🚨 RATCHET & CLANK IS RUNNING NATIVELY ON PC & ANDROID! 🚀🔥📱

🎮 OpenRAC is bringing the classic PlayStation 2 Ratchet & Clank games to modern platforms through genuine decompilation!

The original Ratchet & Clank is already listed as playable, with several sequels in development!

✅ NATIVE WINDOWS, LINUX, macOS & ANDROID SUPPORT!

✅ ANDROID APK WITH CUSTOMISABLE TOUCHSCREEN CONTROLS!

✅ BLUETOOTH CONTROLLERS, WIDESCREEN & ENHANCED GRAPHICS!

✅ DEDICATED LAUNCHER & GODOT 4 LEVEL EDITOR!

🔥 The Android version includes adjustable on-screen controls, graphics settings, support for modern GPU drivers and an optional Vulkan renderer!

📱 Play using touchscreen controls or connect a controller for a more traditional experience!

🛠️ The project also includes modding tools for creating and editing levels, while work continues on Going Commando, Up Your Arsenal, Deadlocked, Size Matters and Secret Agent Clank!

🔧 TECH NOTE: OpenRAC uses matching decompilation to reconstruct the original PS2 code in C, compiling it into native applications. Android uses an ARM64 build with OpenGL ES rendering — no PS2 emulator required!

⚠️ WORK IN PROGRESS! Only the original Ratchet & Clank is currently listed as playable. The remaining games are still in development.

Android requires Android 10+, compatible ARM64 hardware and your own supported game files.

🛠️ By the OpenRAC contributors.

Linux gaming keeps getting cooler and I still somehow don't make enough time to play anything

[The Gaming Emporium @McGroin83]

🚨 METROID DREAD NOW RUNS NATIVELY ON LINUX — WITH 60 FPS GAMEPLAY ON STEAM DECK OLED! 🔥🎮

💥 A new release of the Metroid Dread PC recompilation brings native Linux support, and the results are seriously impressive!

✅ NATIVE LINUX BUILD — NO PROTON REQUIRED!

✅ 60 FPS GAMEPLAY TESTED ON STEAM DECK OLED!

✅ DOWNLOADABLE APPIMAGE WITH BUILT-IN SETUP!

✅ CONTROLLER SUPPORT, GRAPHICS SETTINGS & MODS!

🔥 Developer DaniSald reports a steady 60 FPS during a nine-minute Steam Deck OLED gameplay test!

🐧 The AppImage includes the tools needed to compile the game from your own files, with no separate compiler installation required!

🔧 TECH NOTE: Uses SwitchRecomp to translate the original Nintendo Switch ARM64 game code into native PC code. This is a Linux adaptation of the existing recompilation, not a conventional Switch emulator wrapper!

⚠️ EARLY PREVIEW! Full-game compatibility isn't confirmed. Native Vulkan and several Windows features aren't available on Linux yet.

Requires your own Metroid Dread 2.1.0 game files.

🛠️ Linux port by DaniSald, based on the original recompilation by yozander2009-stack and SwitchRecomp by MZ Labs.

I love seeing people automate the most soul-crushing parts of job hunting

[Charly Wargnier ♨️ @DataChaz]

🚨 this guy built an insane AI job-hunting agent for Claude Code.

He used it to rip through 700+ applications and it literally got him hired.

AND HE JUST OPEN-SOURCED IT.

It scrapes career sites, completely tailors your CV for each role, and fills out the forms.

The repo includes:

→ 14 skill modes (evaluate, scan, PDF, ...)
→ 45+ companies pre-loaded (Anthropic, OpenAI, ElevenLabs, Stripe...)
→ Go terminal dashboard
→ ATS-optimized PDF generation via Playwright

100% Free and open-source.

Do any women actually have running shorts that stay put the entire run? Cause I need to know

👀 Aperire One is live. Open source, and one command to install.

One pane of glass for every XRPLD validator and node you run.

I've been building this for months. It's the next generation of my validator dashboard, rebuilt from the ground up to watch a whole fleet from one screen. It's out now, right before Swell week in New York.

The problem with running more than one node.
- A dashboard and a login for every box
- Alerts that don't say which box fired
- Updates by hand, one terminal at a time

What it does.
- Every node and validator on one dashboard behind one sign in, with State, Health, Alerts and Release on each row
- A live validator panel inside its peer ring, with a ledger ticker underneath
- 175 metrics, tiered so the urgent ones come first
- Alerts by email, push, Discord, Slack or webhook, and every alert names the node that fired
- Passkey sign in, so there are no passwords and no third party login service
- Updates for the whole fleet from one page, one node at a time
- An optional AI Advisor that answers questions about any node in plain words. Anything it does needs a code and a passkey, and each step lands in a hash chained log that names who approved it

Security came first from day one, and I never traded it away to ship sooner. It only reads. It never signs or submits anything, and it never opens a port on the validator. The Advisor runs under its own account with no Docker access, and the validator key never reaches it. Every release runs on real servers before it ships. Anything that touches root or keys gets its own security review. Releases are signed, and the installer checks the signature before it runs.

It fits more than one shape. Put the node and the dashboard on one box, or keep the validator on its own box and the dashboard somewhere else. One node or a whole fleet, it's the same install.

Free and MIT licensed, built by an operator for operators.

I love seeing a layout engine get faster while all those weird edge cases get cleaned up

[Rust Bytes 🦀 @rustaceans_rs]

Taffy v0.15.1 got released!

> This release speeds up flexbox 15-20% for deep trees and fixes multiple layout bugs in floats, grid, and baselines.

I can't imagine trying to police what tools developers used to write code

[Forha @Forhanvv]

r/opensource banned any project using AI, which means the Linux kernel is officially banned from r/opensource. 💀😂

Linus Torvalds already called blanket AI bans "utterly stupid" and kernel maintainers review code based on quality, not whether Copilot helped write it.

Reddit moderation attempting to police upstream software development is the absolute definition of AI psychosis.

I don't love the idea of companies selling the models also getting to decide what I'm allowed to run

[Alexey Fateev @superalesha]

The anti-open-weights panic looks VERY FUCKING CONVENIENT ahead of Anthropic’s IPO.

Anthropic is preparing to sell shares while pushing rules that would also cover its open-weight competitors. Big accounts are spreading fear about those models. Some have direct business ties to Anthropic.

October 15: reports put Anthropic’s public IPO filing on

October 26 and its roadshow on November 9. Billions depend on convincing investors this business can keep growing.

October 16: Anthropic’s own AI bill is circulating in Congress. Its frontier threshold is 10^25 FLOPs, low enough to include large open models.

October 21: PHP2Shell becomes public. Researchers found the vulnerabilities using CLOSED models, with disclosure and fixes coordinated through OpenAI’s Patch the Planet.

October 22: abliterated open models become a major target of the panic. Anthropic’s CISO posts "never let a crisis go to waste" urging security leaders to ask their boards for help with basic security. 4.3M views.

By October 25, Gates’s proposal is circulating too: powerful open models should run only on certified platforms that preserve safeguards.

I went through 400+ posts from October 16 to 26. This discussion includes Noahpinion, Suhail, yacine, beffjezos, Deedy, sporadica, AISafetyMemes, Matthew Green and Andrew Curran. Every account above 100K followers. Their positions differ, but the fear is reaching huge audiences.

And Deedy, who linked critical vulnerabilities to abliterated models, helped launch Menlo’s $100M fund WITH ANTHROPIC.

There is a business relationship here. There is an IPO coming. There is a company writing proposed rules for the market it competes in.

My conclusion: this wave serves the commercial interests of closed labs. Restrict the models people can run independently and you make those people more dependent on paid providers. Investors benefit from that dependence.

I run open models on my own 4x 3090. I will not quietly accept losing that freedom while people with money in the alternative explain how much safer I’ll be.

Fuck your valuation. Fuck your IPO.

I keep meaning to learn this pattern because distributed systems have enough ways to make my life harder already

You see this thing called transactional outbox pattern ?

It will save you a lot while building a distributed systems.

Rust without Cargo or the standard library sounds like a very specific kind of pain

[Ayaan 🐧 @twtayaan]

Linux’s Rust debate just got bigger as systemd officially adds Rust support.

The software that boots your system and manages its services now allows developers to write new standalone components in Rust.

Support has merged into main for systemd 263. Existing C code won’t be rewritten, and core libraries will stay in C.

There are strict rules too. No Cargo, no Rust standard library. Everything builds through Meson.

The first planned component is systemd-keyring-setup, which loads certificates into Linux kernel keyrings.

Rust is becoming part of more of the software Linux runs on.

I love the confidence of basically saying go fork it 😂 that's how open source should work

[Peer Richelsen @peer_rich]

we've been open source for many many years

you can just fork the repo if you want the code

so we're not really scared of people vibe coding their own scheduler

This is the exact kind of overengineered Halloween thing I would get way too excited about

[0xMarioNawfal @RoundtableSpace]

Hazel is an open-source talking Halloween candy dispenser built around a 3D-printed witch.

→ A sonar sensor detects visitors; she greets them and asks for "trick or treat" before dropping candy
→ Claude generates her replies and ElevenLabs handles speech and voice; both need API keys
→ Code limits one candy per child, three per group, plus a cooldown
→ Visitors' words go to both services; the README suggests a sign at the door, and a soak test is still open

I'd rather fix one annoying bug in an open source repo than submit a massive refactor nobody asked for

[Grandfather🔥💫 @Grand_father007]

A security fix can exist for months and still leave the internet exposed.

That’s one of the most interesting details in Reuters’ latest report on OpenAI’s security testing.

While testing AI agents against restricted environments, OpenAI says it uncovered a vulnerability in Brotli, a widely used data-compression library.

The uncomfortable part?

The underlying code had reportedly been corrected in February, but an updated release wasn't issued until after OpenAI disclosed the vulnerability.

Why this matters:
Finding a bug isn't the same as fixing it for everyone.
Software projects depend on maintainers, release schedules and downstream applications to deliver patches.
A flaw in one shared component can affect many products built on top of it.
AI-assisted security research could accelerate discovery, but defenders still need to distribute and install fixes.

This is the less glamorous side of cybersecurity: the internet depends on thousands of software components most users will never hear about.

A vulnerability isn't truly dealt with just because someone knows how to fix it. The fix has to reach the systems that need it.

Omarchy Mobile: this week's update

It was a big week, and more than half of it came from the community. Ports to new Pixels moved forward, a lot of hardware support landed, and the daily-driver experience on the Pixel 7 Pro got more polished.

🌱 New devices

- Pixel Fold (felix): went from first light to a real bring-up. Storage behind our read-only safety guard, the GPU enabled, volume keys, the power key, the hinge sensor and the cover screen's console. Work has started on its cover touchscreen. Thanks, boozedog!
- Pixel 8 Pro (husky, Tensor G3): our mainline kernel boots it with USB and SSH. Getting there turned up and fixed a USB bug that froze the phone, and that fix can go upstream to Linux too. Thanks, greenbrettmichael!
- Pixel 9a (tegu, Tensor G4): first light is recorded. More than a dozen kernel pieces for Tensor G4 merged, covering clocks, storage, pins, power management, GPU and touch, and a read-only battery gauge is in review. Thanks, W4HO-ham!
- Pixel 7a (lynx): new this week! A first-light board and an on-screen console are in review. Thanks, latentoperator!
- Pixel 6 (gs101): the build and flash tooling, bootloader glue and Mali-G78 GPU support merged. Thanks, robotosaith and bilacc!
- Also in progress: the Pixel 4 and the POCO F3, our first non-Pixel port.

📱 Pixel 7 Pro, the reference phone

- Camera: Night mode and HDR in omacam. Several raw frames are aligned and merged on the phone, and libcamera gained noise reduction and defective-pixel correction.
- Calls: groundwork for phone calls, with calls over the lock screen, a call indicator, Do Not Disturb that lets starred contacts through, and an Emergency call button on the lock screen.
- Notifications: you can reply straight from the notification.
- Charging: the charger and its battery-temperature guard now start at boot.
- Suspend: Wi-Fi stays connected across sleep and we've measured the first sleep power numbers.
- Fingerprint: unlock keeps working across sleep.
- Updates: Omarchy updates now follow Omarchy's stable channel on the phone, and our phone patches are reapplied automatically after each update.
- Kernel cleanup: the Tensor G2 watchdog and power-management hardware is now documented to upstream standards, and the result booted on the phone this week.

🛠️ For contributors

- Every pull request now runs automatic checks in both repositories, kernel included.
- There's a one-command phone smoke test for PR reports.
- Shared install tooling handles new devices, and the installer refuses images built for another device.
- We reviewed more than 20 pull requests this week, and our review notes and lessons are public.

🙌 Get involved

Have a spare Pixel 6, 7, 8 or 9? Check the supported-devices page and the Wanted list in the repo, and open an issue so efforts don't overlap. Have another phone or tablet with an unlocked bootloader? Point your agents to the repo and have them get to work!
