Managarr v0.7.0 has been released with Lidarr support!

What is Managarr?

Managarr is a terminal-based application for managing all your Servarr instances from one place. It provides a user-friendly interface to interact with your media libraries, making it easier to manage your downloads, monitor your artists and albums, and perform various actions directly from the terminal.

It sports two modes: a TUI mode (Text-based User Interface) and a CLI mode (Command Line Interface).

TUI mode gives you an interactive User Interface right inside your terminal window, allowing you to navigate through your Sonarr and Radarr libraries, view details about your series and movies, and perform actions like adding or removing items, all through keyboard shortcuts.

CLI mode lets you execute commands directly from the terminal to manage your Servarr instances without needing to open the TUI. This is great for quick tasks or for integrating with scripts and automation tools.

Richard Stallman Makes a Come Back in his first public appearance at an US event

The free software movement has been around for over four decades now. It started as a response to proprietary software licenses that restricted people from understanding, modifying, or sharing the programs they ran on their computers.

At the center of this movement is the Free Software Foundation (FSF), founded in 1985. It has been the organizational backbone for promoting software freedom, maintaining crucial free software licenses like the GPL, and supporting projects that respect user rights.

Dr. Richard Stallman has been at the forefront of this movement from day one, along with countless other people who joined up to make their collective vision a reality. If you want to hear from him directly, he's speaking at Georgia Tech on January 23.

Researchers from the University of Waterloo's Faculty of Science and the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) are prioritizing collaboration over competition to advance quantum computer development and the field of quantum information. They are doing this through Open Quantum Design (OQD), a non-profit organization that boasts the world's first open-source, full stack quantum computer.

OQD was co-founded in 2024 by faculty members in the Department of Physics and Astronomy and IQC, Drs. Crystal Senko, Rajibul Islam and Roger Melko, alongside CEO Greg Dick (BSc '93).

The group is helping reshape how quantum research is shared, opening doors for the next generation of quantum scientists, and even seeding new quantum startups.

"We are offering a shared hub where groups can contribute what they're comfortable sharing and, as a non-profit, we can be transparent about real progress without commercial pressures," Senko says.

OQD's stack spans hardware, the electronic and computing layers that run it, and open software. Their quantum computer uses ion-trapping, which involves isolating charged atoms (ions) in a vacuum and manipulating them with lasers and electromagnetic fields. This isolation allows the atoms to act as quantum bits (qubits), storing and processing information with carefully controlled interactions.

Following recent discussions over AI contributions to the LLVM open-source compiler project, they have come to an agreement on allowing AI/tool-assisted contributions but that there must be a human involved that is first looking over the code before opening any pull request and similar. Strictly AI-driven contributions without any human vetting will not be permitted.

LLVM has committed its "human in the loop" policy for tool-assisted contributions given an increase in AI-driven garbage:

"Over the course of 2025, we observed an increase in the volume of LLM-assisted nuisance contributions to the project. Nuisance contributions have always been an issue for open-source projects, but until LLMs, we made do without a formal policy banning such contributions. However, LLMs are here, so we are adopting this policy, abbreviated as "human in the loop", which requires that every contribution has a human author attesting to the value of that contribution, and that it is high enough quality that it is worth the time it takes to review the contribution."

Every year, at the end of January and the beginning of February, thousands of people from Europe and around the world gather in Brussels to discuss open source and open technologies. The main attraction is FOSDEM, Europe’s largest open source conference, which has inspired a range of side events, social activities, and workshops. For those interested in open technology, digital policy, and EU developments, OpenForum Europe’s EU Open Source Policy Summit brings together open source leaders and policymakers. Together, these events make up the EU Open Source Week.

The splendidly-named "OpenSlopware" was, for a short time, a list of open source projects using LLM bots. Due to harassment, it's gone, but forks of it live on.

"OpenSlopware" was a repository on the European Codeberg git forge containing a list of free software and open source projects which use LLM-bot generated code, or integrate LLMs, or which show signs of "coding assistants" being used on the codebase, such as pull requests created or modified by automated coding tools.

However, its creator – who we are intentionally not naming or tagging here – received so much harassment from LLM boosters that they removed the repository, and indeed their Bluesky account, stating that they would withdraw from social media for a while. Now, if you try to visit the original URL, you will receive only a 404 message.

There are oodles of neat and singular programs on github and similar. Curious what steps people take to vet for malware before downloading and trying stuff, especially if you’re not very familiar with the coding language it’s written in.

Another new release of the excellent open source video capture and streaming app OBS Studio is being prepared, with OBS Studio 32.1 Beta out now. You can get testing with a few new features and tweaks to existing features.

The main new features for this release include a new Audio Mixer, a new Add Source dialog, WebRTC Simulcast support and they added missing undo/redo actions for scene items. WebRTC Simulcast sounds like quite a fun one, allowing for multiple quality levels to be sent over one track in WebRTC. Similar in a way to what Twitch have with Enhanced Broadcasting.

If we combine these two sets of data^1 we obtain a fascinating result^2.

• 46% of all code out there, in every app, is maintained by hobbyists
• 13,8% is maintained by “I sometimes get a bit of pocket money for my code”
• 40% of all code out there is maintained by an industry-paid person

So, nearly 60% of all code being actively shipped in an app or product in the wild is hobbyist-maintained open-source.

See also this discussion on lobste.rs on the economics of the average (as in median) open source project:

https://lobste.rs/s/ftwkvo/hobbyist_maintainer_economic_gravity

To sum up, apparently most open source projects are small, and aren't funded as paid work. And they matter because of their number, which has the effect that they make up a large part of all software in use.

Wireshark 4.6.3 has been released today as the third point release to the Wireshark 4.6 series of this popular network protocol analyzer, with support for new and updated capture file and protocol support.

Coming after Wireshark 4.6.2, the Wireshark 4.6.3 release updates support for the DCT2000, DHCP, H.248, H.265, HomePlug AV, HTTP3, IDN, IEEE 802.11, LTE RRC, NAS-5GS, PKCS12, QUIC, RTPS, SOME/IP-SD, SSH, and Thrift protocols, as well as capture file support for 3GPP TS 32.423 Trace, BLF, NetScreen, and Viavi Observer.

Wireshark 4.6.3 also fixes crashes with the BLF file parser, IEEE 802.11 dissector, and SOME/IP-SD dissector, an infinite loop issue with the HTTP3 dissector, a bug preventing RTP Player streams from being stopped, ABI/API compatibility issues, and a bug in decoding 5G NAS messages.

Nginx Proxy Manager, a popular web-based and user-friendly reverse proxy management interface for Nginx, has just released version 2.13.6. Although this is only a patch release to a minor version, it actually delivers some fairly significant improvements.

The most notable change is the addition of TOTP-based two-factor authentication, allowing administrators to protect access to the web interface with time-based one-time passwords, bringing a long-requested security feature to Nginx Proxy Manager.

Certificate management has also been expanded. When creating new certificates, users can now explicitly choose between RSA and ECDSA key types, offering greater flexibility depending on compatibility or performance requirements.
