Murena /e/ OS 4.0: Android-Fork soll Umstieg von Google-Diensten erleichtern

I've been enjoying practicing for field day using my fork of Morse Walker, and also using cwsim for a more realistic simulation of a busy contest CW experience.
It made me wonder whether anyone had made a cwsim fork to support field day.
When I did a Google search, it sent me to Gemini, which helpfully …

Ditch Chrome. Ditch it yesterday. It’s already 50% hostile surveillance machine, but that’s soon going to be 100%.
Vivaldi is a fine near-drop-in replacement if you want maximum compatibility. It’s what I use for G-Suite stuff whenever I have to use it.
Waterfox is a Firefox fork that strips out the AI nonsense features. I’ve been happy with it.
Firefox itself has problematic leadership these days, but is still better than Chrome.
Safari on Mac (my daily driver) is a lovely browser, lean and blazing fast compared to Chrome, and great privacy features — though it’s still Big Tech if that’s a problem for you.
In short, you have choices!

🥳 New Kitten¹ Release
• Adds `rawBody` to non-multipart POST requests.
This property, which is a Buffer, is necessary if you want to verify signatures (e.g., for webhooks).
I had to fork express-busboy as they already ruled out adding it. The fork (@small-web/kitten-busboy²) also allowed me to type the middleware extension point for Polka³ instead of Express (Kitten uses Polka) so that’s one @ts-ignore removed (hey, dev is a string of little wins) :)

Agent libOS: A Library-OS-Inspired Runtime for Long-Running, Capability-Controlled LLM Agents
Yingqi Zhang
https://arxiv.org/abs/2606.03895 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2606.03895 https://arxiv.org/html/2606.03895
arXiv:2606.03895v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents are evolving from request-response assistants into long-running software actors: they maintain state across model calls, fork subtasks, wait for external events, request human authority, generate tools, and perform side effects that must be resumed and audited. This paper presents Agent libOS, a library-OS-inspired runtime substrate for LLM agents. Agent libOS runs above a conventional host operating system; it does not implement hardware drivers, kernel-mode isolation, or a POSIX-compatible operating system. Instead, it treats an agent as an AgentProcess: a schedulable execution subject with process identity, parent-child lineage, lifecycle state, a tool table derived from an AgentImage, typed Object Memory, explicit capabilities, human queues, checkpoints, events, and audit records. Its central design rule is tools are libc-like wrappers; runtime primitives are the authority boundary. Filesystem access, object access, sleeps, human approval, JIT tool registration, and external side effects are checked at primitive boundaries under explicit capabilities and policy.
We describe the design, threat model, Python prototype, and safety-oriented evaluation. The current prototype implements async scheduling, namespace-local Object Memory, runtime-integrated human approval, one-shot permission grants, per-process working directories, shell and image-registration primitives, Deno/TypeScript JIT tools over a libOS syscall broker, filesystem/object bridge tools, an injectable Resource Provider Substrate, deterministic demos, real-model smoke scripts, and 123 regression tests at the time of writing. Rather than improving planner accuracy, Agent libOS demonstrates a runtime substrate in which long-running LLM agents can be scheduled, authorized, resumed, and audited without treating tool dispatch as the trust boundary.

It feels obvious that llm's have no place in free and open source software. Apparently it isn't, at least not to everyone. I recently became interested in exploring the scope of the problem after finding out that both Vim and Neovim not only don't have policies banning llm contribution, but already contain fairly significant amounts of llm generated code.

@… human slop worries me more than AI slop in cases such as this.
Why does the page not describe OpenZFS as tainted?
That's just careless.
Incidentally, I'll continue to use OpenZFS. I don't plan a fork.

Moon Seen Through Fork in Dead Poplar Snag Next to My House

Well, we've finally packaged #Valkey (another #Redis fork) in #Gentoo, along with its #Python bindings.
Not that we wanted to, but #FakeRedis now started requiring it for tests so heavily that it was too much effort to patch it out. Just to be clear, it just requires the Python bindings, because its test suite happily runs against either Redis or Valkey, and literally doesn't support testing against both simultaneously. But to add the bindings, we needed the database to test them against. And since I've added the package too, I've put a lot of effort (and swearing) to test FakeRedis against both servers.
Should you be using Valkey? Well, let's put it like this. You shouldn't be using Redis, because it's enterprise quality shit. Valkey is roughly what happens when you fork enterprise quality shit and have no clue what you're doing. Though you are able to mostly get renaming right (one valkey-py test failed over the server calling itself "Valkey" rather than "Redis").
Disclaimer: I've only looked at the Python bindings. Maybe the maintainers are more knowledgeable with the server itself.

Lots of patches are pending for @… - currently 8 open PRs, with even more to come.

The other one I truly love is GitUp (https://gitup.co). Its visualization handles certain specific tasks better than anything else — tasks where I’m more concerned about the shape of the commit graph than the contents of individual commits.
Because of the way it does live updates of repo state and offers a whole-commit-graph-level undo, I’ll sometimes keep it open in the background while doing some fiddly thing in another tool (Fork, CLI, whatever) just so I can see what the ^*@# is happening.
Alas, its lack of support for commit signing means I use it less and less.
