Even in the flea markets the prices are elevated and nothing is exempted, not even magnetic stuff. It's a good thing I got us a large (8TB) drive last summer. Scarcity in the world (water shortages, food price inflation etc.) is a real thing and it extends to necessities in the digital realms, including the prices of servers, hence the price of hosting. Thankfully our community pays to run the site and can cope with pricing burdens.

(RawTheraPee doesn't attract me for some reason). Darktable is the oddest thing. It's super powerful and flexible, but the UI and workflow are inscrutable. I could learn to live with it if I had to. * ⚓ LWN ☛ Open-source_Discord_alternatives⠀⇛ The closed-source chat platform Discord announced on February 9 that it would soon require some users to verify their ages in order to access some content — although the company quickly added that the ""vast majority"" of users would not have to. That reassurance has to contend with the fact that the UK and other countries are implementing increasingly strict age requirements for social media. Discord's age verification would be done with an AI age-judging model or with a government photo ID. A surprising number of open-source projects use Discord for support or project communications, and some of those projects are now looking for open-source alternatives. Mastodon, for example, has moved discussion to Zulip. There are some alternatives out there, all with their own pros and cons, that communities may want to consider if they want to switch away from Discord. * ⚓ SusamPal ☛ From_ZNC_to_Soju⠀⇛ I have recently switched from ZNC to Soju as my IRC bouncer and I am already quite pleased with it. I usually run my bouncer on a Debian machine, where Soju is well packaged and runs smoothly right after installation. By contrast, the ZNC package included with Debian 13 (Trixie) and earlier fails to start after installation because of a missing configuration file. As a result, I was forced to maintain my own configuration file along with a necessary PEM bundle, copy them to the Debian system and carefully set the correct file permissions before I could run ZNC successfully. None of this is necessary with Soju, since installing it from the Debian package repository automatically sets up the configuration and certificate files. I no longer have to manage any configuration or certificate files myself. * § SaaS/Back End/Databases⠀➾ o ⚓ Ian Duncan ☛ Making_Haskell_Talk_to_PostgreSQL_Without Suffering⠀⇛ Meanwhile, two other performance problems sit underneath the N+1 problem, less famous but just as costly: the encoding overhead of text-based wire protocols, and the latency cost of synchronous round-trips (although this is typically how N+1 suffering surfaces in practice). These three taxes compound each other, and addressing only one still leaves the other two extracting their toll. * § Content Management Systems (CMS) / Static Site Generators (SSG)⠀➾ o ⚓ [Old] Justin Lam ☛ Hugo:_Some_Random_Tips_and_Tricks⠀⇛ My intro to Hugo was back in 2016, a mere 3 years after its inception, when I was in my early days of learning web development. Quite a bit has changed since then, both in what Hugo is capable of and my understanding of how to actually code. I’m far from being a frontend dev, but I’ve gathered a collection of snippets that I’ve stumbled upon along the way in bringing this website up to more modern standards. * § GNU Projects⠀➾ o ⚓ Ubuntu Handbook ☛ Octave_11.1.0_Released_with_11_New_Functions_& Better_HiDPI_Support⠀⇛ GNU Octave, the free open-source scientific programming language, released new major 11.1.0 version yesterday. This is the first release in version 11, that introduced many new functions, performance improvements, and some UI changes. o ⚓ Make Use Of ☛ I_replaced_my_standard_Linux_coreutils_with_Rust versions_and_it’s_surprisingly_faster [Ed: Also has bugs, missing functionality etc.]⠀⇛ The first time that familiar pause caught my attention was while I was using the sort command to run through a few hundred megabytes of log text. Until now, I had always ignored it. It comes up when I use du -sh to crawl project directories or ls -la in folders packed with build artifacts. * § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ o ⚓ DJ Bernstein ☛ 2026.02.21:_NSA_and_IETF,_part_6⠀⇛ You've sometimes made a list of pros and cons regarding a hard decision, right? Maybe the decision turns out to be easy in the end; maybe not. Either way, making the list is useful in thinking things through. There's a slightly modified type of list that I like to use in understanding debates about a proposal: instead of just making a linear list of claimed pros and claimed cons, I make a chart that shows that claim B is, at least conceptually, a response to claim A. These responses can be supporting arguments ("A — for example, B") or counterarguments ("A — no, B" or "A — yes, but B"). When multiple arguments and/or counterarguments are addressing the same point, I'll include that point in the chart, whether or not it was stated explicitly, so that all of the related arguments are tied to that point. Bringing related points and examples and counterpoints together makes them easy to compare. I find this easier to use than the commonly recommended "pros on the left, cons on the right". This structure also makes it easy to spot unanswered arguments. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 537 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/22/Games_Deck_Zelda_and_Intel.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/22/Games_Deck_Zelda_and_Intel.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Games: Deck, Zelda, and Intel⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 22, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Intel_stickers⦈_ * ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Steam_Deck_shortage_goes_global_—_Valve's_handheld console_now_out_of_stock_in_Europe,_Canada,_the_US,_and_Japan⠀⇛ The handheld console is still available in Australia, the U.K., Hong Kong, South Korea, and Taiwan. But will they run out of stock in the near future, too? * ⚓ Boiling Steam ☛ New_Steam_Games_Playable_on_the_Steam_Deck,_with_Super Battle_Golf,_Demon_Tides_and_Under_the_Island_-_2026-02-21_Edition⠀⇛ Between 2026-02-14 and 2026-02-21 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. A lot of good titles this time - February is turning out to be an excellent month so far. Super Battle Golf looks super fun: imaging a party action game where you can shoot other players while you are all trying to put balls in the holes. Demon Tides looks like a super fun 3D platformer (and we don’t have many of them these days). And another great 2D Zelda-like game, Under the Island, completes the picture in yet another genre. * ⚓ Evan Hahn ☛ Track_Zelda_release_anniversaries_in_your_calendar⠀⇛ The original Legend of Zelda came out 40 years ago today. With other birthdays on the horizon, like Twilight Princess’s 20th in November, I wanted a calendar that showed the anniversary of every Zelda game. So I made one. * ⚓ XDA ☛ Intel_works_on_making_gaming_on_Linux_better_as_it_scouts_for_new talent⠀⇛ 2025 wasn't a great year for Intel. The company laid off a lot of its workers, which included some people who were maintaining Linux drivers within Intel. Unfortunately, once the person who was in charge of tending to a driver was let go, it meant the driver was left in a state of limbo, unless someone came along and 'adopted' it again. Some popular drivers, such as one for the popular temperature tracker CoreTemp, got left in the dust during the layoffs. Well, there's some good news for fans of gaming on Linux. Despite the brutal round of layoffs, the company seems ready to rebuild its Linux department. The company has posted several job applications, and one of them seems focused on improving gaming on the FOSS operating system. ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⠔⠖⠢⠖⢒⠁⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠈⠉⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⡀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠯⠭⠯⠍⠀⠒⠒⠒⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⡠⠤⠤⠤⠐⠒⠒⠂⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⣉⣁⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣶⣒⣤⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⣀⡀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣿⣿⣽⣶⣶⣞⣑⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠚⢲⢢⡠⡤⢤⡤⡄ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣬⣾⣿⣽⣿⣿⣯⣷ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 638 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/22/KDE_Data_Collection_and_Building_the_Mankala_Engine_with_Distro.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/22/KDE_Data_Collection_and_Building_the_Mankala_Engine_with_Distro.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ KDE: "Data Collection" and "Building the Mankala Engine with Distrobox"⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 22, 2026 * ⚓ KDE ☛ [SoK_2026]_Midterm_update_for_'Automating_promo_data_collection' task⠀⇛ Hey all! I'm CJ and I'm checking in with a midterm update on the Season of KDE task of automating data collection for the KDE promotional team. The first term of the two for this Season of KDE task has mostly been a learning experience of what does and doesn't work when it comes to scraping data from the web, laying down our toolset and approach to data collection. * ⚓ Containerized_KDE_Development:_Building_the_Mankala_Engine_with Distrobox⠀⇛ As part of my work on the Mancala for Season of KDE, I needed to compile the backend mankalaengine from source. Running Ubuntu 24.04 LTS on my host system, I wanted to keep it clean and avoid dependency conflicts while designing digital assets. I decided to build the C++ engine inside an isolated container using Distrobox. What seemed like a straightforward compilation turned into a great learning experience in container troubleshooting and build systems.

My OS of choice was Fedora Silverblue, and on the surface, I didn't really see the point of immutability. All I really saw was an inability to install things via the console, a layering system people told me not to use because it'd 'defeat the purpose' and that's about it. Well, that was six months ago, and I've since made my FOSS nest in Fedora Kinoite, the atomic, immutable version of Fedora KDE Plasma. And not only do I now 'get' the whole immutable system idea, but I honestly think people should give it a shot at least once during their distro hops.

Like every other major kernel branch before it, Linux 7.0 is a big release in terms of version change, not features. However, one important change is that Rust support is now finally stable, no longer under an “experimental” umbrella, and, as expected, there are even a number of Rust updates this cycle.

Intolerance is also a double-edged sword. We're expected to be tolerant towards everything, even the things that do not tolerate us, e.g. based_on_race,_religion,_gender_etc. and there's_reluctant_to accept_people_who_think_differently. Freedom means something a lot bigger than mere independence from some state's authority; it also has mutuality. Those who refuse to accept the social contract of mutual acceptance are digging their own social graves. At the end, as nations, they end in rubble. Open, free societies seek common understanding around the concept of "live and let live". Monopolies, however, have strong disdain towards such a mantra because they always seek to control everything and everybody. In the context of Free software, be wary of self-described communities that rush to ban people based on perceived loyalty. They're cults, not communities. █ =============================================================================== Image source: The_Embalmed_Body_of_Julia_Pastrana_on_Display

2026 * ⚓ Daniel Lemire ☛ How_fast_do_browsers_correct_UTF-16_strings?⠀⇛ What happens if you break the rules and have a high surrogate followed by a high surrogate? Then you have an invalid string. We can correct the strings by patching them: we replace the bad values by the replacement character (\ufffd). The replacement character sometimes appears as a question mark. * ⚓ Carlo Zancanaro ☛ Forgejo,_AGit,_and_Pull_Request_Templates⠀⇛ I've raised a few PRs against the Guix Codeberg repository recently, and each time I've done so with Forgejo's agit workflow. This workflow is pretty nice, and allows me to raise a PR entirely from within Emacs. To do that, I've been using this code in my Emacs config to add an extra option to the magit-push transient to use the agit flow to push to the upstream branch: [...] * ⚓ Adolfo Ochagavía ☛ Fix_your_tools⠀⇛ What a paradox, I realized afterwards. The very desire to fix the bug prevented me from seeing I had to fix the tool first, and made me less effective in my bug hunt. This blog post is a reminder to myself, and to every bug-hungry programmer out there: fix your tools! They will do wonders for you. * ⚓ Hackaday ☛ In_Praise_Of_The_Proof_Of_Concept⠀⇛ Your project doesn’t necessarily have to be a refined masterpiece to have an impact on the global hacker hivemind. Case in point: this great demo of using a 64-point time-of- flight ranging sensor. [Henrique] took three modules, plugged them into a breadboard, and wrote some very interactive Python code that let him put them all through their paces. The result? I now absolutely want to set up a similar rig and expand on it. * ⚓ Vincent Delft ☛ Two_small_tools_facilitating_usage_of_gameoftrees⠀⇛ While working with my self-hosted Got server, I added two lightweight tools to improve everyday usage of got repositories. Both aim to solve practical features while keeping the spirit of simplicity of gameoftrees. Both tools are totally independent. One is a cgi scrip to install on a gotwebd instance; the other is pure local on the dev machine. * § R / R-Script⠀➾ o ⚓ Rlang ☛ Fitting_time-to-event_models_with_an_environmental covariate⠀⇛ In a previous post we have shown that we can use time-to- event curves to describe the time course of germinations/ emergences for a seed lot (this post). We have also seen that the effects of experimental factors on seed germination can be accounted for by coding a different time-to-event curve for each factor level (this post). In this post, we would like to consider the environmental variables, that are, perhaps, the most important factors to trigger germination/emergence. For example, let’s consider either humidity content in the substrate, or temperature, or oxygen availability; it is clear that these variables play a fundamental role in determining germination extent and velocity and, therefore, they are very much studied by seed scientists. In principle, germination assays with environmental variables are straightforward to set up: several Petri dishes are submitted to different environmental conditions and germinations are inspected over time. What is the best method to analyse the resulting data and retrieve some important parameters, such as threshold temperatures (base, optimal or ceiling temperature) or base water potential? o ⚓ Dirk Eddelbuettel ☛ Dirk_Eddelbuettel:_qlcal_0.1.0_on_CRAN: Easier_Calendar_Switching⠀⇛ The eighteenth release of the qlcal package [...] * § Java/Golang⠀➾ o ⚓ Carlos Becker ☛ Announcing_GoReleaser_v2.14⠀⇛ If you need to release in an air-gapped environment, you may now export your key and validate it offline: [...] ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1055 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/22/Projects_as_Gifts_to_Tux_Machines_Community.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/22/Projects_as_Gifts_to_Tux_Machines_Community.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Projects as Gifts to Tux Machines' Community⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 22, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Portrait_of_unidentified_man_about_40_years_of_age_and_boy about_14_years_of_age⦈_ About 100 days from now this site reaches another anniversary and its community (programmers, sysadmins, authors etc.) will decide the most appropriate way to celebrate the milestone/ event. At the moment a developer considers doing work on replicating the stuff_done_in_Techrights for further transparency regarding access. Development of site search (for this SSG-based site) is also doable quite easily given similar work that was done in Techrights. Maybe those additional projects can become a "gift" to the community as it turns 22.

Our thanks to all the people who have tested the first beta. We received 49 bug reports in total, of which we managed to resolve 14 for this release. Note that 6.0.0-beta2 has more issues, especially on Linux and Wayland, than 5.3.0-beta2. If you want to combine beta testing with actual productive work, it's best to test 5.3.0-beta2, since 5.3.0 will remain the recommended version of Krita for now.

Langille ☛ Cleaning_up_old_snapshost:_snapshot_has_dependent clones⠀⇛ I was getting messages like this from sanoid: cannot destroy 'data02/jails/mysql02.bad@autosnap_2026-02-10_12:00:07_hourly': snapshot has dependent clones use '-R' to destroy the following datasets: [...] * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ The_importance_of_limiting_syndication_feed requests_in_some_way⠀⇛ If feed readers didn't do any conditional GETs and I didn't have any rate limiting (and all of the requests that got HTTP 429s would still have been made), the additional feed requests would have amounted to about another 3.5 GBytes of responses sent out to people. Obviously feed readers did do conditional GETS, and 66% of their non rate limited requests were successful conditional GETs. A HTTP 200 response ratio of 44% is probably too pessimistic once we include rate limited requests, so as an extreme approximation we'll guess that 33% of the rate limited requests would have received HTTP 200 responses with a changed feed; that would amount to another 677 MBytes of response traffic (which is less than I expected). If we use the 44% HTTP 200 ratio, it's still only 903 MBytes more. * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ Consider_mentioning_your_little_personal scripts_to_your_co-workers⠀⇛ I have a habit of writing little scripts at work for my own use (perhaps like some number of my readers). They pile up like snowdrifts in my $HOME/adm, except they don't melt away when their time is done but stick around even when they're years obsolete. Every so often I mention one of them to my co- workers; sometimes my co-workers aren't interested, but sometimes they find the script appealing and have me put it into our shared location for 'production' scripts and programs. Sometimes, these production-ized scripts have turned out to be very useful. * ⚓ Robin Rendle ☛ pointer-box-offset⠀⇛ It all began with the nav. Notice how in the sidebar of this here blog where you can open and close folders to reveal more entries? Well, the tappable area of the arrow was way too small and I kept miss-clicking and selecting folders instead. So, I tried to fix it and realized the only way to do so was by tweaking the element like this: [...] * ⚓ [Old] Nick Holland ☛ Incremental_Backup_System⠀⇛ The only dependencies are rsync (any modern version on the backup server, incredibly old supported on the client), and a POSIX shell (ksh, sh or bash) on the backup server. Restoring from one of these incremental backups is trivial - - absolutely everything you backed up is in one place, there's no need to restore the "full backup" and then the ten or so "incrementals". You can directly access all the backed up files of any historic backup, no reconstruction is needed. You can directly inspect and compare any versions of files between any backups. * ⚓ [Old] Justin Lam ☛ Remapping_a_Standard_Keyboard⠀⇛ With a bit of layer remapping that I adapted from using small form factor keyboards, I was able to achieve a layout that keeps my hands relatively centered around home row. It’s not a far departure from a standard layout, so the learning curve is low compared to other, more drastic layout changes to bring improved ergonomics to common keyboards. * ⚓ Jeff Frasca ☛ Process_Isolation_on_NetBSD_with_chroot(2)⠀⇛ Why use a chroot(2) on NetBSD? The most basic reason, for me, is I just like working with NetBSD. It's comfortable. I may write a post going into more detail why I feel that way, but we'll leave this at, "I just think it's neat" for now. There's also a question of how much isolation do you need? To me, the main advantages of containers, jails or zones are the existing tooling for deployment pipelines and having not-quite- vms to play with, rather than security. And those are primarily advantages on larger teams and systems. I don't need nor want any of that complexity for my own little webserver. Ansible and rsync are my deployment tools. The server software is written in a memory safe language, which should cut down on RCE exploits. And if someone does get in, I want them to find themselves in an annoying box of limited utility, but it doesn't need to be maximally isolated. For a lot of small, self-hosted infrastructure, big complicated orchestration systems will be harder to work with. Another reason is to just learn what chroot(2) is, as it's an evolutionary step in the development of process isolation tools. Illumos zones, FreeBSD jails and Linux containers are all technologies that are a take on "how do we push isolation further than chroot(2)?" Which means chroot(2) is a good starting point for building a mental model of the next generations tools. * ⚓ Linuxize ☛ ls_Cheatsheet⠀⇛ Quick reference for listing files and directories with ls in Linux * § idroot⠀➾ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_LibreCAD_on_Linux_Mint_22⠀⇛ If you’ve been searching for a powerful, free alternative to AutoCAD on Linux, LibreCAD deserves your attention. Whether you’re drafting floor plans, designing mechanical components, or sketching precision schematics, LibreCAD delivers a clean, professional workspace without a single licensing fee. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Nextcloud_on_Fedora_43⠀⇛ Storing files on Surveillance Giant Google Drive or Dropbox means handing your data to a third party. If privacy matters — for personal use or your business — self-hosting is the smarter choice. Nextcloud is a powerful, open-source cloud platform that puts you in complete control of your data. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_7-Zip_on_Debian_13⠀⇛ File compression is a daily reality in GNU/Linux system administration, development, and general desktop use. Whether you are archiving project directories, sending large files over the network, or protecting sensitive data with encryption, you need a tool that is fast, reliable, and format-flexible. 7-Zip checks every box. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Umami_Analytics_on_AlmaLinux_10⠀⇛ If you’re tired of handing your website visitor data over to third parties, it’s time to take back control. Installing Umami Analytics on AlmaLinux 10 gives you a fast, privacy-focused web analytics platform that lives entirely on your own server — no cookies, no GDPR headaches, and no Surveillance Giant Google watching over your shoulder. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Audacious_on_Ubuntu_24.04_LTS⠀⇛ Audacious stands out as one of the most lightweight and versatile audio players available for GNU/Linux systems. This open-source media player combines the nostalgic Winamp-style interface with modern functionality, making it a favorite among Ubuntu users who value simplicity without sacrificing features. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1889 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/22/today_s_leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/22/today_s_leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ today's leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 22, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇AwesomeWM⦈_ * § Kernel Space / File Systems / Virtualization⠀➾ o ⚓ Thassilo Schulze ☛ The_Tatix_System⠀⇛ This week I finished up an OS project I have been working on for over a year. It’s a from-scratch kernel designed to serve this blog. The project originated from my interest in OS hacking. At some point, I decided I needed a goal to work towards, and serving web pages seemed like a cool and difficult thing to do. The project is done now because the system is at a point where it can (pretty reliably) serve web pages. (I planned to use it for this blog, but I need a dedicated server to run it, which is too expensive for my taste given it’s just for fun and nobody will use it). * § Desktop Environments (DE)/Window Managers (WM)⠀➾ o ⚓ Make Use Of ☛ I_switched_to_a_tiling_window_manager_and_I'm_never going_back⠀⇛ I didn’t switch to AwesomeWM because I wanted to optimize my workflow. I switched because I was annoyed. Not dramatic-annoyed, or “throw the laptop out the window” annoyed. Just that low, steady irritation that builds when you realize you’ve resized the same two windows three times in 10 minutes. When the browser is slightly too wide, and the terminal is slightly too tall, Slack's hovering like it’s unsure of its purpose in life. When it's drag, adjust, resize, and repeat. At some point, I stopped and thought: Why am I doing layout work before I’ve even started the actual work? My desktop felt like a needy coworker. Functional, but always asking for something. So I installed AwesomeWM. And I didn’t expect it to stick. * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o § Fedora Family / IBM⠀➾ # ⚓ Kevin_Fenzi:_misc_fedora_bits_3nd_week_of_feb_2026⠀⇛ Well, another saturday, time for another bit of longer form recapping what has been going on in fedora infrastructure and other areas for me. o § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ # ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ ‘Mad_scientist’_visualizes_Atari_2600 fetching_data_from_ROM_for_mesmerizing_light_show_—_signal propagation_through_the_8-bit_circuits_animated⠀⇛ A spectacular new CMOS FET level visualization of an Atari 2600 loading data has been shared by a 'mad scientist.' # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Love_Complex_Automata?_Don’t_Miss_The_Archer⠀⇛ He’s documenting the process of creating The Archer in a series of videos, the latest of which dives deep into just how intricate and complex of a challenge it truly is as he designs the intricate cams required. # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ How_The_Intel_8087_FPU_Knows_Which_Instructions To_Execute⠀⇛ This decoding is mostly done by the microcode engine, with conditional instructions like cos featuring circuitry that sprawls all over the IC. Explained in the article is how the microcode engine even knows how to begin this decoding process, considering the complexity of these instructions. The biggest limitation at the time was that even a 2 kB ROM was already quite large, which resulted in the 8087 using only 22 microcode entry points, using a combination of logic gates and PLAs to fully implement the entire ROM. ⠀⠉⠉⠉⠛⠛⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣦⣤⣤⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠦⠤⣤⣤⣄⣈⡀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣦⣤⣤⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠶⣷⣶⣶⣶⣭⡅⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣤⣤⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣶⣿⣾⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣦⣤⣤⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⠉⠛⠛⠛⠿⡿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣲⣒⠂⠤⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠇⠀⠀⡀⠀⢸⠉⠉⡏⠙⢛⠛⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣷⣶⣾⣤⣤⣤⣄⣘⣀⡀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣧⡏⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢰⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣶⣿⣯⣯⣽⣿⣿⣟⣟⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣼⡃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⡶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢟⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣸⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠙⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠬⠭⠭⠭⠄⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣀⣀⣈⣉⣁⣀⣀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠈⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡇⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢻⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡎⡀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⡇⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣻⣇⢸⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⠟⢉⢉⡀⣀⣁⠈⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣘⣿⣿⡟⠛⠛⠉⠀⠘⠛⠧⠿⠼⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⠾⠿⠿⠟⠋⠙⠛⠓⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2033 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/22/Web_Browsers_Web_Bloat_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/22/Web_Browsers_Web_Bloat_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Web Browsers/Web Bloat Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 22, 2026 * ⚓ Drew Breunig ☛ Why_is_Claude_an_Electron_App?⠀⇛ There are downsides though. Electron apps are bloated; each runs its own Chromium engine. The minimum app size is usually a couple hundred megabytes. They are often laggy or unresponsive. They don’t integrate well with OS features. * ⚓ Christian Hofstede-Kuhn ☛ HTTP/3_on_FreeBSD:_Getting_QUIC_Working_with nginx_in_a_Bastille_Jail_|_Larvitz_Blog⠀⇛ What looks like a simple nginx config change turns out to involve SSL library compatibility, firewall rules for a new protocol, and a subtle multi-process routing problem that only surfaces under real traffic. This documents what it actually took to get HTTP/3 (QUIC) working on nginx 1.28 inside a FreeBSD 15.0 Bastille jail - serving the Mastodon instance at burningboard.net. If you’re running nginx on FreeBSD and want HTTP/3, this should save you several hours of troubleshooting. * ⚓ Stefano Verna ☛ I_turned_my_website_into_my_Feed_Reader⠀⇛ If you browse it, it's a sort of "blogroll," but more alive: it's not just a list of names. You can really see who the people I follow are and what they write about. It makes it easy to guess what I'm interested in, sure, but it also makes it much easier to stumble upon an article and start following someone new. If I browse it (with a secret token in the URL), the page is the same, but every time I click on an article, it disappears. I can also mark an article as read without opening it, or all articles from a particular source. I don't need any other features from a feed reader, but if I ever did, they'd be simple to add. * ⚓ Jono Alderson ☛ Stop_trying_to_rank_for_keywords⠀⇛ You do not choose what you rank for. You are inferred. Search engines, and now AI systems layered on top of them, build models of entities. They infer what you are about, what you are good at, who you are relevant to, and how much you should be trusted. Pages are inputs. Rankings are outputs. * ⚓ Kev Quirk ☛ I_Still_Haven’t_Found_a_New_Browser,_and_That’s_Ok⠀⇛ Since then I've continued to try other browsers, but nothing has stuck. I've tried Vivaldi, Brave, Waterfox, Gnome Web, Zen, and goodness knows what else. But all have been lacking in some way compared to Firefox.

That helps keep me motivated and ensure there's fresh air with a nice aroma. Nature is what we are. We're all animals (a kind of animal) and animals are fauna, which along with flora make up life on the planet ("nature"). My wife likes to work close to the fish and the birds. Nowadays she's responsible for feeding both (I did my share but two people feeding in tandem leads to miscommunication and misallocation). I am still the one watering all the plants. Our 'offices' are simple and fun to work in. They're also close to the kitchen, so refreshments are easy to haul. Tomorrow commences another week for our great community. Spring is near.
