvidia 1080 or better), thereby missing out on all that "lowest common denominator" business-video-chip hardware.

Despite receiving major offers, the project is staying focused on building a social platform designed to last — one that can grow to 100M+ users while creating a sustainable model for creators and admins.
In a social media world driven by profit, choosing independence is a powerful statement.
Maybe the future of social media can be built differently.

Immich and FUTO expose a systemic issue across consumer Open Source: maintainers need to pay rent.
If users donated a fraction of what they save by ditching Big Tech, outside backers would not be necessary. Consumer FLOSS has virtually no enterprise clients to fund development through corporate support.
Expecting free labor and judging how people secure their livelihood without ever contributing a single cent is hypocritical.
Down To Earth’s new look at Europe’s open-source shift points to a bigger idea: digital commons need everyday tools. InlineStyle’s workspace brings notes, docs and project boards together in an ad-free cloud. https://www.inlinestyle.it/ #opensource #EU #privacy

So finally read the at least the Pidgin part of https://op-co.de/blog/posts/emoji_xmpp_address/ and honestly considering just dropping #XMPP entirely from Pidgin 3 and even our server.
To put it nicely, the greater XMPP community hasn't exactly been kind to us over the years and really I'm starting to wondering why we continue to give them ammo.
Since the XMPP support in Pidgin 3 is currently just a skeleton, scrapping it isn't all that crazy.
So what do you all think?

Debian is obviously a rock-solid choice for CERN. With their massive software ecosystem and community, it makes total sense why they went that route. But part of me can't help but wonder what a NetBSD-powered Large Hadron Collider would look like! ⚛️
NetBSD’s hardware portability just seems like a perfect match for lab. Plus, using pkgsrc to manage complex scientific software seamlessly across all those different niche architectures would be incredible to see at that scale.

Whatever your opinion on LLM-assisted coding is, this is impressive, and in my opinion super useful. Open source replacements for 7 popular Adobe apps, including Photoshop, written in Rust. They expect to have 100% parity in a month. Over the past 20 years, I've been hearing people complain about the lack of Photoshop in Linux. Well, apparently, here it is. Fully open source and free to use. AI is powering a huge boost for open source software, whether someone wants to accept it or not.

FediSuite 2.0 is live! 🎉
If you run several Fediverse accounts, you might know the feeling: an idea is sitting in a note somewhere, a scheduled post is in another tab, and the numbers end up somewhere else again. I wanted to bring it all together.
The new #Planner takes a post from the first idea to publication. #Drafts save automatically. In the #ContentCalendar, you can see scheduled posts by month or week and move them to another time. #Campaigns group posts around a topic or event. Coloured #labels help you stay organised without ever appearing as hashtags.
After publishing, the searchable #archive helps you find and reuse your work. You can turn older posts into new drafts, collect evergreen content and spot posts that have become interesting again.
#ContentAnalysis compares formats, text lengths, links and more. Hints based on your own data appear while you write, and the #calendar shows promising time slots. For Mastodon-compatible accounts, the new #CommunityAnalysis shows which accounts interact with your posts, who is new and who keeps coming back. #Favourites, #boosts and #replies stay separate. These are ideas to try, not promises of more reach.
There’s a lot of work under the hood, too: access tokens for connected accounts are now stored encrypted, sessions expire, and one-time links have better protection.
FediSuite is still open source, free to use, without ads or trackers, and available to self-host. The web app supports more than 20 Fediverse platforms.
Give it a try: https://www.fedisuite.com/
I’d love to hear your thoughts and ideas. And if something isn’t working quite right, please tell me that too. 💜

🛠️ Tool
===================
Kav is an open-source Android application designed for navigating public transport in Israel. It provides trip planning, live bus tracking, and navigation without ads, user accounts, or analytics.
Key Features
• Trip planning with step-by-step navigation, including a floating window for tracking when the app is backgrounded.
• Live bus tracking via notification shade and Android 16 live updates.
• Offline map support. The app fetches a 176MB map on first launch and caches it locally, ensuring no tile server sees user location.
• Private search enabled by default to keep location data out of search queries.
• Departure boards, favorite places, and local backups to a .kav file.
Technical Implementation
The app is built for Android 8.0+ and licensed under GPL-3.0. It uses MapLibre and Protomaps for rendering OpenStreetMap data. Transit timetables are derived from the Israel Ministry of Transport's GTFS feed. Trip planning and live positions are sourced from Moovit.
Users install the app by downloading the APK from the GitHub releases page. The app includes a self-update mechanism. Developers looking to contribute or build the app locally can utilize the provided script tools/android_toolchain.sh which fetches the required JDK and Android SDK. The timetable data is not included in the repository due to licensing ambiguities from the Ministry of Transport, so builders must run tools/fetch.sh and tools/export_web_bundle.py to generate the necessary regional bundles.
Use Cases
This tool is primarily for Israeli residents or visitors who want a minimal, privacy-respecting alternative to Moovit. It is suitable for users who prefer offline maps and want to avoid ad-heavy transit applications.
Limitations
The app is currently distributed outside of standard app stores. While it uses Moovit's data for live positions, it does not replicate Moovit's social features or account-based syncing. Note: haven't tested personally.

New post: Laya vs Jev, ten days later 🧠⚖️
Ten days ago I benchmarked two "System One" decision models for my LLM router: Jev (TypeSafe, hosted) was usable as-is, Laya (open weights) zero-shot was not. Laya's README says "fine-tune me", so I did, on a 16 GB M4 MacBook.
🔁 Laya 0.3.6 → 0.3.24: 18 releases, but the weights are byte-identical. Same numbers.
🆕 New open rivals on my 80-prompt bench:
• Laya typed-decisions: 71% topic, but never confident → over-provisions everything
• Von 1.3: closest to gold out of the box (48%), but over-confident
• Kev-0.8B: 81% topic, 100% multilingual, very under-confident
Jev 1.13: 89% topic, 72.5% same route as gold, still the only one usable as-is.
🎯 Fine-tuning Laya on my own labels (not Jev's: distilling Jev is against TypeSafe's terms):
• 480 labelled prompts → 1,920 training items
• official Apple Silicon script, MPS
• 41.5 min for 4 epochs, 15.4 GB peak memory
• rule of thumb: ~6 s per labelled prompt
Results:
• topic 59% → 85%
• complexity 45% → 72.5% (= Jev)
• risk 31% → 69% (> Jev)
• but 0% confident answers 🙃 → a temperature fitted on held-out data (T=0.87) fixes it
• same route as gold: 20% → 64% (Jev 72.5%), routed cost $1.28 vs Jev's $1.35
Caveats in the post: same labeller for train and test, tiny groups, and it under-provisions 9 prompts vs 3 for Jev.
🏠 Then the reality check: I replayed 80 real Home Assistant decisions (VMC, shutters, water, watering) through Jev and stock Laya.
• Laya English answers ~0.5 to everything, and cuts 64/80 requests (512-token window; my prompts grew to 1–1.9k tokens with history)
• Laya multilingual says "yes" to almost everything, including "normal" (0.97) to a night-time leak 💧
• Jev in the house: VMC disagreements with the rule went from 100% to 6% once it got history. Half a cent per day.
So the house stays on Jev. The local path is clear though: fine-tune on my own feedback labels, not on Jev's answers.

Things have been very quiet here over the last few months, for various reasons: summer, vacation, health, and also because I’ve been watching developments around the world.
And, of course, especially what’s been going on in the Fascist States of America. And since the arrival of the dumbest president (not just in the U.S.) of all time—the sexist, racist, fascist, and brainless, uneducated moron with the cognitive development and vocabulary of a five-year-old - Donald Trump -
nothing good has ever come of it. The whole world sees it, except for the Americans. For the most part, they believe the bullshit their president lies about and stirs up.
This is also because the U.S. tech bros like Musk, Zuck, and radical evangelical-fascist leaders like Thiel exploit the president’s intellectual shortcomings for their own agenda. And that agenda is the subjugation of free society under AI-driven tech fascism.
Somehow, despite all my efforts, I was always dependent on US tech to a very small extent. Whether it was Fedora for Linux, Pixel phones for GrapheneOS, or even a few remaining Google services like YouTube. But now that’s over! Even though Fedora worked best out of all the Linux distributions, after much consideration I’ve decided to make a complete and permanent switch to Debian. Partly because I hope that, unlike other distros, Debian won’t integrate AI.
And even if I’m going to upset a lot of Americans right now by picking on their God-sent president—that’s what the whole world (except the U.S.) thinks of Trump. No one takes him seriously; everyone laughs at him. But like a criminal mafioso, he’s blackmailing the free world. Well, he is one, after all.
I hope for the sake of the U.S. and humanity that the country can free itself from the stranglehold of this radical evangelical fascist gang of Republicans and Trump in time, before it’s too late, and that the world will thereby become a better place again.

That's what the new Keep the Why Globe does: it follows explicit reasoning links across repositories, one hop at a time.
Each repository stays authoritative for its own reasoning. There is no graph database and no central project-memory service.

One of the things I’m really excited about in Parch Linux is GameHub, our all-in-one tool for managing game launchers and #Proton.
We’re working on a feature that I think will be especially useful for people who #LinuxGaming: simply search for a game by title and see how well it runs on your system.
Instead of guessing whether a game will work, digging through different compatibility reports, or installing it just to find out, GameHub will give you that information right where you need it.
It’s still coming soon, but I’m really looking forward to seeing this become part of the Parch experience.
And as always, it’s being built by the #ParchLinux community, with #FreeSoftware and user freedom in mind.

Parch Linux Hyperland has been released by the Parch community, and I’m proud to say that the Parch project in Iran has, at the very least, managed to bring a new generation of young people interested in technology closer to #FreeSoftware and its philosophy.
This entire edition of Parch Linux was developed by young people under the age of 20. And honestly, this is the only Parch edition where, as the main maintainer, I simply acted as a supervisor and didn’t actually write or develop anything myself.
Unlike many other distributions that ship with #Hyprland and tend to be highly #opinionated, Parch takes a different approach. We want to give users a clean and flexible starting point rather than imposing a specific workflow or philosophy on them.
We’ve also published our monthly report covering the past month, where you can read more about what the Parch community has been working on.
You can find it on the #ParchLinux blog. :)
