If you have an email account with Gmail, Yahoo! Mail or Hotmail then you have experience of using a front end of cloud computing. At the back end of the system are the various computers, servers and data storage systems that create the “cloud” of computing services which are hidden from the end user. There is a wide selection of open source cloud management tools that help to automate, monitor, provision, track and tweak your cloud computing infrastructure. Below is a list of 6 open source cloud management tools that have caught our attention. With good reason, these are some of the finest open source tools and libraries available to help integrate and manage cloud instances, and optimize resources. * ⚓ GitButler_-_Git_branch_management_tool_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ GitButler is a Git branch management tool, built from the ground up for modern workflows. This GUI lets you work on multiple branches at the same time. It allows you to quickly organize file changes into separate branches while still having them applied to your working directory. You can then push branches individually to your remote, or directly create pull requests. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ Gibbon_-_school_management_system_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Gibbon is a flexible school management platform designed to make life better for teachers, students, parents and leaders.

The title just goes perfectly, with these long weeks! From Week 3 to Week 7! So, first a small back story on the title. On 25th June, my semester exam ended. I was returning to my hometown, and on my way, I got into a bike accident. My right hand got bruised onto the road. Luckily, it didn’t break. But, the sheer pain was enough to make me cry. It was feeling, as if, someone is constantly burning my hand. I also got injuries in my leg and chest. Went to the doctor, a day after, because I wasn’t able to get up at all! And a complete bed rest for 2 weeks! And guess what, everything good after that? No!!!! My mentor, Scarlett mam, faced a road accident. And this time, she got her arm broken. She had her surgery yesterday. To every readers of this blog, please pray for her speedy recovery. Now, let’s come to the work part. Most of the things done in these weeks are behind the back, and into the backends. Like, improving the metadata of snap listings and expanding the snapd-glib API to include all available links provided by snapd, as well as exposing previously inaccessible URLs via the API for discover. The work on the snap_kcm, which is meant to manage the permissions of Snaps in KDE, has started. The backend already exposes all the connections, a snap has. There are some PRs that are already existing, for everyone to checkout.

Its creator David Heinemeier Hansson (DHH) describes Omakub as turning “a fresh Ubuntu installation into a fully- configured, beautiful, and modern web development system by running a single command.” DHH adds that the name is a portmanteau of “Omakase Ubuntu” (Omakase is a Japanese phrase commonly used in restaurants, meaning ‘I leave it up to you’). A very familiar problem to all software corporations is how to set up their work laptops. Ensuring that every machine that your employees have (whether marketing staff or developers) looks similar, or at least carries the required tools and configurations, is a hard skill. Not being prepared for rapid onboarding can slow down agile projects more than anything else. Behind the “bring your own device” fad was a squirrel’s nest of network protections, policy software, and update emails from a busy IT department. The current CrowdStrike problem is a result of trying to make different machines outwardly safer when connected up.

But this malfunction happened on a Friday night and I was already knee-deep in my project. Ordering a new programmer would have meant putting everything on hold for a couple of days and ruining the whole weekend. Normally, when you want to talk to some hardware via a custom protocol, you might do it using code running on a microcontroller. Only in this case I had a chicken-and-egg problem, because how would I get that code into a microcontroller without a programmer? * ⚓ [Repeat] Andrew Hutchings ☛ Restoration_of_a_special_Amiga_4000 motherboard⠀⇛ Earlier this month was the Kickstart Amiga Expo, and my Amiga business, Retro Supplies, had a stand there. I had pre-planned to take in several Amiga motherboards to repair and recap whilst there, and among them was a special Amiga 4000 motherboard. Special because it belongs to Mike Dailly of DMA Design fame. It also happens to have a really interesting fault. So, I figured I would document it. * ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ OpenAI_reportedly_holding_talks_with_Broadcom_and others_to_develop_new_AI_server_chip⠀⇛ OpenAI is reportedly talking with chip designers, including Broadcom Inc., about developing a new artificial intelligence chip for servers. The Information reported that the initiative is being led by OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman and is part of a larger plan to increase the company’s computing power for AI development. The idea of developing new AI chips is also said to be part of a push by OpenAI to overcome a shortage of graphics processing units that are currently used to develop AI models, with most of those GPUs coming from Nvidia Corp. * ⚓ Linux Gizmos ☛ Tenstorrent_Unveils_Next_Generation_Wormhole-based Developer_Kits_and_Workstations⠀⇛ Tenstorrent has announced the launch of its next-generation Wormhole chip, now featured in PCIe cards and workstations designed for scalable multi-chip development.

The KDE Plasma 6 flagship edition is shipped with the latest KDE Gear 24.05.2 and KDE Frameworks 6.4 software suite and it uses the X11 session by default. The devs also provide a dedicated Wayland version for the KDE Plasma desktop for those who prefer Wayland instead of X11, but they consider it experimental, for now.

Read_on Adding Two: * ⚓ OpenMandriva_ROME_24.07:_A_Linux-based_alternative_to_Microsoft_Windows 11_following_Crowdstrike_BSOD_disaster⠀⇛ The release of OpenMandriva ROME 24.07 offers a timely Linux alternative for users considering a switch from Microsoft Windows 11, particularly in the wake of the recent Crowdstrike- induced BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) disaster. This rolling release integrates the latest from the Release Candidate, featuring updated packages and enhanced stability. At the forefront of this release is the introduction of KDE Plasma 6 as the default desktop environment, designed to enhance user experience with its improved aesthetics and functionality. For those seeking variety, there are additional spins available with LXQt (2.0.0 Qt6) and GNOME(46.3). It's important to note that while a Wayland-based ISO is offered, OpenMandriva advises that Wayland might not fully replace X11 for all users just yet, especially when used in VirtualBox environments. * ⚓ OpenMandriva_ROME_24.07_Rolls_Out_with_Plasma_6⠀⇛ The release highlights the transition to KDE Plasma 6 (6.1.3) as the default desktop environment, accompanied by KDE Gear 24.05.2 app collection and Frameworks 6.4. Additionally, OpenMandriva offers spins featuring LXQt 2.0 and GNOME 46.3, ensuring that users have multiple options to tailor their desktop environment to their preferences. It is important to note that the distro provides a separate ROME Plasma6 Wayland installation ISO for those eager to explore the latest display server protocols. However, the devs noted that Wayland may not yet be mature enough to replace X11 for most users. Issues such as booting to a black screen in VirtualBox are known but work smoothly on compatible hardware and in QEmu with KVM. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣤⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣉⣹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣗⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣤⣼⣿⡏⠉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣛⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣹⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣟⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⢿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣯⡷⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣗⣽⣸⢿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣷⣵⣿⣝⡻⣷⣭⣿⢟⣫⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⣟⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣟⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣾⣿⣶⣿⣫⣻⣽⣹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣳⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⡻⢿⣻⠕⣻⢿⣿⣿⣾⣷⣶⣗⣿⣿⣿⣶⣷⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣱⢽⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣧⢿⣯⢿⢿⢿⣿⣿⣻⢿⣿⣿⡽⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⡀⢄⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣴⣂⣔⣚⣗⣐⣥⣴⣛⢻⣿⣿⣻⣿⣟⣿⣹⣟⣿⣟⣻⣿⣛⣿⣟⣳⣷⣟⣾⣿⣻⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 656 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/21/Programming_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/21/Programming_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Programming Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 21, 2024 * ⚓ Rlang ☛ Shockingly-fast_data_manipulation_in_R_with_polars⠀⇛ Hey guys, welcome back to my R-tips newsletter. Polars is NOW available in R! Yes– The shockinlgy-fast data manipulation library built on top of Rust is now in R. Today, I’m excited to show off some of Polar’s capabilities for fast financial and time series analysis. Let’s go! * ⚓ Nicolas Magand ☛ What_else_can_I_remove?⠀⇛ For the past couple of years, I’ve often asked myself this question: what else can I remove? The context of this is mostly around technology: list of apps installed on my devices, features and UI elements on this website, etc. In a very nerdy quest for eternal improvements and refinements of my use of technology — among other things — I find that asking myself this question helps me focus my efforts. * ⚓ Juha-Matti Santala ☛ Home-cooked,_situated_software⠀⇛ As a software developer, I mainly consider myself as a “Saturday evening hobbyist”: I love software development but the part of it that I enjoy the most is build small things for myself, my family, my friends and my communities rather than doing full-time professional software development (which I occasionally do to pay the bills). Explaining it felt bit cumbersome though because it wasn’t easily clear to other people what that meant. That was until I read the notes and later saw the recording for Maggie Appleton’s Home-cooked Software and Barefoot Programmers (blog format) which lead me to learn how different people have described my approach in different ways. In her talk, she talks about how large language models (LLMs) can have a revolutionary impact on how non-professional developers can build software for their need. I won’t be talking about LLMs but explore the ideas she shared about home-cooked software and how it relates to my relationship with software development and building tools. * ⚓ Air Force Times ☛ Drone_warfare_in_Ukraine_prompts_fresh_thinking_in helicopter_tactics⠀⇛ The vulnerability of combat helicopters has translated into a high number of losses on the Russian side. In February, a report published by the London-based International Institute for Strategic Studies found that the Russian Aerospace Forces had lost 40% of their pre-war Ka-52 Hokum-B attack helicopter fleet. * ⚓ The Atlantic ☛ What_the_Microsoft_Outage_Reveals⠀⇛ In cases like this one, the fault is less likely to belong to any one engineer than to the inevitable complexity of modern software. Therefore, as Rosenthal and Jones argue—and as I explore in my book Overcomplicated—we must cope with that complexity by using techniques such as chaos engineering instead of trying to engineer it away. As our world becomes more interconnected by massive systems, we need to be the ones breaking them—over and over again—before the world gets a chance. * ⚓ Rlang ☛ King_of_the_Mountain:_using_R_to_bag_a_Strava_KOM⠀⇛ One of the best features of Strava is the battle to be King (or Queen) of the Mountain. Originally, in cycling, segments were typically climbs or difficult sections of road, and the simple idea, is who can complete the segment in the quickest time. * § Perl / Raku⠀➾ o ⚓ Arne Sommer ☛ Sort_of_Reverse_with_Raku⠀⇛ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 765 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/21/Raspberry_like_SBC_Powered_by_RK3528A_SoC_and_PCIe_2_0_Support.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/21/Raspberry_like_SBC_Powered_by_RK3528A_SoC_and_PCIe_2_0_Support.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Raspberry-like SBC Powered by RK3528A SoC and PCIe 2.0 Support⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Jul 21, 2024, updated Jul 21, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Radxa_ROCK_2A_other_features⦈_ Quoting: Raspberry-like SBC Powered by RK3528A SoC and PCIe 2.0 Support Raspberry-like SBC Powered by RK3528A SoC and PCIe 2.0 Support — Expansion capabilities are further enhanced by an FPC connector providing a PCIe 2.0 one-lane signal. This supports the expansion of SSDs, SATA, 2.5G Ethernet ports, and other devices, although an additional expansion board or HAT is required, as mentioned in the product brief.

An attacker could possibly use these issues to cause a denial of service, expose sensitive information, or execute arbitrary code. * ⚓ Cyber Security News ☛ 10_Best_Linux_Firewalls_In_2024⠀⇛ At present, many computers are connected via numerous networks. Monitoring all traffic and having something to filter out good and harmful traffic is critical, and we achieve this with an application or service known as a firewall. Early firewalls were essential software that filtered data traffic based on the sender’s IP address, port number, domain name, etc. However, newer firewalls can now read the data supplied and filter it accordingly. * ⚓ Trend Micro ☛ Play_Ransomware_Group’s_New_Linux_Variant_Targets_ESXi, Shows_Ties_With_Prolific_Puma⠀⇛ Our Threat Hunting team uncovered a Linux variant of the Play ransomware that only encrypts files when running in a VMWare ESXi environment. First detected in June 2022, the Play ransomware group became notable for its double-extortion tactic, evasion techniques, custom-built tools, and substantial impact on various organizations in Latin America. This is the first time that we’ve observed Play ransomware targeting ESXi environments. This development suggests that the group could be broadening its attacks across the Linux platform, leading to an expanded victim pool and more successful ransom negotiations. VMWare ESXi environments are commonly used by businesses to run multiple virtual machines (VMs). They often host critical applications and data, and normally include integrated backup solutions. Compromising them can significantly disrupt business operations and even encrypt backups, which further reduces the victim’s capability to recover data. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 989 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/21/siduction_desktop_oriented_rolling_release_operating_system.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/07/21/siduction_desktop_oriented_rolling_release_operating_system.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ siduction – desktop-oriented, rolling- release operating system⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Jul 21, 2024 Quoting: siduction - desktop-oriented, rolling-release operating system - LinuxLinks — siduction is a desktop-oriented, rolling-release operating system based on the ‘unstable’ branch of Debian.

Your wireless network (or networks) should exist on its own network segment, generally cut off from any wired networking you have and definitely cut off from direct access to your means of Internet connectivity. To get out of the network it should always have to go through a secure gateway that firewalls your home infrastructure from the random wireless devices you have to give wifi access to and their random traffic. One of the things that this implies is that you should implement your wireless with a dedicated wireless access point, not with the wifi capabilities of some all in one device. * ⚓ It's FOSS ☛ Open_External_Links_in_AppImage_for_Login⠀⇛ Having trouble logging in with AppImage application?

Claudio Dutary, operations manager of the main air terminal and recurrent regional hub, affirmed to the press that all systems related to aircraft management, flight aircraft, and communication with navigation systems were not interrupted. The official report adds that the country’s public institutions did not register major incidents due to Microsoft’s failure. * ⚓ [Repeat] Security Week ☛ MediSecure_Data_Breach_Impacts_12.9_Million Individuals⠀⇛ According to the company, the server hosted semi-structured and unstructured data across multiple data sets, which made identifying the affected individuals not practicable without “incurring substantial cost that MediSecure was not in a financial position to meet”. * ⚓ Cyble Inc ☛ CrowdStrike_Outage:_Here's_What_Experts_Have_To_Say⠀⇛ On Friday, July 19, at 4:09 AM UTC (2:09 PM AEST), CrowdStrike released a sensor configuration update on their Falcon program targeting Windows systems. According to a statement published on the company’s blog, this update, intended to target malicious system communication tools in cyberattacks, triggered a “logic error” that resulted in an operating system crash on Windows systems, leaving Mac and Linux users unaffected. We have collected quotes from industry experts to provide insight into the incident: [...] * ⚓ The Record ☛ Teenage_suspect_in_MGM_Resorts_[breach]_arrested_in Britain⠀⇛ A press release from the West Midlands Police said the Regional Organised Crime Unit and the U.K.’s National Crime Agency made the arrest of the Walsall resident on Thursday, in coordination with the FBI. The arrest is “part of a global investigation into a large scale cyber [breach] community which has targeted a number of major companies which includes MGM Resorts in America,” they said. * ⚓ France24 ☛ Global_computer_outage_linked_to_security_firm_CrowdStrike grounds_flights,_hits_banks,_media⠀⇛ Cyber expert James Bore said real harm would be caused by the outage because systems we’ve come to rely on at critical times are not going to be available. Hospitals, for example, will struggle to sort out appointments and those who need care may not get it. “There are going to be deaths because of this. It’s inevitable,’’ Bore said. “We’ve got so many systems tied up with this.” Microsoft 365 posted on social media platform X that the company was “working on rerouting the impacted traffic to alternate systems to alleviate impact” and that they were “observing a positive trend in service availability.” * ⚓ The Hindu ☛ Microsoft_outage_|_24_flights_cancelled_at_Hyderabad airport_on_Day_2⠀⇛ All systems are operational at Hyderabad’s Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (RGIA), but the ripple effect of Microsoft outage persists. On Saturday, 24 flights to and from Hyderabad were cancelled. The affected routes include Chennai, Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Bangalore, Raipur, Lucknow, Visakhapatnam, Goa, and Thiruvananthapuram. * ⚓ India Times ☛ Microsoft's_CrowdStrike_leaves_business_black_and_blue_in India⠀⇛ CrowdStrike, a US-based endpoint security provider to several global organisations including Microsoft, first released an update to its product - Falcon Sensor - on July 9 gradually rolling it out to companies globally over the next 10 days. On July 18 and 19, the update - intended to pre-emptively detect cybersecurity breaches - was pushed onto Microsoft devices unwittingly, triggering widespread chaos. It forced several banks, hospitals, airlines, and startups to resort to manual processes to continue operations, industry executives said. * ⚓ Futurism ☛ Microsoft_Recommends_Rebooting_Your_Computer_15_Times_as Blue_Screen_of_Death_Strikes_Worldwide⠀⇛ As the world is still reeling from a massive IT outage triggered by a faulty security software update by CrowdStrike that forced Windows machines to crash, Microsoft is trying to pick up the pieces. Worse yet, the bug needs to be addressed in person by IT professionals. * ⚓ The Register UK ☛ UK_cops_arrest_teen_suspect_in_MGM_Resorts cyberattack_probe⠀⇛ Cops in the UK have arrested a suspected member of the notorious Scattered Spider crime gang, which is accused of crippling MGM Resorts in Las Vegas with ransomware last summer. * ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Cybercriminals_quick_to_exploit_CrowdStrike_chaos⠀⇛ Just hours after a faulty CrowdStrike file shut down Windows machines around the globe, reports surfaced of scam emails using the outage as a lure and otherwise trying to use the massive outage as a means to pursue criminal activities. * ⚓ New York Times ☛ Global_CrowdStrike_Outage_Proves_How_Fragile_IT Systems_Have_Become⠀⇛ The trouble began with a small Windows software update CrowdStrike sent to its customers on Thursday night. For some reason, this crashed every computer it touched. “Your PC ran into a problem,” users were cheerily informed. “It looks like Windows didn’t load correctly,” messages announced. The backdrop was the color of a perfect sky, also known as the Blue Screen of Death. * ⚓ Google ☛ APT41_Has_Arisen_From_the_DUST⠀⇛ APT41 used a combination of ANTSWORD and BLUEBEAM web shells for the execution of DUSTPAN to execute BEACON backdoor for command-and-control communication. Later in the intrusion, APT41 leveraged DUSTTRAP, which would lead to hands-on keyboard activity. APT41 used publicly available tools SQLULDR2 for copying data from databases and PINEGROVE to exfiltrate data to Microsoft OneDrive. * ⚓ NPR ☛ What_we_know_about_the_computer_update_glitch_[sic]_disrupting systems_around_the_world⠀⇛ From continent to continent, Microsoft users reported being suddenly knocked offline, and the culprit was determined to be cybersecurity company CrowdStrike, which says one of its routine software updates malfunctioned. “CrowdStrike is actively working with customers impacted by a defect found in a single content update for Windows hosts,” the company said in a statement. Customers using Mac and Linux operating systems were not affected, CrowdStrike said. * ⚓ France24 ☛ Crowdstrike's_massive_global_IT_[sic]_crash:_Here's_what_you need_to_know⠀⇛ Much of the world faced online disarray Friday as a widespread technology outage affected companies and services across industries — grounding flights, knocking banks and hospital systems offline and media outlets off air. * ⚓ India Times ☛ Without_backup_plans,_global_IT_[sic]_outages_will_happen again⠀⇛ Friday's outage was caused by an update that U.S. cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike pushed to its clients early on Friday morning which conflicted with Microsoft's Windows operating system, rendering devices around the world inoperable. * ⚓ India Times ☛ Microsoft_outage:_Ola’s_Bhavish_Aggarwal_bats_for stringent_data_localisation_norms⠀⇛ The Ola chief has been advocating for Made-in-India technologies and even migrated from Google Maps to his in-house Ola Maps. He invited developers to join at a subsidised cost and claimed that unlike Google his company charges in rupees and not in dollars. Google on Friday slashed its Maps pricing by 70% and allowed developers to pay in rupees. Aggarwal also migrated from Google Cloud to Ola’s cloud platform. Microsoft's products are used in many sectors of the Indian economy, including businesses, schools, and government organisations. * ⚓ India Times ☛ Microsoft_global_outage_puts_all_on_the_blink⠀⇛ What’s the news: Microsoft's cloud services, particularly Azure, faced issues, leading to widespread service interruptions. Sources aware of the matter told us that the issue is likely due to a recent update from CrowdStrike, a US- based cybersecurity company that provides endpoint security to several organisations globally. * ⚓ India Times ☛ Microsoft_outage:_Windows_PCs,_IT_systems_hit;_users_get 'blue_screen'_errors⠀⇛ Bank services in Australia and New Zealand were disrupted as they lost access to computer systems, as per media reports. Australia's largest bank, Commonwealth Bank said some customers had been unable to transfer money due to the outage. * ⚓ Deccan Chronicle ☛ Microsoft's_Global_Outage:_When_the_Blue_Screen_of Death_Became_the_Life_of_the_Party!⠀⇛ On July 19, the tech [sic] world was saw chaos unfold as the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) issued a dire advisory: a major outage was wreaking havoc on Microsoft Windows systems. The culprit? A recent update of the CrowdStrike agent, Falcon Sensor, turned countless computers into glorified paperweights, crashing them into the dreaded "Blue Screen of Death." As if that weren’t enough, this digital fiasco didn’t just affect office workers; it sent shockwaves through airports, banks, and media outlets worldwide. Reports of widespread system crashes flooded in, with DownDetector tracking outages at major players like Visa, Amazon, and airlines such as American Airlines and Delta. Even the stock exchanges in India—NSE and BSE—managed to stay afloat while chaos reigned elsewhere.
