                Zeno's arrow doesn't move — flawless logic, absurd conclusion. A closed system can be internally perfect and entirely false. Now look at the apps in your pocket.

                The walled garden. The opaque interface. The LLM that narrates without ever consulting the world. Coherence without correspondence. Stories without ground.

                Truth is not a property. It's a relation — between the mind and what is not the mind. Closing the hood isn't bad UX. It's a refusal of the other. And the refusal of the other is the refusal of ethics.

                                                            Better if it's self-hostable, but otherwise, decentralized anyways.

The moderate opinion is however that LLMs are constantly improving and will eventually take over more and more tasks from humans and increase productivity. But are LLMs actually getting smarter, or just better at fooling us?

                                                                                            There was a time when the free & open source software movement stood in opposition to big tech.

                                                                                            It's become a cliché now, but when Microsoft found a new way to enshittify Windows, the natural response was "install Linux", because open source stood in opposition to bug tech.

                                                                                            Yet with the emergence of LLMs, there's a significant number of open source projects that gladly accept Claude-generated code. Some maintainers are open advocates.

                                                                                            So is it time for a fork, when an explicitly open and AI-free software movement separates from FOSS projects that openly embrace AI?

                                                                                                                                And I increasingly want to escape the Canonical Slop™.

                                                                                                                                Which leaves me with the obvious question:

                                                                                                                                                                    1 of 3 GitHub Continuous Integration checks passed (the other two are queued, hopefully they'll run smoothly; though since one was OK already, that is a good sign at least!).

                                                                                                                                                                    From the release notes: https://chrony-project.org/news.html it seems as if a lot of the new features? Are actually supporting OpenBSD!

                                                                                                                                                                    So, that isn't really a big deal for MacPorts' users, though maybe OpenBSD users will think that chrony is worth checking out? Admittedly, the OpenBSD project already has OpenNTPD, though chrony: supports PTP too.

                                                                                                                                                                    Observational curiosity: 4.9 was released, apparently exactly a year after 4.8 was released (August 27th). I am guessing maybe that was intentional?

                                                                                                                                                                                      This release focuses on speed and offline resilience. Mirror status is now cached locally with HTTP ETag support, so MirrorMan skips re-downloading the ~200KB status payload when nothing has changed, and the GUI now loads the country list instantly with 0ms network delay. If your connection drops or times out, it falls back seamlessly to cached data instead of stalling or crashing.

                                                                                                                                                                                      Speed tests now run on a concurrent work-stealing queue instead of chunked batches, so slow or unreachable mirrors no longer stall the rest of the pool. A shared HTTP client across worker threads also cuts down on repeated TLS handshakes.

                                                                                                                                                                                      On the CLI side, mirrorman-cli sync and mirrorman-cli backup now go through the D-Bus helper with Polkit, so non-root users can sync and back up mirrorlists without permission errors. Backups rotate automatically, keeping the 10 most recent.

                                                                                                                                                                                      Also new: multi-country selection for filtering mirrors, and a man page for the CLI.

Does anyone know how DistroWatch tracks updates, or how to properly reach out to Linux news sites? It's FOSS reviewed us once, but we’ve made massive changes since: new custom tools, a rewritten installer UI, and more!

                                                                                                                                                                                                        Tomorrow marks our 5th anniversary! 🎉 But despite publishing our updates, we're facing total radio silence. I don't want to jump to conclusions, but after 5 years, it honestly feels like a media boycott simply because of our project's origin (Iran). I didn't choose my nationality, and despite heavy restrictions, our team has built something we're proud of.

                                                                                                                                                                                                        We even have Server and Mobile editions in active development, yet the mobile efforts seem ignored even here among FOSS enthusiasts.

                                                                                                                                                                                                        How can we break this silence? Any advice is appreciated! 🐧❤️

                                                                                                                                                                                                            Dabei werfen wir einen Blick auf die Unternehmen, Projekte und Menschen, die die unglaubliche Reise von Linux geprägt haben: Linus Torvalds, IBM, Red Hat, Google, Microsoft, Intel, Hewlett-Packard, Docker, Git, Android, Ubuntu, Debian, die Linux Foundation, die NASA, Steam und viele mehr.

                                                                                                                                                                                                            Es ist eine Geschichte über Open Source, Zusammenarbeit, Gemeinschaft und darüber, was passiert, wenn man Technologie entwickelt, die letztlich kein einzelnes Unternehmen kontrollieren kann.

                                                                                                                                                                                                            Vom Hobbyprojekt eines Studenten bis hin zu Software, die Milliarden von Geräten und einen Teil der weltweit wichtigsten Infrastruktur steuert – dies ist die Geschichte davon, wie Linux die Welt erobert hat.

Way more often. Lemmy is gaining momentum if it's links seep in more and more in my FediVerse feeds.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                I had deliberately stayed away from the drama which the reddit Overlords inflicted upon their users, with their LLM training fails. I have Reddit accounts which are basically Smurfs and were hardly used.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                I was hoping that, since Lemmy is also federated, I could add an account through my Mastodon clients. It's quite clear that I didn't (bother) to read which Federated protocols Lemmy networks use, otherwise I would have known beforehand that it would fail.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                Interestingly enough, I've had a Jerboa client installed on one of my androids without using it. Of course it was deleted after a while

                                                                                                                                                                                                                Jerboa for lemmy is now run with a purpose, after deliberatly making a Lemmy account in the LemmyVerse. What I looked for was a server which does not reside in the USA (reasons should be obvious considering Little Donny the Orange President) so big tech USA has no grip on that account
