I like spreadsheets. They are a great help for figuring out stuff. For Google's services I use exactly the spreadsheet, Keep and YouTube, and that's it.

I've been wanting a TUI spreadsheet for a while but I only recently found sc-im. This is superb :-)

I need to figure out at some point how can I replicate something like GOOGLEFINANCE with Lua scripting capabilitie. I use it all the time in Google's spreadsheet.

You heard it here first: Mastodon 5.0 (eta Oct-Dec 2026) will introduce major improvements to the core user experience. We're making Mastodon the most human-centred software on the .

That’s where you come in.

Discovery Week 🗓️ 11-15 May 2026

Join our Head of Design @imanijoy for a jam-packed 5 day sprint inviting stakeholders from within and beyond Mastodon to weigh in on the future of the product.

I'm developing my own ostree and BuildRoot based operatingy system:

- https://codeberg.org/puu
- There will be puu-desktop and puu-llm builds.
- puu-desktop uses ext4.
- puu-llm uses ext4 + xfs for the models.
- puu-llm hosts k3s, llm-d and generally very latest of stack for running local LLM modesl.
- GNOME build is tough and I'm working on it but I have plan how to make in happen on BuildRoot.
- Given being BR2_EXTERNAL, builds and configures with beloved kbuild :-)

Despite having puu-llm build this project disregards AI contributions.

That said. I don't see it as a crime that you generate some initial code with LLM.

I do that sometimes too especially when I need to get an idea of e.g. alien projec. However, usually I do also spend week or few applying hard manual labor to make the actual code change I want to do despite having some random slop that functionality fits the bill.

This is what I do accept but it is generally best just to say plain no in README.md as most people will likely not be able to do such weighting.

I tried Suno Studio so that I can spare you from doing it. Here's a longer review.

Disclaimer. I don't have any problems Suno Studio existing but what can I say is that it piece of shit DAW by any reasonable standards 🤷

Suno Studio probably works if you want to make a shitty wedding song with your and your spouses name mentioned in the song lyrics but making a song with it is a complete suicide mission :D IF you know how to compose, arrange and no what you're after i.e, do a stuff that musicians generally do.

Obviously the actual DAW functions are complete garbage. When comparing to the staples of web DAWs such as Bandlab, Suno Studio is just plain ridiculous.

The AI functionality serves no purpose. I don't have any use of bad quality generated audio clips, as Splice already serves me if I want to pick up off-the-shelf samples.

E.g., a useful AI functionality would be to match the MIDI edits to "similar script" but this is actually out of scope for Suno Studio because it has no MIDI clips in the first place except as exports. And I never convert audio to MIDI because I can do that already with my ear if I hear something nice :-)

This is a wider issue of AI products because they are just generally awful and nobody wants to pay for them.

Suno Studio is a complete joke but here's some other web options that can do the job:

1. https://www.audiotool.com/
2. https://www.bandlab.com/

I'm now ready to send my rootns patch set that I've had branch for some time at git.kernel.org.

I got the story now in my head why we need it (in universal sense). It has been hard to finalize the code when there is no mission to accomplish.

Now there is a mission to accomplish, which makes it easy to cover letter the code.

It's exactly Claude Mythos and similar LLM powered agentic security scanners. the window that pivot_root leaves grows too big of a risk.

We cannot rely on to stuff like this anymore.

I find rpm-ostree really cool technology. Have been playing with it my X390 Thinkpad, which is like my "testing ground for new stuff".

Has this been applied to other distributions so far similarly as in Silverblue?

I'm particularly interested could I redo this with arch baseline?

FINALLY, figured this one out:

# Apply Linux kernel patch.
macro index L "<pipe-message>b4 shazam -l -s ''<enter>" "b4 shazam"

Pay attention to ''. I don’t why it fixes everything but after hours of poking on the problem I had that by accident there and suddenly it all came together 🤷

Despite it will take still a bit of time to publish CCD, but I'll release libttk.so much sooner.

It's my retained mode single-threaded terminal UI ...

... i.e, it has jobs but they yield and multi-tasking is co-operative :-) Scenegraphs are thread-safe (or may thread-local?) in the sense that they don't shared local state.

Running fm in single-thread neither does prevent parallel processing thanks to POSIX and non-blocking I/O, and in Linux you have uring.

This is how I look at performance, when I visit the topic. I.e. not thread-bombing but only taking what you need and "stay out of the way bothering" :-)

Diseases that are contagious before people are symptomatic are especially hazardous and epidemic-prone. The epidemic is time-delayed from the initial outbreak. LLM usage begets more LLM usage, and LLM-written technical debt takes time to become symptomatic. Exponentials are harder to see from the middle.

Mind the overlapping scrollbar but looks every day more polished.

As can be figured out from screenshot, despite Ranger-alike appearance, this does not share vim-like navigation but instead has prompt always at bottom and mc-style shortcuts.

I'm a heavy vim-user myself but having less speedrun-logic in the file manager gives my brain a healthy context switch. Managing files should not be done in fast turns anyhow :-)

zpico is great: https://github.com/thornjad/zpico

And migration from zap was super easy:

# Must be set before loading `zsh-contrib/zsh-vivid`.
export=VIVID_THEME=catpuccin-mocha

export ZP_PLUGIN_HOME="${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}/zpico/plugins"
if [ -f "$HOME/.local/lib/zpico/zpico.zsh" ]; then
  source "$HOME/.local/lib/zpico/zpico.zsh"
  zpico add "zap-zsh/supercharge"
  fpath+=("$ZP_PLUGIN_HOME/pure")
  zpico add "sindresorhus/pure"
  zpico add "zsh-contrib/zsh-vivid"
  zpico add "zsh-users/zsh-completions"
  zpico add "zsh-users/zsh-syntax-highlighting"

I just can't use floating point numbers because we don't have them in kernel code.

Thus I implemented fixed-point arithmetic library with 16:16: and 24:8 format for my file manager ccd. It has multiplication, division, sqrt and trigonometric functions. Trigonometric functions measure in brads (binary radians) i.e., scale of 256 degrees.
