Do you try to avoid the Linux terminal? Linux doesn't have to be scary, and these days there are plenty of easy options for you. I have two beginner-friendly distros that won't try to make you use the terminal. Newcomers moving over from Windows often have misconceptions about Linux and the terminal. Users can choose from hundreds of distros, and some specifically accommodate beginners. Not every Linux user wants to obtain a Ph.D. in the command line, and so, naturally, there's a demand for less intimidating environments. From Windows- like GUIs to running Windows apps, the modern distro landscape has heard your call, and now you only need to answer.

Hundreds of distributions emerged with bold ambitions: to dethrone Windows, make open-source software accessible to everyday users, and redefine what a personal computer could be. As floppy disks gave way to LiveCDs, each new distro carried the promise of a better, freer operating system. A few of these projects gained serious momentum, building large communities, appearing on magazine cover discs, and inspiring intense loyalty across enthusiast forums. Over time, though, the landscape changed. Ubuntu absorbed much of the desktop Linux audience; enterprise adoption narrowed around a smaller group of dominant distributions, and containers fundamentally changed the server world. Many of the distros that once commanded huge attention now exist only on the fringes or have faded from relevance altogether.

This is a high-priority release. It addresses CVE-2026-44477 (the first CVE officially assigned against CloudNativePG, rated Critical with a CVSS v4 score of 9.4), alongside additional CVE remediations in dependencies and the Go runtime. * ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ Using_a_MariaDB_jail_with_Dynmap_for_Minecraft⠀⇛ By default, Dynmap renders tiles as files into its working plugin directory. This works when your map is small, but it can quickly generate tens of thousands of small files which, among many other issues, can slow down remote backups and retrieval. The README also lists a few database storage option alternatives, one of which is MariaDB which I’m already running for other things. If you’ve installed MariaDB on the same server, log in: [...] * ⚓ Modern SQL ☛ SQL’s_ORDER_BY_Has_Come_a_Long_Way⠀⇛ The order by clause is surely one of the best-known SQL clauses.

The full picture likely lives only in my brain, and while it could be sorted out by anyone (especially in this LLM age, yay or nay), why should it only be me thinking at night about all the single points of failure? Like any system that evolved naturally, it's all over the place. It's tempting to tell its history chronologically, but even then, it's difficult to find a good entry point. Instead, this post focuses on what happens when users call flatpak install; later entries will cover the website and, finally, the build infrastructure. Buckle up! * ⚓ It's FOSS ☛ Heavy_Community_Backlash_Blocks_Fedora's_Hey_Hi_(AI) Developer_Desktop_Initiative⠀⇛ Two council members have retracted their approval votes after people raised concerns. * ⚓ OSTechNix ☛ Rocky_Linux_Launched_Security_Repository_to_Fix_Critical Vulnerabilities⠀⇛ Rocky Linux developers usually release a fix after the official upstream (Red Hat) version became available. While this approach provides great stability, it also creates a dangerous "security gap" when hackers release exploits before a patch exists. To solve this, the team introduced the Rocky Linux Security Repository. This new repository acts as an emergency bridge for administrators who cannot afford to wait for upstream fixes while active threats circulate. * ⚓ Christian Hofstede-Kuhn ☛ Red_Hat_Offline_Knowledge_Portal:_All_the Docs,_Air-Gapped,_On_Your_Laptop⠀⇛ The entire Red Hat documentation site and the full Knowledgebase fit into a single OCI container that updates weekly, runs locally with a web UI and Solr search, and is included in every RHEL subscription that bundles Red Hat Satellite. I have it on my laptop. I use it daily. Almost nobody I talk to knows it exists. * ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ Red_Hat_dials_in_on_telco_cloud_modernization_as_legacy pressure_mounts [Ed: Red Hat spam sponsored by Red Hat (fake reporting)]⠀⇛ Telco cloud modernization has become an urgent operational imperative for operators burdened by decades of siloed infrastructure and the demands of 5G, 6G and edge AI. * ⚓ Techstrong Group Inc ☛ Red_Hat_Delivers_On-Premises_Cost_Telemetry_to Meet_Data_Sovereignty_Demands [Ed: Red Hat funded site about the funder]⠀⇛ * ⚓ Help Net Security ☛ Rocky_Linux_launches_opt-in_security_repository_for urgent_fixes⠀⇛ “The repository is disabled by default. That’s intentional. The default Rocky Linux experience stays exactly what it has always been: predictable, stable, and fully upstream-compatible. Administrators who want access to accelerated fixes can opt in when they need it,” Eric Hendricks of the Rocky Linux team explained. Administrators who want accelerated fixes can enable it with sudo dnf --enablerepo=security update or configure it permanently in their DNF settings. Systems that do not enable the repository continue to receive only standard upstream- aligned packages. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣠⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣰⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⡀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢘⡛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⢙⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠉⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⠀⠀⠀⠰⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⠛⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⢸⣿⣟⣿⣯⣿⣧⣄⣠⣶⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⣿⣿⣮⣤⣤⣠⡄⢠⣴⣤⣠⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⡟⣁⣾⣎⠻⠏⠀⢸⣿⢻⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣀⣄⣿⣿⡏⣿⣿⣧⣸⣏⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⢋⣼⣿⣿⣿⠗⠀⠀⣸⣽⣿⣯⣧⠋⠉⠍⢌⣹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⠀⠉⠁⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣷⡄⢘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠀⠀⠀⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢹⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣀⣠⣶⣾⣿⣿⠉⢛⣿⣿⡟⠉⢹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠙⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠀⠈⠉⠉⠁⠀⠈⠉⠉⠈⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 549 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/Free_and_Open_Source_Software.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/Free_and_Open_Source_Software.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Free and Open Source Software⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on May 16, 2026, updated May 16, 2026 * ⚓ Comic-DL_-_command-line_downloader_for_comics_and_manga_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Comic-DL is a command-line downloader for comics and manga. It fetches content from supported comic and manga websites, with options to download individual chapters, complete series, or specific chapter ranges.

This is free and open source software. * ⚓ Partiels_-_audio_analysis_tool_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Partiels is an audio analysis suite for studying the content and characteristics of sound files. It can analyse one or more audio files with Vamp plug-ins, display results as spectrograms, lin data with environments such as Max, Pure Data, and OpenMusic. free and open source software. * ⚓ Mini_Diarium_-_local-only_journaling_application_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Mini Diarium is a local-only journaling application that focuses on privacy, ownership, and a deliberately small feature set. It stores journal data on your machine, encrypts entries at rest, and avoids cloud sync, telemetry, analytics, and background network activity. Built with Tauri, SolidJS, Rust, and SQLite, the program has cross-platform support.

This is free and open source software. * ⚓ Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Linux_Software_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛ Open source software is any program where the developer releases the source code for free. Whenever software has an open source license, it means anyone in the world can download, modify and distribute it without paying fees to its original creator. Open source doesn’t just bestow a “free” download. Many companies develop software without charge but don’t publish the source code preventing other developers improving the code base. By contrast, open source projects are built on the endeavours of many collaborators who give up their time and expertise to create sublime software. This is the largest collection of recommended software. The collection includes hundreds of articles, with comprehensive sections on internet, graphics, games, programming, science, office, utilities, and more.

It was one of those things that I had fully intended to do years ago, but I only got around to actually doing once there was a definite deadline to get it done. The time has come, as OpenBSD 7.9 will leave the exim package behind, and exim users will need to find a replacement before upgrading. This article describes my transition to OpenBSD's own OpenSMTPD mail server. * ⚓ Andrew Nesbitt ☛ Language_Registries_Are_Unstable_by_Default⠀⇛ Running pip install requests or npm install react against the public registry is the same operation, structurally, as running apt install -t unstable against Debian sid, and nobody involved talks about it that way. I don’t mean “unstable” as a synonym for buggy, I mean it in the specific sense Debian has used since the late nineties: a pool of packages where new versions land the moment a maintainer uploads them, with no promotion gate, no minimum residency time, and no quality bar between the upload and your machine. * § Web Browsers/Web Servers/Feed Readers⠀➾ o ⚓ Maury ☛ Search_engine_results_are_truly_terrible⠀⇛ Even though it's is ubiquitous among computer nerds, ad blocking is quite rare even in other technical fields.

Before the backdrop of users circumventing age assurance systems mandated under the UK’s Online Safety Act, the consultation considers age-gating virtual private networks (VPNs). * § Content Management Systems (CMS) / Static Site Generators (SSG)⠀➾ o ⚓ Justin Duke ☛ Buttondown_no_longer_runs_Redis⠀⇛ Buttondown no longer runs Redis! I added it years ago for the same reason almost every Django app has Redis: that's just what you do. Workers wanted a queue, the queue wanted a broker, the broker was Redis. The cache wanted a backend, the backend was Redis. Sessions wanted a store, the store was Redis. And then it festers from there. * § Education⠀➾ o ⚓ Bernát Gábor ☛ PyCon_US_2026_Typing_Summit_Recap⠀⇛ The PyCon US 2026 Typing Summit ran Thursday May 14, 2026, from 1 PM to 5 PM in Room 201A of the Long Beach Convention Center, the day before the main conference started. Eight talks plus a Typing Council Q&A, single track. This recap is for anyone who could not be in the room. * § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ o ⚓ Howard Oakley ☛ Chinese_whispers_in_PDF_metadata⠀⇛ Chinese whispers is an old children’s game where everyone sits in a circle, and one child whispers into the ear of the next on their right a sentence like Send reinforcements, we’re going to advance. That child then whispers the message they heard to the child on their right, until it reaches the one who started it, who says out loud what they heard, classically Send three-and- fourpence, we’re going to a dance, as a demonstration of how messages can so easily become corrupted. What this has to do with China remains one of childhood’s mysteries. I should also explain that three-and-fourpence was idiomatic British English in the days before our currency was ‘decimalised’, and meant three shillings and four (old) pence, about 17 (new) pence, sufficient at one time to enjoy a good night out. In this article I’m going to do much the same with metadata for a PDF document, tracing what gets indexed by Spotlight, so becoming discoverable by search, and what is displayed in the Finder. This relies on several of my utilities, most of which are available from this page. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 957 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/Freexian_Collaborators_Debian_Contributions_and_New_Debian_Cont.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/Freexian_Collaborators_Debian_Contributions_and_New_Debian_Cont.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Freexian Collaborators' Debian Contributions and New Debian Contributors⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 16, 2026 * ⚓ Freexian_Collaborators:_Debian_Contributions:_Detecting_undeclared_file conflicts,_contributors.debian.org_mini-sprint,_security-tracker performance_and_more!_(by_Anupa_Ann_Joseph)⠀⇛ ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Debian Contributions: 2026- 04⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ ✐ Undeclared file conflicts, by Helmut Grohne⠀✐ The duplication_checker, the Multi-Arch_hinter, and the /usr- move_analyzer share significant parts of their code.

The organizing team, which includes members from both GNOME and KDE, has been hard at work and is on the ground in Berlin making final preparations. The schedule looks great, and it promises to be a well-attended event. The talks are being streamed this year, so make sure to watch our social control media for details, and tune in live to hear the talks. Preparations are continuing for July’s GUADEC.

It is a fun GLib/GObject library for experimenting with local machine translation from applications. The library uses Bergamot from Mozilla for the translation backend. Instead of sending text to a web service, liblingua resolves the language pair you ask for, downloads the required language model into the local user cache, and then performs translation locally. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1220 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/GNU_Projects_coreutils_emacs_and_GIMP.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/GNU_Projects_coreutils_emacs_and_GIMP.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ GNU Projects: coreutils, emacs, and GIMP⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 16, 2026 * ⚓ Rachel Kaufman ☛ 30_Days_of_coreutils:_sort⠀⇛ sort can take input from one or more files and sorts them line by line.

I explained how it is especially helpful while recording keyboard macros. Though it is nice to use in general. One tweak for it is to display a counter with its matches. Another is to change how it treats spaces, so that it can match any character in- between. This is not as flexible as, say, consult-line (from the consult package) when combined with vertico and orderless.

However, Anbernic’s decision to ship this with Android resulted in quite a few frustrating quirks that soured the experience. Today, Anbernic is finally looking to right the ship, as it announced an “All-New Linux System” designed for the RG DS and its dual-screen design. * ⚓ Make Use Of ☛ I_turned_on_zram_and_my_8GB_Linux_laptop_stopped_choking on_browser_tabs⠀⇛ Having 8GB of RAM has always felt adequate for me when running Linux. It's enough for fast boot times, and even on older hardware, it feels fluid. However, my browser needs have increased over the years. Running YouTube on one tab, searching in others, and keeping a Reddit thread open at the same time makes my laptop feel fragile. It hasn't made my Linux PC constantly slow. However, there is a level of unpredictability. Music stutters when I open new tabs, and typing may lag on certain websites. There was also the frustration of inactive tabs constantly reloading. It felt like my browser was overwhelming my system, even though Linux seemed lightweight beneath it. After enabling zram, it was surprising to see my laptop work without choking for the first time in months. ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠙⣿⠟⠛⠻⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠀⠀⢠⢠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⢸⣿⣦⣤⣤⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠙⠛⠛⠛⠻⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⢠⡆⢠⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠙⠛⠛⠛⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠘⠇⡾⣿⣿⣿⠏⠉⠃⠉⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢲⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠙⠛⠛⠛⠻⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣄⣀⣀⣀⣚⣿⣿⠀⠀⠖⣰⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣤⣤⣄⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠙⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠸⠿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣶⣶⣦⣤⣤⣤⣤⣄⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠐⠖⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⣘⣻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣤⣤⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⢀⡄⠀⠀⠀⠁⠉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣉⣉⡉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢸⣾⠇⠀⠀⠀⢀⣾⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣤⣤⣦⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⢸⡿⢿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠛⠛⠋⠉⠋⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂⠒⠀⠂⠂⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣾⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⡙⣻⣛⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1404 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/Kubernetes_v1_36_and_Various_Roles_in_Server_Even_Slop_Fondling.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/Kubernetes_v1_36_and_Various_Roles_in_Server_Even_Slop_Fondling.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Kubernetes v1.36 and Various Roles in Server, Even Slop Fondling⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 16, 2026 * ⚓ Kubernetes Blog ☛ Kubernetes_v1.36:_New_Metric_for_Route_Sync_in_the Cloud_Controller_Manager⠀⇛ This article was originally published with the wrong date. It was later republished, dated the 15th of May 2026. Kubernetes v1.36 introduces a new alpha counter metric route_controller_route_sync_total to the Cloud Controller Manager (CCM) route controller implementation at k8s.io/cloud- provider. This metric increments each time routes are synced with the clown provider. * ⚓ Kubernetes Blog ☛ Kubernetes_v1.36:_Mixed_Version_Proxy_Graduates_to Beta⠀⇛ Back in Kubernetes 1.28, we introduced the Mixed Version Proxy (MVP) as an Alpha feature (under the feature gate UnknownVersionInteroperabilityProxy) in a previous_blog_post. The goal was simple but critical: make cluster upgrades safer by ensuring that requests for resources not yet known to an older API server are correctly routed to a newer peer API server, instead of returning an incorrect 404 Not Found. We are excited to announce that the Mixed Version Proxy is moving to Beta in Kubernetes 1.36 and will be enabled by default! The feature has evolved significantly since its initial release, addressing key gaps and modernizing its architecture. * ⚓ Techstrong Group Inc ☛ The_Inference_Bottleneck:_Architecting Kubernetes_Autoscaling_for_Production_LLMs [Ed: Kubernetes riding slop and LLMs for hype, not substance of energy prudence]⠀⇛ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1461 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/Open_Hardware_Modding_RISC_V_Raspberry_Pi_s_Resort_to_Slop_and_.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/Open_Hardware_Modding_RISC_V_Raspberry_Pi_s_Resort_to_Slop_and_.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Open Hardware/Modding: RISC-V, Raspberry Pi's Resort to Slop, and More⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 16, 2026 * ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Start9_RISC-V_Router_features_SpacemiT_K1_SoC,_runs StartWRT_OpenWrt_fork_(Crowdfunding)⠀⇛ Start9’s “RISC-V Router” is powered by a SpacemiT K1 octa-core RISC-V processor paired with 4GB RAM and 16GB eMMC flash, and offers dual GbE networking, as well as an AsiaRF AW7915-NP1 WiFi 6 4T4R module enabling up to 2401 Mbps combined data link. It’s not exactly a high-end router, but Start9 claims it is the “most open router on the market” thanks to its RISC- V processor, OpenSBI open-source boot stack, and StartWrt operating system, a fork of OpenWrt. * ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Anthropic’s_open-source_Claude_Desktop_Buddy_turns ESP32-S3_devices_into_interactive_Hey_Hi_(AI)_desk_companions [Ed: Sloputers, a passing fad riding hype]⠀⇛ Anthropic has opened its Claude Hardware Interface (Bluetooth Hey Hi (AI) to developers, enabling an ESP32-S3-based desk companion to connect directly to the Claude desktop app over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). To demonstrate this new feature, the company released an open-source reference project called Claude Desktop Buddy. * ⚓ Raspberry_Pi_Weekly_Issue_#533_-_Help_us_test_our_new_chatbots [Ed: Oh noes, garbage]⠀⇛ Plus more new updates to Raspberry Pi Connect Howdy, We're trialling two different chatbots to see how well they answer technical questions using our written documentation — and we'd like you to join in. Read this post from our Software CTO, Gordon Hollingworth, to learn more about how it works, then have a go by typing in a question. We will never use Hey Hi (AI) to create documentation in the first place. * ⚓ CNX Software ☛ PENOX_WristBuds_–_A_Bluetooth_6.0_smartwatch_with integrated_TWS_earbuds_(Crowdfunding)⠀⇛ PENOX WristBuds is a 2-in-1 rugged Bluetooth 6.0 smartwatch with integrated TWS earbuds, eliminating the need for a separate charging case. Designed for outdoor enthusiasts and the “zero-clutter mobility” market. The watch is built around a Bluetrum AB5681G RISC-V smartwatch MCU managing both the smartwatch interface and audio synchronization. * ⚓ CNX Software ☛ M5Stack_PaperColor_ESP32-S3_devkit_features_4-inch_E_Ink Spectra_6_color_display⠀⇛ M5Stack PaperColor, or M5Paper Color, is an ESP32-S3 development kit with a 4-inch E Ink Spectra 6 full-color display with a resolution of 600×400, designed to offer both low power consumption and high visibility under strong lights. While the color ePaper display is the start of the show, the devkit also features a microSD card slot for storage, a microphone with echo cancellation, a 1W speaker, a temperature & humidity sensor, a few buttons, two RGB LEDs, an IR transmitter, and a Grove connector for expansion. * ⚓ Linux Gizmos ☛ M5Stack_PaperColor_is_an_ESP32-S3_dev_kit_with_Spectra_6 e-paper_panel⠀⇛ M5Stack has introduced the PaperColor, a compact development board built around the ESP32-S3R8 processor and a 4-inch Spectra 6 full-color e-paper display. The platform combines wireless connectivity, onboard sensors, audio hardware, battery operation, and expansion interfaces for low-power IoT and embedded display applications. * ⚓ Quentin Santos ☛ The_RP2350_is_too_fast⠀⇛ To be more specific, displaying stuff with the first display worked flawlessly, while the ST7796 would display a single frame correctly, and then glitch. Depending on the exact code running, the glitches would include: [...] * ⚓ Maury ☛ Building_a_clock_from_salvaged_Vacuum_Fluorescent_Displays⠀⇛ As a result, a triode tube conducts plate to filament when both the grid and plate have a positive voltage: similar to an n- channel MOSFET. A Vacuum Fluorescent Display is just a triode but with the anode plate coated in rare-earth oxide (similar to what's found in CRTs) which glows when stuck by electrons in the tube. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1579 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/OpenSUSE_Planet_News_Roundup_OpenSUSE_Build_Service_OBS_and_Tum.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/OpenSUSE_Planet_News_Roundup_OpenSUSE_Build_Service_OBS_and_Tum.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ OpenSUSE Planet News Roundup, OpenSUSE Build Service (OBS), and Tumbleweed's Review of the Week⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 16, 2026, updated May 17, 2026 * ⚓ OpenSUSE ☛ Planet_News_Roundup⠀⇛ The community blog feed aggregator lists the featured highlights below from May 8 to 14. * ⚓ Quick_Filtering_by_Label⠀⇛ Recently, we have focused more of our efforts on small user experience changes around labelling. While not large by themselves, those tweaks have an outsized impact on the ease of interactions with the labels. These updates are part of the Labels and Foster Collaboration beta program. You can find more information about the beta program here. Our efforts to foster collaboration started in August 2024, when we introduced labels and bug report links. * ⚓ Dominique Leuenberger ☛ Tumbleweed_–_Review_of_the_week_2026/20⠀⇛ Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, This week was quite uneventful: another holiday on Thursday in my region (Ascension Day), which also explains the lack of a snapshot being published that day. Actually, while I was reviewing the openQA results, the next snapshot had already landed and discarded the old one. I really need to better keep up with our automatisms (better yet, tests should not fail, then I would not have to look at any test result to confirm/ debug). Anyway, we managed to publish 5 Snapshots (0507, 0509, 0510, 0511, and 0512) this week. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1635 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/Programming_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/05/16/Programming_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Programming Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on May 16, 2026 * ⚓ Robert Lützner ☛ Schafe_sind_bessere_Rasenmäher_|_The_languages_I_code in⠀⇛ While writing my last post about growing my own software, I also started thinking about which languages I use for my projects. * ⚓ Jarema ☛ I_made_an_algorithmic_permashortlink_for_my_blog⠀⇛ At some point, I went down an IndieWeb rabbit hole and stumbled onto permashortlinks. Basically it’s a short URL that permanently redirects to a longer one. A link shortener, but one that’s gonna be mine and no third party is going to shove ads into it. That clicked instantly, and suddenly jar.tf had a new thing to do. * ⚓ Mike McQuaid ☛ Open_Source_Resistance⠀⇛ Open Source software is not a “hobby” for your spare time. Literally every company you have worked for couldn’t run their business without any OSS. They extract value every hour and then ask maintainers to beg for a Friday afternoon, a donation button or a kind word in an all-hands. We reject the begging. Maintainers inside companies should and can just take work time for the necessary work on the OSS code those companies already depend on. No paperwork required. No internal programme. No request for a manager’s blessing. Treat it like the infrastructure and technical debt work it already is and just crack on. This is not a new idea. We’re just saying the quiet part out loud. It’s the way most open source has always been done.

The name is itself an oxymoron: XML stands for eXtended Markup Language, which is open by definition, but OOXML’s syntax is so complex that it is unreadable even to advanced users.

Julia Evans ☛ Moving_away_from_Tailwind,_and_learning_to_structure_my CSS⠀⇛ When I started thinking about structuring CSS, I was intimidated at first: I’m not very good at structuring my CSS! But then I started reading blog posts talking about how to structure CSS (like A whole cascade of layers or How I write CSS in 2024) and I realized a couple of things: [...] * ⚓ Peter N M Hansteen ☛ OpenSMTPD_Is_The_Mail_Server_For_The_Future⠀⇛ It was one of those things that I had fully intended to do years ago, but I only got around to actually doing once there was a definite deadline to get it done. The time has come, as OpenBSD 7.9 will leave the exim package behind, and exim users will need to find a replacement before upgrading. This article describes my transition to OpenBSD's own OpenSMTPD mail server. * ⚓ Linux Host Support ☛ How_to_Install_ERPNext_on_Ubuntu_26.04⠀⇛ ERPNext is one of the best open-source ERP systems you will ever see. Unlike traditional ERP systems, which are often expensive and rigid, ERPNext offers greater flexibility at a more affordable cost, making it suitable for businesses of all sizes. ERPNext is built using Python and MySQL as the database backend. * ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Disable_NetworkManager_on_Fedora_44⠀⇛ NetworkManager is the default network management daemon that ships with Fedora 44. It does a great job on desktops and laptops where Wi-Fi networks change constantly. * ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_OpenTofu_on_Fedora_44⠀⇛ Meta Description: Learn how to install OpenTofu on Fedora 44 using three proven methods. * ⚓ Linuxize ☛ How_to_Check_CPU_Usage_in_Linux⠀⇛ This guide explains how to check CPU usage in GNU/Linux with top, htop, mpstat, vmstat, sar, ps, uptime, and per-core load tools. * ⚓ Linux Links ☛ Supercronic_–_crontab-compatible_job_runner_designed_for container_environments⠀⇛ Supercronic is a crontab-compatible job runner designed for container environments. * ⚓ Barry Kauler ☛ Pburn_missing_dependencies⠀⇛ These old optical media apps have been neglected for years.

Ubuntu 26.04 was released last month which is an LTS version, that’s Long Term Support version which means it will be supported for five years, so I thought I’d have a look at it. This version is also notable in that it is the first Ubuntu release to move to Linux 7.0. Plus, this time I’m running it on my newer M5 Apple MacBook Pro. Ubuntu is released by Canonical, a London UK based company with South African roots. So far those of us trying to boycott the US, this is a good choice. * ⚓ Ubuntu ☛ Finding_the_blind_spot:_How_Canonical_hunts_logic_flaws_with AI [Ed: Microsoft Canonical is hyping up slop]⠀⇛ Earlier this year, I began developing an internal AI-powered auditing agent called Redhound to proactively hunt for these exact blind spots. Built on frontier models, Redhound puts that reasoning to work against our own codebases at Canonical. * ⚓ Neowin ☛ Ubuntu_25.10_users_need_to_make_a_critical_move_before_July deadline⠀⇛ If you are running Ubuntu 25.10, a major transition window just opened. Here is how to upgrade your system safely before support officially drops this summer. [...] Ubuntu 26.04 LTS was released last month for those looking to do a clean install, but the upgrade paths are only now beginning to open up.
