Stay tuned for some insights about hobbies, all things computers, projects, and a whole lot more. Have fun and happy holidays! * § Kernel Space⠀➾ o ⚓ LWN ☛ A_last_look_at_the_4.19_stable_series⠀⇛ The release of the 4.19.325 stable kernel update on December 5 marked the end of an era of sorts. This kernel had been supported for just over six years since its initial release in October 2018; over that time, 325 updates were released, adding 30,109 fixes. Few Linux kernels receive public support for so long; it is worth taking a look at this kernel's history to see how it played out. The 4.19 release is unique in that it was made in a time of uncertainty in the Linux community; Linus Torvalds had taken a break from his role to rethink how he worked within the community. Meanwhile, developers were working to adopt and understand the kernel's new code of conduct. That uncertainly is nearly forgotten now, though; the pace of development never slowed, and the new normal (quite similar to the old normal) was quickly established. But 4.19 remains special as the only mainline release that was not made by Torvalds. * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ When_It_Comes_To_DOS,_Don’t_Forget_DR-DOS.⠀⇛ Despite the latest and greatest Intel-derived computers having multi-core 64-bit processors and unimaginably fast peripherals, at heart they all still retain a compatibility that goes back  to the original 8086. This means that they can, in theory at least, still run MS- DOS. The venerable Microsoft 16-bit OS may now be long discontinued, but there is still enough need for DOS that the open-source FreeDOS remains in active development. The Register are here to remind us that there’s another open-source DOS on the block, and that it has a surprising history. * § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ o ⚓ Medevel ☛ Why_Supabase_is_the_Open-Source_Firebase_Alternative You_Need⠀⇛ Firebase has been a favorite backend solution for developers worldwide, including myself. It simplifies authentication, offers real-time capabilities, and scales seamlessly. o § Openwashing⠀➾ # ⚓ Open Source Initiative ☛ Open_Source_Hey_Hi_(AI)_and_policy from_the_perspective_of_East_Asia [Ed: Openwashing nonsense and slop]⠀⇛ This article is contributed by Amos Li from OCF, Che Wei Liu from g0v Jothon, and Peter H.R. Chu from COSCUP under CC BY 4.0. o § Education⠀➾ # ⚓ ShmooCon ☛ Final_Round…_–_ShmooCon⠀⇛ So, by our definition, we sold out in 7.87 seconds. At this point all tickets are accounted for and we take down the registration link. It does take longer for reservations to be completed. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 338 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/12/26/Linux_Mint_vs_Ubuntu_How_Different_Are_They_Really.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/12/26/Linux_Mint_vs_Ubuntu_How_Different_Are_They_Really.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Linux Mint vs. Ubuntu: How Different Are They, Really?⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Dec 26, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Linux_Mint_vs._Ubuntu⦈_ Quoting: Linux Mint vs. Ubuntu: How Different Are They, Really? — Having used both Linux Mint and Ubuntu, I have to say that the choice between them boils down to taste. I use Mint because I prefer the desktop environment and I like the way it manages software a little better. That said, when I use Ubuntu I’m not tearing my hair out, either, it’s just a little different. Because the differences between them boil down to how you interact with the GUI, I recommend you try both Ubuntu and Linux Mint out for a bit before making a decision. You can try them out using a virtual machine, or you can even just play around with them in your browser.

Support in the kernel was quickly added but it wasn't foolproof and issues abound. Sometimes Mesa or AMD- provided drivers would crash the system, other times you would cause on-screen artifacts. This was after you spent hours upgrading the kernel, drivers, and some other stuff with plenty of troubleshooting.

CHERIoT is a security-focused technology built on lowRISC’s RISC-V Ibex core, based on CHERI research from the University of Cambridge and SRI International. * ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Former_NSA_cyberspy's_not-so-secret_hobby_–_Xmas light_hacks⠀⇛ Next year, at the last Shmoocon, Joyce will reprise his talk and offer updates on how to turn your house into a light show that will either delight, or irritate, the neighbors. He spoke to The Register ahead of time to explain the hobby. * ⚓ Deseret Media ☛ Have_You_Seen_This?_Dallas_mansion_goes_viral_for Christmas_light_show⠀⇛ Some neighbors told station KCEN in Texas that it has taken them up to an hour to make their way through the heavy traffic on their street to get home. Dallas police have been called to help maintain traffic flow. In addition to the traffic, some neighbors say the lights themselves are a nuisance. At least one neighbor has resorted to turning on the sprinklers in their yard to coincide with the lights in an effort to get people off of their lawn. * ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ Did_you_dream_of_a_Raspberry_Pi_Christmas?⠀⇛ There are full instructions on how everything works if you know where to look.

When reflecting on ideas for a potential Advent series this year, I felt patterns would be a good challenge. I started to take notes on some patterns I had observed in software and design: define once, reference everywhere; autosuggestions; pre-rendering data; time since article published disclosure boxes, and more. * ⚓ Amos Wenger ☛ Catching_up_with_async_Rust⠀⇛ In December 2023, a minor miracle happened: async fn in traits shipped. * ⚓ LWN ☛ Facing_the_Git_commit-ID_collision_catastrophe⠀⇛ Commits in the Git source-code management system are identified by the SHA-1 hash of their contents — though the specific hash may change someday. The full hash is a 160-bit quantity, normally written as a 40-character hexadecimal string. While those strings are convenient for computers to work with, humans find them to be a bit unwieldy, so it is common to abbreviate the hash values to shorter strings. Geert Uytterhoeven recently proposed increasing the length of those abbreviated hashes as used in the kernel community, but the problem he was working to solve may not be as urgent as it seems. A hash, of course, is not the same as the data it was calculated from; whenever hashes are used to represent data, there is always the possibility of a collision — when two distinct sets of data generate the same hash value. A 160-bit hash space is large enough that the risk of accidental collisions is essentially zero; the risk of intentional (malicious) collisions is higher, but is still not something that most people worry about — for now. The hash space is large enough that even a relatively small portion of the hash value is still enough to uniquely identify a value. In a small Git repository, a 24-bit (six-digit) hash may suffice; as a repository grows, the number of digits required to unambiguously identify a commit will grow. In all cases, though, the shorter commit IDs are much easier for humans to deal with, and are almost universally used. * ⚓ LWN ☛ Emacs_code_completion_can_cause_compromise⠀⇛ Emacs has had a few bugs related to accidentally permitting the execution of untrusted code. Unfortunately, it seems as though another bug of that sort has appeared — and may be harder to patch, because the problem comes from the way Emacs handles expansion of Lisp macros in code being analyzed. The vulnerability is only practically exploitable in a non-default configuration, so not every Emacs user has something to worry about. The Emacs developers are reportedly working on a fix, but have not yet shared details about it. In the meantime, every Emacs version since at least 26.1 (released in May 2018) through the current development version is vulnerable. Eshel Yaron publicly disclosed the problem on November 27, although they reported it to the Emacs maintainers in August. The problem has two parts: expanding a macro in Emacs Lisp (Elisp) can run arbitrary code (including invoking a shell to run arbitrary commands), and common operations such as code- completion or jump-to-definition in Elisp files can require macro expansion. Since those operations are quite useful for reading and understanding code, many Emacs users have them enabled. * ⚓ LWN ☛ Using_Guile_for_Emacs⠀⇛ Emacs is, famously, an editor—perhaps far more—that is extensible using its own variant of the Lisp programming language, Emacs Lisp (or Elisp). This year's edition of EmacsConf, which is an annual "gathering" that has been held online for the past five years, had two separate talks on using a different variant of Lisp, Guile, for Emacs. Both projects would preserve Elisp compatibility, which is a must, but they would use Guile differently. The first talk we will cover was given by Robin Templeton, who described the relaunch of the Guile-Emacs project, which would replace the Elisp in Emacs with a compiler using Guile. A subsequent article will look at the other talk, which is about an Emacs clone written using Guile. LWN looked at Guile-Emacs way back in 2014, when Templeton had completed the last of several Google Summer of Code (GSoC) internships working on it. Around that time, Templeton had a fully functional prototype, but they moved on to other things until recently reviving the project. o § Python⠀➾ # ⚓ Niels Provos ☛ Building_a_Generative_AI_Search_Engine_with PlanAI⠀⇛ PlanAI is an open-source Python framework that simplifies building complex AI workflows. In this tutorial, we’ll implement a generative AI search engine similar to Perplexity using PlanAI’s task- based architecture and integrations. This tutorial is aimed at developers with a basic understanding of Python and general familiarity with AI concepts. We’ll be building a search engine that can answer complex questions by synthesizing information from multiple web sources. It’s “Perplexity-style” in that it provides a concise, AI-generated answer along with cited sources, much like the search engine Perplexity.ai. PlanAI makes building this type of application much easier by handling the complexities of task dependencies, data flow, caching, and integrating with various Large Language Models (LLMs). It even allows for human-in-the-loop input when automated methods fail, making it robust for real-world scenarios. o § Shell/Bash/Zsh/Ksh⠀➾ # ⚓ TecMint ☛ How_to_Use_sed_for_Dynamic_Number_Replacement_in Linux⠀⇛ This article will guide you through the basics of sed, explain how to use it for dynamic number replacement, and provide practical examples for beginners. # ⚓ TecMint ☛ How_to_Use_awk_to_Perform_Arithmetic_Operations in_Loops⠀⇛ This article will guide you through using awk for arithmetic operations in loops, using simple examples to make the concepts clear. o § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ # ⚓ LWN ☛ Providing_precise_time_over_the_network⠀⇛ Handling time in a networked environment is never easy. The Network Time Protocol (NTP) has been used to synchronize clocks across the internet for almost 40 years — but, as computers and networks get faster, the degree of synchronization it offers is not sufficient for some use cases. The Precision Time Protocol (PTP) attempts to provide more precise time synchronization, at the expense of requiring dedicated kernel and hardware support. The Linux kernel has supported PTP since 2011, but the protocol has recently seen increasing use in data centers. As PTP becomes more widespread, it may be useful to have an idea how it compares to NTP. PTP has several different possible configurations (called profiles), but it generally works in the same way in all cases: the computers participating in the protocol automatically determine which of them has the most stable clock, that computer begins sending out time information, and the other clocks on the network determine the networking delay between them in order to compensate for the delay. The different profiles tweak the details of these parts of the protocol in order to perform well on different kinds of networks, including in data centers, telecom infrastructure, industrial and automotive networks, and performance venues. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 909 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/12/26/Ruby_3_4_0_Released.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2024/12/26/Ruby_3_4_0_Released.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Ruby 3.4.0 Released⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Dec 26, 2024, updated Dec 26, 2024 We are pleased to announce the release of Ruby 3.4.0.

A subset of this data is reported to the SANS Internet Storm Center (ISC) where it can be used by anyone [3]. A common question that comes up from new users is whether there is any benefit to collecting PCAP data from the honeypots if the active services are already being logged. One example I often give of a useful benefit of having PCAPs is HTTP POST data. This data is not currently captured within the web honeypot logs, but can be seen within the PCAP data. * ⚓ Data Swamp ☛ Systemd_journald_cheatsheet⠀⇛ This blog post is part of a series that will be about Systemd ecosystem, today's focus is on journaling. * ⚓ Barry Kauler ☛ Fixed_bug_Daedalus_container_in_Easy_Daedalus⠀⇛ This bug should have been glaringly obvious, before Easy Daedalus 6.5 got released.

Various comparisons of hosted CMS solutions against all-in-one web builders have been made with varying degrees of accuracy. They all do a serviceable job when it comes to hosting a website. However, there are a few differences to be aware of. * ⚓ LWN ☛ WP_Engine_granted_preliminary_injunction_in_WordPress_case⠀⇛ Since we last looked at the WordPress dispute, WP Engine has sought a preliminary injunction against Automattic and its founder Matt Mullenweg to restore its access to WordPress.org, and more. The judge in the case granted a preliminary injunction on December 10. The case is, of course, of interest to users and developers working with WordPress—but it may also have implications for other open-source projects well beyond the WordPress community. To briefly recap: in September, Mullenweg began complaining publicly that WP Engine was not contributing enough to the WordPress project. Further, he claimed that WP Engine was infringing on WordPress trademarks, which are held by the WordPress Foundation but exclusively licensed to Automattic. He demanded that WP Engine pay a royalty, in the neighborhood of 8% its $400 million annual revenue, or $32 million a year. WP Engine did not go along with his demand. The companies traded cease‑and‑desist letters, and then WP Engine filed a 62‑page complaint against Automattic and Mullenweg in October. Since then, Mullenweg has escalated the use of commercial and community resources at his disposal to retaliate against WP Engine, its employees, and those expressing dissent too loudly in WordPress's community Slack instance. WP Engine's access—and therefore its customers' access—to WordPress.org has been blocked, which means they can no longer receive WordPress or plugin updates directly. Mullenweg also orchestrated a fork of WP Engine's Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) plugin, calling it Secure Custom Fields (SCF), on the pretext of correcting a security vulnerability. Forking is fair game, as the plugin is licensed under the GPLv2. However, SCF was also slotted into ACF's directory listing on WordPress.org, making it seem like SCF had been the plugin all along. Even the reviews for ACF were left in place. Users of the plugin that received updates directly from WordPress.org found it silently replaced with the fork. Ultimately, WP Engine asked Northern California United States District Court judge Araceli Martínez‑Olguín for a preliminary injunction against Mullenweg and Automattic, arguing that it would suffer irreparable harm if the defendants were allowed to continue acting to damage its business until trial. The company asked the court to compel the defendants to reactivate its employees' login credentials, return control of the Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) plugin in the WordPress.org directory, and other remedies. The hearing for the injunction was held on November 26. Blogger Samuel Sidler has posted an unofficial transcript of the hearing. ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 1423 ➮ Generation completed at 02:49, i.e. 15 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
