I did not start Linux-libre (Jeff Moe did), there's been little room for contributors (programming the bots doesn't take so much effort), and we follow the upstream release schedule as closely as we can. More importantly, I care a lot about making sure Linux-libre is released in accordance with the values of Free Software. He, despite having identified with Free Software till around mid nineties, doesn't seem to mind that bits and pieces of Linux don't fit in with the values of our movement, or even with the definition adopted by the dissident community in which Linux is mistaken as an icon and a shining example of something that it actually isn't. Here I'm not talking about people who refer to the GNU Operating System as Linux, I'm talking about there being parts of the kernel Linux for which no source code is available, and whose included binaries are distributed under obnoxious licenses that prohibit modification or even reverse engineering. These parts, and therefore the whole containing them, are not Free Software, and are not Open-Source Software either. I kid you not: the famous package distributed by Mr Torvalds, held as the canonical example of Open Source Software, does not meet the definition of Open Source Software. Open Source misses the point, but it seems to do so with a vengeance and with intent. Its exploitation resembles some faith-based businesses (fake churches) in that they are about getting well-meaning, faithful people to contribute under false pretenses: freedom-loving people are misled into contributing their time, loyalty and effort to advance projects that try to be perceived as having a commitment to freedom, despite taking positions and making decisions that progressively drive users away from freedom.

Despite loving SteamOS, its potential, and what it represents, here's why I won't install SteamOS on my gaming PC any time soon. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Team_Fortress_2_major_update_released_and_source available_for_modders_via_the_Source_SDK⠀⇛ It wasn't just Counter-Strike: Source and Day of Defeat: Source that received big updates today, as Valve also published a new update for Team Fortress 2 along with updating the Source SDK to include TF2! This is a big one for modders, since you now have the source available for TF2! * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Counter-Strike:_Source_and_Day_of_Defeat:_Source_get major_updates_with_64bit_support⠀⇛ A nice surprise for some classic Valve games today with multiple titles like Counter-Strike: Source and Day of Defeat: Source getting major updates. Not many developers continue supporting their games this long after release! Although, Valve do have a lot of resources to do such a thing thanks to how popular Steam is. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Broken_Shell_is_the_cutest_looking_love_story_adventure of_two_little_hermit_crabs⠀⇛ You ever look at a game and just think - "wow, this looks truly lovely"? That's the feeling I got from seeing Broken Shell and I can't wait to see it release. It's an in-development cozy casual adventure game from Foggy Studio, with some artwork and themes that really do just look wonderful. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Cropdeck_blends_farming_and_deckbuilders_together_to make_a_wonderful_looking_mix⠀⇛ Just when you think you've seen it all, along comes Cropdeck. Described by the developer as the "ultimate farming roguelite deckbuilder" and it really looks quite charming. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ PlayStation_3_emulator_RPCS3_expands_online_play_for fighting_games_with_RPCN_v1.4⠀⇛ Another big update has been released for RPCN, the open source online matchmaking server for PlayStation 3 emulator RPCS3.

In fact, Miguel has been part of Bootlin for quite some time already. He completed his final-year internship with us from March to August 2024, working on the Zephyr open-source real-time operating system. This project contributed to his successful graduation from Sorbonne University. * ⚓ LWN ☛ Stable_kernel_6.12.15⠀⇛ The 6.12.15 stable kernel update has been fast-tracked to release.

In the 1940s, cigarette companies would actively use doctors in their advertising campaigns, leading to such classics as ‘More doctors smoke Camels’. If you went by the ads, cigarettes were physician- tested and approved. * ⚓ Linux Gizmos ☛ ADLINK_Introduces_OSM_MTK510_Featuring_MediaTek_Genio 510_COM_with_Yocto_Linux_Compatibility⠀⇛ ADLINK Technology Inc. has introduced the OSM-MTK510, a compact and rugged computer-on-module based on the MediaTek Genio 510 platform.

Instead of drawing them up in a CAD program, one writes a script that defines the required geometry. All that is made a little easier with the Belfry OpenSCAD Library (BOSL2). * ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ RP2350_now_available_at_JLCPCB⠀⇛ RP2350 is our latest high-performance, secure microcontroller, offering unparalleled levels of processing and flexibility at its very affordable price point.

The spindle/workpiece spin and the carriage moves linearly at a precise amount per turn of the spindle. That linear movement is the thread pitch. But this process usually requires several passes to reach the final depth, which presents a problem: how do you start each thread at the exact same point each time?

Ubuntu — The power-profiles-daemon is what those of who run Ubuntu (or Linux Mint 22.1, which finally added PPD) interact with when we switch power mode on the fly, be it using a GUI button, setting, or toggle, or the command line. The latest 0.30 release adds a couple of notable changes, though nothing as substantive (to end-users) as the various AMD-targeted tune-ups the previous release delivered. Still, improvements are improvements. Some of the ones present in v0.30 could allow advanced users, distro builders, and canny community folks to exert more control over power demand to eke out more performance or more efficiency. PPD v0.30 supports turning upower on or off at runtime. This will let desktop environments decide whether to allow actions and profiles to be adjusted dynamically based on events, such as hitting a certain battery level or a power adapter being connected.

But does it happen exactly at the equinox? I could read up on all the gory details of this, or I could just make some plots. * ⚓ Chris Wellons ☛ Meet_the_new_xxd_for_w64devkit:_rexxd⠀⇛ xxd is a versatile hexdump utility with a “reverse” feature, originally written between 1990–1996. The Vim project soon adopted it, and it’s lived there ever since. If you have Vim, you also have xxd. Its primary use cases are (1) the basis for a hex editor due to its -r reverse option that can unhexdump its previous output, and (2) a data embedding tool for C and C++ (-i). The former provides Vim’s rudimentary hex editor functionality. The second case is of special interest to w64devkit: xxd -i appears in many builds that embed arbitrary data. It’s important that w64devkit has a compatible implementation, and a freshly rewritten, improved xxd, rexxd, now replaces the original xxd (as xxd). * ⚓ Daniel Stenberg ☛ Changing_every_line_three_times⠀⇛ It means that every line in the product source code tree have by now been edited on average 3.5 times. It might been that we have written bad code and need to fix many bugs or that go back to refactor and improve existing lines frequently. Probably both. Of course, some lines are edited and changed far more often than others, the 3.5 is just an average. We have some source lines left in the code that was brought before year 2000 and have not been changed since. * ⚓ Rlang ☛ blocklength_0.2.0⠀⇛ I’m excited to announce that blocklength 0.2.0 is now available on CRAN! blocklength is designed to be used with block- bootstrap procedures and makes it quick and easy to select a block-length quantitatively. This significant update includes a new block-length selection algorithm by Lahiri, Furukawa, and Lee (2007), the nonparametric plug-in “NPPI” method. * ⚓ Rlang ☛ Creating_R,_Python,_Stata,_and_Julia_tutorial_worksheets_(with and_without_solutions)_using_Quarto⠀⇛ I regularly need to produce exercises/tutorials for my students. One fantastic feature of R Markdown is that it allows me to create one R Markdown document which can be rendered to both the question document and the solutions document. This is achieved by toggling knitr chunk options such as eval, echo, and include, and using asis chunks to include the text for the solutions. I wrote a little package, knitexercise to help with this. * ⚓ Julia Programming Language ☛ Vendor-Neutral_GPU_Programming_in_Julia: Unlocking_Portability_with_KernelAbstractions.jl⠀⇛ The ideal solution is a vendor-agnostic GPU programming model, where the same code can run efficiently across different GPUs without modification. This is exactly what KernelAbstractions.jl provides. * ⚓ The New Stack ☛ Static_vs._Dynamic_Content:_Which_Should_Developers Favor?⠀⇛ Static content delivers lightning-fast speeds and rock-solid reliability, while dynamic content enables personalization, interactivity and real-time updates. But which approach is best for your project? This article will discuss the differences between static and dynamic content, explore their real-world applications, and examine how they integrate with modern cloud computing. Whether you’re optimizing for speed, flexibility or global reach, understanding these approaches will empower you to make smarter development choices. * ⚓ Rachel ☛ Mangled_names_get_me_to_open_my_eyes_a_little⠀⇛ Hanlon's Razor falls down in this kind of environment. It's lazy. I have definitely made this mistake. You need not go particularly far back in my posts to find that I wrote my "honest troubleshooting code of conduct" which incorporates exactly that. Actual life experience now says that leaning on that is the lazy way out, and that you actually have to do some damn work to figure out exactly what's going on. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1135 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/19/Reproducible_openSUSE_RBOS_Project_Hits_Milestone.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/19/Reproducible_openSUSE_RBOS_Project_Hits_Milestone.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Reproducible-openSUSE (RBOS) Project Hits Milestone⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 19, 2025 * ⚓ OpenSUSE ☛ Reproducible-openSUSE_(RBOS)_Project_Hits_Milestone⠀⇛ Reproducible builds ensure software can be rebuilt in an identical, bit-for-bit manner anywhere at any time using the same tools.

Handbook ☛ Add/Remove_Ubuntu_“Proposed”_Repository_for_Testing Updates⠀⇛ This tutorial shows how to add (or remove) the “proposed” repository to install (or downgrade) the pre-released packages/ updates in Ubuntu. As you may know, Ubuntu has an area called proposed for updates that are being tested before publication. * ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ Stopping_FreeBSD_jails_in_reverse_order⠀⇛ Today I learned that you can stop FreeBSD jails in reverse order from when they were started. * ⚓ Net2 ☛ Repeat_GNU/Linux_Commands_Every_X_Seconds_for_Real-Time Monitoring,_Automation_&_Precise_Scheduling⠀⇛ Linux administrators and power users often need to run commands repeatedly. Whether you’re monitoring system performance, tracking log changes, or automating routine tasks, the ability to repeat a command at a specified interval is essential. * ⚓ Net2 ☛ Fix_Broken_Packages_in_Ubuntu_24.04:_Step-by-Step_Guide_to Package_Repair_&_Removal⠀⇛ Encountering difficulties while trying to uninstall a package in Ubuntu? This concise guide offers helpful tips using Ubuntu’s built-in tools to assist you in removing potentially problematic packages on your Debian-based operating system. Let’s begin. * ⚓ Curt Merrill ☛ Light-up_map⠀⇛ I assembled the SVG in Affinity Designer. It took a couple of tries to get everything arranged so that it would fit within the Glowforge’s work area, and then a couple more tries to make sure the different elements were in proper layers for the Glowforge software to differentiate between cutting (for the holes) and etching (for the map and labels). * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ More_potential_problems_for_people_with_older browsers⠀⇛ I've written before that keeping your site accessible to very old browsers is non-trivial because of issues like them not necessarily supporting modern TLS. However, there's another problem that people with older browsers are likely to be facing, unless circumstances on the modern web change. I said on the Fediverse: [...] * ⚓ James Stanley ☛ James_Stanley_-_The_world's_stupidest_AppImage⠀⇛ I've been trying to make some changes to FreeCAD recently, and as part of that I've been building FreeCAD inside a distrobox so as not to clutter up my main filesystem with FreeCAD's extensive build dependencies. However I found that once I had compiled the binary, it didn't work properly when running inside the distrobox. The GUI would load up, but anything involving a 3d display just didn't appear. * ⚓ Hiro ☛ The_Photo_Challenge⠀⇛ Each Monday, for five weeks, I'll email you a different essential composition technique to focus on while taking photos that week. I'll include a short write-up introducing the technique, maybe give some famous examples, and hopefully provide a little inspiration to go make some great pictures. It doesn't matter if you're taking your Hasselblad on an Arctic safari, or just taking an iPhone shot of your coffee in the morning. You should be able to find easy ways to put these things to use and hopefully sharpen your skills set along the way! * ⚓ APNIC ☛ Building_a_secure_test_environment_for_an_IXP⠀⇛ An Internet Exchange Point (IXP) is a unique and vital hub in the ecosystem of the Internet, where network operators from all over the world come together to exchange traffic directly and efficiently. Technically speaking, it works as a Layer 2 broadcast domain — a single subnet where participants’ routers connect. But beneath this straightforward definition lies a dynamic and interdependent system that relies heavily on cooperation and mutual trust to operate smoothly. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1729 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/19/today_s_howtos.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/19/today_s_howtos.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ today's howtos⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 19, 2025 * ⚓ Make Tech Easier ☛ 2025-02-10_[Older]_How_to_Create_a_Custom_Systemd Service_in_Linux⠀⇛ * ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_KDE_Plasma_on_Linux_Mint_22_or_21⠀⇛ * ⚓ Net2 ☛ How_to_Troubleshoot_and_Optimize_Ubuntu_Startup:_Manage_Systemd Services_for_Faster_Boot_Time⠀⇛ Optimizing your Ubuntu startup is essential for a seamless user experience and efficient system performance.

But now thanks to the work of [decrazyo] there’s a piece of furniture that you can add to your Animal Crossing house that will never get old: an x86 emulator that boots Linux. As explained in the video below, this trick leverages the fact that Nintendo had already built a highly accurate Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) emulator into Animal Crossing on the GameCube, which could be used to run a handful of classic games from within the player’s virtual living room. But it turns out that you can get that emulator to load a user-provided ROM from the GameCube’s memory card, which opens the doors to all sorts of mischief. * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ # ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Vaaman_reconfigurable_edge_computer_features Rockchip_RK3399_SoC_and_Efinix_Trion_T120_FPGA_ (Crowdfunding)⠀⇛ Vaaman is a reconfigurable single-board edge computer that integrates a Rockchip RK3399 hexa- core ARM processor with an Efinix Trion T120 FPGA, offering a reconfigurable platform for edge computing applications. The board combines the flexibility of an FPGA with the raw power of a hard processor to create a system capable of adapting to varying computational demands in real time. The compact SBC features the Rockchip RK3399 hexa-core processor with two Cortex-A72 cores and four Cortex-A53 cores, as well as an Efinix Trion T120 FPGA with 112,128 logic elements, interlinked with RK3399 via a high-speed 300Mbps bridge (but it’s unclear how this is implemented). * § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ o § Events⠀➾ # ⚓ Simon Ser ☛ Simon_Ser:_Status_update,_February_2025⠀⇛ Hi! This month has been pretty hectic, with FOSDEM and all. I’ve really enjoyed meeting face-to-face all of these folks I work online with the rest of the year! My talk_about_modern_IRC has been published on the FOSDEM website (unfortunately the audio quality isn’t great). o § Programming/Development⠀➾ # ⚓ Dirk Eddelbuettel ☛ Dirk_Eddelbuettel:_RcppDE_0.1.8_on CRAN:_Maintenance⠀⇛ A maintenance release of our RcppDE package arrived at CRAN. RcppDE is a “port” of DEoptim, a package for derivative-free optimisation using differential evolution, from plain C to C++. By using RcppArmadillo the code became a lot shorter and more legible. Our other main contribution is to leverage some of the excellence we get for free from using Rcpp, in particular the ability to optimise user-supplied compiled objective functions which can make things a lot faster than repeatedly evaluating interpreted objective functions as DEoptim does (and which, in fairness, most other optimisers do too). The gains can be quite substantial. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1936 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/19/today_s_leftovers.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/02/19/today_s_leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ today's leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 19, 2025 § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ * § Debian Family⠀➾ o ⚓ Beta News ☛ Who_needs_Windows_11?_FreeXP_is_a_modern_version_of Microsoft's_greatest_OS,_powered_by_Debian_Linux⠀⇛ * § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ o ⚓ Jonas Hietala ☛ Jonas_Hietala:_I'll_give_up_Neovim_when_you_pry it_from_my_cold,_dead_hands⠀⇛ I recently came upon a horror story where a developer was forced to switch editor from Neovim to Cursor and I felt I had to write a little to cleanse myself of the disgust I felt. o § Audiocasts/Shows⠀➾ # ⚓ Bryan Lunduke ☛ Eric_Raymond_&_Lunduke_Argue_About_the Origin_of_"Open_Source"⠀⇛ Who created the term "Open Source"? o § Events⠀➾ # ⚓ FSF ☛ FSF_Events:_Free_Software_Directory_meeting_on_IRC: Friday,_February_21,_starting_at_12:00_EST_(17:00_UTC)⠀⇛ Join the FSF and friends on Friday, February 21 from 12:00 to 15:00 EST (17:00 to 20:00 UTC) to help improve the Free Software Directory. o § Web Browsers/Web Servers⠀➾ # ⚓ Luke Harris ☛ Remove_index.html_from_URLs_with_Caddy server⠀⇛ This one took a while to figure out. I finished converting another WordPress site to static files today, but when I went to browse the site every URL ended in /index.html.

Ubuntu — Ubuntu’s HWE backports newer1 Linux kernel and Mesa GPU drivers to LTS users to ensure the latest LTS release works with the latest hardware. Soon, HWE updates may bundle a wider range of Intel graphics driver updates. Canonical engineer Shane McKee this week put forward a proposal to expand Ubuntu HWE updates to loop in a broader set of graphics driver packages specifically supporting Intel hardware in LTS releases. The move would help ensure users on the latest Ubuntu LTS—be they home, business, enterprise, etc— benefit from and have access to the latest features in the latest Intel hardware for the first 3 years of an Ubuntu long-term support period.
