  6. In response to some interest in making 3D models for new content in the game, there is now a new page on the wiki with notes about how to make models for the game:

    principia-web.se/wiki/Modellin

    While the game's asset pipeline is rather primitive and materials are defined in code rather than in data files, I hope it will serve as useful for whoever may end up going down the path in the future.

  7. I wonder... Maybe in these wacky times FOSS might be more risky than the closed source (security though obscurity) for-profit garbage?

    I keep thinking about the Mythos AI model for finding security issues and how only big shots (and backdoor folks) are getting access. Look at Firefox. It's open source. They still found GOBS of stuff.

    Seems to me the little guys can't (or won't) use it. But the bad guys will. How many zero-days we're sitting on?

  9. Ah I got Locate Conference spam! They can fuck right off.

    IDK might be fun to remember an old friend by wandering the halls with a large thermal coffee mug of red wine and talking about how #FOSS solutions for this existed a decade ago.

    Dang I could have fun and do world changing good in the process if I weren't paycheck to paycheck precarious...

  10. @toffo @Gargron Yeah, taking over Commodore’s 8-bit and 16-bit systems was often necessary to make the most of the limited hardware capacity.

    We’re currently converting our 1990s Amiga 68000 Assembly games to portable C code using a transpiler we developed. It works pretty smoothly. We released our games and the transpiler as open source. You can find everything here:

  12. Der Druck auf Bambu Lab steigt.
    (auch gleich ein Wortspiel mit dabei 😅)

    Nun steigt die Software Freedom Conservancy (“SFC”) mit ein in die Thematik und geht auf Konfrontation mit Bambu Lab. 👍

    Dazu kommt der Streisand-Effekt.

  14. It's been a couple of weeks since FOSS Backstage 2026, and we're still overwhelmed by all the conversations. Let's look back at #FOSSBack26 by revisiting individual sessions.

    This year's keynote by Æva Black asked a question the industry the industry has been avoiding, can open source actually be secure by design? Twenty years of relying on FOSS while under-investing in its maintenance has a cost.

  19. @jselea Thanks goes out to Jonathan for this (still quite relevant) tidbit. For those of us who spent a lot of time with Sun #Solaris up through Solaris 10 there's a lot to appreciate here.

    Solaris has been parted out, but here is an Enterprise production scale incarnation that's worth a looksee and testdrive. It's really a shame that the Evil EllisonCo destroyed so much - just discarded it like trash, following aquisitions, and what they didn't toss out in the trash they dissappointed the developers so much that it spawned forks that exist to fill the vacuum to this day:

    - MySQL ==> MariaDB
    - OOo ==> LibreOffice (The Document Foundation)
    - Sun Enterprise Servers - rebranded as Oracle boxes
    - Sun Solaris 10 ==> OpenIndiana and others (OmniOS, for one)
    - Sun VirtualBox - Oracle VirtualBox

    So without dwelling on the past or further ado, let's follow Jonathan's tour, shall we?

  23. Shortly after putting out the new Tux! release a few hours ago, a bug was discovered. The combination of the new sliding shells with the freeze spell had not been considered, but an idea was instantly born and executed:
    With the latest commit, frozen shells will freeze players upon impact, on top of dealing damage.

  24. @diffrentcolours On Android I use Aegis Authenticator ( #FOSS ). On Linux I just discovered #Ente Authenticator, which is really nice.

  25. I'm happy to announce the launch of my new personal flohmarkt instance for things I'd like to sell or give away! What's particularly nifty about flohmarkt (compared to other classifieds sites) is that you can respond to a listing by sending a direct message from your own Fediverse account, or follow a flohmarkt profile to see new listings in your timeline. It is, of course, completely free and open source software (#FOSS) too!

    Over the next few weeks I expect to list mainly electronics and also some books. Everything will be available to collect yourself in Ilfracombe if you're nearby, or I can send items to you by post if not. Boosts of my listings are welcomed! Additionally, if I follow you on the Fediverse, you'll get a big discount off any item's listed price :neofox_cool:

    I'm not 100% sure how everything works yet, so please don't hesitate to contact me on this account or by email if you think your message might have gone missing.

    @neil introduced me to #flohmarkt and wrote a blog post about his experiences setting it up, so give that a read if you're interested in running your own - and feel free to send questions my way!

  26. A new release of Tux! has just been deployed to itch, with a ton of new features. Check out the devlog for an overview: luckeyproductions.itch.io/tux/

    Also consider rating the game or maybe even donating to support its continued development. luckey.games/donate/

  27. Signal added new warnings and confirmation prompts to slow phishing and social engineering attacks targeting linked devices and account access. 🛡️
    The encrypted messaging app now flags unverified contacts and reminds users it never asks for PINs, QR scans, or recovery codes. 🔐
