latest news and the weather is expected to be sunny. In the afternoon we'll resume adding new clippings and add more originals, which are the type of stuff we wanted to do all_along. 21 years ago when this site was young Susan added some film reviews (e.g. Boogeyman_&_Alone_in_the_Dark_&_Hide_and_Seek"), so the idea that this site can contain more personal "blogs" isn't unprecedented at all. But of course we'll try to keep this site focused on GNU/Linux. 2026 is already promising some growing adoption of Free platforms, not just because Vista 10 is "EoL" but because companies like Valve put more eggs in the "Linux basket". In terms of traffic, this past week we served 234,426 gemini:// requests and about half a million Web requests per day. There certainly seems to be a lot of interest in topics we cover. █ ⣿⣿⣿⡟⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⡟⠷⠖⠀⢀⣄⣀⣤⣤⣶⣶⣤⣤⣿⣻⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣶⣶⡿⠿⡿⠿⢫⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣟⣿⣿⡏⠀⢦⠌⠀⠀⠀⠁⠙⠻⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣟⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠉⠉⠉⠀⣀⢙⣯⣵⣶⡿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⡹⢿⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⣻⣿⣿⢻⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣻⣷⣟⣉⣥⣤⣤⣴⣖⣶⣿⣺⠻⣽⣿⣿⣿⣻⣟⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⢖⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⢀⡰⠿⣻⣷⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⣷⣿⣷⣾⡯⣼⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠁⠈⠛⠻⣿⠛ ⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣝⣿⣫⣾⣾⣷⣛⠳⣯⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣟⣹⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠿⣟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣯⣙⣯⣶⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣗⣾⣿⣯⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣻⡿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⡍⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣛⣳⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⣻⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠ ⡟⢻⣿⣿⣿⣯⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⡿⡟⡻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣯⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⡿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣽⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⢤⣤⣤⣴⣤⣤⣤⣶⠶⣶⣶⣶⣶ ⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣦⣿⠷⣶⣽⣟⣋⣻⣿⣿⣛⢿⠻⣷⠶⢿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣈⡿⠛⠉⠉⠚⢽⡻⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣫⢽⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣟⣶⣦⣤⣿⣭⣯⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣟⣲⣮⣹⠛⠉⠈⠉⠛⢿⣿⠟⠢⠉⠊⠉⠙⣻⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢽⣯⣟⡂⠘⠹⢿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣁⣩⣼⣟⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⡿⡿⣿⣿⣿ ⣾⣶⢯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢷⠭⠿⣿⠻⡃⣋⡃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢍⣿⣿⣿⣽⡾⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⡅⠲⣄⢠⣩⡛⢿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣗⣿⣿⣯⣿ ⣯⢿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣖⡾⣟⣫⠝⠂⠘⠢⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣬⣤⣽⣦⣤⣤⣄⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣽⣒⢉⠠⠻⣟⣿⢿⣿⠿⢿⢿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⡿⣿⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠻⠞⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣼⠉⠙⠣⠉⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣤⡀⣠⣴⣶⣶⣄⠀⠺⠿⣶⣶⣄⢈⡓⣾⢿⣟⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⣀⣐⣦⣄⢾⢯⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡠⢔⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⡾⠟⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠉⠋⠙⠿⣿⡻⡛⠛⣿⡁⠀⠀⠈⠚⠻⠀⠀⣀⠀⠘⣿⣯⣬⣿⣿⢿⣯⣿⣿⣏⣿⣿⣻⣿⣻⣻⣿⢻⣏ ⢽⡿⣯⣯⢳⣧⣷⣶⣚⣥⣀⣀⣂⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣶⣶⣷⣾⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠁⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⣀⢀⣀⠔⢛⣷⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣋⢾⣶⡑⣿⢿⣿⣿⠛⠛⠟⠙⠻⠻⣿⣿⣿⣮⣿⣿⡏⡿⢦ ⠟⢿⣶⣾⣿⡻⣿⣿⣯⢿⣞⡻⢿⣟⣿⣿⠖⠂⡀⠾⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⡒⠘⠰⠝⠛⠛⡻⣿⠇⠴⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠈⠛⡁⠤⠉⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⡍⠿⣿⣭⣷⡯⠻ ⠿⠾⣺⣻⠿⠷⣿⣾⣫⡵⣦⣬⢤⣭⣸⣧⠆⠀⠁⣀⣈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣠⢲⣶⣬⣿⣯⣶⣶⢀⡀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣤⣽⣯⣷⣮⢾ ⣮⣔⣳⡎⢿⡶⢾⣾⣿⢛⣽⠯⣦⣩⣿⠅⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠂⠀⠀⢶⢤⡤⣥⣵⣭⣽⣯⣸⣿⣶⣟⠳⢬⣮⣌⣣⠥⣄⠢⡠⣀⡔⣐⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⣛ ⣿⣿⢿⡭⣿⢷⣦⢶⣷⣦⣅⣰⠾⣿⠃⢀⣾⣿⡶⠾⠟⠛⠑⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⡠⠀⠀⣠⣷⣀⠀⡾⣽⣍⢫⡙⣛⣟⣋⢼⣤⣼⣥⣝⣧⣿⠓⢻⣺⣏⣿⣿⣿⡭⢟⡭⢿⣧⣍⣳⣦ ⡉⠉⡛⣝⠰⠽⠾⣯⣽⣿⣻⣏⢓⣟⡶⣝⣿⣥⣪⡄⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠑⢀⡈⣥⢔⣿⣳⣫⣏⢁⡟⠃⢋⣛⡿⠯⣿⠿⡿⣿⣳⣋⣁⠺⢯⣿⡿⢿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⠤⢿⣵⡓ ⣿⣷⡆⡠⠒⠒⠙⠛⠉⠉⠉⠙⣉⣈⣉⠙⠙⠛⠯⣾⣯⣽⣿⣗⢦⣠⣤⣤⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⠤⡴⡶⣶⢭⡏⣹⣻⢻⠴⣾⣷⣽⡿⠷⢿⡿⢾⣿⠛⠷⢃⣓⠿⡻⣏⣻⣍⣡⣤⣟⣿⡿⠿⠉⠛⠋⣹⠃⠀⠀⠉⢿ ⠿⠿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠤⢬⣵⣤⣤⢤⣬⣭⣿⣶⣷⣮⣤⣷⡿⡳⠀⠀⠀⠝⠖⣤⡤⠀⢀⣡⣚⠙⣿⠿⡅⣿⢆⣚⠻⡯⣝⣷⣟⣛⢿⢾⠆⠭⣽⠷⡦⢞⣌⢒⣀⡍⢆⠘⢿⣲⢖⠎⠀⠀⠀⠐⣶⣶ ⠀⠀⡐⠿⣿⣶⣄⠴⢄⣴⣶⣦⢈⠤⡌⡤⣻⢿⣾⣷⡙⠟⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠐⠿⠿⠟⠉⠈⠉⠉⠚⡟⠟⠫⢁⣿⡿⣿⣿⣾⡟⡶⣮⣿⣽⣿⣾⣝⢶⡦⠼⣿⡟⣛⣲⣿⣿⢿⣓⣶⢪⠖⠒⠖⣹⣶⣿ ⣀⣰⠶⢉⣀⣭⡛⢿⣟⣿⡙⠻⠛⢫⣴⣶⣞⣿⢼⠯⢻⡛⢳⡩⣋⢽⠛⠛⠉⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣷⣶⣶⣮⣿⣛⣺⢿⣝⣿⣷⢞⣿⣿⣾⠶⣗⣑⣐⢢⣼⣱⣟⣒⢅⣭⣹⡛⠯⢵⠒⠖⠲⢿⣿⣿ ⣍⠩⣩⣷⣯⣞⣜⣻⣭⣶⠿⠟⡠⠛⠠⠉⠑⠟⠓⠲⠾⠛⠀⠙⠁⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡠⣻⣿⣽⣷⣿⢿⠿⢷⣦⣬⢞⡗⠲⣪⣑⡬⣾⣤⣾⣶⣆⢉⢓⡾⢺⣶⣾⣿⣥⣷⣾⣿⣿⣶⣾⡿⢽ ⢿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⡿⣋⣩⣄⣬⣭⣷⣶⣤⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⣀⠉⡍⢛⠓⠳⣿⢏⡙⣳⡤⢙⣻⢯⢱⡒⣮⢢⣟⣽⣚⣫⣉⣿⣶⡶⢍⣉⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡍⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⡛⠻⠿⠿⠿⠿⡿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠖⢀⢤⠤⡀⠐⠷⣢⣉⣻⣟⡓⢖⣚⣴⢾⣿⣿⣿⣯⣽⢩⣻⣶⢶⡿⠿⣷⣒⣣⣶⣯⣭⡯⣿⡿⢷⡛⢯⣿⣿⣿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⡿⠓⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣬⣗⢤⣀⣀⠀⢖⡠⢔⢦⣤⣌⣷⣛⠽⢿⢾⣱⣿⢓⣺⢴⣮⣦⣿⣻⡫⣫⣙⣮⣿⣷⣷⣷⣚⣩⣭⣿⣔⣿⣯⢞⣟⡍⣣⣬⣻⣛⠓⣯⣿⣯⡼⣟⠲⣿⣶⣷⣬⣶⣄⣴ ⡟⢋⣫⡉⣉⣀⣀⢤⣤⣦⡦⣤⢶⣶⡞⠛⡻⡖⠻⠒⠺⢟⣯⣽⣕⡺⣗⢺⡿⢛⣦⡷⢿⡯⣿⣽⣗⡿⣿⡻⣾⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⢼⣿⣷⣿⣭⣴⣍⡟⢽⡿⢻⣛⣿⣺⢭⣽⣳⣮⣲⣻⣚⠿⣷⣔⣾⣽⣺⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 227 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/11/17/6_open_source_Linux_apps_I_d_use_even_if_they_weren_t_free.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/11/17/6_open_source_Linux_apps_I_d_use_even_if_they_weren_t_free.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ 6 open-source Linux apps I'd use even if they weren't free⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Nov 17, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇KDE_Connect⦈_ Quoting: 6 open-source Linux apps I'd use even if they weren't free — Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents: Are you looking for really good open source software for your Linux computer? There are some applications that I use so much, I'd be first in line to pay if there was suddenly a price tag on it. One of Linux's biggest selling points is technically not a "selling" point at all: so much of it is free. Not only is the vast majority of popular distributions offered without monetary cost, but most of the software available in repositories won't charge you anything. But that doesn't mean they aren't worth anything.

Some are made to be beginner-friendly, while others are better suited for experiments. But all of them want to lock you down to their own ecosystem, which is especially true for pre-built NAS models that you get off the shelves. When you want to try something even mildly unconventional, you will start to notice the constraints. Ubuntu Server, on the other hand, doesn’t behave like it’s trying to box you in. It feels like a real operating system for your NAS that respects your intentions. It works hand in hand with you, not against you. And here are a few reasons that work in its favor.

LibrePods Project Makes It Possible — Apple builds excellent products used by hundreds of millions of people. When it comes to AirPods, however, one thing has consistently fallen short for Linux users: they’re still hard to use on this platform, with features heavily limited. So I was genuinely surprised to come across the project, which goes a long way toward fixing that problem. Meet LibrePods – a solution many Linux users have wanted for years. The project offers one of the most comprehensive AirPods integrations for the Linux desktop (and Android devices) to date. Instead of relying on partial compatibility through generic Bluetooth stacks, the project implements Apple-specific behavior directly, providing Linux users with access to features that are normally unavailable once the earbuds leave macOS or iOS.

For reference, during the same time, there were 801 games released for backdoored Windows on Steam, so the GNU/Linux versions represent about 9.1 % of total released titles. There’s a LOT of games that made it to the market in that past week, but at the same time, nothing completely outstanding either. I will let you have a look at our selection: * ⚓ Boiling Steam ☛ Upgrading_Fans_with_a_Custom_Shroud_on_a_RTX3090_- Goodbye_Fan_Noise!⠀⇛ I have a Nvidia RTX 3090 on my main workstation, and while it’s a great card for many types of uses, including LLM and image models outside of gaming, my model from Zotac has poor quality fans. Push the GPU a little too much and this is like a plane is taking off in your room. Turbojet sound? No, I would like to do without, please. I was considering different options, and through my search I discovered that someone on Etsy makes custom shrouds for a number of GPUs, to make it possible to attach big ass fans to replace the existing ones. We are talking about 120 mm fans, similar to what you get on the Framework Desktop. The shroud is just a few pieces of plastic with some screw holes - that match exactly the position of the screws on your GPU’s heatsink model, and allow for two 120mm fans to be fixed and stabilized effortlessly. I gave it a go. This is a description of what the steps look like. And the results, too, at the end. * ⚓ Linux_PC_Gaming_Is_On_The_Rise_While_Windows_Trips_Over_Itself⠀⇛ For months I have watched the internet argue about PC gaming, with the never-ending Windows versus Linux debate always being mentioned. And ever since Linux gaming has taken the bullhorn, thanks to Valve’s involvement, the conversation is louder than ever. You can barely mention PC gaming without someone jumping in to praise Linux or remind you that Microsoft’s Windows is constantly taking 1 step forward and two steps back. I have wanted to speak on this for a long time, but I usually held back because the pushback never stops. I am past that now. It is time to talk honestly about what is happening. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1056 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/11/17/Finnix_251_Linux_Distro_for_Sysadmins_Introduces_Official_OCI_C.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/11/17/Finnix_251_Linux_Distro_for_Sysadmins_Introduces_Official_OCI_C.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Finnix 251 Linux Distro for Sysadmins Introduces Official OCI Container Images⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Marius Nestor on Nov 17, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Finnix_251⦈_ Coming almost eight months after Finnix 250, the Finnix 251 release bumps the kernel from the long-term supported Linux 6.12 LTS to Linux 6.16 to provide users with better hardware support on newer systems when running Finnix from a USB flash drive.

It’s a small collection of utilities for working with Blobs in JavaScript. * ⚓ Linuxiac ☛ Traefik_Proxy_3.6_Introduces_Multi-Layer_Routing_for_Complex Traffic_Flows⠀⇛ Traefik, a well-known name in cloud-native open-source proxies, released version 3.6, “Ramequin,” bringing together three major additions, with the multi-layer routing support being the most significant one. It introduces a hierarchical router structure that allows request processing to occur in sequential steps. A parent router can authenticate a request or add headers, while child routers use the enriched data to make the final routing decision. * ⚓ Jack Baty ☛ I’m_not_sure_I_want_to_maintain_a_complex_Emacs_config⠀⇛ I love my (sort of) home grown Emacs config, but maintaining it can be exhausting. Yesterday, I complained about it a little in A blog post written with NeoVim. There’s so much going on. I’ve spent years making tweaks both small and large. This should be a good thing, but I’m not feeling great about it. It feels fragile. It is fragile. * § Web Browsers/Web Servers⠀➾ o ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ People_are_sending_HTTP_requests_with_X- Forwarded-For_across_the_Internet⠀⇛ The HTTP X-Forwarded-For header is something that I normally expect to see only on something behind a reverse proxy, where the reverse proxy frontend is using it to tell the backend the real originating IP (which is otherwise not available when the HTTP requests are forwarded with HTTP). As a corollary of this usage, if you're operating a reverse proxy frontend you want to remove or rename any X-Forwarded-For headers that you receive from the HTTP client, because it may be trying to fool your backend about who it is. You can use another X- header name for this purpose if you want, but using X- Forwarded-For has the advantage that it's a de-facto standard and so random reverse proxy aware software is likely to have an option to look at X-Forwarded-For. o § Mozilla/SeaMonkey⠀➾ # ⚓ Barry Kauler ☛ Download_latest_SeaMonkey⠀⇛ Now that shellCMS is able to use LibreOffice Writer to create blog posts, that is one less reason to have SeaMonkey builtin. One of two reasons; the other is want an email client app builtin. Currently evaluating Claws-mail, and if do decide that it will be builtin, then SeaMonkey won’t. But for those who want SeaMonkey, it needs to be easy to install. Yes, it is a PET package available via PKGget, but I can do better than that. * § Education⠀➾ o ⚓ FOSDEM ☛ FOSDEM_2026_-_FOSDEM_2026_Accepted_Stands⠀⇛ With great pleasure we can announce that the following project will have a stand at FOSDEM 2026! * § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ o ⚓ Daniel Lemire ☛ AMD_vs._Intel:_a_Unicode_benchmark⠀⇛ Roughly speaking, our processors come in two types, the ARM processors found in your phone and the x64 processors made by defective chip maker Intel and AMD. The best server processors used to be made by Intel. Increasingly, defective chip maker Intel is struggling to keep up. Recently, Amazon has made available the latest AMD microarchitecture (Zen 5). o ⚓ Cory Dransfeldt ☛ Updating_forgejo's_robots.txt⠀⇛ robots.txt is, of course, a voluntary mechanism, but including these directives is still prudent. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1343 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/11/17/Games_Valve_Game_Slowrunning_and_New_Steam_Games_Playable_on_th.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/11/17/Games_Valve_Game_Slowrunning_and_New_Steam_Games_Playable_on_th.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Games: Valve, Game Slowrunning, and New Steam Games Playable on the Steam Deck⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Nov 17, 2025 * ⚓ Valve_hopes_the_Steam_Machine_will_make_devs_pay_more_attention_to Linux_anti-cheat_support [Ed: Rootkits]⠀⇛ Steam Machine’s upcoming release means more people will be playing games on Linux, specifically SteamOS. The idea of ditching Windows for gaming is becoming more attractive, as the Steam Machine is first-party desktop-level hardware that’s optimized for Linux-based SteamOS. The biggest hurdle for Linux gamers right now is a lack of support for many anti-cheats – particular those that require kernel-level access. But with the release of the Machine, Valve hopes game devs take notice. Steam Machine seems to getting the most attention out of Valve’s latest hardware launches. The Steam creators announced the new console-like mini PC alongside the Steam Frame VR headset and new Steam Controller. Even the Frame runs on SteamOS, which means Valve now has a trio of first-party hardware on Linux (including the Steam Deck handheld). * ⚓ Steinar H Gunderson ☛ Steinar_H._Gunderson:_Game_slowrunning⠀⇛ In 2013, I finished Zelda_II:_The_Adventure_of_Link (on emulator), which I'd first played the summers of 1992 and 1993 (or thereabouts). At ~20 years between first start and first finish, it's a kind of weird opposite of speedrunning, and a personal best for me. But this weekend, I trounced that record; in 1990 (I think!), we got a 512 kB RAM expansion for the Amiga 500 for the first time, which allowed us to play our warezed copy of Pool_of Radiance without understanding much of the story or really reading that much English. And a couple of weeks ago, I realized that I had bought the game on GOG.com in 2018 and not done much about it… and went to finish it. * ⚓ Boiling Steam ☛ New_Steam_Games_Playable_on_the_Steam_Deck,_with Inazuma_Eleven:_Victory_Road_and_Windswept_-_2025-11-15_Edition⠀⇛ Between 2025-11-08 and 2025-11-15 we selected 10 newly released games that are rated as Verified or Playable on the Steam Deck, and meeting specific criteria in terms of user ratings. There’s a big AAA game like the new Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road (which is a really great cross-over between RPG and soccer), and also a new 2D gem called Windswept that plays a lot like Donkey Kong Country back on the SuperNES, and is a lot of fun. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1414 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/11/17/Git_2_52_Introduces_New_Command_for_Grabbing_Various_Repository.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/11/17/Git_2_52_Introduces_New_Command_for_Grabbing_Various_Repository.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Git 2.52 Introduces New Command for Grabbing Various Repository Characteristics⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Marius Nestor on Nov 17, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Git⦈_ Highlights of Git 2.52 include a new git repo subcommand that gives users a way to grab various repository characteristics, a new git last-modified command to show the closest ancestor commit that touched each path, a new git refs exists command that works like git show-ref --exists, and support for the git cmd -- help-all command to work outside repositories.

They're not known for behaviours that are herd- like. Similarly, unlike dogs, they are not known for extreme loyalty. Different genes, different dispositions. Even the breed matters. In Free software communities, there are many species and "breeds". Some developers are happy to work with everyone else based upon technical merit, working together to achieve technical objectives; some are picky when it comes to politics, aliening themselves from projects or people based on races and politics. Running Free software projects is a lot easier with the former, not the latter type. In some cases it certainly seems and feels like the latter type merely uses Free software projects to promote some political agenda. This_isn't_activism, it_is_tribalism.

They are not food. Yesterday, well over 100 birds came to our garden at the same time (about 120 by my rough count). They must be hungry after the recent storm and they learned where they can reliably get "their seeds" (feast). Next Monday we'll need to haul home some more sacks, seeing that it's getting cold (so far in November - and in October as well - it was unusually mild here). We nearly doubled the feeding in recent months and the birds roost in the windows, not just the roof. Not everyone agrees on the matter of feeding birds, but most neighbours (maybe a vast majority) appreciate this and are openly supportive. It has become a_bit like_activism and it makes_it_hard_to_go_out_of_town. Remember that "Sharing_is_Caring". Due to armed conflicts, climate change and other factors there are also more people who starve or rely on food banks. Societies fail when people lose empathy or quit caring for other people (or for animals). In recent epic storms in southeast Asia a lot of "livestock" was left behind to drown or go hungry. That's a lot of suffering. In relation to software, remember to do your share. Remember that in Free software communities the driver isn't money and many people are not motivated by money. We must recognise the commitments and responsibilities. █ ⠀⠀⠀⠄⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⠀⠀⠖⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⡅⠀⠄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡆⠀⠀⠚⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⢈⠀⢀⠘⠁⠀⠀⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠘⠅⠄⠀⣴⡁⢁⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠒⢥⣀⣶⠖ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⠎⠀⠀⠂⠁⠀⣀⣄⠂⠀⠀⠠⠀⢄⠐⠀⠀⠀⠅⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⣇⠀⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⢆⠀⠰⣼⠳⠁⠓⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⢧⠑⣄ ⠀⠠⠀⠀⠘⠁⠄⠀⠄⣰⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠂⠤⠀⡀⠄⠄⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⠁⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠂⠁⠱⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⠐⠂⣀⠀⢀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠷⠀⠈⠀⠈ ⠄⠀⡗⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⣴⠿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⡌⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⢡⠈⠀⠈⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂⡠⠀⠀⠁⠡⡄⠀⠸⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠂⠀⠈⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⣁⢀⣤⣤⠄⠘⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠃⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠇⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣬⠄⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠠⠎⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠂⠀⠀⢊⣿⢒⠈⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣶⣶⠗⠘⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⡄⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⢳⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠌⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠁⠀⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠂⠀⣁⢘⢙⡆⠃⡋⠀⠀⠀⠤⢤⠤⠠⠀⠀⠠ ⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠀⠐⠀⠠⠔⠀⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⡜⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠒⢱⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡁⠀⡦⠀⠘⠂⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠒⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⠞⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⠙⣗⢸⢳⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠠⡤⣤⡤ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⣎⠀⠀⠠⣈⠀⠀⠀⠨⡆⡘⠀⠀⠀⣵⠐⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠙⢀⢷⡀⠀⠀⠀⢠⠄⠂⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⣹⡄⢫⠸⢸⠐⠈⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⢃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢮⡄⠀⠀⠐⡂⠀⠀⢀⠁⠀⠀⠠⠈⠀⠀⣀⡈⡟⠤⠀⠀⠀⣟⠿⢀⣀⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⡟⠀⡀⡀⠓⠀⠠⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠁⠀⠀⣀⠀⢀⢸⡀⢿⡦⣪⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣁⣸⣿⡀⠀⠒⠂⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢶⠀⠤⠅⣽⠐⠀⡀⣠⠓⠈⠉⠈⠙⠢⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠓⠙⠓⠀⠀⠃⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠀⠐⠀⠘⡆⡄⢸⡅⢸⡆⠛⢠⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀ ⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠹⠈⢉⣧⠀⠶⠀⠀⠊⠙⠁⠁⠀⢀⢄⡀⠄⡑⠆⠾⠆⢠⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠱⡀⠀⠀⠲⡰⢢⡆⠀⠁⠀⠀⠁⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⠁⢼⡀⢨⣯⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠈⡀⠀⢿⣃⣡⠄⠁⠾⠉⠀⢀⡜⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣾⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠂⢤⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣷⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢨⠀⠯⡁⠘⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀ ⠀⠀⡇⠀⢷⣻⠈⠲⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣮⡀⠀⣀⡀⣴⠿⠋⠀⠀⢠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠺⣥⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⡆⡀⣴⠀⠀⠀⠠⠀⢀⣾⡗⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠀⠀⠀⡸⠆⢨⢄⢀⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⡈⠀⡆⠀⠀⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡦⠀⢠⣿⡿⠛⠀⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠘⡀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⢠⢿⣤⡿⠐⣒⣲⠎⣴⡿⣋⡁⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⠐⠤⢐⣎⣘⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⠈⠀⠀⠀ ⡇⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⢀⠈⠈⠉⠀⢀⡀⠂⠀⠀⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣵⠃⢠⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⢦⡖⢈⡨⢻⣯⣮⣽⠿⠗⠛⠃⠉⢄⡀⡀⠀⠁⠀⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢉⡄⠀⠚⢣⢽⣿⡆⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠈⣂⡀⠀⡀ ⡀⢤⡀⠀⠀⠀⢠⡁⢀⣀⡔⠀⠄⠠⢠⠀⣈⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠶⠟⠋⠁⣠⣿⠃⠤⠀⢀⠀⢔⠁⠀⢐⣼⣿⣅⣵⣶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢴⡶⠀⠈⠁⢸⢻⠃⠐⠁⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉ ⣵⣻⣿⣷⣶⣆⣿⣕⣾⡿⣗⣿⣶⣰⣄⣆⣼⡃⢸⣾⣦⡀⠀⠀⠰⣀⡀⠙⠛⠛⠣⠀⠀⠽⣧⢄⡤⣾⣿⢛⣿⣦⣶⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣾⢶⠄⣴⣾⣧⣦⠥⣄⣈⣴⣤⣄⡰⢆⣀⣤⡄⡸⣖⠤⠰ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⡁⠈⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣾⣾⣉⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣟⣷⣄⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠋⠉⠁⠀⢶⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡞⡛⢃⣶⣿ ⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣋⣏⣯⣽⣟⣋⣿⣿⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡀⠀⠀⠠⠀⠀⡁⢤⣛⣿⣿⣿⣿⡻⢿⣻⣿⣿⣷⣟⢿⢿⡿⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⢻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢳⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣤⣤⣤⣤⣠⣄⣬⣥⣭⣼⣷⣤⣴⣴⣦⣯⣧⣏⣽⣮⣿⣱⣾⣿⣿⣀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣙⣥⣙⣿⠟⠺⠗⣠⣽⣿⣭⣷⠷⣶⣼⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1900 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2025/11/17/I_tried_out_this_unknown_Linux_distro_for_gaming_and_it_s_bette.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2025/11/17/I_tried_out_this_unknown_Linux_distro_for_gaming_and_it_s_bette.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ I tried out this unknown Linux distro for gaming, and it's better than Bazzite⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Nov 17, 2025 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇games⦈_ Quoting: I tried out this unknown Linux distro for gaming, and it's better than Bazzite — Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents: It's undeniable how much Valve's SteamOS has done for gaming on Linux. Since the Steam Deck came out, gaming-focused distros have popped up everywhere, but only a few of them have actually stayed the distance. Some of that is because SteamOS is going to have a wider release soon, and it doesn't make much sense to keep mirroring it anymore. But two distros have stayed around. Bazzite is probably the best known, and takes an immutable approach to how the architecture is laid out. But I've been using another distro that took a different approach and I think it's actually better at what it does. That's Nobara, which is also based on Fedora, just the non-immutable version, and it's a labor of love by another big name in Linux gaming, GloriousEggroll, of Proton GE fame. Don't worry that it's only one person maintaining it; he often says that as long as he's alive and using Linux, Nobara will be around, because it was a custom distro he made for him and his father to use, so he's got a personal stake in it.

I've been recommending people switch to Linux for years now. No bloatware, telemetry tracking, forced updates, and invasive software tracking everything you do. I ditched Linux for Windows after years of juggling two operating systems. "Just use Linux" isn't helpful advice anymore, and it's certainly not the kind of blanket advice you can hand out to anyone facing problems with Windows and macOS.

But I guess we have a couple of weeks remaining to find out.... The fixes are all over the place, and nothing stands out, except for how it really is pretty varied. It's all small one- and few- liners, with the biggest patches all being to the selftests rather than actual kernel code. In fact, the selftests account for over a quarter of the rc6 patch. Outside of the selftests, drivers account for (only) a quarter of the rest of the changes - again, I think this is more a sign of pull request timings rather than anything else, and the reason rc6 is on the larger side is just that we ended up having a number of varied fixes pulls just happen to come in this week. Another quarter of the kernel changes is from architecture fixes (arm64, loongarch and x86), and the rest is really pretty mixed random stuff (networking, bpf, core kernel, filesystems, core VM - just a little bit of everything).

But with NormCap, you simply select a piece of text, convert it, and use it in your written text, email, presentation, or research. So, for someone like me who is often doing reviews explaining what other applications can do or how they work, NormCap works very well when there is only a screenshot available from which I need to grab some text fast and reliably.

Ubuntu — It’s practical, it’s prominent, and in day-to-day use it’s all you need to known. Sometimes, though, you want to find out more about your battery itself: it’s capacity and current health, number of charge cycles, voltage support and how much is coming in from your charger, manufacturer and model number (if planning to replace), etc. On Ubuntu, finding that information is easy. The distro preinstalls GNOME Power Manager (the Power Statistics utility) or, if you know the right commands to view battery info on Linux , you can use a terminal app instead. Not all Linux distros or flavours include a GUI app, and there are a few things it doesn’t show — which is why Wattage is a welcome alternative.

Things are simple in the beginning - you’ve got a single project, no users to worry about and all the time and the focus in world. Things changed quite a bit for me over the years and today I’m the maintainer of a couple of dozen OSS projects in the realms of Emacs, Clojure and Ruby mostly. * ⚓ Ned Batchelder ☛ Why_your_mock_breaks_later⠀⇛ That blog post explained why that rule was important: often a mock doesn’t work at all if you do it wrong. But in some cases, the mock will work even if you don’t follow this rule, and then it can break much later. Why? * ⚓ [Old] Balthazar Rouberol ☛ Just_enough_Makefile_to_be_dangerous⠀⇛ Over the years, I have developed a bit of a love-hate relationship with make. On the plus side, it is ubiquitous, preinstalled on most UNIX systems, and widely used. On the other hand, its syntax can feel arcane and clunky, and it can prove hard to debug. In this article, I will go over the basic make concepts, and the set of best practices I've come to embrace as my own, to make make enjoyable to use.

Parsl is not highly promoted and it doesn’t have many sexy hipster deisgn patterns or, indeed, much graphic design about its internet present. However, it turns out to solve a lot of my problems. * § Shell/Bash/Zsh/Ksh⠀➾ o ⚓ Benjamin Esham ☛ Making_direnv_easier_on_the_eyes_–_Benjamin Esham⠀⇛ Direnv is a utility that makes it easy to set and unset environment variables as you move between directories on the command line. It works great, but its output can be a bit noisy. For some projects I use direnv with Lorri to set an entire Nix shell’s worth of environment variables, and when I cd into one of these projects direnv produces a lot of output: [...] * § Java/Golang⠀➾ o ⚓ Redowan Delowar ☛ Re-exec_testing_Go_subprocesses⠀⇛ When testing Go code that spawns subprocesses, you usually have three options. o ⚓ Nicolas Fränkel ☛ Are_you_really_wasting_your_time_in_Java without_these_10_libraries?⠀⇛ I recently read and shared You’re Wasting Time in Java Without These 10 Libraries.

Use Linux, BSD. — Zorin has long been one of the best Linux distros - always graphically appealing and never hung up on being Linux-y just for the sake of being Linux-y (yes, Fedora, we're talking about you). I've run the Xfce (Lite) edition of Zorin off and on for years and have never been disappointed. But, to be honest, I had my reservations before running 18 Core, the Zorin flagship. (The Xfce and Education spins are scheduled for new releases later this year). Most of my concern revolved around the GNOME desktop, which strikes me as a solution to a problem that never existed. Oh ye of little faith. Yes, the GNOME desktop remains as annoying as a yard crew using its leaf blowers even after the leaves are gone, but 18 Core works around many of the aggravations. It's not seamless - some of the GNOME extensions are as buggy as always - but most users coming from Windows won't know about extensions, let alone try to use them.

This vast difference in experience largely boils down to the choice of distribution. As such, I only recommend three Linux distros, because they’re the best when it comes to gaming on Linux. Theoretically speaking, if a game runs on Linux, it’ll run on all Linux distros. However, some distros will require more manual tweaking than others. For example, if you want to game on Fedora or Ubuntu—two very popular Linux distros—you’d potentially have to spend an hour (maybe more) just to install the necessary drivers, compatibility layers, and make performance optimizations. This is where gaming distros come into the picture! They do all the technical heavy lifting for you, so you can get an almost plug-and- play gaming experience. That said, there are literally dozens of “gaming-optimized” distros, and as always, a few of them are better than the others—with these three being the best out of the bunch!

From Dash to Dock for quick app launching to Tiling Shell to effortlessly manage app windows while working. These basically turn the vanilla GNOME experience into something that truly fits my needs.

Take a look at the following design: [...] * ⚓ Eliseo Martelli ☛ Tagging_film_scans⠀⇛ If you shoot film, and later you scan it, especially into formats like DNG, you end up with a file that is poor in metadata. Your scanner software (like VueScan) knows about the scanner perhaps a Plustek 8100 and the scan settings, but it has no idea what camera or lens took the original photo. This leaves a gap in your digital library. To fix this, I use ExifTool to add the relevant EXIF tags to the scanned files. * ⚓ peppe8o ☛ Install_Rocky_GNU/Linux_on_Raspberry_PI:_a_Red_Hat-based_OS⠀⇛ In this tutorial, I will show you how to install Rocky GNU/ Linux on Raspberry PI computer boards.

Green started his YouTube channel, Vlogbrothers, with his brother, John, back in 2007, and they now have more than 4 million subscribers. Hank is a creator—and not just in the modern sense of the word. He’s an entrepreneur, an educator, a social-media celebrity, and somebody who understands how to build trust and massive audiences online. He’s deeply attuned to the ways that the technological tools we use begin to change us. * § Kernel Space⠀➾ o ⚓ André Machado ☛ Birth_of_Linux:_Linus_Torvalds_and_the_First Kernel_Collaborators⠀⇛ The earliest collaborations were humble affairs conducted over email, shared tarballs, and phone lines, yet they revealed practices that remain at the heart of the kernel process today. Linus Torvalds acted as a benevolent coordinator, quick to credit contributors in changelogs while also demanding clean patches. Collaborators self selected areas of stewardship, documented their subsystems, and patiently explained design tradeoffs to strangers who appeared on the mailing list. That culture of radical transparency and merit based trust, formulated in the first eighteen months of Linux history, explains how a student hobby transformed into a globe spanning project stewarded by thousands yet still coherent in direction. o ⚓ Simon Ser ☛ Simon_Ser:_Status_update,_November_2025⠀⇛ Hi! This month a lot of new features have added to the Goguma mobile IRC client.

Although that sounds paltry to some, for the Linux community, it was a major milestone because it proved that Linux is gaining ground in the gaming world. I feel almost silly celebrating such a low number, but given how long I've been covering Linux, I've seen that number below 1%. It's been a slow climb up a very large hill. When I first started with Linux, playing games was limited to a scant few, mostly along the lines of solitaire. A few years later saw the rise of games like Frozen Bubble (which I really enjoyed). Then came Wine, which opened up a whole new world of gaming on Linux.

According to the devs, the DXBC shader backend rewrite itself improves support for lots of video games that were completely broken before due to the bugs and missing features in the legacy vkd3d-shader backend, including titles like Red Dead Redemption 2, which now runs just fine in D3D12 mode.

Expected next year, Budgie 10.10 aims to be the first release of this modern desktop environment to be Wayland-only, which means that it won’t support X11 sessions. Budgie 10.10 is also the last planned update in the Budgie 10 series, as the developers will focus their efforts on the next major release, Budgie 11, which we hope to see on our favorite GNU/Linux distributions by the end of next year.
