The experience, as usual, was amazing. Unlike in previous years, there was a huge emphasis on styling, unification, and graphical work. This whole wave of talks was invigorating. As a side note, this year our A/V was vastly improved and this should make it much easier for our contributors and viewers online to see and understand what we did. As part of the organization, I will help process these recordings and make sure they are awesome. Once again I spoke on the progress with the design system. This year’s talk focused on our progress on icons. Definitively, one of the lengthiest pieces of work coming from the Foundations portion of the design system. * § Education⠀➾ o ⚓ [Repeat] Akseli Lahtinen ☛ Akademy_2025_-_My_first_talk!⠀⇛ Once again, all KDE nerds had their yearly gathering around somewhere in the world. We call this gathering Akademy and this year it was in Berlin. I don't really have anything in-depth to share, except for my first talk I had. I spent a lot of time listening to talks and chilling at BoFs. Since I was with my wife, we also went around Berlin looking for fun things, such as the Aquarium at the zoo.

Usually this goes okay, but DNF5 has a general problem with script output and when I did a test upgrade from Fedora 41 to Fedora 42 on a virtual machine, it generated a huge amount of repeated output from a script run by selinux-policy-targeted, repeatedly reporting "Old compiled fcontext format, skipping" for various .bin files in /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files. The volume of output made the rest of DNF's output essentially unreadable. I would like to avoid this when I actually upgrade my office and home workstations to Fedora 42 (which I still haven't done, partly because of this issue). * ⚓ Kevin_Fenzi:_Misc_infra_bits_from_2nd_week_of_sept_2025⠀⇛ Welcome to saturday!

In systemd, the target of most actions are “units”, which are resources that systemd knows how to manage. Units are categorized by the type of resource they represent and they are defined with files known as unit files. The type of each unit can be inferred from the suffix on the end of the file. A unit file contains configuration directives that describe the unit and define its behavior. Several systemctl commands work with unit files in the background. This article picks some useful CLI and TUI tools that make configuring systemd much easier. Here’s our verdict captured in a legendary LinuxLinks-style ratings chart. Only free and open source software is eligible for inclusion here. * ⚓ aurto_-_Arch_Linux_AUR_tool_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ aurto is an Arch Linux AUR tool for managing an auto-updating local ‘aurto’ package repository using aurutils.

Of course, the question is still interesting, so I did some benchmarks. Since the difference is really small between running without any extras, with data checksums turned on, and with both encryption and checksums turned on, we need to pick a configuration that will stress-test these features the most. So in the spirit of making_PostgreSQL_deliberately_run_slow, I went with only 1MB of shared_buffers with a pgbench workload of scale factor 50. The 770MB of database size will easily fit into RAM. However, having such a small buffer cache setting will cause a lot of cache misses with pages re-read from the OS disk cache, checksums checked, and the page decrypted again. o § Desktop Environments (DE)/Window Managers (WM)⠀➾ # § GNOME Desktop/GTK⠀➾ # ⚓ Alley_Chaggar:_Final_Report⠀⇛ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Intro: ⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ Hi everyone, it’s the end of GSoc!

At first glance, it looks like any other WiFi IR blasters, but what makes it interesting is that the device is built on an open architecture using the XIAO ESP32C3 module and runs on ESPHome, working natively with the Home Assistant open-source home automation platform. As usual, SeeedStudio gives access to the source code, so it’s super convenient if you want to tweak the functions yourself to fit various needs. For those who are new to Smart IR, it’s a device that acts as an infrared (IR) control hub. * ⚓ Linux Gizmos ☛ Luckfox_PicoKVM_Lightweight_IP_KVM_Remote_Management Tool⠀⇛ The device is powered by a Rockchip RV1106G3 processor featuring a single ARM Cortex-A7 core running at 1.2 GHz.

It has come a long way towards becoming a usable tool by adding quality-of-life features to foster its adoption. Think optimization of spec verification and improved user experience. During my GSoC 2025 Haskell.org project with Tweag, I worked on a seemingly small but impactful feature: allowing LH’s type and predicate aliases to be written in qualified form. That is, being able to write Foo.Nat instead of only just Nat, like we can for regular Haskell type aliases. In this post, I introduce these annotations and their uses, walk through some of the design decisions, and share how I approached the implementation. * ⚓ Avinash Sajjanshetty ☛ Setsum_-_order_agnostic,_additive,_subtractive checksum⠀⇛ One naive (rather horrible) approach is to dump both states and compare them directly. It’s expensive, impractical, and doesn’t scale. Instead, you can maintain checksums that update with each operation. When you’re done, just compare the checksums; if they match, you’re in sync. That’s why distributed databases like Cassandra use Merkle trees for the same purpose. Setsum is similar but has some nice properties that make it attractive over Merkle trees. They can be computed incrementally; the cost only depends on the change being applied, not the whole dataset. I also find them attractive because they let you remove items as well. * § Perl / Raku⠀➾ o ⚓ The Weekly Challenge ☛ 2025-09-03_[Older]_CVE-2025-40927⠀⇛ o ⚓ The Weekly Challenge ☛ 2025-09-08_[Older]_Caching_using_CHI⠀⇛ o ⚓ Perl ☛ 2025-09-05_[Older]_A_Quiz_about_Operator_Priorities⠀⇛ * § Python⠀➾ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Delete_Characters_from_String_in_Python⠀⇛ String manipulation stands as one of the most fundamental operations in Python programming.

The details are heavy but the important part is that the cost of lighting is no longer proportional to number of polygons in the scene. Instead, it is based on a “fixed” g-buffer size. The buffer is proportional to the render resolution. * § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ o ⚓ The Register UK ☛ CISA_attempts_to_assert_control_over_CVE_in vision_outline⠀⇛ CISA published a two-page summary of its vision board for CVE's future this week, talking it up like a Taylor Swift tour: 2025, according to CISA, is the year CVE leaves its "growth era" for a "quality era" that CISA appears intent on dominating.

However, providing notifications has proven a challenge across industry.

I've been assessing my own workflows, scanning repositories. and looking up use-cases, and I found three I think you ought to check out. When I'm identifying software to recommend, I look for well-established apps that are easy to install and are decently useful, at least to somebody out there. Most software is hard to broadly recommend to everyone, so I've tried to keep the software diverse. There's likely at least one you might find interesting enough to install during your free time this weekend. o ⚓ Make Use Of ☛ I_replaced_Google_Drive_with_a_self‑hosted_cloud and_the_freedom_is_worth_it⠀⇛ I have had a love-hate relationship with Google Drive. It's convenient and free up to a point. But it's also Google — the giant monopoly and ad company — and I don't like the feeling that I'm adding to the amount of information they already have about me. I always knew the day would come when I’d have to sever ties with Big Tech. I just didn’t know how until I discovered Nextcloud. Making the shift wasn’t just daunting; it was a conscious choice to trade convenience for control. And the freedom that comes with it is worth every bit of effort. Nextcloud has changed how I think about files and storage. * § WINE or Emulation⠀➾ o ⚓ XDA ☛ This_free_and_open-source_app_runs_any_Windows_app_on_Linux with_ease⠀⇛ If you've ever tried running Windows apps on Linux, you know how challenging it can be. I've been using Wine or WinApps for it, but the results are often hit or miss, and sometimes it raises compatibility issues as well. Similarly, running a whole virtual machine comes with its own challenges, especially on not-so-high-end devices. These often feel like workarounds rather than actual solutions. While I love running Linux and have recently been doing most of my tasks on it, as a long-time Windows user, there are a few Windows-only apps that I simply cannot function without. That's when I began searching for a more effective and manageable way to bridge the gap between my Linux system and Windows applications. On my hunt, I discovered WinBoat — a free, open-source app that surprised me with its ease of installation and use. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1455 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/14/Thank_You_Ricky_Hatton.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/14/Thank_You_Ricky_Hatton.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Thank You, Ricky Hatton⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 14, 2025, updated Sep 14, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Hatton_with_his_trainer_Floyd_Mayweather_Sr._(left),_Manny Pacquiao_(second_from_right)_and_Freddie_Roach,_2009⦈_ Strong person, but inner struggle Ricky Hatton has_died. He is a local legend. He was younger than Rianne. Many people around here still try to digest the news. Blows to the head, depression, and diet issues may have played a role (they're also interconnected), but it's still hard to believe he's gone. Tux Machines has been a Mancunian site since 2013. Next month marks 12 years since it "moved" from the United States, where it had thrived for 9 years (almost a decade). Back then Hatton was still professionally active. Reading_between_the_lines, the death of Hatton was partly brought upon by Hatton himself, directly or indirectly (bad health). If you struggle with depression, reach out and speak out to people. Quoting Amir Khan: "As fighters, we tell ourselves we’re strong — we train, we sweat, we take hits, we get up. But sometimes the hardest fight happens in silence, in the mind. Mental health isn’t weakness. It’s part of being human. And we must talk about it. We must reach out. We must lean on each other." █ ⣿⣿⣿⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣷ ⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⡀⠀⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿ ⣿⣿⡣⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⣀⡀⠀⣀⣀⠀⣀⡀⣤⣠⢤⡤⡤⠀⠀⣿⣶⣶⣦⣴⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⠃⠀⣼⡿⣟⣿⣜⣳⣤⣤⣄⣀⣀⠀⠠⢴⣾⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢐⣖⣲⣖⡖⣶⣿⡿⣿⣏⢿⡿⣭⣽⣯⣽⣯⣯⠇⠀⢻⡟⣿⢹⡇⣿⠟⠀⣿⣾⣡⣿⣇⣟⣿⢸⠿⠧⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠁⠀⠀⢿⣾⡿⣷⣿⣷⣿⡾⣿⡿⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣽⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣧⣿⢿⡯⠿⠟⢾⡷⠇⠿⠿⠿⠟⠿⠀⠀⣭⣥⣬⣭⡬⠽⠶⠶⠿⠶⠶⠶⠶⠶⠶⠛⠛⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⠿⠟⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⡿ ⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠛⠛⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠀ ⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⣄⣤⣤⢤⣤⣴⣴⣴⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣼⣿⣿⢻⡏⣿⣿⣿⡏⣶⣶⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣷⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⣶⣶⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⢿⠿⠸⠟⠿⠿⠿⠹⠿⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣘⣛⣋⣙⣩⣬⣥⣽⣯⣯⣅⠋⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⣭⢥⡬⣭⡅⠀⠀⡀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⣶⣴⣦⡟⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢛⣿⣿⣟⣛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣴⣤⣶⣤⡄⠀⠤⠄⠰ ⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣤⣤⡤⠀⠀⠀⠠⠴⠾⠿⠇⠀⣠⣙⣒⣲⣧⣠⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠛⠛⠙⡛⣛⣉⣉⢉⠉⠁⠀⣠⣾⣶⣶⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣬⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡤⣿⣧⣞ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢌⠛⠿⠿⠟⠂⠀⠐⠒⠒⠰⠶⠶⢶⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣀⡀⢘⣛⣛⡋⣛⣻⡟⠉⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢷⢴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣷ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⢀⣄⠀⠸⣿⠇⣼⣇⢯⡁⠀⣾⣝⢧⣛⡛⠛⢘⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠈⣭⣭⣥⣭⣭⢡⣾⣿⣿⣧⡞⣻⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⢠⣶⣿⠀⠰⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⢻⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣠⣾⣿⣷⣷⠀⠀⠉⣛⣟⠁⠀⢸⣿⣿⠟⠛⠛⠃⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣀⡉⣉⡈⣁⢡⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠀⠤⢆⢹⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⣿⣿⣿ ⠿⠛⠋⠁⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣧⢄⣈⣿⠗⢀⣶⣾⢿⣿⡁⠀⠁⠉⠉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣩⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⣀⣀⢿⡿⠿⠟⢿⣿⣿⣷⠈⣩⠀⢘⣿⣿⣷⣍⠃⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡅⠛⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣠⣤⣺⣿⣿⣯⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⣶⣝⣷⣺⣿⣿⡿⠉⠓⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⠈⠉⣉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣟⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣷⣯⠟⠋⠁⠀⣴⣶⣶⣤⡀⠀⠉⠑⠉⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⡿⠷⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢘⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠁⢸⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣬⣭⣭⣩⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣝ ⠛⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⡿⠃⠀⠖⢀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⠟⠛⠉⠑⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⡶⠖⣿⣿⣿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⢷⣦⣄⣈⢿⣯⣽⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠠⠀⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣛⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣅⣽⣿⣿⣿⠛⠁⠀⣼⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣩⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿ ⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠠⠤⣴⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠁⠄⢳⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⣸⣿⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠁⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⡅⠀⠂⠄⢣⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠋⠀⢰⣿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠺⢿⣿⣿⣿⡿⡻⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠙⡀⠀⢊⠄⠻⣆⠀⣠⡀⢸⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠻⢿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣬⣭⣟⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠱⠀⠈⢎⢀⠙⢀⠀⢹⢸⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢃⠀⠈⢊⢄⠘⣧⡀⢸⠀⠐⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1526 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/14/Today_in_Techrights.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/14/Today_in_Techrights.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Today in Techrights⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 14, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇A_really_close_up_detailed_beach_bird_perched_on_a_sign.⦈_ ⚓ Updated This Past Day⠀⇛ 1. ⚓ We_Covered_UEFI_'Secure_Boot'_Scandals._The_World_Listened.⠀⇛ To hell with UEFI 'secure boot' 2. ⚓ Fake_News_With_Fake_Numbers_About_Microsoft⠀⇛ "This is what happens when the world's economy is governed by sick old men" 3. ⚓ Slopwatch:_"Google_News"_is_Fast_Becoming_a_Mashup_of_Slopfarms,_Linux Journal_("LJ")_is_a_Dump_of_LLM_Slop⠀⇛ Well done, Google News.
