The August 2026 release of DietPi v10.6 expands hardware support with new images for the Orange Pi 4 Pro, Orange Pi Zero 3W, and several Odroid boards. The update also improves DietPi-Banner functionality, adds RISC-V support for the Kubo IPFS Node package, and addresses stability and configuration issues across multiple platforms.
Coming two and a half months after Ardour 9.7, the Ardour 9.8 release introduces initial scales support to let you visualize out-of-scale notes and choose if you want to avoid creating them entirely when composing and improvising in a specific musical key, as well as support for the Novation Launchkey 88 Mk4 and Arturia Drumbrute controllers.
Coming two and a half months after OpenSSL 4.0.1, the OpenSSL 4.0.2 release is here to address several important security vulnerabilities, including a heap buffer overflow in CMS key unwrapping (CVE-2026-63072), excessive memory use buffering DTLS records (CVE-2026-54874), and a client-side memory leak in OCSP response checking (CVE-2026-54876).
It was on August 25th, 1991, that the 21-year-old Finnish student Linus Benedict Torvalds made his now-famous announcement on the comp.os.minix newsgroup that he was working on a free operating system for 386 (486) AT clones, just as a “hobby”.
Shelly 3.1 is here to introduce support for building Arch Linux packages through a new shelly build command that’s part of the native package-management library, not a wrapper around makepkg. It writes makepkg-compatible entries and produces archives that pacman and other Arch Linux tools understand.

HE other day I was contacted by Christine from FOSS Force. I thought the matter was worth documenting in public and I carefully checked that no personal information would be divulged in the process, not something embarrassing anyway (if told otherwise, I’d modify accordingly). Regarding FOSS Force ownership, she told me, “I notice that you identify articles on FOSS Force as being on Unicorn Media, which is an identity that hasn’t existed in about 10 years down.”
hese days I use two media players to play my CDs (mostly 1990s albums and collections). One is KDE’s Dragon Player (because it’s based on Qt), the other is VLC. The latter has a lot more functionality but higher RAM footprint. In the past I used even leaner applications to achieve the same functionality. Those are no longer compatible with this setup (a lot changes in 20+ years in this sector).
he music of the past is better and more complex. A year before I was born Lisa Jane Stansfield (from Manchester) won Search for a Star and I still listen to her music in 2026.
ake a look at the tweets below, as recent as hours. I added green highlights.
oday we are one week away from September and I will soon ‘push to live’ the new version of “Today in Techrights” and “Over at Tux Machines…”
he insensitive behaviour of Brett Wilson LLP last year [1, 2, 3] was a self-inflicted wound, as it was not the first time, far from it, but this time it was more blatant and likely intentional (they like to attack people during holidays, they effectively weaponise religion). In this particular case it was a mistake as they know that in this sector being seen as antisemitic is career suicide and, to make matters worse, their biggest client is alleged to be profoundly antisemitic. Freedom fighters don’t massacre dogs and civilians.
oday I published 13 posts here, which probably is an all-time high for this blog or “Weblog” that began in 2004. That’s despite the fact we were out for Rianne’s birthday, so at least the day of this record will be a memorable one (the date).
Personal stuff isolated:
oday we travelled to 3 places (quite distant from one another). One of them had a beach-like feel to it, but Manchester has no beaches, the closest one can get to that are the reservoirs, the boat canal, or the port-like structures in Salford Quays. They’re not too far from central stations, the weather was perfect (blue sky, but not too hot), so we made the most out of it and everything went smoothly for Rianne’s birthday.
wrote to Evri today, early in the morning to be more specific, opening a second ticket after they had made an error by automation. Finally, after a week, I received a reply. Only after opening two tickets and further chasing the first (unhandled) one.
