It looks like the f-droid.org certificate has expired? Obtainium throwing a lot of errors lately. Any idea what's going on?

What I gathered is that they were probably going to open-source it when it's finished but accidentally made it public now.

Germans, find out all the people behind this company. Owners, workers, lawyers. They hate you. Give them a hearty welcome back.

Hi all, I was pretty happy with Amaze, but their SSH connection constantly breaks (all the top issues are about it), and Fossify doesn't have any network connections.

Does anyone know of a good modern file manager with SSH that works?

I'm using Boostcamp at the moment: free version, not open source, and its bothering the hell out of me. Limited. Bloated. Paywalls. I love the detailed programs and routines, and have not found a similar replacement. Any recommendations that include:

Routine creating

Custom exercises

Access to existing database of workouts (most important).

Disclaimer: This project is not made by me, although I am an occasional contributor — it is made by Nokorpo, an indie Spanish studio. However, it is quite nice, albeit it still has a long way to go.

I'm moving away from using products by big tech and I recently started using EnteAuth for 2FA. Today I got an email from them saying that they received money as part of GitHub's secure open source fund. Maybe I'm just being paranoid but I do not like this at all. Microsoft is not altruistic I don't care what anyone says. There has to be an ulterior motive for this. With even the recent news that github won't be so independent anymore and they're getting folded into the Microsoft umbrella this has me worried. But let's be real github was never independent just look at copilot being forced down everyone's throat. That's why I personally stopped using it.

According to the fund

Throughout this program, each project receives $10,000 USD via GitHub Sponsors (which breaks down to $6,000 USD during the sprint and $2,000 USD at 6- and 12-month security check-ins). Projects are also invited to a new security focused community, and office hours with the GitHub Security Lab, that they can take advantage of during the full 12 months. They also receive security resources to immediately implement in their project and Azure credits for cloud infrastructure.

Those sponsors include

Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, American Express, Chainguard, Datadog, Herodevs, Kraken, Mayfield, Microsoft, Shopify, Stripe, Superbloom, Vercel, Zerodha, 1Password

Projects that are part of this even include nodejs, nvm, log4j, JUnit, and Matplotlib. Taking cybersecurity seriously is great but this just seems like a way to sucker them into their ecosystem to get them dependent on their products. Like I said maybe I'm being paranoid but I wouldn't be surprise when Microsoft suddenly buys these projects and we lose what made them so great.

Hi everyone, excited to present Postiz v2.

Postiz is a social media scheduling tool supporting 23 social media channels.

It allows you to schedule posts in advance and track them in your calendar.

https://github.com/gitroomhq/postiz-app/

(Any star will be super appreciated ❤️)

What's new:

  • Completely new design - better UX / UX and finally, looks professional 😂 https://share.cleanshot.com/lvv549fY
  • Media - Request by a few members, I added media to the menu. You can manage your media from there.
  • Switched to TipTap editor - it feels much better, and outputs HTML, which allows us to easily convert the code into the respective platform, for example, Telegram supports HTML, and Discord supports Markdown.
  • New platforms - You can now schedule posts to WordPress, DEV, Medium, and Hashnode!
  • Mentions - You can use "@" to mention accounts in the editor, currently supporting: LinkedIn, X, BlueSky, and Discord.
  • Saving state: When you move between views (Month / Week / Day), it will save it, and will open it again next time.
  • N8N nodes - I have created an n8n node for easier automation - here. We have seen tons of Postiz cool automation lately, so try to look them up online :)
  • Postiz SDK - Similar to N8N, just with an SDK for Node.js - here
  • AI Features - Added many AI features, such as generating slides/videos with VEO3, also available in the API.
  • Errors in notifications - Usually, if the post failed, you would get just "error occurred"; I have now mapped many of the errors, and you will see them both in email and in the in-app notification.

In general, the system becomes a lot more stable. I added small features, such as a concurrency limit between requests on platforms, Sentry for error detection, a 'Today' button to access the current date quickly, and a cron job to re-add items to Redis in case they were removed for any reason.

As always, everything is 100% open-source :)

I just discovered a screen recording software in Flathub using the GPU efficiently that works great out of the box on on Wayland, even the hotkeys.

Alternative Video Recorder I use tooOBS, Spectacle, Steam, RetroArch

I also have OBS setup, but that is more suited for a workflow that does not change much in my opinion. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong here with that. But at least the hotkeys do not work for me on OBS. The GPU Screen Recorder is a bit easier to setup and understand too. For Steam games I do not need this and use the Steam builtin functionality already. RetroArch for emulation of games is problematic, so this tool comes in handy. And Spectacle from the KDE software has some video recording functionality too, but I didn't got into much yet.

Actually, GPU Screen Recorder is a CLI tool that can easily be automated with scripts. I did not try that yet. The Flatpak version comes with a GUI (GTK) and has a new alternative GUI that resembles the Nvidia Shadowplay look (and looks the same).

I use the Desktop Portal, which will ask me to record a window or application instead the entire screen (but can do that too). It does not require root access for that.

Over the past year as I've gotten into linux and self-hosting as a hobby, I've found an interest in using terminals and the "minimalist" feeling it gives me. Recently I found out there are terminal based web browsers and I'm really interested in the stripped down nature of web browsing it offers.

I already tried out W3M but I know there are a few others such as Lynx and Browsh.

I'm interested in hearing about other people's experiences with terminal web browsers, the pro's and con's and also the reasons for using them.

Frames are fetched from Smega Drive.

From About the Smega Drive:

1,625,013 frames and 33,003 subtitles have been smashed together into what might be the most important website on the entire Internet. We are proud to present to you The Smega-Drive, a complete archive of Red Dwarf screenshots, and meme maker to boot.

So, it works like this. We've based the indexing and the search system on the subtitles from the DVDs / Blu-Rays, so you can look for a quote (or a small part of a quote) and with any luck you will find the subtitle screen you need, along with previews of frames that that subtitle covers. Alternatively, you can use the episode browser.

Context: I'm currently using an older Samsung phone to convert h264 dashcam videos to HEVC/h265 to save space. These are many, 10 minute long videos, and the process is incredibly labour intensive, since I have to do each one manually.

The conversion itself is really fast (maybe 2-3 minutes), and the results are excellent (usually half the size with the same quality).

Question: Is there software for Linux that can convert at similar speeds, preferably batched? Handbreak has been incredibly slow.

Caveat: I'm using a Framework 13 (11th gen Intel) laptop with an Intel integrated graphics card, so I can't really leverage that in the same way a dedicated GPU can be. But still, I can only imagine that my laptop should be able to outperform my super old phone! LOL

I'm not really looking to compress the videos (I've experimented, and the quality loss from an already "poor" source just doesn't cut it). HEVC/h265 conversion would be ideal.

Is there anything else I can try?

I've been having a hard time looking for a pdf viewer that has a specific feature, and have been meaning to ask for a good enough one to use instead.

The feature i was looking for is viewing a directory of files at once without having to open multiple files at once and navigate from tabs, sort of like a file explorer and a pdf viewer in one, which might be a lot to ask.

What I'm asking for right now is what software would you use if you needed to read plenty of pdf files from the same source?

If you don't have anything specific that solves this, I'd still like to know if there is a "good enough" pdf viewer, as the browser doesn't feel like a good enough solution for my problem.

  • Note that i do not need to edit the files, just view them.

While looking for open source dive log applications on F-Droid (in preparation for my Advanced Open Water Certification) and I found an app called Subsurface and apparently it is as developed by none other than Linus Torvalds himself.

I also found this neat YouTube video of Dirk Hohndel talking about scuba diving with Linus.
