Bayreuth Was für ein Horror! Dienstag, ca. 17 Uhr. Ein sieben Jahre alter Junge kommt aus dem Schwimmbad und möchte mit dem Fahrrad nach Hause. Doch ihn spricht ein Mann an, verspricht ihm eine Pizza - und greift sich dann den kleinen Jungen! Er packt das Kind, zieht es mit sich, schleift es regelrecht hinter sich her. Über eine rote Ampel, durch eine Unterführung, auf einen Fußweg. Dann endlich kann sich der Junge befreien. Er rennt nach Hause, erzählt seinem Vater von dem Erlebten. Nun fahndet die Polizei nach dem Mann, der wie folgt beschrieben wird: • 50 bis 60 Jahre alt • dunkle Haut • schielt auffallend • schwarze Nike-Kappe • braune kurze Hose • braunes T‑Shirt Hinweise an die Kriminalpolizei Bayreuth unter der Telefonnummer 0921/5060.

It begins - my agents are diving in to this M6 Mac Mini to bring it up under Omarchy Linux as quickly as possible. Let's see how long it takes us to get from macOS About screen to Omarchy About screen. They're pulling some benchmarks first to see how it performs for local AI.

1/ Cinematic upgrade Use this when you want a normal video to look more professional. Prompt: Edit this video into a cinematic clip. Keep [main subject] unchanged.

Example: Edit this video into a cinematic clip. Keep my face and outfit unchanged. Improve the lighting to look like warm sunset light. Add slow camera movement, soft contrast, and a calm luxury mood. Do not change the background or my body movement.

I see builders doing wild things on omarchy so I started zooming with them to ask how they do what they do? David: Builder #7 @davidzu Type 1 diabetic. His android sensor app didn't show him enough data, so he built his own app on omarchy! Rails backend. Native kotlin android app. "I don't know anything about kotlin."...but he shipped anyway with deepseek agents. That's David's whole vibe...Just build it. omarchy.builders now spans 6 countries!!!! Mexico joined the chat fam... omarchy.builders/builders/da… Wanna chat with me and tell me YOUR story? Schedule your time here: calendly.com/nixfred More than 20+ scheduled! /@dhh

I want to meet the people behind the X usernames. Your background, what you're working on, what excites you, and what brought you to Omarchy, AI, linux and tech in general. Complete beginners, seasoned devs, AI experts, or folks who installed linux yesterday are all welcome! Some of the best conversations happen with people from different backgrounds so I want to hear your story, swap ideas, and make some new friends. It's FREE. No sales pitch, no agenda, no expectations. Just 2 folks who share an interest in tech and talking to strangers! LOL! Let's make this community about more than software and get to know the people who make it great. Grab a time slot and let's chat on zoom! (PLS RT!) calendly.com/nixfred

The more agents and projects you have running, the harder it gets to keep track of everything through chat alone. This is where Hermes Kanban comes in. Here's how Hermes Kanban works, why it's worth using, and how I'd recommend setting it up: Chat is where you work with an agent. Kanban is where you manage the work across agents. Hermes Kanban gives you a visual dashboard for tracking tasks across your agents and projects. But it's much more than a task board. Here's what you can do with it: • Create tasks and assign them to specific Hermes agents. • Track what's ready, running, blocked, or completed. • Set dependencies so tasks wait for other work to finish. • Coordinate handoffs between specialized agents. • Review progress and see where something needs your attention. And with the dispatcher, Hermes can pick up tasks that are ready to run and launch the appropriate agent to handle them. Now, here's something I'd recommend: **Create a separate Kanban board for each major project.** For example: 📌 Content production Research → Drafting → Review → Assets → Done 📌 Software development Bugs → Features → Testing → Review → Done 📌 Business operations Research → Waiting → In Progress → Blocked → Done Hermes supports multiple isolated boards, so each project can have its own tasks, workspaces, logs, and agent workflows. You can also connect a board to a Hermes Project to keep the work tied to the right project context. The more work you hand off to Hermes, the more valuable this becomes. Instead of digging through conversations trying to figure out what every agent is doing, give each project its own board and manage the work from one place. 🎥 Video credit: @tomcrawshaw01

U gonna piss somebody off no matter what u do, say, wear, or believe in, so fuck it. Get comfortable being disliked. Get comfortable being spoken about, lied on, and misunderstood. It’s kinda fun anyway.

We, the Kurdish and Israeli peoples, live among monsters in the Middle East. Damn you and your religion that allows you to treat human beings with such brutality.

After a long day at work in macOS, it's so nice to slip into something a little more comfortable. Thanks @OmarchyLinux

Introducing Hommies A little buddy in your Omarchy that keeps an eye on all your running coding agents. I watch podcasts, play games, stream… and my agents never sit stuck on a dumb permission prompt or a silly question anymore. It pings me, and I answer right from the floating buddy or the top bar. Before this, I'd come back hours later and find my agent frozen on "Allow this command?" or on a question in some tab I forgot about. Not anymore. It's saved me hours. Works with Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode & Omacode. Setup in 3 steps: 1️⃣ npm i -g @thisisayande/hommies 2️⃣ hommies setup (finds your agents and adds its hooks to their settings. Your existing hooks stay, and every file it touches gets backed up first.) 3️⃣ omarchy plugin add github.com/ayandexyz/hommies… Additional step :- omarchy restart shell Done with it? run > hommies uninstall removes every hook it added. Clean exit. Animation inspired by @tahayvr 🙌 @dhh @OmarchyLinux ❤️ PRs welcome! I want Hommies to become a full desktop assistant, not just an agent watcher. npm package - github.com/ayandexyz/Hommies Plugin - github.com/ayandexyz/hommies… also on marketplace plugins.omarchy.org/plugin.h…

Greyforge is building a foundation here. This is how projects become standards
We rewrote our open-source tools for Linux hosts in Rust, from Python, for speed, efficiency and quality. Startup dropped from ~60 ms to 1-2 ms and memory from ~20 MB to 2-9 MB, with bug fixes along the way. New names, same jobs, same files. One post per tool below.

Er der nogen i mit X-netværk der kan hjælpe mig med at skaffe en MicroTik 400G switch (EU) ? De er umiddelbart udsolgt overalt, men måske du kender distributøren eller ved hvor der ligger en på lager...? Alle leads (eller reposts) sætter jeg meget pris på! 🙏 (Jeg har én i preorder, men kommer først NOV/DEC! - og tålmodighed er ikke min stærkeste dyd ;)) mikrotik.com/product/crs804_…

You don't have to commit your entire life to optimism, just try it on for a week. Start thinking "what if it all worked out?" and "what a time to be alive!". Then compare your state of mind to the week before filled with pessimism and doomer nonsense.

You should be able to use smarter models in your agent. You should be able to use cheaper models in your agent. You should be able to use local models in your agent. You should be able to use a different model for every job. You should be able to switch models in the middle of a conversation. You should be able to choose what data your agent has. You should be able to choose what it remembers and what it forgets. You should be able to choose what computer your agent runs on. You should be able to run it on a machine that never touches the internet. You should be able to run it while your laptop is closed. You should be able to reach it from the apps you already use. You should be able to choose how your agent thinks. You should be able to read the prompt it runs on. You should be able to see every tool it has, and turn off the ones you don't want. You should be able to teach it something once and never explain it again. You should be able to know what it did, and when, and why. You should be able to export your agent. You should be able to read the code. You should be able to change the code. Your agent should be yours.
