The #ArchLinux ports #RFC is accepted and ready to be merged and published: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/rfcs/-/merge_requests/32

Although it was a long journey, I'm happy it is now ratified.
Thanks to everyone who spent time writing and reviewing it and provided valuable feedback!

There is still a lot of work ahead adapting and improving our tooling and I hope many will join in this effort.

Here is to #ArchLinux on many more architectures in the future 🥂

(meanwhile I have three more RFCs in the pipeline 😅)

Meet oct-git, a new #OpenPGP signing and verification tool for use with the #Git distributed version control system:

https://crates.io/crates/openpgp-card-tool-git 🦀

oct-git focuses exclusively on ergonomic use with OpenPGP card-based signing keys

It is designed to be easy to set up, standalone (no long running processes), and entirely hands-off to use (no repeated PIN entry required, by default). It comes with desktop notifications for touch confirmation (if required)

I have just released version 0.1.0 of the #nethsm #crate, a library abstracting the use of the @nitrokey #NetHSM:

https://crates.io/crates/nethsm

Please have a look at the #documentation for further information on how to use it:
https://docs.rs/nethsm/0.1.0/nethsm/

The project is a milestone in the creation of a general purpose #SigningEnclave which we hope can be used for artifact signing purposes on #ArchLinux in the future.

I have some haunting memories of the smell of that stuff because I cleaned a set of devices for a client with it for two days straight and it really made me not enjoy any drinks with orange zests in them, leave alone orange juice... for. weeks. but! If you need to clean a surface and don't want to use heavy solvents, give WEICON Industrial Citrus Cleaner (with lemonene being the main cleaning agent) a try! It dissolves left over adhesives in the blink of an eye. (not a paid advertisement)

We have just issued the first #release of #sshd-openpgp-auth and #ssh-openpgp-auth.

Using this server and client-side tooling it is possible to manage the #authentication of #SSH host keys with the help of an #OpenPGP certificate as trust anchor.

Really happy with how the @sovtechfund funded "OpenPGP for application developers" turned out! 🎉

The #documentation is now live (also available as #epub ):

Thanks for the great collaboration @MsUppity, @vanitasvitae, @hko, @wiktor and Sabrina. 🥳
Hope to do some more!

I learnt a lot over the past few months. 📚

A regular #ArchLinux install takes up roughly 1 GB of space, because it comes with firmware for all possible hardware.

Is there a way to safely and automatically remove unneeded firmware?

The boards for #8seg, a light installation I'm doing just arrived. Here's some pictures of the #gerbolyze'd bottom sides.

An abstract fog pattern printed on the bottom side of a small circuit board using a half-tone technique.
A close-up of the first picture showing detail around the circuit board's pads, where the half-tone pattern stays clear of the pads.
A close-up shot of the second picture, showing that the half-tone pattern is based on a random scattering of points instead of some geometric pattern.

Language Server Protocol is one of these things where someone's like "but wouldn't it be better if we implemented it like this" and suddenly everyone is in utter disbelief how nobody has thought of this before.

Because yes, it's total bonkers that every editor should implement its understanding of a programming language from scratch.

Next thing I wanna see is the same thing, but for syntax highlighting. We're already getting a taste of it via Tree-sitter.

Hey all!

How is you Monday going so far? How are you doing migrating from Pydantic v1 to Pydantic v2?

Today is a good time to tell us about issues you have migrating to v2 or just using Pydantic in general.
