I want to use the occasion to speak about my perspective on accessibility in GNOME and what I think we should do. For disabled people, computers are often even more important than for abled (non-disabled) people. Many areas of everyday life are currently only accessible via a computer for many disabled people. Still, accessibility is often an afterthought in software and hardware development. * ⚓ Hylke_Bons:_Icon_for_Demostage⠀⇛ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 156 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/AMD_driver_causing_massive_performance_loss_on_all_major_Linux_.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/AMD_driver_causing_massive_performance_loss_on_all_major_Linux_.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ AMD driver causing massive performance loss on all major Linux distros⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Jul 17, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇AMD_driver⦈_ Quoting: AMD driver causing massive performance loss on all major Linux distros - Neowin — Earlier today, we reported on an interesting tale wherein Windows 11, in its less-than-optimal state, performed really well against SteamOS inside the new Steam Machine. However, we also praised the SteamOS, which is based on Arch Linux, as it was able to keep up with a much more established gaming platform.

I decided to do a few of my own tests to get some answers. I have a Windows-Linux dual-boot configuration on my main desktop PC. While I prefer using the Linux desktop, I wanted to see if I was just imagining the speed gains I'd convinced myself I was getting by most days leaving Windows 11 out of the question.

DXVK 3.0.2 also works around a game bug in Halo: Combat Evolved causing rendering issues, fixes a potential swapchain issue in Overwatch when running the game at non-native resolutions, and fixes spurious GPU hangs in the Granblue Fantasy: Relink game for users using NVIDIA GPUs (this may affect other games too).

That’s time they haven’t spent learning other editors. It seems plausible, then, that the more experienced someone is in a specialized editor, the less able they are to give a fully informed opinion of how it compares to some other editor. Especially given just how much time those editors take to master. * ⚓ Bozhidar Batsov ☛ Simplifying_Session_Management_in_CIDER⠀⇛ Session management is one of those areas where the “smart” solution and the good solution turned out to be different things. Seven years of friendly sessions taught me that users don’t actually want their tools to be clever - they want them to be predictable, and fast, and clever only when the cleverness is cheap and explainable in one sentence. “Your project’s files use your project’s REPL” passes that bar; “your buffer matches some session’s classpath” never did. * ⚓ Mark Litwintschik ☛ Flight_Planning_with_Little_Navmap⠀⇛ The application reminds me of QGIS, which has a code base that is an order of magnitude larger. Little Navmap only needs 14K lines of C++ for routing; the main UI is ~7K lines; the map display and interaction lean heavily on KDE's Marble, so only 21K lines are needed and weather support only needs 2K lines of code. * ⚓ It's FOSS ☛ FOSS_Weekly_#26.29:_Mint_Goes_Wayland,_OpenBook_Reader, Terminal_Shortcut_Tips,_GNU/Linux_Handheld_Computers_and_More⠀⇛ Is wayland slow? Linux Mint has taken the slow road to Wayland while everyone else rushed ahead, and it looks like that paid off.

I use my feed reader because it's configured exactly how I like it. The colors are tweaked to a palette that's pleasing to my eyes and doesn't cause strain.

This means that 75.33% of all PS3 games can now be played on Windows, Linux, macOS, and FreeBSD using either x86 or arm64 processors. * ⚓ Boiling Steam ☛ New_Steam_Games_with_Native_GNU/Linux_Builds,_including A_Game_about_Chopping_Trees_-_2026-07-15_Edition⠀⇛ Between 2026-07-08 and 2026-07-15 there were 83 New Steam games released with Native GNU/Linux builds. For reference, during the same time, there were 664 games released for backdoored Windows on Steam, so the GNU/Linux versions represent about 12.5 % of total released titles. It’s still summer and there’s not a lot of big games coming out, but there’s one about chopping trees that seems to be quite fun, alright.

Windows, since it does not require constant reboots of the operating system and complex intervention in the kernel. * ⚓ Windows_11_vs_Linux_Gaming_Test_Reveals_There's_More_to_It_Than_FPS⠀⇛ It seems as though the launch of Valve's Steam Deck has resulted in an almost non-stop slew of comparisons between Linux and Windows as a gaming operating system. In one recent test, Meta PCs sought out to test the two operating systems head-to-head to get some hard numbers and potentially settle the debate, however, the results brought up an interesting debate about what makes one operating system better than another. Benchmarks were conducted on an all-AMD system running an AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D, an XFX Swift AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT 16 GB, and 16 GB of RAM, with the AMD Linux drivers effectively making this a best-case scenario for Linux. The benchmarks were run on the latest version of Windows 11 and Fedora Linux 44, games were tested at the same resolution, and results were an average across three runs. All games tested were also the Windows versions running via Valve's Proton compatibility layer. ⠀⠀⠤⣽⡏⠁⠂⠐⠀⠉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⣀⣀⡀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠙⠛⠛⠛⠿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣯⣹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⢠⣤⡄⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠛⠛⠛⠿⠿⠟⠛⠻⠿⠀⢀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠌⠙⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠐⠲⠶⠀⠀⠀⢠⣽⡯⣿⡿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠓⠒⠂⠓⠒⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠒⠒⠒⠂⢂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⡲⠤⠸⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠺⠿⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠶⣶⢷⣦⡤⢤⠄⠄⠤⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⠀⠀⠲⠶⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⡐⠴⠆⢾⡿⠍⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⡅⠐⠛⠋⣉⣁⣤⢤⢡⣅⣤⣄⡭⠡⠡⠄⠀⢨⠀⠉⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣰⣿⣷⣄⣀⣀⣀⣸⣿⣶⣀⡀⠈⠚⠉⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⡀⠀⠞⢣⣿⣖⡃⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⢸⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀ ⢀⣀⣀⣠⡤⠤⠤⠤⠴⠶⠖⠒⠒⡒⢒⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⢀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡄⣚⣽⠫⣞⡑⠋⠛⠑⡙⠋⠓⠒⠂⠀⠀⠀⠘⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠀⢀⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠑⠉⠛⠒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡇⠩⢹⣗⡹⠿⡿⡋⣋⢉⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂ ⠶⠶⠶⠆⠀⠒⠦⢴⣶⣶⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠟⠛⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣠⣔⣞⣭⣍⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠒ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠁⠁⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⢾⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠨⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢀⣀⠀⠤⣤⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣩⣭⣥⣔⣠⣤⣤⣾⣿⣿⣥⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⢛⣿⣷⣴⣦⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂⠄⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠈⣛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣀⣺⣿⣿⣛⣛⣻⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⣽⣯⣭⣥⣦⣤⣄⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠁⠀⠐⠒⠒⠂⠀⠀ ⠀⢺⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⡿⢿⣛⣀⣁⠰⠦⠤⠴⠾⠛⠩⠽⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠹⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠶⠶⠒⣒⡒⠖⠒⠤⠤⠀⠈⠉⠒⠚⢛⢉⠛⠛⠋⠉⠉⠙⠋⠉⢹⡿⠿⠟⢻⣿⣦⣤⣤⡄⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣤⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠒⠛⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⠲⠤⠤⠤⠔⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠁⠀⠂⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠐⠒⠚⠿⢟ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣻⣿⣯⣽⣦⡀⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠐⠶⠦⠄⠀⠁⠒⠲⠤⢶⡶⠤⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⣛⣛⣫⣭⣽⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣶⡀⠀⠀⠀⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣿⣿⠿⠿⣛⣛⣯⣭⣥⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣛⣴⣶⣾⣷⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢛⣛⣫⣭⣭⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠟⢛⣋⣭⣴⣶⣶⣦⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⢉⠍⡽⠻⡟⣿⣟⣿⡟⠿⣿⡟⠋⠉⠉⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠉⠁⠐⠐⠚⠛⠛⠉⠛⠙⠛⠛⠛⠛⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠀⣄⡠⣤⢠⠀⢠⠀⢤⣤⠀⡄ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1053 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/Games_Steam_Machines_Jagex_Humble_Handhelds_Bundle_and_More.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/Games_Steam_Machines_Jagex_Humble_Handhelds_Bundle_and_More.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Games: Steam Machines, Jagex, Humble Handhelds Bundle, and More⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 17, 2026 * ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Steam_Machines_with_the_‘Red_Line_of_Death’_get_a simple,_official_cure:_Clear_the_CMOS_—_clearing_the_CMOS_can_revive_flat (red)-lining_cubes⠀⇛ Valve’s official account on Reddit has responded to RLOD victims with simple step-by-step instructions to get any affected Steam Machine up and running again. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Jagex_Launcher_Linux_Beta_released_for_Old_School Runescape_|_GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ Jagex today announced the official release of the Jagex Launcher Linux Beta, making it hopefully simpler and easier to get into Old School Runescape. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Game_on_the_go_with_the_new_Humble_Handhelds_Bundle_| GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ Want some more games for your Steam Deck, Legion Go or whatever other device you have?

analysis of failed package builds in Copr. Relatively recently, we have also integrated our service with Packit. Now, you can use our log summarization algorithm with your own agent, using our new MCP_server. Rather than relying on a remote service, the logs are all processed locally. * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ Layered_sandboxing_for_Hey_Hi_(AI)_agents:_OpenShift_and OpenShell⠀⇛ To do their job, Hey Hi (AI) coding agents need to run shell commands, read and write files, and make network calls. That's the same capability profile as a compromised workload, and no single sandbox technology covers the full threat surface. Red Hat_OpenShift_sandboxed_containers and NVIDIA_OpenShell each address a different part of the problem. Together, they help reduce the attack surface that either one leaves open on its own. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ How_Red_Hat_solves_the_toughest_challenges_in agentless_infrastructure_scanning⠀⇛ Built advanced merge logic combining unique hardware and subscription identifiers, such as MAC addresses, Subscription Manager IDs, and system UUIDs. Discovery cross-references these attributes to compile a single, highly accurate record per physical or virtual asset. To handle identical cloned assets like VMware templates, the engine analyzes creation dates, DRS affinity rules, and instance-versus-template metadata to ensure accurate counting. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Interactive_labs:_Enterprise_lab_environments,_ready in_minutes_at_no_cost⠀⇛ Before anything reaches production, you have to test it, validate it, and sometimes learn about it from scratch. All 3 of these steps are necessary to have a properly running environment but your window to complete them is almost always shorter than expected. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Why_Operational_Resilience_and_Digital_Sovereignty Top_the_CIO_Agenda⠀⇛ Navigating this need for operational predictability is challenging for organisations operating in highly sensitive environments with strict compliance frameworks and data residency requirements. To protect citizen and consumer services, forward-thinking IT leaders are transitioning to open hybrid and multicloud strategies. Building on an open source foundation, centred on control, transparency, and resilience, gives deployment choices based on open standards. This approach reduces vendor dependency, protects sensitive workloads, and keeps critical services running smoothly.  * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ How_obs-mcp_boosts_AI-native_OpenShift_observability⠀⇛ The Model Context Protocol (MCP) makes it possible to give large language models (LLMs) access to a diverse set of data sources so they can reason and arrive at data-driven conclusions. In complex Red Bait OpenShift environments, MCP can serve as a standardized, strategic bridge between these models and our intricate data layers. This is the first step towards transitioning to proactive observability horizontally within an organization, where Hey Hi (AI) acts as a functional extension of site reliability engineering (SRE) teams. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ How_insurance_organizations_balance_strict compliance_with_data_agility⠀⇛ While many organizations have recently adopted a cloud-first strategy, a significant number of those have since pivoted to operating in an open hybrid cloud environment. For insurance organizations, adopting a hybrid cloud strategy was largely because moving all operational data to the public cloud environments was impossible due to strict regulatory requirements and legal data privacy concerns.Insurers hold a vast amount of proprietary, personally identifiable data. In addition to basic financial data, insurers need to have sensitive information about policyholders so they can accurately ass * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ Why_your_RBAC_linter_misses_privilege_escalation_chains_(and how_to_fix_it)⠀⇛ If you run kube-linter on your Kubernetes manifests, you probably feel pretty good about your role-based access control (RBAC) setup. It catches wildcard verbs, cluster-admin bindings, and excessive Secret access. But there is a class of vulnerabilities it fundamentally cannot detect: indirect privilege escalation through binding chains. This post walks through the problem, shows how an attacker exploits it, and introduces kube-chainsaw, a tool that catches what per-object linters miss by building permission graphs from static manifests. * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ Visualize_your_cluster:_Manage_observability_with_Red_Bait build_of_Perses⠀⇛ Within the Red Bait OpenShift ecosystem, Red Bait build of Perses represents a shift in how you manage and use observability data. Integrated as the visualization engine for Red Bait OpenShift observability—shipped by the cluster observability operator—Perses transforms observability from a fragmented collection of isolated tools into a unified, Kubernetes-native experience. By acting as a central architectural hub, the cluster observability operator uses Perses to consolidate the installation, lifecycle management, and visualization of the entire observability stack. * ⚓ Jakub_Kadlčík:_Fedora_Package_Review_Process_reimagined⠀⇛ The Fedora_Package_Review_Process is clunky, archaic, and not on par with what we expect when contributing to Open Source projects in this century. We all know that, and we all want it to improve. That being said, we need to realize what is currently our main bottleneck. Even though the process is not friendly to new contributors, they are doing just fine - at all times, we_have_hundreds_of_new_packages_in_the_queue. Our biggest problem is our inability to effectively review them. * ⚓ InfoWorld ☛ Red_Hat_OpenShift_4.22_tackles_cloud_costs,_AI_workloads [Ed: Selling slop, going with a pyramid scheme's flow]⠀⇛ * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Defining_sovereign_AI_with_open_source_ft._Jered Floyd [Ed: Chris Wright sold out and sold his soul to slop boosters at IBM]⠀⇛ * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Centris_speeds_up_software_delivery_with_modern developer_portal⠀⇛ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1420 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/KDE_Mega_Sprint_2026_and_Server_side_Drop_Shadows.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/KDE_Mega_Sprint_2026_and_Server_side_Drop_Shadows.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ KDE Mega Sprint 2026 and Server-side Drop Shadows⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 17, 2026 * ⚓ KDE_Mega_Sprint_2026⠀⇛ I attended my first KDE sprint in Graz, Austria, travelling abroad for the first time.

I would like to share a few details about a feature that I’m really excited about, which landed in KWin recently. Drop shadows are drawn either by the compositor or the application. For example, a good chunk of GTK applications employ the latter strategy, the drop shadows are drawn on the client side; Qt applications usually ask the compositor to draw a window decoration plus the drop shadow. However, there are also applications that do neither. For the consistency sake, it will be nice if you could force the compositor to add drop shadows for those windows. This is the new feature that will come in the next release of Plasma — 6.8. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1464 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/Linux_doesn_t_force_me_to_use_the_terminal_these_3_tools_prove_.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/Linux_doesn_t_force_me_to_use_the_terminal_these_3_tools_prove_.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Linux doesn't force me to use the terminal—these 3 tools prove it⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Jul 17, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇screen⦈_ Quoting: Linux doesn't force me to use the terminal—these 3 tools prove it — Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents: I'm still a novice Linux user, but the more time I spend with it, the more I like it. What started as a way to keep an older PC useful has turned into something I genuinely enjoy using. Linux feels faster, more flexible, and far less intimidating than I expected, especially now that I've found applications that make the desktop experience feel more complete. That said, I'm still not a fan of opening the terminal for everyday tasks. I understand why experienced Linux users like it, and I'm not arguing that it doesn't have its place. I just don't want to memorize commands to monitor my PC, manage software, or install an AppImage. Thanks to these graphical apps, I don't have to.

So the goal was to connect something to my doorbell that would wirelessly transmit a signal that I would then be able to integrate into Home Assistant. Knowing nothing about how the bell is wired, first idea was to try and somehow attach an ESP32 to the bell that would then transmit a Zigbee signal. Looking online, I found a lot of solutions similar to my idea. But after finding the schematics of the bell, I realized that the bell is powered by a bell transformer (which outputs 8-12 V AC) and the voltage at the gong is only present while someone presses the button. Looking into batteries powered / deep-sleep solutions, and how long it takes for a Zigbee device to boot and join the network, I realized that this was a bad idea. * ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Olimex_PICO-EVB_automation_board_adds_high-voltage terminals_to_Raspberry_Pi_Pico_family⠀⇛ Olimex PICO-EVB board for the Raspberry Pi Pico and compatible boards is designed for high-voltage automation with four 3.3- 30V DC or 110-220V AC inputs and four 15V DC/220V AC relays.

Dr. Stallman announced GNU that September, the Free Software Foundation followed in 1985, and the GPL turned the four freedoms into something you could enforce in court. By the time anyone said “open source,” the movement it renamed had fifteen years of code behind it: Emacs, GCC, most of a working operating system. And the talking mattered as much as the code. In 1991 a Finnish student who’d been steeped in the GNU world wrote a kernel for fun, licensed it under Dr. Stallman’s GPL, and dropped it into the fifteen years of GNU userland already waiting for it. That student was Linus Torvalds, and that’s why Linux became an operating system instead of a hobby tarball. In 1997 Werner Koch heard Dr. Stallman speak in Germany, urging Europeans to build a free replacement for PGP that US crypto export law couldn’t touch; Koch went home and wrote GPG, the tool journalists and dissidents still stake their lives on. No preaching, no Linux, no GPG. The preacher was load-bearing.

He had already completed three years military service before the war but when the empire called, he re-enlisted and came to the UK in a boat. Coincidentally, 17 July is also the date that nominations close in the Clacton- on-Sea by-election. On 13 August, the residents of Clacton-on-Sea are being asked to rise to the occasion and vote for the candidate who will best represent the interests of the region, the nation and the Commonwealth. In other words, should people make a tactical vote for a man with a bin on his head or a strategic vote for the great-grandson of an ANZAC hero? § Launching the Pocock-on-Sea campaign⠀➾ There were so many news reports after the previous member resigned from his post. The date of his resignation, 7 July, coincides with the anniversary of the London underground terrorist bombings from 2005. One of his colleagues, Ann Widdecombe, was very regrettably killed the following day. Ever since then, news reports discussed the egos of novelty candidates. If the Essex Lion was to appear on the ballot paper, I suspect it would have an equally good chance of winning. I have yet to see a single report about the real, day-to-day issues facing residents of the district. In a parody of this situation, I have chosen the codename Pocock-on-Sea for the operation to unleash an Australian upon London's Establishment. § Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson both endorsed Australianism⠀➾ The outgoing candidate and the former prime minister have both publicly called for the replacement of UK policies with Australian policy. Clacton residents now have the opportunity to take up the nearest pair of scissors and cut out the middleman. Why pay for Nigel_Farage to copy Australian policies when you can simply have a real Australian like me? § Police already investigating foreign election influence⠀➾ In 2024, I contested the European Parliament election for the most disadvantaged region in Europe, Ireland's Midlands North West. On 6 June 2024, the day before voting, members of the Debianism cult distributed a falsified legal document in contempt of court. The timing of the malicious publication was clearly an attack on the democratic process. In 2025, it was revealed that a_key_member_of_the_group_engaged_in_that_vendetta_is_a registered_sex_offender_from_Florida. Other members of the group have repeatedly_and_publicly_expressed_support_for_violence. Subsequently, I published a detailed history of the dispute, demonstrating how another_collaborator_in_the_group_died_on_our_wedding_day_in_2011. His wife became the mayor of Basel. Imagine having that death on your mind on your wedding anniversary every year. As with everything in Switzerland, there is extreme embarrassment about the whole affair because it was part of the_Debian suicide_cluster. Many people in Clacton-on-Sea are deeply concerned about the risks of social control_media for their children. If this online culture is not even safe for the people who created it, how can it be safe for kids? Mental health, in general, is a big issue for the region. § The Deep Blue State⠀➾ There is a lot of news about the Deep State and the Establishment at the moment. Are they real? People are invited to read my blog post Google,_FSFE_and_Child_Labor and the efforts made by IBM Red Hat to censor the blog. A legal panel made a verdict of harassment, stating that my company, my family and I are the victims. (evidence bundle) In Switzerland, the deputy head of the financial regulator resigned_immediately after_I_proved_they_failed_to_prevent_exploitation_of_cross-border_workers_in the_insurance_industry. In 2017, the Fellowship elected_me_on_25_April,_ANZAC_Day,_in_the_German_FSFE. I immediately began rooting out the corruption and identity_fraud. In 2025, I_filed_a_law_suit_against_these_free_software_cults_in_the_US_Federal Court. The judge has temporarily dismissed some parts of the case and ordered other parts of the case to be reintroduced in New York's state court. The sections that were dismissed are subject to an appeal. Evidence about these cults is revealed_in_the_crowdfunding_video. § United Nations appearance⠀➾ Here are the_comments_I_made_at_the_United_Nations_Forum_on_Business_and_Human Rights_in_2018. These comments were made before the sale of Twitter to Elon Musk. To learn more about my work, please see the_crowdfunding_video_about_shaming and_censoring_in_open_source_software_cults. § Conflict in Straight of Hormuz was anticipated - twice⠀➾ President_Trump was elected for the first time on my birthday. In the week of his first inauguration, I_published_this_blog_anticipating_war_in_the_Straight of_Hormuz. In the week of Trump's second election by the American people, I repeated_the prediction_in_this_blog. Clacton-on-Sea has an amazing opportunity to upgrade from Trump's lap-dog to a bona-fide Trump Whisperer. § Volunteers are more important than donations⠀➾ The party of the incumbent candidate has over 260,000 members. Many of them will be asked to come to Clacton-on-Sea for a day or a weekend doorknocking on behalf of their candidate. If people want to see a real expert on cybersecurity, open_source_software, cryptocurrencies and other digital freedoms elected into the UK Parliament, it is vital to spread the word about my campaign and come to speak to residents in person on the next four weekends or any other days when you are available. There are direct trains from London's Liverpool Street station to Clacton-on- Sea. People can also take any other train to Colchester and then use the local train or bus into the region. People traveling by car can follow signs for Colchester. After passing Colchester, there are signs pointing towards Clacton- on-Sea. § Call for Nigel Farage, champion of the imperial system of weights and measures, to run a mile against an Australian candidate⠀➾ Politicians frequently talk about running for election. The public is fed up with this talk. If you say you want to run and if you are going to force the council staff to change their summer holiday plans and organise an election at huge public expense then you need to run when you say you want to run. In other words, dust off your trainers. The story of the four-minute-mile was closely intertwined with the enthusiasm for an Anglo-Australian grudge match. Farage has refused to debate other candidates so I'm calling for him to prove his love for the mile with me. § Call for other candidates to stand aside and support me⠀➾ If Count_Binface stands aside and endorses the Pocock-on-Sea campaign, should I appoint Binface as my ambassador to Washington as a consolation prize?

She wanted food and she howled for it. It is a relatively calm (and cloudy) Friday, so the other birds will likely come late. Last weekend we said that we would pace things up a bit, starting around this time (middle of this week). Indeed, the number of new pages added to Tux Machines has increased (average_of_about_40_per_day, more_than_the_usual), many were original_stories, and we believe we can maintain this increase. As long as we are not bothered by a million pounds in lawfare_funded_by_third_parties. Next week should be a calm week for us. It'll be the first such week this month. We recently ran a 5-page series about Japan and earlier_today_published_a_follow-up. We currently work on six other_series in tandem. Bolstered by new whistleblowers and fruitful collaborations, we are able to produce more stories than ever before. █ =============================================================================== Image source: Vintage_public_domain_illustration_available_from_the_library_of congress. ⣿⣿⣿⢿⣩⠈⢈⣁⡍⠂⠀⡀⠁⠉⠈⡝⣻⡛⠿⢗⣻⣭⣭⡍⠛⠦⢦⡄⠓⣺⣿⣿⣫⣿⠋⠈⠘⠛⠉⠘⣈⣙⣦⣤⣽⣦⡊⢁⢻⣿⣿⡛⠇⢸⣿⣆⢀⠀⠀⡻⣿⣟⡈⠑⢦⠥⠉⣚⠞⠿⡿⠛⠏⣹⢿⣛⣻⠇ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣿⠥⡀⢀⡘⣿⣶⡾⢛⣿⣿⣯⣖⣶⣶⣦⣾⣿⣟⡈⡐⠐⢦⡈⢻⠭⠁⠑⢀⣀⣤⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠛⠫⠕⠈⡄⠋⠩⡥⠀⠀⣿⡏⠀⠒⢛⠃⠨⠘⢇⠀⠀⠁⠁⠀⢀⣁⣤⣤⣦⣧⡄⠀⠈⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡧⣰⡿⠁⣽⣷⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣯⡍⠛⠟⠿⡆⠀⠈⢀⣠⣴⣾⣿⡿⠿⠛⠉⠈⠕⠒⠔⡰⢯⠑⠓⠀⢀⠀⢠⠀⡙⢆⣘⡂⠀⠀⠀⠉⠃⣀⣀⣤⣤⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣄⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡗⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠌⠁⣠⣶⣿⠿⠛⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠆⢠⠁⠘⠂⠀⣠⣤⣴⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⢀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⣿⠟⢋⣀⡤⣄⠠⠀⠤⠤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⢠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠍⠻⢿⣿⣿⡟⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⠀⢀⣀⠀⣠⡿⠋⢀⡺⣿⣿⣿⣧⢄⣂⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⠠⢔⣰⣶⠿⠂⠀⠀⢀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⡻⡿⣷⣄⠀⠻⠋⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠭⠩⣙⡛⠑⡰⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠉⠙⠛⠛⠻⠿⠿⠿⠷⠶⠶⠶⠿⠟⠛⢉⠁⡄⠀⠀⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣫⣻⣟⢿⣾⡾⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⡀⠀⠉⠀⠁⠀⠴⠀⠀⢸⠁⠀⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣦⢀⣿⣿⠀⠁⢀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⠙⠻⢷⣶⡋⣿⠋⠀⣴⣆⣠⠇ ⠃⣼⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⢀⡀⠄⠀⠒⠀⠀⢸⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠸⣿⣿⠀⣆⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣀⣽⣿⡇⠀⠀⠉⠉⠻⠘ ⡸⣾⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠊⡘⢁⡀⡤⡨⠀⠀⣼⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢿⣏⢠⣿⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣟⠃⢀⣀⣀⠀⡀⠀ ⠁⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⡙⣭⠀⠞⢻⠟⠛⠙⠁⠀⠀⣿⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢸⡯⢺⣿⠀⡿⢿⡟⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⠿⣿⠧⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⣁⠀⠀ ⠇⠩⠇⠀⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣛⣫⢫⣤⠦⣶⣶⣀⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⠀⠀⠁⠀⢦⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢻⠀⠀⢉⡄⡇⢀⣷⣿⣷⣷⣽⢹⡿⣿⣿⣾⣻⣤⣝⠈⣫⣎⡙⣿⣿⡿⠿⣿⡿⣿⠟⠀⠁⠀⠀ ⣷⠀⢠⠎⢙⠛⡙⣻⣿⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣮⢀⠂⠉⢩⠽⢾⢀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠸⠀⠈⠀⣀⡸⠀⠂⠙⣿⣿⣿⠋⣰⠎⠀⣠⣯⣷⡁⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠏⠀⢰⣬⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣭⣉⠩⠁⣛⣃⡁⠀⠰⠲⠶⡄ ⣷⠇⠀⠲⠦⠉⠹⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠉⠀⠀⠙⢆⠠⢄⠁⠀⣠⣶⡦⡀⣶⣿⣿⠡⠀⠈⠅⢹⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⡀⣿⣿⣿⠀⢸⣿⣿⠀⡠⢠⡤⢴⣿⣿⡟⢻⣿⣿⣶⡛⠻⠛⢛⡥⣀⢼⣿⣿⣧⣶⣦⣤⡈⣄ ⡗⠁⠐⠄⠀⠀⠀⠐⠿⠛⢛⢿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠓⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢡⠈⢀⡤⣹⣿⣧⡁⣹⡿⠟⠀⡆⠀⠀⣾⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠁⡉⢛⠋⠀⢻⠙⣚⠊⢾⣿⣷⣄⢹⣿⣿⣿⡟⠻⠿⢂⡆⣠⣾⣿⣿⡆⢻⣿⣿⠟⠛⠋⠀⠀ ⠀⠁⡀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢠⣛⣿⣿⣥⣄⠀⠀⣐⠀⠀⠈⣤⣸⢿⠟⠙⠟⡇⢈⢶⣤⢸⡇⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⡀⡀⠻⡿⠇⡇⢸⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⡟⠈⣿⣿⣿⡿⠆⠀⣠⠾⠻⢿⣿⣿⣿⠏⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣖⠀ ⢴⡈⠁⠀⠀⢠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⣻⣿⡿⢿⡙⡄⠂⣄⢶⣄⢈⠷⣯⡠⣮⡭⢨⡇⢸⡆⠙⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⣀⢰⡇⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⢿⡿⢶⠚⠛⠟⣀⡴⢿⠁⠘⠷⢾⣿⠙⠻⠀⠈⠛⠿⡿⣿⣯⠀ ⠀⠚⣁⡤⠶⠚⣋⢹⡏⠉⣽⣿⠛⠓⣦⣤⣀⠀⠀⣻⣿⣿⣾⢠⣶⣶⣦⣺⣿⠧⠀⢣⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢹⠀⢰⡄⢸⡇⠀⡿⠉⠃⠁⠀⣀⣀⣀⣤⣴⡚⠙⣧⠘⣷⣦⣄⠀⣯⠁⠀⢀⡀⡔⣠⡄⠈⠁⠀ ⠁⢴⣿⣤⡇⠀⣿⣿⡇⢀⣿⡇⠀⠀⠛⠁⠈⣷⡦⣘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣷⡃⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠘⠀⢸⣿⡀⠀⢐⣁⣴⣦⠶⢷⡿⠉⢠⡀⠙⣧⠀⢻⡆⢣⣈⣋⡴⠃⣰⣿⣿⣿⣶⠈⠑⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⠀⢿⣿⠇⠸⣿⠃⣧⢀⡴⠀⢸⣿⠃⢈⡛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⣠⠼⠟⠛⡟⠉⣤⡄⢹⡆⠀⣧⠀⠸⣧⠀⢸⡄⠈⢃⣸⢿⣥⣤⣀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣯⣴⣿⣿⣿⡄ ⠀⠈⣿⣿⠿⠒⠈⢉⣹⣿⣭⣽⣿⣾⣇⠀⣿⡏⠀⡘⢹⡄⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡋⠄⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠛⢿⡄⠈⠟⣷⣇⠀⢸⣿⡿⢷⠀⢹⣆⠀⠻⠄⣸⡿⢟⣋⠀⡸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⡻⣿⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇ ⠀⠀⣟⣡⠤⢶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣱⣿⡀⢰⣧⣿⣿⣿⣿⠈⢹⣿⠿⠤⢦⣶⣬⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣯⠀⢺⡄⢀⣧⠀⢠⣿⡟⣄⠀⠻⢃⣼⣇⣠⣿⣷⣶⡩⠉⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⢽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣎⣳⣿⡿⡿⣿⣿⠀ ⠀⠀⠚⠿⣷⠆⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣎⣿⣮⡙⢹⣿⣿⡇⠀⣾⡁⠀⠻⣀⣹⣿⣿⣿⡏⠁⢴⡀⠈⡄⠈⣦⠈⢻⣆⣈⣭⠖⠚⠙⠋⠉⣭⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⢣⣼⣿⣿⣟⠟⡀⢸⣿⣿⡉⠀⣼⠭⢠⣠⡀⠙⠊⠀ ⠀⠀⠄⠀⣴⣶⠷⠻⣿⣏⣉⣿⣿⣿⢿⠛⣏⣿⣧⢿⣿⣿⡿⠀⢸⡟⢻⣦⡀⠈⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠈⣤⣾⣷⠀⢻⡦⠒⠻⢿⣷⣾⣿⣿⣔⣦⣀⠉⢿⣿⣿⢯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠈⣵⠐⣿⣿⠿⣦⠀⠒⢪⣿⣛⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠘⡫⣾⣾⣧⡝⡿⣿⢿⣿⣿⠽⠊⠛⠸⣿⣞⣿⣿⠙⡒⢾⣷⠬⠉⣁⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⢿⣿⠿⠒⠁⣠⣴⣶⣿⣿⢿⣿⡿⣻⡿⠁⢠⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠛⠏⣠⠞⢀⣿⣿⠟⢏⠀⠀⢙⣿⣿⣧⠄⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠲⠽⠿⠟⠉⠀⠙⠂⢭⡭⠃⠀⠀⠀⠂⠈⠛⠊⠃⠀⠣⣜⢿⡆⠐⠥⢴⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠗⠚⠉⠀⠠⠒⠉⠀⠀⠙⠉⠛⠚⠛⠋⠉⠀⠀⢨⡿⠿⠿⠟⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠁⠉⠀⠈⠻⠷⠇⠙⠻⠋⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2086 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/Programming_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/Programming_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Programming Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 17, 2026 * ⚓ Ian Duncan ☛ The_Mathematics_of_Build_Queue_Optimization_and_Auto- Scaling⠀⇛ A deep dive into queueing theory and auto-scaling for CI/CD build fleets, exploring when and how to optimize build infrastructure for both cost and developer productivity. * ⚓ [Old] Simon Stewart ☛ We're_Going_to_Make_Out_Like_Bandits⠀⇛ Now, we also know that the tendency of the AIs isn’t to go and clean up code, reduce duplication, or focus on maintainability. Context windows (even the large ones!) can’t hold entire modern repos. They miss things. Most AI written code is additive, and is frequently duplicative. This is already happening. Machines have a higher “tolerance” for complexity than people, which means we can now bear higher complexity budgets and tech debt. That is, modern AIs tend to be very good at reading code and following the flow of control, often faster and better than people. However, “debugging is twice as hard as writing a program in the first place. So if you’re as clever as you can be when you write it, how will you ever debug it?” still holds true. At some point the tech debt and complexity will be so high even the AIs won’t be able to deal with it. We’ve already frequently blown past human levels of code complexity. This is already happening. * ⚓ LWN ☛ Woodruff:_You_shouldn't_trust_trusted_publishing⠀⇛ William Woodruff, better known online as "yossarian", has published a blog post to make the case that users should not place their trust in trusted_publishing: [...] * ⚓ R T Feldman ☛ How_Our_Rust-to-Zig_Rewrite_is_Going⠀⇛ For the past year and a half, the team building Roc's compiler has been rewriting our 300,000 lines of Rust code into Zig, for reasons I'll recap below. We recently passed an exciting milestone: feature parity with the original compiler! Since the Bun project recently shared an experience report of their rewrite in the other direction (from Zig to Rust, although that's only the tip of the iceberg of differences between our rewrites), this seems like a nice time to reflect on how our move from Rust to Zig is going. * ⚓ Remi Collet ☛ Remi_Collet:_🎲_PHP_version_8.4.24RC1_and_8.5.9RC1⠀⇛ Release Candidate versions are available in the testing repository for Fedora and Enterprise Linux (RHEL / CentOS / Alma / Rocky and other clones) to allow more people to test them.

Okay, perhaps I've overstretched the metaphor—what you need to know is that apparently Microsoft's Secure Boot was basically busted for the last decade. Rather than leftover bones in the broth, old system images could be exploited to bypass a system's motherboard-level protection to execute dubious code during system boot. It's bad enough that this effectively makes Secure Boot redundant, but worse still, any malicious firmware installed this way could then survive swapping out the hard drive or persist past reinstalling your operating system. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2284 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/Security_Leftovers_and_Windows_TCO.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/Security_Leftovers_and_Windows_TCO.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Security Leftovers and Windows TCO⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 17, 2026 * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Critical_Adobe_ColdFusion_Vulnerability_Exploited_in Attacks⠀⇛ Hackers are exploiting a recently patched critical vulnerability (CVE-2026-48282) in Adobe ColdFusion that carries a CVSS score of 10/10. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Critical_Gitea_Flaw_Under_Active_Exploitation, Researchers_Warn⠀⇛ Attackers are exploiting the critical Gitea vulnerability CVE- 2026-20896 to bypass authentication with a single HTTP header and access vulnerable repositories and secrets. * ⚓ OpenSSF (Linux Foundation) ☛ Navigating_The_OpenSSF_is_as_Easy_as Floating_Down_A_Lazy_River⠀⇛ Navigating the vast ecosystem of the Open Source Security Foundation (OpenSSF) is now as easy as floating down a lazy river.

A couple of hours ago (we are told that this is how it works) the media was formally told that the_appellant Daniel Pocock is included in the list of candidates. He was formally revealed to the media as a man who can replace toxic_politicians in Ireland. "This news is embargoed," he told me earlier this week, so "please do not mention it publicly until you see me mention it on my blog or the public announcement from the authorities tomorrow." Well, the news_is_out and we_decided_to_replicate_his_candidacy_announcement here as he has long been supportive of us and we wish to reciprocate. "The final deadline for nominations is 4pm on 17 July," he told me. "Shortly after the deadline, the Returning Officer will issue the full list of candidates to all the media." That's 2 hours ago. "Please consider having a blog post of your own ready to release about "Daniel Pocock", "Clacton-on-Sea by-election"." Noted. We're going to keep an eye on how he gets on as an independent candidate, which isn't easy (no recognition of party means policies are harder to decipher and campaigning budget is minuscule). We envision he'll soon do some media interviews and some Web pages will help bring exposure to his message. █ =============================================================================== Image source: Daniel_Pocock ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣛⣛⣫⣭⣤⣷⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣋⣉⣭⣤⢤⣴⣶⣶⣶⣶⢋⣀⣿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠛⠛⠿⣿⣿⣿⠇⣿⢿⣟⡁⠀⢸⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⣛⣛⣼⣛⣸⣻⣿⣿⣯⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⡿⠟⠈⠤⠬⡭⢨⣥⣬⣽⣭⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⠄⠒⠛⠗⣶⠿⢇⣒⣑⠀⢸⣿⣿ ⠿⠿⠟⠛⣛⣛⣉⡩⠭⠥⠤⢼⣿⣿⣿⢻⣿⡿⢯⣿⣿⣿⣿⠷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣤⣤⣄⠀⠀⠀⣀⡀⠀⠀⢠⣥⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⢾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠓⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣙⡛⣁⠀⢸⣿⣿ ⠀⣶⣷⠀⠀⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣤⣴⣦⣤⣴⣶⡶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠉⢻⡇⠀⠀⣸⣟⣿⣉⣉⣹⣿⣽⣿⡿⠿⠿⣿⢿⣿⠿⠟⠋⠃⢁⠶⣤⣍⣉⣩⣭⣌⣻⣽⠂⢸⣿⣿ ⠀⣿⣿⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣛⣡⣤⣤⡄⠀⠀⠀⢠⡧⠀⡀⠉⣻⣏⡉⠛⠉⣹⣦⡄⠁⠀⠠⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣇⣷⣶⣶⣾⣿⡿⢁⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⠿⢿⠋⠀⢸⣿⣿ ⢘⣿⣿⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣖⣺⣴⡶⠏⢉⣉⣉⣋⣟⠛⠃⠒⠂⠀⢸⠃⠀⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⣭⣭⣿⣃⣴⣒⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣩⣥⣴⣶⣷⣦⠀⢸⣿⣿ ⢸⣿⣿⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⣭⣴⣶⣶⣾⣿⡿⠿⣿⡿⠚⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣿⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⣿⠿⣿⣿⣧⢀⡀⣿⡿⠿⠟⠛⣥⣿⣟⡟⡛⢛⣛⣁⣩⣝⣋⣽⣉⣙⣛⡛⢻⣥⣼⣿⠻⠿⠿⠉⠀⢸⣿⣿ ⠈⣿⣿⡆⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢭⣵⣶⣶⣶⣿⣿⣷⡇⠀⠀⢸⡀⣿⣦⣿⣿⣿⣥⣤⣤⣿⣷⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⠘⣿⣿⣿⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣛⣷⠒⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠋⠙⢯⡧⢰⣶⣞⣹⣾⣟⣷⡄⠀⢸⣿⣿ ⡤⣿⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠘⠀⠀⢸⡇⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣠⣯⣀⣭⣥⣼⣿⣍⢉⣵⣶⣶⣶⡆⣠⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣼⣷⣤⡤⠀⢼⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⣿⣿ ⡇⢿⣿⣇⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣩⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⠿⣿⡿⠂⠀⣀⡘⠃⠀⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣭⣾⣿⣿⣿⠯⡟⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⠿⢿⡿⠿⠿⠛⠿⢿⠿⠿⠿⠻⠟⠋⠋⢘⡀⠚⢛⣹⡎⠄⠀⠀⣿⣿ ⡄⢼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⣶⣿⣾⣷⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠷⣼⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⠛⠛⠃⢿⣶⣤⣴⡾⠿⠶⠾⠿⠟⣶⣿⣿⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⡛⣛⣛⣓⣓⠓⣀⡀⠀⣿⣿ ⠀⢸⣿⡏⠉⣹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣷⣾⣾⣾⣾⣷⡆⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⣿⣿⣷⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠇⠛⠃⠀⣿⣿ ⠃⢸⣿⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣋⣙⣿⣉⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⠥⠄⠠⠤⠄⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣯⣭⣭⣯⣭⢋⣹⣿⣿⣋⣥⣥⣤⣌⠉⠉⠀⢠⣖⣶⠀⠀⣿⣿ ⡆⢸⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣛⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⠿⢿⡛⠿⠟⠛⠿⠟⢛⡟⢻⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⡿⣿⣿⣄⣀⡀⠾⣿⡿⠋⠀⣿⣿ ⡇⢸⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⢠⣭⣍⣉⡀⣀⣁⣈⣽⣟⣛⣫⣍⡁⠌⠘⡻⣿⣿⣦⣤⣦⠄⠀⣿⣿ ⡇⢸⣿⡇⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣭⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⣼⣿⣟⠛⢱⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠶⠾⠿⠿⢯⣉⣀⣀⠀⠀⣿⣿ ⡇⢸⣿⡇⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣾⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⠛⡽⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢏⣿⣿⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⣿⣿ ⡇⠸⣿⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣛⢻⡛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢩⠿⡿⠿⠿⠟⠻⠏⢙⣼⢿⡿⢿⣋⡙⣛⣃⣈⠁⠀⣿⣿ ⣗⣠⣿⣧⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠏⣉⠁⢰⡿⢿⢹⣿⣿⣧⠀⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⢟⣛⣛⣻⣿⠿⢿⠿⠴⢇⣨⣤⣀⣥⣴⣬⣿⣿⣿⠃⢿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⡿⠿⠿⠛⢛⣟⡁⣿⣿⠏⠀⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⠖⣤⢴⣿⠋⠉⣁⣀⣤⣀⣴⡄⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣰⣷⣿⣿⠃⠈⠿⠿⣛⣛⠉⠀⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣶⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⠸⠿⢿⣿⠀⠀⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⠟⢩⣼⣿⣿⣿⠿⣋⡀⣀⣤⣴⣶⣴⡼⡿⠀⠀⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢠⣆⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠗⠘⢃⣀⡀⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣤⡀⠀⠀⢢⣶⣽⡟⠃⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⡿⠿⢿⣿⡿⠿⢛⣙⣀⣀⠀⠄⠈⠉⠉⣴⡤⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠻⠰⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⡿⢍⠀⠀⢀⣐⡂⢹⠁⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢨⢀⡹⠷⠿⢿⣿⡿⠛⠓⠩⠶⠎⠛⣫⣥⣤⣄⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⢿⣿⢷⣶⣶⠶⠶⠂⠀⢀⠀⠖⢰⣿⣿⣿⡏⢸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠚⠛⠛⠿⠯⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⢤⠾⢹⣿⣿⣿⠇⠸⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣶⣶⣶⣶⠒⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠛⢋⢩⡄⠀⣿ ⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠛⠛⠛⠿⠿⠿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠺⠃⠠⠾⠿⢻⠄⣤⡀⢰⣿ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⣿⣛⣛⡿⠿⠀⣈⣠⠰⠦⠂⡄⠠⠘⢀⡁⣀⢰⠛ ⣿⣷⣶⣶⣦⣤⣄⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡿⠿⠛⠉⠉⡁⡿⠇⠀⣀⡀⢠⣐⣒⠀⠀⠶⠈⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⠟⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢀⣠⣴⡼⣿⣋⠉⣙⣹⣒⣦⣼⣤⣤ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⡤⢒⣲⣿⣿⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠀⠉⠙⠻⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣶⣶⣤⣤⡀⣨⣷⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2791 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/Technological_Sovereignty_FSF_Raising_Money_and_Paleoenshittifi.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/Technological_Sovereignty_FSF_Raising_Money_and_Paleoenshittifi.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Technological Sovereignty, FSF Raising Money, and Paleoenshittification⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 17, 2026 * ⚓ Evaluating_the_EU_Open_Source_Strategy:_Strengths_and_Weaknesses⠀⇛ A summary of my three-part analysis of the EU Open Source Strategy on Tagoross.

So for those who dig rhyming history, it’s tempting to make the analogy: MyTerms and the tools that support it are to the enshittifying web of today as the GNU licenses and tools were to Unix. But the rhyme needs to hang together. The GNU tools were initially distributed first on tape, then CD, in a convenient form for building and installing on existing Unix systems. The “autotools” that mystify the developers of today were a pragmatic response to the need to work with what’s there in order to get adoption. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2872 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/Today_in_Techrights.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/17/Today_in_Techrights.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Today in Techrights⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 17, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Hong_Kong_The_MacLehose_Trail_6⦈_ ⚓ Updated This Past Day⠀⇛ 1. ⚓ Microsoft_Whistleblowers_Explain_How_Brutal_the_Latest_Cull_is_(Layoffs in_Seconds-Long_Calls,_Mass_Elimination_of_Whole_Studios_and_High-Level Officials)⠀⇛ we see anonymous leakers or whistleblowers in the media today ⚓ New⠀⇛ 2. ⚓ Links_16/07/2026:_Slop_Recognised_as_a_Waste_of_Energy,_Hong_Kong Cracking_Down_on_Dissent/Opposition_Some_More⠀⇛ Links for the day 3. ⚓ GNU/Linux_Approaching_5%_"Market_Share"_in_Oceania,_Almost_Trebling_in 12_Months⠀⇛ It is difficult to ignore the gains made by GNU/Linux this month 4. ⚓ Gemini_Links_16/07/2026:_esp32-gemserv,_Slop-Contaminated_Free Software,_and_Moving_Systems⠀⇛ Links for the day 5. ⚓ Last_Summer_Microsoft_Mass_Layoffs_Came_in_Two_Large_Waves,_Rumours_Say Next_Week_Another_Large_Wave_is_Coming⠀⇛ If many more Microsoft layoffs are formally admitted next week we will not be surprised 6. ⚓ Tomorrow_is_Another_Strike_Day_at_Europe's_Second-Largest_Institution, the_Media_is_Still_Deliberately_Ignoring_It⠀⇛ Fridays are now recommended “anchor days" for EPO strikes 7. ⚓ Public_Interest_News_Foundation_Shows_News_Drought_or_News_Deserts_in the_United_Kingdom⠀⇛ Public Interest News Foundation shows that we should be deeply concerned 8. ⚓ Illusions_of_Choice⠀⇛ Choices can be differently bad or equally bad 9. ⚓ Windows_Down_to_10%_in_India⠀⇛ Windows is a "burning platform" 10. ⚓ One_Year_Has_Passed⠀⇛ Our aim is to repair an injured system wherein "abuse of process" can be turned into a weapon, leveraged even by foreigners who are funded by affluent third parties 11. ⚓ Techrights_is_Annoying_People_Who_Work_for_(and_Serve)_People_Who_Annoy (and_Abuse)_Society⠀⇛ Working against us (instead of with us) has historically been a bad strategy 12. ⚓ No_Skinnerboxes,_No_Slop,_No_False_Idols_or_Corporate_Prophets⠀⇛ Torvalds does not understand the everyday struggles of tech workers and tech users because he is a millionaire 13. ⚓ IBM's_Next_Stop:_$199_(Market_Cap_Already_Under_2.5_Times_IBM's_Debt)⠀⇛ Don't rush to call us "sensationalist" over it 14. ⚓ Links_16/07/2026:_Solar_Greenwashing_by_Energy-Wasting_GAFAM_and Growing_Concerns_About_Harm_by_Social_Control_Media⠀⇛ Links for the day 15. ⚓ Gemini_Links_16/07/2026:_Photography,_Agility,_and_"Today_I_have_Truly Become_a_Linux_User."⠀⇛ Links for the day 16. ⚓ Rebellion_Brewing_at_Microsoft⠀⇛ As always, we welcome Microsoft whistleblowers 17. ⚓ Technology_Against_Human_Nature⠀⇛ Losing a sense of what it means to be alive 18. ⚓ Over_at_Tux_Machines...⠀⇛ GNU/Linux news for the past day 19. ⚓ IRC_Proceedings:_Wednesday,_July_15,_2026⠀⇛ IRC logs for Wednesday, July 15, 2026 ========================================================================= The corresponding text-only bulletin for Thursday contains all the text.

A great deal of theory and engineering goes into making things like telephone lines and HDMI cables work, but we mostly just plug them in and get on with whatever we’re doing. * ⚓ Jason W Comeau ☛ Getting_Started_with_Anchor_Positioning⠀⇛ A common UI pattern on the web is having one element stick to another. Tooltips need to float above their targets, dropdown menus need to drop down from their triggers. It seems pretty straightforward, but the devil is in the details. We might want our tooltip to float above its target, but if that target happens to be right at the top of the viewport, it’ll overflow: [...] * ⚓ Kyle Reddoch ☛ Light_Self_Hosting_Behind_a_Reverse_Proxy⠀⇛ A self-hosted notes app or dashboard usually begins as a process listening on a local port. The risky step comes later: a router forward is added for convenience, an admin page is exposed along with the application, and nobody writes down which component renews the certificate or where the data is backed up. A reverse proxy improves that design by giving web traffic one managed entry point. It can terminate TLS and route notes.example.com to one internal service and status.example.com to another. It does not patch either application, strengthen their login systems, or make a public admin panel private. Those remain separate jobs. This guide is for a few services that one person or a small team can reasonably maintain. If the service handles regulated data, money, customer production workloads, or an availability commitment, the design needs more than a homelab checklist. * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ The_early_Research_Unix_exec(2)_argv_size limit⠀⇛ When you exec() something, you discard your current process's memory and address space to create create a new one for the new program. Your current (user) memory includes the argv you're passing to exec(), so the kernel has to copy it from your user space into the kernel and then back, temporarily holding it in some sort of kernel memory. In a modern kernel you might dynamically allocate this kernel memory in exec() through the kernel equivalent of malloc(), but the Research Unix kernels were simple and didn't have that sort of thing. Instead, through Research Unix V6, they got their temporary scratch space for exec() by allocating a disk buffer, reusing a facility the kernel already needed. These disk buffers were 512 bytes long, which is more or less where the 510 byte limit on argument size comes from. * ⚓ TecMint ☛ agentOS:_Run_AI_Agents_in_a_Secure_Linux_Sandbox⠀⇛ Since I didn’t want an AI agent running random shell commands directly on my production server, every task needed its own isolated environment.

Dull stuff, and it made a load of temporary files. So I dutifully dumped all the mess I made into the Recycle Bin and, when I was finished and returned to my own desk, I emptied the Recycle Bin. My colleague returned and he was furious. “Did you empty my Recycle Bin?” he fumed. “Yes,” I said, “Sorry; was that a problem?” * § Kernel Space⠀➾ o ⚓ SICP ☛ End_of_Line:_Replacing_MCP_with_Standard_Filesystem Tools⠀⇛ Properly designed, a filesystem is a hierarchical organisation of resources that allows for enumeration and filtering of those resources, and random access to their contents. In other words, pretty much anything that you can represent as a database with a collection of CRUD (Create, Retrieve, Update, and Delete) operations, you can represent as a filesystem. * § Graphics Stack⠀➾ o ⚓ It's FOSS ☛ Turns_Out_Wayland_Isn't_the_Input_Lag_Disaster Everyone_Says_it_is⠀⇛ A DIY click-to-photon tester puts X11, Wayland, VRR, and a DXVK fork to the test, with some surprising results. o ⚓ RX_9070_XT_vs_RTX_5080_Performance_Comparison_Windows_11_and Linux_in_2026⠀⇛ New comprehensive benchmarking across 14 games at 1440p resolution reveals the actual difference in gaming performance between Windows 11 25H2 and popular Linux distributions. A Ryzen 9 7900X3D processor and DDR5 6000MT/s CL32 RAM were used as the benchmark rig. To evaluate the interaction of graphics architectures with operating systems, video cards were selected. Radeon RX 9070 XT and GeForce RTX 5080. The results show that Windows 11 maintains its lead in average frame rate, but the depth of the performance drop on Linux varies significantly depending on the GPU manufacturer. * § Distributions and Operating Systems⠀➾ o ⚓ HaikuOS ☛ [GSoC_2026]_Midterm_progress_on_the_Devices application⠀⇛ Hello Everyone!

We kick things off with the most important usability addition. Earlier, users were stuck with the default toggle or push-to-talk bindings for recording audio during transcriptions. Now, it is possible to set keyboard shortcuts via the Settings menu, allowing you to create a diverse range of keybind combinations using the Ctrl, Alt, Shift, and Super keys paired with any letter or number key. Likewise, on GNOME's Wayland session, text injection is possible again when a bare XKB engine is configured, and whisper.cpp no longer defaults to using every CPU core on hybrid Intel and AMD laptops.

There is a match tomorrow night. If England can get 'bronze', it'll a consolation prize for Thomas Tuchel, as France is a very potent opponent. Tuchel will probably still be around in 2028 (Euros) and 2030 (next FIFA World Cup). His team did not deliver for him. It_could_do_a_bit_better. Klopp will navigate for Germany. Klopp is fantastic. █ =============================================================================== Image source: FIFA_World_Cup_Schedule ⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠭⡝⡛⡛⡟⡛⠿⣛⠟⠻⣿⣿⡇⠀⢰⣶⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣧⠄⢹⣤⠌⣟⡋⣤⠈⢃⣄⢹⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠉⠿⠿⢹⣿⣿⠩⠭⠛⢻⠟⡛⠉⣟⠻⠛⢻⠟⡋⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣿⣧⣧⣤⣥⣧⣤⣭⣤⣤⣿⣿⣇⣀⣸⣿⣀⣀⣿⣿⣿⣏⣒⣻⣁⣚⣟⣣⣙⣠⣌⣃⣼⣿⣿⣿⣲⣶⣀⣶⣶⣸⣿⣿⣬⣭⣼⣿⠬⢁⣤⣤⣤⣼⣿⣬⣥⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 3859 ➮ Generation completed at 02:50, i.e. 36 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
