Wow, thank you for sending this

Where's the punk?

Ok, è ora di ammettere tutto. Ho installato Omarchy di @dhh con un sacco di scetticismo. Odio Arch, odio le rolling, odio pure i tiling wm. Tuttavia: 1. Questa roba funziona. Sono su un desktop vecchiotto che va veramente un missile 2. Avere codex/claude che ti sistema le conf quando vuoi fare le cose strane ELIMINA il 99% delle rotture su Linux. Se per mettere uno shortcut devo leggermi 20 pagine di manuale e/o interagire con gente scontrosa, passa la voglia 3. Sono un utente linux di vecchissimo corso. Credo di aver iniziato con Slackware 8.1. Quindi no, non era una skill issue 4. Quando lavoro uso quasi sempre macos. Il mio "workflow" non è ancora comodo/veloce su Omarchy come su macos, ma secondo me ci arriverò 5. Tanto software linux per desktop è una pila di letame. Peccato. La situazione invece di migliorare, peggiora. Probabilmente la grande diffusione delle LLM aiuterà pure in questo senso. 6. Dare agli utenti una configurazione standard fatta bene, da gente che non vive a goblintown è FONDAMENTALE 7. Bene così. Macos sta scendendo di qualità release dopo release. Avere un'alternativa è sempre un bene I miei complimenti a tutte le persone coinvolte.

AI corporations borrowing like there's no tomorrow and subsidizing tokens (although I'm not really sure if it's a true subsidy or the API is just overpriced). It can pay off for them, but they need to lock you in. And they're trying. Anthropic wants you to use their harness (Claude Code) - and it is really good. OpenAI now launching Dots. The idea is vendor lock in. I don't have a grand scheme for how this is going to end, but my personal strategy - never lock in. Use OpenCode, hermes-agent, be as model promiscuous as you can. Use the best frontier models, use the cheap flash models, milk most value for the buck, but change providers often and never accept lock in. They think they're building network effects, but you make them burn cash and provide insane value to you. Be the winner.

“Local models are useless” Comes from the same place as “Bitcoin is useless” Someone who has never had to deal with censorship, surveillance, deplatforming, theft, or states and corporations stopping them from what they want to do Local models and Bitcoin are freedom tools 💪

Idea: @GrapheneOS for GoogleBook. The Android 17 based full desktop platform. Pretty secure desktop os.

OK, this is beautiful: "I built a patcher (tools/patch_libapp.py) that edits libapp so inside the installed split APK at identical size — no reinstall, no re-signing, no re-login — and rewrites both zip CRCs so the archive still verifies. Deploying is a single adb push. I confirmed each patch is live by reading /proc/<pid>/mem."

Corrolary: if you think a proprietary app (Facebook, Whatsapp, ...) is spying on you, especially if it's supposedly recording your conversations to use for targeted advertisement, it's never been easier to check.

Running opencode 2. So far, good.

Everything is now "source-available". No proprietary algorithms exist. "Grab the apk from my phone in USB debug mode connected to this computer using adb. Decompile, analyze how XXX works, give me auditt. Prepare an independent implementation." DeepSeek V4.1 Flash does this extremely cheap. Then you can verify with more expensive model if something is not 100% right. It does not have to be bytecode, I see a bunch of assembler in the outputs, it's just reading the functions from native libraries.

Socialism vs. Capitalism in one short video. Doesn’t even need a comment...

Le communisme expliqué aux enfants :

Nostr VPN is a decentralized Tailscale alternative that needs no email addresses, user accounts or control servers. Now it also lets you buy and sell VPN bandwidth for bitcoin. nostrvpn.org

Okay, this has gone too far. We have to pace the frontier until we can figure out what the hell is going on here!

heavy codex user here. $200 plan used to be incredible value. then, openai got so greedy that it now barely lasts 2 days anymore. got a $200 claude plan out of frustration. turns out opus 5.5 is amazing and feels like 5x more usage than what i get with astra.

nsite-clay 0.3 is out: seventeen releases in four days. nsite-clay is a web page that edits itself. It's one HTML file hosted on Nostr. You open it, sign in with your key, type into it, and it republishes itself. There's no server, no account and no hosting bill. What 0.3.x adds: AI that writes and edits pages. Describe a page and get a full design with editable text and empty frames for your photos. On a live page, press Edit with AI and ask for the whole page redone or just the part you clicked. You see a preview first, and Undo takes it back. Three ways to use this: • one 2000 sat invoice: half funds the project, half becomes your credit, and the key follows you to every device through your own relays • a different Routstr node of your choice • your own API key AI is optional. The editor, the twelve templates, the block composer and publishing are still free, and work exactly as before. Also new: • Undo and Redo on the editing bar • click any picture to replace it, cropped to the shape of its frame • the content form has dates, dropdowns, numbers and rich text • saving keeps your file the way you wrote it • pages load faster for readers • pages reload into a new version by themselves • the publisher speaks Spanish, Slovak and Czech • the CLI takes .nsiteignore, --exclude and --dry-run, and refuses to publish files that look like private keys Build one: nsite-clay.cypherpunk.today/

All AirDrop functionality is now working in @OmarchyMac, at least on MBP M1. It should work on all M1s, and probably works on M2s. Please test and let me know what model you have! 🙏 #Omarchy Plugin @ github.com/brentkearney/omdr… Cc: @dhh @OmarchyLinux
