This results in complexity across where applications run, how they are managed and how they are kept secure. Cloud-native solutions are often deployed on environments that span on-premises and multi-cloud infrastructure. The reality is that secrets – credentials that provide access to or within a system – are becoming increasingly distributed and organizations are at increased risk of secrets sprawl. Secrets such as usernames and passwords, TLS certificates, API tokens, database credentials and more are often managed inconsistently, and rotated manually and stored insecurely. This creates risk for data breaches, compliance issues and identity theft. In fact, according to the recent State of Kubernetes Security report, 67% of companies were forced to delay or slow down application deployment for these and other reasons. Plus nearly 90% had at least one container or Kubernetes security incident in the last 12 months. * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ The_benefits_of_native_FIPS_support_in_Go_1.24⠀⇛ The Go programming language has reached another significant milestone with the release of version 1.24. We at Red Bait are particularly excited about one of its standout features, native FIPS 140-3 support. This addition represents a major step forward for Go's adoption in enterprise and government environments where security compliance is paramount. * ⚓ [New]_Linux_Kernel_Development:_Behind_the_Scenes_with_an_IBM_Innovator [Ed: IBM_must_be_hurting (brain drain)]⠀⇛ At IBM, innovation is not just a buzzword — it’s a daily commitment, particularly when it comes to Linux kernel development for IBM Z and IBM LinuxONE. * ⚓ Fedora Magazine ☛ 2025-03-02_[Older]_Fedora_Magazine:_Contribute_at_the Fedora_Linux_42_i18n_Test_Week [Ed: IBM looking for slaves so it can sell expensive RHEL licences and keep the code of it secret]⠀⇛ * ⚓ 2025-03-02_[Older]_Fedora_Badges:_New_badge:_Chemnitzer_Linux-Tage_2025 !

However, developers are already looking ahead and laying out plans for the 43 release, which is expected to arrive later this year, likely in late October or early November. In light of this, Fedora is eyeing a major transition to RPM 6 (a package management system used in RHEL-based Linux distros) in its upcoming version 43.

Safety, however, remains the top priority and accepts neither competition nor compromise. Can Linux open the road to safer SDVs? In preparation for the Mobility Tech Forum and the panel discussion on SDV safety, EE Times Europe spoke with Moritz Neukirchner, senior director of strategic product management for SDVs at Elektrobit, to understand the penetration of Linux in automotive and how it can meet functional safety compliance requirements. o ⚓ Hot Hardware ☛ Google_Will_Enable_Android_Phones_With_Ability_To Run_Debian_Linux_Soon⠀⇛ Hidden away among the hullabaloo of Google's March Pixel feature drop lies a feature many enthusiasts and developers have asked for years—the Linux Terminal app. This Debian-based Linux environment is now available for Pixel phones with the latest stable update. This means users can load a portable desktop distro on their smartphones—can you believe this is happening right now? The app still lacks a proper GUI for now, but power users can already initiate commands like they would on their PCs/laptops. If an old 70s processor can run Linux, why can't a modern smartphone? Well, the wait is finally over. Google had hinted to serving up a proper Linux terminal app for Android for awhile now, but starting with the latest stable March Pixel update, the terminal app is open for all to use. To enable the app, you'll need a Pixel phone running the latest stable version of Android—of course—then head to Settings > System > Developer options > toggle Linux development environment. Once you do, the Linux Terminal app will appear in the app drawer. Launching the app will require an initial 567 MB download. * § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ o ⚓ The Next Platform ☛ Europe_Takes_Another_Whack_At_Homegrown Compute_Engines⠀⇛ With RISC-V International, the body controlling the RISC- V instruction set, located in Switzerland for the past five years, RISC-V now has just as much right to call itself indigenous to Europe as does Arm Ltd, the British chip company that finds itself on the other side of the English Channel after the Brexit break up and that_is still_around_90_percent_owned_by_Japanese_conglomerate SoftBank. o ⚓ The DIY Life ☛ Build_a_Smart_Family_Planner_with_a_Raspberry_Pi 5⠀⇛ Do You Struggle to Keep Track of Your Family’s Schedule? Today, I’m going to show you how to build a simple, smart family planner using a Raspberry Pi 5, a touchscreen display, and a 3D-printed stand! o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ The_ESP32_Bluetooth_Backdoor_That_Wasn’t⠀⇛ Recently there was a panicked scrambling after the announcement by [Tarlogic] of a ‘backdoor’ found in Espressif’s popular ESP32 MCUs. Specifically a backdoor on  the Bluetooth side that would give a lot of control over the system to any attacker. As [Xeno Kovah] explains, much about these claims is exaggerated, and calling it a ‘backdoor’ is far beyond the scope of what was actually discovered. o ⚓ CNX Software ☛ NextPCB_offers_free_ESP32-S3_PCBA_prototypes_for original_designs_(Sponsored)⠀⇛ NextPCB has started offering free PCBA prototypes for PCB designs based on the ESP32-S3 wireless microcontroller following a similar offer for free Raspberry Pi RP2040/ RP2350 PCBAs launched in January 2025. The Chinese PCB/ PCBA manufacturer’s new “accelerator campaign” targets developers, makers, and researchers who developed their own PCB based on the ESP32-S3 microcontroller. o ⚓ CNX Software ☛ ESP32-S3_based_AC_voltage_controller/dimmer features_a_knob_with_integrated_display⠀⇛ Makerfabs has recently introduced Matouch 1.28-inch ToolSet_AC Dimmer an open-source ESP32-based AC voltage controller for dimming lights or adjusting motor speeds using phase-cut dimming. Built around an ESP32-S3 wireless MCU, it features a 1.28” capacitive touch display (240×240), and a UI designed with LVGL/Squareline and the Arduino V2.3.4 IDE. o ⚓ It's FOSS ☛ Enjoying_Self-Hosting_Software_Locally_With_CasaOS and_Raspberry_Pi⠀⇛ I used CasaOS for self-hosting popular open source services on a Raspberry Pi. Here's my experience. o ⚓ Raspberry_Pi_Weekly_Issue_#494_-_Introducing:_extended temperature_range_for_Raspberry_Pi_Compute_Module_4⠀⇛ Howdy, Another week, another Raspberry Pi Weekly. I’m always only a Friday away <3 On Monday we announced the launch of Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4’s new extended temperature variants, with an operating temperature range stretching from −40°C to +85°C. They’re designed for applications in demanding indoor and outdoor environments. o ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ RISC-V_mini_AI_PC_that_fits_inside_a_Framework laptop_shell_revealed_—_DeepComputing's_DC-ROMA_RISC-V_AI_PC_claims 50_TOPS,_64GB_RAM⠀⇛ The new device comes with two names: either the "DC-ROMA RISC-V AI PC" or the "DC-ROMA RISC-V Mainboard II for Framework Laptop 13" according to its listing page. The mainboard is one of many members of DeepComputing's DC- ROMA line, a family of SFF/laptop PCs all built on the RISC-V architecture set. It is also DeepComputing's second replacement mainboard for the Framework Laptop 13, with both the RISC-V AI PC and its predecessor functioning either inside the Framework or on its own as a stand-alone unit. o ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Raspberry_Pi_powers_briefcase-sized_PiEEG_'Bio Lab'_project⠀⇛ At the heart of the kit is the aforementioned PiEEG HAT, the same HAT that we saw back in 2023. But this time the PiEEG is part of a larger "Bio Lab" in a briefcase that now includes a custom PCB and screen. The PCB has breakouts for the GPIO, SPI, I2C, power and a web of sensors that connect to a "Snoopy cap" which is one of the included interfaces between your brain and the Raspberry Pi. The cap is used to read the electrical activity of the brain (electroencephalogram, EEG) but the kit also has sensors that can be used for electrooculogram (EOG to measure how the retina reacts to light/dark by outputting a voltage), electrocardiogram (ECG measures the electrical activity of the heart) and electromyography (EMG measure the electrical activity of muscles). o ⚓ James G ☛ Repair_cafes⠀⇛ I would love to see more repair cafes across the UK where I can take things to be fixed. I could also imagine such cafes to be a place where you can exchange things you no longer need — for example, cables, or old computers — that could be made available to the community. o ⚓ The Guardian UK ☛ ‘Positive,_hopeful,_lovely_places’:_how Britain’s_repair_shops_are_cutting_waste_and_giving_devices_a_new lease_of_life⠀⇛ Boom in fixing rather than throwing away items creates jobs and cuts waste, emissions and costs o ⚓ Techdirt ☛ All_50_States_Have_Now_Pushed_‘Right_To_Repair’_Laws, But_Actual_Enforcement_Is_Spotty_At_Best⠀⇛ While U.S. consumer protection issues are a hot mess in the United States, the right to repair movement continues to be a singular bright spot. The more that giants like Apple, John Deere, and others try to monopolize repair (usually through obnoxious DRM, “parts pairing,” or legal fine print), the greater the public support for the movement seems to grow. The catch: so far only Massachusetts, New York, Minnesota, Colorado, California, and Oregon have actually passed laws. And in some instances the bills have been watered down post-passage, like in New York, where Governor Kathy Hochul buckled to company lobbying to make the law much weaker while also exempting many of the most problematic industries. o ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ HexBoard_MIDI_controller_strikes_a_chord_with RP2040⠀⇛ Musical instruments are dependent on physics and maths for their sounds. A guitar string changes pitch when its physical properties change, be that string thickness, tension, or length. A note from a saxophone, or any wind instrument, changes according to the length of the instrument that the air is vibrating through. Any physical instrument needs to have some physical property that the player must interact with in order to play music, and this naturally limits who can play, and what can be played. o ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Review_of_SunFounder_10.1-inch_touchscreen_display for_SBCs_using_Raspberry_Pi_5_and_Radxa_ROCK_5B⠀⇛ SunFounder has just sent us one of their 10.1-inch touchscreen display designed for single board computers (SBCs) for review. It supports the Raspberry Pi family, but not only, thanks to a flexible design that allows mounting all sorts of boards with mounting holes that fit within an 85x70mm area. All you need is a board with HDMI output, a spare USB port for the touchscreen, and 5V USB- C input (up to 5A). So I’ll first test the SunFounder 10.1-inch touchscreen display with a Raspberry Pi 5 (85x56mm), then a larger Radxa ROCK 5 Model B Pico-ITX SBC (100 x 72mm). o ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Raspberry_Pi_5_powers_cyberpunk_themed_brain scanner_in_a_custom_3D_printed_case⠀⇛ The Civitas Universe has dubbed this creation the Neuro Photonic R5 Flow Cyberdeck — named for its brain scanning functionality and the Raspberry Pi 5 powering it inside. The project is built around an existing brain scanning headset and has been programmed to interface with the Pi using an Adafruit Macropad. The housing has been created from scratch just for this project and features a really cool cyberpunk theme. o ⚓ Martijn Braam ☛ After-FOSDEM_videobox_updates⠀⇛ The FOSDEM video capture box is a custom device for doing all the in-room stuff for the live-streams of the event. It contains a Radxa x4 SBC, a digital audio mixer, an HDMI capture card, some USB chargers and a network switch. Every room that is livestreamed has two of these boxes, one in front that captures the audio and the HDMI signal for the projector. The other box is in the back of the room hooked up to the camera. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1529 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/11/Linux_Kernel_Space_Networking_and_Problems_With_Rust_Code_Enter.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/11/Linux_Kernel_Space_Networking_and_Problems_With_Rust_Code_Enter.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Linux Kernel Space: Networking and Problems With Rust Code Entering Where Developers Cannot Understand It⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 11, 2025 * ⚓ Bootlin ☛ Bootlin_at_Netdev_0x19,_THE_Technical_Conference_on_[GNU/ ]Linux_Networking⠀⇛ The Netdev conference is THE annual event dedicated to [GNU/ ]Linux networking, featuring numerous talks, presentations, and discussions on all aspects of network support in the Linux kernel and ecosystem. * ⚓ Dolphin Publications B V ☛ Discussion_Rust_drivers_in_Linux_kernel drags_on [Ed: Rust seems like toxic material inside Linux, a source of conflict]⠀⇛ The debate regarding the increasing adoption of Rust drivers in the Linux kernel, replacing portions of the established C and C++ codebase, shows no signs of abating. Industry experts like Josh Aas anticipate a continued steady rise in Rust driver implementation, primarily due to the superior memory security features this programming language offers compared to C. * ⚓ It's FOSS ☛ Nvidia_Driver_Written_in_Rust_Could_Arrive_With_Linux Kernel_6.15 [Ed: More people won't be able to study the code]⠀⇛ Nova, the in-development successor to nouveau was announced around this time last year, when Red Hat unveiled the open source, Rust-based driver for NVIDIA GPUs.

Zink is an OpenGL implementation written on top of Vulkan, while NVK is a Vulkan driver for NVIDIA GPUs, supporting Turing (NVIDIA RTX 20XX and NVIDIA GTX 16XX series) and later GPUs, Vulkan 1.4, and many other features.

On March 14, 2025, a critical root certificate will expire. And, if your browser isn’t updated to at least Firefox 128 (or ESR 115.13+ for those using the long-term support version) your add-ons will be disabled. Additionally, streaming services that require DRM may even stop working! For anyone still using an outdated version on Windows, macOS, Linux, or Android, time is running out to avoid these annoyances. Even those sticking with older operating systems (such as Windows 7, 8, and 8.1, or macOS 10.12–10.14) need to at least update to ESR 115.13+ if they want to keep their add- ons and media playback working. If you don’t upgrade soon, add-ons will be disabled, streaming platforms like Netflix may stop working, and Firefox’s built-in security tools could fail to update. That includes things like blocklists for malicious add-ons, SSL certificate revocation lists, and even features that alert you if your saved passwords are compromised. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1814 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/11/Programming_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/11/Programming_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Programming Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 11, 2025 * ⚓ Keith Harrison ☛ Swift_Testing_Completion_Handlers⠀⇛ I use a custom subclass of NSPersistentContainer when working with Core Data.

Some types (say, int8) have finite members. There are only ever 256 potential values for an 8-bit integer. Some times, (say, list) are infinite. Given enough storage, one could keep generating bigger and bigger instances. Since it’s not possible to store all elements of a set, we refer to types by a name. This reduces precision. Maybe there is some bizarre case where you know that an object could be one of a thousand different possible lists, so giving up and saying “it’s a list” loses information. But it also saves a bunch of space and analysis time, because now we’re dealing with very small labels. Let’s start off by giving a couple built-in types names and calling it a day. * ⚓ Noë Flatreaud ☛ Linux_reverse_shell_in_x86_assembly⠀⇛ I wanted to test out some sockets in x86 assembly.

More precisely, I use the SGDClassifier from scikit-learn, which is a simple linear classifier that can be updated incrementally. Keep in mind that this is an illustrative example, based on a few words and small vocabulary. There are many, many ways to improve the model, and many other configurations could be envisaged. So, feel free to experiment and extend this example. Nonetheless, the grammatical structure of the generated text (don’t generalize this result yet) is surprisingly good. * ⚓ Rlang ☛ (News_from)_Probabilistic_Forecasting_of_univariate_and multivariate_Time_Series_using_Quasi-Randomized_Neural_Networks_(Ridge2) and_Conformal_Prediction⠀⇛ A blog post describing univariate and multivariate probabilistic forecasting of time series using Ridge2 and conformal prediction * ⚓ KDAB ☛ Model/View_Drag_and_Drop_in_Qt_-_Part_2⠀⇛ In this follow-up to our drag-and-drop guide, we explore how to move items between views in Qt’s model/view framework.

One key tip I give to my students is to keep an eye on "strange" API calls. In the Windows ecosystem, Microsoft offers tons of API calls to developers. The fact that an API is used in a program does not always mean we are facing malicious code, but sometimes, some of them are derived from their official purpose. One of my hunting rules for malicious scripts is to search for occurrences of the ctypes[2] library. It allows Python to call functions in DLLs or shared libraries. o ⚓ The Record ☛ Kansas_healthcare_provider_says_more_than_220,000 impacted_by_cyberattack⠀⇛ Sunflower Medical Group said nearly 221,000 of its patients had information accessed by hackers who broke into their systems on December 15.

It’s not possible to definitively verify Musk’s claims without seeing technical data from X, and the likelihood of them releasing that is “pretty low,” said Nicholas Reese, an adjunct instructor at the Center for Global Affairs in New York University’s School of Professional Studies and expert in cyber operations. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2239 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/11/Security_Patches_and_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/11/Security_Patches_and_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Security Patches and Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 11, 2025 * ⚓ LWN ☛ Security_updates_for_Monday⠀⇛ Security updates have been issued by Debian (openvpn and thunderbird), Fedora (buildah, chromium, podman-tui, python- spotipy, qt6-qtwebengine, and vim), Mageia (chromium-browser- stable and gpac), Oracle (krb5), Red Hat (firefox, kernel, kernel-rt, libxml2, and pcs), SUSE (buildah, chromedriver, chromium, firefox, go1.23, go1.24, grype, python, python311- GitPython, ruby3.4-rubygem-rack, thunderbird, and xen), and Ubuntu (xorg-server, xorg-server-hwe-16.04, xorg-server-hwe- 18.04). * ⚓ Security Week ☛ 560,000_People_Impacted_Across_Four_Healthcare_Data Breaches⠀⇛ Several healthcare organizations in different US states have disclosed data breaches affecting 100,000-200,000 individuals.  * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Developer_Convicted_for_Hacking_Former_Employer’s Systems⠀⇛ Davis Lu was convicted of sabotaging his employer’s systems through malicious code, and deleting encrypted data. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Details_Disclosed_for_SCADA_Flaws_That_Could_Facilitate Industrial_Attacks⠀⇛ Palo Alto Networks has shared details on several high-severity Mitsubishi Electric and Iconics SCADA vulnerabilities. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Critical_PHP_Vulnerability_Under_Mass_Exploitation⠀⇛ GreyNoise warns of mass exploitation of a critical vulnerability in PHP leading to remote code execution on vulnerable servers. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Google_Paid_Out_$12_Million_via_Bug_Bounty_Programs_in 2024 [Ed: Pretending to be pro-security with some 'slush funds'/payouts while giving states and police back doors]⠀⇛ In 2024, Surveillance Giant Google paid out nearly $12 million in bug bounties through its revamped vulnerability reward programs. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Cobalt_Strike_Abuse_Dropped_80%_in_Two_Years⠀⇛ Fortra has shared an update on the effects of actions taken to reduce the abuse of Cobalt Strike by threat actors. * ⚓ Bruce Schneier ☛ Thousands_of_WordPress_Websites_Infected_with Malware⠀⇛ The malware includes four_separate_backdoors: Creating four backdoors facilitates the attackers having multiple points of re-entry should one be detected and removed.

I decided to try it. * ⚓ Ahmad Shadeed ☛ CSS_Relative_Colors⠀⇛ Over the years, we have been used to using CSS pre-processors like Sass for a use case like applying opacity to a pre-defined color. Today, we have a new way to do that and more with CSS relative colors. In this article, I aim to shed the light on that and introduce how it works along with many practical examples. Let’s dive in. * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ How_I_got_my_nose_rubbed_in_my_screens_having 'bad'_areas_for_me⠀⇛ When the mail server's load went through the roof, I should have noticed that the xload for it had turned solid green (which is how xload looks under high load). However, I had placed the mail server's xload way off on the right side of my office dual screens, which put it outside my normal field of attention. As a result, I never noticed the solid green xload that would have warned me of the problem. * § idroot⠀➾ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Atom_Text_Editor_on_Linux_Mint_22 [Ed: Atom is abandonware controlled by Microsoft; there's absolutely no reason to promote it, even in 2025]⠀⇛ Atom is a free and open-source text and source code editor known for its versatility and extensive customization options.

It's a Framework 13, and every part is replaceable,a nd many are upgradeable, to the point you can build out a Windows or Linux system that runs on Intel or AMD. Not only can you easily swap the M.2 storage, you can also load up on RAM with two slots, unlike MacBooks that are glued together. The Framework, to me, is the exact opposite of a MacBook, a machine I built that runs an OS I customized and am in full control of, and honestly, I'm having a blast using it. Of course, this all came at a high cost, not only for the new parts, but the original machine. o § Kernel Space⠀➾ # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Rust_drivers_expected_to_become_more common_in_Linux_kernel [Ed: The "non-technical nonsense" is what Microsoft does. GAFAM, knowing that Torvalds does not comprehend Rust, may have found one way to marginalise him and other senior kernel hackers.]⠀⇛ Since at least September last year, when Microsoft software engineer Wedson Almeida Filho left the Rust for Linux project citing "non-technical nonsense," it's been clear that acceptance had limits. Tensions between Rust and C kernel contributors flared again in January over concerns about the challenges of maintaining a mixed language codebase – likened to cancer by one maintainer. Urged to intervene, Linux creator Linux Torvalds did so, making his annoyance known to both parties and prompting their departures as Linux maintainers. o § Desktop Environments (DE)/Window Managers (WM)⠀➾ # § K Desktop Environment/KDE SC/Qt⠀➾ # ⚓ Nate Graham ☛ Personal_and_professional_updates_— announcing_Techpaladin_Software⠀⇛ After six years at Blue Systems GmbH, I’ve had the privilege of working daily with some of the finest and most ethical engineers I’ve ever known; lots of people whose names you probably recognize, because they’re some of the biggest contributors to Plasma and KWin, and regularly appear in This Week in Plasma. Starting earlier this month, about a dozen of Blue Systems’ current people — myself included — have moved over to a new company named Techpaladin Software that’s co-owned by me and someone else you probably know: David Edmundson! ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 3145 ➮ Generation completed at 02:50, i.e. 31 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
