        Zionist and sex lives aside, we're watching a major battle for the future of Open Source software.

        The true story imo is a landscape of closed cloud LLM companies (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) who are tightly aligned with the US defense industry.

        They are lobbying for essentially the mandatory DRMing of LLM models and the outlawing of open weight models.

        Jensen is STRONGLY in favor of open sourcing core LLM technology.

        images.nvidia.com/pdf/Open-Wei

        In the 1980s, early open-source software pioneers challenged the prevailing belief that software
would advance only if companies kept tight control over their code. This movement pushed for a transparent
ecosystem where developers around the world could study, modify, and improve software. Software
developed by the open-source community now supports most of the internet and underlies systems used by
the world’s largest technology companies, as well as the U.S. military and federal agencies conducting
scientific research, cybersecurity, and other critical missions. Open source did more than lower the cost of
software; it created a shared foundation of knowledge on which generations of American engineers and
entrepreneurs built their institutional sovereignty.
The United States now faces a similar choice with artificial intelligence. Our AI leadership will be
judged not by one frontier AI model, but by whether the United States builds a strong, open ecosystem that
diffuses into every sector. This is essential for creating opportunities for innovation and prosperity across
the country. It requires expanding access to AI, encouraging competition, robust application layers, and
giving Americans greater control over the technology they rely on. Open weight models—AI models that
anyone can download, inspect, modify, and run on their own infrastructure—are an important part of that
foundation because they make advanced AI more accessible, adaptable, and widely available.

              How conflicts are resolved in open source hardware world?

              Today I noticed an eerie similarity with Nirav Patel's AI assisted top-mount expansion card design that he shared on Twitter. Its overlay was one-on-one with my top-mount expansion card that I made to release under my @riscfruit brand, named FramePico2 Expansion Card and licensed under CERN-OHL-S. Source files here: github.com/riscfruit/FramePico

              I posted a tweet about the issue tagging Nirav, and he replied within the day with the promise of giving me credit for coming up with top-mount card design and the choice of the component, and open sourcing their production ready design if they ever make one.

                  All of that stupid drama that is unfolding regarding Nvidia right now is the fault of closed source trade secret mentality that is inflicted by those very same people that enforce it.

                  If Jensen had open sourced GPU architecture way back when he opened the company, none of this nonsense AI hardware cold war regarding so called trade secrets would unfold. It would be common property of the people just like Linux, GNU, RISC-V and fully open source silicon chips like ElemRV. Also, he would remain CEO of the company as no one would bother his personal life as there would be no trade secret to "steal".

                  Mission of @oshwassociation, Linux and RISC-V have never been more important than ever. Don't want to be a part of this nonsense cold war drama? Just go open source all the way from software to PCB, down to silicon inside the chip. This is my mission at @riscfruit as well.

                  Certify your hardware as open source here so you don't become part of a so called "honey trap" ever (a stupid term used by people with closed source mentality as if sharing source design files with the people and other countries is a crime) as you already share the design with the world: certification.oshwa.org/

                                  Dá certa tristeza ver a escolha dos atuais assessores do presidente Lula, que em seus primeiros mandatos falava de boca cheia sobre software livre e tinha iniciativas nesse sentido, terem escolhido perfis oficiais no Bluesky e Threads.

                                  Lembro de ter ido algumas vezes a Brasília, no contexto do movimento de dados governamentais abertos e hacking cívico, e ver muito servidor público literalmente puxando projetos e iniciativas voltadas ao software livre e código aberto.

                                  Talvez fazendo um pouco de mea culpa, pois virei imigrante, mas todo mundo sumiu? E os funcionários públicos daquela época?

                                  Me parece que um conceito que passou batido nesse movimento foi o perigo da centralização. Poderíamos ter servidores oficiais com Mastodon ou algo análogo, como alguns na Alemanha e União Européia, mas a primeira iniciativa é logo ir pra uma plataforma com os mesmos vícios que nos levaram a essa situação.

                                  Editado: e descobri que também criou no Threads, mas ainda não ativou a opção de fazer parte do fediverso, o que mostra o despreparo dos assessores.

                                        FreeBSD Working To Establish An AI Policy After Polling Developers

                                        The FreeBSD Project published its Q3’2026 status report on Tuesday that outlines a number of development initiatives to ongoing work around an AI policy for this BSD operating system.

                                        FreeBSD polled their developers on the usage of AI and LLMs as a hot topic for the quarter. An overwhelming 88% want the FreeBSD Project to adopt an AI policy. 35% of those polled want AI-assisted code to be disclosed while 22% felt it should be treated just like any other code contribution and only 16% want AI generated code to be rejected outright. 65% of the respondents were in favor of AI-generated documentation with human review.

                                        FreeBSD has established an AI working group to work on drafting an AI policy. Final reports are expected in Q4.

                                        FreeBSD developers have also had to spend a lot of time preparing for the EU’s Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) such as around Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) support.

                                        FreeBSD has also seen work on a GUI for the Bhyve hypervisor written in Freepascal/Lazarus. This Bhyvemgr GUI is coming along well to help in managing of Bhyve VMs:

                                        Meanwhile on the web management/UI side, Sylve continues looking quite slick as a unified system management platform for FreeBSD from the web browser. Adding in the past quarter were new storage options, data center / cluster features, and more.

                                        FreeBSD also continues seeing work to enhance desktop installations of the operating system and more polishing of the desktop experience. Related have also been more suspend/resume and audio stack improvements.

                                        Some other FreeBSD happenings include improving zoned storage support, debugging enhancements, a variety of scheduler improvements, and enhancing the bootloader.

                                        More details on these FreeBSD improvements made during Q3 can be found via FreeBSD.org.

                                        Hello all. I need some help here. I've been confronted twice with well meaning groups using Telegram for communication. In the past even activist groups. Have they been duped into thinking Telegram is secure? Have I been dumped to hammer down on Signal? What are some arguments I should tell these groups about why I won't join their telegram group? (Please boost if you can.) Thank you 😃

                                                                                          1) A tool that lets regular folks easily publish a personal website by just typing words into a content field, and picking a layout. It should be free, and very easy to work for somebody who isn't technical.

                                                                                          Justification: Too many people have all of their stuff on social media simply because that's the easiest place to post content to by just writing and hitting post. A service that lets you actually just have a website would be better. It should let you export your markdown source files (the text) and compiled output (the html) whenever you want, in case you want to switch to a different service.

                                                                                          (You may recall this is what I'm currently working on with my Mycelium project on selfweb.club, although it's definitely not "ready" as a tool for mass adoption lol)

                                                                                          2) A federated, E2EE chatting service that works like Discord. It needs to be secure, without letting security get in the way of the user. People don't use Matrix specifically because of how much security gets in the user's way. Signal is common because it *doesn't* get in your way. Somebody ought to make an app and protocol that satisfies this need.

                                                                                          Justification: Everyone deserves the right to E2EE. I think we can all agree we ought to be moving things more towards federated online models to avoid walled gardens.

                                                                                          ---

Stuff that would actually be helpful to regular people and/or politically advantageous. Not just cool little dev projects (tho I think we should be making them too, just not discussing them in this particular thread).

                                                                                                    It's logged in as you. It can read your inbox, and it can just as easily hit Send.

It's enforced on the network requests, below the model: reads pass, and sends, posts, edits and deletes are refused before they leave the browser.

                                                                                                                  For starters, GPL are protective that force iteration of it (and projects where its iterations are used in) are shared under same license, thus making it remain open source. Its different from MIT and BSD, which are called "permissive" licenses, thus they are incompatible with each other.

                                                                                                                  Linux itself is licensed under GPLv2, so big companies can't simply clone Linux and make a closed source version of it. Whatever modification they do, they must share it under GPLv2.

                                                                                                                  Same applies to the open source hardware. I always use the CERN OHL-S. Letter "S" stands for "Strongly Reciprocal", so anyone copying or iterating my hardware design must "reciprocate" my license terms, thus they must share it openly under the same license.

Core-Maintainer klagen über eine Flut generierter Pull Requests, ganze OSS-Projekte werden mit AI neu geschrieben und unter proprietäre Lizenzen gestellt, und aus Angst vor Modellen wie Anthropics Mythos gewinnt «Security through Obscurity» wieder an Boden. 🎤 Darüber spricht Olivier Brian an der DINAconCH dieses Jahr!

                                                                                                                                💡 Nach einer kurzen Ausgangslage folgen strategische Inputs zum Umgang mit AI in OSS-Projekten und -Lösungen. Praxisbeispiele zeigen, wie bestehende Projekte mit AI-generierten Pull Requests umgehen und eigene Richtlinien dafür entwickelt haben. Zum Abschluss gibt es konkrete Tipps für OSPOs, Maintainer und OSS-Enthusiast:innen.

                                                                                                                                                        Back in 2003, Hans Reiser (yes, the ReiserFS guy) came to our university in Bologna to present Reiser4. He was a kind, friendly person, and we ended up taking him out for dinner. Of course, we paid, even though he insisted on paying for himself.

                                                                                                                                                        On our way back, as we were walking him to his hotel, we passed through Via Zamboni, a street in the city center that wasn't exactly the safest place at night. He noticed this and asked me whether the area was safe, given some of the rather shady-looking people around.

                                                                                                                                                        A few days earlier, a young man had been stabbed there (fortunately without serious injuries), so I suggested he be careful, telling him: "You must be careful, there are killers here!"

                                                                                                                                                        Well, let's just say that, in hindsight, I was remarkably accurate. 😆

                                                                                                                                                                      I take a look at it today, and, well... it’s a half-baked implementation that immediately causes other issues (my version was much more stable and didn’t have those negative side effects elsewhere).

                                                                                                                                                                      I rarely contribute to open-source projects—mostly due to a lack of time—and things like this are just even more demotivating...

I love it. I understand it. But...it does not suit my needs because we are beyond 1080p now!

                                                                                                                                                                              Recommend me something that does not need cloud, or have genAI bullshit built in please! I don't need the same editing levels of Premiere, but I do need basic color shifting, light adjustments, I do a lot of clipping and overlaying with audio so the same cut/mark/move layout with the timeline would be the biggest help.

                                                                                                                                                                              I don't use it enough to spend a bunch of money on it. I have tried OpenShot, it's...okay but it is clunky and the timeline cut/edit is annoying and it doesn't seem to do anything else.

After many requests, I just added Discord to my age verification bypass extension! It was the hardest one to bypass so far but I did it!

                                                                                                                                                                                      addons.mozilla.org/addon/age-v (Just install and use on Discord web)

                                                                                                                                                                                      ❗In regions like Australia and the UK, Discord does additionnal checks and you'll get a "Messages failed to load" error. In that case use a VPN along with the extension.

                                                                                                                                                                                      It may get patched, if discord propagates the additionnal check to all regions but hopefully not.

                                                                                                                                                                                      With Discord, Twitter, Reddit and bluesky bypassed in this extension, I'm really happy at how it turned out!
