FediSuite 1.7.0 is here!

This release brings some of the biggest additions yet for publishing and analytics:

• Archive search: Search every post FediSuite has ever seen for your accounts. Search a single account or all connected accounts at once, with matches even inside words.
• Cross-posting: Select multiple accounts in the composer and publish or schedule the same post across different platforms. FediSuite automatically respects character limits, media rules, visibility options and other restrictions of all selected accounts.
• Eight new reach insights: FediSuite now uses calculated net reach directly to identify your best times and weekdays, differences between media and text posts, potential reach decline and more.
• The reach formula developed by Ralf Stockmann for FediWings now also includes quotes from Mastodon 4.5+. FediWings is also explicitly acknowledged within FediSuite as its sister project.

Plus several bug fixes and smaller improvements.

FediSuite is open source, self-hostable and licensed under GPL-3.0.

Yesterday we were talking with Viktor on #Marginalia Discord. I was thinking the bottleneck in crawling is bandwidth. Viktor said something else:

The bottleneck is not BW, not most of the time. But the problem's that a) the crawler is polite. So I don't send so many requests to the same host concurrently. For instance, so many websites on wordpress.com, geocities, github.io and similar.

And b) Too many open connections will drive the network switch mad and it'll be problematic.

Since yesterday, I'm using #wget to download websites for offline usage and later index them using #yacy. By default, wget is a polite crawler. I am fetching about ~10 websites concurrently. And the average BW usage is just 1MB/s. Fetching some websites is not done since yesterday till now...

🤔 Question: what would you do if you want to release an open source project, but not want to have it feed the AI machine?

It is clear that I am not the only one struggling with this. Curious if we can come up with creative ways to reward humans and grant them access, while at the same time stopping the AI overlords.

Suggestions or ideas?

Can you use freeBSD with native ZFS?

"When the U.S. government imposed sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC) in early 2025, the consequences were far-reaching yet quickly enforced.

The restrictions cut off the ICC chief prosecutor's access to Microsoft services, including email, followed by a freezing of his personal and institutional bank accounts in affected jurisdictions.

While this was happening, the Dutch government was watching, coming to the bitter realization that access to essential services depended on decisions made in the U.S.

Hence, their response to this is DAWO, short for Digitaal Autonome Werkomgeving Overheid, or Digital Autonomous Work Environment for Government in English.

It is a framework that looks to tackle the government's digital stack, covering the OS, an office suite, collaboration apps, cloud services, IT management tools, and AI, with all of it being built around a NixOS foundation."

Wir brauchen einen guten Tipp.

Wir und ein paar andere NABU Verbände sind schon beim papierlosen Büro. Und natürlich will man alle Rechnungen einscannen und OCR scannen. Genau das machen wir, allerdings nutzen wir für den OCR Scan von hunderten PDFs die Kommandozeile und OCRmyPDF.

Das ist aber keine Lösung für Menschen, die nicht einmal wissen was eine Kommandozeile ist. Daher suchen wir ein Programm, was wir anderen NABU Verbänden empfehlen können und was folgendes kann:

- Einfache GUI Oberfläche
- Für Windows, macOS und Linux
- Batchverarbeitung von vorhandenen PDFs
- Abspeichern im PDF/A-3 Format
- Gern kostenlos aber kann auch eine Kleinigkeit kosten. Nur kein Abo oder Cloud-Dienst

Mit NAPS2 habe ich schon experimentiert, aber das scheint mehr für das scannen und nicht für vorhandene PDFs zu sein.

For almost a year, my Ansible connection plugin for FreeBSD jails had a jail escape.

A symlink inside a jail, a root-owned mv on the host, and every file transfer could land wherever the jail wanted. Rejecting ".." didn't help at all.

Now it's CVE-2026-55074. Here's the bug, the fix, and what disclosing it looks like when the project has one maintainer.

So I have been having this idea for a while, and finally got around to making a prototype (generating with Claude, more exactly)

The principle is simple, right now authentication for Matrix bridges is rather tedious... As in, copying a request from the debug console in the browser tedious, so not very accessible to the average Mom for example (sorry IT Moms around here)

So the idea is, why don't we publish a browser extension (here in Zen Browser) to automatically detect available bridges once logged into a Matrix user account, and give the possibility to be fully walked through the login process, automagically

No finding the request manually, no copying to weird curl formatted tokens, no confused "just press F12" moments, just click the "Log in" button

What are people's thoughts ?

Doing my part in discovering what libre software is free of LLM use (and what is tainted).

For Logseq that would probably be the "OG" (or 1.x) branch. The 2.0 "DB" branch has reportedly 80% of code "written" by "AI".

So I know which version I'll keep using.

I recommend you kindly ask similar questions to your local libre software developers.

We just expanded Become the Thousand Servers with a practical section for people trying to figure out where the hell to actually put a site once they’ve decided not to trust one giant platform with everything.

The course now includes a hosting provider comparison chart covering 1984 Hosting, FlokiNET, May First Movement Technology, Koumbit, and La Contre-Voie, with pricing in USD and breakdowns for:

- control
- privacy and data minimization
- backups and recovery
- DDoS/resilience
- movement accountability
- NoBlogs / WordPress compatibility

It also now includes a publishing software comparison for Colophon, WriteFreely, WordPress, Ghost, and Grav, including:

- what each one is actually good for
- migration realities
- whether it is open source
- its license
- self-hosting vs managed hosting
- current pricing

So instead of “you should self-host” followed by 400 pages of Linux scripture and abandonment, the guide actually helps you compare the options and make a decision based on your project’s needs.

The page explains that the guide helps recover a blog, keep an independent backup, and document how someone else could move it later. It shows three large destination buttons: “Someone else hosts it for me,” “I want to self-host it,” and “I want another kind of destination.” Below, the progress reads “Step 2 of 2 (choose a destination to see the rest)” with a collapsed “Routes through this recovery path” section and links for “What is this XML file?” and “Choose where your blog will live.”

Jos joskus ostan 3d-tulostimen, UltiMakeria en osta.

Syy: tulostimen käyttämiseen tarvitaan niiden oma slicer-ohjelmisto Cura. Siitä on olemassa Linux-versio ja sivuilla on ladattavana veloituksetta Appimage, mutta se on kuraa.

Kiusallisin vika estää koko Appimagen käynnistämisen Debian-pohjaisissa Linuxeissa jos libz3-4 -paketti on versioltaan 4.8.12-3.1+b3 tai uudempi (mitä se ajantasaiseksi päivitettynä on aina).

Vika on raportoitu lokakuussa 2024 eikä sitä ole vieläkään korjattu: https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/19837

Aktiivinen harrastaja on jopa kirjoittanut ohjeen siitä miten Cura käännetään uudestaan ongelman välttämiseksi: https://www.epcsirmaz.co.uk/tech_blog/2026-03-appimage-recompile-cura.html

Ultimaker vaan ei tee asialle mitään.

Linux After Dark artwork

Yesterday I witnessed some of the most aggressive mud-slinging at an #opensource project I have ever observed (which admittedly may not mean much as I tend to stay away from conflicts like this).

@kde came under fire for a supposedly weak stance on #AI in the project and for accepting a weird talk for #Akademy2026 on an "AI-powered desktop that loves you back".

Despite repeated clarifications that the talk was nothing but a thought experiment that in no way represents the project's future direction, the pitch forks stayed up and the KDE account was eventually accused of being "fascist", among other things.

I dislike AI as much as anyone else around here and I would like to see #kde stay free of it, but I am also aware that this is not my decision to make.

The project provides its software free of charge to its users, which is an incredible gift to receive. 30 years of sophisticated development work, for free! (cont.)

En mi RB5009 el log del kernel delataba un bucle de capa 2, una línea cada 2 s, mientras el log de RouterOS y su monitor de puertos mostraban un equipo sano. Solo lo vi porque ya leía ese kernel desde dentro del router.

Con mikroscope, que he hecho yo: un agente Go en un contenedor de RouterOS que lee /proc, /sys, /dev/kmsg y perf de 1 a 100 Hz, y una CLI que lo instala, graba y reenvía a 11 destinos.

Código abierto, MIT.

https://github.com/jmrplens/mikroscope

#MikroTik #RouterOS #Golang #OpenSource

Alt...

El logo de mikroscope, nueve barras ámbar de distinta altura cruzadas por una línea plana a su media, con las tres del centro por encima, sobre el nombre mikroscope y el lema: telemetría de kernel por debajo del segundo desde dentro de un router MikroTik. Un panel titulado lo que RouterOS promedia o pasa por alto enumera cuatro cifras. En torno a 1 s: la carga de CPU en la API, una media móvil, 0,1 a 0,6 s tarde en dos horas medidas. 2,5 %: una ráfaga de 100 ms en un núcleo, en una media de 1 s y 4 núcleos, que no dice cuándo. 0: líneas del bucle en el log de RouterOS, con el kernel anotando el bucle de capa 2 cada 2 s. Unas 35 000: interrupciones del temporizador por segundo, en ráfagas de 20 a 90 s en un núcleo cada vez, desde unas 2 500, con Home Assistant consultando la API; el profile de RouterOS apenas lo mostró. Debajo: mikroscope corre en el router, en un contenedor, y lee los contadores del propio kernel de 1 a 100 Hz. Medido en un RB5009, RouterOS 7.24.2 y 7.24.4; el 2,5 % es aritmética. Al pie, github.com/jmrplens/mikroscope y: código abierto, MIT, RouterOS 7.24 o posterior, arm64, arm y x86_64.

Alt...

Cómo funciona mikroscope, en cuatro pasos numerados. 1, el kernel del router: /proc, /sys, /dev/kmsg y perf. El contenedor ve la CPU, interrupciones y memoria del router. 2, el agente, en un contenedor de RouterOS: binario Go estático en imagen scratch, sin conexión saliente. Muestrea de 1 a 100 Hz, 10 por defecto; guarda los últimos 60 s. Sirve deltas de ticks en bruto por HTTP en un veth /30. 3, el colector, a 11 destinos: con la API de RouterOS, añade el tráfico por interfaz a 1 Hz. Los destinos: fichero, Prometheus, InfluxDB 3, Loki, OTLP, Graphite, Elasticsearch, script SQL, PostgreSQL, Telegraf y salida estándar. 4, Grafana: 5 dashboards, uno por almacén, de 30 a 177 paneles. Reglas de alerta para InfluxDB 3, Prometheus y PostgreSQL. Lo que cuesta el agente a 10 Hz: 2,69 % de un núcleo, 13,2 MiB de memoria residente, 0 huecos y 0 pérdidas; RB5009UG+S+, RouterOS 7.24.2, 2026-09-18, una ventana de 300 s. Al final, doctor solo lee; install lista cada orden y pregunta antes, sobre dos órdenes: mikroscope doctor --router admin@192.168.88.1 y mikroscope install --router admin@192.168.88.1.

On my RB5009 the kernel log reported a layer-2 loop, one line every 2 s, while RouterOS's log and port monitor showed a healthy device. I only saw it because I was already reading the kernel from inside the router.

With mikroscope, which I built: a Go agent in a RouterOS container that samples /proc, /sys, /dev/kmsg and perf at 1 to 100 Hz, and a CLI that installs it, records and forwards to 11 sinks.

Open source, MIT.

The mikroscope logo, nine amber bars of different heights crossed by a flat line at their average, with the three middle bars rising above it, over the name mikroscope and the tagline: sub-second kernel telemetry from inside a MikroTik router. A panel headed what RouterOS averages or overlooks lists four figures. About 1 s: CPU load over the API, a trailing mean, 0.1 to 0.6 s late in two measured hours. 2.5 %: a 100 ms burst on one core, in a 4-core, 1 s average, which cannot say when. 0: loop lines in RouterOS's log, while the kernel logged the layer-2 loop every 2 s. About 35 000: timer interrupts a second, in 20 to 90 s bursts on one core at a time, up from about 2 500, while Home Assistant polled the API; RouterOS's own profile barely showed it. Below: mikroscope runs on the router, in a container, and reads the kernel's own counters at 1 to 100 Hz. Measured on one RB5009, RouterOS 7.24.2 and 7.24.4; the 2.5 % is arithmetic. At the foot, github.com/jmrplens/mikroscope and: open source, MIT, RouterOS 7.24 or later, arm64, arm and x86_64.

Alt...

mikroscope, how it works, in four numbered steps. 1, the router's kernel: /proc, /sys, /dev/kmsg and perf. The container sees the router's CPU, interrupts and memory. 2, the agent, in a RouterOS container: static Go binary in a scratch image, no outbound connection. Samples at 1 to 100 Hz, 10 by default; keeps the last 60 s. Serves raw tick deltas over HTTP on a /30 veth. 3, the collector, into 11 sinks: with the RouterOS API, adds per-interface traffic at 1 Hz. The sinks: file, Prometheus, InfluxDB 3, Loki, OTLP, Graphite, Elasticsearch, SQL script, PostgreSQL, Telegraf and stdout. 4, Grafana: 5 dashboards, one per store, of 30 to 177 panels. Alert rules for InfluxDB 3, Prometheus and PostgreSQL. What the agent costs at 10 Hz: 2.69 % of one core, 13.2 MiB resident memory, 0 gaps and 0 drops; RB5009UG+S+, RouterOS 7.24.2, 2026-09-18, one 300 s window. Last, doctor only reads; install lists every command and asks first, above two commands: mikroscope doctor --router admin@192.168.88.1 and mikroscope install --router admin@192.168.88.1.

Flowise — визуальный конструктор для LLM‑приложений: перетаскиваете на холст модель, векторное хранилище, инструменты и память, соединяете их линиями и получаете чат‑бота, RAG‑поиск по документам или агента. У проекта 55 тысяч звёзд на GitHub, 25 тысяч форков и почти 7 миллионов скачиваний Docker‑образа. Его разворачивают у себя компании, которым нельзя отправлять данные в облачные конструкторы.

29 июля 2026 года команда объявила о закрытии: «разработчики всё чаще доверяют сложные задачи агентам для программирования, а жёсткие low‑code‑процессы упираются в потолок». 13 августа репозиторий заархивировали, 31 августа поддержка закончилась. В объявлении прямо сказано: код под Apache 2.0 ваш, форкайте.

F-Droid 2.0 is finally out. The biggest update in a decade, and the first one that actually does not look like it was designed in a shed.

The whole app is a Kotlin Compose rewrite now. Navigation is down to three tabs: Discover, Search, My Apps. Updates are automatic in the background by default, and the new session installer finally makes the install flow on par with the Play Store (thanks, EU DMA).

The trade-offs?
- No more Privileged Extension support
- Tor auto-detection is gone, you now need a Tor VPN for that
- The panic wipe feature and the fake calculator disguise are also dead
- Android 6 support has been dropped

This a massive step forward for FOSS Android. But do read the release notes before updating if you relied on those privacy tools.

% bsddialog --msgbox "Theme 1" 10 30 --and-dialog --msgbox "Theme 2" 10 30 --theme blackwhite --and-dialog --msgbox "Theme 3 :D" 10 30 --bikeshed --and-dialog --msgbox "Theme 4 :D :D :D" 10 30 --bikeshed

Another small one in Mastodon's own web client.

Someone filed the bug on September 18: post from the deck view, Mastodon's multi-column layout, and the compose box just sits there instead of going back. Reply, quote, edit, same story.

The check turned out to be one exact string, pathname === '/publish', with no idea that /deck/publish exists. I pulled it into its own isStandaloneComposePath function, stripped the /deck prefix before comparing, and added a test so the next refactor cannot quietly break it again.

Merged into main today by diondiondion. PR: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/40663

Fixed a bug where posting, replying, quoting or editing from Mastodon's deck (multi-column) layout left the compose box open instead of returning to the previous screen. The path check only recognized /publish, not /deck/publish. Extracted a normalizing helper and added a test. Merged by diondiondion, PR #40663.

In our latest Zeek 9 preview, Evan demos the experimental zeek-xdp package. XDP drops traffic at the kernel level before it reaches Zeek's analysis pipeline, reducing overhead without expensive hardware.

Still experimental, and Evan is actively looking for community feedback. Let us know what you think!

Today, @liberaforms released a new version including our work on its Dockerfile.

As explained on the project blog:

"The Dockerfile has been improved in many ways, but most notably, it now uses a multi-stage build. As a result, the final image now only includes the runtime dependencies, and not the development ones any more. This led to a significant size reduction of ~43%! It also helps reduce the attack surface as development tools that can be used to craft exploits, such as gcc, are now absent from the final image."

https://blog.liberaforms.org/2025/09/28/version-450/

This is a first step of a global enhancement regarding the containerisation of LiberaForms. Our next objective is to remove the use of the root account for running the service.

I was a GNU/Linux desktop user for 5 years and am now occasionally a Linux hater. If you’re using Omarchy, you’re supporting transphobia and against trans community’s contributions to Linux and open source. That’s what far-right ideology does.
