Blender 4.4 is the first release to use Vulkan for displaying the rendered result of Cycles. The Blender Foundation says that the process has been reimplemented using a new threading model, which results in the same performance compared to when OpenGL was used.

The rollout of the Linux Terminal app in the latest Pixel update came as a surprise to many as Google hadn’t publicly mentioned it in the months leading to its release. In an effort to combat wild speculation, a Google employee has finally commented on why the company recently introduced the Terminal app, in turn revealing important information about the future of Linux apps on Android. Since late last year, we’ve been tracking Google’s efforts to let you run Linux apps on Android. Google has been working in the open on improvements to the Android Virtualization Framework (AVF) since last year, culminating in the creation of the new Linux Terminal app that we first showcased in October. While the source code for Google’s virtualization efforts has been publicly available, the reasoning behind those efforts has never been disclosed. We speculated that Google was adding this Terminal feature to prepare for the future migration of Chrome OS over to an Android stack, as the feature enables an experience similar to how Linux apps operate on Chromebooks. Read_on Also: * ⚓ Google_finally_sheds_light_on_what_its_new_Linux_terminal_app_is_for_ (and_what_it_isn't)⠀⇛ Google's active work on an Android Linux Terminal app that lets users run an instance of Debian in a virtual machine has long been an open secret. First spotted with Android 15 QPR2 beta in November, the Terminal app finally made its way to stable with the March 2025 Pixel Feature Drop. The app currently offers a text-based command-line interface, complete with options to adjust the amount of space allocated to the Linux environment, set port controls, and a Recovery option for the virtual machine's storage partition. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⠉⠙⠛⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠛⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠙⠻⢗⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠋⠀⢹⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠿⠿⠟⠟⢻⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⡶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠹⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⢸⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠚⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⡇⠌⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢐⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⡟⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⣾⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣤⣶⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 667 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/18/Linux_GPU_Configuration_Tool_LACT_adds_AMD_RDNA4_support_and_NV.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/18/Linux_GPU_Configuration_Tool_LACT_adds_AMD_RDNA4_support_and_NV.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Linux GPU Configuration Tool (LACT) adds AMD RDNA4 support and NVIDIA locked clocks support | GamingOnLinux⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 18, 2025 Linux GPU Configuration Tool (LACT) version 0.7.2 is out now bringing with it expanded hardware support for AMD GPUs along with new features for NVIDIA GPU owners.

This event has since become known as "The Mother of All Demos". Recently, Amelia Wattenberger published an article with ideas about a possible future for user interfaces. In short, she asks for interfaces with more tactile "friction", praises multi- modality and suggest variations in both input devices and feedback options. We'll return to her text, but first, let's look at some other visions of future user interfaces. * ⚓ Dirk Eddelbuettel ☛ Thinking_inside_the_box⠀⇛ RcppExamples provides a handful of short examples detailing by concrete working examples how to set up basic R data structures in C++.

But it’s wrong to frame this along Google’s lines, that they’ve been there waiting for Apple to support E2EE for RCS. They’ve been waiting for Apple to support RCS at all, yes, and Google has also implemented their own proprietary E2EE layer for RCS. But until now, there was no E2EE specification in the open RCS spec. Now there is. That’s why it’s not just Android ↔︎ iOS RCS messaging that wasn’t able to use E2EE, but even Android ↔︎ Android, unless both devices were using Google’s own Messages app. o ⚓ Six Colors ☛ Apple_to_add_end-to-end_encryption_support_for_RCS⠀⇛ Personally, I never really thought it made sense for Apple, a company whose brand is about security and privacy, to withhold support for encryption on RCS. But the real issue was that the RCS standard did not include support for cross-platform encryption, even though other providers, like Google, enabled encryption on their platforms. So it doesn’t surprise me to see that this move is being made in concert with the GSM Association, which oversees the RCS standard. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1137 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/18/Raspberry_Pi_and_More.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/18/Raspberry_Pi_and_More.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Raspberry Pi and More⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 18, 2025 * ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ RP2350_now_available_to_buy:_a_high-performance,_secure microcontroller_for_your_next_project⠀⇛ RP2350 debuted on our own $5 Raspberry Pi Pico 2 single-board computer, and on the DEF CON 32 badge, and powers boards from early-access partners including Hellbender, WIZnet and SparkFun.

Initially estimating a week, the project took three weeks and cost $1,200 in GPU resources due to unexpected complexities. The tool doesn’t work like traditional decryptors but instead brute-forces encryption keys using timestamp-based methods. The researchers explained that he devised the decryption technique recently after he helped a company recovering their data from the Akira ransomware without paying the ransom. The company was infected with a variant that has been active from late 2023 to the present. Nugroho’s decryptor brute-forces encryption keys by exploiting Akira ransomware’s use of timestamp-based seeds. Akira generates unique keys for each file using four different timestamps with nanosecond precision, hashed through 1,500 rounds of SHA-256. The researcher analyzed log files, file metadata, and hardware benchmarks to estimate encryption timestamps, making brute-forcing decryption keys more efficient. * § Audiocasts/Shows⠀➾ o ⚓ The Cyber Show ☛ #043_|_S5_|_Specials_|_Zero_Trust_|_Part_One [Ed: The Cyber Show ☛ direct_MP3_link]⠀⇛ Join the team for part one of this three part series, as Andy follows Ed, Helen and media crew Alicja through Threatlocker's Zero Trust World 2025 event in Florida and reflect on zero trust in cybersecurity. * § Windows TCO / Windows Bot Nets⠀➾ o ⚓ Security Week ☛ Microsoft_365_Targeted_in_New_Phishing,_Account Takeover_Attacks⠀⇛ The attackers were seen controlling multiple Microsoft 365 organization tenants (either new or compromised), creating administrative accounts, creating misleading full-text messages mimicking Microsoft transaction notifications, initiating a purchase or trial subscription event to generate a billing email, and then sending phishing emails using Microsoft’s infrastructure. * § Entrapment (Microsoft GitHub)⠀➾ o ⚓ The Register UK ☛ GitHub_supply_chain_attack_spills_secrets_from 23K_projects⠀⇛ StepSecurity disclosed a compromise of the popular GitHub Action tj-actions/changed-files, which works to detect file changes in open source projects, noting that more than 23,000 GitHub repositories currently use the automation project's code. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1484 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/18/Switching_From_Xfce_to_IceWM_With_AntiX_My_Old_Computer_is_Back.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/18/Switching_From_Xfce_to_IceWM_With_AntiX_My_Old_Computer_is_Back.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Switching From Xfce to IceWM With AntiX, My Old Computer is Back in Action Again⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Mar 18, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇antiXs⦈_ Quoting: Switching From Xfce to IceWM With AntiX, My Old Computer is Back in Action Again — With the opening quarter of 2025, I’ve finally replaced my old favorite, EndeavourOS (where I used Xfce), with antiX (where I opted for IceWM) as my main operating system.

Some of these were true at the time, some weren't, but they've turned from objective facts to vague mythology. What is true now is that, because of Valve and the work they put into SteamOS for the Steam Deck handhelds, gaming on Linux is every bit as viable as on Windows, and in some cases, even better. The lower system load of Linux is perfect for PC gaming handhelds, and their restricted power levels, but it's also just as good for desktop users. There are one or two things still holding it back from being an equal fight between Linux and Windows, but the gap has never been closer.

☛ How_To_Import_and_Export_Email_Contacts_on_Thunderbird⠀⇛ This tutorial will help you move address book from one Thunderbird instance to another. This can be accomplished by export and importing it as files. Finally, you might want to to this because you have multiple computers with Ubuntu then you want contacts from the older computer with a lot of addresses (your family, friends, colleagues, community, teams) to be available in the new one. Now let's try it out! * ⚓ Sergio_Talens-Oliag:_Configuring_forgejo_actions⠀⇛ Last week I decided I wanted to try out forgejo_actions to build this blog instead of using webhooks, so I looked the documentation and started playing with it until I had it working as I wanted. This post is to describe how I’ve installed and configured a forgejo_runner, how I’ve added an oci organization to my instance to build, publish and mirror container images and added a couple of additional organizations (actions and docker for now) to mirror interesting actions. * ⚓ A_Comprehensive_Guide_to_Linux_Kernel⠀⇛ The GNU/Linux kernel is the core of the GNU/Linux operating system, responsible for managing hardware resources, system processes, security, and communication between applications and the hardware. It is an essential component that determines the performance, security, and stability of a Linux-based system. * ⚓ It's FOSS ☛ Must_Know_Ollama_Commands_for_Managing_LLMs_locally [Ed: The site is called It's FOSS, but this is not FOSS]⠀⇛ Here are the ollama commands you need to know for managing your large language models effectively. * ⚓ Dima Kogan ☛ Dima_Kogan:_Eigen_macro_specializations_crashes⠀⇛ There's an issue in the Eigen_linear_algebra_library where linking together objects compiled with different flags causes the resulting binary to crash. Some details are written-up in this_mailing_list_thread. I just encountered a situation where a large application sometimes crashes for unknown reasons, and needed a method to determine whether this Eigen issue could be the cause. I ended up doing this by using the DWARF data to see if the linked binary contains the different incompatible flavors of malloc / free or not. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2120 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/18/today_s_howtos.shtml Gemini version at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/03/18/today_s_howtos.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ today's howtos⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Mar 18, 2025 * ⚓ Vincent Bernat ☛ Offline_PKI_using_3_YubiKeys_and_an_ARM_single_board computer⠀⇛ An offline PKI enhances security by physically isolating the certificate authority from network threats.

This article shows you how to use the package manager and talks about a few of its quirks. It's an early beta version, and you do notice that when using it. A small list of things I noticed, coming from a Linux (apt/yum/dnf) background: There seems to be no automatic dependency resolution and the dependencies it does list are incomplete. No update management yet, no removal of packages and no support for your own package repository, only the VSI official one. Service startup or login script changes are not done automatically. Packages with multiple installer files fail and require manual intervention. It does correctly identify the architectures, has search support and makes it way easier to install software. The time saved by downloading, manually copying and starting installation is huge, so even this early beta is a very welcome addition to OpenVMS. * ⚓ Best_GNU/Linux_Distributions_to_Use_in_2025⠀⇛ Linux has continued to evolve as a powerful, open-source operating system that caters to a wide range of users, from enterprises to home users, developers, gamers, and privacy enthusiasts.

With Ubuntu 25.04, you might be getting a cool feature that will squeeze more performance out of your computer. Ubuntu 25.04, the next update to the popular Linux desktop operating system, will enable NVIDIA Dynamic Boost by default, leveraging the packaged NVIDIA driver support to dynamically optimize power allocation between the CPU and GPU. This is a technology designed for modern laptops equipped with discrete NVIDIA GPUs (dGPUs). It intelligently manages the power budget shared between the CPU and GPU, and shifts power towards the GPU when it's under heavy load. This is achieved by dynamically down-clocking the CPU cores, freeing up more power for the graphics processor. Conversely, when the CPU is under heavy load and the GPU is relatively idle, power can be reallocated back to the CPU.
