Even leaving the extra cost of enterprise hardware aside, there are plenty of reasons to avoid going with cacophonic, thermally-challenged, and power-guzzling servers. While there are certain operating systems like Harvester that can’t run on your run- of-the-mill PC, you don’t need a killer workstation just to build an experimentation server. In fact, there are tons of distributions that pair well with outdated machines, budget-friendly SBCs, and low-end NAS units. Having tested numerous virtualization and containerization platforms over the course of my home lab journey, here are the distros I recommend the most if you’ve got a modest computing setup.

Chances are you've heard Linux Mint recommended over and over. But if you're serious about finding a Windows replacement that's not only easy but also modern, secure, and built for the future, you should take a closer look at Fedora. Fedora often gets labeled "cutting edge," which can sound a little scary if you're new to Linux. But here's the thing: Fedora "just works" for most people. It delivers a clean, polished experience while giving you faster updates, better hardware support, and a modern feel that Linux Mint sometimes struggles to match. So here are seven reasons why Fedora might actually be a better Windows replacement for you than Linux Mint.

I've just pushed that to Git. Today we celebrated in the back yard with the birds. Our_case, which we filed last summer [1, 2], seems to be progressing nicely and the lawyer of the other side appears_to_be_leaving. He knows they're in trouble. For the party next month we've gathered decorations and some booze (less fancy than pre-COVID-19_parties); if you want to join, please let us know in_IRC. █

Are you wondering why? Here’s the deal: Many PCs that run Windows 10 just fine, especially those older than 2017, lack TPM 2.0 or UEFI Secure Boot, making them ineligible for a Windows 11 upgrade. So, even if their PC works well, users will feel forced to upgrade to stay protected—and if their hardware isn’t supported by Windows 11, the only viable option is to buy a new computer.

This feature allows for the timing of RPA address changes, which improves privacy. Your Bluetooth device and those it connects to can change address at times that can’t be predicted, which makes it harder for snooping devices to track your activity or location. To improve power efficiency, this address change operation can be offloaded to the Bluetooth controller instead of the device’s CPU, which will save battery life. o ⚓ Lee Yingtong Li ☛ Foreground_segmentation_with_JBIG2_for_improved PDF_compression:_pdf-segmented⠀⇛ JBIG2 is an efficient image compression format for bi- level (bi-tonal) images, which is supported by the PDF file format and common PDF viewers. To date, tooling for producing documents using JBIG2 (particularly open source tooling) has been limited; I have previously presented file-jbig2pdf, a GIMP plugin for generating PDF files using JBIG2. This suffices for simple black-and-white documents, but does not assist when documents contain both black-and-white text and colour graphics. In the DjVu format designed specifically for archival, scanned documents can be separated into a black-and-white foreground layer which is losslessly compressed, and a colour background layer which is lossily compressed. This enables more efficient compression. PDF easily supports a similar structure (JBIG2 black-and-white foreground layer, on top of a colour background), and proprietary PDF software (particularly in scanners) can generate analogously structured PDF documents, but I am unaware of any open source software to do so.1 ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 855 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/05/10/Games_Steam_Deck_Bridge_Constructor_and_More.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/05/10/Games_Steam_Deck_Bridge_Constructor_and_More.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Games: Steam Deck, Bridge Constructor, and More⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 10, 2025 * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Here's_all_the_games_to_claim_for_Steam_Deck_/_Linux from_Prime_Gaming_as_of_May_9th⠀⇛ Here's the fresh and up to date list of games available on Amazon Prime Gaming for May 9th, and what compatibility you can expect for Linux / SteamOS and Steam Deck.

Read_on Update More here: * ⚓ It's_official:_GNOME_is_replacing_Totem_Video_Player_with_Showtime_in GNOME_49⠀⇛ It's almost time to bid farewell to Totem, the longtime GNOME video player that's been part of the desktop since 2005, and welcome its successor in GNOME 49. ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⢉⣉⣉⣉⡉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⡉⠉⠉⠙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⣤⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣖⡆⠒⠒⠒⢰⣶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣗⡧⠤⠤⠤⢼⣻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣴⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣗⡇⠀⠀⠀⢸⣺⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⡏⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠈⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠩⠁⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡗⠛⠻⣿⣿⡟⠁⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣠⡀⣄⢀⢄⣠⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠖⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠢⣴⢤⣔⣢⠄⠂⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠁⠁⢨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⡉⠻⠿⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣠⣤⣤⣤⣤⠤⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡧⠶⣶⣶⣶⣤⣄⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣴⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠋⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⢀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣝⠀⣻⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣠⠄⢴⠷⠀⠺⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠠⠄⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠙⠛⠛⠋⠈⠛⠛⠋⠉⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠞⣻⠿⠃⠀⠀⡀⠀⠘⢿⣿⣄⣌⡉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⢉⡁⠀⠀⢀⣤⠞⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⢂⡒⠁⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠁⠀⠀ ⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣄⣀⣤⣤⣼⣷⣶⣢⣦⣤⣾⣥⡴⠶⡖⡒⣶⣿⡧⠶⡶⠶⣾⣿⣿⢿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⢀⣠⣤⣶⣿⣿⣷⣄⣀⣴⣤⣴⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠻⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡧⠀⣾⣿⣶⣶⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣇⡀⣀⡺⢿⣿⠗⣚⡛⡻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣠⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣀⣀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣀⣀⣿⣏⣾⣿⣶⣦⣤⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣥⣾⣿⣵⣁⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1045 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/05/10/GNU_Linux_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/05/10/GNU_Linux_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ GNU/Linux Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 10, 2025 * § Audiocasts/Shows⠀➾ o ⚓ Document Foundation ☛ ODF_20th_Anniversary_Video⠀⇛ On May 1st, 2005, the Open Document Format (ODF) become an OASIS standard.

Foir those who came in late, Intel’s 486 processor launched in 1989 and was the first x86 chip to integrate a floating-point unit and full 32-bit architecture, kicking off the era of truly usable Windows machines. By the late '90s, it had been eclipsed by the Pentium line, and while Microsoft officially pulled the plug with Windows XP in 2001, Linux kept the lights on for another two decades until its final retirement in 2025. After Linux 6.15, the kernel will no longer support Intel’s ancient 486 chips or the first batch of Pentium processors lacking Time Stamp Counter (TSC) and CMPXCHG8B (CX8) instructions.

But then again, replace KompoZer with any old, arcane program that has no native Linux build, or at least, no modern Linux build. In a way, it is tragic you CAN run a 2007 Windows executable in Linux just fine, but it's extremely hard to find and build a Linux edition, even though it was available in Ubuntu archives, all the way through 12.04, which means, you would have been able to find the deb packages until 2017 or so. Nowadays, it seems easier resorting to Windows builds and WINE. But there could be snags here and there. Hopefully, my guide will help you retain the usage of KompoZer - or any such program - with decent looks and speed, without any conflicts with the modern amenities like HD/UHD screens, weird scaling factors and DPI values. For KompoZer, all of my workarounds offer immediate improvements - responsiveness and lower usage of processor cycles, perhaps even slightly better looks. And with Xephyr and friends, you can mimic the fullscreen comfort, if you need it. Well, that would be all. Another obstacle overcome. See you around.

The release also includes an option to buy the DC-ROMA RISC-V Mainboard II as a replacement for the Framework Laptop 13. As of writing, the PC is listed for $399 and is currently sold out. However, the mainboard replacement option is still in stock and listed for $359. * ⚓ Arduino ☛ A_single_RGB_camera_turns_your_palm_into_a_keyboard_for_mixed reality_interaction⠀⇛ This isn’t a new idea, but the execution stands out. It works by pointing a camera at the user’s hands. In mixed reality, the user sees a small keyboard projected on top of their palm. They then use their index finger on their opposite hand to tap the virtual keys. The camera tracks the movement of the index fingertip relative to the palm to determine which virtual keys the user touches. * ⚓ Arduino ☛ ExoKit_is_a_novice-friendly_foundation_for_building_powered exoskeletons⠀⇛ ExoKit takes advantage of Dynamixel servo motors, which are easy to source and relatively affordable. Those are compatible with any Arduino development board, but the Saarland team used an Arduino Mega 2560 paired with a Dynamixel shield. That can handle up to six servos. The custom mechanical parts were designed in Autodesk Fusion 360. The models are modifiable to suit different exoskeleton designs and are 3D-printable. Sensors include potentiometers to provide feedback on joint positions and load cells to monitor forces. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1676 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/05/10/Oregon_State_University_Open_Source_Lab_s_path_to_sustainabilit.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/05/10/Oregon_State_University_Open_Source_Lab_s_path_to_sustainabilit.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Oregon State University Open Source Lab's path to sustainability⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 10, 2025 * ⚓ LWN ☛ Albertson:_OSL's_path_to_sustainability⠀⇛ Lance Albertson writes that the Oregon State University Open Source Lab has been funded for the next year, following his announcement in April that the future of OSL was in jeopardy.

The IDE is developed independently from the underlying Pascal language that it's written in, so this doesn't mean a whole new version of FreePascal: Lazarus 4 was built with FreePascal 3.2.2 which was released in 2021. It replaces Lazarus 3.8, which was the current version when we talked about it for Delphi's 30th anniversary back in February. * ⚓ Unmitigated Risk ☛ Agents,_Not_Browsers:_Keeping_Time_with_the_Future⠀⇛ More concerning is the current security and privacy vacuum. We’re generating code at breakneck speeds thanks to AI assistants, but we haven’t adapted our secure development lifecycle (SDL) practices to match this acceleration. Even worse, we’re failing to deploy the scalable security techniques we do have available. The result? Sometime around 2028, expect a high-profile breach where an agent’s privileged access is exploited across multiple services in ways that the builders never anticipated. This won’t just leak data, it will erode trust in the entire agent paradigm. * ⚓ Vincent Sgherzi ☛ Rust_Dependencies_scare_Me⠀⇛ Rust's dependencies are starting to worry me. For those who don't code in Rust, Rust provides an ecosystem of crates through crates.io, allowing users to helpfully install them with the command cargo add, or by simply adding the requested crate and version to the Cargo.toml file. This paradigm is similar to NPM for nodejs. * § Perl / Raku⠀➾ o ⚓ Perl ☛ 2025-05-08_[Older]_Perl_Toolchain_Summit_2025⠀⇛ o ⚓ Perl ☛ 2025-05-08_[Older]_Perl_makes_it_to_Futility_Closet_as_a poem...⠀⇛ o ⚓ Perl ☛ 2025-05-07_[Older]_The_Perl_Toolchain_Summit_2025⠀⇛ o ⚓ Perl ☛ 2025-05-05_[Older]_The_sculpture_shapes_the_sculptor.⠀⇛ o ⚓ Perl ☛ 2025-05-03_[Older]_Announce:_Perl_Wiki_V_1.26⠀⇛ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1788 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/05/10/Raspberry_Pi_Connect_Exits_Beta_with_Version_2_5_Release.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/05/10/Raspberry_Pi_Connect_Exits_Beta_with_Version_2_5_Release.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Raspberry Pi Connect Exits Beta with Version 2.5 Release⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on May 10, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Raspberry_Pi_logo⦈_ Quoting: Raspberry Pi Connect Exits Beta with Version 2.5 Release Raspberry Pi Connect Exits Beta with Version 2.5 Release — Raspberry Pi OS has also been updated this week to include the latest Connect version.

In the early days, it was a favorite of universities and tech companies, as the improvements to file handling and networking and its low-resource overhead meant it was perfect for large campuses. Like macOS and Linux, it was derived from the Unix core architecture, and has followed a relatively parallel but diverging path since then. The FreeBSD Foundation was created in 2000 to fundraise and provide organizational support to FreeBSD's FOSS project. In the last quarter-century, it's gone from a favorite of industry to a favorite of home labbers, gamers, and more, although not all of them know that they're using FreeBSD when they pick up their devices to click some heads.

Every week we cover the highlights of what’s happening in the world of KDE Plasma and its associated apps like Discover, System Monitor, and more. This week Plasma 6.4’s “soft feature freeze” came into effect, which means we stop merging new features unless they’ve been in development for months and are alllllmost ready. So focus has shifted to bug- fixing and UI polishing. You may also notice that quite a lot of changes in Plasma this week actually came from KDE Frameworks. It’s a good reminder that these frameworks underpin everything KDE makes — the unsung infrastructural heroes quietly and boringly making other work possible.

howtos⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 10, 2025 * ⚓ How_to_Fix_Date_and_Time_in_AlmaLinux_using_Command_line⠀⇛ Are you planning to deploy AlmaLinux as a Desktop OS or server? Do you know how important it is to have the correct date and time on your system to install the updates and other packages correctly? * ⚓ Barry Kauler ☛ Fix_Tor_browser_flatpak_in_Flapi⠀⇛ Forum member SteveS reported the problem: https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=14415 Fixed, see github commit: [...] * ⚓ How_to_Install_Gnumeric_on_FunOS⠀⇛ If you’re looking for a lightweight and efficient spreadsheet application on FunOS, Gnumeric is an excellent choice. Designed to be fast and require minimal system resources, Gnumeric is a great alternative to heavier office suites like LibreOffice Calc. This article will guide you step-by-step through the process of installing, launching, and uninstalling Gnumeric on FunOS. * ⚓ Chris Done ☛ My_blog_now_runs_on_a_Raspberry_Pi_at_home⠀⇛ I grabbed a Raspberry Pi 5 (highly overpowered for a blog), connected it to my router via gigabit Ethernet, and got it running with a simple SD card for the root file-system. All logs (journald) are moved to tmpfs (‘volatile’ storage mode). The blog itself is sync’d via a webhook from GitHub, and is stored in tmpfs, too. Like this, it should run for a couple years without the SD card wearing out. * ⚓ Chloé Vulquin ☛ Tailscale_on_the_Train⠀⇛ Well, remember that a Tailscale exit node is fundamentally wireguard with some magic sprinkles. It remembers your identity since that is what it’s based on, and automatically switches how it will route your tunnel when it receives a UDP packet from your end. Your device will automatically send such a UDP packet when network conditions change. This can then be “resumed” unlike TCP because it’s not a stream based protocol. In the meanwhile, the requesting server will actually see the exit node’s IP, and so nothing will change for it. The practical consequence is that even if your IP changes, if you’re using a wireguard-based default route VPN (which is what a Tailscale exit node is), you no longer have the above failure condition. Even if things go poorly (and they will, repeatedly), you’ll be able to continue loading a given resource chunk by chunk (albeit with many retries) until you either get there, or a lengthier timeout is hit. * ⚓ SparkFun Electronics ☛ New_Tutorial:_Add_Audio_to_Your_Embedded Project!⠀⇛ In our newest tutorial, we'll walk you through using the SparkFun Audio Player Breakout in combination with the Qwiic Twist to let you select and play tracks from a microSD card. It's a compact and powerful way to add audio interactivity to your prototype using simple I2C and serial connections. * ⚓ TecMint ☛ How_to_Run_Old_DOS_Games_and_Apps_Using_DOSBox-X⠀⇛ DOSBox-X is an enhanced fork of the original DOSBox emulator, which replicates a complete MS-DOS environment and adds modern features such as better hardware support, customizable UI, long filename support, and improved compatibility with a wide variety of software. * ⚓ TecMint ☛ How_to_Install_and_Use_Termius_SSH_Client_on_Linux⠀⇛ This detailed guide will walk you through the process of installing and using Termius on a Linux system, as well as configuring your first connection. * ⚓ Linux Journal ☛ Beyond_APT:_Software_Management_with_Flatpak_on Ubuntu⠀⇛ Ubuntu has long relied on APT and DEB packages for software management, with Snap becoming increasingly prevalent in recent releases. However, a third contender has risen to prominence in the GNU/Linux world: Flatpak. Designed as a universal software packaging and distribution framework, Flatpak offers a fresh, sandboxed approach to application management that works seamlessly across distributions. In this article, we’ll dive into how to manage software with Flatpak on Ubuntu, providing everything you need to get started, optimize your workflow, and compare it with existing solutions. * § idroot⠀➾ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Tails_on_Linux⠀⇛ In today’s digital landscape, privacy has become increasingly important for individuals concerned about surveillance, data collection, and online tracking. Tails OS (The Amnesic Incognito Live System) stands as one of the most powerful tools for those seeking anonymity and security in their computing activities. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_PowerShell_on_Fedora_42 [Ed: PowerShell is Microsoft/Windows vendor lock-in; better to alter the scripts to bash]⠀⇛ PowerShell has evolved from a Windows-specific scripting solution to a powerful cross-platform tool that GNU/Linux administrators can leverage for automation and system management. With Fedora 42’s recent release, many system administrators and developers are looking to harness PowerShell’s capabilities on this cutting-edge distribution. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_OpenSCAP_on_Manjaro⠀⇛ OpenSCAP stands as one of the most comprehensive open- source security compliance and vulnerability scanning tools available for GNU/Linux systems. For Manjaro users concerned about security compliance and vulnerability assessment, implementing OpenSCAP provides a robust framework for maintaining system integrity. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Puppet_on_CentOS_Stream_10⠀⇛ In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Puppet on CentOS Stream 10. Puppet stands as one of the most powerful configuration management tools available today, enabling system administrators to automate deployment, configuration, and management of services across multiple servers simultaneously. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Docker_Compose_on_Fedora_42⠀⇛ Docker Compose has revolutionized the way developers create and manage multi-container applications. With Fedora 42 being the latest release of this powerful GNU/ Linux distribution, many users are looking to harness the capabilities of Docker Compose for their development workflows. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_BleachBit_on_CentOS_Stream_10⠀⇛ In this tutorial, we will show you how to install BleachBit on CentOS Stream 10. BleachBit stands as a powerful system cleaning utility for GNU/Linux environments, offering users an efficient way to maintain system performance and protect privacy. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_GStreamer_on_Linux_Mint_22⠀⇛ In this tutorial, we will show you how to install GStreamer on Linux Mint 22. GStreamer stands as one of the most powerful multimedia frameworks available for GNU/Linux systems, providing essential functionality for audio and video playback across numerous applications. * ⚓ Own HowTo ☛ How_to_Install_NVM_on_Ubuntu⠀⇛ NVM is a tool that allows you to install Node.js in your system. With NVM you can easily install any Node.js version on your machine. Installing NVM on Ubuntu is quite simple, and it can be done easily via the official installer. * ⚓ Own HowTo ☛ How_to_install_TinyCP_on_Ubuntu_24.04⠀⇛ TinyCP is a lightweight control panel that allows you to manage your servers. With TinyCP you can manage your servers directly from your browser, from any device as long as you have internet access. * ⚓ Lee Yingtong Li ☛ Foreground_segmentation_with_JBIG2_for_improved_PDF compression:_pdf-segmented⠀⇛ JBIG2 is an efficient image compression format for bi-level (bi-tonal) images, which is supported by the PDF file format and common PDF viewers. To date, tooling for producing documents using JBIG2 (particularly open source tooling) has been limited; I have previously presented file-jbig2pdf, a GIMP plugin for generating PDF files using JBIG2. This suffices for simple black-and-white documents, but does not assist when documents contain both black-and-white text and colour graphics. In the DjVu format designed specifically for archival, scanned documents can be separated into a black-and-white foreground layer which is losslessly compressed, and a colour background layer which is lossily compressed. This enables more efficient compression. PDF easily supports a similar structure (JBIG2 black-and-white foreground layer, on top of a colour background), and proprietary PDF software (particularly in scanners) can generate analogously structured PDF documents, but I am unaware of any open source software to do so.1 * ⚓ Martin_Pitt:_InstructLab_evaluation_with_Ansible_and_Wordle⠀⇛ During this quarter, all employees are asked to become familiar with using Hey Hi (AI) technologies. In the last months I explored using Hey Hi (AI) for code editing and pull request reviews, but I’ll write about that separately. But today is another Red Bait day of learning, so I looked at something more hands-on: Install and run InstructLab on my own laptop again, and experiment with it. TL/DR: This just reinforced my experience from the last two years about Hey Hi (AI) being too bad and too expensive for what I would expect it to do. * § IBM⠀➾ o ⚓ Red Hat ☛ LLM_Compressor:_Optimize_LLMs_for_low-latency deployments⠀⇛ The exponential growth in large language model (LLM) sizes has significantly outpaced improvements in hardware memory. As recent releases like Meta's Llama 4 Scout (109B parameters) and Llama 4 Maverick (400B parameters) show, deploying these massive models on limited hardware, even datacenter-class 80GB GPUs, requires substantial memory and compute optimizations.  o ⚓ Network World ☛ How_to_Use_the_column_Command_in_Linux_|_Format Output_into_Neat_Columns_Easily⠀⇛ In this Linux tip, Sandra Henry-Stocker, author of the "Unix as a Second Language" blog on NetworkWorld, walks you through how to use the column command in Linux to neatly organize your command-line output into formatted columns. * ⚓ Android Authority ☛ Running_out_of_memory_in_Android_16's_Linux Terminal?_Try_this_fix⠀⇛ One of the most exciting new features in the second quarterly release of Android 15 is the Linux Terminal app. This app allows you to run full-fledged Linux applications on Android by booting an instance of the Debian distribution within a virtual machine. This virtual machine shares resources and hardware, such as processing power and storage, with the host Android device. By default, the Linux Terminal app is limited to 4GB of memory, which might be insufficient for demanding development workloads. Fortunately, there’s a simple workaround for this limitation. * ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ I_Tried_Installing_Linux_on_a_Surface_Laptop,_Here's_How It_Went⠀⇛ My Surface laptop finally started showing its age, and try as I might, there wasn’t much I could do to improve its performance. So I took the ultimate step: I installed Linux on a Microsoft Surface laptop. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2894 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/05/10/today_s_leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/05/10/today_s_leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ today's leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 10, 2025 * § GNU/Linux⠀➾ o ⚓ Linux Made Simple ☛ 2025-05-04_[Older]_Linux_Weekly_Roundup #323⠀⇛ o § Kernel Space⠀➾ # ⚓ ZDNet ☛ Linux_drops_support_for_486_and_early_Pentium processors_-_20_years_after_Microsoft⠀⇛ RIP, 486 processor. You've had a long run since Intel released you back in 1989. While Microsoft stopped supporting you with the release of Windows XP in 2001, Linux kept you alive and well for another 20+ years. But all good things must come to an end, and with the forthcoming release of the Linux 6.15 kernel, the 486 and the first Pentium processors will be sunsetted. Why? Linus Torvalds wrote recently on the Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML), "I really get the feeling that it's time to leave i486 support behind. There's zero real reason for anybody to waste one second of development effort on this kind of issue." * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o § Fedora Family / IBM⠀➾ # ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ From_questions_to_clarity:_empowering telco_operations_teams_with_better_observability⠀⇛ Modern service provider environments are complex, with distributed deployments handling massive traffic loads across varying latency conditions. While service providers invest heavily in distributed infrastructure, and proprietary solutions that isolate data many overlook a critical component: unified observability. The challenge isn't just about monitoring any more. It's about extracting trustworthy and usable intelligence from a nonstop deluge of operational data to understand the overall health of the network and services so that issues can be identified and corrected in a timely manner. # ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Edge_in_telecommunications:_8_articles to_read_now⠀⇛ This article by Amy Fredj discusses the importance of resilience and availability for telco companies as they transition to cloud-based infrastructure. It explains the benefits for telcos, including flexibility, scalability and cost-efficiency. Just as importantly, the article explains why this transition is happening and what problems telco companies are attempting to resolve with new and open source technology like Red Hat OpenShift and Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform. o § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ # ⚓ Liliputing ☛ DC-ROMA_launches_a_$349_RISC-V_mainboard_with an_8-core_CPU_and_50_TOPS_of_AI_performance_and_Ubuntu_24.04 LTS_support⠀⇛ Deep Computing’s new DC-ROMA RISC-V AI PC is a single-board computer with an ESWIN 7702X octa-core processor featuring SiFive P5550 RISC-V RV64GC CPU cores with support for frequencies up to 2GHz, a GPU with support for hardware-accelerated 3D graphics, and an NPU that delivers up to 40 TOPS of AI performance. According to Deep Computing, the system supports up to 50 TOPS when you leverage the CPU, NPU, and GPU together. First announced earlier this year, the DC-ROMA RISC-V AI PC is now available for purchase for $349. That price gets you a computer with 32GB of RAM and a Cooler Master case. But you can also pop the mainboard out of the case and fit it into a Framework Laptop 13 if you’d rather use this as the brains of a laptop. * § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ o § FSFE⠀➾ # ⚓ FSFE ☛ 2025-05-06_[Older]_DMA_+++_LLW_2025_+++_PMPC +++SFP⠀⇛ * § Windows TCO / Windows Bot Nets⠀➾ o ⚓ Security Week ☛ LockBit_Ransomware_Admin_Panel_Hacked,_Leaks Reveal_Inside_Details⠀⇛ Searchlight Cyber has identified 208 conversations between LockBit affiliates and victims. The messages, which range between December 2024 and April 2025, could be “valuable for learning more about how LockBit’s affiliates negotiate with their victims”. Indeed, Rapid7’s Beek pointed out that the leaked chats show how aggressive LockBit affiliates were during ransom negotiations. o ⚓ Cyble Inc ☛ PowerSchool_Data_Breach_Leads_To_TDSB_Extortion Threat⠀⇛ In late December 2024, between the 22nd and 28th, PowerSchool—an education technology company whose software is used by more than 6,500 school districts and institutions across North America—was compromised in a ransomware attack. The breach affected numerous schools, including Ontario’s largest school board, the TDSB. PowerSchool notified its clients, including TDSB, of the incident on January 7, 2025. At the time, the company took swift action, including paying a ransom to the threat actor. In return, the hacker provided a video purportedly showing the deletion of the stolen data, leading PowerSchool to believe the threat had been neutralized. o ⚓ Tripwire ☛ LockBit_Ransomware_Gang_Breached,_Secrets_Exposed⠀⇛ The infamous ransomware-as-a-service (RaaS) operation, which has been behind some of the highest-profile ransomware attacks in history, has itself been breached and had its secrets spilt for anybody to see. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 3071 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/05/10/Web_Browsers_Raspberry_Pi_Feeds_and_Firefox.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/05/10/Web_Browsers_Raspberry_Pi_Feeds_and_Firefox.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Web Browsers: Raspberry Pi, Feeds, and Firefox⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 10, 2025 * ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ Raspberry_Pi_Connect_is_out_of_beta:_simple_remote access,_now_even_better⠀⇛ Starting with version 2.5, the Connect client now holds a single long-lived HTTP connection to a Raspberry Pi server. Now when you click the “Connect” button on connect.raspberrypi.com, an event is broadcast to the device to wake it up and start the process of establishing a connection. * ⚓ Joel Chrono ☛ Trying_to_organize_my_feeds⠀⇛ Anyway, I don’t think three categories is enough for the volume of blog posts I get every week. I could trim down the feeds, let go of some of them that I don’t follow that much. But that’s too easy. I’ve created a few categories that I’ll try to improve over time, right now it’s something like this: [...] * § Mozilla⠀➾ o ⚓ Mozilla ☛ Mozilla_Addons_Blog:_New_Extension_Data_Consent Experience_now_available_in_Firefox_Nightly⠀⇛ In a previous blog post I explained that we’re working to streamline_the_data_consent_experience_for_extensions and allow users to consent to sharing data with extensions directly in the Firefox add-on installation flow itself — rather than during a separate post-install experience and asking developers to build their own custom consent experiences, which is the case today. ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 3128 ➮ Generation completed at 02:50, i.e. 26 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
