Hi all, Codeberg currently needs help with the following: We wish to deploy the latest version of our registration form for new members (with lots of new information) under: https://join.codeberg.org

Before we do so, we need some more translations by the community. You can view a more recent version and compare here: https://join-test.codeberg.org

If there's still work left to do for your language and you have a few spare minutes, it'd help: https://translate.codeberg.org/projects/codeberg/ev-registration-server/

if you mean with genAI, no, it's ~100% hype and breaks no new ground at tremendous expense

e.g. i covered some on thursday https://pivot-to-ai.com/2026/04/09/claude-mythos-the-ai-hacking-model-too-good-to-release-allegedly/

Commenting on people's appearances is wrong, but Eric Swalwell looks exactly like a guy who would do that.

New worker-owned foodie news site coming out: https://www.weareravenous.com/coming-soon/

This is the future of journalism. As Ravenous write in their intro there;

“We believe the best way forward for media and journalism is without generative AI, without VC money and investors to pay back, and without corporate overlords more concerned about posting endless profits than the actual writing that is supposedly their “product.””

Agreed, and love to see it! Best of luck to them.

I just made a new minor release of GeoClue, the freedesktop D-bus location server. Highlights of the release are fixes to NMEA parsing and Wifi device selection.

Thanks to all the contributors!

I'm as fascinated by the Artemis II mission as many other people, but as scientist I'm frustrated that experts interviewed about it in the media are rarely asked to justify the truly astronomical cost. So far the program is reported to have cost $93Bn, with the direct costs of this mission alone amounting to more than $4Bn. I'm perhaps particularly sensitive to this because I'm frequently asked to justify funding three orders of magnitude smaller that we have used to improve knowledge of how the Antarctic ice sheet will respond to climate change and contribute to future sea-level rise.

@kestral Adobe is why we can’t have nice, or saucy, things! GIMP forever!!

Holy shit, it's really true.

Yes pollen allergies are getting worse!

No it's not because of sexism!

It's because of climate change!

It would be cool if we could focus on fixing THAT, instead of chasing our tails with botanical sexism!

We spent years teaching people not to paste secrets into Slack. Turns out we should've been watching the AI they're pasting them into instead.

Amazon just pulled Kindle Store access from every Kindle released before 2013. The hardware still works. Your books still work. Side-loading EPUBs over USB still works.

The fix is the same one that's worked since 2007 — and here's exactly how to do it, step by step:

“Discord is in the business of making money by selling their users’ personal data,” EFF's Samantha Baldwin told @arstechnica. “They are implementing ‘age verification’ to meet regulatory compliance and to collect more data about their customers, not protect children.” https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2026/04/dad-stuck-in-support-nightmare-after-teen-lied-about-age-on-discord/

It's hard not to do a puff piece about JD Vance. That's a very puffy man.
