Secure boot is coming to Omarchy. We're doing the dance so you can install the best operating system without having to fiddle with the bios. (And so OEMs can preinstall it from the factory!)

@imanrahmati @omarchy Wait until he finds out why Debian is called Debian.

@SnazzyLabs Speed running your way to burnout.

“AI tools were used to steal unreleased code” is such a bizarre headline.

But this truly is the messaging I’m seeing throughout the Leftist Open Source social media today. That Omarchy “stole” code, from Asahi, which was “unreleased”.

1) If it’s open source, and you comply with the license terms, you can do whatever you want with the code. Even if the original copyright holder doesn’t like you.

2) If code is available on a public source repository, and the license allows it, you can just copy it. Calling it “unreleased”, and therefore off limits, is just plain odd.

Asahi Linux’s anger at another Open Source project building on Asahi’s Open Source code is one of the most anti-Open Source things I’ve seen in quite some time.

Omarchy is forever free. There's no monetization scheme coming. I'm already rich and the Omacom Foundation is a well-founded nonprofit.

The only ulterior motive here is to make Linux win on the desktop and create the perfect, malleable computer for all to enjoy!

Working in Quest 2 (untested), Quest 3 and Quest 3s at 90 fps.

Important: no ROMs, no Nintendo code. The app contains none of the game. You need your own Super Mario 64 (USA) ROM, and a script in the repo builds the game from it on your computer and pushes it to the headset.

@asda Our child has multiple allergies and can’t eat regular chocolate. Your 94g Free From Giant Choc Jazzies went from £2.48 last Christmas to £4.52 this year. An 82% rise is egregious. Why couldn’t a retailer your size absorb some of the cost for families with so few options?

Omarchy 4.5 is finally here! Traditional desktop mode, M1/M2/M3/Neo compatibility, 50 languages, 7-second installs, and a million other features, fixes, and improvements. https://t.co/lYxY1zFxAM

Home Secretary, comparing live facial recognition to DNA matching is misleading. DNA produces highly reliable matches under controlled conditions; this technology involves mass-scanning every passer-by in public against a watchlist, converting faces into biometric templates without individual consent or suspicion.

Operational data show low false-alert rates after human review, yet independent testing has repeatedly found higher error rates for certain ethnic groups, women and younger people. Some deployments have scanned hundreds of thousands of faces for almost no useful arrests. Non-matches are said to be deleted immediately, but the Home Office has already admitted the process interferes with Article 8 privacy rights, and critics rightly note it treats law-abiding people as potential suspects by default.

Promising future “watertight” laws simply confirms that current rules have been inadequate for the scale already in use. Expanding this further while downplaying consent, bias, mission-creep risks and the gap between promotional claims and real-world results is not a public-safety advance, it is a significant expansion of surveillance that the public has every reason to question.

You’re not engaging with anything she actually said. You’re dismissing her entirely because she follows Andrew Tate, Tommy Robinson, Katie Hopkins and Rupert Lowe, and treating that list as if it settles the argument. That’s pure guilt by association, the kind of crude, low-effort reasoning used by actual uneducated, illiterate fools.

What’s especially weak about it is the double standard. You’ve already labelled her a “racist right-wing scumbag” and an “uneducated fool” on the basis of the same kind of association. If following certain accounts is enough to condemn someone, the same standard applies to you when you follow and amplify people who share your own political views. Either following someone is evidence of endorsement, or it isn’t. You can’t treat it as decisive when it suits you and meaningless when it doesn’t.
