Here are a few of my faves:

• Breezy Weather - Nice weather app.
• Diatronome - Tuner, metronome, and synth
• NewPipe / NeuTube - I haven't found my fave tube app.
• Suntimes - Information and widgets about the sun and moon.

I'm just looking for some recommendations. It's difficult browsing through apps with F-Droid. Thanks!

President Donald Trump said Saturday during an interview with his daughter-in-law that the US should not have waged war on Iran, while making contradictory claims about destroying Iran's military and leaving it alone.

“You look at what happened with Iraq. We did so bad. It was such a foolish thing what we did. We shouldn’t have been there in the first place, by the way,” Trump told Lara Trump, who hosts Fox News' "My View."

“We shouldn’t have been in Iran, but Iran has the capability," he said, referring to the Islamic Republic's nuclear program.

Former US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard testified before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence last year that “Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and [the late] Supreme Leader Khamanei had not authorized the nuclear weapons program he suspended in 2003.” US intelligence agencies have repeatedly come to the same conclusion since the George W. Bush administration.

Trump claimed that without US bombing, Iran "would have a nuclear weapon right now and will be a whole different story."

“If we didn’t hit them with B-2 bombers, nine months ago, they would have a nuclear weapon right now," he said.

"Their military, we've sort of left it alone because we think that their military is somewhat moderate," Trump said right after saying that "their navy is gone, 100%," and "their air force is gone, 100%."

The president also claimed that he will negotiate a "great" end to the war with Iran, or "we'll just go back and finish it off militarily."

"We're close to a very good deal," he said.

You saw Venezuela," Trump said, referring to the country the US bombed and invaded in January to abduct President Nicolás Maduro and bring him to the United States to face dubious narco-terrorism charges.

At least 3,468 people have been killed in US-Israeli attacks on Iran since February 28, according to Iran’s Ministry of Health, including 496 women and 376 children.

Kovi Rose, a doctoral researcher at the University of Sydney, led an international team that discovered what researchers are calling a “Rosetta stone” for these mysterious signals. Just as the original Rosetta Stone unlocked the meaning of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics, this newly identified star system may finally give astronomers a key for interpreting one of the stranger unsolved problems in modern astronomy.

“For the first time we have pinpointed the origin of these signals, confirming the source to be a ‘cataclysmic variable’, or an accreting white dwarf star,” Rose said in a statement.

What used to be the “wrong side of the tracks” is now the city’s climate escape route, and Black residents are being pushed off the path they built.

Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson joked there may be a place for Canada in the European Union to join “like-minded” nations as “the most Nordic country in the world outside the Nordics.”

“European Union is obviously a matter of geography, you can hear that from the name,” Kristersson told CTV Question Period host Vassy Kapelos when asked for his opinion on comments by other world leaders that Canada should join the EU.

“But it is also a matter of values, and a matter of what countries would you like to integrate together with in different aspects,” he added, laughing. “So, it’s not for me to say, but the European Union is a very welcoming club for (the) like-minded.”

Finnish President Alexander Stubb made headlines last month when he commented on the possibility of Canada joining the EU. Asked by Kapelos about those comments during an interview on CTV Question Period at the time, Stubb said he wasn’t the one who raised the idea, but that he hopes Canada and the EU can “be as close as possible.”

“I would embrace you, because I think you guys are great, and you would slot into the system like nothing before,” Stubb said of the hypothetical scenario.

How it's going

You may have heard of Programmatic Tool Calling from anthropic or Code Mode from cloudflare for calling mcp servers. I have been working on an open source version of this and recently put together some basic docs, and thought this page would be a good one to share. There are plenty of other features to explore, but this one alone has resulted in significant improvements in the speed of execution in many tasks including minecraft playing agents, computer use agents, and for querying and aggregating information from my telemetry systems in a lightweight low risk way.
