Rather than viewing post- quantum cryptography (PQC) as a distant compliance box to check, we are actively leading the charge by embedding quantum- safe capabilities directly into the foundational layers of hybrid cloud infrastructure. This approach gives organizations the tools they need to protect their digital assets today while preparing for Q-day in the not-too-distant future. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Physical_AI:_When_machines_start_to_think_and_act_in the_real_world [Ed: Slop all day long from Red Hat]⠀⇛ In this second part, we go deeper. We look at why AI is such a transformative ingredient for robotics specifically, why edge computing isn't an optional add-on but a hard requirement, and how Red Hat helps organizations build the open, enterprise- grade foundation that makes physical AI possible at scale, without trading one form of vendor dependency for another. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Models-as-a-Service_(MaaS)_governance:_Managing_AI access_and_token_quotas [Ed: Slop as a disservice from IBM Red Hat, a rogue company]⠀⇛ Models-as-a-Service (MaaS), an integrated component of Red Hat Openshift AI, aims to give enterprises a flexible GitOps friendly way to set up their policy framework. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Why_prompt-level_guardrails_aren't_enough:_The platform_security_layers_production_agents_need [Ed: More and more slop from Red Hat]⠀⇛ I've seen teams react to failures like this by adding more checks inside the agent code—if-else blocks, hardcoded allowlists, manual credential rotation. That approach doesn't scale. When 3 failures hit a single AI agent deployment overnight—43 duplicate tickets, $4,000 charged to the wrong account, and a hallucinated refund policy that led to a $280 return the company had to honor—the common thread wasn't the model or the framework, it was the absence of production infrastructure. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 195 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Android_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Android_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Android Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Jul 22, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Gboard⦈_ * ⚓ Apple_CarPlay_needs_to_copy_this_new_Android_Auto_feature⠀⇛ * ⚓ I_built_the_perfect_Android_Auto_setup_for_road_trips⠀⇛ * ⚓ Google_Maps_On_Android_Auto_Is_Finally_Getting_A_Feature_Phones_Have Had_For_Years⠀⇛ * ⚓ Xiaomi_17,_17_Ultra_and_17T_Pro_are_getting_Android_17_now_-_Trusted Reviews⠀⇛ * ⚓ Android_17_QPR2_Beta_1_Is_Here_for_Pixel_6a_and_Newer_—_Here's_the_Full Changelog⠀⇛ * ⚓ Motorola_Android_17_Beta_Reaches_Moto_G57_Power,_Edge_70_and Signature⠀⇛ * ⚓ Google_teases_Q4_update_with_Android_17_QPR2_Beta_1_release⠀⇛ * ⚓ Gboard_rolling_out_M3_Expressive_redesign_of_shortcuts_on_Android⠀⇛ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡍⠛⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣷⣦⣤⣭⣙⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠛⠛⠛⠋⠉⠉⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠘⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠛⠛⠋⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠛⠛⠛⠛⠁⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⢿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠘⣿⣧⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣠⣤⣤⣦⡀⠻⢿⣿⣿⣄⠈⠿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⢰⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣠⣤⣤⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣅⣀⠬⠆⠀⠈⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⣀⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⠀⠀⠀⢀⣠⣶⣦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣀⣠⣤⣤⣶⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣀⣠⠤⠔⠓⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣀⣤⣤⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠦⠲⡂⠉⢢⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣄⠹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣀⣬⣦⣶⣿⣿⠿⠗⠀⢸⣦⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣯⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠛⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⣿⣿⣿⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⠉⢙⣿⣿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠛⠋⠉⠁⠀⣀⣀⣤⣌⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠘⠻⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡈⢯⠁⣐⣢⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠛⠋⠉⠁⡀⢀⣀⣦⣤⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣄⣦⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣠⣶⣿⣿⡷⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⠛⠉⠁⠀⠀⣀⣠⣤⣴⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠀⠙⠛⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠉⠀⠀⢀⣀⣤⣴⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠃⠀⢀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠿⠀⠀⠉⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠄⣶⠿⠛⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠟⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⡟⡔⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⠁⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 263 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Arch_Linux_Reviving_a_15_year_old_netbook_with_Arch_Linux_Colla.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Arch_Linux_Reviving_a_15_year_old_netbook_with_Arch_Linux_Colla.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Arch Linux: Reviving a 15-year-old netbook with Arch Linux Collabora Releases First 64-Bit Arm Arch Linux Packages⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 22, 2026 * ⚓ Adafruit ☛ Reviving_a_15-year-old_netbook_with_Arch_Linux⠀⇛ Simon Park still has a netbook bought back in 2009.

This coming weekend, on July 25th, it'll be an anniversary for the new system developed by our people. 4 years ago it officially went live (not just as a beta) and any further patching has since then been done directly on the live system. This current site is very simple and light, which makes it cheaper to run. Prior to the move, when we use a heavy Drupal setup, we relied on numerous machines (or containers) to handle things like the databases. No more. Keeping Tux Machines economic and agile is very important. █ =============================================================================== Image source: Lots_Of_British_Pound_Notes ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⢿⣿⣛⣟⠶⠃⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⣯⣿⣷⣿⠿⣐⠘⣔⡂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣯⡿⣿⣾⡽⣟⡓⠆⡇⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠁⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⣩⠿⠛⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣻⣿⣽⣿⣛⣷⣵⠕⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠠⣻ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡋⠀⢀⣾⢟⣿⡿⢛⣿⣿⣿⣡⠊⠀⠀⣠⠞⢉⣿⣟⡑⢩⣿⣷⡟⠁⠉⠛⠛⡛⠫⠿⣿⡼⡃⠀⠀⠒⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣡⣶⣿⣿⣿⠿⠃⢻⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⣠⡾⠃⣰⣿⣿⣦⣵⣿⠿⠋⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠜⠋⠀⠀⢀⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣯⣿⠟⣽⣿⡿⠛⣵⣶⡟⠋⠁⠀⣠⣾⡿⢁⣼⠏⠀⠉⠛⠿⠁⠀⡠⠀⠀⠐⢀⣠⣞⣤⡄⠀⣠⣼⠟⣙⢷⡄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣾⣿⣿⣿⠛⣠⣴⣿⡷⢪⡼⠋⣀⣾⡿⠋⠀⠀⢀⡴⠋⣼⣷⣾⢏⣠⣶⣤⣦⡀⣤⣨⠖⢁⣠⣄⢀⠽⠫⣨⣿⡿⠛⠄⢑⣤⣔⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢛⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡯⣠⣾⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⢀⣴⣿⠟⠀⠀⢀⡴⠋⣠⣾⣿⠟⠁⡀⢀⣾⣿⣿⣿⠟⣡⣴⣿⡿⠋⢀⣠⣾⣿⠟⡁⠀⠈⠋⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂⠁ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⠟⠋⠁⣨⠟⠁⠀⢀⡴⠋⢀⣼⣿⣿⠃⣠⠘⣡⣿⣿⣿⣿⣵⣾⣿⠟⠇⢠⣶⣿⣿⣤⡼⣧⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⡂⠀⠀⠀⠂⠀⡀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⡽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⢿⣵⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⡏⠀⢀⣼⣿⣢⣤⣶⡯⣄⣴⠋⣠⣿⡇⠀⣡⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠋⣂⣴⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡟⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢶⣤⠀⠀⢀⢀⠄ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠟⢫⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢁⣴⣿⢟⣵⣿⣿⣏⣴⣿⣿⣿⠟⠉⢡⣴⡿⠟⢋⡻⠛⠿⢻⣿⣶⣿⣿⡿⠿⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⡀⠠⡄⠠⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⢅ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣦⣾⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⣾⣿⣿⣿⡿⢛⣾⣿⣿⣿⡿⠁⠀⠀⢑⡿⠃⠐⠉⠐⢀⣠⣾⣿⡿⠟⠉⠀⠀⠀⡀⢠⠆⡤⠀⠠⠹⠀⠐⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣤⡙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⡖⢹⣿⣿⣿⠏⠀⠀⠀⣶⠙⠀⣀⣀⣤⣰⣬⡛⠃⠀⠁⠉⠀⣤⠔⠃⠀⠀⠈⠁⢀⣄⠐⣢⢕⠶⣶⣤⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⢼⣿⣿⣿⣆⣈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠿⣿⣇⠐⢘⢄⠀⢀⣠⡿⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠀⢓⢅⠿⡧⣌⡙⠳⣆⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⠀⠜⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣵⣿⣿⣿⠿⠟⢻⢛⠿⢿⣿⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣾⡈⠤⠟⠋⣁⠀⠀⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠀⠈⠀⠔⠈⢻⣷⣤⡈⠂⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠂ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⡿⠛⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣦⣄⠀⠀⠀⠹⣷⠀⠀⠀⠀⠠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠤⠀⠀⠐⠙⢿⣣⡶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⢿⣿⣷⣿⢶⡦⣌⣛⠿⣿⡛⢿⣿⣿⣦⣄⡀⠈⠨⡦⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡆⠄⠀⠀⡀⣀⡀⠤⠘⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣶⣟⣿⣧⡄⢅⡈⠙⠻⢿⣿⣷⣄⡙⢿⣄⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠉⢫⣦⠘⠟⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⣿⣿⣿⡷⣽⣿⣿⠆⢠⣙⠛⠻⢿⠎⢻⣷⣄⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⣠⠾⠋⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣿⣿⣿⣾⣿⣿⡿⣿⣛⣿⣧⠤⠅⢒⠀⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⢿⣿⣆⠀⠀⢠⡶⠋⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⠟⣯⣦⣿⡷⣷⠘⠓⣪⢕⣒⠖⢠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⢻⣿⣿⠗⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⣿⣿⣿⣫⡿⢿⣽⢿⢿⣿⠧⣿⠥⠷⠔⣦⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣽⣯⣧⣻⢯⣿⣿⣽⣿⣟⡞⠶⠞⠅⡀⢠⡤⠈⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣯⣿⣿⣷⣧⣽⣿⣿⣿⣷⢟⣥⠜⢡⠈⠨⠘⡀⠊⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 363 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Audiocasts_Shows_Linux_Matters_and_Fedora_s_Plug.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Audiocasts_Shows_Linux_Matters_and_Fedora_s_Plug.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Audiocasts/Shows: Linux Matters and Fedora's Plug⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 22, 2026 * ⚓ Linux_Matters_86:_Moodling_the_Fediverse_in_Europe⠀⇛ Martin is on a break, Mark leaves the country to conduct experiments with Moodle, and Alan buys a portable gaming device (not that one). * ⚓ Major Hayden ☛ Talking_about_impostor_syndrome_on_the_GR-OSS_OUT Podcast⠀⇛ When my good friend Jay Faulkner asked me to hop on the GR-OSS OUT_Podcast to talk about imposter syndrome, I jumped at the chance.

It creates a separate blurred layer behind each popup and keeps that layer perfectly aligned with the popup’s shape and position. This makes the popup look like frosted glass. The Popups Blur so far is available in the master branch, which will be probably released in next 73 version. And, it’s working good (though needs a few tweaks) in my case in Ubuntu 26.04, without notable performance cost. For more about the new Popups blur, see the pull request in the source page.

Blindly bothering every reachable computer was no longer viable once the network hit mainstream adoption. Based on my Internet Archive archaeology digs, this practice likely came to an end around the year 2003. Flood routing is a convenient half-truth we tell for the sake of moving an explanation along, like the time I told my son that semicolons in JavaScript are optional. * § Databases⠀➾ o ⚓ Crooked Timber ☛ A_big_thank_you_…⠀⇛ … to CT reader and commenter Dr Memory, who has cleaned up our database, eliminating many of the badly rendered quotation marks and similar problems. Those problems reflect the fact that the blog is now more than 20 years old, and has gone through multiple formatting systems. * § Productivity Software/LibreOffice/Calligra⠀➾ o ⚓ Document Foundation ☛ LibreOffice_State_of_the_Project_(July_2025 –_June_2026)⠀⇛ We are releasing the quarterly updated State of the Project Slide Deck, based on data from July 1st, 2025, to June 30, 2026, extracted from the LibreOffice dashboard and the Matomo repository. * § Content Management Systems (CMS) / Static Site Generators (SSG)⠀➾ o ⚓ Craig_Small:_WordPress_7.0.2_for_Debian⠀⇛ I have just uploaded WordPress version 7.0.2 for Debian. This fixes two serious security bugs CVE-2026-60137 and CVE-2026-63030. Chained together, this gives a RCE and is in active exploitation, so update as soon as its available. These two bugs are also in WordPress 6.9.x below 6.9.5 and the SQLi one (CVE-2026-60137) only is in 6.8.x below 6.8.6. Debian Sid and Forky have 7.0 which is vulnerable to the RCE while Debian Trixie has 6.8.x so only the SQLi. o ⚓ Kiwi_TCMS:_SiteGround_uses_Kiwi_TCMS_as_central_repository_of testing_knowledge⠀⇛ SiteGround is a technology company founded in 2004 that helps individuals, entrepreneurs, and businesses build and grow their online presence. Our goal is to provide customers with the tools they need to create, manage, and grow their online businesses from a single platform. Over the years, SiteGround has built a strong engineering culture focused on performance, reliability, innovation, and customer experience. * § Education⠀➾ o ⚓ Phil Gyford ☛ w/e_2026-07-19⠀⇛ Some others I went to were very information-dense, rather than entertaining, so unless you already knew something about the topic, or were otherwise really into the details of it, they were a bit hard going for me. But there are plenty more videos to browse through. o ⚓ Bertrand Meyer ☛ Questions_and_answers_on_AI_and_verification:_a follow-up_to_my_May_ACM_Tech_Talk⠀⇛ On May 7, I gave a well-attended ACM Tech talk on “Software Verification in the Age of Artificial Intelligence”. There were more questions at the end than I had the time to answer, but I promised the participants that I would answer everything. In the meantime I had to finish my book AI for Smarties: Understanding Artificial Intelligence, but now that it is out I am coming back to this discussion. Thanks for all the great questions! Yan Timanovsky, the organizer, provided me with the list of questions that had been written on the meeting chat and left unanswered. They are reproduced below. My plan is to provide answers — to those for which I can — over the next two or three weeks, so please come back once in a while. The questions contained the name and email of each questioner; I removed this information to preserve participants’ privacy. o ⚓ Jacob Nowosad ☛ A_world_still_to_be_mapped:_reflections_on geocomputation_in_R:_takeaways_from_the_talk_and_workshop_at_UseR! 2026_–_Thinking_in_spatial_patterns⠀⇛ At useR! 2026 in Warsaw, I contributed to a workshop on Geocomputation with R (July 6, 2026) and gave a keynote entitled A world still to be mapped: reflections on geocomputation in R (July 8, 2026). Both were opportunities to consider what the R spatial ecosystem already makes possible, its strengths, limitations, and what remains to be done. * § GNU Projects⠀➾ o ⚓ GNU ☛ parallel_@_Savannah:_GNU_Parallel_20260722_('Chat_Control') released_[stable]⠀⇛ GNU Parallel 20260722 ('Chat Control')  has been released. It is available for download at: lbry:// @GnuParallel:4 * § Openness/Sharing/Collaboration⠀➾ o § Open Data⠀➾ # ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Who’s_Building_That_Data_Center?⠀⇛ Whether you’re pro, against, or ambivalent about the proliferation of “AI” data centers, the map offers an engaging way to look at what projects are happening around the nation, especially when you start looking at clusters and how that interacts with the power generation and political makeup in a region. It’s particularly interesting how only three states account for roughly 70% of all the projects. Let us know if there’s a similar tracker in your area if you’re from one of the other parts of the globe! # ⚓ PoweredByWho ☛ Project_Map_—_PoweredByWho⠀⇛ Public-record reporting on the data centers reshaping American grids, communities, and elections. Independent, non-partisan, no paywall. # ⚓ Rlang ☛ Level_With_Me:_Can_the_WGI_Predict_the_WJP’s_Rule of_Law_Scores?⠀⇛ TLDR: The first post established that the WGI and WJP rule of law measures agree on how they rank countries. This follow-up tests the stricter question of whether the WGI can predict the WJP’s levels, rather than just the relative ranking / relative position of countries. It can: forecasting errors appear to be minimal and don’t vary significantly over time. This is second post in a series examining relationships between the rule of law and economic and social outcomes. * § Standards/Consortia⠀➾ o ⚓ Martin_Thompson:_Why_in_Building_Protocols,_Like_Code,_Starting Over_Is_Dumb⠀⇛ Today, the IETF held the CURRENT BoF, where the goal was to develop a new protocol. That protocol would be substantially like TLS, reusing its record layer and basic structure, but it would drop in MLS for key exchange. This is somewhere between a pretty bad idea and a horrible idea. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 756 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Fedora_Xfce_or_Xubuntu_Which_is_the_best_Linux_desktop.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Fedora_Xfce_or_Xubuntu_Which_is_the_best_Linux_desktop.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Fedora Xfce or Xubuntu: Which is the best Linux desktop?⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Jul 22, 2026 Quoting: Fedora Xfce or Xubuntu: Which is the best Linux desktop? | ZDNET — Xfce doesn't get enough love. I believe one reason is that the desktop environment typically defaults to a mostly old-school look and feel. Although Xfce tries to be modern, it lives in the shadows of desktops like COSMIC, Budgie, and KDE Plasma. For many who have yet to experience Xfce, one of the things you'll almost instantly discover is that it is one of the most flexible desktops on the market. There's almost nothing you can't do with it. If you like a traditional panel, you've got it. If you prefer a dock, Xfce can do it. Maybe a dock and a top panel? Sure. Two side panels? Heck, yeah. I've tweaked Xfce until it was like nothing I'd ever seen before on a PC desktop. This customization is fun.

In this series, I’ll put the Beelink mini PC through its paces from a Linux perspective, comparing it with other systems to see how it performs in real-world Linux use. The Beelink EQi Core 3 304 is a recent addition to Beelink’s EQ range of compact PCs. It’s built around Intel’s Wildcat Lake Core 3 304 processor, a 5-core, 5-thread chip comprising one performance core and four low-power efficiency cores. The processor integrates Xe3-LPG graphics and currently has a CPU Mark of 11,720. The review unit comes with 16GB of LPDDR5 6400MT/s memory and 512GB of UFS 3.1 storage, giving the system a capable hardware base for everyday desktop use, office work, media playback and lighter Linux workloads. In this article, I benchmark the Beelink EQi 304 across a range of tests, most of which are run using the Phoronix Test Suite. Together with the Beelink EQi 304, I’ve run the same benchmarks on a few other machines to put the results into context. Note the N100 machine is much cheaper than the other machines. It’s included simply to put the performance improvement offered by the higher-specification machines into perspective. * ⚓ Sitebrew_-_static_site_generator⠀⇛ Sitebrew is a static site generator.

Step into the boots of Raven, a young man gifted with psychic powers, held prisoner deep inside the temple of an alien priestess. His companion, Sci-Fi, has been captured too, and to reach her, Raven must survive the five Ordeals that stand between him and the Chamber. Wits alone will not be enough: you will need to master eight distinct psi-powers, from the humble Solar Eyes to the brutal Extreme Violence, to outsmart the strange creatures of this surreal, post-apocalyptic world. Originally developed in 1989 by the French label Exxos (ERE Informatique), with an art direction inspired by illustrator Philippe Caza, KULT is a genuine cult classic of European adventure gaming, remembered for its dreamlike atmosphere and its unusual, power-driven puzzles. * ⚓ Godot Engine ☛ Dev_snapshot:_Godot_4.8_dev_2⠀⇛ The cost of convenience? Nothing! * ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Valve's_Steam_Frame_pushes_Arch_Linux_toward_official Arm64_support⠀⇛ Valve and Collabora are building an Arm64 port of Arch Linux for the Steam Frame VR gaming platform, with hopes that the work will eventually feed into the upstream distro. Arch Linux has spawned a whole family of derivatives, but the official upstream distro targets 64-bit x86 and nothing else. As the homepage says: "Currently we have official packages optimized for the x86-64 architecture." Valve and Collabora would like to change that. The pair are developing an Arm64 port called Holo Core, initially as the foundation of the Steam Frame's operating system. * ⚓ Using_a_hypervisor_on_Linux_has_simplified_the_launch_of_Denuvo- protected_games.⠀⇛ Linux users actively use hypervisor technologies to bypass Denuvo protection in modern games. This method allows complex games to run without compromising overall system security or disabling driver digital signature verification. Many games require the latest versions of game clients and regular hypervisor updates to run correctly. Some games fail to launch on older system builds, while updated versions ensure stable launches. * ⚓ You_Can_Play_Epic_And_GOG_Games_On_Your_Steam_Machine_-_Here's_How⠀⇛ While the Steam Machine is an expensive device, it is still cheaper than buying a high-end gaming PC. Plus, you can play all your games on your TV. However, you are limited to Steam's library. What if you want to play "Alan Wake 2" or "Genshin Impact?" Either use a different console or install a special (and free) app on the Steam Machine. While the Steam Machine looks like a cross between an Xbox Series X and a Nintendo GameCube, at its core, the platform is little more than a computer running on Linux instead of Windows. It uses a custom Linux operating system known as SteamOS, but it is a Linux machine nonetheless, which means you can install apps that let you sideload programs (install them from outside the official app store), specifically games in your Epic and GOG libraries. The most popular of these is the Heroic Games Launcher. This program is an open-source launcher that collects your game libraries under one digital roof. * ⚓ A_way_to_run_Denuvo_games_through_a_Linux_hypervisor_on_Ryzen processors_in_the_AM4_socket_has_been_discovered.⠀⇛ Linux users are discussing a method for bypassing Denuvo anti- piracy protection using a hypervisor on an AMD Ryzen 5 5600X processor. The main problem with using this method on Zen 3 socket AM4 processors is the lack of instruction activity. CPUID in user space. Due to this hardware feature of previous generations of chips, running protected video games requires additional operating system settings. To solve this problem, owners of AM4 socket platforms need to add a special command to the Linux kernel bootloader. This action enables processing of the necessary instructions in user mode without a complete system rebuild. Combined with custom builds of the Proton GE tool, this method allows for the successful launch of protected games and concealment of the hypervisor from built-in verification systems. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1195 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Games_GameStream_Game_Theory_RPG_GRAFT_and_More.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Games_GameStream_Game_Theory_RPG_GRAFT_and_More.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Games: GameStream, Game Theory, RPG 'GRAFT', and More⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 22, 2026, updated Jul 22, 2026 * ⚓ Moonshine_-_Turn_your_headless_Linux_server_into_a_game_streaming host⠀⇛ NVIDIA pulled the plug on GameStream, its in-house system for streaming games from your PC to a Shield or a laptop. But the protocol itself isn't dead: Moonlight , the open-source client that reimplements it, still runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, Steam Link, Raspberry Pi 4, Apple TV and Xbox, and even on Switch and Vita via homebrew. And more importantly, since early 2024 Hans Gaiser has been tinkering on the missing piece for the server side: Moonshine , which is starting to become seriously usable. * ⚓ Seek_the_Surface_in_Sci-Fi_Thriller_Visual_Novel_Advent:_Dawn_on_PC, Mac,_Linux_Today⠀⇛ Advent: Dawn, the psychological sci-fi mystery visual novel about seven strangers trapped beneath a remote island, developed by Spire Games, emerges from the depths onto PC, Linux, and Mac via Steam Today. * ⚓ Harvard University ☛ Shared_fandom_is_social_‘medicine’⠀⇛ By contrast, Rogers and Feldman found, the reddest NFL fanbase (the Tennessee Titans) is still politically diverse, with two registered Republicans for every Democrat, while the bluest — the Chargers of Los Angeles — is roughly the inverse. And — as anyone knows who’s ever watched a game in a packed stadium or bar — shared fandom can serve as an instant de- polarizer. In a paper currently under review, Rogers and Feldman applied game theory to test the effects. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Harebrained_Schemes'_new_survival_horror_RPG_'GRAFT' gets_a_story_trailer_|_GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ Harebrained Schemes are working towards release on their next game following their split from Paradox Interactive, with the survival horror RPG 'GRAFT'. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ MXGP_26_revealed_with_a_new_gameplay_trailer_| GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ A fresh start for the motorcycle racing series, MXGP 26 has been revealed and there's a trailer to go along with it. There's been quite a few entries in the series, some good and some not-so-good - hopefully this will be a return to form for fans of racing sims. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Mount_-_Blade_meets_Total_War_in_the_upcoming_pixel-art Sword_&_Banner_|_GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ Sword & Banner captured my eye recently as a pixel-art game that's Mount & Blade meets Total War and the gameplay looks like a lot of fun. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ How_to_get_SteamOS_to_always_boot_into_Desktop_Mode_| GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ If you want your SteamOS Linux machine like the Steam Deck or Steam Machine to automatically boot into Desktop Mode - that is actually possible. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Acer_Predator_Atlas_8_Handheld_with_Intel_Arc_G3_gets UK_pricing_and_launch_month_|_GamingOnLinux⠀⇛ The Acer Predator Atlas 8 Handheld now has a price and expected launch month, for the UK at least.

It's so new that it's still not listed on the GNOME Extensions website – at the time of writing, it's still under review. We built it and installed it, and it works. This single extension merges GNOME's built-in panel (across the top of the primary screen) and what it calls the "dash" – the icon bar down the left side – into a single taskbar, styled like Windows 11: icons centered, a Start menu with columns, a search box, and so on. The handy feature here is to have all this in a single, integrated extension. There are already other extensions to do some of this, such as Dash to Panel, whose development is now sponsored by Zorin OS. It doesn't provide a Start menu replacement, though. For that, you need another extension, such as Arc Menu.

I have installed a random PPA because some forum comments from 2018 sounded confident. I have removed a package that looked useless, only to discover it was holding the login screen together with tape and ancestral prayers. Not only that, but I upgraded at midnight, watched the system return with a black screen, and then pretended this was “learning” (copeeee!). Fixing those problems taught me plenty about Linux, but it also stole time from the work I actually wanted to do. That is what pushed me toward atomic desktops. I chose Fedora Silverblue because it has become one of the best-known implementations of the idea (also because Fedora is my daily driver). After using it for a while, I realized it changes something fundamental about how you maintain a Linux machine.

The desktop shell (Plasma) and having a strong base to distribute it (KDE Linux) obviously comes to mind, but it’s also about the Personal Information Management (PIM) space. Nowadays a good chunk of the institutional life (public or otherwise) is to deal with email, contacts and calendars. So we set sail to strengthen Kontact, KMail, Korganizer and friends. More specifically, we want to strengthen its underlying infrastructure: Akonadi and its resources. So what exactly are we working on currently?

The problem is now solved. * ⚓ NetBSD ☛ Google_Summer_of_Code_2026_Reports:_Testing_Compat_Linux: Syscall_testing⠀⇛ This report was written by Henrique Brito as part of Surveillance Giant Google Summer of Code 2026. NetBSD is capable of executing GNU/Linux compiled binaries through a thin, in-kernel translation layer, compat_linux, which, among many other things, is responsible for ‘capturing’ the syscalls made by the program and calling a stub, which is responsible for generating the expected output and behavior. Generally this stub ends up calling the NetBSD version of the syscall and translating the results in a way a GNU/Linux program would expect. Sometimes it has to do more work. * ⚓ FreeBSD ☛ BSDCan_2026_Trip_Report_–_ShengYi_Hung⠀⇛ I’m really grateful to the FreeBSD Foundation for sponsoring my trip to BSDCan 2026 in Ottawa. The conference ran for four days — two days of DevSummit, then two days of the main conference, with many interesting talks throughout. * ⚓ FreeBSD ☛ BSDCan_2026_Travel_Report_–_Patrick_McEvoy⠀⇛ The June 2026 FreeBSD DevSummit & BSDCan was again successfully recorded and streamed through longtime streaming sponsor ScaleEngine.

Complete release notes are as follows: [...] * ⚓ Nate Graham ☛ Legal_obligations_vs_social_contracts⠀⇛ My post about responsibility for bug reports on old software versions the other day stirred up quite some discussion, and I wanted to drill a bit more into what I think is the crux of the dispute: the difference between legal obligations and the social contract. When you package and distribute free open source software (FOSS), you legally have to comply with the terms of the license: “make the source code available,” “don’t change the license,” and so on. You might also notice the absence of a warranty, or silence about responsibility for bug reports. So let’s return to the question: [...] * ⚓ Niall Murphy ☛ Software_Failures:_What_We_Believe⠀⇛ Being professionally interested in questions of software reliability, we have often wondered whether or not we can find good models to help explain, characterise, or predict failure. The industry doesn’t have much in the way of such models today. What we have is practitioner’s intuition, and it’s often the best thing we do have, but it’s hard to know if it’s the best thing we could have. In the act of reflecting on this question, we realised that there isn’t a good source that documents precisely what that intuition actually says. The rest of this document is an attempt to do that. * ⚓ Rlang ☛ Little_useless-useful_R_functions_–_Jug_solver_with_Bezout’s Identity⠀⇛ We all were presented with this problem – water jug problem, which – in the time of Football world cup 2026 – can be translated to any liquid. *hint hint* But the riddle is as logical as mathematical. With mathematics finding the greatest common divisor. In general, it can be used with state search or Depth First Search (DFS). * ⚓ Andrew Nesbitt ☛ –end-of-options⠀⇛ I was reading through the fix for a package manager CVE last week and ran into a git flag I’d somehow never noticed: --end- of-options. My first reaction was that some LLM had hallucinated it, but it’s documented in gitcli(7), it was added in git 2.24.0 in November 2019, and it exists because git had already used -- for something else. In most Unix tools -- marks the end of option parsing, so rm - - -f removes a file called -f rather than passing the force flag. Git had repurposed -- early on to separate revisions from pathspecs, because git log foo on its own is ambiguous between a branch named foo and a file named foo and one of the two readings needed a marker: git log main -- README.md means commits on main touching that file. That left the revision position with no terminator, so if a script runs git log "$rev" and $rev starts with a dash, git parses it as an option. * ⚓ L-Labs ☛ Why_l.⠀⇛ Twenty-five years with k and q. I did not want a new language. I wanted to rebuild the engine underneath it. * § Perl / Raku⠀➾ o ⚓ Olaf Alders ☛ How_to_Deprecate_a_CPAN_Module⠀⇛ You may have noticed that the CPAN Security group recently got funded by Alpha-Omega to work on further securing the Perl and CPAN ecosystems. This means that A LOT OF CVEs are currently being issued. Since the group is not the arbiter of which modules are still in use (and this is largely an unknowable problem), there will be CVEs published for modules which probably can simply be deprecated. Deprecating a module on CPAN is not as simple as pushing a button, so let’s run through what’s actually involved. The key thing to know here is that to deprecate a module you have to upload a deprecated version. This may seem counter-intuitive because uploading a new archive makes it look like the module is still under development, but none of this is going to change anytime soon. File it under “historical reasons” and get on with your day. * § Python⠀➾ o ⚓ John D Cook ☛ Forensic_statistics_in_Python⠀⇛ I recently had a project in which I had to reverse engineer a data analysis. There was some ambiguity regarding which of several possibilities someone chose for several of the variables, something analogous to the following example. Suppose you have three numbers with uncertain values with a known, or at least purported, sum. The first number could be 31, 41, or 59; the second could be either 26 or 53; the last could be 58, 97, 93, or 23. o ⚓ Julia Evans ☛ Some_more_things_about_Django_I've_been_enjoying⠀⇛ So here are some Django features that make building this kind of site feel more achievable than when I was trying and failing to use Go’s standard library or Flask. And I’ll talk about a couple of issues with Django I’ve run into. * § Shell/Bash/Zsh/Ksh⠀➾ o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Tired_Of_Xargs?⠀⇛ What if you want to do something in Linux for a lot of files? [Numerator] was tired of using xarg and other ways to handle this job and created bashumerate. Some examples in the post of the “other ways” include: [...] o ⚓ Michael Kjörling ☛ On_Linux,_waiting_for_a_non-child_process_to exit⠀⇛ That generally works well for processes already started in the background, but in the case of wanting to wait on an already-started process, possibly involving a complex pipeline, a long-running or otherwise expensive process or multiple processes that donʼt deal well with being interrupted, adding the wait from within the existing shell can be tricky. * § Java/Golang⠀➾ o ⚓ Kevin McDonald ☛ Beating_Go's_encoding/json_with_Schema-Guided ProtoJSON⠀⇛ ProtoJSON sits in an awkward place. It gives Protobuf- backed APIs a JSON representation that human operators, browsers, API gateways, and debugging tools can work with, but Go’s official protojson implementation pays heavily for this generality. To resolve field names, enum values, presence semantics, and message structure at runtime, it has to walk message descriptors using Protobuf reflection (protoreflect) and allocate intermediate values. This is the right tradeoff for correctness and compatibility. But it made me wonder: how much of this cost is fundamental to ProtoJSON, and how much comes from repeatedly resolving schema mappings at runtime? o ⚓ Alexandru Nedelcu ☛ On_Performance,_GCs_and_Rust⠀⇛ Programming platforms like Java, .NET or Go use tracing garbage collection. This is a form of automatic memory management that delays the deallocation of unused objects. When it comes to memory allocation, GC-managed languages can achieve excellent throughput, better actually than what your average C/C++ developer can achieve, especially if they use malloc. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2554 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Raspberry_Pi_Launches_10_Inch_Raspberry_Pi_Touch_Display_2_at_8.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Raspberry_Pi_Launches_10_Inch_Raspberry_Pi_Touch_Display_2_at_8.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Raspberry Pi Launches 10-Inch Raspberry Pi Touch Display 2 at $80⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Marius Nestor on Jul 22, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇Raspberry_Pi_Touch_Display_2⦈_ Raspberry Pi Touch Display 2 was already available in 5-inch and 7-inch variants, and, as of today, you can also get it in a 10-inch variant featuring an IPS TFT true multi-touch capacitive panel that supports ten-finger touch, 24-bit RGB, and a 1200×1920-pixel resolution.

The move comes less than a month after researchers found that more than 42 percent of games and other apps available for download on LG’s webOS store allow unknown third-parties to route their Internet traffic through a user’s TV. * § Open Hardware/Modding⠀➾ o ⚓ Bootlin ☛ Updated_Yocto_support_for_SiFive_RISC-V_platforms⠀⇛ Bootlin has been maintaining Freedom-U-SDK (FUSDK), a Yocto/OpenEmbedded-based software development kit for RISC-V platforms from SiFive, in collaboration with SiFive since 2022. o ⚓ CNX Software ☛ NVIDIA_increases_the_price_of_Jetson_modules_and devkits_by_up_to_101%⠀⇛ A few months ago, NVIDIA phased out several Jetson modules due to high LPDDR4 prices, and now the company has decided to increase the prices on all its Jetson modules and developer kits by up to 101%. There was no specific announcement about the price, but the updated prices are available in the FAQ on the NVIDIA developer website. This was initially spotted by a reader at VideoCardz, and the table below shows the old and new prices, as well as the percentage increase. The table above is sortable. The highest price increases in percentage terms are for the Jetson Nano module (101% from $99 to $199) and the Jetson AGX Orin 32GB module (100% from $899 to $1,799). The Jetson Nano module is still the cheapest option, and the most powerful and expensive part is the Jetson AGX Thor Developer Kit. o ⚓ Arduino ☛ A_smart_solar_panel_system_you_can_3D_print,_build,_and learn_from_–_with_the_Arduino®_UNO™_Q_board⠀⇛ Solar energy is one of the most important technologies of our time, and understanding how it works can be… enlightening! Julián Caro Linares, Senior Field Technology Evangelist at Qualcomm Europe, built a project that helps learn about this topic with a hands-on approach: [...] o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Open_Source_Vacuum_Avoids_Cloud⠀⇛ As more and more of the technology that we paid for turns becomes a subscription, there’s slowly been a momentum shift in the open source world of building replacements for these intrusive rent-seekers. We see this all of the time for self-hosted media and communications servers, but now we’re starting to see it in hardware as well. The OOMWOO robotic vacuum cleaner is completely open source, from hardware to software, and requires no cloud services whatsoever. o ⚓ Hackaday ☛ Giving_Resin_3D_Printers_Another_Shot_After_Six Years⠀⇛ My initial experience with a 3D printer came in 2020, when I got access to a buddy’s Creality LD-002R SLA printer. This was one of those awkward transition phases for SLA printers, where inefficient RGB LCDs finally got replaced by monochrome LCD panels, thus massively reducing the required exposure time and increasing the LCD panel’s lifespan. o ⚓ peppe8o ☛ Compute_Module_vs_Standard_Raspberry_Pi:_Discover_The Hidden_Reliability_Gap⠀⇛ When selecting a single-board computer (SBC) for 24/ 7 industrial deployments, edge computing, or critical IoT infrastructure, raw performance is only half the equation. The other – often decisive – half is reliability. o ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Avalue_RIVAR-1539_is_a_15.6-inch_fanless industrial_panel_PC_powered_by_an_defective_chip_maker_Intel_N150 Twin_Lake_processor⠀⇛ Avalue Technology has introduced the RIVAR-1539, a 15.6- inch industrial fanless panel PC powered by the defective chip maker Intel N150 quad-core Twin Lake processor. The system features a Full HD projected capacitive touch display, dual Gigabit Ethernet, four USB 3.0 ports, and an IP65-rated front panel. The all-in-one POS terminal is designed for edge computing and HMI applications, such as self-ordering kiosks, smart counters, digital signage, and queue management systems across retail, healthcare, and public service environments. o ⚓ Raspberry Pi ☛ AI_Projects_with_Raspberry_Pi_—_out_now!⠀⇛ This is the spirit behind our latest book: AI Projects with Raspberry Pi. This is a hands-on guide to discovering real-world AI applications with Raspberry Pi hardware. These aren’t toy demos, but rather projects you can build, run, and point to and say, “I made that”.

Tux Machines came under SLAPPs (lawfare) over 2 years ago, just months before it turned 20. That didn't hurt the site, it only made it more popular. We've meanwhile seen politicians who want to crack down on SLAPPs appointed to the new cabinet and this_new_report_on_legal_regulation_reform_from_the_Legal Services_Consumer_Panel says abolish the SRA and BSB.

howtos⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 22, 2026 * ⚓ TecMint ☛ Prometheus_TSDB:_Manage_Data_Storage_and_Retention_on_Linux⠀⇛ In this chapter, you’ll learn where Prometheus stores its data, how to configure data retention, how TSDB compaction works, and how to create and restore database snapshots on Linux using Prometheus. * ⚓ OSTechNix ☛ Application-Level_Firewalls_Explained:_A_Beginner's_Guide⠀⇛ If your web browser, terminal, and music player all try to access the Internet at the same time, should they all be treated the same way? A traditional firewall usually focuses on the network connection itself. An application-level firewall asks a different question: Which application is making this connection, and should it be allowed? That small shift in perspective changes how you think about firewall rules and gives you much finer control over your system. By the end of this guide, you'll understand: [...] * ⚓ Chris ☛ Kuiper_Q-Q_plot:_are_these_the_same?⠀⇛ In case you know the drill already, just paste your data into the tool and get on with your life. I wish I had made this long ago! That tool shows a q-q plot for visual comparison, it computes Kuiper’s test statistic, and has a handy reference table for significance thresholds. It lets you choose between multiple theoretical reference distributions. Or you can input your own reference distribution, either as an empirical distribution function known exactly, or a reference sample with embedded uncertainty. The theoretical reference distributions that support it come with aic values for model selection. * ⚓ Kyle Reddoch ☛ Security_Logging_at_Home_Without_Overbuilding⠀⇛ The fastest way to make home security logging useless is to collect everything first and decide why later. A dashboard fills with router chatter, DNS queries, web requests, and routine sign-ins. Nothing has an owner, normal activity has never been defined, and the whole project becomes something to ignore. * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ Making_sense_of_diskless_workstations_through two_models_of_them⠀⇛ One answer is that diskless workstations were not infrequently used in situations where there was no 'ROI' as such, for example for use by university graduate students (generally not in dedicated offices, unless you were very lucky, but instead in shared in terminal rooms). But in my view, a deeper answer is that there are two usage models of diskless workstations. * ⚓ SecretSpec ☛ Secrets_Don’t_Belong_in_Config⠀⇛ These mechanisms are not equally safe: environment variables can be inherited, arguments can appear in process listings, and files still need correct permissions. What separation does guarantee is that the deployer no longer has to manufacture a second, secret-bearing version of the configuration. The principle is simple; implementing it across environments is not. Local development might use a system keyring, CI environment variables, and production 1Password or Vault. Without a shared abstraction, each environment needs its own naming, lookup, validation, and injection glue. * ⚓ Linuxize ☛ lsusb,_lspci,_and_lshw:_List_Hardware_in_Linux⠀⇛ Identify the hardware in a GNU/Linux machine: list USB devices with lsusb, find PCI cards and their drivers with lspci, and get a full inventory with lshw. * ⚓ Linuxize ☛ head_Cheatsheet⠀⇛ Quick reference for showing the first lines or bytes of files and limiting command output with head in Linux * ⚓ Linux Handbook ☛ Git_Pull_Kept_Failing_on_My_Ghost_Server._Docker Compose_Override_Fixed_It⠀⇛ Modifying your docker-compose.yml directly and now git pull throws a "local changes would be overwritten" error? Use a compose.override.yml file to keep your changes separate from the file Ghost's repo manages. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 3702 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/_Ubuntu_Certified_and_Canonical_Breaking_Things_in_Ubuntu_for_N.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/_Ubuntu_Certified_and_Canonical_Breaking_Things_in_Ubuntu_for_N.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ "Ubuntu Certified" and Canonical Breaking Things in Ubuntu for No Good Reason⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 22, 2026 * ⚓ OMG Ubuntu ☛ Ubuntu_26.10_will_add_Ubuntu_Certified_checking_to Settings⠀⇛ Wondering if your laptop or desktop PC is Ubuntu Certified? Ubuntu 26.10 is adding a new way to check from the Settings app. A new row in Settings > System > About reads “check if this computer is Ubuntu Certified”. Clicking it opens a new page that will read the local/cached status from the com.ubuntu.hwctl service (the Canonical hardware API introduced in 2025). Ubuntu’s has had a command-line way to check certification for a while, using hwlib. In 26.10 (Stonking Stingray), you’ll be able to check it via Settings rather than through terminal command. * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ Ubuntu_26.04_has_broken_shutdown_announcements and_wall_doesn't_work⠀⇛ Surprisingly, these turn out to be two separate issues. The wall issue is because starting in Debian 13 ('Trixie') and Ubuntu 25.10, the Debian and Ubuntu systemd is built without support for /var/run/utmp (aka /run/utmp), the traditional file recording who is logged in where; wall (which comes from the 'bsdutils' package) only looks in the utmp file. If there's no utmp file, wall is never going to do anything. If you need a wall equivalent, you'll need to write a script that gets the list of active user sessions with ptys and writes a message to them itself. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 3751 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Web_Browsers_Web_Servers_Feed_Readers_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/07/22/Web_Browsers_Web_Servers_Feed_Readers_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Web Browsers/Web Servers/Feed Readers Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jul 22, 2026 * ⚓ Chris Hardie ☛ How_far_I'll_go_to_make_an_RSS_feed_of_your_website⠀⇛ Or even worse, you have played some role in designing or building a tool or service that other people use to publish timely content on the Internet, and you unforgivably allowed it to ship without support for RSS feeds. And you probably just assume that a few remaining RSS feed nerds out there are just quietly backing away in defeat. “They’ll just have to manually visit the site every day if they want updates,” you rationalize. “They can download our app and get push notifications instead,” you somehow say with a straight face.
