Over the years, one of the things that has most impressed me is the ability of Linux distribution developers to reinvent the wheel in ways that make the open-source operating system more efficient and more aesthetically pleasing at the same time. There's no limit to the creativity found in the open-source development world -- and the beauty of the Linux desktop is proof of that. Beauty, as we know, is in the eye of the beholder. You might think Windows 11 or MacOS Sonoma is the most elegant desktop on the market -- and that's great. For me, however, you cannot beat some of today's Linux desktops for performance, reliability, simplicity -- and beauty!

But I don’t need them to be very fast or to be any more reliable than modern server and disk hardware generally are. I do need some sort of effective backup/restore facility, and I want good solid modern authentication. And, of course, I want this to be a whole lot cheaper than the “enterprise”-facing public cloud. Because I’m not an enterprise. * ⚓ Geshan ☛ How_to_insert_multiple_rows_in_Postgres_using_two_useful methods⠀⇛ The PostgreSQL database, lovingly known as Postgres, is a powerful open-source database management system. Developers adore it for its robustness, reliability, and expressive SQL (Structured Query Language) capabilities. Often, when working with Postgres, you'll need to insert multiple rows into a table. While the single-row INSERT statement might be the first thing that pops into your mind, there are more efficient approaches when dealing with large amounts of data. In this blog post, you will dive deep into two powerful methods that can significantly streamline the process of inserting multiple rows in Postgres. Let's get started! * ⚓ Peter Eisentraut ☛ The_new_PostgreSQL_17_make_dist⠀⇛ I think this is progress, if you care about software supply chain integrity. (It’s also a relief if you care about maintaining the build system.) There are certainly more things that could be done. One thing mentioned above is that reproducible builds don’t work for PostgreSQL in all situations. My understanding is that this needs to be fixed elsewhere, though. Another topic is more traceability about how things get into the Git repository. The make dist change only ensures that once code is in the Git repository, you can trace it from there, ideally all the way to the end user installation. There are, of course, various technical and social processes in the PostgreSQL developer community that monitor the integrity of the source code, but there is nothing currently that checks in a computerized, cryptographic way the origin of what goes into the Git repository. So something like signed commits might be worth looking into in the future in order to improve this further. * ⚓ Medevel ☛ Deploying_a_Laravel_PHP_App_with_PostgreSQL_Using_Docker_and Docker_Compose⠀⇛ Deploying a Laravel PHP application with a PostgreSQL database using Docker and Docker Compose is an efficient way to manage and scale web applications. * ⚓ Konstantin Tutsch ☛ How-To_Use_BeaconDB_as_Your_Geolocation_Provider_on Linux⠀⇛ On March 13, 2024, Mozilla decided to retire their geolocation service and database.1 This is probably the reason you are currently reading this post and I can also safely assume that your system is not able to locate itself anymore. No worries though, there's a quick fix. It's BeaconDB! An open-source alternative to the Mozilla Location Service. It's still in an experimental stage, but already pretty mature. And to our luck, also uses the same request format as Mozilla.2 ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 323 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/14/Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Software_howtos_and_Installations.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/14/Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Software_howtos_and_Installations.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Best Free and Open Source Software, howtos and Installations⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Aug 14, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Email⦈_ * ⚓ 14_Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Email_Servers_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Messages are exchanged between hosts using the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol with software programs called mail transfer agents, and delivered to a mail store by programs called mail delivery agents, frequently referred to as email clients. Within the Internet email system, a message transfer agent, or mail transfer agent, or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using SMTP. The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host are also used in some contexts. Here’s our verdict on the finest email servers for Linux. All of the servers are published under an open source license. * ⚓ Rash_-_Reckless_Racket_Shell_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Rash is a language, library, and shell REPL for Racket. Rash combines the convenience of simple shell-like syntax with the power of Racket, a full-fledged programming language. Use as a repl that is as convenient for pipelining programs as Bash is, but has all the power of Racket. Use as a scripting language with #lang rash. Embed in normal Racket files with (require rash), and mix freely with any other Racket language or library. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ Showtime_-_GNOME_media_player_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Totem (Videos) is currently the default GNOME video player. It’s regarded as a Core App. But it looks like Showtime may usurp Totem. Showtime is billed as a media player that lets you watch videos without any distraction. Showtime uses the GStreamer framework for video and audio playback. It also uses GTK4/libadwaita to deliver a modern and immersive user interface with a responsive design which also seamlessly adapts to different screen sizes, including mobile and tablet. ⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣷⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠿⣿⡿⠿⠟⠛⠋⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣴⣶⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣴⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⡧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⣤ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⣁⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣁⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠤⣄⣒⣪⣽⣿⣾⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢴⣶⣾⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠿⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣤⣴⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠴⣶⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠛⠉⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠴⣿⣿⡿⠿⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⢀⣀⣸⡗⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣄⡀⠀⠀⠄⣀⣀⡤⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣠⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠶⠿⠿⠛⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢔⣿⡿⠿⠟⠓⠀⠛⢿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣄⠀⣾⣷⣤⣻⣿⣿⣷⣤⣤⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣷⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣴⣶⣦⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠿⠛⠃⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣾⢿⠟⠛⠈⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣤⢾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣶⣶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣠⡤⢶⣒⡫⠭⠖⠚⠉⠉⠉⠉⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣠⡤⠴⣖⣻⠭⠽⠒⠋⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣷⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣤⡴⣖⣚⣯⠽⠖⠛⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣤⡤⢶⣒⣿⠿⠗⠚⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⣤⠤⢴⣶⣿⡯⠿⠒⠛⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣤⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠛⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣤⣤⣶⣾⣿⡿⠿⠛⠛⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣄⣰⣶⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣠⣤⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿ ⣷⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠛⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 425 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/14/Calamares_Installer_3_3_9_Released_Here_s_What_s_New.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/14/Calamares_Installer_3_3_9_Released_Here_s_What_s_New.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Calamares Installer 3.3.9 Released, Here’s What’s New⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Aug 14, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Calamares⦈_ Quoting: Calamares Installer 3.3.9 Released, Here’s What’s New — This release primarily focuses on minor bug fixes and enhancements, with a notable improvement in the Arabic translation. One critical reminder in Calamares 3.3.9 is directed at distributions using it with full disk encryption. Specifically, if your setup includes the luksbootkeyfile module, it’s essential to place it before the fstab module in the “settings.conf” file. Failing to do so will result in the keyfile being absent from crypttab, causing the user to be prompted for their password multiple times during boot. Apart from that, the configuration file schemas have been improved, providing better structure and validation and ensuring the installer correctly interprets settings.

[...] While the initial appointment as Interim Engineering Director happened quickly, it was made clear to me that in order to secure the VP of Engineering position on a long term basis, I’d need to apply and compete with other external candidates. I hadn’t been with the company for very long, so some of my original assessment data was used. I was interviewed by other leads in Engineering, Alliances, HR and Product as part of the process – as well as a final interview with our CEO. The role didn’t open until I’d been doing the interim job for around 4-5 months, but once I applied the process concluded within a few weeks.

When I originally booked my travel I had a nice set of two flights in the afternoon/evening and all was fine, but then they canceled my first flight and rebooked me on a much earlier flight. So, I got up around 4am, showered and grabbed coffee and off to the airport. I had left a bunch of room in case traffic in portland was bad, but it turned out of course that it was fine and I had lots of time. Then to MDW for a 5 hour layover. Had a beer and a chicken sandwitch and caught up on email a bit there. Then, my second (and last) flight from MDW to ROC. This was supposed to be just over an hour, but turns out we had to wait about 45m for a connecting flight to arrive, then when we got almost to landing, it turned out there was a bunch of rain, so they had to circle around for another 30min or so.

But we didn't slow down; in February we attended_FOSDEM, then announced improved_app_moderation and app_brand_colors in preparation for some new features.

It also turned out to be really easy to fix text rendering. So, what’s next? Well, some websites like https://discuss.haiku-os.org cause WebKit to crash. This crash also seems to affect other websites. Really, it seems to occur anytime WebKit decides to use multiple bitmaps (actually, in WebKit lingo, backing stores) to render a web page. Rendering a single bitmap is easy, just display it! But when you have multiple, you need to composite them together. It seems like WebKit currently requires EGL and maybe OpenGL to do this. * ⚓ HaikuOS ☛ Haiku_Activity_&_Contract_Report,_July_2024⠀⇛ In addition to the standard read and write I/O calls, there are also variants called readv and writev which accept arrays (“vectors”) of buffers (with possibly varying sizes) to read and write from all at once. Of course, readv and writev can be implemented in terms of standard read and write just using a loop, and for the most part that’s what the default implementation in the kernel did. Most of the time, this was fast enough, because most reads and writes are backed by the “file cache”, and as such means the read or write is just a simple memory copy (and the real I/O is done much later.) ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 816 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/14/Framework_Laptop_13_reviewed_again_Meteor_Lake_meh_Linux_upgrad.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/14/Framework_Laptop_13_reviewed_again_Meteor_Lake_meh_Linux_upgrad.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Framework Laptop 13 reviewed, again: Meteor Lake meh, Linux upgrades good⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Aug 14, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇The_new_Framework_display_panel_has_gently_rounded_corners, which_both_Windows_and_Linux_OSes_just_treat_as_small_patches_of_dead_space.

Framework's fifth motherboard for the Laptop 13—which, in typical fashion, can be easily swapped into any existing Framework Laptop 13 of any generation—is mainly significant because it offers Intel's Meteor Lake-based Core Ultra chips. But Framework likes to release its updates in batches, and this one also comes with a few designed to make the Laptop 13 a better system for Linux enthusiasts. One of those changes is a redesigned keyboard, which is exactly like the older Framework Laptop 13 keyboard, except it has a Super key instead of a Windows logo on it. The second is a higher-resolution display upgrade, specifically chosen because it looks better in 200 percent scaling mode than the old screen; Linux still has problems with "fractional" scaling modes like 125 percent and 150 percent, which was what the old Framework screen usually looked best at.

That’s fine, but the flawed part is that despite posts being federated, the fetched link metadata is not, which means that every server that receives a copy of a post with a link is going to make its own individual request for that same metadata. A post from someone with a lot of followers, or one that’s boosted quite a bit, can result in thousands of separate requests for the same data from different Mastodon servers. And these requests are all placed within seconds of one another (because federation is very efficient). The phenomenon is called the Mastodon Stampede, which is cute, but it doesn’t feel very cute when your site gets knocked down by a thousand servers that are banging away on it for no other reason than to grab a little optional information about a link. * ⚓ Zola ☛ Overview_|_Zola⠀⇛ Zola is a static site generator (SSG), similar to Hugo, Pelican, and Jekyll (for a comprehensive list of SSGs, please see Jamstack).

In essence this is an introduction to the inner_and_outer_loops_of cloud-native_development. To get started, install Podman Desktop. This step is pretty straightforward, owing to the fact that Podman Desktop has a downloads_page that supports typical installation flows for Linux, macOS, and backdoored Windows and has setup guides_for_each_platform. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1721 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/14/Review_of_or_for_Framework_Laptop_Including_GNU_Linux_Perspecti.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/08/14/Review_of_or_for_Framework_Laptop_Including_GNU_Linux_Perspecti.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Review of (or for) Framework Laptop, Including GNU/Linux Perspective⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 14, 2024 * ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Framework_Laptop_13_(Intel_Core_Ultra)_review: Familiar_formula,_now_with_Core_Ultra_and_a_2.8K_display⠀⇛ The Framework Laptop 13 (Intel Core Ultra) offers unmatched configurability and repairability—for a price. * ⚓ Forbes ☛ Framework_13_+_defective_chip_maker_Intel_Core_Ultra_7_Review: Your_Forever_Laptop?⠀⇛ Framework is championing right to repair and creating a consumer-friendly laptop future.

These are elevation of privilege vulnerabilities in the Microsoft Windows kernel-mode driver that could allow an attacker to gain SYSTEM- level privileges. The most serious of the issues included in August’s Patch Tuesday is CVE-2024-38063, a remote code execution vulnerability in Windows TCP/IP. An unauthenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability by repeatedly sending specially crafted IPv6 packets to a targeted Windows machine that could enable remote code execution. Systems that have IPv6 disabled are not susceptible to this vulnerability. * ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Patch_Tuesday:_6_Microsoft_fixes_for_flaws_already exploited⠀⇛ Microsoft has disclosed 90 flaws in its products – six of which have already been exploited – and four others that are listed as publicly known. * ⚓ Cyble Inc ☛ Ransomware-as-a-Service_Model_Architect_Extradited_To U.S.⠀⇛ Silnikau, who also used aliases like “xxx” and “lansky,” is accused of playing a key role in the creation of Reveton, a pioneering ransomware strain credited with introducing the Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) model in 2011. RaaS simplifies ransomware attacks, allowing even low-skilled criminals to launch them for a small fee. * ⚓ Krebs On Security ☛ Six_0-Days_Lead_Microsoft’s_August_2024_Patch Push⠀⇛ CVE-2024-38106, CVE-2024-38107 and CVE-2024-38193 all allow an attacker to gain SYSTEM level privileges on a vulnerable machine, although the vulnerabilities reside in different parts of the Windows operating system. Microsoft’s advisories include little information about the last two privilege escalation flaws, other than to note they are being actively exploited. Microsoft says CVE-2024-38106 exists in the Windows Kernel and is being actively exploited, but that it has a high “attack complexity,” meaning it can be tricky for malware or miscreants to exploit reliably. * ⚓ The Register UK ☛ FBI_busts_minor_league_Radar/Dispossessor_ransomware gang⠀⇛ The FBI said it took down the "Radar/Dispossessor" group. For the uninitiated, the slash there could raise questions. It's not one group that goes by two names, it's actually two groups that operate as two distinct units but share project work. * ⚓ [Old] Medium ☛ Everything_Is_Broken._Once_upon_a_time,_a_friend_of mine…⠀⇛ Once upon a time, a friend of mine accidentally took over thousands of computers. He had found a vulnerability in a piece of software and started playing with it. In the process, he figured out how to get total administration access over a network. He put it in a script, and ran it to see what would happen, then went to bed for about four hours. Next morning on the way to work he checked on it, and discovered he was now lord and master of about 50,000 computers. After nearly vomiting in fear he killed the whole thing and deleted all the files associated with it. In the end he said he threw the hard drive into a bonfire. I can’t tell you who he is because he doesn’t want to go to Federal prison, which is what could have happened if he’d told anyone that could do anything about the bug he’d found. Did that bug get fixed? Probably eventually, but not by my friend. This story isn’t extraordinary at all. Spend much time in the hacker and security scene, you’ll hear stories like this and worse. It’s hard to explain to regular people how much technology barely works, how much the infrastructure of our lives is held together by the IT equivalent of baling wire. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Radar/Dispossessor_Ransomware_Operation_Disrupted_by Authorities⠀⇛ To date, the group has made at least 43 victims in Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Croatia, Germany, Honduras, India, Peru, Poland, the UAE, and the UK. However, the group also focused on the US and authorities believe that many targeted organizations have not been identified yet. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Ransomware_Hits_Australian_Gold_Mining_Firm_Evolution Mining⠀⇛ In a filing (PDF) with the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), the company said that the attack was identified on August 8 and that it believes it has been contained. * ⚓ Los Angeles Times ☛ Editorial:_Full_accounting_of_ransomware_attack_on L.A._courts_needed⠀⇛ Six weeks later, the court was hit by a ransomware attack that infected its computer system with damaging software, forcing it to temporarily close. The new security systems spotted the breach early on Friday, July 19, and court personnel who began their workdays early found ransom notes on their devices before 7 a.m. that day. The court remained unavailable to the public until the following Tuesday, and even then, it operated at severely diminished capacity for several more days. ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 2594 ➮ Generation completed at 02:50, i.e. 30 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
