Honestly with the likes of Opencode / pi / hermes I don't really find the "Claude Code agent loop" part particularly interesting. The edge Anthropic has on others lies on its models performance. CLI tooling (and obv

The cool thing about open-weights model is that you are free to use alternative providers that won't phone home to the original model creators. I see 6 alternative providers listed on Openrouter for DeepSeek V4 Pro for example.

Another vote on niri being just great software. While itss idea (scrolling tiling windows manager) is novel, the software in itself is very polished with a very mature API that doesn't change at every version (looking at you hyprland).

Not sure about mid-life, he is still in his early twenties. He was a gifted programmer with very popular open source projects early on.

Thanks Dylan for all your work over the years. It has been very influential from Neofetch, Wal/Pywal, KISS Linux, to your own Bible, the Pure Bash one! Wishing you all the best for the future, may the Greek weather keep you happy!

I use LineageOS on all my devices (it's actually my main criteria when buying a phone) to mainly install apps from F-Droid without relying on the Google Play Store. It has the same familiar look and feel on all devices and by experienc

> Maru is built on the latest Android Oreo. Yeah this is abandonware, idk why it's being posted and upvoted now. Something similar to real mobile/desktop convergence is still technically possible today with Phosh on PostMarket

The hardware is basically the same as self-hosted NAS, the motherboard could even be of a lower quality. The software though is closed source and most consumer NAS only get support for 4-5 years which is outrageous.

I created a small website to display F-Droid apps with their repository information (from github, gitlab, etc), it's not perfect but it can give more insights on a project popularity. It's available here: https://dbeley

On top of Qobuz (which is great) there is also Ototoy (mostly for japanese indie music).

ChatGPT is not "someone", it's a black box that will ingest everything at his disposal and can't tell you where he gets the information from. The moral thing to do would be to use opt-in training data.

Not a success? It's now the default on most biggest Linux distros like Ubuntu and Fedora. The tiling WM ecosystem in particular is thriving on Wayland with sway and hyprland, and I personally haven't had any issues with screen rec

You can specify as many profiles as you want, you have a property called firefox.profiles that can be an array and you would declare as many settings you would want in it. They still need to be names though (either through a variable like a

Yeah AMD has the edge on efficiency it's odd it's kind of an "underrated" feature nowadays. Using less power (thus less W to dissipate that will end up heating your room) for the same computing power? Who wouldn't w

Just as difficult? AMD GPUs are plug-and-play on linux (if you have latest gen you should run a recent enough kernel but that's basically it), whereas Nvidia GPUs need their proprietary drivers which adds much more complexity for begin

NixOS is overriding the profile name by using your username so the name is not auto-generated anymore (NixOS hates that) so it knows the user profile will always be at ~/.mozilla/firefox/USERNAME. It automatically creates a ~

How do you install the userChrome.CSS automatically? As far as I know it needs to be placed in a folder containing a hash that's only generated at firefox first launch. At some point if you want to configure everything with your own sh

Every CEO of the top tech companies would be fired for the kind of controversy Musk has monthly. Musk gets away with it because he's the owner but most social media and tech companies aren't led by this awful people.

Great write-up! I feel those stories of open source developers are really lacking in the space given the importance of their work.
