real problems—not just reskins — Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents: Are you tired of Arch-based distros that are just reskins with slightly different system defaults? Are you looking for a distro that actually tackles a real pain point the average user can’t solve on their own? Well, here are three Arch distros that genuinely solve real problems. There are hundreds of Linux distributions out there, but most of them aren't doing anything radically different. They're either changing the default look or tweaking system configurations that, honestly, you could set up yourself in an hour. What's rare is a distro that solves a problem you genuinely can't fix on your own—one that brings something architecturally new to the table. These three Arch-based distros do exactly that.

It’s the only one that provides true ownership over my software and complete flexibility to use my computer however I want. There has yet to be an operating system I prefer to power a laptop or desktop PC. Thing is, I don’t use a laptop or desktop anymore. Over two years ago, I ditched my laptop for a smartphone that could load up a full Android-based desktop when connected to a lapdock or an external monitor. Linux companies like Canonical and Purism had promised the idea of a single device that could adapt to different form factors, but it was Android that delivered on this vision of convergence.

Not necessarily; you can actually make use of the terminal without memorizing complex commands thanks to TUIs. A TUI, short for terminal user interface, is a program that you run in the terminal and that gives you something like a very primitive graphic window to complete tasks in. They're usually more visually engaging, which is why, in videos made by Linux influencers, they'll usually have a TUI of some sort running in on their monitor in the background. These are some neat ones I've come across and think are worth giving a try, even if you aren't a command line pro. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 499 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/App_verification_isn_t_Google_s_only_evil.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/App_verification_isn_t_Google_s_only_evil.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ App verification isn't Google's only evil⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Feb 26, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇fsf_logo⦈_ Quoting: App verification isn't Google's only evil — Google has proposed a plan to require Android developers to submit to onerous restrictions just to be allowed to publish their applications. These restrictions would impact the publishing of free software on ethical and freedom-respecting repositories like F-Droid. The FSF calls for an end to this practice. We support anyone making appeals to Google to express their disbelief and disappointment that Google would undertake such efforts to undermine software freedom in phones. But, reversal of this proposal is not enough. We must demand more. Google's abusive approach to the Android operating system has only gotten worse in recent years. This latest decision is just one in a long line of choices it has made to rob users of their freedom. Software freedom is sorely lacking in the "computers in our pockets" we call cell phones. 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. Google already has more than enough money. Android users still don't have their freedom.

In a post announcing Linux 7.0 rc1, Torvalds is quick to point out that the major number release version doesn't necessarily mean it's the most exciting version of the Linux kernel yet. "We have a new major number purely because I'm easily confused and not good with big numbers", says Torvalds (via The Register). "We haven't done releases based on features (or on "stable vs unstable") for a long long time now. So that new major number does *not* mean that we have some big new exciting feature, or that we're somehow leaving old interfaces behind. It's the usual 'solid progress' marker, nothing more." * ⚓ LWN ☛ Support_period_lengthened_for_the_6.6,_6.12,_and_6.18_kernels⠀⇛ The stated support periods for the 6.6, 6.12, and 6.18 kernels has been extended. The 6.6 kernel will be supported with stable updates through the end of 2027 (for four years of support total), while 6.12 and 6.18 will get updates through the end of 2028, for four and three years of support. * ⚓ Collabora ☛ RK3588_and_RK3576_video_decoders_support_merged_in_the upstream_Linux_Kernel⠀⇛ Support for Rockchip’s VDPU381 and VDPU383 decoders is now upstream in Linux, bringing mainline H.264/HEVC decode support, robust IOMMU-reset recovery, and new HEVC V4L2 UAPI controls aligned with Vulkan Video. * ⚓ Klara ☛ ZFS_Fast_Dedup_for_Proxmox_VE_9.x⠀⇛ ZFS Fast Dedup in Proxmox VE 9.x, powered by OpenZFS 2.3, introduces a bounded and predictable deduplication model using DDT quotas, prefetch, and prune operations. This guide explains architecture, enabling steps, sizing methodology, and workload selection for production deployments. * ⚓ Trail of Bits ☛ mquire:_Linux_memory_forensics_without_external dependencies⠀⇛ Today, we’re open-sourcing mquire, a tool that eliminates this dependency entirely. mquire analyzes Linux memory dumps without requiring any external debug information. It works by extracting everything it needs directly from the memory dump itself. This means you can analyze unknown kernels, custom builds, or any Linux distribution, without preparation and without hunting for symbol files. For forensic analysts and incident responders, this is a significant shift: mquire delivers reliable memory analysis even when traditional tools can’t. * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ With_disk_caches,_you_want_to_be_able_to attribute_hits_and_misses⠀⇛ Suppose that you have a disk or filesystem cache in memory (which you do, since pretty much everything has one these days). Most disk caches will give you simple hit and miss information as part of their basic information, but if you're interested in the performance of your disk cache (or in improving it), you want more information. The problem with disk caches is that there are a lot of different sources and types of disk IO, and you can have hit rates that are drastically different between them. Your hit rate for reading data from files may be modest, while your hit rate on certain sorts of metadata may be extremely high. Knowing this is important because it means that your current good performance on things involving that metadata is critically dependent on that hit rate. * ⚓ The New Stack ☛ WebAssembly_is_everywhere._Here's_how_it_works⠀⇛ Wasm is a binary instruction format that works alongside JavaScript. It speeds up web applications that process a high amount of data (i.e. image processing, heavy math computations, etc.). Think of it this way, if the purpose of the site is something that would be better performing if it were written in a language built to perform those tasks (Rust, C, C++, and the like), then it probably would be better written in one of those languages. And by using Wasm, it can be. This is no criticism of JavaScript. JavaScript wasn’t created to perform heavy computations. JavaScript was built to give the browser interactive functionality. And it’s still the leader at that. Wasm became a W3C standard in December 2019, and industry adoption followed quickly. It’s currently present on approximately 43,000 sites, including major products like Figma, Unity, and Fastly. * ⚓ Making_Linux_fly:_Siebel_School_researchers_work_on_aviation certification_for_the_Linux_kernel⠀⇛ In work awarded a best paper at the 2025 Digital Avionics Systems Conference, Siebel School of Computing and Data Science graduate student Wentao Zhang and his collaborators at Boeing developed safety-testing infrastructure for the Linux kernel, advancing the goal of certification for commercial aviation. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 711 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Busy_News_Day_Almost_Spring.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Busy_News_Day_Almost_Spring.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Busy News Day, Almost Spring⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 26, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Wild_pink_onion_(Allium_trichocoleim_Bornm.)⦈_ Today was a relatively_busy_news_day (almost 50 new pages) as Rianne and I keep productive while also relaxing for much-need balance.

It’s a super useful way to maintain notes, thoughts, projects, ideas, links, and basically anything else you’d want to capture and share. This naturally generated a bunch of replies from people asking (a) which Wiki software I use, and (2) which I’d recommend. Clara and I use MediaWiki for our public and private wikis. I have a lot of experience writing its markup, metadata, and templates thanks to being a Wikipedia contributor for two decades, as well as being a Whole Wheat Radio wheathead back in the day. It’s also a novelty having a wiki that looks like a Wikimedia site, so you can have a silly Cyclopedia of your own :). * ⚓ Kev Quirk ☛ Introducing_Pure_Comments_(and_Pure_Commons)⠀⇛ A few weeks ago I introduced Pure Blog a simple PHP based blogging platform that I've since moved to and I'm very happy.

In this series I’ll examine every aspect of this laptop from a Linux perspective. The Chuwi CoreBook Air Plus has a price of $629 (that’s not an affiliate link). There’s a $50 early bird discount available which brings the price down to $579. And Chuwi is offering LinuxLinks readers a 13% discount on the purchase price. Use the discount code LinuxAirPlus at the checkout. With both discounts applied, the price is $547.23. For UK readers, this means the laptop costs around £400. There’s also a 14-inch model available (the Chuwi Corebook Air) at a lower price. In this article, I put the Air Plus through a variety of benchmarks. Most of the tests use the Phoronix Test Suite. Together with the Air Plus, I’ve run the same benchmarks on a few other machines to put the results into context including an 11th generation Intel laptop. Note the N100 machine is much cheaper than the other machines. It’s included simply to put in perspective the performance improvement offered by the higher specification machines. * ⚓ matcha_-_terminal-based_email_client_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ matcha is a powerful, feature-rich email client for your terminal.

Pondering about the true nature of the soul of hardware components (whether they're software or hardware) doesn't strike me as a useful way to reason about whether hardware is usable in software freedom. Hardware is typically a black box. It's inescapable that, at some level, the machine will do what its designer made it to do, and there's nothing inherently wrong (as in unethical) about that. Moreover, there's no expectation that you could be able to change it at that level, for it could be all hardware circuits, that are impossible to modify. Even if you could build another machine or component with the desired change, that wouldn't modify the original machine or component. There's no ethical imperative for that. Even when you have access to its specifications and source code, which parts got compiled to hardware circuits and which were compiled into instructions for a general- or special-purpose programmable component is immaterial and irrelevant to tell whether the machine is usable in software freedom. It's a black box. It could range from all hardware to a qemu layer on top of all hardware or of a qemu layer on top of... If you watched Inception, you get the idea. Or maybe not 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇;-)⦈ As with AGPLed software on a remote server, even with specifications and source code, you can't generally tell whether there are undisclosed malicious or undesirable features omitted from the sources. Just as you can't generally tell whether friends really like you or just pretend to. It's the nature of black boxes, and if you worry too much about it, you may end up without friends, and without hardware. Sure, if they exhibit malicious behaviors, you probably don't want them in your life. For purposes of software freedom and ethics, what matters for programmable hardware is whether the machine is faithful to its programming model. If it takes your instructions and carries them out, you can use it as a black box for your computing in (software) freedom, whether the machine is on-premises hardware or a remote virtual machine. Now, if you can tell that it takes instructions and commands from others, or sends information to others, this is outside the black box, and then there may be grounds for suspicion that those behaviors may be malicious, even if they don't directly interfere with the exposed programming model. Software components outside the hardware black box bring with them an ethical issue that is not present in components inside the black box: they are visibly and indisputably software, and as such, you deserve control over what they do to your machine, even if what they do isn't properly your own computing. (I mention this because the fundamental guiding principle of free software philosophy is that you deserve control over the software you use to do your own computing; this goes a little beyond that.) Being clearly outside the black box, these software components are not covered by the inescapable nature of hardware, not even theoretically: they're indisputably software, and software is executable and modifiable and shareable unless someone prevents you from doing these things by unethical means. This post is about ethics, the core issue for free software, not about other issues such as security. For other issues, opening the black box may be important, whether it's software or hardware.

KDE Plasma makes it easy - here's how | ZDNET — KDE Plasma is a remarkably customizable desktop environment. On top of being highly flexible, it's also fast and stable, so it would make perfect sense why you might want to migrate from Windows to a KDE Plasma-powered desktop distribution. But if you want to carry over the look and feel of Windows 11, how do you do that? With a bit of tweaking. Don't worry, it's not nearly as hard as you might think it is; you just have to know where to look, what to add, and how to set it up.

What started as a straightforward design task in Inkscape quickly became a lesson in SVG optimization when my initial exports ballooned to over 5MB. Here's how I designed the logos and brought them down to a reasonable file size. * ⚓ OMG Ubuntu ☛ Typhoon_weather_app_clears_up_with_Qt6_port⠀⇛ The forecast is looking Qt for fans of open-source weather app Typhoon, the latest update to which swaps its creaking GTK3 backend for a lithe Qt 6 one. What’s interesting about this change in Typhoon 1.7.x is that it doesn’t impact the UI in any noticeable way. The app still uses a colourful, borderless window with optional transparency, and conveys weather forecast data via stark white text and glyphs. * ⚓ Qt ☛ New_in_Qt_6.11:_QRangeModel_updates_and_QRangeModelAdapter⠀⇛ When introducing_QRangeModel for Qt 6.10 I wrote that we'd try to tackle some limitations in future releases.

My experience will be complete and unchanged. My needs will be met. There will be tight integration, forethought and care in between every and any two interfaces. The system will not be a badly glued assembly of disparate parts, each doing its own thing in isolation. It will be a living, breathing, well-orchestrated WHOLE. Will that day ever come? I don't know. I used to think so. I sure hoped so. But with every year of Linux not happening, my hope waned a bit. Right now, I'm mighty skeptical. The reason is, I see a bunch of brand new attempts to make Linux "happen". At the same time, I see this brilliant self-sabotage. It's embedded in this almost simulation-like approach, whereby you can simply reset and start afresh. Hence, no support for "old" hardware, hence Wayland-only story, hence even the proposal to deprecate Gtk2. These are unrealistic attempts to reset the world to an arbitrary date, as if the users are simply going to abandon their work and habits and obey happily, because developers can't be bothered with this wee thing called backward compatibility. This "let's ignore the past and start fresh" approach is the anti- thesis of good user experience. It's fundamentally wrong. There cannot be a good product that ignores what people - the users - need. And people don't care about software frameworks and versions and silly details like that. They want consistency and predictability. And this is something Linux has never been able to do. Never. And the situation is only getting worse. Hopefully, we will see the "eureka" moment in the Linux desktop space, and product will be product. But after some 20+ years of waiting, even my hope has a limit. Farewell, dear Tuxies.

The Linux kernel has been gaining support for AccECN with TCP over the last few releases; the 7.0 release will enable it by default for general use. AccECN is a subtle change to how TCP works, but it has the potential to improve how traffic flows over both public and private networks. TCP, from the beginning, has included a couple of window counters used by each side of a connection to specify how much data it is willing to accept from the other at any given time. The windows work well to prevent the endpoints from being overwhelmed with packets, but early TCP did not consider the problem of congestion in the routers between the endpoints. That shortcoming made itself known in the form of severe congestion problems in the mid-to-late 1980s. Around that time, Van Jacobson and Mike Karels took on the problem of preventing congestion collapse. Their key insight was that dropped packets were almost never a result of corruption of the packets themselves. Instead, they were a signal that some system between the endpoints was experiencing congestion; indeed, dropped packets were the only way that a router could signal congestion. Jacobson implemented the first congestion-control algorithms that would slowly ramp up the transmission rate until packet loss was experienced, indicating the point where the capacity of the channel had been exceeded. Jacobson's classic paper describes this work in detail. * ⚓ The_first_half_of_the_7.0_merge_window_[LWN.net]⠀⇛ The merge window for Linux 7.0 has opened, and with it comes a number of interesting improvements and enhancements. At the time of writing, there have been 7,695 non-merge commits accepted. The 7.0 release is not special, according to the kernel's versioning scheme — just the release that comes after 6.19. Humans love symbolism and round numbers, though, so it may feel like something of a milestone. * ⚓ The_reverting_of_revocable_[LWN.net]⠀⇛ Transient devices pose a special challenge for an operating- system kernel. They can disappear at any time, leaving behind kernel data structures that no longer refer to an existing device, but which may still be in use by unknown kernel code. Managing the resulting lifecycle issues has frustrated kernel developers for years. In September 2025, the revocable resource-management patch series from Tzung-Bi Shih appeared to offer a partial solution to this problem. Since then, though, other problems have arisen, and the planned merging of this series into the 7.0 release has been called off. The core idea behind this series is the careful management of references to data structures associated with transient devices. Kernel code needing access to one of those structures would attempt to obtain a short-lived reference; the attempt will succeed if the device is still present and functioning normally. That reference is protected by sleepable read-copy- update (SRCU), ensuring that the data structure in question will not disappear until after the next SRCU grace period. If a device disappears from the system, the relevant driver will mark it as "gone" and deny any subsequent requests for references to its data structures. After an SRCU grace period has passed, the owner of the data structure, secure in the knowledge that no references to it can still exist, can safely free that structure. The uncertainty around the data's lifecycle has been replaced with a clear indication of when it is no longer in use. * ⚓ Compact_formats_for_debugging—and_more_[LWN.net]⠀⇛ At the 2025 Linux Plumbers Conference in Tokyo, Stephen Brennan gave a presentation on the debuginfo format, which contains the symbols and other information needed for debugging, along with some alternatives. Debuginfo files are large and, he believes, are a bit scary to customers because of the "debug" in their name. By rethinking debuginfo and the tools that use it, he hopes that free-software developers ""can add new, interesting capabilities to tools that we are already using or build new interesting tools"". He works on the sustaining-engineering team at Oracle, which means that, unlike many in the room, he is mainly concerned with ""fixing bugs in old released products"" rather than adding new features to the latest kernel. Fixing bugs in customers' production kernels has ""its own set of challenges"". It has given him some insight into the needs of enterprise-kernel users, as well, which is what led him to conclude that debuginfo is not well-liked in that world. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⠐⠿⡿⠏⠀⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⡄⠀⠉⠀⠀⠰⠒⠄⠀⠠⠄⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠁⣀⡞⠁⠈⠀⠈⠙⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⠂⢀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠙⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠂⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣽⣷⡀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣷⣶⣾⣷⣦⣀⣀⣤⣶⣶⣶⣿⣷⣶⣤⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣷⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣄⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣼⣿⣤⣴⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢪⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢻⡇⠙⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡛⠻⣿⣿⣿⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠈⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⠉⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡍⠛⢿⡿⠟⢁⠀⢠⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣯⣍⠉⠉⠛⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⡏⠉⡀⠀⠀⣀⠀⣼⣿⣿⠀⢸⣶⣿⡏⠁⠋⠛⠛⠛⠛⠻⢿⠁⢀⣀⡀⠀⠈⠉⠛⠻⠧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣧⡘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣤⣄⣀⠀⢀⣀⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣦⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠣⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣤⣼⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⠛⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⢿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣦⣤⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⢸⣿⣅⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⢺⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⢠⡞⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠛⢛⣛⠛⠛⠻⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⠀⠀⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣴⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣀⠀⠚⠻⠿⠿⠿⠷⠖⠀⠀⠉⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣶⣶⣾⣶⣶⣤⣤⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⠿⠟⠋⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠙⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣦⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣤⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⣙⣛⣉⣉⣩⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠛⠛⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⢛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⡛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠉⠀⢀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣦⣄⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡄⢀⣸⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⡿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣾⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣶⣿⣿⣷⡀⠀⠀⢀⡏⢁⡿⠋⡉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⡿⠋⢹⣿⣷⣄⠐⢾⣿⣿⣷⣾⣿⣶⣴⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣷⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢃⡄⢀⣀⣠⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣷⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⢠⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⡜⠛⢻⣿⣟⠁⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⣰⣿⡇⢀⡄⠀⠀⢘⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣤⣤⣿⣿⡿⢀⣴⣾⣿⠏⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⣼⡟⠐⠋⠙⠿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⢀⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⣼⣿⣿⡿⠀⣀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠆⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠉⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⣿⣿⣿⠇⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠻⢷⣦⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠁⠀⢠⣿⣿⣯⣀⣼⢟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠉⢻⡇⠀⢀⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣶⣦⣽⣿⣿⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠈⢻⡿⣿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠿⠛⠋⠉⠙⠟⠀⠉⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⠂⠸⠀⠀⣼⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢛⡋⢙⠋⠉⠻⢿⠟⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⠙⠛⠛⠋⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠛⠋⠉⠉⠙⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠁⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2384 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/ONLYOFFICE_Docs_9_3_released_Enhanced_PDF_Editor_more_signature.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/ONLYOFFICE_Docs_9_3_released_Enhanced_PDF_Editor_more_signature.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ ONLYOFFICE Docs 9.3 released: Enhanced PDF Editor, more signature options, Multipage View, Solver in sheets, and more⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Feb 26, 2026, updated Feb 26, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇ONLYOFFICE_Docs_9.3⦈_ Quoting: ONLYOFFICE Docs 9.3 released | ONLYOFFICE Blog — Signing documents digitally should feel as natural as using pen and paper.

The reward money is still gone, there is no bug-bounty, no money for vulnerability reports, but we return to accepting and handling curl vulnerability and security reports on Hackerone. Starting March 1st 2026, this is now (again) the official place to report security problems to the curl project. This zig-zagging is unfortunate but we do it with the best of intentions. In the curl security team we were naively thinking that since so many projects are already using this setup it should be good enough for us too since we don’t have any particular special requirements. We wrongly thought. Now I instead question how other Open Source projects can use this. It feels like an area and use case for Open Source projects that is under-focused: proper, secure and efficient vulnerability reporting without bug-bounty. * ⚓ Sandor Dargo ☛ Partial_Truth_vs_Explicit_Failure:_Designing_Honest System_Responses⠀⇛ Systems often face partial failure, yet our interfaces force us into a binary choice: success or error. Treating partial truth as full success hides uncertainty — and is often more dangerous than returning an explicit failure, even though reality usually lies somewhere between these two extremes. Let’s admit it: real-world systems rarely fail cleanly. There are many ways things can go partially wrong. Dependencies time out, caches go stale or fail to synchronize, subsystems lag behind or respond slower than expected. * ⚓ Max Bernstein ☛ A_fuzzer_for_the_Toy_Optimizer⠀⇛ So does it work? If you run it, it’ll hang for a bit and then report no issues. That’s helpful, in a sense… it’s revealing that it is unable to find a certain class of bug in the optimizer. Let’s comment out the main load-bearing pillar of correctness in the optimizer—removing aliasing writes—and see what happens.

Once these words are in standards and regulations, people downstream build processes around what they think the words mean, and unpicking those assumptions later is much harder than getting the names right in the first place. Toaster regulations at least have the advantage that everyone agrees on what a toaster is. * § Perl / Raku⠀➾ o ⚓ Fuzzix ☛ fuzzix_dot_org_::_Revisiting_Async_and_the_RtMidi_Event Loop⠀⇛ A coupla few years ago I wrote about Integrating RtMidi's event loop with IO::Async. The basic approach involved spawning a routine which set up a RtMidi callback to pass MIDI messages back to the main process via a channel. This routine then went to sleep to allow RtMidi's own event loop to take control. * § Education⠀➾ o ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ ‘Using_PRIMM_to_teach_programming’:_A_new_short course_for_educators⠀⇛ At the Raspberry Pi Foundation, we believe that learning to program equips young people with the knowledge and skills they need to thrive in an increasingly digital world. For many educators, teaching programming effectively can be challenging, particularly when their learners are at different stages in their programming journey. Ask learners to write code too early, and they might struggle or feel intimidated. Rely too heavily on step-by-step instructions, and you limit learners’ chances to explore ideas or develop deeper understanding. o ⚓ Eric MacAdie ☛ 2026-01_Austin_Emacs_Meetup⠀⇛ There were two meetings over the past two months for EmacsATX, the Austin Emacs Meetup group.

Based on Debian “Trixie,” Q4OS 6 Andromeda provides two desktop environments: The old-school, good-for-older-equipment Trinity desktop environment – which was the Q4OS standard for a while – as well as the up-to-date and modern KDE Plasma, which is the distro’s default. Q4OS uniquely positions itself as a distro designed with a focus on speed, stability, and a familiar user interface, making it an excellent choice for both older hardware and for those migrating to Linux from a Windows environment. Read_on How-To Geek: * ⚓ What_is_Q4OS,_and_should_you_install_it?⠀⇛ Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents: There are tons of Linux distros out there, but one that's been around for a while, offers a unique experience, and doesn't get much coverage is Q4OS. So what is this four-character operating system, and is it worth trying? I love trying out Linux distributions, and when I read about Q4OS, I was drawn to it. Retro computing is a ton of fun, and recreations of old-school desktops are both nostalgic and sensible to me. That's why I wanted to explore Q4OS and share my experience with it. ⠀⠂⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠀⠀⠀ ⣀⣐⣁⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀ ⣿⠩⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠭⠍⣿ ⣿⢰⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⡀⠀⢀⠀⠀⢀⠀⡀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⣿ ⣿⢸⣴⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣖⠁⠀⢠⣤⢀⣀⣛⣶⣶⣶⠀⢀⠀⠨⠁⠀⠏⠀⡀⠀⡀⠀⢴⣲⣳⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣄⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⡀⠀⢦⡹⢪⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣤⣀⢰⣶⣤⣶⣤⣤⣴⣤⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⠿⠿⢿⠿⢿⠿⢿⠿⠿⠿⣿⠻⠿⠿⡿⠿⠿⢿⠿⡿⡿⠿⠿⠟⠿⢿⠿⠿⠿⠻⠿⠿⢿⠿⠿⠿⢿⠿⠿⠿⠿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⡿⠻⡿⢿⠿⠿⠿⢿⠿⢿⠿⠿⠿⠿⡿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣇⡤⣤⢤⠤⢤⣤⣤⣴⡤⠤⡦⡠⠤⣤⣤⣽⣤⡤⣤⡧⣤⣤⡜⣠⡠⡤⡤⢤⣤⣤⣼⣤⣤⢄⣤⣤⡤⢼⣤⣠⣠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣠⣧⣀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣼⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣦⣤⣤⣤⣤⣦⣀⣆⣄⣠⣤⣼⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣧⣀⢀⡀⣀⣄⡀⣸⣄⣠⣀⣀⡠⣠⡀⣰⣀⣄⣄⡥⡀⣀⣀⡠⣄⣃⣀⣠⣄⣠⣀⣠⣀⣼⣄⣄⣀⣠⢄⣄⣄⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⢿⣿⢿⢿⡽⣿⠿⣿⠿⣿⢿⢿⢿⣿⣟⣟⡿⣿⡿⢿⣿⠿⢿⣿⣻⣿⢿⣿⠿⣿⢿⡿⣿⠽⠿⡿⡿⣿⣿⣿⢟⣿⡿⣿⢟⢿⡟⡿⣿⠿⣿⡿⠿⠿⣿⡻⠿⣿⣿⠿⡿⢿⢿⡿⣯⢿⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣧⣁⣤⣤⣤⣼⣤⣼⡤⣄⣄⣤⣤⣤⣤⣿⡤⣤⣧⣼⣠⣤⣔⣰⣧⣤⣤⣤⣴⣧⣤⣤⣼⣧⣤⣤⢤⣤⣧⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣠⣧⢤⣤⢤⢤⣤⢤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣼⣤⣤⣤⣴⣤⡤⣤⣧⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣼⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣇⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣅⣀⣘⣇⣀⣀⣀⣼⣀⣆⣸⣀⣀⣈⣇⡀⢀⣀⣸⣀⣀⣀⣀⣇⣀⣩⣀⡀⢀⣀⣀⡇⢀⣀⣀⣾⣀⣀⣀⣸⣐⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣈⡧⢀⣀⣀⣇⣀⡀⢀⣀⣸⣀⣀⣀⣀⣧⣀⣸⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⡏⣉⠉⠈⠉⡏⠉⠉⢙⠉⢘⠉⢉⠉⢁⣀⢉⠉⢉⠁⣉⢉⡉⠉⠉⠉⢹⠈⡉⠈⠉⡉⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⡟⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡍⣿⣿⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⢯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢻⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⢿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⢸⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣧⣠⣤⣾⣴⣶⣶⣴⣦⣴⣶⣶⣶⣦⣾⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣧⣴⣶⣴⣶⣶⣤⣴⣶⣦⣶⣶⣶⣼⣿⣿⣿⡟⣿⣿⢸⣿⣧⣶⣶⣴⣾⣄⣶⣤⣶⣶⣦⣦⣴⣦⣦⣶⣦⣤⣿⣿⢸⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣧⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣃⣿⣿⣜⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣓⣿⣿⣞⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣼⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⡿⢿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⡯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡯⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢀⣉⣉⣉⣩⣉⣉⣁⣉⢉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣈⣁⠁⣉⣈⣈⡉⣉⣨⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢉⣉⣁⣉⣉⣉⣡⣉⣈⣹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⡇⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⢸⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⡿⡧⣿⣿⡸⢿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⢸⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣯⠹⠉⡋⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠙⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⡟⢻⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⢸⣿⣷⣷⣷⣿⣿⣷⣦⣿⣾⣿⣷⣿⣧⣾⣿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣷⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣴⣶⣾⣾⣵⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⡇⣿ ⣿⣤⣵⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣴⣶⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2751 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Red_Hat_Promotion_of_Telemetry_and_Slop.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Red_Hat_Promotion_of_Telemetry_and_Slop.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Red Hat Promotion of Telemetry and Slop⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 26, 2026 * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ How_to_use_auto-instrumentation_with_OpenTelemetry⠀⇛ Visibility is no longer a luxury in cloud-native development, it is a requirement. As you transition from monolithic architectures to distributed microservices on Red_Hat OpenShift, the complexity of tracking requests across service boundaries increases exponentially. Implementing observability can often feel like assembling a puzzle with missing pieces. On Red Bait OpenShift, OpenTelemetry (OTel) is the gold standard for collecting traces, metrics, and logs. The OpenTelemetry (OTel) project has emerged as the industry standard for this challenge, providing a unified framework for collecting traces, metrics, and logs. However, the traditional manual instrumentation of every service is time-consuming and prone to error.  * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Refactoring_isn’t_just_technical—it’s_an_economic hedge⠀⇛ Refactoring is necessary to maintain system stability. But in an environment where your competitors are accelerating with AI, even when systems appear healthy, achieving stability through manual intervention is increasingly structurally expensive. The question is no longer whether systems still work, but whether organizations can afford the way they are keeping those systems working. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ MCP_security:_The_current_situation [Ed: Far too much slop promoting by Red Hat these days]⠀⇛ This abstraction layer is becoming more important as enterprises move beyond isolated chat interfaces toward AI systems that must integrate with ticketing platforms, code repositories, CI/CD pipelines, knowledge bases, cloud services, and more. MCP offers a shared interface for using tools and sharing data, which makes it easier to connect systems, allowing improvements in portability, and helps build scalable AI-driven automation. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2813 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Retro_Open_Hardware_Modding_RISC_V_Arduino_and_More.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Retro_Open_Hardware_Modding_RISC_V_Arduino_and_More.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Retro/Open Hardware/Modding: RISC-V, Arduino, and More⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 26, 2026 * ⚓ This_is_how_Fairphone_is_supporting_KLABU_Sports_Clubhouses_in_refugee communities_around_the_world⠀⇛ In case you missed it, Fairphone has teamed up with the non- profit KLABU, who are driving positive impact through the power of sport. KLABU builds clubhouses in refugee camps around the world, creating a space to connect, play and find friends for community members. * ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ The_COMIX-35,_a_reimagined_COMX-35⠀⇛ How am I only just realising this_kit_exists!? The COMIX-35 is an open-source clone of the 1980s COMX-35 8-bit home computer. It uses the RCA 1802 microprocessor which is strange and slow but holds the distinction of being the first CMOS microprocessor. The “35” is because the original computer has 32K of main memory + 3K of video RAM. * ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Telink_ML9118A_–_A_32-bit_RISC-V_IoT_module_with_Wi-Fi 6,_Bluetooth_5.4,_and_802.15.4_connectivity⠀⇛ Telink ML9118A is a wireless IoT module with Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4, and 802.15.4 (Zigbee/Thread/Matter) connectivity designed for smart home, smart lighting, and smart remote control applications. The module also features a 32-bit RISC- V microcontroller clocked at 160 MHz with 576KB SRAM, 4MB flash, and various peripheral interfaces such as SDIO 3.0, 19x GPIOs, I2C, SPI, UART, as well as I2S for audio. * ⚓ Arduino ☛ This_musical_payphone_rings_on_rainy_days⠀⇛ We are not robots operating on pure logic and rationality.

This causes the head to drag through the top of the part, emitting a small amount of plastic to smooth the surface. [Make Wonderful Things] asserts that you don’t need to do this time-consuming step. Instead, he proposes using statistical analysis to identify the optimal settings to place the top layer correctly the first time, as shown in the video below. * ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Control_Your_Smart_Home_With_Trek-Inspired_Comm_Badge⠀⇛ It seems worth pointing out that the computer in Star Trek: TNG did have a wake word: “computer”. On the other hand it seemed the badges were used to interface with it just as much as the wake word on screen, so this use case is still show accurate. You can watch it in the demo video below, but alas, at no point does his Home Assistant talk back. We can only hope he’s trained a text-to-speech model to sound like Majel Barrett- Roddenberry. At least it gives the proper “beep” when receiving a command. This would pair very nicely with the LCARS dashboard we featured in January. * ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Building_An_Interactive_Climbing_Wall⠀⇛ Structurally, there’s nothing too wild going on here. It’s a wood-framed climbing structure that stands 10 meters long and 2.5 meters high, and can be covered in lots of climbing holds. It’s the electronic side of things where it gets fun. An Arduino Due is installed to run the show, hooked up with a small TFT display and some buttons for control. It’s then hooked up to control a whole bunch of LEDs and some buttons which are scattered all across the wall. It’s also paired with an Arduino Nano which runs sound feedback, and a 433 MHz remote for controlling the system at a distance. * ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ Testing_the_Gigabyte_GA-H170-HD3_motherboard⠀⇛ Last weekend Clara and I found an NZXT tower by the side of the road for bulk council rubbish collection.

And that is a pity! (This is a longer story, so please stay to the end about the 2026 interview that almost happened.) In the sprawling, sterilized history of the digital age, Richard Matthew Stallman (RMS) exists as a singular, indigestible singularity. He is the ghost in the machine of modern computing, a figure whose code runs the internet but whose philosophy is actively rejected by the corporations that profit from it. To understand the trajectory of the twenty-first century’s technological infrastructure, one must confront the paradox of Stallman: he is simultaneously the industry’s most revered architect and its most ostracized pariah. He built the foundation, but he refuses to enter the building.

Combatting Slop ("AI" Scammers, Plagiarism, Plunder)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 26, 2026 * ⚓ Poisoning_scraperbots_with_iocaine⠀⇛ Web sites are being increasingly beset by AI scraperbots — a problem that we have written about before, and which has slowly ramped up to an occasional de-facto DDoS attack. This has not gone uncontested, however: web site operators from around the world have been working on inventive countermeasures. These solutions target the problem posed by scraperbots in different ways; iocaine, a MIT-licensed nonsense generator, is designed to make scraped text less useful by poisoning it with fake data. The hope is to make running scraperbots not economically viable, and thereby address the problem at its root instead of playing an eternal game of Whac-A-Mole. * ⚓ Do_androids_dream_of_accepted_pull_requests?_[LWN.net]⠀⇛ Various forms of tools, colloquially known as "AI", have been rapidly pervading all aspects of open-source development. Many developers are embracing LLM tools for code creation and review. Some project maintainers complain about suffering from a deluge of slop-laden pull requests, as well as fabricated bug and security reports. Too many projects are reeling from scraperbot attacks that effectively DDoS important infrastructure. But an AI bot flaming an open-source maintainer was not on our bingo card for 2026; that seemed a bit too far- fetched. However, it appears that is just what happened recently after a project rejected a bot-driven pull request. At least on the surface, it appears that an AI agent had gone on the attack against a Matplotlib maintainer for a rejected pull request—though how much autonomy it truly had, and who is behind the bot, is unknown. Some skepticism that the bot is operating entirely on its own is more than warranted. It is possible that a person is orchestrating the bot's actions more directly than it claims, but the bot's responses seem to be within the capabilities of current AI agents. * ⚓ Open_source_security_in_spite_of_AI_[LWN.net]⠀⇛ The curl project has found AI-powered tools to be a mixed bag when it comes to security reports. At FOSDEM 2026, curl creator and lead developer Daniel Stenberg used his keynote session to discuss his experience receiving a slew of low-quality reports and, at the same time, realizing that large language model (LLM) tools can sometimes find flaws that other tools have missed. FOSDEM is famously jam-packed with things to do and talks to attend; there are dozens of devrooms for different topics, as well as the main-stage keynotes and sessions. Stenberg's keynote was at 17:00 on Sunday, one of the last events on FOSDEM's schedule; no doubt the organizers selected his talk as the most likely to lure a large audience into the main room for the closing session that would follow it. The ploy worked; the room was effectively standing-room only. He opened his session by saying ""it's this, and then we can all go home. You look a little tired; it feels like I've talked to almost all of you already"". Stenberg said that many of the audience had already followed his struggles with AI; he has been active in blogging about and commenting on AI via social media for some time. He acknowledged that it would upset some of the audience that he was saying "AI" rather than being specific with terms like "LLM" or "machine learning" but, ""in my talk, I don't care. I'm using the marketing language. It's all 'AI'. When people throw something at me, they say they used AI to do it."" * ⚓ Open-source_mapping_for_disaster_response_[LWN.net]⠀⇛ At FOSDEM 2026 Petya Kangalova, a senior tech partnership and engagement manager for the Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team (HOT) spoke about how the project helps people map their surroundings to assist in disaster response and humanitarian aid. The project has developed a stack of technology to help volunteers collectively map an area and add in local knowledge metadata. ""One of the core things that we believe is that when we speak about disaster response or people having access to data is that they really need accessible technology that's free and open for anyone to use"." I was not able to attend FOSDEM 2026 in person, but watched the session via FOSDEM's live stream. The video and slides from the session are available on the FOSDEM 2026 talk page. HOT is a separate entity from OpenStreetMap (OSM), the grassroots endeavor to map and annotate the globe. But HOT, a non-profit non-governmental organization (NGO), cut a deal to use the OSM name and maps, as well contribute its work back to OSM's maps. LWN first covered HOT in 2014. The project focuses on "blank spots", which are areas of the world that lack maps, and especially those areas suffering (or might easily suffer from) a disaster such as a hurricane or volcano activity. Disasters around the world can kill hundreds of thousands of people and leave millions displaced each year. People, especially in dire circumstances, ""need technology that is open and free"", Kangalova said. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 3313 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Stricter_is_Less_Popular.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Stricter_is_Less_Popular.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Stricter is Less Popular⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 26, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Angry_man_with_chains⦈_ Reprinted with permission from Alex Oliva. When society at large still accepted slavery, ending slavery for good was politically more difficult than still allowing some forms of slavery such as that of prisoners, or of those who had already been born into bondage. In general, until society at large agrees that a proposed social change is desirable, less strict versions thereof will tend to be more popular, by the simple arithmetic fact that every point of strictness brings with it more social inertia and possibly more opposition. Once a weaker idea sets in, however, it may be much harder to displace than the one it already displaced, especially if those that promote the weaker/partial goal oppose and publicly promote the rejection of the higher goal. Keeping the end goal in sight and in mind helps avoid aiming for and settling for less. Witness what happened in the Free Software movement: a dissidence set out to promote some development methods that often bring about free software, but without adopting user freedom as a core value. Tolerating programs that harm users is perceived by them as a virtue of flexibility, rather than as a vice of recklessness. Attracting businesses interested in that flexibility that promotes more efficient exploitation of gratis labor, and that fails to teach users to avoid traps, has made the dissidence wildly more popular. But that popularity doesn't make that dissidence ethically or socially superior, or even more desirable or successful. Social_change_is_not democratic. However, as their lax stance viciously criticizes our stricter notions of rejecting software use cases in which others gain unjust power over users and invariably abuse them, such as programs without source code, under restrictive licenses, agreements or technical measures, or otherwise deployed under someone else's control or with backdoors, the popularity of that stance hinders the achievement of software freedom for all, and that makes it part of the problem. PS: If it weren't for this note, I'd surely (from past experience) face vicious strawman criticism claiming that I am comparing the fight against slavery with the struggle for software freedom, as if I considered the harms of both forms of unjust powers to be similar, so let me preempt that: I don't. They're significantly different struggles for desirable social changes, and even though they have some overlaps, they fight different orders of magnitude of injustice. That both issues I chose to use as examples happen to be related with freedom was a coincidence, but that both struggles for freedom face opposition from powerful economic interests isn't a coincidence.

That distribution was PCLinuxOS. The goal was to be something any Windows user could log into and feel right at home. Back then, it wasn't nearly as easy to create/theme a desktop to look like whatever Windows iteration was popular, but developers and designers sure did try. PCLinuxOS was the cream of the crop. For a while. And then it seemed to vanish into the ether. It was still there, only it had fallen out of favor. If I had to guess why that happened, I would say it's probably due to the rise of distributions like Linux Mint and elementaryOS, both of which resemble the desktops for which users have become accustomed.

error reporting. Covers error levels, display_errors, error_log, php.ini settings, and runtime configuration with error_reporting(). * § idroot⠀➾ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Brasero_on_Rocky_GNU/Linux_10⠀⇛ Rocky GNU/Linux 10 is a powerful, enterprise-grade GNU/ Linux distribution — and if you need a reliable, open- source disc-burning tool to go with it, Brasero is one of the best choices available. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Proton_Mail_on_Debian_13⠀⇛ Privacy is no longer a luxury — it’s a necessity. With data breaches, corporate email surveillance, and government overreach becoming daily headlines, millions of users are switching to encrypted alternatives. Proton Mail is one of the most trusted names in private email, offering Swiss-based end-to-end encryption that keeps your messages out of the wrong hands. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_OpenVAS_on_Ubuntu_24.04_LTS⠀⇛ Network security is not optional — it is a responsibility. Whether you manage a single Ubuntu server or an entire enterprise infrastructure, knowing what vulnerabilities exist in your environment is the first step toward defending it. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Figma_on_Rocky_GNU/Linux_10⠀⇛ Rocky GNU/Linux 10 has emerged as a powerful, enterprise- grade platform for professionals seeking stability and performance. Designers and UI/UX developers working within this ecosystem often need access to Figma, the collaborative design tool that has revolutionized the way teams create interfaces, prototypes, and design systems. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_ELK_Stack_on_Debian_13⠀⇛ Managing logs across multiple servers can quickly turn into a chaotic, time-consuming mess — especially as infrastructure scales. That is exactly why the ELK Stack has become the go-to solution for system administrators and DevOps engineers worldwide. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_OpenMRS_on_Debian_13⠀⇛ Managing patient records efficiently is one of the most critical challenges in modern healthcare. For hospitals, clinics, and community health centers—particularly in developing regions—proprietary Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems often carry licensing fees that are simply unaffordable. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Morphosis_on_AlmaLinux_10⠀⇛ Document conversion on GNU/Linux has always been a power move. But for years, doing it well meant wrestling with Pandoc’s command-line syntax — flags, format strings, and output paths all typed by hand. Morphosis changes that entirely. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 4325 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/today_s_leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/today_s_leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ today's leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 26, 2026 * § Graphics Stack⠀➾ o ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Open_source_graphics_drivers_Mesa_26.0.1_released with_various_bug_fixes_and_a_security_fix_|_GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ Developer Eric Engestrom announced the Mesa 26.0.1 update for open source graphics drivers, the first set of bug- fixes for the latest release. * § Games⠀➾ o ⚓ Ubuntu Handbook ☛ Lutris_0.5.22_added_Steam_Family_Sources_&_New Game_Runners⠀⇛ Lutris, the free open-source game manager for Linux, released new 0.5.20 in last week and then 0.5.22 today. This version added few new sources to manage more games, and more and updated runners with ability to run more games. * § Desktop Environments (DE)/Window Managers (WM)⠀➾ o § GNOME Desktop/GTK⠀➾ # ⚓ OMG Ubuntu ☛ Dynamic_Music_Pill_adds_slick_media_controls to_the_GNOME_panel⠀⇛ Add animated media controls to your GNOME panel or dock with Dynamic Music Pill, a slick GNOME Shell extension showing album art, waveforms and track info. * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o ⚓ HaikuOS ☛ Haiku_to_mentor_interns_in_Surveillance_Giant_Google Summer_of_Code_2026⠀⇛ Haiku is proud to once again be part of the Surveillance Giant Google Summer of Code. Over the summer, new contributors will work on improving Haiku and related applications, with help from our mentor team.

Instead, we will leverage a Large Language Model (LLM) to translate “natural language” descriptions of desired actions into technical commands. Achieving this setup requires the integration of three distinct systems: [...] ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 4416 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Ubuntu_Showtime_Ptyxis_and_Upgrades_from_Zorin_OS_17_to_18.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Ubuntu_Showtime_Ptyxis_and_Upgrades_from_Zorin_OS_17_to_18.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Ubuntu: Showtime, Ptyxis, and Upgrades from Zorin OS 17 to 18⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 26, 2026 * ⚓ OMG Ubuntu ☛ Showtime_video_player_edges_closer_to_Ubuntu_debut⠀⇛ Those testing Ubuntu 26.04 daily builds or monthly snapshots may have noticed that Showtime, GNOME’s spiffy new video player, is not preinstalled in the ‘extended selection’, despite being announced as a replacement for Totem. It’s especially confusing since Resources system monitor, announced as a software swap the same time as Showtime, has been on the ISO for a while. Credits need not roll on hope yet, as Showtime could be making its debut soon. Its latest package upload to the resolute archives includes a change that goes some way to explaining why it’s not been present sooner. * ⚓ Ubuntu Handbook ☛ Ubuntu’s_Default_Terminal_Ptyxis_50_adds_Per-Tab Profile_Support⠀⇛ Ptyxis, the default terminal emulator for Ubuntu since 25.10, released version 50 RC yesterday. If everything goes well, the new 50 version of this container-oriented terminal emulator will be released in next few weeks, and it will be default for next Ubuntu 26.04 LTS. The new version added support changing profile on per-tab basis. * ⚓ Zorin Group ☛ Upgrades_from_Zorin_OS_17_to_18_Are_Now_Available⠀⇛ If you’re using Zorin OS 17, you can now upgrade your computer to Zorin OS 18 directly using the Upgrade Zorin OS app, without needing to re-install the operating system. That means you’ll be able to keep your files, apps, and settings, all while taking advantage of the new features and improvements in Zorin OS 18. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 4473 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Web_Browsers_and_DNSSEC_Picks.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Web_Browsers_and_DNSSEC_Picks.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Web Browsers and DNSSEC Picks⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Feb 26, 2026 * § Web Browsers/Web Servers⠀➾ o ⚓ Matthias Zöchling ☛ Breaking_points⠀⇛ How well a site fares also depends on the underlying technology. If you are lucky, the server already returns your requested content in the retrieved HTML. On the other hand, if you have to wait for a large JavaScript file to get requested, downloaded, parsed, and executed, so that it then hopefully will fetch actual content, there’s a chance some step along the way won’t be successful, especially on a slow connection. As a result, you may be starring at a blank page indefinitely, usually without any information that something went wrong. Put simply, I have a feeling that the “HTML” you got looks like this, courtesy of insert name of JavaScript framework: [...] o ⚓ Kevin McDonald ☛ HTTP/2_From_Scratch:_Part_2⠀⇛ In the previous post, we successfully performed the TLS handshake and sent our 24-byte connection preface. To the server, we now look like a valid HTTP/2 client. But as soon as that preface is sent, the server starts talking back in a language we haven’t yet taught our Go code to understand. While HTTP/1.1 communicated in lines of text separated by newlines, HTTP/2 communicates in frames. Every single interaction from here on out (settings, headers, data, and keepalive pings) happens inside of a frame. To progress, we need to build a parser that can slice into these binary packets and make sense of the bits inside. o ⚓ Arjen Wiersma ☛ Introducing_Tsjoch⠀⇛ Before algorithms decided what you should read, people shared ideas on blogs and personal websites. They wrote for the love of writing. Readers found them through word of mouth, blogrolls, and RSS feeds. That is the world in which I fell in love with the internet and I would love to bring it back. That world still exists, it's just harder to find. tsjo.ch is a directory of hand-picked RSS feeds, organized by topic and curated by real people. No algorithms, no ads, no engagement metrics. Just good writing, discovered the old-fashioned way. This is my personal project that I built to solve this problem. * § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ o ⚓ APNIC ☛ Towards_an_industry_best_practice_for_DNSSEC_automation⠀⇛ So what? Why care about DNSSEC adoption anyway? It isn’t the first thing to fail despite great expectations, and it sure won’t be the last. Well, we should care. Because it’s not about DNSSEC in itself. It’s about fencing off real threats to data authenticity and integrity (like DNS spoofing, BGP hijacking, and so on) and, in doing so, raising Internet security on a larger scale. So, we’d better get interested in the shape of DNSSEC’s adoption curve, and in the causes that keep it from being steeper. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 4577 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Wireshark_4_6_4_Updates_Protocol_and_Capture_File_Support_Fixes.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/02/26/Wireshark_4_6_4_Updates_Protocol_and_Capture_File_Support_Fixes.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Wireshark 4.6.4 Updates Protocol and Capture File Support, Fixes More Bugs⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Marius Nestor on Feb 26, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Wireshark_4.6.4⦈_ Wireshark 4.6.4 is here to update support for the Art-Net, AT, BGP, GSM DTAP, GSM SIM, IEEE 802.11, IPv6, ISAKMP, MBIM, MySQL, NAS-5GS, NTS-KE, SGP.22, Silabs DCH, Socks, TDS, TECMP, USB HID, ZB TLV, and ZBD protocols, as well as to update support for the BLF, pcapng, and TTL capture files.
