I just commited a sin i *hate* when others do it because links count agains the character limit. Sorry.

Umbrel: umbrel.com
Zima: zimaspace.com
Truenas: www.truenas.com

They sell hardware/applicances too.

Then you have to pick an OS. Ranges from"just you and an ssh cli" to kiosk style "pick your apps in a web frontend and never see a terminal"

Unless you are already a sysadmin, i'd recommend starting somewhere closer to a kiosk, eg Zima or Umbrel. Truenas Scale if you want more freedom.

Hardware wise i think using something you have beats buying something in the current market. The laptop should have an rj45 network port (you can add one with a usb adapter but ugh).

If you want to buy something it depends on what you plan to host on it. I'd say at least 4 cores and 16gb ram

It's very easy to self-host too. I recently added it to my home-lab in 2 clicks (and a little reverse proxy configuration).

Biggest todo on the list right now:

🚨Google wants to kill Android freedom

We've signed an Open Letter to urge #Google to keep #Android #free & #open!

Otherwise Google’s Android is becoming Apple: Your device, their rules.

And i doubt they will be anytime soon, if at all. Likely already "sold" to a higher bidder. Question is, will they get them or is it just phantom stock at this point?

As a formal methods PhD, it's embarrassing for Anthropic to incorrectly describe static analysis in their Claude Code Security announcement. Security and formal methods engineers already have data "reasoning" tools, this isn't the bottleneck, false positives, which LLMs absolutely have, is.

A political cartoon of a Trojan horse labeled “Protect Children” being pulled into a city gate by figures labeled “EU Member States,” while inside the horse a panel reads “Mass Surveillance,” implying hidden surveillance measures introduced under the pretext of child protection.

Today is the day, the EU decides on Chat Control 1.0. Will they let the Trojan Horse through the gate and let Google, Microsoft, LinkedIn etc continue to scan all your messages?

We at Tuta say NO. 

❌ No scanning
❌ No mass surveillance
❌ No age verification

Don't like the age verification that Discord announced? Looking for a Discord alternative? I sure have been! I've gone ahead and put together a list of alternatives and their fitness for use in communities big and small.

A Chatto post where I'm gushing about the amount of JS transferred by Chatto when you load it. "This is still one of my favorite properties of Chatto. That's the amount of (compressed) JS transferred from the server to the client after a hard reload. For comparison, Slack and Discord are at around 10 MB each. [screenshot showing 31.7 kB of 112 kB transferred] This is the amount of JS transferred on a normal visit (with a warm browser cache.) [screenshot showing 0.0 kB / 80 kB transferred] (The first number is the amount of JS transferred. The second number is the total resources; fonts, images, etc.)"

Thanks Svelte

This is huge news!! Super excited to be working with @ariperkkio.dev ❤️

ESLint v10 ships with a Node.js version requirement that necessitates `require(esm)`, yet the package remains CJS only.

Why?

Yes, in the best way.

Success message and celebration reaction for sveltekit passing vite-ecosystem-ci with vite-8 beta for the first time

It took a while, lots of debugging and fixes in rolldown, vite-plugin-svelte and sveltekit, but today it happened. For the first time, sveltekit tests in vite-ecosystem-ci for vite-8 beta passed.

Thanks to everyone who helped getting there especially @sapphi.red

you can't take watch mode from my cold dead hands, they'll keep fighting.

while you're at it, cut one for @willow.sh as well, so much cool stuff on npm.willow.sh , eg. url state for package content
