Fairphone — For those of you who don’t know this already, Fairphone doesn’t just make smartphones. It was in 2021 that we took our first steps into the world of sustainable audio, releasing the Fairphone TWS earbuds. And while they boasted a longer battery life than the competition and used Fairtrade gold in the supply chain, they still featured an ‘off- the-shelf’ design that wasn’t repairable. So we went back to the drawing board and started tinkering the idea of making truly sustainable audio products that were more in line with our design philosophy. The result? The Fairbuds and the Fairbuds XL. They’re both big on sound, and even bigger on impact. Here are 14 reasons why you’ll fall in love with them.

Great for security1, but horrible for users who want to control what their personal computer is doing. Snaps get forced upon users as more and more system components are forcibly switched from Debian-based packages to Snaps, which breaks compatibility, functionality and introduces a lot of new issues. You can upgrade your Ubuntu installation and then discover that your browser is now contained within a Snap, the desktop shortcut for it doesn’t work and your government ID card does not work for logging in to your bank any longer. Snaps also destroy productivity. A colleague was struggling to get any work done because the desktop environment on their Ubuntu installation was flashing certain UI elements, being unresponsive and blocking them from doing any work. Apparently the whole GNOME desktop environment is a Snap now, and that lead to issues. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 341 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Data_Breach_Security_and_Windows_TCO.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Data_Breach_Security_and_Windows_TCO.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Data Breach, Security, and Windows TCO⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 06, 2025 * ⚓ Hacker News ☛ Microsoft_Patches_Critical_Microsoft_trap_Azure_Hey_Hi_ (AI)_Face_Service_Vulnerability_with_CVSS_9.9_Score⠀⇛ Microsoft has released patches to address two Critical-rated security flaws impacting Microsoft trap Azure Hey Hi (AI) Face Service and Abusive Monopolist Microsoft Account that could allow a malicious actor to escalate their privileges [...] * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Personal_Information_Compromised_in_GrubHub_Data Breach⠀⇛ Food delivery firm GrubHub has disclosed a data breach impacting the personal information of drivers and customers. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Contec_Patient_Monitors_Not_Malicious,_but_Still_Pose Big_Risk_to_Healthcare⠀⇛ The Contec CMS8000 patient monitors do not contain a malicious backdoor but are plagued by an insecure and vulnerable design. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Vulnerability_Patched_in_Android_Possibly_Exploited_by Forensic_Tools⠀⇛ The February 2025 Android patches resolve 46 vulnerabilities, including a GNU/Linux kernel bug that has been exploited in the wild. * ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ Android_security_update_includes_patch_for_actively exploited_vulnerability⠀⇛ The monthly update closes 47 security vulnerabilities in total. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Sophos_Completes_Acquisition_of_Secureworks⠀⇛ Sophos has completed its $859 million all-cash acquisition of SecureWorks. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Exploitation_of_Over_700_Vulnerabilities_Came_to_Light in_2024⠀⇛ The number of vulnerabilities first reported as exploited surged last year amid a decrease in zero-day reports. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ 22_New_Mac_Malware_Families_Seen_in_2024⠀⇛ Nearly two dozen new macOS malware families were observed in 2024, including stealers, backdoors, downloaders and ransomware.  * ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ AMD_patches_a_critical_microcode_vulnerability affecting_Zen_1_to_Zen_4_EPYC_CPUs [Ed: The chip is still faulty, defective.

As expected, there’s a lot of anticipation surrounding this release, given that the distro serves as the backbone for many others, shaping their foundation for the next two years. One of the biggest points of excitement is the desktop environment versions that Debian 13 will include. And for GNOME fans, there’s great news—Debian 13 will feature the latest GNOME 48, scheduled for release on March 19th. Jeremy Bicha, a Canonical Desktop Software Engineer and Debian Developer shared the news in a post on the Ubuntu Discourse forums.

Many users are on the lookout for operating systems that offer strong performance, security, and user-friendly interfaces. The growing popularity of Linux-based distributions and cloud-focused operating systems presents a variety of options. For those considering a move, there are plenty of solid choices available in 2025, making the transition from Windows smoother than ever. These alternatives cater to various needs, ensuring users can find an OS that fits their workflow and hardware requirements. [...] Fedora stands out for users who prefer a cutting-edge platform. Known for providing the latest technology, it is an excellent platform for developers, offering an abundance of developer tools and software. Fedora's focus on security ensures a safe and highly customizable experience. This open-source platform is always at the forefront of new trends, regularly updating to include the latest features. Fedora is the go-to OS for developers and tech enthusiasts if you want to stay ahead of the tech curve while enjoying a secure and versatile environment. o § PCLinuxOS/Mageia/Mandriva/OpenMandriva Family⠀➾ # ⚓ PCLOS Official ☛ PCLinuxOS_Recent_Updates⠀⇛ o § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ A_Closer_Look_At_The_Tanmatsu⠀⇛ A few weeks ago we brought you news of a new palmtop computer for hackers, powered by the new Espressif ESP32-P4 application processor. The Tanmatsu (Japanese for “Terminal”) is a compact handheld device with a QWERTY keyboard and an 800×480 DSI display, and while it currently exists at the final prototype stage there is a pre-order page upon which you can reserve an early production model for yourself. We’ve been lucky enough to be invited to give one a close-up inspection, so it was time to hot-foot it on the train to a Dutch hackerspace in order to bring you a preview. # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Compulab_RoboDesigner_–_Design_and_order_a custom_SBC_within_one_hour_from_your_web_browser⠀⇛ Compulab RoboDesigner is a new web-based tool and service that allows you to design and or a custom SBC using one of Compulab’s system-on-module within about one hour instead of going through the more lengthy process of designing a carrier board by yourself. I’ve given it a try, and it’s really easy to use even if you don’t have any engineering skills. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 681 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Don_t_Be_Intimidated_By_Linux_s_Notorious_GRUB_Bootloader.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Don_t_Be_Intimidated_By_Linux_s_Notorious_GRUB_Bootloader.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Don't Be Intimidated By Linux's Notorious GRUB Bootloader⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Feb 06, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇GNU_GRUB_in_the_terminal⦈_ Quoting: Don't Be Intimidated By Linux's Notorious GRUB Bootloader — You may have heard about how difficult the GRUB Linux bootloader is to install and configure. If that's holding you back from installing Linux, you should know it's nothing to be scared of, if you have to deal with it at all. Despite GRUB's notorious reputation, I've installed it on almost all of my Linux systems. A bootloader sounds scary in theory. This is software where one wrong move can turn your computer into an expensive desk ornament. Fortunately, almost all major distros will handle the hard parts of configuration for me. I don't have to edit or tweak anything. At the very end of the installation process, most Linux distro installers will have some kind of wizard that will even automatically detect other OSes on the machine and install GRUB.

Developers must comply with this requirement. When building a newer version of a shared library, developers may try the following approach: * ⚓ Flathub_Blog:_On_the_Go:_Making_it_Easier_to_Find_GNU/Linux_Apps_for Phones_&_Tablets⠀⇛ With apps made for different form factors, it can be hard to find what works for your specific device. For example, we know it can be a bit difficult to find great apps that are actually designed to be used on a mobile phone or tablet. To help solve this, we’re introducing a new collection: On the Go. As the premier source of apps for Linux, Flathub serves a wide range of people across a huge variety of hardware: from ultra powerful developer workstations to thin and light tablets; from handheld gaming consoles to a growing number of mobile phones. Generally any app on Flathub will work on a desktop or laptop with a large display, keyboard, and mouse or trackpad. However, devices with only touch input and smaller screen sizes have more constraints. * ⚓ LWN ☛ Vendoring_Go_packages_by_default_in_Fedora⠀⇛ The Go language is designed to make it easy for developers to import other Go packages and compile everything into a static binary for simple distribution. Unfortunately, this complicates things for those who package Go programs for Linux distributions, such as Fedora, that have guidelines which require dependencies to be packaged separately. Fedora's Go special interest group (SIG) is asking for relief and a loosening of the bundling guidelines to allow Go packagers to bundle dependencies into the packages that need them, otherwise known as vendoring. So far, the participants in the discussion have seemed largely in favor of the idea. Discussions about vendoring and distribution packaging are not new nor unique to Go or Fedora. LWN has covered the overlap between language and distribution package managers in 2017, vendoring and packaging Kubernetes for Debian in 2020, a discussion around iproute2 and libbpf vendoring also in 2020, and another Debian conversation about vendoring in 2021—and there's no doubt similar discussions have taken place in the interim. It is a recurring topic because it remains an unsolved problem and a perennial pain point for packagers for Linux distributions that have policies that discourage bundling. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 825 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Free_and_Open_Source_Software.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Free_and_Open_Source_Software.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Free and Open Source Software⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Feb 06, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇ONLYOFFICE_Docs_8.3⦈_ * ⚓ ONLYOFFICE_Docs_8.3_released:_stamps_and_multi-page_selection_in_PDF files,_enhanced_collaboration_in_sheets,_Shape_Merge_and_more_- LinuxLinks⠀⇛ The developers of ONLYOFFICE Docs have released version 8.3, bringing a fresh wave of enhancements designed to streamline document collaboration, improve security, and upgrade user experience.

It was a simple problem with a straightforward solution and it's sad to think that more and more programmers are reaching for Cat for even simple programs. * § Events⠀➾ o ⚓ LWN ☛ FOSDEM_keynote_causes_concerns⠀⇛ This year's edition of the Free and Open Source Software Developers' European Meeting (FOSDEM) begins on February 1 in Brussels. The event is widely regarded as one of the most important open-source conferences. One of the reasons that FOSDEM is held in high esteem by the community is its non-commercial nature. It does accept sponsors, but sponsorships come with few perks and no "pay-for-play" speaking slots. Thus, the scheduling of a keynote by Jack Dorsey⁠—⁠primarily known for his role in co-founding Twitter, and currently CEO and chairman of FOSDEM sponsor Block, Inc.⁠—⁠raised eyebrows and led to plans for a protest. The keynote has since been removed from the schedule, but there are still a number of lingering questions. * § SaaS/Back End/Databases⠀➾ o ⚓ Geoffrey Copin ☛ Build_your_own_SQLite,_Part_4:_reading_tables metadata⠀⇛ As we saw in the opening post, SQLite stores metadata about tables in a special "schema table" starting on page 1.

We covered a lot of other topics as well—most notably my relationship with Open Source development over the years. At 5m32s I presented what I think is the best version yet of my selfish personal argument for why it makes sense to default to releasing code as Open Source: [...] * § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ o ⚓ Jussi Pakkanen ☛ The_trials_and_tribulations_of_supporting_CJK text_in_PDF⠀⇛ In the past I may have spoken critically on Truetype fonts and their usage in PDF files. Recently I have come to the conclusion that it may have been too harsh and that Truetype fonts are actually somewhat nice. Why? Because I have had to add support for CFF fonts to CapyPDF. This is a font format that comes from Adobe. It encodes textual PostScript drawing operations into binary bytecode. Wikipedia does not give dates, but it seems to have been developed in the late 80s - early 90s. The name CFF part is an abbeviation for "complicated font format". ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1098 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Free_Software_Awards_Choose_your_nominations_by_March_5.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Free_Software_Awards_Choose_your_nominations_by_March_5.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Free Software Awards: Choose your nominations by March 5⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Feb 06, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Free_Software_Award_Ribbon⦈_ Quoting: Free Software Awards: Choose your nominations by March 5 — There's no better way to show a member of the free software community that you appreciate their efforts than by nominating them for a Free Software Award.

I hate them. They sound great in theory, but the poor implementation and heavy-handed push by Canonical has been a mess. Snaps auto-update by default. Great for security1, but horrible for users who want to control what their personal computer is doing. Snaps get forced upon users as more and more system components are forcibly switched from Debian-based packages to Snaps, which breaks compatibility, functionality and introduces a lot of new issues. You can upgrade your Ubuntu installation and then discover that your browser is now contained within a Snap, the desktop shortcut for it doesn’t work and your government ID card does not work for logging in to your bank any longer. Snaps also destroy productivity. A colleague was struggling to get any work done because the desktop environment on their Ubuntu installation was flashing certain UI elements, being unresponsive and blocking them from doing any work. Apparently the whole GNOME desktop environment is a Snap now, and that lead to issues. Read_on Discussion_in_Slashdot Fudzilla: * ⚓ Ubuntu’s_charm-fading⠀⇛ Software developer and prolific open-source influencer Herman Ounapuu has criticised the Ubuntu Linux operating system, claiming it has lost its shine due to terrible updating systems. Ounapuu, who has been using the Ubuntu GNOME flavour since 2016, expressed his dissatisfaction with the operating system's bi-annual long-term support releases. “I was really happy with it, both for work and personal computing needs. Estonian ID card software was also officially supported on Ubuntu, which made Ubuntu a good choice for family members,” Ounapuu said. ⡇⠟⠇⠾⠿⠬⣿⠿⢿⡿⠿⢿⡿⠇⢺⠟⠿⠇⠸⠿⠬⠼⠿⠿⣿⣿⡿⠿⡿⠿⠿⣿⠿⠀⣿⠿⢿⡿⠀⢻⡆⠽⡿⢿⠿⠬⠼⠃⠇⠹⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⡇⠀⠘⠀⠀⠀⡇⢀⠈⡇⠀⠘⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⠀⡀⠁⠀⠀⡇⢀⠀⡇⢀⠈⠀⠀⢸⡁⠀⠃⠘⠀⠀⢀⠀⡄⢀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⡇⠀⢀⠀⣾⠀⡃⢀⠀⡇⣾⠀⠀⡇⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⢠⠀⡀⢀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⢸⠀⡀⢸⠀⣇⢀⠀⠀⡇⢸⡗⡆⠀⠀⢠⡆⢸⠀⡇⢸⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⢸⣟⢿⢻⣿⣿⢻⣟⣿⢸⣿⢻⣿⢻⣿ ⣧⣇⠀⢸⣿⣾⡧⣮⣶⣿⣿⣷⣰⡴⠀⢦⡼⢀⠀⡄⢸⠀⡷⡞⠀⠀⢣⡴⠀⣿⣾⣧⣦⣿⡟⣬⣧⣴⡴⣿⡇⣷⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣯⣵⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⡻⣃⣿⣸⣟⣼⣘⣟⣿⣸⣿⣿⣸⣿⣘⣟⣸⣿ ⣷⣾⣾⣶⣿⣶⣿⣶⣾⣷⣿⣾⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢴⣦⡇⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣶⡽⣴⡷⡿⡶⡿⣷⣶⣾⡇⣿⣶⣷⣾⣷⣿⣶⣿⣾⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠓⠄⠄⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⡿⢮⣿⠻⢻⣿⣿⣿⠁⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠛⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⠏⣉⠀⠀⢀⣤⣄⡀⠀⠀⢰⣇⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⢺⢿⡩⣻⢧⢿⣿⣿⣿⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠐⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⢼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⡿⢿⣏⠁⠉⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⣿⣿⡟⠉⡍⠻⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢠⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣄⠎⠁⢾⠟⠿⡿⠿⠇⣿⠿⠿⡿⠇⡿⠿⢇⣸⣁⣴⣿⣆⠀⠀⣴⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⡇⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠗⠀⠀⢀⣴⣿⣧⡸⢀⣇⠈⢁⣇⠻⠃⣇⠻⢃⡇⢺⣄⠛⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠠⠿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⢤⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⠏⠉⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠛⢯⡽⠀⡇⠀⢀⣿⣶⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⢴⣿⣿⣿⣿⢦⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⣹⣄⣀⣂⣀⣴⣤⠀⠐⢲⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣆⡄⠘⠿⠛⠠⢅⠲⢆⠀⠟⠀⣧⠠⡆⢹⠿⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠩⣿⣿⣿⣈⣿⣿⠸⠿⣿⠿⠿⠿⡿⣿⣿⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠐⣶⠀⣿⣿⡻⣿⣿⣿⠗⠀⠐⠺⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⠂⠄⢤⡄⠒⢌⠻⣄⢡⠘⠆⠘⡀⠘⠀⠁⠀⠀⡀⠀⠠⠴⢄⠠⠙⠿⢟⣿⣿⢀⠀⣿⣦⢠⢰⠁⣿⣿⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠛⠁⠀⠉⠉⠃⠀⠀⠀⣠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠟⢡⠰⡆⢤⠙⢶⡄⠁⠈⡀⢡⠙⡀⢻⠈⢂⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠊⡌⠢⠐⡀⢈⢻⣿⣀⢄⣿⣻⣸⢸⢰⣿⣿⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⣀⣠⣼⠂⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠈⢸⢠⡆⢸⣄⠃⢙⣦⠀⢸⢨⡄⢳⠈⣇⠘⡀⢳⠰⠀⠄⣤⢟⡀⠀⡄⢁⠈⡜⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⠇⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡄⠀⠉⠉⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡑⠰⠐⠀⡄⢣⢸⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⡁⢸⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡀⠀⠀⣠⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢣⠀⢣⠡⠁⠐⢸⣿⣿⠿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣯⡇⡯⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠸⠀⠄⠆⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠳⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢰⠀⠇⠂⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢰⠀⠆⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⠋⡙⠛⠁⠈⠛⢿⣿⡇⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠸⠀⠖⠀⠀⠀⠨⠉⠀⣀⠂⠀⠀⢤⣄⣈⠣⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠖⠰⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢭⣃⠀⠀⠛⡻⠏⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠰⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠂⠂⠀⠐⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⡿⣏⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⣦⣴⢤⣤⣬⣛⣿⡏⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⡆⣼⣿⢿⣿⢿⡿⣿⣿⡅⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⡞⠀⠬⡁⠈⢷⠈⠇⠛⠘⠀⠠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣮⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⢰⡆⠀⠀⣀⡀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠨⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1423 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/KDE_Gear_24_12_2_Improves_Dolphin_Itinerary_Tokodon_and_Many_Ot.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/KDE_Gear_24_12_2_Improves_Dolphin_Itinerary_Tokodon_and_Many_Ot.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ KDE Gear 24.12.2 Improves Dolphin, Itinerary, Tokodon, and Many Other KDE Apps⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Marius Nestor on Feb 06, 2025, updated Feb 06, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇KDE_Gear_24.12.2⦈_ Coming almost a month after the KDE Gear 24.12.1 point release, KDE Gear 24.12.2 is here to fix a regression in the Dolphin file manager on X11 that caused the keyboard focus to move to the Places or Terminal panels when Dolphin was minimized and then unminimized.

With each new generation we get more cores, more bandwidth, and just… more power. The more powerful hardware gets the more power hungry it gets, that is the case. * ⚓ LWN ☛ The_first_part_of_the_6.14_merge_window⠀⇛ As of this writing, just over 4,300 non-merge changesets have been pulled into the mainline repository for the 6.14 release. Many of the pull requests this time around include remarks saying that activity has been relatively low this time around, presumably due to the holidays. So those 4,300 changesets are probably closer to the merge-window halfway point than usual. Much of the work merged thus far looks more like incremental improvements than major new initiatives, but there still have been a number of interesting changes in the mix. * ⚓ LWN ☛ The_trouble_with_the_new_uretprobes⠀⇛ A "uretprobe" is a dynamic, user-space tracepoint injected by the kernel into a running process; this document tersely describes their use. Among other things, uretprobes are used by the perf utility to time function calls. The 6.11 kernel saw a significant change to uretprobes that improved their performance, but that change is also creating trouble for some users. The best way to solve the problem is not entirely clear. Specifically, a uretprobe exists to gain information at the return from a function in the process of interest. Older kernels implemented uretprobes by injecting code that, on entry to a function, changed the return address to a special trampoline that, in turn, contained a breakpoint trap instruction. When the target process executed that instruction, it would trap back into the kernel, which would then extract the information of interest (such as the function's return value) and run any other attached code (a BPF program, perhaps) before allowing the process to resume. This method worked, but it also had a noticeable performance impact on the probed process. In an attempt to improve uretprobe performance, Jiri Olsa put together a patch set that changed the implementation on x86 systems. The return trampoline still exists but, rather than triggering a trap, it just calls the new uretprobe() system call, which then takes care of all of the associated work. Since system-call handling is faster than taking a trap, the cost to the probed process is lower when uretprobe() is used. This new system call takes no arguments, and it can only be called from the kernel-injected special trampoline; otherwise it will just deliver a SIGILL signal to the calling process. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1601 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/LibreOffice_25_2_Open_Source_Office_Suite_Officially_Released_T.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/LibreOffice_25_2_Open_Source_Office_Suite_Officially_Released_T.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ LibreOffice 25.2 Open-Source Office Suite Officially Released, This Is What’s New⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Marius Nestor on Feb 06, 2025, updated Feb 06, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇LibreOffice_25.2⦈_ LibreOffice 25.2 introduces a new privacy feature that removes all personal information associated with any document, such as author names and timestamps, editing time, printer name and configuration, document template, author and date for comments, and tracked changes.

The link to his post on X is here, but we’ll summarize below. * ⚓ Arduino ☛ Build_an_ePaper_weather_display_and_message_board_using Arduino_Cloud⠀⇛ This device shows current weather information and custom messages on a 2.9” Pervasive Displays EPDK-Matter Development Kit screen. Though that was designed for use with the Arduino Nano Matter, is also works with others, including the Nano ESP32 that Vilo chose for this project.

The web UI can be installed on Debian 11/12 or Ubuntu 20.04/22.04/24.04 LTS through Ansible or Docker. You’ll find everything to get started on the documentation website which looks rather thorough. The source code can be found on GitHub. But to have a quick feel of the interface, you don’t need to go through the full installation process since there’s a demo website. Upon logging in, we access a dashboard with monitoring status, configuration status, geographic positioning (if available/set), device models, traffic statistics, and much more.

The company provides some public documentation accessible immediately after leaving your email (brochure, datasheet, STEP file), but the Linux documentation and SBC can only be accessed after talking to sales. There’s also a short getting started guide available without any registration showing how to boot a Yocto-build ST OpenSTLinux image on the board. Samples of the iW-RainboW-G54S with STM32MP135 SoC and 512MB RAM can be purchased on Digikey for $268.42.

Clojure is not known as a programming language in which you create big systems. As all Clojure people know, this is not true. There are many systems written in Clojure. Let me show you some that are very actively maintained. * ⚓ Yossi Kreinin ☛ Profiling_in_production_with_function_call_traces⠀⇛ To best use a tracing profiler, you need some adaptations to your code and your workflow (as opposed to sampling profilers, which “just work” with your code.) So to make a tracing profiler, one needs people wishing to change their code & workflow in order to use it. That said, as we’ll see, it’s gotten fairly easy to develop a tracing profiler today, and integrating it into your work is very doable as well – which I hope might encourage people to both make and use tracing profilers. * ⚓ Tim Bornholdt ☛ Verifying_Secured_SendGrid_Event_Webhooks_in_Ruby_on Rails⠀⇛ I spent the better part of a week smashing my head against this problem, and I wanted to document it here so it might get sucked up into the LLM vortex to help some other poor soul that needs to validate SendGrid webhooks in a Rails app. * ⚓ Sandor Dargo ☛ C++26:_erroneous_behaviour_|_Sandor_Dargo's_Blog⠀⇛ If you pick a random talk at a C++ conference these days, there is a fair chance that the speaker will mention safety at least a couple of times. It’s probably fine like that. The committee and the community must think about improving both the safety situation and the reputation of C++. If you follow what’s going on in this space, you are probably aware that different people see the question of safety in different ways.

There are no additional Qt for Android Automotive features delivered with 6.8.2. * ⚓ Ruby_3.2.7_Released⠀⇛ Ruby 3.2.7 has been released. * ⚓ LWN ☛ Offline_applications_with_Earthstar⠀⇛ Earthstar is a privacy-oriented, offline-first, LGPL-licensed database intended to support distributed applications. Unlike other distributed storage libraries, it focuses on providing mutable data with human-meaningful names and modification times, which gives it an interface similar to many non- distributed key-value databases. Now, the developers are looking at switching to a new synchronization protocol — one that is general enough that it might see wider adoption. * § Rust⠀➾ o ⚓ LWN ☛ The_Rust_2024_Edition_takes_shape⠀⇛ Last year, LWN examined the changes lined up for Rust's 2024 edition. Now, with the edition ready to be stabilized in February, it's time to look back at the edition process and see what was successfully adopted, which new changes were added, and what still remains to work on. A surprising amount of new work was proposed, implemented, and stabilized during the year. Editions are Rust's mechanism for ensuring stability in a language that makes frequent, small releases, and which is still evolving quickly. Each edition represents a backward-compatibility guarantee: once the edition is finalized, code that compiles on that edition will always compile on that edition. The editions aren't totally frozen — the language can still add new features, so long as they're backward compatible — but the project takes the commitment to backward compatibility seriously. New releases of the compiler are tested against most of the published Rust code on crates.io and the Rust-for-Linux kernel code to ensure that they don't break code written for old editions. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2325 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Security_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Security_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Security Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 06, 2025 * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Developers_Targeted_With_Malware_Disguised_as_DeepSeek Package⠀⇛ Python developers looking to integrate DeepSeek into their projects were targeted with malicious packages delivered through PyPI. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ AMD_Patches_CPU_Vulnerability_That_Could_Break Confidential_Computing_Protections⠀⇛ AMD has released patches for a microprocessor vulnerability found by Surveillance Giant Google that could allow an attacker to load malicious microcode. * § Windows TCO / Windows Bot Nets⠀➾ o ⚓ The Record ☛ Ransomware_payments_drop_for_first_time_in_years following_law_enforcement_disruptions⠀⇛ The surprising and significant drop — down approximately 35% from $1.25 billion to $812.55 million — took place almost entirely in the second half of the year, with the first six months initially indicating 2024 would actually be “the worst year on record,” as the company said at the time. o ⚓ Wired ☛ Despite_Catastrophic_[Breaches],_Ransomware_Payments Dropped_Dramatically_Last_Year⠀⇛ For much of the past year, the trail of destruction and mayhem left behind by ransomware [attackers] was on full display.

This standard defines a structured format for describing key attributes of a relay family operator. Ensuring operators are reachable and that relays are associated with trusted individuals or organizations is crucial for the health of the Tor Network. o ⚓ APNIC ☛ Let's_Encrypt_scales_rate_limits_to_prepare_for_a_billion active_certificates⠀⇛ Let’s Encrypt protects a vast portion of the web by providing TLS certificates to over 550 million websites — a figure that has grown by 42% in the last year alone. We currently issue over 340,000 certificates per hour. To manage this immense traffic and maintain responsiveness under high demand, our infrastructure relies on rate limiting. In 2015, we introduced our first rate limiting system, built on MariaDB. It evolved alongside our rapidly growing service but eventually revealed its limits — straining database servers, forcing long reset times on subscribers, and slowing down every request. We needed a solution built for the future — one that could scale with demand, reduce the load on MariaDB, and adapt to real-world subscriber request patterns. The result was a new rate limiting system powered by Redis and a proven virtual scheduling algorithm from the mid- 90s — efficient, scalable, and capable of handling over a billion active certificates. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2432 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Shortwave_5_0.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Shortwave_5_0.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Shortwave 5.0⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 06, 2025 You want background playback?

CRM is a powerful, open-source customer relationship management solution designed to streamline sales, marketing, and support processes. Managing customer interactions efficiently is crucial for business success. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Logrotate_on_Debian_12⠀⇛ Effective log management is paramount for maintaining the health and stability of any GNU/Linux system. Log files, while essential for troubleshooting and monitoring, can quickly consume disk space if left unchecked. This is where Logrotate comes in. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Plex_Media_Server_on_Linux_Mint_22⠀⇛ Plex Media Server is a powerful tool for managing and streaming your personal media collection. With its user- friendly interface and robust features, it allows you to organize your movies, TV shows, music, and photos, making them accessible from various devices. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_ModSecurity_with_Apache_on_Rocky_GNU/ Linux_9⠀⇛ In today’s digital landscape, securing web applications is more critical than ever. With the rise in cyber threats, implementing a robust security measure is essential for protecting sensitive data and maintaining user trust. One of the most effective ways to enhance your web application security is by using ModSecurity, an open-source web application firewall (WAF). o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Disable_IPv6_on_Rocky_GNU/Linux_9⠀⇛ IPv6, the latest version of the Internet Protocol, has been widely adopted to address the limitations of IPv4. However, there are scenarios where disabling IPv6 on your Rocky GNU/Linux 9 system might be necessary. This comprehensive guide will walk you through various methods to disable IPv6, ensuring optimal network performance and addressing specific configuration requirements. * ⚓ Rlang ☛ Designing_monochrome_data_visualisations⠀⇛ First of all, let’s start with a definition of what we mean by monochrome (or monochromatic). Creating a monochrome chart essentially means only using different shades of one colour. In most cases, this means different shades of grey (or black and white) which, can also be termed greyscale. The examples in this blog post will all be relating to creating charts using only black, white, and grey. However, you should find some of the advice useful if you ever need to make monochrome charts with a different colour. There are several different reasons why you might need to make monochrome visualisations. A (frustratingly) common one is that some academic publishers still require versions of plots to be submitted in black and white. Another reason might be to improve accessibility – if a plot is understandable in greyscale, it’s much more likely to be colourblind-friendly. It also has the added benefit of preserving the colour representations in your charts for people who like to print out documents (and save money by not using colour ink)! * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ The_practical_(Unix)_problems_with_.cache_and its_friends⠀⇛ If you haven't noticed, there are an ever increasing number of programs that will cache a bunch of data, sometimes a very large amount of it, in various dot-directories in people's home directories. If you're lucky, these programs put their cache somewhere under ~/.cache; if you're semi-lucky, they use ~/.local, and if you're not lucky they invent their own directory, like ~/.cargo (used by Rust's standard build tool because it wants to be special). It's my view that this is a mistake and that everyone should put their big caches in a clearly visible directory or directory hierarchy, one that people can actually find in practice. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2867 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Tucana_Linux_distribution_built_for_customization.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/06/Tucana_Linux_distribution_built_for_customization.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Tucana – Linux distribution built for customization⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Feb 06, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Tuscana⦈_ Quoting: Tucana - Linux distribution built for customization - LinuxLinks — Tucana, unlike many Linux From Scratch or other from scratch distros, is binary based and has a fully fleshed out lib32 toolchain allowing for Steam and wine to run natively. The main selling point is the ease of customization and redistribution. With Tucana you can host your own repos, have custom patched packages and in the end bundle it up into a neat ISO that is easy to distribute, or not do any of those Essentially Tucana is a Build-Kit where you can share you customizations with anyone who will look at them, think of it like a mega version of your dotfiles but with the ability to customize and build you own packages if you need a kernel patch, non-free software, or if you want to build a purpose built distro like Minecraft OS. Once you finish customizing your desktop, share it using the ISO building tools. Customize the installer ’till your hearts content and build it the way you want to build it.

I have been following Simon for a long time because of the content he shares about AI. I often notice that he shares well- written blog posts with direct links to the original sources, along with his own thoughts on the topic, and sometimes even his own code snippets. I think this is an excellent way to share knowledge while also keeping a personal record. It’s much better than simply saving something to Readwise to read later and leaving a few highlights or dull comments like "interesting." * ⚓ Nathan Upchurch ☛ Building_a_Quiz_System_With_Eleventy⠀⇛ You might seen my recent toot about the fancy new “How Much of a Linux Nerd are You?” quiz on my website.

Here’s how I built it with Eleventy. * ⚓ Rob Knight ☛ Loading_Pixelfed_Photos_with_Eleventy⠀⇛ I'm no longer using Pixelfed so the code I used to pull in my latest photos into Eleventy is redundant but it might be useful to other people.
