Fedora Won, Mostly — PhoneBuff is a company that built its name by offering lab-tested, standardized reviews for smartphones run by robotic hands. Their YouTube channel showcases a range of assessments that cover speed tests, drop tests, and battery tests. When viewers started poking them about trying Linux after a recent performance comparison they did between a Dell XPS 13 and MacBook Neo, they responded. Taking two identical Dell XPS 13s with an Intel Core 5 320 and 8GB of RAM, one on Windows 11 and one on Fedora, the PhoneBuff crew ran the same real-world apps and workflows on each, timed by their robot mouse and keyboard (aka the clanker in question). By the time testing concluded, Fedora won six of eleven timed tests while four tied, and Windows 11 took home a single win.

seems like it would be interesting and help streamline my work. It's never a bad idea to expand your software horizons. So I checked out an app called Albert to see if it could improve my workflow. * ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ CoolerControl_app_for_Linux_v5.0_brings_a_big overhaul⠀⇛ Managing various types of coolers under Linux has never looked sleeker! The latest CoolerControl v5.0.0 release is out now. What exactly is it? CoolerControl is an open-source application for monitoring and controlling supported cooling devices on Linux. It features a system daemon with a built-in Web UI, an optional desktop app, and a comprehensive REST API. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 299 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/09/08/Audiocasts_Shows_This_Week_in_Linux_Rubenerd_Show_and_Late_Nigh.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/09/08/Audiocasts_Shows_This_Week_in_Linux_Rubenerd_Show_and_Late_Nigh.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Audiocasts/Shows: This Week in Linux, Rubenerd Show, and Late Night Linux⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 08, 2026 * ⚓ Tux Digital ☛ This_Week_in_Linux_356:_CERN_to_Debian,_Audacity_4, OpenShot_4,_30,000_Steam_Games,_Age_Verify_Exemption_&_more_GNU/Linux news⠀⇛ This week in Linux, CERN makes some GNU/Linux news revolving around Debian, lawmakers are giving open source a way out of OS-level age verification … well in California, and Ubisoft found away to make GNU/Linux gaming news frustrating right at the same time as we hit a huge milestone for GNU/Linux gaming. * ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ Rubenerd_Show_432:_The_pontification_episode⠀⇛ * ⚓ Late_Night_Linux_–_Episode_402⠀⇛ Audacity’s new major release makes it more like a proper digital workstation, Debian finally gets off the genAI fence and disappoints some of us, California exempts GNU/Linux from terrible age verification laws, and Asahi boots on M3 Macs.

Radeon RX 9060 XT running operating systems Windows 11 and CachyOS based on the Linux 7.2.2 kernel with the MESA 26.2.2 graphics stack. Performance measurements were conducted in eleven modern gaming titles at a resolution of 1440p. Based on all benchmarks, the average frame rate was Windows 11 achieved 104.4 FPS, providing a 1.9% advantage over CachyOS's 102.5 FPS. The geometric mean also recorded a minimal 1.5% gap in favor of the Microsoft system, which achieved 101.7 FPS versus 100.2 FPS on the Linux distribution. * ⚓ Windows_11_Finishes_Last_in_60%_of_75_Benchmarks_Against_Linux,_Real- World_Tests_Confirm⠀⇛ The claim that "Linux runs lighter and faster than Windows 11" has circulated in desktop OS communities for years. Yet much of that discussion has rested on subjective impressions or isolated one-off benchmarks. While some users praise the smoothness of everyday file operations and app launches on Linux, others counter that "Windows is better optimized for gaming and certain applications," and the debate has never really been settled. Now, an exhaustive 75-item lab benchmark suite from Phoronix, combined with precise real-world workflow testing using a robotic arm, has brought objective, measured data to this long- running argument. The results: Windows 11 finished dead last in 45 of the 75 tests—60% of the total—while claiming first place in a mere 8% of tests. Behind what's often dismissed as mere "preference" or "feel," what engineering divide actually separates these two operating systems' architectures? Let's unpack the structure behind the measured data. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 399 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/09/08/Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Software.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/09/08/Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Software.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Best Free and Open Source Software⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Sep 08, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇hcxtools_⦈_ * ⚓ hcxtools_-_Analyze_Wi-Fi_Capture_and_Hash_Files⠀⇛ hcxtools is a collection of Linux command-line utilities for processing wireless packet captures and authentication data. It is intended for protocol analysis, password-audit preparation and authorised wireless security assessments. The suite converts captured traffic into formats understood by password-auditing applications, but does not itself perform password cracking. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ Yutovo_-_visual_calculator_and_mathematical_text_editor⠀⇛ The application is aimed at everyday, educational and engineering mathematics. Its WYSIWYG approach makes expressions easier to read than calculator input based on plain text, while the integrated editor means calculations can form part of a larger set of notes or working. Yutovo can also recalculate expressions automatically when values change, which is useful when experimenting with variables or building reusable calculation documents. The desktop application is the front end to a broader Yutovo codebase. It relies on separate Yutovo logger, calculator, solver and editor components, while the desktop shell provides the user-facing application. This modular design keeps the mathematical engine and editor implementation separate from the main interface. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ latexindent.pl_-_highly_configurable_LaTeX_formatter⠀⇛ latexindent.pl is a highly configurable command-line formatter for LaTeX source. It can tidy indentation, align content, reshape line breaks, and perform controlled substitutions, with detailed YAML settings for adapting the result to an established document style. This is free and open source software. * ⚓ Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Alternatives_to_Apple_Pixelmator_Pro⠀⇛ Pixelmator Pro is an image editor for editing photographs and creating graphics. It offers tools for photo retouching, painting, drawing vector graphics, working with layers, applying effects and making non-destructive adjustments. Pixelmator Pro is proprietary software and is not available for Linux. We recommend the best free and open source alternatives. * ⚓ open-pdf-sign_-_Digitally_Sign_PDF_Documents⠀⇛ open-pdf-sign is a command-line application for adding cryptographic electronic signatures to PDF documents.

A model like Llama 3.1 8B in Bfloat16 (BF16) precision occupies roughly 15 GB of GPU memory. In BF16, each of the 8 billion parameters takes 2 bytes to store, which adds up to roughly 15 GB for the weights—and that's not all. The GPU needs memory for the key- value (KV) cache to store context for active requests, alongside intermediate tensor outputs (activations, as we call them) generated during inference. * ⚓ Red Hat ☛ Red_Hat_Developer_Hub_software_template_authoring_with_rhdh- templates⠀⇛ If you are a platform engineer or developer building Red Bait Developer Hub software templates, you know the friction of wrestling with Nunjucks syntax, guessing location.yaml placements, and discovering errors only after rendering in your developer portal. * ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Introducing_the_external_secrets_management_console plug-in⠀⇛ Last year, Red Hat made the external secrets operator generally available (GA), rounding out the trio of operators for managing credentials on OpenShift. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 734 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/09/08/FreeBSD_14_5_RELEASE_and_NetBSD_9_5_NetBSD_Google_Summer_of_Cod.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/09/08/FreeBSD_14_5_RELEASE_and_NetBSD_9_5_NetBSD_Google_Summer_of_Cod.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ FreeBSD 14.5-RELEASE and NetBSD 9.5, NetBSD Google Summer of Code⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 08, 2026 * ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ FreeBSD_14.5-RELEASE_and_NetBSD_9.5⠀⇛ FreeBSD_News_Flash: September 8: FreeBSD_14.5-RELEASE is now available.

It allows running them through a thin, in- kernel translation layer, instead of full emulation. One of its core functions is to simulate Linux syscalls for those programs. Until now, this functionality was not as well tested as other NetBSD components. The goal of this project was to use Linux's own test suite, LTP (Linux Test Project), to verify the usability and compatibility of compat_linux. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 781 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/09/08/Free_Libre_and_Open_Source_Software_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/09/08/Free_Libre_and_Open_Source_Software_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Free, Libre, and Open Source Software Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 08, 2026 * ⚓ Sacha Chua ☛ 2026-09-07_Emacs_news⠀⇛ * ⚓ It's FOSS ☛ MElon's_X_Tried_to_Kill_Nitter._The_Project_Just_Said_It’s Coming_Back⠀⇛ Two weeks after X Corp's legal letter forced the project offline, Nitter says it will continue. * § Web Browsers/Web Servers/Feed Readers⠀➾ o ⚓ NetNewsWire ☛ Dickover_in_the_Slashdot_RSS_feed⠀⇛ Since a couple of weeks I see a cookie banner presented in the slashdot feed.

After a bit of an upset over it changing licenses and moving on from GitHub, it's nice to see it still going. With it you can gain a fair amount of extra performance in some titles, but there can be drawbacks like extra input lag. It's certainly not a one-size-fits-all tool.

My old PC was running Windows 10, and it wasn't compatible with Windows 11. I had signed it up for extended support to give it a few more years of life, but I ultimately knew that I was living off borrowed time. At some point, I'd have to jump ship to another operating system, and I preferred to make the transition as soon as possible instead of waiting for Windows to fall apart on me. I knew I wanted to give Linux a try, but it was also quite an intimidating goal. I had never properly used Linux on my PC before; I had perhaps tried it a handful of times over my three decades of using Windows and quickly rebounded. So, I did the smart thing; I dual-booted Linux and Windows 10, telling myself that I would predominantly use the latter and dabble in the former. Except that didn't quite pan out as I expected.

GNU/Linux distributions that use KDE Plasma typically ship Gwenview, which has been the KDE image app for over 25 years. It’s a solid, feature-filled and Qt-based tool that and many love and rely on to view, manage and edit images. But development on Gwenview has slowed – and its legacy could be to blame. As GNOME found during efforts to modernise the Evince document viewer, updating old software can require rewriting and rewiring large chunks of an antiquated codebase. * ⚓ Nate Graham ☛ Photos:_a_proposed_replacement_for_Gwenview⠀⇛ Gwenview has been KDE’s flagship image viewer for_over_25 years. It works, it’s feature-packed, and it’s been modernized repeatedly. Gwenview has served generations of KDE users faithfully and well. * ⚓ Harmonicon_Weekly_Update:_any_harp,_any_file⠀⇛ This is a weekly update, which means I did a week of things and now I’m going to tell you about them, and I should say up front that most of the week went on two problems that sound small when you write them down. You had to own the exact harmonica a chart was written for. And the chart had to be in my file format, the one I invented, the one nobody else has ever written anything in. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1354 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/09/08/LibreOffice_Highlights_Spotlights_Tulio_Macedo_The_Document_Fou.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/09/08/LibreOffice_Highlights_Spotlights_Tulio_Macedo_The_Document_Fou.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ LibreOffice Highlights/Spotlights Tulio Macedo, The Document Foundation Collaborates With GNU/Linux Hardware Vendor⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Sep 08, 2026 * ⚓ Document Foundation ☛ Community_Member_Monday:_Tulio_Macedo⠀⇛ Tell us what you’re doing in the LibreOffice project, and other free and open source (FOSS) projects!

kernel series, namely Linux 6.18.50, MocaccinoOS 26.09 improves Intel CPU/platform support, including for Raptor Lake systems, improves ASUS ROG/Armoury hardware support for asusctl, and adds optional x86-64-v3 optimized builds for improved performance on supported modern CPUs. Right now, x86-64-v3 support is opt-in, which means that you will have to install it manually by running the sudo luet install layers/X-v3 command in your favorite terminal emulator, if your CPU supports it. It needs more testing, but after it’s solid and ready for the masses, it will become a selectable option in the Calamares installer.

In general, we care about (1) because that defines the sort of experience users will have, and we care about (2) for security.1 All other things being equal, (2) is a better property of course – it’s strictly more correctness than (1) offers. Alas, proving to ourselves that code is correct for all possible inputs is harder than proving it’s correct for some specific set of inputs – the latter can be done with a test suite, while the former requires something more. As a result, the verification we do for most software is a hybrid: testing to ensure the code has the right behavior on the set of inputs we care about, and other more expensive techniques to ensure it doesn’t have security vulnerabilities (with adversarially chosen inputs). * ⚓ Ben Joffe ☛ A_faster_way_to_convert_a_timestamp_➜_Hour,_Min,_Sec⠀⇛ This is in contrast to most date libraries which take around 16 cpu-cycles to compute. The speed gain will come from two main ideas (in order of importance): 1. A non-obvious reordering of the calculation steps, breaking the dependency chain. 2. Optional math tricks, including converting a base-60 clock into binary-friendly base-64. * ⚓ Suhas Kashyap ☛ Internationalization_(i18n)_and_Localization_(l10n)⠀⇛ Consider this scenario: You're a person from the US, staying in Canada, and looking to book a hotel room in Jaipur, India from my Travel site.

A few weeks ago, I wrote about the work I’ve been doing this summer adding Debug Adapter Protocol (DAP) support to GJS as part of Google Summer of Code (GSoC) 2026. If you haven’t read that post, start there for the background on what GJS and DAP are and why this matters. As my GSoC is wrapping up, I wanted to share you an update on what I’ve done, what I’ve learnt, and what I’m planning for the future. Instead of a lengthy report, I actually want to walk you through debugging a real GJS application using the DAP support I’ve added to GJS. By the end of this post, you’ll know how to launch a GJS app in Zed, set breakpoints (including on exceptions), step through code, inspect variables and more, all from inside your editor.

I have been getting on quite well with an old laptop shoved into my utility closet and Tailscale for some years now, but now there are some things I would like to be accessible outside my VPN. With the situation outside looking like it does, I figured it would be prudent to look for an European cloud provider. Plus, it is always nice to support the home team. The EU has been very loudly proclaiming the need for a “sovereign cloud” for quite some time now, so it will be interesting to see what progress has been made here. * ⚓ University of Toronto ☛ Always_remember_to_restart_daemons_and_programs after_changes⠀⇛ Today I got a useful reminder about how you should always restart programs and daemons after changes, or at the very least explicitly check to make sure that they've picked up changes you recently made. This lesson came in the form of a couple of hours of downtime for Wandering Thoughts, where it (mostly) responded with HTTP 500s between 08:38 and 10:53 today.

community, so I needed to teach XFCE4's thunar (file manager) and Ristretto (image viewer) to thumbnail these. * ⚓ Linuxize ☛ vmstat_Command_in_Linux:_Memory,_CPU,_and_I/O_Statistics⠀⇛ Use vmstat to monitor GNU/Linux CPU, memory, swap, processes, and disk I/O. This guide explains each column, live sampling, timestamps, and disk statistics. * ⚓ Mozilla ☛ CSS_anchor_positioning⠀⇛ The CSS anchor positioning module defines features that allow you to tether elements together. Certain elements are defined as anchor elements; anchor-positioned elements can then have their size and position set based on the size and location of the anchor elements to which they are bound. In addition, the specification provides CSS-only mechanisms to: [...] * ⚓ Vincent Bernat ☛ Sidenotes_with_CSS_anchor_positioning⠀⇛ I am a heavy user of sidenotes: they keep optional content next to the text instead of sending the reader to the bottom of the page and back. Tufte CSS renders them without JavaScript but only accepts inline content. CSS anchor positioning, now supported by recent browsers, is an elegant alternative. Sidenotes can hold several blocks, still without JavaScript, and fall back below the paragraph referencing them on narrow viewports and older browsers. * ⚓ Ache ☛ The_Shortest_IPv6_Addresses_-_ache⠀⇛ An IPv6 address is 128 bits long, written as 8 hexadecimal groups of 16bits. The :: shorthand replaces a run of zeros. The shortest addresses are therefore those where only the first group is non-zero: X::. Only the global unicast block 2000::/3 is actually usable. Every other block is reserved, unroutable, or too long to write out. Since we're looking at the first 16-bit block, that leaves us with 13 variable bits. Not a lot, I can just scan through those! * ⚓ [Updated] ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_MongoDB_on_Ubuntu_26.04_LTS⠀⇛ * ⚓ [Updated] ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_LocalSend_on_Debian_13⠀⇛ * ⚓ [Updated] ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_LEMP_Stack_on_Fedora_44⠀⇛ Every few months a client comes back with the same complaint: “the site was fine yesterday, now it’s throwing 502s and nobody touched anything.” * ⚓ Jon_Chiappetta:_I_Think_My_Favorite_Firewall_Command_Of_All_Time!⠀⇛ * ⚓ HowTo Geek ☛ Stop_using_the_cd_command_—_this_Linux_command_is_faster, smarter,_and_easier⠀⇛ The cd command, short for “change directory,” is one of the most fundamental commands on Linux. It’s how you navigate the Linux terminal — moving between different working directories. That said, cd is an old-school way to navigate the Linux file system, and several modern alternatives have emerged that make the process faster and easier. Here’s a modern cd replacement that can help you navigate your file system with less typing and less guesswork. ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣍⣉⣉⣉⣉⣉⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⣛⡛⠛⣛⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⣿⡟⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿ ⣿⠇⠀⠠⠄⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠀⠀⢀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⢴⠆⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣤⣤⣤⣤⣭⣤⣤⣤⣥⣤⣤⣤⣤ ⣿⠀⠀⣤⡄⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡯⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣭⣭⣿⣭⣭⣭⣭⣽⣭⣭⣯⡩⠯⡉⠉⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛ ⣿⠀⠀⣠⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠀⠀⠀⠁⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⢉⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣴⣶⣶⣶⣦⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠛⠁⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢹⣛⣛⣛⡛⠿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠃⠸⠿⠷⠇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠃⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠁⠉⠉⠉⠋⠃⠛⠛⠛⠃⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⣶⠄⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣠⣤⣤⣄⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⣤⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠻⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⠀⢤⣤⠀⣠⡤⢤⢠⡠⢠⢀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠉⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠈⠈⠈⠈⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣄⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠎⠓⠶⠶⠦⠳⠶⠶⠶⠴⢿⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⣭⡭⣍⡩⣭⣙⣛⠛⡟⡛⠛⣛⡛⡛⡿⢿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀⣶⠶⢶⡆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠁⠀⠁⠁⠀⠁⠁⠀⠉⠋⠋⠓⠃⠛⠋⠋⠛⠛⠹⠺⠺⠂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣦⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠻⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡄⢠⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠙⠛⠛⠋⠁⠈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⡏⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⡇⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠐⠀⠒⠂⠒⠀⠒⠂ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2633 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://tuxmachines.org/n/2026/09/08/YuzukiNeko_A_Linux_capable_Allwinner_F101_RISC_V_SBC_with_Raspb.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2026/09/08/YuzukiNeko_A_Linux_capable_Allwinner_F101_RISC_V_SBC_with_Raspb.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ YuzukiNeko – A Linux-capable Allwinner F101 RISC-V SBC with Raspberry Pi Pico form factor⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Sep 08, 2026 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇YuzukiNeko_schematics⦈_ Quoting: YuzukiNeko - A Linux-capable Allwinner F101 RISC-V SBC with Raspberry Pi Pico form factor - CNX Software — You’ll find the PDF schematics, EasyEDA PCB layout, Gerber files, 3D STEP file, BoM, and other hardware resources on GitHub.
