Most breakage is boring and predictable (most, not all of it). A bad update, a cluttered system, a misbehaving startup service, or a missing backup are usually the real cause. After watching myself repeat the same recovery steps for years, I eventually built a routine that keeps my systems steady and quiet. These steps do not require specialized knowledge and only require a few deliberate choices that increase predictability and recovery options. When you take a few minutes to set things up properly, the payoff is a desktop that behaves cleanly for a long time with almost no maintenance. That is what I call bulletproof, and here is how I make it happen...

They don't belong inside homes. Earlier today we saw_an_article_about_fellow_Mancunians_who_rescue_local_birds.

Eric Turgeon, maintainer of the easy-to-install graphical GhostBSD distribution of FreeBSD, has published a blog post to explain Why GhostBSD is Moving to XLibre. * ⚓ Eric Turgeon ☛ EricBSD_–_Addressing_XLibre_Change_and_GhostBSD_Future⠀⇛ There was hope at one point that Xorg would get improvements, but that hope was crushed fast. I won't get into the story. I think everyone reading this will know what happened. When XLibre started, it first looked controversial. Before making a decision to try it, I wanted to see what would happen with it. When it started to look promising, I began to evaluate it more seriously. When the porting to FreeBSD started, we got it ported to GhostBSD by b-aaz to our ports tree. It got into GhostBSD's ports tree before FreeBSD. We tested it and made builds available, but we weren't planning to release it for 26.01. * ⚓ TuMFatig ☛ Multiple_keyboard_layouts_on_OpenBSD⠀⇛ My ThinkPad P14s Gen 5 AMD has a French (ISO AZERTY). But it is connected to a dock and I mainly use an external (USB) keyboard with an ANSI US layout. Because I’d rather not type with an US layout on an FR keyboard, and vice-versa, I have configured my OpenBSD OS to deal with both, nearly automagically. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 511 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/Canonical_on_Buzzwords_6_commands_to_clean_up_your_Ubuntu_syste.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/Canonical_on_Buzzwords_6_commands_to_clean_up_your_Ubuntu_syste.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Canonical on Buzzwords, "6 commands to clean up your Ubuntu system from the terminal"⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 25, 2026 * ⚓ Ubuntu ☛ Building_quantum-safe_telecom_infrastructure_for_5G_and beyond⠀⇛ * ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ 6_commands_to_clean_up_your_Ubuntu_system_from_the terminal⠀⇛ Keeping your computer free of digital clutter is an important part of maintenance, while also making sure you always have space for new files and programs. Here are some simple commands that will let you clean up your Ubuntu system from the terminal, no GUI required—well, with one exception. Note that in most cases, these commands will work on any Debian-based system. I tested them on both an Ubuntu install, as well as a Linux Mint machine. On both systems, I gained a lot of space, a lot more than I expected, in fact. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 550 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/Debian_Louis_Philippe_Veronneau_Clonezilla_Live_3_3_1_35_and_Mo.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/Debian_Louis_Philippe_Veronneau_Clonezilla_Live_3_3_1_35_and_Mo.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Debian: Louis-Philippe Véronneau, Clonezilla Live 3.3.1-35, and More⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 25, 2026 * ⚓ Louis-Philippe_Véronneau:_Montreal's_Debian_&_Stuff_-_February_2026⠀⇛ Our Debian User Group met on February 22nd for our first meeting of the year! * ⚓ Distro Watch ☛ Distribution_Release:_Clonezilla_Live_3.3.1-35⠀⇛ The Clonezilla Live project has announced the release of a new stable version, 3.3.1-35, which is based on Debian's "Unstable" branch. [...] * ⚓ Andrew Nesbitt ☛ Reproducible_Builds_in_Language_Package_Managers⠀⇛ The Reproducible Builds project has been working on this since 2013, when Lunar (Jérémy Bobbio) organized a session at DebConf13 and began patching Debian’s build tooling. The Snowden disclosures had made software trust an urgent concern, Bitcoin’s Gitian builder had shown the approach was viable for a single project, and the Tor Project had begun producing deterministic builds of Tor Browser. Lunar wanted to apply the same thinking to an entire operating system. The first mass rebuild of Debian packages in September 2013 found that 24% were reproducible, and by January 2014, after fixing the lowest-hanging fruit in dpkg and common build helpers, that jumped to 67%. Today Debian’s testing infrastructure shows around 96% of packages in trixie building reproducibly under controlled conditions, while reproduce.debian.net runs a stricter test by rebuilding the actual binaries that ftp.debian.org distributes rather than clean-room test builds. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 606 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/DietPi_February_2026_Update_Adds_NanoPi_Zero2_Support_and_WhoDB.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/DietPi_February_2026_Update_Adds_NanoPi_Zero2_Support_and_WhoDB.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ DietPi February 2026 Update Adds NanoPi Zero2 Support and WhoDB Database Tool⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Feb 25, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇DietPi⦈_ Quoting: DietPi February 2026 Update Adds NanoPi Zero2 Support and WhoDB Database Tool DietPi August 2025 Update Goes Trixie and Prepares Forky — DietPi is a lightweight, Debian-based operating system optimized for single-board computers and embedded devices.

As such it can help developers to verify that their websites are working and performing well with all major browsers. The protocol is standardized by the W3C and consists of two separate specifications: WebDriver_classic (HTTP) and the new WebDriver BiDi (Bi-Directional). * ⚓ Firefox_Tooling_Announcements:_Firefox_Profiler_Deployment_(February 24,_2026)⠀⇛ The latest version of the Firefox_Profiler is now live! Check out the full changelog below to see what’s changed. * ⚓ Mozilla ☛ Hacks.Mozilla.Org:_Goodbye_innerHTML,_Hello_setHTML:_Stronger XSS_Protection_in_Firefox_148⠀⇛ Cross-site_scripting_(XSS) remains one of the most prevalent vulnerabilities on the web. The new standardized Sanitizer_API provides a straightforward way for web developers to sanitize untrusted HTML before inserting it into the DOM. Firefox 148 is the first browser to ship this standardized security enhancing Hey Hi (AI) advancing a safer web for everyone. We expect other browsers to follow soon. * ⚓ Firefox_is_about_to_drop_support_for_older_Windows_versions_–_says_if you_can’t_upgrade,_then_switch_to_Linux⠀⇛ Mozilla’s Firefox v115 is the final version to support Windows 7, 8, and 8.1. While the latest version of the popular browser software is Firefox 147 (at least at the time of writing this), the 155 version released back in July 2023 will be retired at the end of February 2026. This means anyone running the aforementioned Windows versions will have to upgrade to Windows 10 or newer. While this probably isn’t a big blow to most Windows users these days, especially now that Windows 11 is (just about) the most dominant OS, it is still a relevant warning for those with outdated or limited hardware incapable of upgrading. Once February ends, security updates end with it, so “you are encouraged” to upgrade your Windows version – or make the switch to Linux. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 807 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/Free_and_Open_Source_Software_howtos_and_Installations.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/Free_and_Open_Source_Software_howtos_and_Installations.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Free and Open Source Software, howtos and Installations⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Feb 25, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇renux⦈_ * ⚓ renux_-_terminal-based_bulk_file_renamer_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ renux is a tool with a text-based (terminal) user interface (TUI) that automates file renaming.

Questions about NextCloud, questions about best practices for remote storage, and of course the latest headlines from JT! * ⚓ Paul Smith ☛ Introducing_jjq,_a_local_merge_queue_for_jj⠀⇛ I've long felt that jj is a nice fit with agentic coding patterns. jj's core model, different from Git, that the working copy is always committed, and revisions are mutable and easily reordered, rebased, and modified, aligns well with the slightly chaotic world of agents making spikes, refactoring, writing plans, trying things that wind up in dead ends and backtracking, etc. I never worry that an agent is going to make a hash of my repo, because I (or it) can always undo or inspect the op log and restore the repo to a known-good state. * ⚓ Linux Handbook ☛ LHB_GNU/Linux_Digest_#26.04:_git_chaneglog,_hard_links and_inodes,_self-hosting_tools_and_more⠀⇛ Self-hosting is the way to go. * ⚓ Linux Handbook ☛ OneURL:_An_Open-Source_Linktree_Alternative_You_Can Self-host⠀⇛ OneURL delivers on its core promise: one URL, all your links, with better analytics than Linktree's free tier and the freedom to self-host. * ⚓ It's FOSS ☛ Australia's_Cyber_Agency_Releases_Azul,_an_Open_Source Malware_Analysis_Repository⠀⇛ Think of it as a searchable, automated knowledge base for malware. * § Web Browsers/Web Servers⠀➾ o ⚓ Daniel Stenberg ☛ decomplexification_continued⠀⇛ Last spring I wrote a blog post about our ongoing work in the background to gradually simplify the curl source code over time. This is a follow-up: a status update of what we have done since then and what comes next. * § SaaS/Back End/Databases⠀➾ o ⚓ Haki Benita ☛ Row_Locks_With_Joins_Can_Produce_Surprising_Results in_PostgreSQL⠀⇛ Here's a database riddle: you have two tables with data connected by a foreign key. The foreign key field is set as not null and the constraint is valid and enforced. You execute a query that joins these two tables and you get no results! How is that possible? We thought it wasn't possible, but a recent incident revealed an edge case we never thought about. In this article I show how under some circumstances row locks with joins can produce surprising results, and suggest ways to prevent it. * § Content Management Systems (CMS) / Static Site Generators (SSG)⠀➾ o ⚓ Matt Stein ☛ Eleventy_Rebuild⠀⇛ I’m finally launching a brand new Eleventy site at this domain, combining my shy Kirby blog with the former Astro site.

You’ll probably notice some “new” posts I merged in from the old side blog. o ⚓ Andre Alves Garzia ☛ Building_your_own_blogging_tools_is_a_fun journey⠀⇛ In my case, what prevented me from posting more was not how long my SSG took to rebuild my site, but the friction between wanting to post and having the post written.

That is why we recently started the Librephone project. As one of the largest corporations on the globe, it is well within Google and its parent company Alphabet's power to use their leverage and capital to bring true computing freedom to millions of devices, thereby setting an example for years to come. If Google still has any intention of holding to their old, retired motto — "don't be evil" — their leadership should make decisions that empower users and support their autonomy, not deprive them of it for a quick buck. * ⚓ Software Freedom Conservancy ☛ SFC_signs_open_letter_to_Keep_Android Open⠀⇛ Today Software Freedom Conservancy joins many other organizations in signing_an_open_letter_to_Google asking that Android continue to allow people to install what they want on their phones. Recent policy changes within Surveillance Giant Google will restrict installation options by requiring developers to register their legal names, adding new gatekeeping that can arbitrarily deny app installation or delete existing apps from your phone. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1361 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/FSF_Software_Freedom_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/FSF_Software_Freedom_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ FSF / Software Freedom Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 25, 2026 * ⚓ FSF ☛ The_FSF_announces_global_call_for_FSF's_LibreLocal_2026_meetups⠀⇛ The FSF invites free software supporters to organize in-person community meetups in their area during May 2026 to bring people together to swap ideas, learn from each other, and celebrate free software. People are encouraged to organize events that help spread the free software philosophy and are grounded in freedom. * ⚓ OpenRightsGroup ☛ Demand_UK_Digital_Sovereignty⠀⇛ Digital sovereignty does not mean that Government should only use UK companies, but it is an opportunity for economic growth if more home grown companies have the opportunity to provide and maintain our digital systems.

Once in a while, Steam throws this event to raise awareness about the upcoming games. My favourite part: the demos. You can try a bunch of them. Here are some you might want to try. This time was a bit easier to do the homework because we discovered a not so hidden Steam press release of the games. The only downside is that not all demos are ready before the Next Fest day, so we could not test games that sound cool on the paper, like Carry the Patient Together (I hope they add a local co-op mode). The problem with Generative Hey Hi (AI) still haunts Steam, and it appears that players are rigorous about it, at least being disclosed on the store page. * ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Ambitious_developer_showcases_slick_triple-level Quake-like_game_stored_in_tiny_64KB_executable_—_every_game_asset_tucked inside_what_could_be_a_‘rounding_error’_in_modern_app_payload_terms⠀⇛ Developer Daivuk has released QUOD, a 64KB ‘boomer shooter’ with an uncanny resemblance to id Software’s seminal FPS title, Quake. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1555 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/GNU_Linux_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/GNU_Linux_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ GNU/Linux Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 25, 2026 * § GNU/Linux⠀➾ o § Desktop/Laptop⠀➾ # ⚓ System76 ☛ COSMIC_1.0.8_released!⠀⇛ COSMIC Epoch 1 was released December 11th, 2025.

Which means that if Linux is ever going to become a dominant desktop operating system, it will have to make serious inroads into the laptop market. The thing is, running Linux on a laptop comes with its own special challenges, and frankly, a significant number of people who own laptops would run into deal-breaking problems if they tried to install Linux on their systems. o § Applications⠀➾ # ⚓ It's FOSS ☛ Making_the_Case_for_a_Modern_Synaptic-Style Package_Manager_on_Linux⠀⇛ The GNU/Linux desktop has evolved, and it's high time for the “advanced package manager” experience to evolve with it. o § Desktop Environments (DE)/Window Managers (WM)⠀➾ # § GNOME Desktop/GTK⠀➾ # ⚓ OMG Ubuntu ☛ Dynamic_Music_Pill_puts_slick_media controls_in_your_GNOME_panel⠀⇛ Dynamic Music Pill is a GNOME Shell extension that embeds a pill-shaped media controller into your desktop panel or dock.

The extension received an update today, which seem a good hook to actually take this off my “to write about” list.

It arrived with backdoored Windows pre-installed, but of course I also wanted to have GNU/Linux on the box. Documentation mentions that I have to disable secure boot and make a few more changes before installing Linux. I did all the suggested BIOS changes before installing Linux. The data sheet mentions Ubuntu 24.04 as the supported GNU/Linux distribution. I have tried that, but I could not get the installer to run. Along the way I realized that the USB boot support is very picky on this box. Using my old USB sticks, which work perfectly in my laptop and old desktop, does not work at all. Also, changing the USB stick requires you to turn the machine off and on, a simple reboot is not enough. Finally I found a USB- C stick, and that almost worked with Ubuntu 24.04.

Turns out it's because I was working hard instead of smart. Instead of copy-pasting folders between my PC and external drive, I could just use a tool that sends over only the file changes. It takes seconds to back up files with this approach and I can do it by running a single command. Remote Sync or rsync is a free and open-source program that has been around since 1996, and it's now a standard for Linux systems. It is a command-line tool designed for copying files and directories between two points. Basically, it lets you copy files or directories between two locations incrementally. Unlike copy utilities like cp, it doesn't copy the entirety of the file every time. It can compare changes between a file in two places and only transfer the changes, significantly cutting down on bandwidth and transfer times.

The original board only comes with 512MB DDR4 memory, an eMMC flash footprint (unpopulated), and commercial temperature range support. Apart from those changes, the other specifications remain the same, with a Texas Instruments AM6254 quad-core Cortex-A53 SoC, an MSPM0L1105 Cortex-M0+ microcontroller, a microSD card slot, a USB-C port, UART and JTAG debugging support, and two 36-pin GPIO headers. Another difference is that the PCB is red for the PocketBeagle 2 Industrial (like the BeagleBone Black Industrial 4G), while the PocketBeagle 2 features a black PCB. * ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ ATAboy_bridges_old_IDE_drives_to_the_21st_century_with Open_Source_USB_host_bridge_—_powered_by_a_Raspberry_Pi_RP2350_and_with custom_"Award"_BIOS_menu⠀⇛ Using the power of the Raspberry Pi Pico 2's RP2350, ATAboy bridges the hard drives of old, with the computers of today. * ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Peltier_Fridges_Have_Early_Death⠀⇛ The problem is that while it makes sense that an inefficient Peltier module needs more power to get more cooling. But the reality is in practical applications, many designs push the current up when it should be moving it down. The curve describes a parabola, and you can be on the high side or low side and still get the same result. But obviously, you don’t want to put in more current and get the same cooling that you could get with lower currents. * ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Railguns:_Making_Metal_Go_Fast_Using_The_Lorentz_Force⠀⇛ Similarly, the Lorentz force that underlies railguns is extremely simple and effective, but scaled up to weapons-grade dimensions results in highly destructive forces that demolish the metal rails and other components of the railgun after only a few firings. Will we ever be able to fix these problems, or are railguns and similar sci-fi weapons forever beyond our grasp? * ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Elongating_A_BMX_For_Drag_Racing⠀⇛ BMX bikes are a unique frame geometry, essentially forgoing all travel efficiency for maneuverability and sturdiness. For how much abuse these bikes are designed to take, these are all good tradeoffs. But it turns out that these bikes also have an exceptionally low center of gravity, which could make them useful for drag racing, provided they’re given a suitably large electric motor and a few minor frame modifications. * ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ NZXT_parts_out_of_the_dishwasher⠀⇛ Anyway, these will prove invaluable for a DIY build I’m doing. I was about ready to 3D print some 3.5 and 2.5-inch drive trays, but now I’ve been able to save a bit of plastic and avoided sending some metal to landfill :). * ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Inkplate_13SPECTRA_13.3-inch_E-ink_Spectra_smart_color display_supports_Arduino,_MicroPython,_ESPHome_(Crowdfunding)⠀⇛ Soldered Electronics has made ESP32-based e-paper displays for years, starting with the launch of the Inkplate 6 in 2019. The Inkplate 13SPECTRA is their latest model based on an ESP32-S3 WiFi and Bluetooth SoC and a 13.3-inch E-Ink Spectra color display with 1600 x 1200 resolution. * ⚓ Liliputing ☛ Lilbits:_Pebble_smartwatches,_Linux_7.0,_and_the_uncertain future_for_Lenovo_Legion_Go_graphics_drivers⠀⇛ If you’ve got a PC that works, there’s not that much reason to worry about getting frequent driver updates unless you want to plug in some currently unsupported hardware. But if you’ve got a gaming PC, then frequent driver updates can be pretty important, as NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel often tweak graphics drivers to add support for new games and improve performance for existing titles. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2290 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/Programming_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/Programming_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Programming Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 25, 2026 * ⚓ Chris ☛ Flake_Checks_in_Shell⠀⇛ These three steps are not strictly documented anywhere, but are all needed for a shell script to work as a good flake check. * ⚓ Ivan Enderlin ☛ About_memory_pressure,_lock_contention,_and_Data- oriented_Design⠀⇛ I'm here to narrate you a story about performance. Recently, I was in the same room as some Memory Pressure and some Lock Contention. It took me a while to recognize them. Legend says it only happens in obscure, low-level systems, but I'm here to refute the legend. While exploring, I had the pleasure of fixing a funny bug in a higher-order stream: lucky us, to top it all off, we even have a sweet treat! This story is also a pretext to introduce you to Data-oriented Design, and to show how it improved execution time by 98.7% and throughput by 7718.5%. I believe we have all the ingredients for a juicy story. Let's cook, and bon appétit ! * ⚓ Andrew Nesbitt ☛ Where_Do_Specifications_Fit_in_the_Dependency_Tree?⠀⇛ Making specs explicit doesn’t require solving the whole problem at once. Some of the data model already exists: SPDX 3.0 includes a hasSpecification relationship type linking software elements to specifications, and CycloneDX 1.6 introduced “definitions” for standards and “declarations” for conformance attestation. But no package manager reads any of this, and no SBOM generator populates it automatically. A spec field in package metadata, even if it were just a list of RFC numbers or W3C shortnames, would let tooling answer questions that are currently impossible: which packages implement RFC 9110, how many depend on Unicode 15 character properties, which of your dependencies still implement TLS 1.2 and need to migrate. Spec authors, currently invisible in the software supply chain, would get the same transitive-dependent counts that help make the case for funding open source libraries. The Sovereign Tech Agency funds protocol implementations like curl and OpenSSL and is starting to explore supporting standards work directly, but nobody can yet point to a number and say this RFC has 400,000 transitive dependents. * § Rust⠀➾ o ⚓ It's FOSS ☛ Ladybird_Browser_Just_Ported_C++_Code_to_Rust_in_2 Weeks_Thanks_to_AI⠀⇛ Turns out Hey Hi (AI) is pretty handy when you need to port C++ code. * § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ o ⚓ Clayton Errington ☛ CSS_is_a_programming_language⠀⇛ For a long time, CSS was the “coloring book” and JavaScript was the “engine.” But the line has blurred so much that CSS is now technically Turing-complete (if you count the combination of HTML and CSS selectors). The transition from static styling to “programming” really accelerated when we stopped asking CSS to just look a certain way and started asking it to calculate and behave. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2384

Red Bait has released the general availability (GA) of storage offload migrations in the migration toolkit for virtualization 2.11, included in Red Bait OpenShift. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Predictable_AI:_Announcing_the_January_and_February validated_model_batches [Ed: IBM Red Hat promoting slop; it helps fake value]⠀⇛ The transition from Hey Hi (AI) experimentation to production- grade deployment is often the most difficult hurdle for an enterprise. At Red Hat, we believe that choosing a model should come with predictable outcomes, rather than uncertainty. Our third-party model validation initiative is designed to remove the guesswork, providing the guidance and predictability organizations need to scale their Hey Hi (AI) infrastructure effectively. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Red_Hat_Hey_Hi_(AI)_Enterprise:_Bridging_the_gap from_experimentation_to_production_scale [Ed: Instead of promoting GNU/ Linux it is trying to convince people to participate in the Ponzi scheme]⠀⇛ Red Hat Hey Hi (AI) Enterprise is now generally available, offering a unified Hey Hi (AI) platform designed to simplify the development, deployment, and management of AI-powered applications across the hybrid cloud. * ⚓ Remi Collet ☛ Remi_Collet:_📝_Install_PHP_8.5_on_Fedora,_RHEL,_CentOS Stream,_Alma,_Rocky_or_other_clone⠀⇛ Here is a quick howto upgrade default PHP version provided on Fedora, RHEL, CentOS, AlmaLinux, Rocky_Linux or other clones with latest version 8.5. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2644 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/Start_of_Gardening.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/Start_of_Gardening.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Start of Gardening⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 25, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Solar_Protuberances⦈_ Sun, sun, smiley sun We are 3_days_away_from_spring, so this morning we began planting some narcissus_bundles my wife received as a gift.

PC back to life⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Feb 25, 2026 Quoting: This impressive Linux distro can bring your spare PC back to life | ZDNET — When I think of Xfce-based desktop distributions, a certain old- school look comes to mind. That doesn't mean the open-source desktop should be overlooked... quite the opposite. Xfce is a lightning-fast, full-featured desktop that just so happens to look a bit old school. Of course, this is Linux, so anything is possible. When I came across Desert OS, I was convinced that it was a tweaked KDE Plasma or GNOME desktop. There was no way it could be Xfce, right? Right? I was wrong. This Ukrainian Linux distribution sports a beautiful Xfce desktop with Ubuntu 26.04 under the hood to create a striking look and feel you won't find in most desktop OSs of this combination. It really is pretty.

FOSS ☛ Master_the_Essential_Keyboard_Shortcuts_in_GNU/Linux_Mint to_Feel_Like_a_Pro_User⠀⇛ I am sharing some essential shortcuts to get you started. I will also briefly share how you can set custom shortcuts for all actions. * ⚓ John Goerzen ☛ John_Goerzen:_Screen_Power_Saving_in_the_GNU/Linux Console⠀⇛ I just made up a Debian trixie setup that has no need for a GUI. In fact, I rarely use the text console either. However, because the machine is dual boot and also serves another purpose, it’s connected to my main monitor and KVM switch. The monitor has three inputs, and when whatever display it’s set to goes into powersave mode, it will seek out another one that’s active and automatically switch to it. You can probably see where this is heading: it’s really inconvenient if one of the inputs never goes into powersave mode. And, of course, it wastes energy. * ⚓ RIPE ☛ When_ToR_Instability_Collapses_Cross-Rack_Redundancy_Without Breaching_SLA⠀⇛ In many small and mid-scale deployments, cross-rack redundancy exists logically but not structurally. Replicas are distributed across racks, ToRs are independent, and SLA dashboards remain green. The design appears resilient. The underlying assumption is that placing replicas in different racks creates separate failure domains. In single-homed designs, that assumption only holds while each rack switch remains stable. * ⚓ Linuxize ☛ chown_Cheatsheet⠀⇛ Quick reference for changing file and directory ownership with chown in Linux * ⚓ Linux Hint ☛ How_to_Turn_an_Old_PC_into_a_NAS_Using_Ubuntu_Server_ (Complete_Guide)⠀⇛ A friend of mine texted me that he was going to throw away an old PC. I bought it from him and decided that I was going to turn this thing into a NAS because the kind of work I do requires me to use 2-3 computers, sometimes 4. * § idroot⠀➾ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Android_Studio_on_Fedora_43⠀⇛ If you are a developer running Fedora 43 and want to build Android applications, setting up Android Studio is your first critical step. This guide walks you through everything — from system prerequisites to launching your first project — using two proven installation methods: Snap and the official tar.gz archive. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_FreeRADIUS_on_Fedora_43⠀⇛ Network security starts with knowing exactly who is connecting to your infrastructure. A compromised shared Wi-Fi password, an unauthorized VPN login, or an unverified device plugged into a managed switch — each of these is a real-world threat that centralized AAA (Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting) solves cleanly. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_KeePassXC_on_Fedora_43⠀⇛ Passwords are the first line of defense between your accounts and the rest of the world. Yet most people still reuse them, scribble them on sticky notes, or store them in plain text files. That stops today. * ⚓ Rob Knight ☛ Notes_on_Setting_up_Forgejo_on_Coolify_with_SSH⠀⇛ For reasons that I'll write about on another post, I had occasion to setup my own instance of Forgejo - "a self-hosted lightweight software forge", aka "We have GitHub at home". Despite having an install of Coolify on one of my servers which should have made this one-click, it was significantly more clicks than that. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 3488 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/Trust_in_open_source_communities.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/25/Trust_in_open_source_communities.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Trust in open source communities⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Feb 25, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇pinky_promise⦈_ Quoting: Trust in open source communities - Duck Alignment Academy — In chapter 3 of Program Management for Open Source Projects, I talk about the importance of trust. “Open source communities run on trust,” I wrote. I go on to talk about building trust by establishing relationships and credibility. This is fine when you’re coming into a defined role, perhaps if you got hired to fill a sponsored role in a community or if a project leader has asked you to apply your skills to the project. Most people, of course, don’t come directly into a defined role. They start by making a small contribution: filing a bug, answering a question on a mailing list or forum, submitting a patch, and so on. Sometimes, they don’t even plan to stick around. They’re making one contribution and moving on. The kind of trust-building based on relationships doesn’t work as well in that case. But you still need trust to evaluate a contributor (and thus their contribution). This issue has only grown more relevant as large language models become widespread. If the person who submitted a pull request didn’t write the code, do they understand it? Can they answer maintainers’ questions or address feedback? Is the code even worth a maintainer’s time to review or is it plausible-looking garbage?

That’s why the first thing most of us do after installing Ubuntu—or any GNOME-based distro, for that matter—is install extensions like Dash to Panel and Tray Icons: Reloaded to tweak the workflow and make it feel more familiar. Now this raises an obvious question: if you have to immediately undo the default workflow, why use Ubuntu in the first place? The whole point of having dozens of Linux distros is that you can pick one already optimized for your specific workflow. If you want Ubuntu’s rock-solid stability packaged with a Windows-like workflow, distros like Zorin OS or Linux Mint have already done that for you. It just makes more sense to use those instead of Ubuntu.
