I do this when I get a bit verbose to keep the newsletter brief. The newsletter is becoming a blog incubator, which I’m okay with. * ⚓ Daniel Stenberg ☛ more_curl_help⠀⇛ Right now curl supports 265 separate command line options in the latest development version. The text-only version of the manpage is almost 7,000 lines long. Searching the manpage for an option is sometimes also tedious since there are a lot of mentions of options in descriptions for other options. Like in see also how option blabla can help you accomplish this. So you might need to hit the key for next-search a significant number of times before you find the place you want if the term you search for is in the bottom half of the manpage. curl --manual exists as well, and is convenient since everyone who has the tool automatically also has the documentation for it. But it carries the same challenge. * ⚓ Alex Sirac ☛ [Reply]_Re:RSS_feeds_or_blogs?_–_Alex⠀⇛ In both cases, I discover the post through the RSS feed, then visit the website and enjoy the design and the context of the post.

However, a vulnerability recently brought up by Oligo Security has gone without a fix for much longer: 18 years. Update A couple more: * ⚓ Major_browser_providers_scramble_to_patch_an_18-year-old_vulnerability affecting_MacOS_and_Linux_systems_but_Windows_remains_gloriously_immune⠀⇛ We Windows users are sometimes the butt of the joke when it comes to cybersecurity issues. Or at least, we often used to be. Still, if I receive one more lecture on why Linux or Mac systems are more secure, I'll at least have this article to point to. Not always, I shall say. Not always. * ⚓ Browsers_on_MacOS_and_Linux_have_failed_to_block_malicious_instructions sent_to_0.0.0.0_–_for_18_years⠀⇛ If a malicious website pings a 0.0.0.0 IP address, web browsers on Linux or MacOS won't question it – they’ll route the request to the application listening on a specified port.

I had a rough year and decided to take it easy this DebConf. So this is the first DebConf in a long time where I didn’t give any talks. I mostly caught up on a bit of packaging, worked on DebConf video stuff, attended a few BoFs and talked to people. Overall it was a very good DebConf, which also turned out to be more productive than I expeced it would. In the welcome session on the first day of DebConf, Nicolas Dandrimont mentioned that a benefit of DebConf is that it provides a sort of caffeine for your Debian motivation. I could certainly feel that affect swell as the days went past, and it’s nice to be excited about some ideas again that would otherwise be fading. * ⚓ A_Selection_of_DebConf24_Talks⠀⇛ DebConf24 is now over!

A global effort to try and find the best qualities of components would be a great opportunity to improve components everywhere. * § K Desktop Environment/KDE SC/Qt⠀➾ o ⚓ Akademy_2024_Call_for_Volunteers⠀⇛ Akademy needs you! Volunteering is a great way to make new friends and Akademy wouldn't be possible without us all pitching in to make it happen. Find a task or two that sounds fun and sign yourself up! All you need to do is add yourself to a timeslot on the wiki_page * § GNOME Desktop/GTK⠀➾ o ⚓ GNOME ☛ Christian_Hergert:_Threaded_Spellchecking⠀⇛ Last I mentioned I was doing an ABI_cleanup of libspelling as it was really just a couple hour hack that got used by people. Part of that was to make way for performing spellchecking off the GTK thread. That just landed in today’s libspelling_0.3.0 release. In one contrived benchmark, spellchecking a 10,000 line document was 8x faster. YMMV. One of the reasons it’s faster is we don’t need to use the GtkTextIter Hey Hi (AI) Pango provides all the things we need to do that without the PangoLayout overhead. So we just skip right past that and implement iterators off- thread. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 401 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/10/Devices_Raspberry_Pi_Digi_International_and_More.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/10/Devices_Raspberry_Pi_Digi_International_and_More.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Devices: Raspberry Pi, Digi International, and More⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 10, 2024 ⚓ CNX Software ☛ MechDog_Hey_Hi_(AI)_Robot_Dog_features_ESP32-S3_controller, supports_Scratch,_Python,_and_Arduino_programming⠀⇛ Hiwonder’s MechDog is a compact Hey Hi (AI) robot dog powered by an ESP32-S3 controller that drives eight high-speed coreless servos. It features built-in inverse kinematics for precise and agile movements and has ports for various I2C sensors such as ultrasonic and IMU sensors. * ⚓ CNX Software ☛ ADLINK_SBC35-ALN_3.5-inch_defective_chip_maker_Intel_N97 SBC_features_SBC-FM_expansion_connector_with_PCIe,_USB,_SMBus⠀⇛ ADLINK SBC35-ALN is a 3.5-inch defective chip maker Intel N97 SBC with up to 16GB DDR5, an M.2 socket for M.2 storage, and a custom SBC-FM expansion connector with PCIe Gen3 x1, USB 2.0, and SMBus interfaces. The 3.5-inch board also features two gigabit Ethernet ports, three display interfaces with HDMI, DisplayPort, and LVDS or eDP, several USB ports and RS232/ RS422/RS485 serial interfaces, 40-pin box headers, and M.2 E- Key and B-Key sockets for wireless expansion. * ⚓ Arduino ☛ Making_fire_detection_more_accurate_with_ML_sensor_fusion⠀⇛ The mere presence of a flame in a controlled environment, such as a candle, is perfectly acceptable, but when tasked with determining if there is cause for alarm solely using vision data, embedded Hey Hi (AI) models can struggle with false positives. * ⚓ Arduino ☛ Adjusting_office_chair_height_with_simple_voice_commands⠀⇛ A month ago, ElectronicLab modified his office chair with an electric car jack, giving it motorized height adjustment. That worked well, but required that he push buttons to raise or lower the seat. * ⚓ Raspberry_Pi_Weekly_Issue_#477_-_Meet_Raspberry_Pi_Pico_2,_our_new_$5 microcontroller_board⠀⇛ Surprise! It’s the next big tiny thing. Surprise! Raspberry Pi Pico 2 is the next big tiny thing. Our next-generation microcontroller board is built using Raspberry Pi RP2350, and it's on sale now at $5. (We're sorry if you got two of this message, and one was missing links to the fun.

Its standout features were the programmable input/output units (PIOs) which enabled all sorts of custom real-time shenanigans. And that’s not to discount the impact of the Pi Pico, the $4 dev kit built around it. * ⚓ Business Wire ☛ Digi_International_Announces_Expanded_Support_for_Linux and_Windows_with_Digi_AnywhereUSB®_Plus⠀⇛ Digi International, (NASDAQ: DGII, www.digi.com), a leading global provider of Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity products and services, today announced new and expanded support for Linux and improved Microsoft Windows functionality with its USB connectivity solution, Digi AnywhereUSB® Plus. * ⚓ Digi_International_Announces_Expanded_Support_for_Linux_and_Windows with_Digi_AnywhereUSB®_Plus⠀⇛ Digi International (NASDAQ: DGII) has announced expanded support for Linux and improved Microsoft Windows functionality for its Digi AnywhereUSB® Plus solution.

But only rarely does that kind of vulnerability appear not in the firmware of any particular computer maker, but in the chips found across hundreds of millions of PCs and servers. Now security researchers have found one such flaw that has persisted in AMD processors for decades, and that would allow malware to burrow deep enough into a computer's memory that, in many cases, it may be easier to discard a machine than to disinfect it. o ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ How_Linux_kernel_driver_modules_for hardware_get_loaded_(I_think)⠀⇛ Once upon a time, a long time ago, the kernel modules for your hardware got loaded during boot because they were listed explicitly as 'load these modules' in configuration files somewhere. You can still explicitly list modules this way (and you may need to for things like IPMI drivers), but most hardware driver modules aren't loaded like this any more. Instead they get loaded through udev, through what I believe is two mechanisms. * § Programming/Development⠀➾ o ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Agile_is_killing_software_innovation,_says Moxie_Marlinspike⠀⇛ Marlinspike opened the second day of Black Hat with a talk that was ostensibly supposed to be a fireside chat with Black Hat founder Jeff Moss, but the Signal founder stole the show with an opening chat laying out a case for reclaiming the "magic" of software development that's been lost after 20 years. That loss, he argued, was due to stuffing developers into "black box abstraction layers" that strip them of the freedom needed to be innovative. o ⚓ Uwe Friedrichsen ☛ The_long_way_towards_resilience_-_Part_1⠀⇛ Which leads to the third question. Quite often, people are not actually interested in resilience if they talk about resilience (especially in the context of IT). There are several prototypical evolution steps companies go through on their journey towards resilience. However, depending on the task at hand, it may be perfectly fine to stop your journey at one of the interim steps. Of course, this is not actual resilience what they achieved in such a situation but it may be completely sufficient to solve their task. This blog series is based on a presentation, I gave a few times (see, e.g., the J On the Beach 2024 recording). In its core, the post series follows the same storyline as the presentation. However, it dives deeper into the topic and (hopefully) fills the blanks, the presentation had to leave due to time and scope restrictions. As all this would be way too long for a single blog post, I split it up in several posts: [...] o ⚓ Daniel Fedorin ☛ Implementing_and_Verifying_"Static_Program Analysis"_in_Agda,_Part_2:_Combining_Lattices⠀⇛ In the previous post, I wrote about how lattices arise when tracking, comparing and combining static information about programs. I then showed two simple lattices: the natural numbers, and the (parameterized) “above-below” lattice, which modified an arbitrary set with “bottom” and “top” elements (⊥ and ⊤ respectively). One instance of the “above-below” lattice was the sign lattice, which could be used to reason about the signs (positive, negative, or zero) of variables in a program. At the end of that post, I introduced a source of complexity: the “full” lattices that we want to use for the program analysis aren’t signs or numbers, but maps of states and variables to lattice-based descriptions. The full lattice for sign analysis might something in the form: Info≜ProgramStates→(Variables→Sign) Thus, we have to compare and find least upper bounds (e.g.) of not just signs, but maps! Proving the various lattice laws for signs was not too challenging, but for for a two-level map like InfoInfo above, we’d need to do a lot more work. We need tools to build up such complicated lattices. o ⚓ Daniel Fedorin ☛ Implementing_and_Verifying_"Static_Program Analysis"_in_Agda,_Part_3:_Lattices_of_Finite_Height⠀⇛ The formalization I settled on is quite similar to the informal description: a lattice has a finite height of length hh if the longest chain of elements compared by (<)(<) is exactly hh. There’s only a slight complication: we allow for equivalent-but-not-equal elements in lattices. For instance, for a map lattice, we don’t care about the order of the keys: so long as two maps relate the same set of keys to the same respective values, we will consider them equal. This, however, is beyond the notion of Agda’s propositional equality (_≡_). Thus, we we need to generalize the definition of a chain to support equivalences. I parameterize the Chain module in my code by an equivalence relation, as well as the comparison relation R, which we will set to < for our chains. The equivalence relation _≈_ and the ordering relation R/< are expected to play together nicely (if a < b, and a is equivalent to c, then it should be the case that c < b). o ⚓ Andrew Healey ☛ Generating_Mazes_—_Andrew_Healey⠀⇛ I've been reading about mazes and how to generate them. The type of mazes I'll be talking about are 2D grids of connected cells. They're perfect mazes (i.e. there is exactly one unique path between any two cells aka a uniform spanning tree). I'll refer to the connections between cells as edges. An edge can be created between a cell and any of its neighbors (up, right, left, down). When two cells don't share an edge, there is a wall between them. While generating a maze, if a cell isn't reachable, I'll render it dark. o § Python⠀➾ # ⚓ Juha-Matti Santala ☛ Rotating_turn_order_with_deque⠀⇛ A while back in the spring I was in a technical job interview where I was tasked to implement a Kimble game engine. While the idea didn’t unfortunately pop into my head during the interview, when I was revising my approach later, I realized that deque is a nice data structure for rotating turn order. # ⚓ Juha-Matti Santala ☛ Debug_with_pdb_and_breakpoint⠀⇛ Python comes with good tools in its standard library for debugging software. Debugging is a topic very close to my heart. I have been writing and talking and workshopping about debugging for years. Last year, I gave a series of talks titled Debugging Python that I also wrote in blog form. I've also written debugging newsletter Syntax Error that you can check out if you want to learn more about debugging. This blog post focuses on The Python Debugger that is part of the standard library. * § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ o ⚓ Cory Dransfeldt ☛ A_feed_for_everything_and_everything_in_a feed⠀⇛ At the moment my site has 6 different feeds. 5 RSS feeds, an ICS feeds and JSON versions of the 5 RSS feeds. I was asked how they're put together and, well, it's a bit involved. o ⚓ The Register UK ☛ ICANN_approves_use_of_.internal_domain_for_your network⠀⇛ Picking a string dedicated exclusively to internal networks was the alternative. After years of consultation about whether it was a good idea – and which string should be selected – ICANN last week decided on .internal. Any future applications to register it as a global TLD won't be allowed. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 904 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/10/Making_Linux_Boot_Faster_and_New_Work_by_Bootlin.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/10/Making_Linux_Boot_Faster_and_New_Work_by_Bootlin.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Making Linux Boot Faster and New Work by Bootlin⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 10, 2024 * ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Linux_boot_time_reduced_by_0.035_seconds_thanks_to_a one-line_kernel_patch_—_aligning_the_slab_in_the_ACPI_code_makes_GNU/ Linux_boot_faster⠀⇛ Linux engineer Colin Ian King discovered that aligning the slab in the ACPI code will make GNU/Linux boot consistently faster by 35 milliseconds. * ⚓ Bootlin ☛ Buildroot_support_for_STM32MP_updated,_STM32MP2_added⠀⇛ We are happy to announce a new release of our buildroot- external-st project, which is a Buildrooot add-on that allows to easily get started with STMicroelectronics STM32MP platforms using Buildroot.

The trick: the microcontroller isn't designed to have all four cores running at once; instead, users are expected to pick between the Cortex-M33 or Hazard3 cores depending on their use- case, or — optionally — run one of each with shared memory access. * ⚓ The New Leaf Journal ☛ Copying_RetroArch_Controller_Config_to_Lutris⠀⇛ I just published an article about playing Pokémon Red on my Linux computer with the Gambatte Game Boy emulator using a genuine NES 2 (sometimes known as the top-loader NES) controller (the “NES” is the Nintendo Entertainment System). As I explained in that post, I used an NES-to-USB adapter because my computers (unsurprisingly) do not have native NES controller ports. I had an easy time using the user interface in RetroArch to configure the buttons on my controller (RetroArch did not have a good working profile for my adapter). However, I had one minor issue: I am actually using the Lutris game launcher with the Libretro core, not RetroArch proper, for my current Pokémon Red play-through. * ⚓ PC World ☛ Raspberry_Pi_Pico_2_is_faster_and_backward-compatible,_still only_$5⠀⇛ The Raspberry Pi Pico 2 — which is programmable using C, C++, and Python — is available in various housing options and is intended for DIY projects that are too big or too powerful for a Raspberry Pi to handle.

The new Raspberry Pi Pico 2 has an astonishingly low price of just $5. * [Repeat] ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ New_Raspberry_Pi_RP2350_Arm_+_RISC_chip_to_power dozens_of_new_devices;_here's_a_running_list⠀⇛ Now this is an unusual one. Over my breakfast, I read reports via X (formerly Twitter) that this year’s DEF CON badge is based around the RP2350. Raspberry Pi has confirmed that the RP2350 is indeed powering the DEF CON badges, offering a bounty of $10,000 if you can break the the signed boot process used in the RP2350's new security features. DEF CON, the hacking and security conference currently taking place in Las Vegas has a tradition of cool badges, and it seems that they got early access to the RP2350 in order to flash the firmware to the many thousands of badges. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1044 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/10/Open_Hardware_Modding_Raspberry_Pi_FriendlyELEC_and_More.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/10/Open_Hardware_Modding_Raspberry_Pi_FriendlyELEC_and_More.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Open Hardware/Modding: Raspberry Pi, FriendlyELEC, and More⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 10, 2024 * ⚓ CNX Software ☛ DFI_RPP051_Pico-ITX_SBC_features_13th_Gen_defective_chip maker_Intel_Core_embedded_SoC_from_Processor_U300E_to_defective_chip maker_Intel_Core_i7-1365UE⠀⇛ DFI RPP051 is a 2.5-inch Pico-ITX SBC built around 13th Gen defective chip maker Intel Core processors ranging from the dual-core defective chip maker Intel Processor U300E to the 10- core defective chip maker Intel Core i7-1365UE.

Now, thanks to Nextcloud, it’s supported to the nines. Roundcube is an open-source webmail client that can be used as a method for accessing email online. I used it as my goto for several years a while back, and still keep it around as an alternative for those times when the client on my desktop gets the hiccups. It’s popular because it’s often included as a freebie in shared hosting packages. Enterprises like it too but haven’t adopted it as much as they might, partly due the its lack of technical support and partly because it often doesn’t completely fill their needs. Like any email client, it only offers a front end for users and must connect to an email server to send or receive emails. Enterprises looking for a webmail solution are likely to be looking for a solution that includes an email server and client wrapped up in one neat package.

This allows compatible themes to always display beautiful sharp cursors at any size, and has already been rolled out for the Breeze Light and Breeze Dark cursor themes. It does not use the Hyprcursor system, and we have not yet upstreamed it to be a different cross-desktop spec. However, we are considering doing so in the near future. This work was done by Jin Liu and Vlad Zahorodnii, and lands in Plasma 6.2.0. On the subject of cross-desktop specs, KDE apps now does support the cross-desktop thumbnailer spec, meaning that any of these thumbnailers already on the system will now instantly start working! One of the most notable examples would be the STL file thumbnailer, which will be a boon for anyone working with 3D models or 3D printers. This work was done by Akseli Lahtinen and lands in KDE Frameworks 6.6. You can read about it more in this blog post.
