Happy news to us that GNU Image Manipulation Program now almost reaches version 3.0. This long time favorite application of us, also known as GIMP, is in rapid development stages and the Release Candidate or RC versions are already available for us to download and test (and report bug if we found any issue). As a part of the happy news, now GIMP 3.0 is officially available also as AppImage! For that reason, we can try it out as quickly as downloading and double-clicking it without removing the existing version installed. While we're all waiting for GIMP 3.0 RC to finally reach 3.0 stable, now let's start trying it out!
The OpenWrt One/AP-24.XY is a router board based on the MediaTek MT7981B (Filogic 820) SoC, combined with the MediaTek MT7976C dual-band Wi-Fi 6 chipset. Developed in collaboration with Banana Pi, the OpenWrt One is the first official hardware platform supported by the OpenWrt open-source community, designed for OpenWrt learning, IoT applications, and general networking use cases such as routing, NAS, and wireless communication.
OpenMV has introduced the Prophesee GenX320 camera module, bringing event-based vision sensing to its embedded platform. Unlike traditional image sensors that capture entire frames at fixed intervals, the GenX320 detects only changes in a scene, reducing data rates while improving efficiency in motion detection.
Radxa has introduced a Mini-ITX single-board computer designed for both consumer and industrial applications. Built around the Rockchip RK3588(J) processor, this SBC provides a broad set of interfaces, high-speed connectivity, and advanced multimedia capabilities.
The Vaaman is a reconfigurable edge computing platform, first seen in 2023. The CrowdSupply campaign has finally launched, offering a system that combines the flexibility of an FPGA with the processing power of a six-core ARM processor.

The beta version of GNOME 48 is here with Adwaita fonts, a new default wallpaper, improved screen time limit support, a new GNOME Display Control (gdctl) utility, support for configuring HDR via the DisplayConfig D-Bus API, support for updating cursors via the frame clock in virtual monitors, and the ability to track screen time history with no limit set.
Coming almost a month after GNOME 47.3, the GNOME 47.4 release is here to speed up batch file deletions and simple recursive search through mount monitors in the Nautilus (Files) file manager, and support synchronization of the enabled state for devices when adding a new device in the input-mapper of Mutter.
Until this change, openSUSE Tumbleweed shipped with AppArmor, a security module in the Linux kernel that allows system administrators to restrict the capabilities of programs with per-program profiles.
Activity Monitor displays a variety of resources in use on a system in real time. These include processes, disk activity, memory usage, and more to provide a sort of dashboard.
Activity Monitor is proprietary software and not available for Linux. We recommend the best free and open source alternatives.
