unprecedented primarily in the sense that the "market share" of GNU/Linux on desktops and laptops surged when Microsoft was busy laying off tens of thousands of workers (while paying to media to distract from all that with puff pieces about mostly useless chatbots). The_layoffs_were_a_lot_more_massive_than_the_media_cared_to acknowledge. Even GitHub had several big rounds of layoffs and a main office was permanently shut down. Microsoft has_already_moved_to_the_"extinguish" phase_in_GitHub. Among the other big news/developments for this year: 1. The media is trying to convince us that Wayland is ready (even if for many users it is not) 2. The systemd project is unable to hide its connections to Microsoft anymore (a fish rots from the head down) 3. More evidence became available that UEFI 'secure' boot has nothing to do with security; it's more about cementing Windows monopoly 4. IBM crushed RHEL clones some more; but the cloners found workarounds, arguably proving that IBM's efforts are futile if not self-harming 5. Linux became more Rust-afflicted, for better or for worse 6. Several GNU/Linux-orinteed news sites shut down or stopped covering this topic 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Thank_You_on_a_Vintage_Typewriter⦈_Does that sound like we focus on the negatives? Well, at least we're not mindless cheerleaders. We self-evaluate, too. The new (next) year is now just 19 days away. We're seeking_help_with_server bills, hoping that readers can help us serve readers in the coming year (when we finally turn 20). Suffice to say, we thank you in advance. █ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿

Emacs maintainers accepted a heavy-handed, harmful change, disregarding concerns voiced by multiple users and developers. I’ve created a fixed, and improved, Emacs fork. I’ll be using and developing this fork, and you’re welcome to join. Let’s take a step back. What is the Emacs master branch? That’s essentially the development version of Emacs, and what will soon become Emacs version 30. Many Emacs hackers and enthusiasts track the master branch to enjoy all of the latest developments and improvements. Thanks to the tireless work of the Emacs maintainers in scrutinizing incoming patches, the Emacs master branch has been very stable in recent years. But a few weeks ago, Emacs master users got a very unpleasant surprise. * ⚓ Idiomdrottning ☛ Why_Emacs⠀⇛ Emacs is a similar environment, although its functions can compose in even more ways. Not only that, the ways they can compose is itself extensible, so over the years people have invented “hooks” and “advice” and “macros” and more. It’s a mess is what it is, but it’s a very flexible mess. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 413 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/12/12/Banana_Pi_BPI_M4_Zero_Allwinner_H618_SBC_follows_Raspberry_Pi_Z.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/12/12/Banana_Pi_BPI_M4_Zero_Allwinner_H618_SBC_follows_Raspberry_Pi_Z.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Banana Pi BPI-M4 Zero Allwinner H618 SBC follows Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W form factor⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Dec 12, 2023 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Banana_Pi_BPI-M4_Zero⦈_ Banana Pi says they will provide a Ubuntu Desktop image for the board but have yet to provide a link in the board’s wiki. It may not matter that much because besides being an alternative to the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W (unless you want to use a MIPI CSI camera), it’s also a close carbon copy of the Orange Pi Zero 2W with the only difference between the 8GB eMMC flash used instead of a 16MB SPI flash, and the Orange Pi board have memory options from 512MB to 4GB. Nevertheless, that means that software for the Orange Pi board (Debian, Ubuntu, Android TV) should also work on the Banana Pi Board with minimal to no modifications.

It seems like a_real thing, even on desktops and laptops. Set aside for a moment servers, supercomputers, mobile and so on... This_month's_data_from_statCounter (can be downloaded from this_page) shows further gains, with worldwide estimate of usage at nearly 4% and even higher than we saw earlier this month. W3Schools' log-files since 2003 show_GNU/Linux_growing_from_2.2%_to_4.0%. At Wikipedia, which has its shortcomings , they say: "For desktop and laptop computers, Microsoft's Windows is the most used at 69%, followed by Apple's macOS at 21%, and Google's ChromeOS at 3.7% (in the US up to 7.9% ), and desktop Linux at 3.2%, so on traditional PCs Linux sums up to 7% share (ChromeOS is a different OS, but regular Linux can be added to it)." So we're seeing something around 7% for GNU/Linux+ChromeOS verified across domains, including busy online hubs. One year ago GNU/Linux+ChromeOS were under 5% based on statCounter's numbers, which are claimed to be derived from 3 million sites' logs. █ ⣶⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣶⣶⣶⣶⡶⣶⣶⣶⣶⡶⢶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⡶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣷⣤⣴⣶⣿⣿⣿⣏⠀⢼⡄⣤⡧⠄⠈⡄⢠⡏⢠⣤⡏⣤⡌⠃⢸⡇⢸⠀⡄⢸⠀⣤⠋⠀⣘⠇⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠿⠿⠋⠀⠉⠙⣿⣿⣿⣧⣭⣼⣧⣤⣧⣤⣤⣧⣬⣵⣬⣥⣧⣬⣤⣷⣬⣤⣼⣤⣧⣼⣦⣥⣧⣬⣥⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿ ⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣷⣦⣀⡀⠀⠀⣀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠻⢿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⢡⣍⣉⣍⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠻⠿⠿⠛⠿⠟⡛⠹⠟⣛⣛⠻⢛⣥⣶⣾⣿⣿⣶⣶⣷⣶⣶⣦⣬⣭⣤⣤⣭⠭⠭⠍⠙⠩⠭⠩⠴⠾⠿⠿⠿⠿⠸⢿ ⠛⠻⠿⠛⠻⠿⠟⢛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣉⣛⣋⣩⣭⣍⣛⣋⣩⣉⣉⣩⣭⣭⢴⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⣄⡉⢿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⣿⣿⢿⠟⠩⠉⠽⠽⠯⠯⠩⠉⢏⠛⠻⠿⠿⢿ ⣿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠛⠉⠛⠋⠥⠴⠦⠙⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠛⠿⠟⠛⠰⠿⠿⠘⠡⠶⠌⠛⠛⠿⠿⠿⠟⠛⠃⠘⠛⠩⠐⠃⠉⠁⠆⠙⣉⣉⣐⣪⣭⣥⣴⢿⢿⣿⣟⣁⢸⣿ ⡀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡤⣀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡤⡀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡤⠠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡄⣠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡄⢠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣄⢠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⠄⢠⣤⣤⣄⣤⣤⣤⣤⡶⣶⣶⣾⣻⢟⢿⣭⣭⣥⣤⣤⢄⢠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣾⣿ ⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢅⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣅⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣄⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣈⣾⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣬⣯⣿⣿⣷⣾⡟⣻⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⡧⣠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢯⣠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢯⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣅⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣅⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣅⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣅⣿⣿⣽⡿⣿⣿⣟⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣥⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣡⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⡛⠛⠛⠛⣿⣿⠛⡟⠛⡟⣿⣟⠟⡟⢛⠛⠛⠛⠛⣿⡟⢻⠻⠛⠙⣿⣟⠖⡟⠛⠛⠛⠛⠻⠻⣿⡟⢟⠛⠛⣿⣟⣛⡟⠛⡛⢛⠛⠛⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 738 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/12/12/How_to_Support_Tux_Machines_and_Techrights_for_Next_Year.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/12/12/How_to_Support_Tux_Machines_and_Techrights_for_Next_Year.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ How to Support Tux Machines and Techrights for Next Year⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Dec 12, 2023 Financially fortifying the sites means they can become more active 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Namaste:_Indian_'Thank_you'⦈_ THE peak season of winter (for the northern hemisphere) means holidays are due, not limited to Christmas, and the shortest day of the year (for the north) is just 9 days away. It's apparently the perfect timing for appeals - a time for giving and, unfortunately, billing. A couple of weeks ago we learned that our VPS host had decided to raise the cost by almost 25%, starting next month. But this month we can still get the old fare for the coming 12 months. It's not cheap. We've just been invoiced for over 1000 pounds for 2 Web sites, 2 Gemini capsules, IRC, and Git... (there are a few other services, but they're not as critical) Thankfully we managed to consolidate them all into a single host and lower the RAM and CPU usage by going 100% static. Running the sites isn't cheap and I always (since 2006) ran my sites at my own expense, i.e. paid by the salary I earned in my daytime/nighttime job. Just over a year ago both my wife and I resigned to better focus on our sites. This obviously had an impact on our ability to cover site-related costs. We are perfectly aware of the perils of crowdfunding online (banks censor sometimes, but one has more legal protections when that happens). We've heard many stories like British banks censoring/banning political parties, Russian media accounts (years before the Ukraine invasion), and so on and so forth... Then there are the perils inherent in all online payment processors, not only Paypal (some people recognise it as a notorious and censorious payment processor, with the same restrictions applying in some crowdfunding sites that get pressured into political censorship). We've looked into about half a dozen options and reached the conclusion that those who can and are willing to help us with site (or Gemini, Git, IRC etc.) bills would be best off doing so via Paypal. It's not that we endorse Paypal or even tolerate its hostility towards Free software (there are well documented scandals and blunders to that effect). Any donations (chipping in to help cover our hosting bills) is entirely voluntary. We have no plans of adding any ads or paywalls. We don't let people pay us conditionally, e.g. upon us changing our editorial standards or our focus. If you benefited from the sites, please consider helping them. Tux Machines is almost 20 and Techrights turned 17 last month. We've run them at cost to ourselves, not just the 'cost' of time but the cost of actual money. It wasn't cheap. If you want to donate to us, follow_this_page and we thank you in advance. █ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠈⠙⠀⠇⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⠃⠀⣼⠃⠉⢹⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠛⠻⠁⠀⠀⠀⠂⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣿⡇⣰⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣿⣿⡿⠟⢻⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⡅⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⣸⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠉⠢⠈⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⢿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⢸⣯⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠻⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⢄⠀⠀⠀⣸⡏⡇⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠙⠿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⢠⠂⣿⣧⣧⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠠⠀⢀⠀⢹⢿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠂⠀⣾⣷⣾⣾⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠇⠀⠀⣿⠑⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣏⠉⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣾⡏⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠈⢆⠈⢿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠸⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⢀⣴⣿⣿⡿⠙⢿⣿⡟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢘⢿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⡇⠀⠸⣿⡿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⡶⠃⣸⡇⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⠊⣿⠁⠀⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⢀⡤⠀⠀⠀⣀⣴⢷⠃⠀⡟⠀⠀⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡴⠋⡴⠂⠐⡜⣾⡏⡈⠀⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢀⣾⠁⠌⢸⢰⡇⠀⡃⠀⠀⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣼⡏⢰⠀⠀⣸⠇⠀⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⠀⠀⢻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣼⠀⠀⢸⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡄⠘⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣄⡀⠀⠀⣀⣤⣶⣾⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠟⢛⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣩⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 849 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/12/12/In_Nigeria_Africa_s_Largest_Population_by_Far_Windows_May_Soon_.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/12/12/In_Nigeria_Africa_s_Largest_Population_by_Far_Windows_May_Soon_.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ In Nigeria, Africa's Largest Population (by Far), Windows May Soon Fall to Just 5% Market Share⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Dec 12, 2023 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Nigeria_Flag_Idea_Design⦈_ THE world is changing.

This version also brings back audio stem export support, which allows to render audio tracks as separate files. In case you are wondering why there is no 23.12 major release this month, the KDE community is gearing up for a mega release which will upgrade our software stack to Qt6 and KF6 frameworks. Although these are mostly under the hood changes, it means having a more modern and stable interface with improved Wayland support for Linux users. This transition paves the way for the upcoming performance enhancements effort, such as the integration of GPU effects.

It impacts a project with millions of users. It's one of the first projects under the GNU umbrella, going back more than 40 years (the version number, Emacs 30, is quite telling of the age). "The Emacs master branch is broken—for good," says_this_new_post. It goes on, explaining that "Emacs maintainers accepted a heavy-handed, harmful change, disregarding concerns voiced by multiple users and developers. I’ve created a fixed, and improved, Emacs fork. I’ll be using and developing this fork, and you’re welcome to join." So maybe all the CoCs which have been poked into projects are leaving traces, an associate has argued, for the gestation period has been long enough. So there may be a split coming up: I crafted and posted a couple of patches that add some bells and whistles from Thierry’s patch in an optional and compatible manner. It’s really not that hard to make no harm in this case. But my work was disregarded just as well, sadly. Thierry didn’t like how I reverted his change to use the minibuffer for reading a single key, which is exactly the root cause of the problems I tried to fix—and in fact I did fix it, just not in Emacs master, but in my new fork. Since then, another bug report came in from an Emacs master branch user that suffered from one of the consequences of this change (a specific regression that I spelled out days before, but was ignored, for some reason), and several users reached out to the Emacs development in request to restore the previous behavior in an ongoing thread titled “Please, Restore Previous Behavior for jump-to- register”. Astonishingly, the maintainers seem insistent not to budge, and Emacs 30 will thus likely suck. I find the willingness of the Emacs maintainers to entertain this bad behavior at the expense of user experience unacceptable. To me, this demonstrates disrespect for Emacs user preferences, and indeed their freedom. Personally, this freedom is the number one reason for using Emacs, so I obviously won’t use an Emacs that forces on me weird breaking changes. For that reason I’ve created a new Emacs branch, the “main” branch, which was born from the master branch before this registers fiasco. If these changes will be reverted before Emacs 30, I’ll surely consider switching back to building Emacs from the upstream master branch. But in the meantime, and for the foreseeable future, I’ll be keeping my main branch up to date by cherry picking (only) good changes from the master branch. And of course, I also improve it with developments of my own. Notice the part about "the “main” branch". It is not merely a name change. █ ⢘⣛⣛⣛⢘⣛⢘⡋⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣿⡇⣿⡿⣿⠿⠿⠰⠶⢶⡶⣶⣦⣶⡆⣾⢸⣿⡅⣭⣭⡭⣭⣽⣹⣿⢸⣿⣙⡃⣛⡋⢘⣛⢛⣿⣛⣿⢸⣿⡟⣿⢸⣿⠿⣿⢸⣿⢸⣿⢸⣿⣚⣛⣛⣛⣽⣽⣾⣛⡃⣛ ⣚⣛⣛⣻⣚⣿⢘⣗⣿⣟⣻⡟⣿⡟⣛⣛⣛⣓⣛⣛⣛⡃⣟⢸⣿⢺⠷⠷⠶⠺⡇⣭⢨⣙⠇⠿⢼⣥⣭⣭⢩⡍⢨⣽⣹⣇⣿⡇⢸⣿⣺⣿⣛⣛⢘⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⡛⣛⢘⣛⣚⣻⢸⣿⣟⣿⣹⣭⣭⣭⠿⠟⣟⣛ ⡋⣿⣯⣿⣭⣿⢨⣯⣽⣯⣽⡇⣿⡇⣿⣽⣿⣛⣟⣋⣛⣃⣛⢘⣛⢺⡟⣿⣿⢸⡷⠿⠸⣿⠧⣿⢸⣿⢲⣶⢴⣦⠈⠿⢭⠭⠝⡁⢈⡙⠹⠿⠋⢁⣘⣛⣘⣛⣛⣛⡃⣛⢘⣛⡛⣛⢘⣛⡃⣛⣛⣋⣿⣿⣿⣛⣛⣛ ⡃⣿⣟⣟⣛⣛⢘⣛⢚⣛⣛⡃⣛⡃⣛⣛⣛⢘⣛⡃⣛⣛⣛⣘⡟⣻⡟⣿⡿⠸⠿⠿⢸⢿⢟⣿⢸⡿⢸⣶⢲⠆⠀⠐⠰⠶⠚⠁⠨⠍⠙⠉⠀⠈⠭⠭⢭⣭⠍⢭⡅⣭⢨⣭⡅⣭⢬⣭⡅⣿⡽⠷⢶⡾⠿⢻⣿⣻ ⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣾⣿⣽⣷⣿⡗⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣿⣇⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣸⡇⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⢸⣷⣤⡙⠁⢊⣰⣧⠈⠉⠠⠆⠨⠭⠉⠀⢸⡗⣬⠅⢉⣠⣶⣿⣇⣿⣸⣿⣧⣿⢸⣿⡇⣿⣾⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣷⣿⣿⣿⡟⣿⣷⣿⢻⣿⡿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣻⡟⣿⡿⣿⣿⡿⢿⢻⣿⣻⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠀⣀⠙⡃⣤⠐⠶⠃⢿⡶⠀⢀⡀⠅⢁⢰⠸⣿⢳⣿⣿⡟⣿⡟⣾⣿⣾⣿⠹⣿⣿⡿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⢻ ⡋⣛⣛⣛⡃⣿⢘⣟⢸⣿⣙⡟⣛⣛⣛⣛⣻⣿⢹⠿⠿⠷⠿⠇⠿⠏⠰⠤⠈⠡⠠⠤⠈⠓⠿⠿⠸⠿⠐⡚⠚⠛⠴⣀⠩⣄⠘⡃⢀⠀⣤⠘⢁⣤⢨⣬⡁⣬⣭⣭⢩⠅⣩⡅⣤⣄⠘⣅⣰⢘⣿⡇⣿⣚⣛⣛⣛⣘ ⡅⣭⣭⣿⡅⣿⣼⣯⣽⣟⣛⡃⣛⣛⣛⣛⣻⡟⣿⣿⢄⠀⣬⠅⠭⠭⢠⣽⢠⡤⣼⣿⢰⣷⣨⣝⣹⣧⣨⣿⣿⣷⠄⠈⠰⠾⢦⡇⣾⣤⣥⢰⡶⣶⢰⡶⠂⠶⢖⣢⢴⡆⣶⡆⠶⠤⢴⡆⣤⢤⣤⡄⣄⣀⣿⣼⣯⣽ ⣧⣿⣯⣯⡅⣽⣝⣛⣛⢿⣩⣇⣛⡛⣛⣛⣻⣟⡻⣋⢹⡖⣶⡄⠀⢠⣶⣶⣌⠙⢶⣶⠀⢠⣶⣶⣶⣄⢰⣆⠀⢰⣾⣆⠀⢿⣷⣶⢀⣶⣾⣿⡿⠉⢿⣿⣶⣿⣶⡄⠀⣶⣿⣦⡉⢻⣿⡄⠀⣾⣿⡇⠦⠀⠷⠶⣶⢶ ⡷⣿⡷⣿⣶⣶⡆⣧⣿⣿⢲⣶⣾⡇⣭⣭⣽⣿⢹⣟⠛⠋⢿⡇⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⣿⠀⢸⣿⣿⢿⣿⣾⣿⡄⠘⣿⣿⡀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢳⡄⠘⡿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⡇⢀⣿⡇⠀⣿⣿⠿⣿⠇⠿⠇⠿⢿ ⠏⢿⡷⣿⣷⣶⡆⣶⣶⣿⢸⣿⢽⡇⣿⣿⢽⣯⣌⡭⢤⠄⣸⡇⠀⣺⣿⣿⠋⢠⣾⣿⠀⢸⣿⣍⢸⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⢹⣷⣧⠀⢻⢿⣿⠍⣭⢍⣛⡷⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⣿⣿⡍⠲⣿⣿⡇⠀⣿⣯⠀⠿⠿⠿⠇⠿⠿ ⣳⣿⣷⣿⣷⣶⣶⣇⣿⣿⢼⣿⣾⡇⣿⣿⣾⣷⣾⡗⣶⠶⢿⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣷⡄⠙⣿⠀⢸⣿⡿⣾⣿⢿⣿⣿⡆⠈⣼⣿⡄⠘⣿⣿⣶⡾⣾⣿⣿⣦⠀⢻⣿⣿⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⡄⠸⣿⡇⠀⣿⣿⣷⣿⡏⣿⣇⣿⣿ ⡿⣿⢷⡟⣿⡟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣼⡟⣿⣷⣿⣿⣾⢷⡿⣷⢱⣆⣼⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⢙⣀⣘⣿⣿⡟⠋⢸⣿⣿⣿⡀⣿⣿⣷⡀⠹⣿⣟⡁⣻⣿⣿⣿⣀⣈⣛⣿⣃⢀⣻⣿⣿⣷⡀⠹⣃⣀⣻⡿⠿⠛⠀⢿⣿⣷⣿ ⠧⠿⠸⠇⢿⡧⣿⣾⣿⣷⣿⢻⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣸⡇⣿⡸⡿⠭⠤⢠⡬⣭⣿⣿⡏⠀⣼⣿⣿⡿⢽⣿⣿⣸⣿⣿⣿⠃⣿⣿⣿⣳⣄⠙⠿⣇⣿⢹⣿⣿⣿⣸⣿⣾⣯⢨⡿⢿⡏⠿⠧⠀⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠷⠼⠿⠿⠿ ⢸⣿⢸⣇⣟⣓⣛⣛⣛⡓⣛⢸⣿⢸⡷⠶⠶⠶⠆⠶⠶⢽⡃⠿⢸⡇⠿⠶⢂⡀⢰⣾⣶⠃⣦⠌⢸⣿⣇⣿⡅⣿⢤⣿⡇⣿⣼⣿⣦⣶⣴⣶⢰⡶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣬⣍⣁⣂⣛⣂⡈⠏⣿⣀⡀⡃⣯⣿⣿⣹⣿ ⣽⣿⣼⣭⣭⡭⣭⡍⣽⡇⣿⢘⣛⢘⣛⣻⣿⠻⠇⢿⢹⣿⡇⠷⠰⠶⢶⣶⣶⡆⢰⡖⢲⣆⣿⣷⢸⣿⢭⠭⠁⠉⠈⠩⠅⣭⣭⡙⠍⠟⠀⡭⠈⠁⠀⠀⡀⣀⠀⣷⣴⣮⡭⠉⢩⣽⡇⣿⡦⣍⠩⣶⡇⣿⢹⣿⢼⣿ ⣿⣿⣼⣧⣿⡇⣭⣥⣭⣅⣭⢨⣭⢸⣿⣿⣿⢘⣓⣛⢰⣮⡅⣿⢘⣛⠚⠻⠶⠆⢸⣶⢶⣶⢶⣿⠸⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⣴⡇⣿⣶⣶⠞⢀⣴⣤⣄⠈⠁⣭⡅⡇⠀⣿⡇⣿⢸⣿⢸⣿ ⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣦⣶⡇⣿⣯⣽⢸⣭⢨⣭⣽⣿⣼⣯⣹⢸⣟⣓⣛⣚⣛⠀⠘⣻⣧⢸⣿⠿⣿⠸⠥⠰⠶⠀⠠⠆⣶⢸⣶⢰⣶⡆⣤⡀⠀⠀⣴⡇⣿⢼⣿⡧⢿⠧⠇⢤⣶⣮⣭⣿⣤⡄⢶⡆⣶⡆⣶⡆⣶⣴⣶⢰⣶ ⣿⡇⣿⣷⣿⣸⣿⡇⣿⡏⣽⢨⡭⣬⣭⣭⣽⢹⣟⣻⣺⣻⣭⣭⣭⣭⠀⠀⣭⣭⢹⣿⢹⣿⢸⣿⣘⣿⢸⣛⣓⣛⣚⣛⣚⣛⡂⣛⡂⣲⣀⣿⣗⣻⣚⣛⣓⣛⣛⣛⣻⣟⣿⣩⣭⢨⣭⣬⣥⣭⡅⣽⣥⣿⣼⣿⣼⣿ ⣻⣧⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣧⣿⣾⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣼⣇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⡺⠀⠹⠿⠸⠿⠼⢿⣼⣿⡯⣿⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣿⣿⣇⣿⣇⢿⣻⣿⣧⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣸⣿⣿⣏⣿⡇⣿⣼⣿⣾⣿⣷⣿ ⣿⢹⣿⣾⡇⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⡟⠟⠉⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠲⢶⣯⣥⣛⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⡇⣿⣿⢹⣏⣿⣿⣿⢻⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⢹⣏⣿⣿⣿⡟⣾⡇⣿⢹ ⣿⢸⣟⣻⡃⣯⡭⣭⢩⣿⣹⣿⣟⣛⡋⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⡗⠈⠃⣛⣛⣿⣻⣯⣽⣏⣭⢨⡅⣿⣿⢸⣭⣿⡧⣭⢨⣭⢬⣭⡍⣭⣥⣭⣭⣭⢨⣍⣽⣯⣿⣇⣿⣟⣿⢸ ⣭⢨⣭⣭⣭⣿⣣⣌⢘⣛⣛⣛⡛⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠈⠏⣿⢻⣿⣿⠆⠶⠰⠆⠿⠿⠸⠟⣿⡷⠿⢸⡿⠾⠿⠷⠿⠷⠷⠶⢶⢰⣶⢶⣶⣾⣧⣿⣭⣿⢨ ⣭⢸⣟⢛⣛⠿⡇⠀⢸⣛⢛⠻⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⢸⣷⣿⡇⣿⢸⣧⣿⣿⢿⡇⠿⠿⠿⠸⠿⠿⠿⠹⠿⠿⡿⢿⣿⢸⣿⢶⣶⢲⣶⣿⡇⣿⢨ ⣿⣬⣭⢨⣭⣷⡶⠀⣶⠇⢨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢸⠿⢷⡖⣶⢸⣷⢿⡿⠼⠷⠿⡿⢿⠾⠿⠿⠿⢸⢿⠿⠿⢿⡿⢾⣿⢾⣿⢸⣷⣶⡆⣶⢰ ⣿⡇⣿⢸⣭⣿⡅⠀⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⣶⣷⣤⣤⡀⡸⠏⠙⠁⣤⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣛⣿⡆⣶⢸⣿⢿⣿⢿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣺⣶⢰⣶⣶⣦⣶⢸ ⣭⣍⣭⢸⣻⣿⢁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠋⠛⠿⣿⣧⠁⠀⠐⠈⠉⠙⠢⢤⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⡅⣭⣨⣿⢸⣿⢸⣷⣾⡇⣷⣶⣶⡶⣶⢰⣶⢰⣶⣶⣷⣶⣶⢲⣶⢰⣶⣿⢰⣿⢨ ⣿⣿⣿⣸⣿⣿⡁⠀⠀⠀⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⠀⢀⡴⠷⣤⣄⠀⠀⠀⠉⠙⠛⠛⠉⠉⠙⠿⢿⠿⡷⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣇⣿⣿⣿⣸⣿⢻⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣾⣿⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣼ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⢀⠀⠀⠛⢷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠊⠙⠛⠃⠥⢾⣾⣴⣄⢀⢀⠀⠀⠀⡌⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠛⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⢻⣿⣿⣇⣷⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠛⠿⡿⡍⠀⢸⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠛⠿⠾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣻⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⡟⣿⣧ ⣿⣯⣭⡍⣭⣭⣭⢨⡌⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠯⠀⠀⠒⠋⠟⠖⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢉⠁⠉⠂⠀⠹⣿⠁⠀⠙⠻⢿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣩⢭⣯⣼⣶⡶⣦⣾⣺ ⣭⣭⣿⡇⣿⣟⣿⢘⣓⡄⢶⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣐⣒⢐⣂⣒⣂⣀⡀⡑⠜⠆⠦⠬⡖⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠏⠉⢿⣿⣿⣷⣖⣶⣯⣥⣿⣿⣿ ⣭⣯⣿⡇⣟⣛⣛⣘⣛⡃⣊⡛⠁⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣔⣻⣹⣿⣼⣿⣹⣿⣽⠟⢿⣧⣴⣮⣤⣭⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⡅⢰⠀⠘⠟⠛⠛⠿⠾⠿⠛⠁⠀⠈ ⣿⣭⣭⡅⣽⣏⣿⣟⣟⡃⣛⡃⣷⣀⠈⠭⠗⠀⠲⢤⣄⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣤⣾⣿⣿⣼⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣤⡶⠖⢿⠟⣻⢿⣿⣶⡞⠀⠀⠐⢂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠑⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣯⣭⣭⡅⣭⣯⣿⡏⣿⡇⣿⣃⣛⣛⣛⣃⣋⠀⠈⠸⢿⣿⣿⣿⣦⡀⠀⢠⣤⡔⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⠿⠿⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠉⠉⠙⠀⠀⠀⢉⣹⡿⠛⠻⠆⠀⠀⠌⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⡆⣄⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣶⣶⣶⡆⣶⡆⣾⡇⣿⣧⣿⡇⣿⣯⣽⣭⣿⢩⣭⣤⣠⣀⠛⠿⠿⠗⠀⣿⣿⣿⣯⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⠀⠤⠄⠐⢒⣂⣀⡂⣉⠭⠷⠦⠤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⢠⣷⣿⢷⣷⡆⣶⣶⣾⣧⡏⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣳⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣧⣿⣇⣿⣿⣿⣼⣿⣿⣹⣿⣼⣧⣶⣄⣄⣈⠙⠙⠛⠃⠠⠤⠤⠖⠂⠀⠀⠀⠒⠒⠉⣁⢀⣀⣀⣁⣠⣤⣤⣤⣴⣴⣶⣴⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣼⣧⣿⣿⣿⣧⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣠⡄⠀⠀ ⢸⣿⣿⣿⣹⣿⣿⡟⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⡇⣿⡿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣹⣯⣿⣿⣹⡇⣿⢸⣶⡖⣷⣴⡶⣶⣿⢹⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢹⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⢹⣿⢸⣿⢸⣿⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⣷⣿ ⠸⠿⠷⠷⠾⠿⠸⠧⠿⠇⠿⠿⠸⠿⠬⠥⣭⡥⣭⣭⣭⢨⣭⢨⣭⣭⣍⣭⡇⣽⡇⣿⢨⣿⡇⣭⣭⡅⣭⣽⣹⣿⢻⣿⣛⡃⣛⣛⣛⣛⣃⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⢚⣛⣛⣛⢙⣿⢸⣿⢸⣿⢸⣿⣹⣭⣭⣭⣿⣥⡇⡿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1106 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/12/12/Microsoft_Under_Antitrust_Investigation_Again.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/12/12/Microsoft_Under_Antitrust_Investigation_Again.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Microsoft Under Antitrust Investigation Again⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Dec 12, 2023 * ⚓ The Register UK ☛ FTC_wants_Microsoft's_relationship_with_OpenAI_under the_microscope⠀⇛ Microsoft has invested upwards of $10 billion in OpenAI to fund the computing power needed to train AI models.

This methodology was first described in a 1970 paper by Dr. Winston Royce. This paper didn't call it waterfall, nor did it endorse the technique, and the paper contains a lot of good insights and raises some interesting questions. Let's take a look at some of those. * ⚓ MaskRay ☛ Clang_-Wunused-command-line-argument⠀⇛ clangDriver is the library implementing the compiler driver for Clang.

A couple of clever elves worked with Santa to find a place to host their new application, another small group started working on the UI, a couple of grumpy older elves took up the job of testing, and Otto found himself leading a team to design the database schema, and give the UI team the tools they needed to access it. o ⚓ Perl ☛ Perl_Advent_Calendar_2023:_My_Top_7_Perl_New_Features⠀⇛ For each version of Perl, I update my book Perl New Features. Perl v5.10 has a big change in perl development where we started to get new syntax instead of making old syntax adapt to the new world (like making things Unicode). There are so many features that I could choose from, but I looked back at those I've been using for the past year, and which ones I'd fight for in a code review. These aren't the most clever or groundbreaking features, but they are the ones that I'm consistently using. o ⚓ Rakulang ☛ Day_11_–_Networks_Roasting_on_an_Open_Fire,_Part_2: Axes_to_Grind⠀⇛ This is over-minimalist; a user couldn’t even tell the scale of the latency measurements.

Called the HAT+, it represents a major step forward with some significant changes. Most visible will be changes to the mechanical specification, for while the original HAT specification was very rigid this new version is much looser. A HAT+ must only mate with the 40-pin connector, including the ID pins, and line up with only a single mounting hole compared to the four on the original. Electrically, a HAT+ must recognise the standby power state in which the 3.3- volt line is powered down while the 5-volt line remains active, while software- wise, there are changes to the content of the ID EEPROM including the ability to inform about stackable smaller HATs. As the Arduino folks will no doubt tell you, the danger for the maintainers of a popular standard is that it risks becoming a victim of its own success, leaving it to ossify as it falls behind the cutting edge. For the Raspberry Pi, it must be a tight balance between keeping it up to date and not losing earlier models, and by our reckoning, they may just have achieved it.

These states have been some of the most aggressive privacy and data security regulators in the past, making these MOUs especially noteworthy. In addition, the announcement indicates that the FCC intends to rely on authority under Sections 201 and 222 of the Communications Act to increase its investigation and enforcement activity concerning privacy, data protection, and cybersecurity issues. Section 222 generally requires carriers and VoIP providers to protect their customer proprietary network information (“CPNI”), such as service-related billing information. Under the current rules implementing Section 222, carriers and VoIP providers must notify customers, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the U.S. Secret Service of data breaches that may have exposed CPNI. The FCC also has the authority to investigate breaches involving intentional unauthorized access to, use, or disclosure of CPNI. * ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ North_Korean_hacking_ops_continue_to_exploit Log4Shell [Ed: It was patched ages ago; this helps distract from many ongoing Microsoft breaches]⠀⇛ Two years after the Log4j vulnerability was revealed, North Korean hackers are continuing to use the flaw in a ubiquitous piece of open source software to carry out attacks as part of a hacking campaign targeting manufacturing, agricultural and physical security entities, according to research released Monday. Carried out over the course of 2023 and described in a report released by Cisco’s Talos Intelligence Group on Monday, the campaign employed at least three new malware families and relied, in part, on the Log4Shell exploit, highlighting the long tail of the Log4j vulnerability and how failure to patch the flaw is providing a ready tool to malicious hackers. * ⚓ Data Breaches ☛ Multiple_Ohio_schools_receive_threats,_believed_to_be Russian_hackers,_saying_bombs_are_in_schools⠀⇛ So what’s the purpose of these threats?

How should you compute the bins? It would be nice to have microsecond accuracy on the small end, but if you bin by microsecond you could end up having millions of bins, which is not what you want. On the other end you might have multi-second GC pauses, and you definitely want to be able to record those values. Consider, though, that it’s not so important to have microsecond precision for a 2-second pause. This points in a direction of wanting bins that are relatively close to each other, but whose absolute separation can vary depending on whether we are measuring microseconds or milliseconds. You want approximately uniform precision over a high dynamic range. § logarithmic binning⠀➾ The basic observation is that you should be able to make a histogram that gives you, say, 3 significant figures on measured values. Such a histogram would count anything between 1230 and 1240 in the same bin, and similarly for 12300 and 12400. The gap between bins increases as the number of digits grows. Of course computers prefer base-2 numbers over base-10, so let’s do that. Say we are measuring nanoseconds, and the maximum number of seconds we expect is 100 or so. There are about 230 nanoseconds in a second, and 100 is a little less than 27, so that gives us a range of 37 bits. Let’s say we want a precision of 4 significant base-2 digits, or 4 bits; then we will have one set of 24 bins for 10-bit values, another for 11- bit values, and so-on, for a total of 37 × 24 bins, or 592 bins. If we use a 32-bit integer count per bin, such a histogram would be 2.5kB or so, which I think is acceptable. Say you go to compute the bin for a value. Firstly, note that there are some values that do not have 4 significant bits: if you record a measurement of 1 nanosecond, presumably that is just 1 significant figure. These are like the denormals in floating-point numbers. Let’s just say that recording a value val in [0, 24-1] goes to bin val. If val is 24 or more, then we compute the major and minor components. The major component is the number of bits needed to represent val, minus the 4 precision bits. * ⚓ Freexian_Collaborators:_Debian_Contributions:_Python_3.12_preparations, debian-printing,_merged-/usr_tranisition_updates,_and_more!_(by_Utkarsh Gupta)⠀⇛ Stefano uploaded a few packages in preparation for Python 3.12, including pycxx and cython. Cython has a major new version (Cython 3), adding support for 3.12, but also bringing changes that many packages in Debian aren’t ready to build with, yet. Stefano uploaded it to Debian experimental and did an_archive rebuild_of_affected_packages,_and_some_analysis_of_the_result. Matthias Klose has since filed bugs for all of these issues. This month Thorsten invested some of the previously obtained money to build his own printlab. At the moment it only consists of a dedicated computer with an USB printer attached. Due to its 64GB RAM and an SSD, building of debian-printing packages is much faster now. Over time other printers will be added and understanding bugs should be a lot easier now. Also Thorsten again adopted two packages, namely mink and ink, and moved them to the debian-printing team. * § IBM⠀➾ o ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ 2023-12-06_[Older]_Red_Hat_Academy_milestone: Empowering_50,000_students_in_2023⠀⇛ o ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ 2023-12-06_[Older]_Secondary_network_overlays for_virtualization_workloads⠀⇛ * § TLS and sign-on systems⠀➾ o ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ 2023-12-09_[Older]_A_possible_path_to reliable_name_constraints_on_internal_TLS_CAs⠀⇛ o ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ 2023-12-08_[Older]_Mapping_out_my understanding_of_(web-based)_single_sign-on_systems⠀⇛ * § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ o ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Raspberry_Pi_releases_PCIe_FFC_connector specifications,_new_HAT+_standard⠀⇛ Raspberry Pi has released two new specifications one for the PCIe FFC connector and related cable and the other for the new Raspberry Pi HAT+ (HAT Plus) standard that’s simpler, takes into account new features in Raspberry Pi 4/5, and has fewer rules around mechanical dimensions. o ⚓ CNX Software ☛ RoomSense_IQ_–_An_ESP32-S3_modular_room_monitor with_mmWave_radar_presence_detection_(Crowdfunding)⠀⇛ RoomSense IQ is a modular room monitor for presence-based home automation based on the ESP32-S3 module with Bluetooth Wi-Fi connectivity. It uses physical presence detection to automate your smart home devices. It comes with multiple sensors that can be used to detect human activity and track ambient light, temperature, and humidity levels. It uses mmWave radar technology to determine when rooms are empty and when they are occupied. * § K Desktop Environment/KDE SC/Qt⠀➾ o ⚓ Scarlett_Gately_Moore:_KDE:_KDE_Snaps_23.08.4,_PIM!_KDE_neon, Debian⠀⇛ This weeks big accomplishment is KDE PIM snaps! I have successfully added akonadi as a service via an akonadi content snap and running it as a service. Kaddressbook is our first PIM snap with this setup and it works flawlessly! It is available in the snap store. I have a pile of MRs awaiting approvals, so keep your eye out for the rest of PIM in the next day. KDE Applications 23.08.4 has been released and available in the snap store. * § Applications⠀➾ o ⚓ Dedoimedo ☛ Sumatra_PDF_-_Speed,_elegance,_efficiency⠀⇛ Less is more.
