As a dual booter, I jump between Linux and Windows every day, and I find Linux far more feature-rich compared to Windows. I use Linux for my personal projects and Windows for my professional responsibilities. This puts me in a unique position where I get to do the same tasks in two different ways—and, from my personal experience, I find the Linux way superior. Here are the seven reasons why!

Regardless of the underlying system specifications, you’ll find a battalion of Linux flavors that ship with neat GUI elements and essential packages. Heck, if you’ve got a gaming system that’s almost a decade old, you can even help it run a bunch of modern titles by getting rid of Windows and choosing a Linux distro that includes the right drivers for your system. That said, I tend to use server platforms to revive my aged computing companions. Contrary to what you might think, you can build a reliable home lab for your self-hosting and experimentation needs with outdated PCs, cheap thin clients, and low-end NAS units. All you need is a bit of patience and something as lightweight as Proxmox. * ⚓ XDA ☛ I_moved_everything_to_Proxmox_and_learned_that_fewer_boxes doesn't_mean_more_reliable⠀⇛ I didn’t move half of my home lab into Proxmox because I wanted to centralize everything for neatness. I did it because I got tired of little boxes scattered around my apartment, each doing one job and each becoming its own maintenance chore. A dedicated system for this, a Raspberry Pi for that, a mini PC doing something else entirely. It worked, but it also felt like I was carrying around a growing pile of tiny obligations. ⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⣿⠋⠙⠿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣷⣄⢀⠀⠈⢻⡇⠀⠀⠈⠘⣿⠛⠃⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠐⠿⠺⠫⠀⠉⢏⠙⠀⣿⣿⣿⣛⡿⢶⡄

Even Arch Linux's bundled service, Archinstall, has been enjoying updates that make it easier to use. However, once people have the distro successfully running on their computers... then what? Well, it seems PacHub has an answer. This third-party app makes it much easier to use the legendary duo of Pacman and the Arch User Repository (AUR) by adding a UI that can control both. And while it's not officially part of Arch's app package just yet, we hope it gets added soon. * ⚓ XDA ☛ These_4_Linux_tools_solve_problems_the_default_apps_shouldn't have_left_unsolved⠀⇛ Linux Mint Cinnamon gives you a very usable desktop from the start. You get a browser, a file manager, basic system tools, and defaults that make sense without much setup. That's enough to get up and running right away. But once you start using it every day, a few gaps start to appear, and you'll find yourself wanting an app to fill them. The apps that matter most are the ones you install without thinking when you set up a new system.

It provides a guided TUI installer, sensible defaults, and optional desktop environments such as KDE Plasma and GNOME, allowing users to get a working system quickly while still maintaining full control. Archium stays close to upstream Arch, avoiding heavy modifications or unnecessary abstraction. The goal is to reduce setup time and complexity, not to hide how the system works.

Luckily the very first Pentium (with MMX!) is still in-tree, but for how much longer? We also find out that Ubuntu is raising their minimum RAM requirement to 6GB from 4. Honestly, it's about time. Then, some bittersweet news. Leo finally gets to play around with the Firefox built-in VPN, but Dan still hasn't seen it. What we found out, though, is that Firefox will happily leak your real IP address with WebRTC. Does this defeat the purpose?! Lastly, we try to guess what's going to happen next with RAM prices. They seem to have hit their peak, but will they really come tumbling down? At least for Raspberry Pi, that's not the case as price rises across the entire line are happening.

A FreeBSD jail is supposed to be small - sometimes a single static binary, an rc.d script, and a few lines in rc.conf. Installing Python into every jail just so Ansible can run its setup module is, to borrow a phrase, the tail wagging the dog. I already wrote about a workaround for Ansible: the jailexec connection plugin, which SSHes to the jail host and uses jexec to tunnel commands into each jail. It works, and I still reach for it when I already have an Ansible setup. But many Ansible modules assume Python on the target, so in practice some of those jails still end up growing a Python interpreter. Then I tried cdist, and everything got smaller. * ⚓ Adam Russell ☛ NetBSD/MacPPC_9.4_Installation_on_a_QEMU_emulated PowerPC_Macintosh⠀⇛ Apple last used PowerPC chips about twenty years ago, then transitioned to Intel based chips until 2020 with the introduction of ARM based systems. For many years the older PowerPC based systems could be inexpensively purchased on the used market. As time continues to pass these are increasingly rare to find at all, much less in good working order. For the time in which they could be easily obtained cheaply they were a good source of reasonably powerful systems that could be leveraged for research and hobby usage via open source operating systems, mainly NetBSD and Debian Linux. These operating systems continue to support the PowerPC architecture. Indeed the platform is far from dead and continues to see advancement and usage, albeit it mostly in niche contexts. QEMU supports PowerPC emulation of a nice representative variety of systems. For our purposes we will only focus on emulation of PowerPC Apple Macintosh systems. ⚓ ZFS_helped_to_remove_code⠀⇛ Anyway I bring this up because I got an SMS from him this morning saying he’d been able to replace most of his codebase with ZFS, and managed to ink out a significant performance boost in the process.

I'll touch a bit on the Huion driver and the OpenTablet driver but primarily this explains the intended integration[1]. While I have access to some Huion devices and have seen reports from others, there are likely devices that are slightly different. Huion's vendor ID is also used by other devices (UCLogic and Gaomon) so this applies to those devices as well. This post was written without Hey Hi (AI) support, so any errors are organic artisian hand-crafted ones. Enjoy. * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ Deploy_TAP-as-a-Service_in_OpenStack_Services_on_OpenShift⠀⇛ As modern cloud infrastructure becomes increasingly complex and multi-tenant, observability and security monitoring have become foundational requirements for OpenStack operators. One key network diagnostic technique used in traditional and virtualized environments is port mirroring, which allows administrators to capture and analyze traffic flowing through a particular interface. You can redirect mirrored traffic to third-party analytics tools and solutions hosted on a different or same host as the mirror port. Typically, the mirrored traffic is carried over overlay tunnels established between the source and destination of the mirror.  * ⚓ GNOME ☛ Felipe_Borges:_RHEL_10_(GNOME_47)_Accessibility_Conformance Report⠀⇛ Red Hat just published the Accessibility_Conformance_Report_ (ACR)_for_Red_Bait_Enterprise_GNU/Linux_10. * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ Build_more_secure,_optimized_Hey_Hi_(AI)_supply_chains_with Fromager [Ed: IBM Red Hat is boosting slop plagiarism and climate disaster]⠀⇛ § Editor's note⠀➾ This article was adapted from a post originally published on Medium and is republished here with the author's permission. * ⚓ Cockpit_Project:_Cockpit_360⠀⇛ Cockpit is the modern_GNU/Linux_admin_interface. Here are the release notes from Cockpit 360: [...] * ⚓ XDA ☛ The_Flatpak_versus_native_packages_debate_finally_made_sense_when I_stopped_looking_for_a_winner⠀⇛ For a long time, I treated the Flatpak-versus-native package debate like one of those Linux arguments that never really end and never really change anything. I knew the usual talking points, and I’d heard them from every angle. Flatpaks were supposed to be more convenient, native packages were supposed to be cleaner, and everyone seemed convinced their camp had already won. The longer I used Linux, though, the less that tidy split matched what I was actually doing on my own system. What changed my mind wasn’t one dramatic failure or one magical app install that fixed everything overnight. It was the slow realization that I was using different kinds of software for different reasons, but pretending they all belonged in the same bucket. Some apps needed to stay close to the system and feel tightly integrated. Others just needed to work, stay current, and avoid dragging me into dependency drama. Once I started looking at packages through that lens, the Flatpak-versus- native debate stopped feeling ideological and started feeling practical. * ⚓ XDA ☛ I_switched_from_Ubuntu_to_Fedora_after_10_years,_and_I_didn't expect_to_miss_this⠀⇛ Fedora had been calling to me for a while. Its bleeding-edge kernel, the latest in software, and clean vanilla GNOME were some of the main reasons I made the jump. I was also getting tired of a few issues that only Ubuntu seemed to have, like Snap slowly creeping into every aspect of my system. Ubuntu had treated me fine overall, but I wanted to try something else as a daily driver. For the most part, I've been happy with Fedora since the switch. It's a fast and clean Linux distribution, and some tasks feel more responsive than Ubuntu. I was mostly worried about switching from APT to DNF and no longer using PPAs. I thought that would take some getting used to, but it was a surprisingly painless aspect of the transition. The part of Ubuntu that I missed was the Additional Drivers tool. After a decade, I thought there would be something more interesting to miss, but there really wasn't. I had assumed that Fedora would have something equivalent, but I've now found that there's nothing quite as easy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⢀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣼⣿⡟⠻⣿⣿⠅⠀⢈⣸⣦⣥⣥⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⡂⠀⢠⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠠⠀⠤⠄⠄⠤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⢠⣿⡇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠙⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⣤⣴⣶⡆⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣈⡿⠀⠀⠀⡈⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⡀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⡿⡙⣿⣿⣿⠓⠻⠟⠀⠀⢣⠿⢹⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⣨⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣽⡆⢀⣧⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⠀⣸⡟⠉⣙⡄⢨⠀⠀⠀⠘⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡈⢹⠟⢾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠠⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣷⣿⣶⣜⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠻⡀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠙⣯⣄⠐⠂⢠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣥⢈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⡷⠀⠀⡻⠿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀ ⢂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡋⠛⣛⣋⣁⣀⣙⣁⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠿⢿⢋⣛⡛⣋⣐⣛⠀⠀⠐⠛⠘⠿⠿⠿⠾⠟⢏⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣧⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠉⠙⠛⡇⠀⠀⠀ ⡀⠦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣯⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣄⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⣶⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣷⡄⠱⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠘⠻⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⢿⢿⣿⡿⣿⣿⠿⠇⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣄⠈⢂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢰⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣶⣶⣦⢤⠤⠤⡅⠀⠀⠀⢨⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠈⢿⣿⣧⡀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠙⣿⣿⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣿⣷⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠻⣿⣦⡀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣼⢹⣅⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⡇⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠙⠛⢿⢿⠿⡿⡟⣋⣉⢛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⡇⡟⠻⣿⡟⠐⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⣦⣤⣤⣬⣬⣴⣴⣛⣓⣓⣋⡊⠚⠁⠃⣠⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠙⠏⠹⠙⠋⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠛⠟⠹⠻⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠁ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1081 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/Free_and_Open_Source_Software.1.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/Free_and_Open_Source_Software.1.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Free and Open Source Software⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Apr 14, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇music_player⦈_ * ⚓ Ratic_-_offline_music_player_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Linux offers a wide range of free and open source music players, from desktop defaults to excellent cross-platform options.

That included structural change to shift releases from Jekyll pages to proper Zola posts. This enabled two things that weren't possible before: [...] * § Education⠀➾ o ⚓ APNIC ☛ CDNs,_optical_communications,_and_AI_at_NZNOG_2026⠀⇛ NZNOG 2026 was held in Christchurch in March 2026. The networking community continues to grow, and the attendee count of 260 was the largest so far. New Zealand is a moderately small island economy in the South Pacific, and it appears to make up for its geographic isolation with its openness to innovation and experimentation. The networking community has a long track record of innovation, both in technology and in the underlying investment models for its network infrastructure. Here’s a summary of some of the sessions that I found to be of interest. * § FSF / Software Freedom⠀➾ o ⚓ Alisa Sireneva ☛ Programming_used_to_be_free⠀⇛ I’m deeply grateful to the FOSS community and the people around it for enabling unfettered access to information and software, because that’s what allowed me to get into this profession in the first place. It wasn’t thanks to programs or services with free trials – I needed to be able to keep learning after a month has passed. It wasn’t thanks to student plans – I was a child without agency who couldn’t submit any confirmational documentation or pay out of pocket. It wasn’t thanks to free plans – I was already limited by status and knowledge gaps, and further restrictions would only exacerbate the issue. I hacked together GitHub Pages, GitLab CI/CD, and Heroku to implement server-side logic. I used decentralized networks. The difference between $0 and $1 wasn’t “free” vs “cheap”. In my circumstances, it was “possible” vs “unachievable”. * § Openness/Sharing/Collaboration⠀➾ o § Open Data⠀➾ # ⚓ [Old] OpenStreetMap ☛ OpenStreetMap_Carto_version_v6.0.0 released⠀⇛ I am happy to annouce that, after a long time we, the OpenStreetMap Carto maintainers, have prepared a new major release of the OpenStreetMap Carto stylesheet (the default stylesheet on the OSM website). Once changes are deployed on openstreetmap.org it will take a couple of days before all tiles show the new rendering. * § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ o ⚓ Rob Knight ☛ This_Post_About_Outdoor_Taps_Is_Actually_About Sharing_Things⠀⇛ This page from Hozelock explains threads on a tap are "sized according to the standard British Standard Pipe, also known as BSP". Yay standards. Looking into it more there seemed to be three options: 1/2″ BSP, 3/4″ BSP, and 1″ BSP which correspond to an outer thread measurement of 21mm, 26.5mm, and 33mm. I measured my tap with my tape measure and it looked to be 21mm or 1/2″ BSP. I found the correct adaptor I would need based on this but I already had that exact thing in my hand and it was the aforementioned one that didn't fit. The 1/2 was a tiny bit too small, the 3/4 was too big. I grabbed my calipers to get a more accurate measurement and it was actually 22mm which according to maths is larger than 21mm. o ⚓ Joost de Valk ☛ Standards_don't_prove_themselves⠀⇛ Web standards don’t get adopted because bots start requesting something that doesn’t exist yet. They get adopted because publishers start serving something, which gives crawlers a reason to look for it, which gives more publishers a reason to serve it. That’s the cycle. Someone has to go first. * § Security⠀➾ o ⚓ APNIC ☛ NIST_updates_its_secure_DNS_deployment_guide:_What operators_need_to_know⠀⇛ NIST’s updated DNS deployment guide treats DNS as a core security control, offering practical guidance on protective DNS, encryption, DNSSEC, and both authoritative and recursive operations to help operators strengthen resilience, visibility, and policy enforcement. o ⚓ LWN ☛ Security_updates_for_Monday⠀⇛ Security updates have been issued by AlmaLinux (fontforge, freerdp, libtiff, nginx, nodejs22, and openssh), Debian (bind9, chromium, firefox-esr, flatpak, gdk-pixbuf, inetutils, mediawiki, and webkit2gtk), Fedora (corosync, libcap, libmicrohttpd, libpng, mingw-exiv2, mupdf, pdns-recursor, polkit, trafficserver, trivy, vim, and yarnpkg), Mageia (libpng12, openssl, python-django, python-tornado, squid, and tomcat), Red Hat (rhc), Slackware (openssl), SUSE (chromedriver, chromium, cockpit, cockpit-machines, cockpit-podman, cockpit-tukit, crun, firefox, fontforge-20251009, glibc, go1, helm3, libopenssl-3-devel, libpng16, libradcli10, libtasn1, nghttp2, openssl-1_0_0, openssl-1_1, ovmf, perl-XML- Parser, python-cryptography, python-Flask-HTTPAuth, python311-Django4, python313-Django6, python315, sudo, systemd, tar, tekton-cli, tigervnc, util-linux, and zlib), and Ubuntu (mongodb, qemu, and retroarch). ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1529 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/Games_Dome_Keeper_Portal_2_Community_Edition_and_More.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/Games_Dome_Keeper_Portal_2_Community_Edition_and_More.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Games: Dome Keeper, Portal 2: Community Edition, and More⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Apr 14, 2026 * ⚓ Dome_Keeper_free_multiplayer_update_and_Lost_Keepers_DLC_have_launched |_GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ The excellent Dome Keeper now has multiplayer, and there's a new content DLC available that brings The Infiltrator and The Beastmaster characters. * ⚓ Portal_2:_Community_Edition_arrives_in_Beta_on_April_17_| GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ The Portal 2 modding scene is about to explode with the upcoming Beta release of Portal 2: Community Edition, giving you some big new tools.

A key factor in this progress is Valve’s Proton compatibility layer, which enables many Windows- exclusive games to run smoothly on GNU/Linux by translating backdoored Windows Hey Hi (AI) into Linux-friendly instructions. * ⚓ XDA ☛ SteamOS_couldn’t_revive_my_old_GPU,_so_I_went_with_this_non- Bazzite_distro_instead⠀⇛ I’ve always been excited to try out new distributions, no matter how insane or quirky they may sound. With SteamOS now available for conventional desktops, I wanted to deploy it bare-metal on my old PC, partly because I wanted to see the distro powering Steam Decks, and also because it seemed like a fun way to breathe some new life into my aged computing companion as a couch-gaming system. Unfortunately, SteamOS is infamous for playing fair with Nvidia GPUs, and with Team Green discontinuing driver support for Pascal series, I had the worst combo for this project. [...] I’ve been a fan of Pop_OS! ever since I installed it on my first PC back in 2020, and its stable nature is what made me try using it for this project. The only catch was that I couldn’t use the Nvidia version of the Pop_OS! Image, as Team Green’s latest drivers don’t support the Pascal family. So, I went with the generic image for the live boot facility, and although the setup process was wrapped up faster than every other distro I’d tried so far, the real challenge was booting into the OS afterward. Luckily, Pop_OS! worked just fine post- installation, and I was able to browse multiple forum posts looking for the right way to configure Pascal drivers on this PC. * ⚓ XDA ☛ I_turned_my_living_room_into_a_Raspberry_Pi-flavored_arcade without_storing_a_single_game_locally⠀⇛ Over the years, I’ve built (and disassembled) dozens of projects with my Raspberry Pi, but a retro gaming machine has got to be one of my favorites. Sure, this tiny single-board computer may not have enough processing capabilities to emulate PlayStation 2 and newer consoles, but it’s great at handling games designed for ancient gaming machines and slightly modern- ish systems. Better yet, there are a handful of emulation-centric distros available for the Raspberry Pi family, with each platform bringing its own unique UI elements and emulation cores. Toss in a hardwired Ethernet connection, and my Raspberry Pi + Batocera combo becomes a full-on arcade machine capable of emulating the ROM files kept on my network-attached storage server. * ⚓ XDA ☛ I_replaced_Windows_with_Bazzite_on_my_handheld,_and_every_game loads_faster_now⠀⇛ I haven't had the best of luck with Bazzite in the past, but I've been giving it another go on a Legion Go this time, and it's been fantastic. Everything is snappy, whether in gaming mode or on the Gnome desktop, but there's one thing I didn't expect. That's games loading faster, from the time I press play in Steam. I'm not quite sure why, either. It's the same SSD that had Windows 11 installed on, the same games, and the same Steam account. Then again, Windows 11 is known for being full of junk that slows it down. Will I go back to Windows 11? Not likely, especially with how slow Lenovo has been with updating the most important driver on this handheld, the graphics one. * ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ KDE_is_a_treasure_trove_of_free_games—here_are_the_5_best ones⠀⇛ KDE is best known for the Plasma Desktop, but it actually produces a huge number of different applications, including some truly fantastic ones like Kate, Krita, and KDE Connect. Most of the applications are designed to be functional or educational, but some of my recent favorites are entirely different: they're KDE's Games. These are some of the best I've found. ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠻⣿⢹⠏⠉⢡⢸⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠋⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣨⡥⡌⠀⢠⡕⡚⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⢸⣿⡟⢷⡴⠾⠁⠀⠙⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡯⣿⠀⠼⡦⣀⡀⣽⠇⣀⠀⠀⢰⡏⣿⣿⡟⢿⢟ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠋⠻⣿⢿⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⡇⢻⢉⣋⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⡆⢰⣾⣵⠀⠀⠰⠛⠋⠀⠀⣼⠀⢿⠟⢂⡟⠮ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⣥⡌⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠁⡀⠈⠩⠿⢿⡿⠿⣿⣿⡛⠩⠭⠁⠀⠀⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠇⠀⠁⠈⠰⢡⡓ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠛⠛⠃⠀⠀⢨⡇⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠇⣤⣤⣀⢐⠲⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣶⣄⣀⠀⠀⠀⠸⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠍ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⠇⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠛⠛⠛⠉⠉⠐⠒⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⣾⣛⣿⣿⠀⠊⠙⠛⠛⠛⠙⢻⣶⣟⣃⡉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠃ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠂⠀⢈⣉⠉⠤⠤⠒⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⡆⠈⠉⢀⣦⠀⠀⠀⡘⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⣄⣀⠀⢀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣽⣿⣿⣿⡄⡲⠀⠀⠀⠀⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⡟⢹⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠡⣤⡠⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⢼⣿⣿⣀⣴⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⢐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣷⠀⢱⠀⠀⠀⠀⣄⠈⠙⠒⠠⢄⣀⠀⢀⣀⣀⡀⠌⢀⣈⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠒⠀⠀⠀⠸⠿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⠉⠐⢂⣢⣬⣕⡂⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠅⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⢰⢸⠀⠀⢤⣼⣇⠀⠀⠀⢠⣤⣤⠭⠐⠒⠯⢀⡀⠀⣞⣿⣷⣖⣭⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠈⠉⣿⣮⣿⡆⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢬⣿⠃⠀⠀⠈⠉⠒⠤⣀⠀⣿⡥⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠚⠛⠿⠿⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠛⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠨⠽⡿⠛⠁⠀⣸⣃⠘⠋⢁⣀⣤⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⢾⣇⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠠⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢤⠀⠀⡤⠘⣿⣷⡽⠛⣉⣡⠤⠖⠊⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣮⡛⢷⣶⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⢿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠁⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠂⠉⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⢠⣤⣶⢀⡦⠚⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠘⠿⠟⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣷⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠔⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠈⡙⡏⠉⠢⣤⣤⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣴⣾⣶⣶⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⡠ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⡀⠀⠀⢠⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⢨⠰⣢⣤⣅⣀⣠⣤⣾⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡠⠀⣄⣠⣄⠀⠀⠋⠙⠒⢄⡀⠘⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⡿⠋ ⠀⠀⠀⣠⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⠛⠛⢦⡀⠀⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢤⠰⠂⠋⠀⠀⠰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠋⠁⠀⠀⡙⠻⠀⠀⠀⣄⢤⣥⣶⠯⣛⣥⢾⡿⣶⣄⡀⠀⠀⠈⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⣾⡿⠋⠀⠀ ⠀⣠⣶⣿⡟⢻⠿⣟⣀⠋⣁⣀⠀⠀⠃⠀⢇⡀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣁⠠⠄⡃⠤⠞⢂⣅⠲⣋⢵⠚⡉⢴⢘⠛⡂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣤⣾⡿⡿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣼⡿⠟⠿⡟⠃⠚⠉⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢙⢿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⢀⢠⡔⠓⣨⡔⠀⡉⠠⠈⠁⣠⠴⠂⠐⠓⣉⣴⠌⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣶⣾⣿⣿⡿⡫⠊⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⡇⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠩⠉⠉⣀⣴⢮⡙⢤⡄⢓⠠⡤⠛⠁⡀⠄⠛⠙⢿⣷⣶⣿⡦⠁⠀⠀⢀⣠⣤⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡻⠊⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠑⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢴⡄⣀⢤⣶⢛⡃⢴⡌⣛⡰⠦⢙⡁⢦⠈⣃⣤⡾⢊⣑⡿⡿⠟⠉⠀⠀⠀⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⡵⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣴⣟⣛⡡⣶⠜⣋⠰⡶⢉⡁⢶⠌⣋⡐⠦⢈⡁⠶⠆⢁⣤⡞⠀⠀⢠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢟⡵⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢴⣶⣶⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⡴⢿⠇⡉⣵⣯⢛⡋⢶⡦⣙⠱⣦⠙⣋⠰⡦⠈⣡⣄⠙⠋⣠⣾⣾⣿⠿⢀⣔⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢋⣴⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠤⢤⡤⡤⣤⣤⠀ ⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⢾⡟⠙⠛⠃⠀⠀⢀⡠⣴⡯⠙⣩⣦⠻⠟⢬⣦⡙⠛⣴⣌⠛⡃⢴⡎⢙⣥⣾⣷⡌⣁⣴⣿⣿⠿⠋⢁⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⢋⣴⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⣾⣷⣷⣿⡁⣵ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1772 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/GNU_Linux_Distributions_and_Operating_Systems.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/GNU_Linux_Distributions_and_Operating_Systems.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ GNU/Linux Distributions and Operating Systems⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Apr 14, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇handheld⦈_ * § Kernel Space / File Systems / Virtualization⠀➾ o ⚓ XDA ☛ AMD's_handheld_driver_support_is_so_bad_that_Linux_is starting_to_look_like_the_better_choice⠀⇛ Most PC gaming handhelds are powered by AMD chips, for a variety of reasons, but the biggest is that AMD's semi- custom fabs will whip up the processor you need for the right price.

It offers full layer-based editing, layer masks, non- destructive adjustment layers, PSD file support, and CMYK color management with ICC profile support.

It was more of a slow, mutual drifting apart. The kind where nothing is technically wrong, but everything feels just a little bit off. Like you’re replying “haha yeah” to messages you don’t care about anymore. Because that’s the thing. GNOME wasn’t broken. It booted fine, apps opened, and nothing exploded. And still, every day, there was this low-level friction. Tiny pauses. Weird decisions. Moments where I had to stop mid-flow and go, why am I doing this again? That question showed up way too often. So I did what any completely reasonable Linux user does. I tore out my desktop environment and replaced it. Not with KDE. Not with XFCE. Not with some tiling setup that turns your keyboard into a flight simulator.

At the time, gaming on Linux was down to either if the developer explicitly coded a Linux-compatible version or if Wine liked it. It felt like way too much hassle to game on Linux when Windows was right there. However, ever since Valve began working on Proton in 2018, things began to shift a little. Eventually, gaming on Linux was no longer a joke; it was a possibility, and it was still developing. Now, we're seeing CachyOS begin to catch up with the likes of Windows 11, offering people similiar, if not superior in-game experiences to Microsoft's OS. If things continue, we may see a major upset to the decade-old advice that gaming machines should run Windows. * ⚓ XDA ☛ I_switched_to_Linux_for_unconventional_reasons,_and_now_I_can't go_back⠀⇛ I’ve been a fan of the Linux ecosystem ever since I got a taste of it with the Raspberry Pi OS (or Buster, as it was called back then) on my RPi Zero ages ago. Since then, it has been a fun journey involving distro-hopping shenanigans and virtualization experiments. But unlike most folks, my reasons for going down the slippery slope of Linux flavors were more than just dissatisfaction with Windows and a desire to bring old devices back to life with light distros. Looking back, I transitioned to Linux and its FOSS tools for some wacky reasons. * ⚓ XDA ☛ This_lightweight_Linux_distro_is_what_old_hardware_has_been waiting_for⠀⇛ There’s a certain kind of older PC that never really gets a dignified ending. It still powers on, the keyboard still feels fine, and the screen still has some life left in it, but modern operating systems start treating it like dead weight. Every update adds a little more drag. Every background service feels like one more thing the machine didn’t ask for. At some point, the hardware itself isn’t the problem. It’s the software piled on top of it. That’s why Void Linux feels like such a surprise when you try it on aging hardware. It doesn’t have the name recognition of Ubuntu, Fedora, or Linux Mint, and honestly, that’s part of the appeal. Void has its own package manager, uses runit instead of systemd, and offers both glibc and musl variants, all of which help make a distro that feels leaner than many mainstream options. On an older laptop or desktop, that difference doesn’t stay abstract for very long. You feel it almost immediately when the machine starts acting useful again. * ⚓ XDA ☛ I_ran_Windows_11_and_Linux_side_by_side_for_a_year,_and_a_clear winner_emerged_for_productivity⠀⇛ Windows 11 may be the most popular desktop operating system in the world right now, but that doesn't mean it's the only option, or even the best one. In the past year or so, I've been using Linux on one of my laptops while also keeping Windows on another, and using each one as needed. Ultimately, though, when it comes to productivity and getting work done, I'm always choosing Linux whenever I can. The difference may not always be evident to everyone, but to me, it's an easy choice. ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠉⠉⠉⠉⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠋⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⣉⢉⣉⡉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣶⡶⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⡇⠀⠀⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⣷⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣾⠟⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⢀⣀⢀⣀⣀⡀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠃⠁⠘⠉⠛⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⣾⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠄⠀⠀⠠⠄⠠⢀⡄⡀⠀⠀⡄⣠⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠼⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⣿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠘⠉⠉⢠⣥⣬⣤⣧⡅⡀⣀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠦⣤⣤⢠⡄⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⡿⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⡶⣶⠖⠒⠀⠀⠀⠩⢤⡿⠤⠤⠤⠀⠀⠼⣿⣿⡿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠷⡦⠶⠶⢶⡀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣴⡿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⠻⠛⠉⠉⠁⠀⢰⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⢇⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⢀⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⡀⢀⠀⠀⠀⣾⡿⠋⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⣭⣛⣒⡐⠀⠀⠀⠨⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⢹⣿⣶⣾⣿⣶⣤⣤⣘⠒⠶⢷⣶⣶⣶⣴⣶⠆⡸⢂⣞⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣷⣷⣿⣾⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣾⣶⣾⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣶⣶⣷⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠇⠀⠀⠀⠰⣿⣿⡿⠶⠶⠶⠄⠌⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠘⣿⡟⠻⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣄⣉⡔⠂⢩⣑⣛⠃⣴⣷⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡧⣭⣁⣉⠓⠀⠀⠀⠒⠒⠖⣻⡿⣿⣆⣴⣿⣧⣤⣄⣀⡀⠀⠉⠉⠹⠻⡿⠾⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⡛⢛⣿⣿⠉⠙⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⣶⡖⡒⠒⠂⠀⠀⠨⠭⣿⣏⣿⣷⡽⠇⣿⣿⣿⣟⣛⣿⣿⠿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣦⣤⣀⣀⣈⠉⠛⠛⠻⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠛⢛⡋⡭⢤⣤⣶⣿⣿⣟⢧⣘⣿⣦⣶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠰⢿⣿⣿⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⠚⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣞⠻⣭⣭⣿⣛⣛⣿⠶⠶⣶⣤⣤⣌⣉⣉⠛⠛⠿⠿⢿⣑⣰⣾⣿⣿⣿⣾⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣤⣤⣤ ⠠⣶⣶⣶⢘⠛⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠩⠝⠿⠛⢟⣿⡛⣻⡿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣷⣶⣶⣿⣽⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠈⠉⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠚⠁⠒⠁⠙⠉⠉⣿⡟⠋⠛⠙⠫⠹⠿⣿⠽⠋⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⡇⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⡇⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠷⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣶⣶⡖⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⡅⢀⣀⣠⣤⣤⣾⣷⣶⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣠⣤⣴⣶⠶⠾⣿⢛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠉⠻⣀⣀⣓⣿⡿⠙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣻⠟⠻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠙⢷⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⠾⠿⠛⠋⠉⣿⣁⠀⠀⠐⠒⢻⠉⠘⠛⠻⠿⣿⣿⡷⠶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣦⣤⡒⠻⠿⠙⠛⠛⠻⠿⠿⣿⡟⣯⣽⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠹⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⠶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⣠⣤⠴⠄⠒⠁⣿⠀⠀⠀⠈⠑⣿⣿⠄⠀⠉⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣶⣦⣤⣀⠴⠾⢿⠀⡿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣦⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠛⣻⣿⠟⠛⠋⠁⠀⠒⠁⠄⠀⠿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢤⣾⣿⣿⣷⣀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣫⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣮⣍⠒⢾⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠛⠛⠛⠛⠻⠿⠿⠿⠿⠶⠶⢶⣶⣶⡤⣾⣷⠝⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⠀⠀⠁⠉⢹⣿⠁⠉⠙⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠻⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⠿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣤⡾⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⡿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⠿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠴⠟⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⡀⠀⡀⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⣻⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣦⡀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠙⠁⠙⠃⠛⠃⠘⢽⣿⠇⢸⣿⠰⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣦ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠀⡀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2199 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/Google_Drive_is_disappearing_from_Ubuntu_s_file_manager_and_it_.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/Google_Drive_is_disappearing_from_Ubuntu_s_file_manager_and_it_.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Google Drive is disappearing from Ubuntu's file manager, and it's a bigger deal than you think⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Apr 14, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇laptop⦈_ Quoting: Google Drive is disappearing from Ubuntu's file manager, and it's a bigger deal than you think — In case you missed it, people have been checking out Ubuntu 26.04.

Among the best-known desktop environments, GNOME and KDE Plasma stand out, with KDE generally offering more built-in features such as stronger HDR and tearing support in many setups. Like many newcomers to the world of Linux, I initially started my journey with Fedora, which has the GNOME desktop environment by default. And like most, I was perfectly fine with its many quirks and specific workflow — that is, until I switched over to KDE Plasma for the first time ever. It was an eye-opening experience, and one that eventually led me on my journey to discover the various alternative Linux desktops on offer, but I seem to keep coming back to KDE for some odd reason. Be it a simpler setup process, or the fact that it just works, the Plasma desktop deserves all the praise it gets, and is something I would recommend without hesitation to most folks.

The WiFi connection is, of course, thanks to the whole thing running on an ESP32-S3. Mac Plus emulation comes from [evansm7]’s Micro Mac emulator, the same one that lives inside the RP2040-based PicoMac that we covered some time ago. Obviously [likeablob] has added his own code to get the Macintosh emulator talking to the ESP32’s wireless hardware, with a native application to control the wifi connection in System 3.3. As far as the Macintosh is concerned, commands are passed to the ESP32 via memory address 0xF00000, and data can be read back from it as well. It’s a straightforward approach to allow intercommunication between the emulator and the real world. o ⚓ Vidit Bhargava ☛ Young_people_crave_uni-taskers_and_it's_not_that deep⠀⇛ They also see its benefits. It's not got apps, services, notifications, etc. so they can listen to the music they like in peace. After all, dedicated hardware will always be better at certain things than general purpose hardware. So the iPod is coming back. This is what happens when you raise a generation on nothing but touch screens. They get tired of them. They see the negatives more clearly than those who invented them. * § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ 3D-Printed_Parts_Nearly_Sink_RC_Submarine⠀⇛ Before building the full version, [James] made a test prototype. These submarines use large syringes as ballast tanks, pulling water in and out of the submarine body. The plungers are driven by a lead screw, and have a linear potentiometer for feedback. This can be wired in the same way as a servo motor, making it compatible with the RC controller. The controller receives its signal from an antenna in a buoy tethered to the submarine. Since initial tests worked well, [James] moved on to the full-scale model. o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Reverse-Engineering_An_Amazon_Blink_Gen_3_Camera⠀⇛ As for why this outdoors-rated camera failed after a few years in the outdoors, the reason appears to be water intrusion via the speaker opening. As for why a camera needs a speaker and not just the microphone is left as an exercise to the reader, but maybe it could be useful for yelling at the local kids to get off your darn lawn? o ⚓ BoingBoing ☛ John_Deere_settles_right-to-repair_lawsuit_for_$99 million⠀⇛ The settlement builds on a 2023 memorandum of understanding Deere signed with the American Farm Bureau, which gave third parties limited diagnostic access. That agreement was voluntary. This one is legally binding. o ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ I_turned_my_potato_PC_into_a_$0_homelab_in_45 minutes—and_I_didn't_even_use_the_terminal⠀⇛ Building a homelab might sound like the kind of project that requires a big budget or an entire weekend, but it doesn’t have to. Any old PC or laptop collecting dust at home can be repurposed into a surprisingly capable homelab. With the right tools, the setup can be quick and beginner-friendly. Here’s how I turned my spare computer into a fully functional homelab for $0 in under an hour. For context, the machine I’m using is fairly modest—an AMD Ryzen 3 2200G (released in February 2018), paired with 16GB of DDR4 RAM, a 250GB SATA SSD, a 500GB HDD, and a 100Mbps Ethernet connection. If this setup can handle a homelab, yours probably can too. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2506 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/Manchester_Sun_and_Manchester_City.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/Manchester_Sun_and_Manchester_City.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Manchester Sun and Manchester City⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Apr 14, 2026, updated Apr 14, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇A_Toast_to_Tux_Machines⦈_ After many (semi-)sunny days or consecutive days with sunny spells today we had mostly clouds and tomorrow it will rain_again.

This is our first crates.io_release of the servo crate that allows Servo to be used as a library. We currently do not have any plans of publishing our demo browser servoshell to crates.io. In the 5 releases since our initial Microsoft's proprietary prison GitHub release in October 2025, our release process has matured, with the main “bottleneck” now being the human-written monthly blog post. Since we’re quite excited about this release, we decided to not wait for the monthly blog post to be finished, but promise to deliver the monthly update in the coming weeks. * ⚓ LWN ☛ Servo_now_on_crates.io⠀⇛ The Servo project has announced the first release of servo as a crate for use as a library. * ⚓ Spidermonkey_Development_Blog:_Benchmark_Mode_in_SpiderMonkey⠀⇛ You ever get to the end of running benchmarks, maybe a long running one, and realize… “Oh no.

The system provides desktop-class performance in a compact metal chassis and supports continuous operation. The platform supports defective chip maker Intel Core Ultra 200 processors (Arrow Lake-S) using the LGA1851 socket, with a maximum TDP of 65 W. o ⚓ FPS Review ☛ Valve_Engineer_Further_Optimizes_Linux_for_GPUs_with 8GB_or_Less,_Showing_Impressive_FPS_Gains⠀⇛ Valve Linux Engineer Natalie Vock has developed new optimizations for GPU memory management, leading to notable FPS gains. Graphics card prices have been anything but normal due to the ongoing NAND/DRAM shortages, not to mention that all three GPU manufacturers have, for the time being, abandoned the consumer market in favor of the AI pot of gold, so folks looking for budget-friendly alternatives are often left with cards featuring 8GB VRAM or less. At one point, many questioned the relevance of purchasing such cards in 2025-2026, but recent reviews, including the one we have here, have shown that modern GPUs can still be used for gaming. Furthermore, engineers such as Vock are finding ways to fine-tune drivers to improve memory management, thereby unlocking further untapped potential in these budget cards. o ⚓ PC World ☛ A_Valve_engineer’s_Linux_patch_makes_8GB_AMD_GPUs better_at_gaming⠀⇛ o ⚓ Valve_Engineer_Improves_Linux_Memory_Management_for_GPUs_with_8 GB_VRAM_or_Less⠀⇛ Valve's Linux developer, Natalie Vock, has introduced a new method for handling memory management on GPUs with 8 GB or less VRAM. Since a large part of the gaming community uses systems with limited resources, improving performance and VRAM allocation is an excellent way to maximize frames per second. According to Vock's solution, GPUs with 8 GB of VRAM or less on Linux will now benefit from better background VRAM management, allowing more free space for games. Several Linux kernel patches have been submitted to guide how Linux manages resources when a game is loaded. Previously, when a game used too much VRAM on a low-VRAM GPU, the Linux Graphics Translation Table (GTT) would move data to system RAM to prevent the game from crashing. Since Linux doesn't prioritize programs, it could sometimes move the actual game from VRAM to system RAM to make space for something like a browser or another third-party app. o ⚓ PC Gamer ☛ A_Valve_developer_has_just_made_it_easier_to_run_games on_Linux_with_8_GB_cards_thanks_to_a_simple_fix⠀⇛ Natalie Vock, a Linux developer for Valve, has recently taken to their GitHub with a simple fix allowing rigs with less VRAM to run games better. Turns out applications in Linux will hog all the resources they can get, though if you have an Arch-based distro with an 8 GB card, things are about to get better for you. To put it simply, you will need to get "some kernel patches as well as additional utilities to make use of the kernel capabilities properly." Vock recommends using the Arch-based CachyOS and installing the packages "dmemcg-booster" and "plasma-foreground-booster." From here, your games should start to run better on graphics cards with 8 GB of VRAM. * § Mobile Systems/Mobile Applications⠀➾ o ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ Modern_phones_are_locked_down,_but_this_legendary HTC_ran_every_operating_system_imaginable_(even_Ubuntu)⠀⇛ When you pick out a phone, you’re also picking out the operating system—that typically means Android or iOS. What if a phone didn’t follow those rules? What if it could run any OS you wanted?

Reading the spec, the “common” turns out to mean common across build systems rather than common across language ecosystems: it’s a JSON format that CMake and Meson and autotools can all read to find out where an installed library lives and how to link against it, replacing the mix of .pc files and *Config.cmake scripts that currently fill that role. * ⚓ Alex Gaynor ☛ If_it_could_have,_why_didn't_it?⠀⇛ However, focusing on the strongest version of the claim, we still have a pair of problems: false positives and sensitivity. * ⚓ MaskRay ☛ Recent_lld/ELF_performance_improvements⠀⇛ Since the LLVM 22 branch was cut, I've landed patches that parallelize more link phases and cut task-runtime overhead. This post compares current main against lld 22.1, mold, and wild. Headline: a Release+Asserts clang --gc-sections link is 1.37x as fast as lld 22.1; Chromium debug with --gdb-index is 1.07x as fast. mold and wild are still ahead — the last section explains why. * ⚓ 00f ☛ Configuration_flags_are_where_software_goes_to_rot⠀⇛ People love configurable software. They say flexibility is always good. More flags, more knobs, more environment variables, more ways to make the software fit every possible use case. But in practice, configuration flags are often just a polite way to ship uncertainty. * ⚓ Bryan Cantrill ☛ The_peril_of_laziness_lost⠀⇛ Ideally, you would want those that benefit from abstractions to pay the virtue of laziness forward — to use their new-found power to themselves labor on the abstractions they make. But a consequence of the broadening of software creation over the past two decades is it includes more and more people who are unlikely to call themselves programmers — and for whom the virtue of laziness would lose its intended meaning. Worse, the extraordinary productivity allowed by modern abstractions has given rise to an emphasis on a kind of false industriousness. Pejoratively, this was the rise of the brogrammer, with the virtue of ironic laziness and hammock- driven development displaced by hustle porn about crushing code. * ⚓ Jan Skriver Sørensen ☛ Error_banner_in_shell⠀⇛ Then pop the stash and/or do the fast and furious writing thing. Much later I would discover that I had forgotten the - c option to actually create a new branch, realizing I just messed up another unrelated branch 🤦 Obviously I need something to bring the error exit more to my attention, so I cooked up this little attention functionality * § Shell/Bash/Zsh/Ksh⠀➾ o ⚓ Christian Hofstede-Kuhn ☛ Replacing_Lenovo’s_WWAN_Unlock_Blob with_a_100-Line_Bash_Script⠀⇛ My Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 4 (AMD Ryzen) shipped with an Intel XMM7560 LTE Advanced Pro modem soldered to the mainboard. Useful little thing: real LTE on the go, no tethering dance, no MiFi puck in the bag. The catch: out of the box, the modem refuses to register on the network. ModemManager dutifully detects it, the SIM is recognised, but on my machine AT+CFUN=1 would come back OK while the radio quietly stayed dark. The reason is something called FCC lock, and the official fix from Lenovo is a package of proprietary helpers and shared libraries. I replaced Lenovo’s proprietary helper with a bash script that performs the same handshake in clear, auditable shell. Here is the why, the how, and the script. o ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ These_8_useful_Bash_patterns_are_hiding_in_real projects—here's_how_to_use_them⠀⇛ Shell scripting is full of secrets and hidden tricks, so it pays to have a few patterns up your sleeve. For inspiration, try these scripts from real projects, including Homebrew, BashBlog, and nvm. By learning from these examples, you can improve your own shell scripts and master new techniques. * § Rust⠀➾ o ⚓ Tony_Asleson:_Rustbucket⠀⇛ Sorting a terabyte of data in the late 1990s meant serious hardware, serious planning, and probably a serious budget approval process. Today you can do it on a workstation before lunch. I wanted to know how fast, so I wrote rustbucket to find out. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀ ⠀⠀⠄⢀⠀⣤⣤⣄⢠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣤⠄⠄⠀⠀⠀⢀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⣁⢈⡁⡐⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⣂⣰⣾⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⡶⠒⠪⠀⢢⢧⢶⣷⣆⣆⣭⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⠶⣶⡶⠒⠒⠀⠐⠖⢒⠾⣯⣮⣴⣶⣬⣅⣆⣀⣤⣐⣲⣤⣭⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶ ⠀⡅⢺⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠄⠀⠐⠡⠓⠒⠚⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠒⠛⠝⠛⢓⠠⠀⠀⠄⠀⠀⠘⠚⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣀⢀⣀⣠⠤⣄⣄⡀⢀⠠⠀⢄⣀⣀⢤⢤⡀⠠⡜⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⢀⡠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣶⣷⣾⣶⣶⣾⣶⣶⣦⣤⣤⣤⣤⣄⣀⣰⣶⣶⣮⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢲⠙⠋⠉⠛⠛⠀⠈⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠣⣥⡋⠛⠓⠂⠉⠉⠉⠙⠃⠀⢉⠀⠁⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠐⠒⠋⠿⠋⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠙⠀⠀⠐⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⢀⠀⢤⡥⣛⣛⣉⣉⣉⢀⡠⢀⣀⠄⠀⢀⠀⣀⡤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢠⢀⣀⡠⠀⠠⠀⠀⠠⢈⠯⡭⠥⡨⢈⡾⢿⠭⣴⠭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣷⣶⣷⣷⡠⢄⠤⣄⡤⣄⣠⡀⢀⡀⣀⣠⣀⡤⣀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣮⣴⣬⣼⣬⣮⣴⣬⣷⣮⣧⣶⣦⣬⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⣽ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣤⣀⣶⣦⣤⣤⣴⣤⣽ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 3120 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/Proprietary_Microsoft_Putting_Off_People.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/Proprietary_Microsoft_Putting_Off_People.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Proprietary Microsoft Putting Off People⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Apr 14, 2026 * ⚓ XDA ☛ Microsoft_finally_admitted_Windows_11_was_broken,_but_I've already_moved_on⠀⇛ Recently, in a unexpected yet long overdue move, Microsoft announced its plans to undergo major changes in Windows 11 in order to regain user trust and deliver the experience fans have been asking for.

For example, code must be compatible with GPL-2.0-only and it must include proper SPDX identifiers. More importantly, though, while AI assistants like Microsoft Copilot may be accepted in the development process, human developers ultimately remain responsible for the output, reviewing code, ensuring licence compliance and taking full accountability (as before). * ⚓ Extreme Tech ☛ Linux_Kernel_Will_Accommodate_AI-Assisted_Code,_But Humans_Are_Still_Liable⠀⇛ * ⚓ Dolphin Publications B V ☛ Rust_enters_the_Linux_kernel,_but_its adoption_is_leveling_off⠀⇛ A milestone for Rust: version 7.0 of the Linux kernel has been released with official support for the programming language.

The Robot Operating System (ROS) — which we covered on this site back in 2011 when it was a scrappy open-source project — is now the global standard for robot development. ROS 2, its mature successor, runs on Linux and provides the middleware that connects sensors, actuators, AI models, and control systems. Nearly every serious robotics company on Earth uses it. Unitree’s humanoids? ROS-compatible. Boston Dynamics’ Atlas? Built on Linux. Figure AI’s warehouse bots working at BMW? Linux. Amazon’s Digit robots? Linux. The entire humanoid robotics industry is standing on open-source shoulders. Why Linux? The same reasons it won everywhere else: it’s free, customizable to the extreme, has the best real-time kernel support, runs on anything from a Raspberry Pi to a GPU cluster, and doesn’t require paying Microsoft a licensing fee for every robot you build. When you’re manufacturing 10,000 humanoids, that last point alone saves you a small fortune.

BSD, being UNIX, was held back by legal wrangling in the aftermath of the wars, and that allowed Linux to pull ahead to a pole position it still enjoys to this day. BSD has its following, of course, but Hurd? GNU Hurd seemed destined to languish… until April 1st, 2026, when the Gentoo Linux distribution was ported to the Free Software Foundation’s kernel. It turns out, they weren’t actually joking. The joke part was that they were moving fully to the Hurd kernel, away from Linux– you can absolutely still run Gentoo with the Linux kernel, and make no mistake, that’s still the default and best-supported option. Options are good, though, and the Gentoo team has decided that it’s time to add some options to the kernel space, and give the Hurd some time in the sun. Unlike the Linux kernel, which follows closely the monolithic UNIX framework– and the BSD-Unix kernel, which is Unix–GNU Hurd is a microkernel architecture, based originally on the Mach kernel. In that, it’s rather like MacOS. Unlike MacOS, given its roots in the Free Software Foundation, GNU Hurd is 100% free and open source. There are advantages to a microkernel architecture– it keeps drivers out of kernel space so a dodgy WiFi adapter can’t crash your system, for example– but the big disadvantage is, of course, drivers. Both Linux and BSD drivers can be ported, but that takes work and many of them have not been.

Ubuntu — Tributary is billed a “high-performance, Rhythmbox-style media manager written in pure Rust with GTK4 and libadwaita”. It’s more than a way to play local audio files, too. Tributary can access and stream music from Jellyfin, Plex, DAAP/iTunes shares, internet radio stations and Subsonic/Navidrome setups as well – all from a UI that looks uncannily like a real GTK4 Rhythmbox. Explaining his decision to create ‘yet another music player’ (no longer a historical meme either, as a glut of Amerbol-style GTK4/ libadwaita music apps have been clogging up code repos and subreddits of late, thanks to vibe coding) developer John-Michael Mulesa said: “I wanted something that still looked and acted like the old Rhymbox/ iTunes song library view, while maintaining DAAP library support and adding support for a few additional more modern remote backends.” Read_on ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣤⡄ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠛⠁ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣴⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣾⣷⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢏⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣓⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠹⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠓⠀⠙⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 4349 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/Waveshare_Built_a_149_Handheld_That_Runs_Full_Linux_Without_the.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/04/14/Waveshare_Built_a_149_Handheld_That_Runs_Full_Linux_Without_the.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Waveshare Built a $149 Handheld That Runs Full Linux Without the Laptop⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Apr 14, 2026 The handheld computer has always been a compelling idea that rarely lives up to its promise. Smartphones are too locked down for real development work, and tablets occupy an awkward middle ground between a phone and a laptop. Pocket PCs, mini notebooks, and DIY computer builds have all tried to fill the gap, but each one compromised too heavily on usability or demanded too much assembly. Waveshare’s PocketTerm35 takes a more deliberate approach, landing somewhere between a purpose-built tool and a proper portable computer. Compatible with the Raspberry Pi 4B and Pi 5, it wraps a complete Linux terminal experience into a handheld unit that’s ready to use right out of the box. Everything from the display and keyboard to the battery and connectivity is already integrated, so there’s nothing left to hunt down or assemble.

The code in XkbSetCompatMap() will use that space, but fails to update the number of valid entries actually in the buffer. Also fixed is CVE-2026-34000, an XKB out-of-bounds read in the CheckSetGeom() function. Each key alias entry contains two key names (the alias and the real key name). The code in CheckSetGeom() does its bounds checking using only the first name, allowing XkbAddGeomKeyAlias to read uninitialised memory.
