LetMeOutOfYour.Net is back online. It's an egress testing tool that you can hit via UDP, HTTP, HTTPS, or SSH on any port via IPv6 or IPv4 and you will always get back w00tw00t for verifiable responses.
Zstandard, or zstd as short version, is a fast lossless compression algorithm, targeting real-time compression scenarios at zlib-level and better compression ratios. It's backed by a very fast entropy stage, provided by Huff0 and FSE library.
The project is provided as an open-source dual BSD and GPLv2 licensed C library, and a command line utility producing and decoding .zst, .gz, .xz and .lz4 files. Should your project require another programming language, a list of known ports and bindings is provided on Zstandard homepage.
Gitless is a version control system built on top of Git. Many people complain that Git is hard to use. We think the problem lies deeper than the user interface, in the concepts underlying Git. Gitless is an experiment to see what happens if you put a simple veneer on an app that changes the underlying concepts. Because Gitless is implemented on top of Git (could be considered what Git pros call a "porcelain" of Git), you can always fall back on Git. And of course your coworkers you share a repo with need never know that you're not a Git aficionado.
Are you an IT geek or admin with a taste for irony? Do you have a weird sense of humor? This qualifies you for our card game!
There are two ways to get this game. Either old school, where trees die but the postman's job is preserved (somehow karma balances out here...), or as PDF.
Both are fun. We promise.
cointop is a fast and lightweight interactive terminal based UI application for tracking and monitoring cryptocurrency coin stats in real-time.
The interface is inspired by htop and shortcut keys are inspired by vim.
It's a screencasting system project based on a Pi 3. Nothing very new for such project except that it aims at being very user friendly. Easy setup for users on Windows, Mac and Linux.
User connects to the Promys Device Wifi access point, visits the embedded web page, downloads client application from there and starts it. Almost as easy as ClickShare from BARCO but at a reasonable price (~40€).
It's NOT like a Chromecast device, guests don't have to join hosts wifi network. It's suitable for companies that would like to offer easy screencasting to visitors and employees. It's more similar to Clickshare. I don't see a point using it at home, but, why not?
An already made system image is available on the web site (see below), so it should be very straightforward to setup a Pi3 out of the box and have an up and running system.
For the moment it is very basic but it can be extended with plenty of nifty features. Check out TODO/Ideas section for that and feel free to contribute.
