Ich wollte ja eigentlich ein Panorama mit Hugin rechnen, aber irgendwie läuft Hugin auf macOS 15.6.1 und einem Apple-M4-Chip nicht mehr richtig.

Kennt da jemand eine Lösung oder ähnlich guten Ersatz?

With a little Debian VM magic (vmctl, pf, ssh), you can run Signal Desktop mostly seamlessly; even with a menu icon.

High Memory Usage in Proxmox

I have only one vm and I just ran "htop" in it. It's using less than 3 GB RAM. But proxmox shows 11 GB. Why?

9to5Linux Weekly Roundup - September 14th, 2025

From the Orca mailing list:

Hey all.

I just landed a refactor in the main branch that impacts the following:

* Key echo (what is spoken when you press keys)
* Character echo (what is spoken when a character is inserted)
* Word + sentence echo (what is spoken as you type)

Hopefully I've broken nothing.

I've also made all the settings associated with these accessible via the
D-Bus Remote Controller. This should make it possible for games to turn
off key echo when keys are used for navigation. Note that this is like
all the other on-the-fly settings, so if you Alt+Tab into another app,
the change won't persist. But as I've mentioned before, and subsequently
documented [1], that is not a D-Bus-specific issue.

Regardless, I'd really appreciate some testing. I didn't realize the
49.0 release is due already....

Thanks!

@organicmaps Thanks for developing Organic Maps!

I do care a lot about preventing vendor lock-in and a Free and Open Source software development environment (Git forge). In general, I'm willing to accept some inconvenience for having freedom.

I would applaud it if Organic Maps moved to @Codeberg

In this way the Free and Open Source Software development ecosystem would be strengthened.

Dúvida para militantes ou simpatizantes do movimento de código aberto

Existe algum termo para o militante ou simpatizante do movimento de código aberto/cultura livre?

Estou traduzindo um texto do cartunista-colunista-escritor francófono Grise Bouille em que ele cita a palavra “libriste“ para falar de si mesmo como simpatizante do “movimento de cultura livre”.

Estou pensando em utilizar na versão em português a palavra “liberalista”, em contraposição ao “liberal”, designando “aquele que quer deixar a cultura livre”.

Vocês têm algum termo melhor?

Bryan Lunduke is the most boring #FOSS content creator. Beating the very same dead horse over and over again, how does he keep selling.

He was a cutie in his days, though, this is my strictly straight take.

Corporate social media broke the internet 😭

@taylorlorenz.bsky.social and @chaykak.bsky.social perfectly capture how algorithmic feeds and corporate surveillance have stifled the joy of casual posting. When every post is engineered for engagement, interactions feel performative, and platforms are designed to keep you endlessly scrolling, the internet loses its personal touch. Corporate social media has commodified connection, turned spontaneity into strategy, and reduced authenticity to performance.

But there's a way out: FOSS and the Fediverse. By embracing open-source software and decentralized platforms, you're not just avoiding surveillance—you're reclaiming control. You dictate what happens to your data, curate your own feed, and shape your online experience.

Envision an internet where you can share a silly thought, a random photo, or a half-baked idea without worrying about it being algorithmically buried or monetized. That's the promise of the Fediverse. It's not a utopia, but it's a significant step forward.

In this edition, there are articles showing you how to learn programming the smart way and take your first steps with Trisquel GNU/Linux. There's also a guide to 15 things you can do right now to move towards software freedom, answers to common questions about free software and letters from people in free software welcoming you to the community!

I submitted some talks to @linuxdays in #prague and @openalt_konference in #brno

One of them is about #Thunderbird from community perspective.

I freaking hate #Arch #Linux.

I just updated #CachyOS (with Arch updates), and now no apps load. #Gnome loads, but Terminal, Gedit etc don't load.

That has been my experience with Arch & Arch-based distros: every few weeks, you gotta deal with unforeseen problems.

That's why I prefer Linux #Mint. It just works. I don't spend time dealing with things I should NOT be dealing with. If I want a rolling release, there's Debian-Testing which is very stable.

What are some of your favorite opensource/FOSS terminal tools on Linux?

Some of mine are: Alacritty // Zoxide // ZelliJ // Eza // BTop // Yazi // Links2 // Musikcube

Basically everything you need if your DE gets busted.

If you have more rusty or modern versions to suggest let me know! I'd love a rust version of Links2 or similar that's not trying to re-invent the wheel!

The European Commission has issued a survey on the Governance and Sustainability of Critical Open Source Software.

The survey hopes to identify "pathways for collective efforts" and make "actionable recommendations for public administrations".

It's a relatively short survey, takes max 15 minutes & provides lots of opportunities to rate FOSS as 'very important' 😛

So I've got #LineageOS flashed on my internet phone. I'm trying to degoogle myself and figured this would be a good testbed. I'll post updates on this thread.

I can already tell the OS is much snappier without all the google play services running in the background.

#android #linux #foss

Looks like it's time to properly de-Google my phone (with upcoming changes to sideloading).

I spent some time with a (non-Pro) PinePhone as a daily driver. Really the only thing I couldn't live with was the camera; I have children I want to be able to take photos and especially videos of.

Seriously considering something like an MNT Pocket Reform w/ a SIM. Do away with a "phone" altogether and go with an open hardware device that can do VOIP. I'd miss Maps, but could make do with OSM.

The kids are still on Android (Lineage) but I can probably manage that, until they're of age, with a cheapo WiFi-only burner.

Anyone have experiences / recommendations (for or against) they'd care to share?

My tolerance for shenanigans is high (witness using a PinePhone as a daily driver for months).
