Making the right choice for what you need on your PC is a daunting task. Heading to DistroWatch and randomly picking out a top version is not a good idea. There are many things to consider, test, and sort out before installing a version of Linux. I have made many mistakes when it comes to choosing a version of Linux for my PC. I have older PCs that can be revitalized by installing Linux on them so they don't just sit there and become e- waste. I can always find another way to repurpose an old computer with Windows, but it’s better to have what feels like a new, productive system. Plus, it’s fun to dust off that old machine and make it new again.

image editors for a very long time. I've used them for article images, book covers, promos, flyers, and just about everything in between. Some might expect I'd be turning to an operating system like MacOS or Windows for image editing. But they'd be wrong. Linux has plenty of image editing tools, and although not all of them are created equal, each serves a worthwhile purpose. From my perspective, four image editors available for Linux are worth your time and effort. Let's dive in and see what there is to see. * ⚓ Real Linux User ☛ First_Look_at_RapidRAW:_A_Promising_RAW_Photo_Editor for_Linux⠀⇛ Anyone interested in photography and also likes to use GNU/ Linux and open-source software has probably encountered a familiar dilemma: [...] * ⚓ Linux Handbook ☛ LHB_GNU/Linux_Digest_#25.21:_firewalld,_fail2ban,_find command,_self-hosted_file_management⠀⇛ A-W-S * ⚓ Drew DeVault ☛ What's_new_with_Himitsu_0.9?⠀⇛ Last week, Armin and I worked together on the latest release of Himitsu, a “secret storage manager” for Linux. * ⚓ Announcing_Istio_1.25.4⠀⇛ This release contains bug fixes to improve robustness. This release note describes what’s different between Istio 1.25.3 and Istio 1.25.4. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 354 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/08/09/Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Software.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/08/09/Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Software.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Best Free and Open Source Software⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Aug 09, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Buffer_text⦈_ * ⚓ Buffer_-_embrace_ephemeral_text_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Celebrating transience, Buffer provides a minimal editing space for all those things that don’t need keeping. It’s designed for keyboard workflows on desktop. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ Ten_Forward_-_control_a_NAT-PMP_gateway_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Ten Forward allows you to request port forwarding to your gateway. It allows you to create multiple mapping configurations, which can individually be requested. This tool will allow you to run a local game server (minecraft LAN, Mindustry, Stardew valley., etc..) and make it accessible online. It is tested with the NAT-PMP enabled ProtonVPN, and should be compatible with any other NAT-PMP capable gateway. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ empress_-_MPRIS_media_controls_made_simple_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ empress is a D-Bus MPRIS daemon for controlling media players. This tool functions as a simple command-line abstraction over the D-Bus MPRIS specification which allows for querying and controlling media players. It functions similarly to playerctl, but features more basic controls and a more complex method of tracking which player you want to control. empress uses its own D-Bus daemon to keep track of which players are currently playing (and which players have been updated the most recently), and uses this information to determine you wanted to pause Spotify rather than playing a minimized YouTube video. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ 14_Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Linux_WebRTC_Tools_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ WebRTC is real-time communication for the web, enabling video, voice, and data transfer between peers using an open standard. It allows audio and video communication and streaming to work inside web pages by allowing direct peer-to-peer communication, eliminating the need to install plugins or download native apps. ICE, STUN and TURN are the NAT traversal techniques used to connect to remote peer. * ⚓ Redocly_CLI_-_lint_OpenAPI_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Redocly CLI is an all-in-one OpenAPI utility. It builds, manages, improves, and quality-checks your OpenAPI descriptions, all of which comes in handy for various phases of the API Lifecycle. Create your own rulesets to make API governance easy, publish beautiful API reference documentation, and more. Supports OpenAPI 3.1, 3.0 and OpenAPI 2.0 (legacy Swagger), AsyncAPI 3.0 and 2.6, Arazzo 1.0. The Redocly CLI also supports many of the other operations you need to be successful working with OpenAPI. API linting, enhancement, bundling and other tools are also available as part of this CLI tool. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ Spectral_-_flexible_JSON/YAML_linter_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Spectral is a flexible JSON/YAML linter for creating automated style guides, with baked in support for OpenAPI (v3.1, v3.0, and v2.0), Arazzo v1.0, as well as AsyncAPI v2.x. Spectral, being a generic YAML/JSON linter, needs a ruleset to lint files. A ruleset is a JSON, YAML, or JavaScript/TypeScript file (often the file is called .spectral.yaml for a YAML ruleset) that contains a collection of rules, which can be used to lint other JSON or YAML files such as an API description. Linting isn’t just about validating OpenAPI or JSON Schema documents against specifications. It’s for enforcing style guides to ensure that your APIs are consistent, valid, and of high quality. This is free and open source software. ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⢋⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⡁⠔⠊⣡⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⡟⢉⠤⠒⣉⠤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⡠⠔⢊⡠⠒⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠋⠁⠀⣿⡿⡿⣿⣽⣻⣇⠤⠂⡁⠔⠚⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠛⠿⣿⣿⠿⠋⠁⣘⢿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠋⠉⠟⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⢉⡤⠒⢉⠤⠒⡉⠿⠋⠁⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠤⡚⣱⣾⣿⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡿⠛⣁⠄⢊⣁⠄⢊⡠⠐⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⢻⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⢉⠠⠒⢉⠤⠂⠁⣀⣤⠶⣇⠀⠀⠀⣿⠃⠈⠛⠿⠟⠉⢠⣶⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⢰⣷⠾⠉⢸⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣟⡡⠔⠈⠀⣠⣴⠾⠋⡡⠔⣧⠀⠀⢰⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⡿⠟⠉⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠐⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⢴⢸⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⢀⣤⣶⣿⣿⡤⠒⣁⠤⠚⣿⠀⠀⣼⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⢄⣸⡏⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⢰⡷⡾⠛⢸⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣾⡟⢿⣿⣷⣿⠖⢊⡠⠖⢉⣽⡇⢰⣟⣟⡄⡀⠀⠀⠸⠙⣋⣤⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⢈⡁⣐⡾⢸⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣧⣸⣾⡟⠘⣿⡏⣡⠤⠊⡡⠴⣷⣶⠉⠉⠙⣽⣶⣤⠲⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⢸⠿⢛⡡⣌⠁⠙⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⡇⠃⠘⢸⣯⡤⠒⣉⠤⠚⣉⣯⡧⡀⠀⢹⠀⠀⠀⢠⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣄⣤⣖⣝⠏⠉⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣽⢂⡴⠖⢋⡡⠔⢊⡠⠖⢉⠠⠚⣿⣇⠀⠈⠀⠀⣀⡹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⡟⢉⠤⠒⢉⠤⠊⣡⠔⠊⡡⠔⢊⡡⠿⣦⡀⠀⢀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣗⣤⢄⣠⣰⢿⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⡤⠔⢊⡠⠐⠉⡠⠒⣉⠤⠚⣁⠄⠊⣡⣿⢶⣻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⣿⣭⣴⣼⢞⠀⠀⢀⣠⡶⣄⠀⠈⢷⣎⡁⠔⢊⡠⠔⢊⡠⠖⢉⣠⣶⢿⣻⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡯⣤⣖⣓⣿⣷⣿⣗⣄⠀⠻⣦⠂⣉⠤⠂⣡⣴⣾⣿⣯⣻⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⣌⠻⣧⣴⣿⣯⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 514 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/08/09/Debian_13_Trixie_Is_Now_Available_for_Download_Here_s_What_s_Ne.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/08/09/Debian_13_Trixie_Is_Now_Available_for_Download_Here_s_What_s_Ne.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Debian 13 “Trixie” Is Now Available for Download, Here’s What’s New⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Marius Nestor on Aug 09, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Debian_13⦈_ More than two years in the making, Debian 13 “Trixie” is finally here, powered by the long-term supported Linux 6.12 LTS kernel series, which brings new and updated drivers to support modern hardware.

For the first time, Debian officially supports the 64-bit RISC-V (riscv64) architecture. This means that owners of compatible RISC-V hardware can now enjoy the same Debian experience as users on more established platforms, complete with the full breadth of packages and long-term support. Of course, Trixie also continues to offer robust support for other architectures, including amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, ppc64el, and s390x. On 64- bit PCs, partial i386 userland support remains available — but with reduced scope, as i386 has been demoted to legacy status.

For organizations using Red_Hat_Satellite, the upgrade process can be centrally managed, ensuring consistency and compliance across multiple systems. Managing enterprise Linux systems at scale can be complex, especially when dealing with patching, compliance, and major version upgrades. Satellite and Leapp are two powerful tools designed to simplify these tasks. Leapp is an open source upgrade framework to automate and simplify in-place major version upgrades of RHEL systems. Unlike traditional manual upgrades or disruptive migration approaches, Leapp performs pre-upgrade checks, resolves compatibility issues, and executes the upgrade with minimal downtime—all while preserving system configurations and applications. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 801 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/08/09/Free_Libre_and_Open_Source_Software_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/08/09/Free_Libre_and_Open_Source_Software_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Free, Libre, and Open Source Software Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 09, 2025 * ⚓ Mathieu Aumont ☛ Garage_a_fast_and_minimal_S3_server_for_home.⠀⇛ In the last decade, Amazon has established S3 - Simple Storage Service - as the de facto standard for object storage.

HDR is inherently linked to luminance (brightness, but ignoring human perception) which makes it an important parameter for us that we would like to be in control of. One reason is rather stupid. Most external HDR displays refuse to let the user control the luminance in their on-screen- display (OSD) if the display is in HDR mode. Why? Good question. Read my previous_blog_post. * ⚓ GNOME ☛ Steven_Deobald:_2025-08-08_GNOME_Foundation_Update⠀⇛ Very unfortunately, most of my past two weeks have been spent on “opaque things.” Let’s just label that whole bundle “bureaucracy” for now. * ⚓ This Week in GNOME ☛ This_Week_in_GNOME:_#211_Handling_Brightness⠀⇛ Update on what happened across the GNOME project in the week from August 01 to August 08. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1176 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/08/09/GNU_Linux_and_BSD_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/08/09/GNU_Linux_and_BSD_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ GNU/Linux and BSD Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 09, 2025 * § Audiocasts/Shows⠀➾ o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Hackaday_Podcast_Episode_332:_5_Axes_Are_Better_Than 3,_Hacking_Your_Behavior,_And_The_Man_Who_Made_Models⠀⇛ Elliot and Dan got together this week for a review of the week’s hacking literature, and there was plenty to discuss. We addressed several burning questions, such as why digital microscopes are so terrible, why computer systems seem to have so much trouble with names, and if a thermal receipt printer can cure ADHD. * § Kernel Space⠀➾ o ⚓ WCCF Tech ☛ Intel_Is_Reportedly_Preparing_Arc_B380;_Adds_New Battlemage_PCI_ID_to_Linux_Kernel⠀⇛ Intel's new offering in the Battlemage lineup is supposedly a budget GPU, which should be succeeding the Arc A380. The whereabouts of the Arc B770 might be unknown at the moment, but it appears that Intel may not just be working on a faster mainstream consumer Arc Battlemage GPU but also on an entry-level card. What we are seeing is Intel preparing a new GPU, as was spotted recently in the Linux Kernel driver patches with the PCI ID 0xE209. * § Graphics Stack⠀➾ o ⚓ Frame_gen_tool_for_Linux_gets_up_to_4x_performance_boost_with_new feature,_“mainly”_on_AMD_graphics_cards⠀⇛ In early July, a frame generation on Linux was made available to everyone thanks to a fan-made port of Lossless Scaling, the widely popular upscaling and frame gen tool. It’s just the FG aspect of LS that came to Linux thanks to modder PancakeTAS, but it has proven to be a success. A new update to the app (called lsfg-vk) has arrived with FP16 acceleration for a performance boost. There was a little bit of controversy surrounding the launch and its implementation on the Steam Deck via a Decky plugin, but that was soon cleared up. FP16 acceleration arrives after a recent pull request on GitHub and drops the DXVK dependency due to not being compatible – a workaround was found instead. * § Desktop Environments (DE)/Window Managers (WM)⠀➾ o § K Desktop Environment/KDE SC/Qt⠀➾ # ⚓ Harald Sitter ☛ Filelight_Speed_on_Windows⠀⇛ As of a couple days ago Filelight on backdoored Windows is performing its search many times faster than before. Go check it out! https://apps.kde.org/filelight/ It’s shocking that it was slow to begin with… A few years ago I rewrote the Filelight file walking logic to use native API for GNU/Linux and Windows. I thought I did a pretty good job of it and speed wasn’t too shabby. * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o ⚓ Barry Kauler ☛ Another_hang_at_bootup_fixed⠀⇛ This has been so fustrating. We had Xorg crashing after the desktop was running: "Found cause crash Compaq Presario" https://bkhome.org/news/202507/found-cause-crash-compaq- presario.html ...that I fixed by compiling libpciaccess with the patch. Fixed, but what has been really frustrating is hanging sooner, before Xorg runs. It turned out that the 'pidof' utility was hanging: [...] o § BSD⠀➾ # ⚓ Undeadly ☛ Call_for_testing:_USB_webcams⠀⇛ A new opportunity for you to help improve the upcoming OpenBSD 7.8 release has turned up. If YOU have a USB webcam you are using or would like to use with our favorite operating system, Kirill Korinsky (kirill@) would like to hear from you after testing recent snapshots. o § SUSE/OpenSUSE⠀➾ # ⚓ Dominique Leuenberger ☛ Tumbleweed_–_Review_of_the_weeks 2025/31_&_32⠀⇛ Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, Because August 1st is Switzerland’s national holiday, I took the day off last Friday — which is my excuse for skipping last week’s review. The most noteworthy technical change was mostly invisible: we switched FTP tree generation from product- builder to product-composer. This is essentially a rewrite, trimming years of accumulated features back to a more manageable set. One side effect is that product descriptions are now in YAML instead of XML — easier on the eyes. The published FTP tree looks largely unchanged, aside from a brief bug where appstream metadata wasn’t registered, causing software centers like Discover and GNOME Software to miss it (now fixed). The main visible change affects ARM users: we merged the FTP trees for armv6, armv7, and aarch64 into a single tree under the ports/aarch64 namespace. This saves several gigabytes on our mirrors by sharing large noarch packages. o § Canonical/Ubuntu Family⠀➾ # ⚓ Ubuntu ☛ ROS_Noetic_is_EOL_–_take_action_to_maintain_fleet security⠀⇛ Canonical has added Noetic to its ROS ESM service, which delivers ongoing security updates and critical fixes for ROS packages. This allows developers to confidently continue using EOL ROS distributions, such as Kinetic, Melodic, Foxy, and now Noetic, well beyond their upstream support periods. With ROS ESM, they’ll receive backported CVE patches, bug fixes, and essential updates aligned with Canonical’s long-term maintenance standards. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1366 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/08/09/GNU_Linux_and_More.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/08/09/GNU_Linux_and_More.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ GNU/Linux and More⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Aug 09, 2025 * ⚓ Linux Made Simple ☛ 2025-08-03_[Older]_Linux_Weekly_Roundup_#336⠀⇛ * § Instructionals/Technical⠀➾ o ⚓ Linux Made Simple ☛ 2025-08-03_[Older]_How_to_install_the Chromium_browser_on_Kubuntu_24.04⠀⇛ o ⚓ 2025-08-04_[Older]_How_to_install_the_Chromium_browser_on_Kubuntu 24.04⠀⇛ * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o § Debian Family⠀➾ # ⚓ Debian ☛ 2025-08-03_[Older]_DebConf25_closes_in_Brest_and DebConf26_announced⠀⇛ * § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ o § FSFE⠀➾ # ⚓ FSFE ☛ 2025-07-31_[Older]_Help_the_FSFE_to_connect_with representatives [Ed: Microsoft group front]⠀⇛ # ⚓ FSFE ☛ 2025-08-06_[Older]_MP_Explore_+++_CRA_questionnaire +++_DMA_news⠀⇛ o § Programming/Development⠀➾ # § Perl / Raku⠀➾ # ⚓ The Weekly Challenge ☛ 2025-08-06_[Older] Serialisation_in_Perl⠀⇛ # ⚓ The Weekly Challenge ☛ 2025-08-07_[Older]_Caching_in Perl⠀⇛ # § Python⠀➾ # ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ The_problem_of_Python's version_dependent_paths_for_packages⠀⇛ A somewhat famous thing about Python is that more or less all of the official ways to install packages put them into somewhere on the filesystem that contains the Python series version (which is things like '3.13' but not '3.13.5'). This is true for site packages, for 'pip install --user' (to the extent that it still works), and for virtual environments, however you manage them. And this is a problem because it means that any time you change to a new release, such as going from 3.12 to 3.13, all of your installed packages disappear (unless you keep around the old Python version and keep your virtual environments and so on using it). ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1459 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/08/09/HandBrake_1_10_Open_Source_Video_Transcoder_Brings_New_Social_1.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/08/09/HandBrake_1_10_Open_Source_Video_Transcoder_Brings_New_Social_1.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ HandBrake 1.10 Open-Source Video Transcoder Brings New “Social 10MB” Presets⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Marius Nestor on Aug 09, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇HandBrake_1.10⦈_ Highlights of HandBrake 1.10 include new “Social 10MB” presets, a new option to choose the encoder color range, a new command-line option to disable Dolby Vision and HDR10+ passthru, a new option to disable audio track names passthru and autonaming, and a new option to disable subtitle track names passthru.

I like the consistent approach to ordinary users having a stable, rounded desktop experience. I like the security mindset when it comes to unverified applications. You can customize the system to your taste. The look and feel aren't mindblowing, but you get a fairly okay workspace, with a mix of old and so-called modern elements, or rather, ergonomic and anti-ergonomic ones. Not the razor-sharp bundle from a decade back, but functional, solid. There were some problems, too. Most of them stem from overly complicated defaults, and the reliance of various GTK bits and pieces, plus an obscure set of programs. Display scaling is a bit meh, and there isn't enough visual contrast in any one of the latest Mint themes. The performance can also be better. Overall, Linux Mint Cinnamon feels like an amalgamation of opposing ideas, the mid-2010 desktop, which is really the pinnacle of simple usage, and trying to keep up with the newer times, which require a redesign for the sake of it. Such energy would better be invested in making the software program shine, tweaking performance, and making the first-time experience a bit more familiar. Few people will feel comfortable with obscurely named tools and apps that are only used in this one distro. My general impression stands. Linux Mint has lost some of its edge. The results are partially self-inflicted, but it is also the fact Linux ain't so scary no more. Mint also carries the Ubuntu baggage, for better or worse. So, if you ask me, it's a jolly good alternative to stock Gnome, but generally, I find Plasma-clad desktops to offer an ever so slightly more elegant experience. And with those words, I bid Xia farewell.

Keep in mind that 12.0 is a rolling release version—anyone wanting to stay on the cutting edge should plan to jump to MariaDB 12.1.2 once it arrives. Much of the work in this update centers on storage engines—especially InnoDB and Aria. For instance, MariaDB tackled corruption issues involving the adaptive hash index, problems shrinking the buffer pool, and potential server hangs tied to specific memory scenarios.

The fact that it's less repairable and upgradeable than the company's laptops is odd, but it's the cost of using a mobile processor, which is soldered to the board, along with soldered RAM (which is effectively necessary for the chip the team chose). It's not wrong, but it will likely make the system less appealing for many potential buyers who aren’t specifically interested in AI. * ⚓ 37signals LLC ☛ The_Framework_Desktop_is_a_beast⠀⇛ So if you just want the best, small computer that runs Linux superbly well out of the box, you should buy the Framework Desktop.

Genatech launched the XPI family in 2018, starting with the XPI-S905X single board computer, which follows the Raspberry Pi 3 form factor. * ⚓ Framework Computer BV ☛ Framework_Desktop_press_reviews_are_live!⠀⇛ Press reviews of Framework Desktop are now live, and we’re starting shipments of Batch 1 pre-orders next week! This was the largest set of press units we’ve ever sent out for a product launch, both because so many reviewers wanted to try it out and because we wanted to show just how incredibly capable Ryzen AI Max is across a range of use cases. The reviews and videos posted today cover gaming, DIY PC building, machine learning, homelab, Linux workstation, and general PC productivity scenarios. Reviewers called out the multi-core performance, the workloads that 128GB of memory can enable, how quiet the system is both at idle and under load, and surprise at just how tiny it is.

According to new research, those worries may also extend to one of the world’s most popular consumer technology companies.  * ⚓ LWN ☛ Some_turbulence_at_CalyxOS⠀⇛ CalyxOS is an Android distribution that claims a focus on privacy and security. So when an announcement from the project begins by saying "we want to assure you that we have no reason to believe the security of CalyxOS and its signing keys have been compromised", chances are that good things are not happening. * ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ DARPA’s_Hey_Hi_(AI)_Cyber_Challenge_reveals_winning models_for_automated_vulnerability_discovery_and_patching⠀⇛ The initiative seeks to patch vulnerabilities in open-source code before they are exploited by would-be attackers. Now comes the hard part — putting the systems to the test in the real world. * ⚓ OpenSSF (Linux Foundation) ☛ From_Beginner_to_Builder:_Understanding OpenSSF_Community_and_Working_Groups⠀⇛ The Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF) serves as the global hub for collaborative work on securing the software supply chain. Whether you’re an open-source maintainer, a security engineer, a student, or someone passionate about public digital infrastructure, OpenSSF invites you to participate. There are no gatekeepers, no matter where you work.

Firstly, use an editor such as LibreOffice that natively supports the format without conversion. * ⚓ Daniel Stenberg ☛ HTTP_is_not_simple⠀⇛ I don’t believe anyone has tried to claim that HTTP/2 or HTTP/ 3 are simple. In order to properly implement version two or three, you pretty much have to also implement version one so in that regard they are accumulating complexity and bring quite a lot of extra challenges in their own respective specifications. Let me elaborate on some aspects of the HTTP/1 protocol that make me say it is not simple. * ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ Navigating_the_EU's_new_Radio_Equipment_Directive:_how Raspberry_Pi_provides_an_industrial_advantage⠀⇛ The EU Radio Equipment Directive (2014/53/EU) ensures that all radio-enabled equipment sold in Europe meets essential requirements for safety, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and spectrum usage, and its provisions will be familiar to many manufacturers. However, a recent Delegated Act (2022/30/EU) expands this framework. It includes three new essential cybersecurity requirements for all internet-connected radio equipment, including industrial devices: [...] * ⚓ The Record ☛ CISA_pledges_to_continue_backing_CVE_Program_after_April funding_fiasco⠀⇛ At the Black Hat cybersecurity conference in Las Vegas, two leaders from the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) were asked about the CVE Program’s future — which was thrown into doubt amid a flurry of high-profile cybersecurity contract cancellations following President Donald Trump’s inauguration. * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ Abuse_systems_should_handle_email_reports_that use_MIME_message/rfc822_parts⠀⇛ I think it's perfectly fine and maybe even praiseworthy when email abuse handling systems (and people) are willing to accept these literal plaintext format forwarded spam messages. The more formats you accept abuse reports in, the better. But every abuse handling system should accept MIME message/rfc822 format messages too, as a minimum thing. Not just because it's a standard, but also because it's what a certain amount of mail clients will produce by default if you ask them to forward a message.

git-remote- notmuch⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ Based on an idea and ruby_implementation by Felipe Contreras, I have been developing a git_remote_helper for notmuch. I will soon post an updated version of the patchset to the notmuch mailing list (I wanted to refer to this post in my email). In this blog post I'll outline my experiments with using that tool, along with git-annex to store (and sync) a moderate sized email store along with its notmuch metadata. * ⚓ dwaves.de ☛ GNU/Linux_Ubuntu_24_Ubuntu_24_how_to_disable_time_consuming wait-online.service_and_nerve_wrecking_dong_system_sounds_(when_in terminal_and_hitting_tab)_+_how_to_disable_automatic_screensaver_screen lock_+_how_to_install_NVIDIA_GPU_drivers⠀⇛ * § idroot⠀➾ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Nextcloud_on_Rocky_GNU/Linux_10⠀⇛ Setting up your own cloud storage solution has never been more important. Nextcloud offers a robust, open-source alternative to commercial cloud services like Surveillance Giant Google Drive or Dropbox. When combined with Rocky GNU/Linux 10, you get enterprise-grade reliability and security for your personal or business data storage needs. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ YaST_System_Management_openSUSE⠀⇛ YaST (Yet another Setup Tool) stands as openSUSE’s flagship system administration interface, serving as the central hub for installation, configuration, and ongoing management tasks. This powerful tool has evolved into what many consider the “Swiss Army knife” of GNU/Linux system administration, offering unprecedented control over every aspect of your openSUSE system. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Steam_on_AlmaLinux_10⠀⇛ Gaming on GNU/Linux has evolved dramatically over the past decade. Steam, Valve’s digital distribution platform, has transformed from a Windows-exclusive service into a powerhouse that brings thousands of games to GNU/Linux systems. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Pixeluvo_on_Fedora_42⠀⇛ Installing professional image editing software on GNU/ Linux distributions has become increasingly accessible, with Fedora 42 offering excellent support for creative applications. Pixeluvo stands out as a premium image editor that bridges the gap between complex tools like GIMP and simpler alternatives, providing a streamlined yet powerful solution for GNU/Linux users. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_KubeSphere_on_Fedora_42⠀⇛ Container orchestration has revolutionized modern application deployment, and KubeSphere stands as one of the most comprehensive Kubernetes management platforms available today. When paired with Fedora 42’s cutting- edge container technologies and robust enterprise features, KubeSphere provides an unparalleled cloud- native application management experience. * ⚓ [Inside_LBS_Ⅱ]_Dividing_and_Conquering_Linux_High-Capacity_SSD_Support with_LBS⠀⇛ The demand for larger capacity drives requires the adoption of larger IUs. This creates a challenge for software stacks: how can drives with larger IUs be optimally adopted without any modifications to software applications? Is this possible? Intel's 2018 white paper, titled "Achieving optimal performance & endurance on coarse indirection unit SSDs" about the topic on QLC suggests that software applications should use direct I/ O instead of buffered I/O to align writes to the IU and that applications should also use allocators for buffers for writes to data which also allow explicit alignment requirements such as the libc posix_memalign(). Intel's suggestions require software applications to be modified to be aware of the IU and support for buffered I/O is not possible. Many workloads need to use buffered I/O, provided the Linux page cache, either because of software limitations such as in the case of PostgreSQL or because of other requirements such as when working with specific large data set AI workloads. One way to grow support for large IUs is to require support for larger LBA formats. However, that would first require confidence that existing workloads are aligning writes to the IU through I/ O introspection. Analysis is required to prove that this is possible first. Using a larger LBA format is also a non- backward compatible and non-scalable solution. Drive capacities would have to be reduced if smaller LBA formats were to be used, and a complete analysis of changes required in standards would be required. With ever increasing HC SSDs requiring an ever-increasing LBA size, the host SW would need to be written to dynamically operate across various numerous SSD LBA sizes concurrently. Can anything be done to avoid any software application changes while also supporting buffered I/O without requiring the industry to move to a new LBA format? ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 2776 ➮ Generation completed at 02:50, i.e. 26 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
