It's worth noting that the vendor only had/has 50 units available, which can barely make a dent in the 400 million PCs that are set to fall victim to Microsoft's "programmed obsolescence" on October 14, 2025. [...] The company further describes planned obsolescence as a strategy adopted by big tech companies like Microsoft, which is designed to force users into buying new products after their products become outdated and unusable after a specific period of time, leading to permanent environmental damage. Back Market highlights three steps users can take to escape this tough spot: installing ChromeOS or Linux Ubuntu on old Windows 10 PCs, extending device lifespan with practical tips, and joining a repair community.

What few understand is that ZFS is also a highly performant file system when configured and tuned correctly. ZFS has many aspects that provide performance benefits.

If you're a developer or engineer looking to solidify your understanding of how KRaft works under the hood, this post is for you. A basic understanding of Kafka is assumed.

Since then, my collection has grown to include several DEC models, an I.C.B.M. 3151, a Wyse WY-55, a Televideo 990, and a few others. When you are running a terminal program on GNU/ Linux or MacOS, what you are really running is a terminal emulator. In almost all cases, the terminal emulator is emulating one of the DEC terminals in the vt100 through vt520 line, which themselves use a command set based on an ANSI standard.

Corbet's talk offered a rare, nearly unique, insight into the rise and rise of Linux over 30 years. There aren't that many developers who've been involved for so much of that time, and of those, few are good communicators who are both able to talk about and as well as actually wanting to do so. It's quite well known that Linus Torvalds himself doesn't enjoy public speaking.

But what about if you've looked at Windows 11 and you hate it? And what about if you're tired of an operating system that Senator Ron Wyden called guilty of "gross cybersecurity negligence?" So, why not switch from Windows to an easy-to-use Linux distro? There are many Linux desktops you could try, but I recommend Linux Mint. It's not only a great distribution, but it's the one I use every day, and I've used many Linux distros over the years. * ⚓ How_To_Install_Ubuntu_On_A_Chromebook_(And_What_You_Should_Know_Before You_Try)⠀⇛ Chromebooks are low-cost laptops that mostly target students and educators. While running ChromeOS under the hood makes them efficient, they lack a strong upgrade path and full-featured options associated with a traditional operating system. This is because ChromeOS is a lightweight cloud-based operating system that's designed around the Chrome browser. As a result, Chromebooks often face software compatibility issues, lack gaming options, and need internet connectivity for most tasks. That said, you can install other operating systems like Ubuntu to unlock the full potential of your Chromebook. Ubuntu is a free operating system based on Debian – a popular version of Linux originally launched in 1993. One of the major benefits of choosing Ubuntu is its high hardware compatibility alongside modern drivers. This allows Ubuntu to work well on a variety of machines of varying power levels, especially for laptops that have reached their expiration. In order to install Ubuntu, you'll first need to do a couple of things. This includes enabling Developer Mode on your Chromebook by booting into Recovery Mode. The process is slightly different depending on your Chromebook model, so be sure to check with your manufacturer to find the correct process. Installing Linux can feel like a complicated process, but following the steps below should have you up and running in no time. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 929 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/18/How_We_Curate_News_in_Tux_Machines_Turning_Thousands_of_Entries.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/18/How_We_Curate_News_in_Tux_Machines_Turning_Thousands_of_Entries.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ How We Curate News in Tux Machines (Turning Thousands of Entries Into a Few Dozen Daily Pages/Clusters of Links)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 18, 2025, updated Sep 18, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Grey_Elephant_in_the_wild⦈_ Turning giant piles into summaries readers can digest quickly and effortlessly Running Tux Machines isn't too hard for us because we've done this for many years already. Even prior to Tux Machines I had already done curation of Free software links (for over 20 years already). The process does require a deep understanding of the issues; without knowing the terminology, the names of people, the pertinent organisation etc. it's difficult to grasp how things are connected or how topics related to one another. Some time soon a new version of Roy_and_Rianne's_Righteously_Royalty-free_RSS Reader_(R.R.R.R.R.R.) will be released under the AGPLv3. When we run it, as we do every day, it produces something like this: 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇Roy and Rianne's Righteously Royalty-free RSS Reader (R.R.R.R.R.R.)⦈ We can then open articles of interest in new tabs, usually in Firefox. We then organise them, shuffle them around, and use a plug-in we made by our team for Firefox to extract summaries (no slop, just verbatim snippets). Running Tux Machines is a lot of fun.

Ramón Roche introduced Space Grade Linux (SGL), which is currently incubating as a special interest group (SIG) of the Embedding Linux in Safety Applications (ELISA) project. The idea is to create a distribution with a base layer that can be used for off-planet missions of various sorts, along with other layers that can be used to customize it for different space-based use cases. By way of an introduction, Roche said that he is from Mexico and is the maintainer of a few open-source-robotics platforms; he comes from many years in the robotics industry. He is the general manager of the Dronecode project and is the co-lead of its Aerial Robotics interest group. Beyond that, he and Ivan Perez are co-leading the Space Grade Linux SIG. § Linux and space Roche asked the audience a series of questions about space, ending with: ""is Linux in space a worthwhile dream?"" The audience responded affirmatively, but it was a trick question. ""The answer is 'no', it's actually a present reality, not a dream."" He then went through a list of projects using Linux in space including the James Webb Space Telescope, SpaceX Starlink satellites, the Ingenuity helicopter on Mars, the International Space Station (ISS), and more. He noted that Starlink is the largest deployment of Linux in space, already, with a plan for up to 30,000 Linux-based satellites in its constellation.

From the start my mentors and I have had a general idea of the features we wanted to add but weren't too sure how to implement them. After some thinking and experimenting they advised me to start off with a KWin::Plugin. This would allow us to start introducing the gaming controller functionalities to KWin while avoiding having to edit the core or guts of KWin. It would also be a great entry point for current and future game controller input objectives, allowing us to start small with a 1st party KWin plugin, build on it, and possibly integrate it into core functionality.

It has 32,468 different configuration options on x86_64, and a comparable number for other platforms. Exploring the ways the kernel can be configured is sufficiently difficult that it requires specialized tools. These show the number of possible configurations that options can be combined in has 6,550 digits. How has that number changed over the history of the kernel, and what does it mean for testing? Analyzing Kconfigs With so many configuration options to consider, it can be difficult to even figure out which options are redundant, unused, or otherwise amenable to simplification. For our problem of counting the number of ways to configure the kernel, we need to consider the relationships between different configuration options as well. Happily, there is some software to manage the growing complexity. The kernel uses a custom configuration language, Kconfig, to describe how the build can be customized. While Kconfig has spread to a handful of related projects, it remains a mostly home- grown, Linux-specific system. Paul Gazzillo, along with a handful of other contributors, wrote kmax, a GPL-2.0-licensed software suite for analyzing Kconfig declarations. That project includes tools to determine which configuration options need to be enabled in order to test a patch, to find configuration bugs, and to export Kconfig declarations in a language that can be understood by more tools. It has been integrated into the Intel 0-day test suite, finding a number of bugs in the kernel's configuration in the process. * § Free, Libre, and Open Source Software⠀➾ o ⚓ LWN ☛ Rug_pulls,_forks,_and_open-source_feudalism⠀⇛ Like almost all human endeavors, open-source software development involves a range of power dynamics. Companies, developers, and users are all concerned with the power to influence the direction of the software — and, often, to profit from it. At the 2025 Open Source Summit Europe, Dawn Foster talked about how those dynamics can play out, with an eye toward a couple of tactics — rug pulls and forks — that are available to try to shift power in one direction or another. § Power dynamics Since the beginning of history, Foster began, those in power have tended to use it against those who were weaker. In the days of feudalism, control of the land led to exploitation at several levels. In the open-source world, the large cloud providers often seem to have the most power, which they use against smaller companies. Contributors and maintainers often have less power than even the smaller companies, and users have less power yet. o § Programming/Development⠀➾ # ⚓ LWN ☛ The_dependency_tracker_for_complex_deadlock detection⠀⇛ Deadlocks are a constant threat in concurrent settings with shared data; it is thus not surprising that the kernel project has long since developed tools to detect potential deadlocks so they can be fixed before they affect production users. Byungchul Park thinks that he has developed a better tool that can detect more deadlock-prone situations. At the 2025 Open Source Summit Europe, he presented an introduction to his dependency tracker (or "DEPT") tool and the kinds of problems it can detect. Park began by presenting a simple ABBA deadlock scenario. Imagine two threads running, each of which makes use of two locks, called A and B. The first thread acquires A, then B, ending up holding both locks; meanwhile, the second thread acquires the same two locks but in the opposite order, taking B first.

It never was. The site was born in the US and then moved to the UK back in 2013. The hosting itself also moved to the UK 10 years later, in 2023. A year later several Americans started attacking the site with SLAPPs. Despite "USA" branding itself as "free speech" and mocking the UK for a lack of it, Americans can be global foes of free press, everywhere (even filing totally_frivolous_lawsuits_from_the_US..._in_British_courts - a depravity to which we responded firmly [1, 2]). We find it kind of funny if not ironic that this site, originally an American site, got legal harassment only from Americans and only months after it had moved to the UK (after 19+ years in the US). Tux Machines was only ever attacked by Americans [1, 2]. We thought it was worth pointing out in light of what Disney (Kimmel) and The New York Times are going through right now. Thankfully, British judges already have_a_negative_view_of_Americans'_attitude_towards_free_press_and_towards women. The attacks on Disney (Kimmel) and The New York Times will only reaffirm that. █ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠈⢹⣿⣿⡅⠀⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣾⣿⣿⣷⣤⣤⣤⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠏⠉⠙⠳⢤⣤⣤⣄⣄⣀⣀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢯⠛⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠢⠀⠁⠁⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣷⠈⢢⠄⠀⠀⠀⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⠀⢀⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠈⣿⣷⣹⠃⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠇⠀⠀⠈⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⡅⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿ ⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⢘⣰⣿⣿⣷⣦⣤⣤⣤⣄⣀⣀⣀⣠⣤⣤⣴⣶⣤⣤⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣤⣴ ⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠛⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⢻⣿⣿⠁⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣛⡛⠛⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠛⠓⠂⠼⢿⣿⣿⣿⠋⠁⢀⣠⣤⣤⣤⣉⠉⠛⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⡠⠾⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣷⣶⣶⣷⣶⣾⣿⣿⣟⢀⣄⣀⣀⣀⠈⠉⠉⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣄⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣯⣭⣤⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠸⢀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠏⠀⢀⣀⣀⣼⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠐⣻⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⠀⢾⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⣿⣿⠛⠛⠛⠉⠉⠉⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠸⠿⠃⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠘⠿⣿⡇⠈ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⡟⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣬⣿⡁⠀⢛⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⠿⠛⠟⢿⣿⣿⠟⠙⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠈⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⠿⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⢻⣇⣰⣾⣦⣬⣽⣁⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢨⡏⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠰⢿⣿⣿⡛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠟⢳⣶⣶⣆⠘⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⢀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣄⣀⣀⡀⡀⣀⣸⢿⡿⢿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⠟⠋⠀⠀⣼⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⡯⠫⡘⠁⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⡤⠔⠂⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⡏⠉⠁⠈⠈⠁⠁⠀⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣼⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠙⠛⠿⢿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1479 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/18/Open_Hardware_Modding_GuitarPedal_LattePanda_and_More.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/18/Open_Hardware_Modding_GuitarPedal_LattePanda_and_More.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Open Hardware/Modding: GuitarPedal, LattePanda, and More⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 18, 2025 * ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Smooth!_Non-Planar_3D_Ironing⠀⇛ Is 2025 finally the year of non-planar 3D printing?

Its computers should work well with most Linux distributions, but the company has a list of distributions that are either officially supported or community supported. Official support means that Framework coordinates with the distribution, produces install guides for recent releases, and provides support-ticket assistance. Community support means that Framework publishes install guides provided by the distributions, and offers ""best efforts assistance"" through its community forums. If a user opens a ticket for a problem with Framework hardware with a community-supported distribution, they will likely be asked to test or reproduce the problem with an officially supported distribution. Framework's Linux compatibility guide lists three distributions as officially supported for the 12-inch model: Bazzite, Fedora Linux 42, and Ubuntu 25.04. The company also lists four distributions as "community supported": Arch Linux, Bluefin, Linux Mint, and NixOS 25.05. It is interesting that three of the seven are, essentially, the same distribution—Bazzite and Bluefin are both maintained by the Universal Blue project, using Fedora packages as the base for each distribution. LWN covered Bluefin in December 2023.

in my home lab again as part of a re-build. You'll need a RaspberryPi 3, 4 or 5 and an inexpensive smart switch that can mirror traffic from your home lab environment. * ⚓ MWL ☛ “Networking_for_System_Administrators,_2nd_ed”_Kickstarter_is live⠀⇛ The silly thing funded in fifteen minutes, and has gone high enough that all backers get a bonus ebook of FreeBSD Mastery: ZFS. Yes, Allan and I are working on a new edition of the ZFS book. But the old one is still good, and applies to OpenZFS on any Unixy system. * ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Neo4j_on_AlmaLinux_10⠀⇛ Neo4j stands as the world’s leading graph database management system, revolutionizing how organizations store, query, and analyze connected data.

PKGget reported that two dependencies are missing; 'default-dbus-system-bus' and 'default-logind'. The thing is though, the dependencies are already installed. The problem is that a package may have alternative names. * ⚓ HiR ☛ HiR_Information_Report:_Build_your_home-lab_SIEM_with_Wazuh⠀⇛ I started with a Debian 13 VM on ProxMox and followed the instructions for a single-node install. Mind the system requirements. 4 cores, 8GB RAM and 50GB of storage are recommended at minimum. You could run it on a laptop or a small home server as well. The version numbers and instructions are subject to change, so I'd recommend following the official procedure, rather than my trying to copy and paste steps here. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2479 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/18/Winux_is_a_Linux_distro_Windows_11_lookalike_with_questionable_.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/18/Winux_is_a_Linux_distro_Windows_11_lookalike_with_questionable_.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Winux is a Linux distro Windows 11 lookalike with questionable value⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 18, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Winux⦈_ Tired of Windows 11 but want to keep using a desktop operating system that resembles Microsoft's design language? There are a few choices available within the Linux community. You have the option of using a tailor-made distro with all the necessary bells and whistles preinstalled, or you can choose one of the many available to serve as a solid and secure foundation for creating your own Windows-like Linux-powered OS. What you shouldn't do, however, is use Winux. I downloaded this OS after seeing it covered by esteemed publications, and I'm struggling to see the appeal. Then there's the chequered history of this distro's development. Heard of Linuxfx and Wubuntu? Winux is essentially the same deal but an updated effort with a flashier website. Is it worth your time? Probably not.
