talked-about digital policy issues in recent memory. Premiers, the Liberal convention, and the media have all jumped on board. But has the debate been driven by misinformation, leading to a moral panic?

That’s very exciting to me on two fronts. The first is that it’s always been the promise of the web that anyone could publish and be heard, and baking in social functionality is a huge part of that. The second is that it undermines the stranglehold that traditional social media platforms have had on the public discourse and democracy itself. We need movements like these to grow.

But instead of innovating to remain the best database in the face of competition, former Ashton-Tate CEO Ed Esber decided to litigate. Lawsuits designed to protect “look and feel” copyrights had a massive, chilling effect on the dBase community1. Ashton-Tate targeted its own unsuspecting customers with “piracy audits”, and ask them to pay extra fees for licenses. External consultants were given sales quotas for official dBase consultant status - a predatory practice that was unthinkable in an era when software development cycles took years. dBase customers pushed back, asking the obvious questions: When is a Novell NetWare-compatible server coming? When are we getting a network-aware UNIX dBase server? Competitors answered. FoxBase released FoxPro UNIX server in 19932. Btrieve release their Novell-compatible servers in 19943. Public humiliation and years of harassment by rent-seeking vendors destroyed developer trust long before the bugs began piling up. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 616 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Debian_Freexian_Collaborators_Colin_Watson_and_Tails_Release.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Debian_Freexian_Collaborators_Colin_Watson_and_Tails_Release.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Debian: Freexian Collaborators, Colin Watson, and Tails Release⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 12, 2026 * ⚓ Freexian_Collaborators:_Debusine_workflow_performance_issues_(by_Colin Watson)⠀⇛ During March and April, we had a number of performance issues that made Debusine’s core functions of running work requests and reflecting their results in workflows quite unreliable.

This distribution provides access to the latest software as soon as it’s available upstream, which ensures that it’s up to date and secure. Fedora Hummingbird primarily utilizes an image-based workflow, similar to containers, but also runs in virtual machines and even on bare metal. If you’ve been following Project Hummingbird‘s work on container images, or Project Bluefin’s work on the operating system, you already know the model. Fedora Hummingbird applies this model all the way down to the host OS. The foundation for Fedora Hummingbird already ships today from the Hummingbird containers repository. You can pull and boot it right now.

In this series, I’ll put this mini PC through its paces from a Linux perspective, comparing it with other systems, including desktops, to show how it really stacks up. The Bosgame M7 is a recent addition to Bosgame’s wide range of mini PCs. This model is based on the Intel Core Ultra 9 285H processor with integrated Intel Arc 140T graphics. The processor has 16 cores and 16 threads with a CPU Mark of around 34,327. My machine came with 32GB of DDR5 5600MHz RAM and a 1TB PCIe 4.0 SSD, a configuration well-suited to heavy multitasking, development work, and media-rich workloads. For this article in the series, I’ve benchmarked the Bosgame M7 using a range of tests, most of them run with the Phoronix Test Suite. I’ve compared its results against eight other systems: the Bosgame M4 Plus, Bosgame M6, as well as a Ryzen 9 8945HS mini PC, a Core Ultra 7 255H mini PC, an Intel NUC 13 Pro with Core i7-1360P, an Intel N100 mini PC, and two desktop systems powered by Intel Core i5-10400 and Core i5-12400 processors. The Bosgame M6 has the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor, 12 cores / 24 threads, integrated AMD Radeon 890M graphics. The Bosgame M4 Plus has the AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS processor, 8 cores / 16 threads, integrated AMD Radeon 780M graphics.

It’s useful when you’re trying to track when a fix, feature, or regression landed in mainline history, especially in projects that use feature branches and merge commits. The tool follows the first-parent history of the target branch and reports the merge responsible for introducing the commit. It can also show the merge log, display diffs, inspect the branch that was merged, or follow intermediate merges recursively. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ advcpmv_-_patch_for_cp_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ advcpmv, also known as Advanced Copy, is a maintained patch set for Core Utilities that extends cp and mv with progress-aware transfer output.

This is free and open source software. * ⚓ git-fixup_-_command-line_helper_for_Git_users_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ git-fixup is a command-line helper for Git users who rely on interactive rebase and autosquash. It reduces the manual work involved in creating fixup, squash, or amend commits by inspecting the files and lines you’ve changed, using Git history to suggest the commits most likely to be the right target. Instead of searching through the commit log and copying a commit hash, you can stage the relevant changes, run git fixup, and select from a list of suggested commits. It also works as a convenient wrapper around Git’s own fixup support when you already know the target commit. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ Refurb_-_modernize_Python_codebases_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Refurb is a command-line utility that helps developers modernize Python codebases by identifying places where older or less idiomatic code can be replaced with clearer, more up-to- date Python constructs.

Full stop. I have to use it for work, like many of you, but it's just a mess to use. It's become a product that continues to treat us all like the thing being sold instead of the customer. There are ads in the Start menu, telemetry that's hard to disable, and an AI assistant we're still not asking for. Through it all, though, what keeps me using Microsoft's bloated OS is gaming. Even though I tend to think of myself as a console gamer, I have a pretty decent Steam library. For years, Linux (and macOS, which I truly prefer), just wasn't an option. * ⚓ Godot Engine ☛ Dev_snapshot:_Godot_4.7_beta_2⠀⇛ Second verse, same as the first! * ⚓ Boiling Steam ☛ New_Steam_Games_Playable_on_the_Steam_Deck,_with Alabaster_Dawn_and_Dead_as_Disco_-_2026-05-09_Edition⠀⇛ Between 2026-05-02 and 2026-05-09 we selected 21 newly released games that are rated as Verified or Playable on the Steam Deck, and meeting specific criteria in terms of user ratings. It’s another exceptional week for the Steam Deck with a bunch of very strong releases. It’s difficult to pick just a few, but you should clearly keep an eye on ALABASTER DAWN (I played it last year at the Bit Summit and it was great!) - Dead as Disco seems to be a great musical beat’em up (that’s a genre now), very well received after release. Here’s the whole list of little gems below. * ⚓ Jamie Zawinski ☛ Operation_Epic_Furious⠀⇛ A plaque next to the machines states: "The Trump administration knows that the best way to sell combat is by making it a video game, that's why they've been pumping out the 'sickest' Iran War video game hype reels. But why stop at clips when you could go full throttle? Introducing Operation Epic Furious: Strait to Hell, a high-octane, flag-waving, boots-on-the-ground simulator where freedom isn't debated, it's deployed. No briefings, no hesitation; just pure pixelated patriotism. Strap in and play hard, because this game may never end." * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Previously_console-exclusive,_Return_to_Castle Wolfenstein:_Cursed_Sands_is_finally_on_PC_|_GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Cursed Sands is a prologue to Return to Castle Wolfenstein, previously exclusive to consoles and now available on PC. One for fans of the true classics here. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Crazy_action_game_Killer_Bean_confirmed_for_launch_on June_8_|_GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ Killer Bean is an upcoming open world crazy action game that looks ridiculously over the top, and it finally has a date to arrive on June 8th. It will be in Early Access so it's not a finished game but plenty of content will be there for release. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Get_some_great_bullet_heaven_survivor-likes_in_the Heavenly_Bullets_Humble_Bundle_|_GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ Get some quality gaming if you're a fan of the bullet heaven / survivor-like genre - there's some not to be missed in the Heavenly Bullets Humble Bundle. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Dusk_is_a_reverse-engineered_reimplementation_of_The Legend_of_Zelda:_Twilight_Princess_|_GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess comes to PC thanks to a new open source reverse-engineered reimplementation called Dusk. Not to be confused with the popular retro FPS, this is an entirely different type of Dusk. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Some_fun_VR_game_announcements_from_the_Creature Feature_2026_event_|_GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ Including the likes of Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades 2 - here's some VR games to stock up on for the upcoming Steam Frame from Valve. The Creature Feature 2026 event happened recently with some fresh announcements, release dates, trailers and more. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ The_Jackbox_Party_Pack_12_announced_for_release_later this_year_|_GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ Arriving sometime this "Fall 2026", The Jackbox Party Pack 12 will be bringing more silly party games to play with your friends. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ SteamOS_3.7.24_released_along_with_a_stable_Steam Client_update_with_more_Steam_Controller_fixes_|_GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ Valve released another stable update SteamOS 3.7.24, along with a stable Steam Client update for everyone with Steam Controller fixes.

It did one thing, which is a good number of things for a desktop utility to do. * ⚓ GNOME ☛ Michael_Catanzaro:_Flatpak_Sandbox_Escape_via_Yelp⠀⇛ Yelp 49.1 fixes a significant Flatpak_sandbox_escape related to last_year’s_CVE-2025-3155. CVE assignment for this new issue is currently pending. This is not a bug in Flatpak. Flatpak allows sandboxed applications to open URIs or files, meaning the sandboxed application may use a URI or file path to launch another application to open the URI or file. This is brokered via the OpenURI portal. The portal or the app may decide to require user interaction to decide which app to launch, but user interaction is generally not required. This is necessary: you would get pretty frustrated if you were prompted to select which app to use every time you click on a link or try to open something! Accordingly, unsandboxed applications that are installed on the host system are somewhat risky: any malicious sandboxed app may launch an unsandboxed app using a malicious file, generally with no user interaction required. Unsandboxed applications installed on the host OS are inherently part of the attack surface of the Flatpak sandbox. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1360 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/GNU_and_Software_Freedom_Digital_Sovereignty_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/GNU_and_Software_Freedom_Digital_Sovereignty_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ GNU and Software Freedom / Digital Sovereignty Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 12, 2026 * ⚓ Sacha Chua ☛ 2026-05-11_Emacs_news⠀⇛ People are getting Emacs 31 ready for release.

Today, I'm announcing version 3.8. Before you download it, let's be clear about what this is: this is the historical implementation from BSD UNIX. It contains the original source code, not a clone or reimplementation.

Either use my rootless-deboostrap-wrapper script or the command I documented in LLVM's cross- compilation instructions, being sure to see the note on working around a Ninja dependency issue. For a bootable QEMU image, Debian-based recipes are similarly straightforward. But we don't have the luxury of a precompiled distribution for 32-bit RISC-V and so we'll lean on Yocto to produce the needed sysroot by building from source. I cover three cases: 1) building a sysroot for cross- compiling projects like LLVM, 2) doing the same but in a way that requires fewer build steps, 3) building an image approximating my debootstrap image recipes. In this article I use release 5.3 ('Whinlatter'), which introduced the bitbake-setup helper tool. For documentation, I found the Yocto quick build guide, and bitbake-setup docs, and image customisation guide helpful. # ⚓ HaikuOS ☛ Haiku_Activity_&_Contract_Report,_April_2026⠀⇛ This report covers hrev59570 through hrev59671.

When did we all just sort of accept this as the de facto standard, even if touchscreens in cars suck? How much money do car manufacturers really save by centralising as much as possible into a single screen that tends to look the same across different brands and different models? How important is it for their sales and marketing departments to be able to highlight the fact that their cars are able to display the same familiar icons as the phones of their customers? ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1544 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/GStreamer_1_28_3_Adds_NXP_i_MX_8M_Plus_Hardware_Accelerated_H_2.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/GStreamer_1_28_3_Adds_NXP_i_MX_8M_Plus_Hardware_Accelerated_H_2.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ GStreamer 1.28.3 Adds NXP i.MX 8M Plus Hardware-Accelerated H.265 Encoding⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Marius Nestor on May 12, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇GStreamer⦈_ Coming about a month after GStreamer 1.28.2, the GStreamer 1.28.3 release introduces hardware-accelerated H.265 encoding support for the NXP i.MX 8M Plus processor to the webrtcsink element, a leaky mode to dataqueue-based elements, fallback-source and enable-dummy properties to the fallbacksrc element, and GBRA swizzle support to OpenGL.

improving performance for NVIDIA GPU users who experience issues introduced by the NVIDIA 595 graphics driver, and improving the login and lock screen experience by addressing a Plasma Login Manager crash when connecting and disconnecting multiple monitors and a startup failure when using certain graphics hardware. In addition, it fixes a KWin crash on logout when the closed session sent an emulated keyboard or mouse event, as well as a screen locker issue that could cause the buttons to malfunction, preventing you from unlocking the screen after you pressed the Esc key in combination with various other actions with specific timings.

They number in the thousands, and range from the very easy to the incredibly complicated. Clearly, if you're new to Linux, you're going to want to start with something that can painlessly introduce you to the open-source operating system. Every Linux user has an opinion on which distribution is best suited for new users, but I would argue that the choice depends on where you're coming from. I want to address two different distributions that make sense for users coming from either MacOS or Windows. Those who are new to Linux probably don't want to migrate to an operating system that looks nothing like what they are used to. Ergo: elementary OS and Linux Mint. Let's see which one is right for you.

When ZFS was introduced over two decades ago, it rewrote the rulebook for data integrity, scalability, and storage pool management. Yet, for all its innovations, one capability consistently lagged expectations: deduplication at scale. Deduplication, the process of identifying and eliminating extraneous copies of data, is not novel. It has been a staple of backup appliances and storage systems since the 90s. The original ZFS implementation, while functionally correct, was often impractical in real-world enterprise environments due to the performance and memory overheads. The amount of memory required was unpredictable, and if it exceeded the available memory, most write operations would be bottlenecked waiting for random reads from the dedup table, dropping performance off an unexpected cliff. That all changed through a focused collaboration between Klara and TrueNAS, resulting in what the community now calls ZFS Fast Dedup. * ⚓ Mariusz Zaborski ☛ Teaching_ZFS_about_time⠀⇛ ZFS is a robust file system, in large part thanks to its copy- on-write design. Problems can still show up: flaky cables, dying drives, or the occasional cosmic ray flipping a bit. For exactly those situations ZFS has a feature called scrub. Scrub walks every used block starting from the uberblock and compares the stored checksum against the data on disk. The catch is that scrubs are expensive, especially when the pool holds petabytes. An admin who hit a power-supply problem or a sudden shutdown usually wants to scrub the data written around that event, not the entire pool. That is the goal here: teach ZFS something about wall-clock time. Internally, ZFS only thinks in transaction group (TXG) numbers. Administrators, inconveniently, think in dates. A TXG is just a uint64_t that goes up with every transaction, and there has never been a clean way to map between the two. * ⚓ Dan Langille ☛ newsyslog_–_telling_it_not_to_compress,_for_anything⠀⇛ In the above situation, ZFS is compressing the data on-the-fly. Then newsylog comes along and decompresses it at the file- contents level. ZFS then can’t do much about compressing the already-compressed data. A goal: don’t do that. Just let ZFS compress the data. It will be much better at it. * ⚓ Alessandro Segala ☛ Unlocking_Encrypted_ZFS_Volumes_with_a_Passkey⠀⇛ If you run servers with ZFS, especially in a homelab, you’ve probably had to make peace with an awkward trade-off around disk encryption. ZFS native encryption is great: it protects data at rest, the compression and dedup machinery still work above the encryption layer, and you can encrypt individual datasets. The hard part has never been enabling encryption: the hard part is figuring out where to keep the key. There are two common approaches to managing the encryption key for ZFS datasets, and neither one is fully satisfying. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2252 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Open_Hardware_Modding_RISC_V_Raspberry_Pi_and_More.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Open_Hardware_Modding_RISC_V_Raspberry_Pi_and_More.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Open Hardware/Modding: RISC-V, Raspberry Pi, and More⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 12, 2026 ⚓ CNX Software ☛ RVA23-compliant_K3_Pico-ITX_SBC_and_K3-CoM260_SoM_feature SpacemiT_K3_octa-core_RISC-V_Hey_Hi_(AI)_SoC,_up_to_32GB_RAM,_256GB_UFS⠀⇛ SpacemiT has now officially launched the K3 Pico-ITX SBC and K3- CoM260 system-on-module with the RVA23-compliant, SpacemiT K3 octa- core X100 CPU with up to 60 TOPS of Hey Hi (AI) performance, up to 32GB LPDDR5, 256GB UFS, and PCIe Gen3 x4 NVMe SSD support.

The company, now operating under the CyberArch/Carbon Computers brand, has introduced the Pi Slate, a more powerful handheld cyberdeck designed for portable computing and security-focused applications. Built around the Raspberry Pi 5, the Pi Slate integrates a 5-inch 1920×720 touchscreen, a backlit RGB keyboard with an integrated cursor, and a 10,000 mAh battery for 3–5 hours of portable use in a compact enclosure. * ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ Maker_Monday:_Some_of_the_best_RP2350-based_boards⠀⇛ The RP2350 microcontroller is the brains of Raspberry Pi Pico 2, along with a host of third-party boards. RP2350 features dual Arm Cortex-M33 processors running at 150MHz, 520KB of on- chip SRAM, and twelve PIO state machines. So, compared with the RP2040 microcontroller from the original Raspberry Pi Pico, it offers a major performance boost for handling more complex computational tasks. It’s no wonder it’s been used in such a wide range of third-party boards and devices — you can check out the full selection in the Powered by Raspberry Pi product catalogue. We’ll be taking a look at a few of the most interesting ones here, equipped with a variety of special features such as battery power inputs, extra GPIO pins and connectors, motor/ servo controllers, Ethernet ports, IMUs, and even mini LCD touchscreens. * ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Tiny_credit_card_computer_includes_eInk_screen_and_is just_1mm_thick_—_Muxcard_is_powered_by_the_ESP32-C3_microcontroller⠀⇛ The maker admits the Muxcard prototype is 1mm thick as it now stands. The official ISO/IEC 7810 ID‑1 is for a card of 0.76mm thickness, “but many real-world cards slightly exceed this in practice,” writes krauseler on the GitHub project page. Underlining the adherence to the credit card size, krauseler even uses an old plastic NFC card with most of its volume cut away as the Muxcard chassis. * ⚓ Hackaday ☛ It’s_A_Water_Clock,_Jim,_But_Not_As_We_Know_It_—_It_Has Digits⠀⇛ It wasn’t the original idea– well, the bottles were the original concept, but flipping them was not. Dumping the bottles has the advantage of not needing oodles of pumps or taking five minutes to sequentially fill and drain the bottles at each digit. The linkage to get the servo to flip all nine bottles in one go took some troubleshooting– we can relate, since the physical half of such projects usually is the hard part– but after many modifications the 3D printed mechanism worked, and we think the results are worth it. * ⚓ Bernd “beko” Kosmahl ☛ Got_myself_a_little_downtime_here._No…⠀⇛ Got myself a little downtime here. Not sure what’s going on but the system SSD threw IO errors and the LVM switched to read- only as a result. I’m kinda amazed that the system kept chugging along like that at all. Anyway, a long SMART self-test came back clean and the system reboots fine. Just to end up in read-only again after a few hours. Sadly disks are really very expensive currently so I grabbed an older SSD 840 EVO from the pile and set the system up again this morning. That’s also not a disk designed for 24/7 but that doesn’t really matter for my use-case here. Biggest headache was Debian renaming network interfaces *yet again* so I had to figure out what was going on when no link could be detected. * ⚓ Arduino ☛ This_futuristic-looking_dustbin_features_a_motion-activated iris_mechanism⠀⇛ That iris magic happens thanks to a pretty simple gear ring mechanism actuated by a small hobby servo motor. That servo motor operates under the control of an Arduino Nano board, which tells the servo to spin when it sees motion through an ultrasonic sensor. To avoid external wires, power comes from an 18650 lithium battery with a voltage booster to get clean 5V to the Arduino and servo motor. A custom PCB designed by Singh ties those components together in a compact package. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2381 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Programming_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Programming_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Programming Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 12, 2026 * ⚓ Lukáš Lalinský ☛ Async_I/O_in_Zig_0.16,_today⠀⇛ Zig 0.16 shipped last month with std.Io, a cross-platform interface for I/O and concurrency.

That world is gone. LLMs have compressed both timelines to near-zero. I have seen it first hand, and so has everyone else paying attention. This post lays out why the old model is broken, with real stories, and makes one ask to the industry: treat every critical security issue as P0 and patch it immediately. Not tomorrow. Not next sprint. Now. I have been doing security work for a while now, and the last 12 months feel different. Not in a “AI is going to take over the world” way. In a much more boring, much more practical way. The tools we use, the tools attackers use, and the tools researchers use to find bugs have all gotten smarter at roughly the same speed.

In 2011, the island nation of Samoa decided they wanted to align their workweek with Australia rather than the United States. To do this, they didn’t just change their clocks; they completely skipped Friday, December 30th. At 11:59 PM on Thursday, the clock ticked over, and it was suddenly Saturday. A whole day, erased from existence because a prime minister signed a piece of paper. If your backend job ran a cron on December 30th in Samoa, it just… didn’t happen. If we are going to build distributed systems, we have to stop trusting human time. Handling time is the kind of thing that will keep you awake at 3 AM questioning your career choices.

Metadata responses are rewritten on the way through so tarball URLs point back at the proxy rather than the origin, which is the part most simple HTTP caches get wrong. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2577 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Sasha_Levin_GAFAM_Wants_Killswitch_for_Linux_the_Kernel.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Sasha_Levin_GAFAM_Wants_Killswitch_for_Linux_the_Kernel.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Sasha Levin (GAFAM) Wants 'Killswitch' for Linux (the Kernel)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 12, 2026 * ⚓ Help Net Security ☛ Linux_developers_weigh_emergency_“killswitch”_for vulnerable_kernel_functions⠀⇛ Linux kernel developers are reviewing a proposal for an emergency risk mitigation mechanism (“Killswitch”) that would allow administrators to disable vulnerable kernel functions at runtime. The proposal, submitted by Linux kernel developer/maintainer Sasha Levin, arrives in the wake of the public disclosure of two privilege escalation vulnerabilities affecting the Linux kernel. * ⚓ It's FOSS ☛ Linux_is_Getting_a_Kill_Switch!⠀⇛ This AI-assisted patch would let admins disable vulnerable kernel functions until a proper fix ships. Sasha Levin, NVIDIA engineer and co-maintainer of the stable and long-term support kernel trees, has proposed a new patch that adds a mechanism called killswitch to the Linux kernel. It's pitched as a way for system administrators to disable a vulnerable kernel function on a running system, and the timing of it isn't a coincidence either. The patch follows the rising risk of Linux Privilege Escalation (LPE) vulnerabilities like Copy Fail and Dirty Frag. * ⚓ PC Gamer ☛ A_killswitch_has_been_pitched_for_the_Linux_kernel_that could_shut_down_vulnerable_functions_while_users_wait_for_patches⠀⇛ If you've ever felt anxious about the security of your machine while you wait for a solution to some vulnerability, a proposed change to the Linux kernel may interest you. Pitched by Nvidia staff Sasha Levin, it's effectively a killswitch that could shut down some functions while waiting for a more official solution. As spotted by The Information, Levin writes, "Killswitch lets a privileged operator make a chosen kernel function return a fixed value without executing its body, as a temporary mitigation for a security bug while a real fix is being prepared" Levin notes that when a security issue becomes public, many users of Linux are technically made more vulnerable until the patch is sent out into the world. You would naturally have to stay more vigilant and use the killswitch manually when issues are made known, but it gives some extra agency over your rig. Though the main focus are the commercial users that are most vulnerable, not your everyday Linux user. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2657 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Security_Breaches_Patches_and_Linux_Fear_Uncertainty_Doubt_Fear.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Security_Breaches_Patches_and_Linux_Fear_Uncertainty_Doubt_Fear.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Security Breaches, Patches, and Linux Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt/Fear-mongering/ Dramatisation⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 12, 2026 * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Resurrected_‘Crimenetwork’_Marketplace_Taken_Down, Administrator_Arrested⠀⇛ The second iteration of the German-speaking online crime marketplace had over 22,000 users and more than 100 sellers. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Checkmarx_Jenkins_AST_Plugin_Compromised_in_Supply Chain_Attack⠀⇛ A malicious version of the plugin was published to the Jenkins Marketplace late last week. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Build_Application_Firewalls_Aim_to_Stop_the_Next_Supply Chain_Attack⠀⇛ Rather than scanning code alone, Build Application Firewalls inspect runtime behavior inside the software build pipeline. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Canvas_System_Is_Online_After_a_Cyberattack_Disrupted Thousands_of_Schools⠀⇛ Tens of thousands of students studying for final exams around the world have regained access to a key online learning system after a cyberattack had earlier knocked it offline. * ⚓ malcontent:_Disk_Space_Exhaustion_via_Globally_Accessible_D-Bus_API_ (CVE-2026-44931)⠀⇛ malcontent is a parental control system for the GNOME desktop environment which allows to restrict access to adult Internet content and to keep track of and restrict the amount of screen time for children.

[...] Researcher Hyunwoo Kim responsibly disclosed the vulnerability, but someone made it public before patches could be released, prompting Kim to make the technical details and PoC code available. “Because it is a deterministic logic bug that does not depend on a timing window, no race condition is required, the kernel does not panic when the exploit fails, and the success rate is very high,” Kim explained. * ⚓ InfoSecurity Magazine ☛ Rushed_Patches_Follow_Broken_Embargo_on_New Linux_Kernel_Vulnerabilities⠀⇛ Major Linux distributions are rushing to fix two new vulnerabilities after the disclosure embargo was broken. The vulnerability, comprised of two chained issues in subsystems of the Linux kernel and known as ‘Dirty Frag,’ was detected in late April 2026 by independent security researcher Hyunwoo Kim. He found a local privilege escalation (LPE) flaw in the Linux kernel that could allow an attacker with local access to a vulnerable device to obtain root privileges on all major Linux distributions. * ⚓ ZDNet ☛ Linux_is_getting_a_security_wake-up_call_-_why_it_was inevitable_and_I'm_not_worried⠀⇛ Serious Linux vulnerabilities, like Copy Fail and Dirty Frag, are becoming more common.

We weren't so lucky with the newly disclosed Linux kernel flaw, dubbed Dirty Frag, which was also, it seems, discovered with AI's help, but patches are still in the works. * ⚓ Open Source For U ☛ Public_Linux_Code_Commits_Trigger_Early_Dirty_Frag Disclosure⠀⇛ The open-source Linux ecosystem is facing mounting pressure on its vulnerability disclosure model after parallel bug discovery triggered the premature exposure of the Dirty Frag local privilege escalation (LPE) vulnerability before complete patches were available. The Linux kernel security team had embargoed Dirty Frag until May 12 to allow fixes to be prepared. However, the embargo was broken on May 7 after developer Trevor (_SiCK) independently identified related exploit primitives through publicly visible kernel code commits while researching Copy Fail 2 (CVE-2026- 43284). * ⚓ LWN ☛ Two_stable_kernels_with_Dirty_Frag_fixes⠀⇛ Greg Kroah-Hartman has released the 7.0.6 and 6.18.29 stable kernels with Hyunwoo Kim's patch for the second vulnerability (CVE-2026-43500) reported with Dirty Frag and Copy Fail 2. All users are advised to upgrade. * ⚓ Homo Ludditus ☛ Is_Debian_the_Answer?⠀⇛ What I meant is this: Is Debian the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything? The context is that of a new Linux local privilege escalation vulnerability: Dirty Frag. 💣💥 * ⚓ Noë Flatreaud ☛ Thoughts_on_Dirty_Frag⠀⇛ The embargo was broken by external factors before patches existed, and the document was published at the request of the linux-distros maintainers. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 3031 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Today_in_Techrights.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Today_in_Techrights.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Today in Techrights⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 12, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇William_James_in_a_Seance_with_the_Medium_Mrs._Walden⦈_ ⚓ Updated This Past Day⠀⇛ 1. ⚓ Libya's_Share_on_the_Web:_5.2%_GNU/Linux⠀⇛ GNU/Linux has hit an all-time high there 2. ⚓ Codecs_and_Software_Patents_-_Part_VI_-_The_European_Patent_Office, Nokia,_Microsoft,_Sisvel,_and_More⠀⇛ Whatever Nokia used to be, it's certainly not an ally and a lot of the turmoil at the EPO is the fault of companies like Nokia ⚓ New⠀⇛ 3. ⚓ Links_11/05/2026:_Another_Oracle_Setback_and_Mass_Layoffs_in_Iran⠀⇛ Links for the day 4. ⚓ Gemini_Links_11/05/2026:_Older_Can_Be_Faster_and_Textmode_Workflow⠀⇛ Links for the day 5. ⚓ Links_11/05/2026:_The_Solicitors_Regulation_Authority_(SRA)_Admits_It Only_Reacts_When_It's_Too_Late_(Damage_Already_Done),_Ombudsman’s_Animal Cruelty_HK_Report⠀⇛ Links for the day 6. ⚓ If_It_Takes_You_a_Second_to_Serve_(or_Receive)_a_Page,_That's Definitely_Too_Slow⠀⇛ For speeds at milliseconds (e.g. for pages to fully load in a tenth of a second) the pages must be ready to be sent as soon as they're requested 7. ⚓ It's_Not_About_Speed,_It_is_About_Patience_and_Adherence_to_Truth, Principles,_Scientific_Integrity⠀⇛ attacks on us only ever made us stronger - a lesson that our adversaries have learned the hard way 8. ⚓ Cyber_Show_Does_it_Like_Techrights:_Static_and_Gemini_Protocol_as 'First-Class_Citizen'⠀⇛ HTML and GemText (over Gemini Protocol) would be rendered in tandem 9. ⚓ SLAPP_Censorship_-_Part_73_Out_of_200:_Microsoft's_Graveley_and_Garrett Remain_Closely_Connected_in_May_2026_("Tag-Teaming"_Against_Bloggers_in Another_Continent)⠀⇛ The phrase "judge a person by their friends" seems applicable here 10. ⚓ Discussions_About_When_the_Axe_Falls_at_IBM/Kyndryl_(11,000_Layoffs Estimated)⠀⇛ "Kyndryl restructuring should reduce overhead functions and reduce the number of managers that lack technical knowledge" 11. ⚓ A_World_After_Microsoft_(and_GAFAM)_and_After_GitHub_Shuts_Down⠀⇛ the only growth area is debt 12. ⚓ Fake_News,_Propaganda,_and_Misinformation:_Microsoft_Investing_Money_It Does_Not_Have_in_"Hey_Hi"_(for_"Entertainment_Purposes"_Only)⠀⇛ This will not end well 13. ⚓ Today_the_Whole_European_Patent_Office_(EPO)_is_on_Strike_and_Next Monday_an_Even_Bigger_Strike⠀⇛ the media refuses to cover these and is thus complicit 14. ⚓ The_Corrupt_Lecture_the_Non-Corrupt_-_Part_IXX_-_EPO_Management_Speaks of_Reputation_and_Integrity_While_Putting_Cocaine_Addicts_in_Management⠀⇛ If the EPO values its "reputation", then it needs to start by ousting the management 15. ⚓ Over_at_Tux_Machines...⠀⇛ GNU/Linux news for the past day 16. ⚓ IRC_Proceedings:_Sunday,_May_10,_2026⠀⇛ IRC logs for Sunday, May 10, 2026 17. ⚓ Links_11/05/2026:_Security_Breaches,_Politics,_and_Energy_Crunch⠀⇛ Links for the day 18. ⚓ Gemini_Links_10/05/2026:_"Accidental_Cameras"_and_"Addictive" Interfaces_in_Social_Control_Media⠀⇛ Links for the day ========================================================================= The corresponding text-only bulletin for Monday contains all the text.

Linuxize ☛ Nginx_Location_Blocks:_Match_Rules_and_Priority⠀⇛ How Nginx picks a location block: prefix, exact, and regex matches, the priority order, named locations, and common configuration patterns. * ⚓ TecAdmin ☛ Docker_on_Ubuntu_26.04_LTS⠀⇛ How to Install Docker on Ubuntu 26.04 Complete step-by-step guide for the latest Ubuntu LTS Docker allows you to run applications in lightweight, portable containers. Installing Docker on Ubuntu 26.04 (“Resolute Raccoon”) is straightforward when using the official Docker repository. * ⚓ OMG Ubuntu ☛ Fix_HEIC_images_not_loading_in_Ubuntu_26.04_LTS⠀⇛ If your HEIC photos show a “Could not load image” error in Ubuntu 26.04’s Image Viewer, you’re not alone – it’s an intentional breakage, albeit one that’s easy to fix. HEIC files are a variant of HEIF which use H.265/HEVC compression. If you own an iPhone or a newer Android device, the stock camera app uses this format by default. But Ubuntu 26.04 LTS longer preinstalls a decoder library for HEIC (though more accurately, it’s tweaked dependency chains to ensure one is no longer pulled in). * ⚓ TecMint ☛ How_to_Copy_Millions_of_Files_Faster_in_Linux⠀⇛ The cp command does exactly one thing well: it copies files, but it gives you no progress indicator, no rate limiting, no resume support, and no built-in checksum verification. * ⚓ APNIC ☛ Repairing_the_RPKIViews_H1_2026_archives⠀⇛ The rpkispool format revolves around a data structure called Canonical Cache Representation (CCR). To fully appreciate the function of CCRs, one should first consider the overall dimensions of the RPKI distributed database: As of April 2026, at any given time, a hot RPKI cache is around 1GB of Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER) — encoded data across ~ 515,000 objects. * ⚓ Marijke Luttekes ☛ Blog_refresh,_4.x⠀⇛ *slaps stylesheet* This front-end has many years on it, but a lick of paint and it's good to go. I've wanted to reorganize the stylesheet's CSS layers for a while, and to no one's surprise, that turned into a major refactor. I've released the changes; see the highlights below. * § idroot⠀➾ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_IPTVnator_on_Ubuntu_26.04_LTS⠀⇛ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_SolveSpace_on_Ubuntu_26.04_LTS⠀⇛ SolveSpace is a free, open-source parametric 2D and 3D CAD tool that gives GNU/Linux users serious design power without a commercial license. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_PeaZip_on_Ubuntu_26.04_LTS⠀⇛ Ubuntu 26.04 LTS does not ship with a GUI archive manager capable of handling every format you will encounter on a real GNU/Linux workstation or server. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_OpenClaw_on_Ubuntu_26.04_LTS⠀⇛ Running an Hey Hi (AI) assistant on a third-party cloud platform means your conversations, API keys, and agent logic all live on someone else’s hardware. o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Inkscape_on_Fedora_44⠀⇛ o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Python_on_Ubuntu_26.04_LTS⠀⇛ Ubuntu 26.04 LTS is out, and if you need to install Python on Ubuntu 26.04, you are in the right place. * § linuxcapable⠀➾ o ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Fix_Nginx_404_Not_Found⠀⇛ An Nginx 404 Not Found error means the request reached a web server, but the active Nginx configuration or the upstream application could not match it to a real file, directory, route, or fallback handler. o ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Fix_Nginx_502_Bad_Gateway⠀⇛ An Nginx 502 Bad Gateway error means Nginx accepted the client request but could not get a valid response from the upstream service. The upstream might be a reverse- proxied application, a PHP-FPM pool, a container, a private backend server, or another proxy layer in front of your origin. o ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ How_to_Install_React.js_on_Ubuntu_26.04,_24.04 and_22.04⠀⇛ Current React tooling expects a modern Node.js runtime before you write the first component. To install React.js on Ubuntu, set up a supported Node.js LTS release first, then scaffold a Vite project so JSX, fast refresh, local preview, and production builds all work from npm. o ⚓ Linux Capable ☛ Bash_Check_if_File_or_Directory_Exists⠀⇛ Good Bash scripts check paths before they assume a config file, log directory, upload target, or optional dependency is available. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 3592 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Two_years_without_a_laptop_taught_me_what_Android_can_t_do_and_.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/12/Two_years_without_a_laptop_taught_me_what_Android_can_t_do_and_.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Two years without a laptop taught me what Android can't do (and Linux can)⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on May 12, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇games⦈_ Quoting: Two years without a laptop taught me what Android can't do (and Linux can) — Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents: Two years ago, I replaced my laptop with an Android-based desktop, and for most of the time since, I've used Samsung DeX whenever I needed to do something the internal screen on my Galaxy Z Fold 6 couldn't handle.

These two distributions are heavy hitters in the world of Linux and have enjoyed great success for a long time. However, these two takes on Linux are quite different in several ways, so much so that choosing one or another could make a big difference in how you view Linux. Let's take a look at both of these Linux distributions and see which one might be best suited for you.

(It also makes it slightly harder to break by sending SYN packets, but it's not exactly hard to DDoS a server connected over what's effectively dial-up) * § Chromium⠀➾ o ⚓ Kyle Reddoch ☛ Microsoft_Says_It’s_“By_Design.”_Edge’s_Plaintext Password_Behavior_Is_Still_a_Security_Problem⠀⇛ Microsoft says Edge loading saved passwords into plaintext memory is by design. That framing misses the real problem: it widens the blast radius after compromise and creates real risk in shared, managed, and MSP- supported environments. * § Mozilla⠀➾ o ⚓ Mozilla ☛ Mozilla_Privacy_Blog:_Six_Million_Selections_Later:_How the_DMA_Is_Giving_People_Browser_Choice⠀⇛ At Mozilla, we’ve long believed in giving people choice and agency over their experiences online. As power in digital markets has concentrated in a small number of large companies, there have been efforts in the US, Japan, UK, India, Korea, Brazil and elsewhere to restore competition and put choice back in people’s hands. These efforts are at various stages, but first among them was the EU’s Digital Markets Act. Over two years since obligations came into effect, the DMA is delivering_for people in some key areas. ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 3760 ➮ Generation completed at 02:50, i.e. 39 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
