After almost 3 years of work, I've finally managed to get this project stable enough to release an alpha version!

I'm proud to present Managarr - A TUI and CLI for managing your Servarr instances! At the moment, the alpha version only supports Radarr.

Not all features are implemented for the alpha version, like managing quality profiles or quality definitions, etc.

Here's some screenshots of the TUI:

Additionally, you can use it as a CLI for Radarr; For example, to search for a new film:

managarr radarr search-new-movie --query "star wars"

Or you can add a new movie by its TMDB ID:

managarr radarr add movie --tmdb-id 1895 --root-folder-path /nfs/movies --quality-profile-id 1

All features available in the TUI are also available via the CLI.

KDE are kicking off their 2024 end-of-year fundraiser just in time for Halloween!

Even if the spine-tingling horrors of the long dark night of Walpurgis are mostly imaginary, the sinister threats of predatory proprietary software providers remain all too real.

Fear not! We, the KDE community, will help you, your friends, family, company, and community banish all the creepy and insidious proprietary software that haunts your computers, phones, and household appliances.

But we can't do it alone! We need you to help us fight the good fight against the tech-ghouls from beyond. Use the form to donate any amount to our fundraiser (or become a regular donor to our community) and help us keep the dark forces of proprietary software at bay.

Over the last few years, there has been a surge in interest and adoption of generative artificial intelligence systems, and a corresponding interest in clarifying and delineating what open source should mean for AI and how to ensure AI serves the public interest. The DPGA Secretariat has been an active part of these conversations. Recognizing the transformative potential of AI, we have explored ways to democratise its benefits, advocating for public spending on AI that prioritises public interest and equitable access. Additionally, we have been examining how the DPG Standard may need to adapt in order to better determine what constitutes AI systems as a type of digital public good, via a community of practice (CoP), co-hosted by UNICEF.

This work has been unfolding against a backdrop of other initiatives and organisations similarly addressing complex questions surrounding the future development and use of artificial intelligence in the public interest domain. One such particularly important initiative has been the work to define open source AI stewarded by the Open Source Initiative (OSI) with the involvement of a large number of stakeholders and experts. After a two year long process the Open Source AI Definition (OSAID) Version 1.0 was released on October 28.

I've been a big fan of the slick interface of Omnivore. It could process web sites, email newsletters and RSS feeds.

The users have just been informed that Omnivore has "joined" the AI startup Eleven Labs. It may be bitter how OSS projects are being sucked up by AI, but that alone sounds innocuous enough.

What is upsetting is that the users have only until the 15.11 to export their data, after which the service will be deactivated. The export format is only usable with Eleven Labs, and exports for Pocket, Instapaper, etc are not offered, which I find just insulting.

The Open Source Initiative (OSI) released the RC1 (“Release Candidate 1” meaning: This thing is basically done and will be released as such unless something catastrophic happens) of the “Open Source AI Definition“.

Some people might wonder why that matters. Some people come up with a bit of writing on AI, what else is new? That’s basically LinkedIn’s whole existence currently. But the OSI has a very special role in the Open Source software ecosystem. Because Open Source isn’t just based on the fact whether you can see code but also about the License that code is covered under: You might get code that you can see but that you are not allowed to touch (think of the recent WinAmp release debate). The OSI basically took on the role of defining which of the different licenses that were being used all over the place actually are “Open Source” and which come with restrictions that undermine the idea.

This is very important: Picking a license is a political act with strong consequences. It can allow or forbid different modes of interaction with an object or might put certain requirements to the use.

Here's Showcase

Not useful for us but very interesting.

Some part of Readme is in spanish.

Paginis is a flipbook viewer that turns your PDFs into interactive, flip-through books. You can load a PDF from a URL or upload a local file—all while pairing it with a YouTube playlist for a more dynamic experience.

What Makes It Great? I made this as a side project because I read a lot, and the typical PDF viewer always felt a bit dry. With Paginis, you can add, update, or delete quotes and notes, use the bookmark feature to easily navigate chapters and sections, and enjoy a big page preview to get a quick overview of the content. It’s all about making reading more flexible and engaging.

Libraries & Tools: PDF.js, Three.js, DFlip, JQuery_DFlip, CSS

Drivers passing through San Francisco have a new roadside distraction to consider: billboards calling out businesses that don't cough up for the open source code that they use.

The signs are the work of the Open Source Pledge – a group that launched earlier this month. It asks businesses that make use of open source code to pledge $2,000 per developer to support projects that develop the code. So far, 25 companies have signed up – but project co-founder Chad Whitacre wants bigger firms to pay their dues, too.

I use linux and android. So I don't need it. One of my windows friend asked me about it. As you known windows users are scared of terminal so GUI programme. I would also like it to be open source.

@brjsp thanks again for submitting the concern here. We have made some adjustments to how the SDK code is organized and packaged to allow you to build and run the app with only GPL/OSI licenses included. The sdk-internal package references in the clients now come from a new sdk-internal repository, which follows the licensing model we have historically used for all of our clients (see LICENSE_FAQ.md for more info). The sdk-internal reference only uses GPL licenses at this time. If the reference were to include Bitwarden License code in the future, we will provide a way to produce multiple build variants of the client, similar to what we do with web vault client builds.

The original sdk repository will be renamed to sdk-secrets, and retains its existing Bitwarden SDK License structure for our Secrets Manager business products. The sdk-secrets repository and packages will no longer be referenced from the client apps, since that code is not used there.

This appears at least okay on the surface. The clients' dependency on sdk-internal didn't change but that's okay now because they have licensed sdk-internal as GPL.

The sdk-secret will remain proprietary but that's a separate product (Secrets Manager) and will apparently not be used in the regular clients. Who knows for how long though because, if you read carefully, they didn't promise that it will not be used in the future.

The fact that they had ever intended to make parts of the client proprietary without telling anyone and attempted to subvert the GPL while doing so still remains utterly unacceptable. They didn't even attempt to apologise for that.

Bitwarden has now landed itself in the category of software that I would rather move away from and cannot wholeheartedly recommend anymore. That's pretty sad.

This program written in C will render the matrix effect in the terminal window in the background, while rendering an image in the foreground, allowing animation of this image in one or two dimensions.

Image rendering is done with chafa.

This program is the continuation and evolution of other projects:

https://gitlab.com/christosangel/ascii-matrix

https://gitlab.com/christosangel/animatrix

I've heard the main two suggestions are Codeberg and Gitlab. However, there has been some mixed feelings about GitLab I've seen across the internet in regards to them being as FOSS as Bitwarden is with their "Open-Core" model. With Codeberg though, there was a recent major security issue.

I would just be curious to get other people's thoughts throughout the community, and then I can decide where I want to migrate my repos.

Postiz is an open-source social media scheduling tool that is similar to traditional ones: Buffer, Hootsuite, SproutSocial, etc.

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

Postiz supports:

Key features:

• Schedule for nine social media platforms (Threads, Pinterest, Facebook, TikTok, Reddit, LinkedIn, Dribbble, YouTube, Instagram.)

• Fundamental analytics for almost all social media platforms.

• AI Features: Copilots, AI Auto-complete, Canva-like editor.

• Team support: Invite your team members to manage social media.

• Generic Email Provider & Easier installation experience (drop the default Resend and add a nodemailer option!)

• There are lots of improvements for the docker / docker-compose. It's much easier to deploy everything!

• Added Bluesky, Mastodon, Slack and Discord channels!

• Add multiple options for upload files (locally / R2) - working on S3.

• Improve the refresh token mechanism (even for more complicated ones like Facebook and Instagram)

• Invite to a team has significant fixes but will be refactored.

What's next:

• Postiz is a company run by one person and contributors. Accessing all the support tickets (especially installation) is difficult, so I will focus all my efforts on making installation easier.

• Productivity - many things feel bad when posting, like selecting multiple images and pasting images directly into the editor.

• Basic SSO for the self-hosters, and more advanced ones like Azure AD and Okta for the enterprise.

• Public API (unfortunately, I decided to make this feature paid; I need to make money somehow :/ )

• Tagging brands on Instagram

• Segmenting accounts into customers

• Tagging people on multiple platforms

• Tagging posts for easier searches

• Auto-plug features, like automatic repost / retweet.

I'm looking for software for making small-scale maps / designs. Say for example I wanted to map out a small-ish plot of land with various markers indicating features of the site. Another requirement is that is must have the capability to depict elevation. Others have recommended map-making software for dungeons and dragons, but of the ones I can find they are either paid / subscription models or they strictly adhere to a grid system that makes it impossible to use for my purposes.

Does anyone have some good recommendations?

Edit: It doesn't have to be a single piece of software necessarily. If anyone has recommendations for a particular workflow (like for example if you know some good open source drawing software I could use to draw over the top of a topographic map) I'm interested in that as well.

The app is very rough and only have search functionality and might need months to get to great point, but I am super relived to see someone working on a true third party native client.

I wanted to share it with the community here, because the wikipedia app for android sucks on so many levels.

Over the past 3 years the pace of development in APS has steadily fallen off as maintainers including myself have moved on to other things. I no longer have time and motivation to dedicate to this project, and in the absence of significant external contributions there is no-one else I can offer the project's stewardship to.

To that effect, I will be archiving the repository on Monday, October 14th 2024 at 7AM GST. In the situation that a serious and viable fork emerges, I will help them as much as I can with the transition. The criteria for what counts as "serious and viable" is entirely vibes-driven for now, and may become more specific in the future. In case I determine that a fork does not live up to my made up standard, they will have to come up with a slightly more creative name than "Android Password Store" and watch low 4 figures of cash wither away in OpenCollective's bank account.

Reason is a combination of Google making Play publishing something between hard and impossible and no active maintenance. The app saw no significant development for a long time and without Play releases I do no longer see enough benefit and/or have enough motivation to keep up the ongoing maintenance an app requires even without doing much, if any, changes.

Sad to see it go. There is a fork but seems not so great considering they are looking for active maintainer. Still better than nothing. Need to check it out as it has some enhancements.

Planning to close my Google Play Developer Account. Please say hi if you are interested in obtaining the latest gplay release files from me to help in publishing this app
