That saves energy, but it means there is always a micro pause while the processor ramps up. On my plugged-in desktop, it makes the interface feel less snappy. I prefer switching to the “performance” governor that keeps the CPU at its highest frequency all the time. The difference is huge. I see windows open quickly, apps launch as if they are preloaded, and heavy tasks no longer stutter at the beginning. It draws more power and generates more heat, but on a desktop, that trade-off is worth it. When I am on a laptop, I script a switch back to the on-demand governor on battery and return to performance mode when I plug in, which gives me the best of both worlds.

The story begins in 1969 with a highly influential operating system called UNIX, developed by Ken Thompson and Dennis Ritchie at Bell Laboratories. UNIX was a breakthrough for its time, known for its stability and portability — the ability to run on different types of hardware. It laid the foundational principles for a whole generation of operating systems. Fast forward a decade or so, and a new movement was born. In 1983, Richard Stallman began the GNU Project with a bold vision: to create a completely free and open-source operating system. The project set out to build all the necessary software tools — compilers, editors, and utilities — but it was missing one crucial piece: a working kernel. Stallman also created the GNU General Public License (GPL), a free software license that would become a cornerstone of the open-source world.

The main focus this time is accessibility. The installer has been updated, as screen readers now properly read password strength feedback, markup is handled correctly, and the “Before Installing,” “Try or Install,” “Choose a Disk,” and “Encryption” views have improved labels. Plus, the installer also includes additional safety checks in custom partition layouts to prevent crashes, and it now always appears centered on the screen. Read_on Original Post: * ⚓ elementary_OS_8.0.2_Available_Now_⋅_elementary_Blog⠀⇛ It’s been about 6 months since our last minor release and the team has been busy! For all of the details about what’s new since OS 8.0.1, make sure to check out our posts from May until now. In this post I’ll just be covering our progress over the last month up until the release of OS 8.0.2. OS 8.1 is due to be released before year end and that post will be The Big One™ that wraps up every change since OS 8.0. So without further delay, let’s dive into what we did last month that made it in OS 8.0.2! The latest Installer incorporates fixes for a number of issues raised during accessibility testing. The “Before Installing”, “Try or Install”, “Choose a Disk”, and “Encryption” views should all have much improved accessible labels, things like password quality feedback will now be read aloud by the screen reader, and we fixed a couple instances where the screen reader would announce text style markup. Plus, Leo added a few more safety checks for the custom install view that should prevent crashes with certain complex partition layouts, and the Installer should now always appear centered on screen.

FFmpeg is a comprehensive multimedia framework that can decode, encode, transcode, mux, demux, stream, filter, and play almost anything that anyone has created. It supports a wide range of audio and video formats, making it the overall best tool for media conversion. It's framework is free, open-source, and widely used in both professional and personal settings. * ⚓ Mitchell Hashimoto ☛ Libghostty_Is_Coming⠀⇛ The first libghostty library will be libghostty-vt: a zero- dependency library that provides an API for parsing terminal sequences and maintaining terminal state, extracted directly from Ghostty's real-world proven core.

Sadly, it has been dominated by a bitter debate: the project will no longer be called Varnish Cache, but Vinyl Cache. o § Mozilla⠀➾ # ⚓ Firefox_Nightly:_Firefox_144_Highlights:_Faster_Add-ons, Smarter_DevTools,_and_Tab_Group_Boosts_–_These_Weeks_in Firefox,_Issue_189⠀⇛ # ⚓ Tor ☛ New_Alpha_Release:_Tor_Browser_15.0a3_|_The_Tor Project⠀⇛ Tor Browser 15.0a3 is now available from the Tor Browser download page and also from our distribution directory.

I mentioned this to colleagues at PUC Chile and decided to email the United Nations to ask for permission to get the data with a 48 hrs access so that I could download it and reshare the datasets. They agreed that I could share a derived dataset with cleaning/transforming steps but not reshare the raw data, and I did that. I cleaned the dataset as much as I could and used mirrored flows for consistency (i.e., importer-based figures are more reliable). o § Open Access/Content⠀➾ # ⚓ Society for Scholarly Publishing ☛ Guest_Post_-_Building Sustainable_Infrastructure_for_OA_Book_Metrics⠀⇛ The scholarly publishing community has achieved something remarkable over the past decade: the creation of functional, open-source technology for open access book metrics. What began as scattered discussions about the intractability of tracking OA ebook usage has evolved into multiple complementary projects that have collectively laid the groundwork for a comprehensive technical infrastructure for collecting and sharing usage data that can support the needs of publishers, authors, libraries, and other stakeholders in the scholarly communication system. Not surprisingly, the challenge that lies ahead is achieving long-term sustainability as these projects attempt to launch as viable services in today’s environment of diminished funding opportunities. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 882 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/23/From_Theory_to_Practice_Leveraging_the_Virtuous_Open_Source_Cyc.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/23/From_Theory_to_Practice_Leveraging_the_Virtuous_Open_Source_Cyc.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ From Theory to Practice: Leveraging the Virtuous Open Source Cycle for Long-Term Success⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Sep 23, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇value_flow_model_of_open_source⦈_ Quoting: From Theory to Practice: Leveraging the Virtuous Open Source Cycle for Long-Term Success – toscalix — In that article, I described the two environments (open community and company’s internal environment), the two systems (the open source project and your product or service), and the two value paths (contribution and return). I also explained the main types of value flowing between these, like assets, effort, capital, influence, and reputation. This helps us understand the full value flow from both sides. In this second article, we will focus on how to apply this model in practice, turning ideas into actions, such as designing contribution and return paths, defining and measuring value, maximizing learning and ROI, and making contributions sustainable.

"We look forward to having Oliva fully on board," says FSF president Geoffrey Knauth, "Alex's commitment to free software principles and his vast knowledge of today's challenges in the community are highly valuable." A longtime free software activist and founder of FSF Latin America, Oliva brings decades of experience in the free software movement to the FSF board. He is chief developer of the GNU Linux-libre project, a version of the kernel Linux that removes all nonfree bits from the kernel's source code, enabling users around the world to run fully free versions of the GNU/Linux operating system. For his deep commitment and tireless work in free software, Oliva received the 2016 Advancement of Free Software award given annually by the FSF. Nine directors currently serve on the FSF's board of directors, a substantial increase from before the board initiated this new process in 2021.

There is nothing wrong with Debian, of course, just that today GNOME OS aligns more closely with the direction the Endless OS team want to go in. A lot of the innovations from earlier versions of Endless OS over the last decade were copied and re-used in GNOME OS, so in a sense this is work coming full circle.

Each time one travels it seems to be getting worse. Now, in 2025, almost every airport gives you a major dosage/payload of x-rays - demonstrably enough to increase the chance of you getting cancer some time later. There were reports based on a study about that. We saw several such reports throughout the summer. How many lives are saved by those scanners? And how many will die from cancer years or decades later? There's no way to "opt out" (other than missing/ skipping one's flight) and there's no "consent paper" to sign before entering those scanners. Nothing. I once confronted staff at those scanners, but that got me nowhere. They just don't care; they're just "doing their job"... That means there's now an extra element of health risk associated with flying - and the more takeoffs, the worse. The inventor/s (or the ones behind the discovery) of x-rays died from cancer. That alone is a cautionary tale. They don't seem to care. Those scanners are "big business" now; they're mostly marketed and sold by former officials of the US Government.

It includes 520KB of on-chip SRAM, while the external flash and optional PSRAM expand resources for more demanding applications. The BB48R variant adds a microSD slot that enables additional data handling capabilities. * ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ M.2_HAT+_Compact_on_sale_now_at_$15⠀⇛ Today, we’re excited to announce the launch of a new, smaller variant of our low-cost M.2 HAT+ for Raspberry Pi 5: M.2 HAT+ Compact allows you to squeeze a 2230-format (30mm long) M.2 PCI Express card inside our official case, nestled neatly between the fan and the USB connectors. Bring your own PCI Express device or pair it with one of our 2230-format Raspberry Pi NVMe SSDs. * ⚓ Interesting Engineering ☛ Chinese_humanoid_robot_performs_cartwheel, 360_jump_in_demo_video⠀⇛ The company released a 30-second clip featuring the N1 performing a cartwheel and a 360-degree jump. The video opens with the caption “N1 kung fu show” before the robot executes a sequence of movements that underline its balance, coordination, and actuator power. The cartwheel is performed without fingers, relying solely on the robot’s limbs and body control to complete the maneuver. * ⚓ Rui Carmo ☛ Two_Trees_SK1⠀⇛ It is a CoreXY machine with a 256×256×256mm print volume, direct drive extrusion and shipping with Klipper firmware on a Makerbase board running Armbian 22.05. * ⚓ Olimex ☛ New_RP2350_PICO2_Open_Source_Hardware_development_board_with all_48_GPIOs_exposed_in_Breadboard_friendly_layout⠀⇛ RP2350-PICO2-BB48 is improved version of Raspberry PI PICO2 with the following features: [...] * ⚓ Arduino ☛ Gathering_weather_telemetry_with_a_Nano_33_BLE_Sense payload⠀⇛ This payload package is called LIFT for “LoRa Integrated Flight Telemetry,” which tells you the other big feature of the system: it transmits data from the rocket to a ground station via LoRa. The rocket, which has a D12-5 Estes motor for propulsion, is pretty conventional aside from the electronic payload. But that payload is able to capture quite a lot of interesting data. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1712 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/23/Programming_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/23/Programming_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Programming Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 23, 2025 * ⚓ Namanyay Goel ☛ AI_Makes_You_Code_Faster,_But_Ship_Slower⠀⇛ But, on the longer term, I’m not sure how true that is. AI is making us worse developers, and we’re too addicted to the dopamine hit of instant code to notice. * ⚓ Leon Mika ☛ Don't_Choose_To_Reuse_(Yet)⠀⇛ “Keep it simple, stupid” and “you ain’t gonna need it” is hard advice for a developer to follow. In a field where it’s not hard to run into someone with ego (look no further than the person writing this, dear reader) it’s can be hard for a developer to admit that the data structure or algorithm they’re working on won’t be needed for anything else. That it’s purpose is this project and this project alone. And maybe it’s premature to assume that it’s worthy of it’s own library that people will start looking at, and giving you praise for, and getting incorporated into large open-source projects that you yourself used, and being discussed by podcasters you follow, and being considered a vector for supply-chain attack by state- backed hackers because it’s an awesome library that everyone’s using. * ⚓ Ned Batchelder ☛ Testing_is_better_than_DSA⠀⇛ I see new learners asking about “DSA” a lot. Data Structures and Algorithms are of course important: considered broadly, they are the two ingredients that make up all programs. But in my opinion, “DSA” as an abstract field of study is over- emphasized. I understand why people focus on DSA: it’s a concrete thing to learn about, there are web sites devoted to testing you on it, and most importantly, because job interviews often involve DSA coding questions. * § R / R-Script⠀➾ o ⚓ Rlang ☛ T_test_in_R⠀⇛ A t-test is a statistical procedure used to check whether the difference between two groups is significant or just due to chance. In this post, we’ll look at data from Titanic passengers, dividing them into males and females. Suppose we want to test the hypothesis that men and women had the same average age. If our data shows that women were, on average, 2 years younger than men, we need to ask: is this a real difference, or could it have happened randomly? The t-test helps us answer this question. * § Python⠀➾ o ⚓ Dave Peck ☛ Introducing_tdom:_HTML_templating_with_t‑strings⠀⇛ Python 3.14’s new t‑strings add flexibility and power to the language’s arsenal of string processing tools. They make it easy to distinguish between static and dynamic content—essential for safe web templating. * § Golang⠀➾ o ⚓ Anton Zhiyanov ☛ Native_threading_and_multiprocessing_in_Go⠀⇛ As you probably know, the only way to run tasks concurrently in Go is by using goroutines. But what if we bypass the runtime and run tasks directly on OS threads or even processes? I decided to give it a try. To safely manage threads and processes in Go, I'd normally need to modify Go's internals. But since this is just a research project, I chose to (ab)use cgo and syscalls instead. That's how I created multi — a small package that explores unconventional ways to handle concurrency in Go. * § Rust⠀➾ o ⚓ It's FOSS ☛ Git_3.0_May_Make_Rust_Mandatory_as_Developers_Discuss Transition [Ed: Microsoft_is_doing_this]⠀⇛ Git might be heading down the Rust way soon. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1831 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/23/Red_Hat_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/23/Red_Hat_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Red Hat Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 23, 2025 * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ Zero_trust_automation_on_proprietary_trap_AWS_with_Ansible and_Terraform⠀⇛ In the blog post What's_new_in_cloud_automation:_Red_Bait Ansible_Certified_Content_Collection_for_amazon.aws_10.0.0, we introduced version 10.0.0 of the Red Bait Ansible Certified Content Collection for amazon.aws. We highlighted key enhancements and full support for amazon.aws.aws_ssm, a security-focused, agent-based connection plug-in that represents a significant leap forward in how we automate Amazon EC2 infrastructure. * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ Install_Python_3.13_on_Red_Bait_Enterprise_GNU/Linux_from EPEL⠀⇛ Python 3.13 packages are now available in the Extra_Packages for_Enterprise_Linux (EPEL) repositories for Red_Hat_Enterprise Linux 9 and 10 (starting from EPEL 10.1). This provides a way for developers using  RHEL and CentOS Stream to work with the latest Python version. This article outlines how to install Python 3.13 from EPEL and explains its availability in the context of the Red Bait Enterprise GNU/Linux ecosystem. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Worldpay's_Platform_as_a_Product:_Revolutionizing development_with_Red_Hat_OpenShift⠀⇛ Launched in 2020, GKOP is an enterprise platform built on Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS (ROSA), a fully managed turnkey application platform. It is PCI DSS compliant and manages a fleet of 28 clusters across multiple regions. Worldpay views GKOP as a product, not just a platform. Things must run smoothly and reliably, so the GKOP team has built extensive automation around it. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1891 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/23/RPM_6_0_0_Release_Notes.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/09/23/RPM_6_0_0_Release_Notes.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ RPM 6.0.0 Release Notes⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 23, 2025 * ⚓ RPM_6.0.0_Release_Notes⠀⇛ * ⚓ Linuxiac ☛ RPM_6.0_Package_Manager_Released_with_New_Package_Format⠀⇛ The most striking feature is the newly added RPM v6 package format, which moves all size limits to 64-bit, drops obsolete crypto algorithms like MD5 and SHA-1, and adds SHA-512 and SHA3-256 for payloads. * ⚓ LWN ☛ RPM_6.0.0_released⠀⇛ Version 6.0.0 of the RPM_Package_Manager has been released.

That isn’t the case, and Thunderbird is the more feature-rich alternative. However, Mailspring can do a few things that Thunderbird can’t. It brings a different set of features and priorities to the table, and I personally just align better with what it has to offer—which essentially boils down to the following five features.

desktop GNU/Linux with the awesome Polybar. This could work as a beginner's guide to understanding Polybar configuration. * ⚓ Evgeni_Golov:_Booting_Vagrant_boxes_with_UEFI_on_Fedora:_Permission denied⠀⇛ If you're still using Vagrant (I am) and try to boot a box that uses UEFI (like boxen/debian-13), a simple vagrant init boxen/ debian-13 and vagrant up will entertain you with a nice traceback: [...] * ⚓ Zach Flower ☛ Boundaries,_Amirite?⠀⇛ What I don't shut the machines down for is to prevent students from connecting to them remotely after school hours. Because the machines are shut down anyway, preventing ingress after hours wasn't something that was really on my radar. Well... last week I learned to never underestimate the ingenuity of a teenager with a computer, a still-developing prefrontal cortex, and too much time on their hands. * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ Unix_mail_programs_have_had_two_approaches_to handling_your_mail⠀⇛ Historically, Unix mail programs (what we call 'mail clients' or 'mail user agents' today) have had two different approaches to handling your email, what I'll call the shared approach and the exclusive approach, with the shared approach being the dominant one. To explain the shared approach, I have to back up to talk about what Unix mail transfer agents (MTAs) traditionally did. When a Unix MTA delivered email to you, at first it delivered email into a single file in a specific location (such as '/usr/spool/mail/') in a specific format, initially mbox; even then, this could be called your 'inbox'. Later, when the maildir mailbox format became popular, some MTAs gained the ability to deliver to maildir format inboxes. * ⚓ Aaron_Rainbolt:_Setting_up_a_weird_dual-boot_DOS_workstation⠀⇛ I’ve been wanting to create some Bible study software for DOS for a while now. Why target DOS? Because it’s a cool platform, it’s still in use in some areas of the world, and I haven’t been able to find readily available Bible software for DOS, whether open-source or not. Over the weekend, I was thinking about this project again, and decided that, for the sake of development ease and avoiding emulator quirks, I should set up a DOS installation on physical hardware and create the software on that machine. I have tons of old computers in varying states of decay or usefulness; three of them still work pretty well. I decided to pick the weakest of the three for this project since it probably had more than enough grunt for the project at hand, but wouldn’t be useful for much else. The chosen system was a Compaq Presario 6000 desktop, featuring some iteration of an AMD Athlon XP processor, 256 MB RAM, a 20 GB hard drive (which I was about to expand for reasons I’ll get into later), a floppy drive, and dual optical drives (only one of which works). This particular system is a bit strange since its USB controller and network card are both NVIDIA hardware, even though NVIDIA is typically associated with graphics cards. Beyond that though, the system was pretty typical for the kind of hardware you’d see in the early 2000s - all of the drives use IDE to communicate with the motherboard, and most of the expansion slots are PCI (except for a couple of mystery slots, one of them might be AGP, and another one seems to be intentionally blocked off and I can’t tell what it is). The back panel features PS/2 ports for a mouse and keyboard, a parallel port and a serial port, a VGA port for the monitor, and a few USB (probably USB 2) ports. There was also a 3Com network card installed in one of the slots, which I had put there when experimenting with OpenBSD on this system. The front panel had a couple more USB ports. * § idroot⠀➾ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Varnish_on_Linux_Mint_22⠀⇛ Varnish Cache stands as one of the most powerful HTTP accelerators and reverse proxy solutions available today, delivering exceptional website performance improvements that can enhance loading speeds by several hundred times. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Apache_Solr_on_Linux_Mint_22⠀⇛ Installing a powerful search platform on your Linux Mint 22 system doesn’t have to be complicated.
