This is absolutely awesome! The @leavex campaign now has their website up an running, so we can see exactly which members of the EU parliament still support Musk's disinformation platform X, and avoid voting for them.

I hope @leavex expands to add every national parliament — the disinformation has to end.

Se their excellent overview here:

Please boost this to support the campaign.

Ruby 4.0.1 Released https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2026/01/13/ruby-4-0-1-released/

This release includes a bugfix for Kernel#sleep, along with other bugfixes. We recommend upgrading your Ruby version at your earliest convenience.

The annotated #Ruby 4 changelog by @zverok is truly fantastic https://rubyreferences.github.io/rubychanges/4.0.html

I wish every programming language had such a high-quality resource! Well done, Viktor!

  Gentoo goes binary at @fosdem

“The saga of official binary packages for #Gentoo #Linux”
🗓️ Sunday, 13:00–13:25

Gentoo’s move from purely source‑based installs to offering official #binary #packages has been a major milestone. Andreas K. Hüttel and Sam James will share how new formats, signing, automated rebuilds, and dedicated build hosts made it all work — and what’s coming next.

A great session for anyone curious about Gentoo’s evolution.

Wow, #Gentoo moving from GitHub to Codeberg is cool. Haven't run Gentoo for years now but still have a soft spot for it (I learned so much running it as main driver).

I also use Codeberg für my code (and joined the association) but we can't just "move everything to Codeberg". That's neither sustainable nor a good model. We should have more associations like Codeberg to offer those kinds of services. Create a whole web of forges for collaboration while we can watch GitHub go to hell.

Gentoo's 2025 retrospective encapsulates everything I like about the project: it's chugging along just fine, it's not going for dramatic changes, chasing trends or "business friendliness". It's doing what it does well and that's it. It's a genuine volunteer-based project and a far cry from the many corporate-sponsored ones.
