Tria Technologies has unveiled its OSM-SB-EP5, a 146 × 102mm development platform supporting Open Standard Module (OSM) Size-S, Size-M, and Size-L modules. The carrier board combines dual Gigabit Ethernet, USB 3.0, MIPI camera and display interfaces ti intended for industrial IoT, edge AI, robotics, and embedded vision development.
Flipper Devices is preparing a Kickstarter campaign for its “Flipper One,” a portable Linux computer powered by an octa-core Rockchip RK3576 processor and a Raspberry Pi RP2350 microcontroller. The handheld combines 8GB LPDDR5, Wi-Fi 6E, dual Gigabit Ethernet, and M.2 expansion for cellular modems, SDR modules, and other peripherals.
The November 11th Steam Client update is the first stable release to introduce 64-bit support for Linux systems, which means that all new Steam Client installations will no longer need to fetch that long list of 32-bit libraries. This also means you’ll have to remove your current Steam Client installation and reinstall.
Coming two months after Ardour 9.8, the Ardour 9.10 release introduces optional support for audio waveforms that reflect the region’s gain envelope, so the waveform of an audio region updates as you drag the gain envelope nodes around.
Highlights of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10.3 include sealed images for image mode, now generally available, a production-ready Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for RHEL that moves from Developer Preview to general availability, and a self-managed command-line assistant for regulated and disconnected environments, available as a Developer Preview.
Exfatprogs 1.4.4 is the fourth minor update in the Exfatprogs 1.4 series, coming three months after Exfatprogs 1.4.3. This release introduces a new feature to the exfatprogs command, namely optional I/O statistics collection for profiling read, write, discard, zero-out, and sync operations.
Mozilla Thunderbird 160 adds support for the Ctrl+A keyboard shortcut for selecting all filters in the Message Filters dialog, improves OAuth sign-in windows to explain when blocked cookies may prevent sign-in, and updates Office 365 account setup to no longer automatically offer EWS configuration.
The fixes include CVE-2026-109091, a vulnerability that could allow a malicious monitor or crafted EDID to supply extra descriptors that overrun those arrays and clobber adjacent MonRec fields (Modes, Last, DDC), causing an out-of-bounds write that can crash the server or corrupt memory.
Coming four months after Blender 5.2 LTS, the Blender 5.3 release enables the Vulkan backend by default on Linux, replacing the OpenGL backend, with the minimum Vulkan requirements being lowered to Vulkan 1.1 and some GPU/driver features made optional to support more devices.
Coming two weeks after KDE Plasma 6.8.2, the KDE Plasma 6.8.3 release improves support for multi-screen setups so that the position of icons no longer gets scrambled when one screen is disconnected at the same time as another one is connected.
Coming three months after Mesa 26.2, the Mesa 26.3 release introduces Vulkan 1.3 support for the PanVK Vulkan driver on Arm Mali v6 and v7 GPUs, OpenGL ES 3.0 support in the etnaviv driver for Vivante GPUs on HALTI5 hardware, and support for the Mali G68 GPU on Panfrost, the Mali G715 and G615 GPUs on Panfrost and PanVK, and the BXM-4-64 GPU on the PVR driver.
This section will be updated soon. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Signal-to-noise
bout 3 days ago I received a PDF of a submission made by a proponent of Microsoft-controlled Restricted Boot. I was unconvinced by what was said there, as it seemed like an appeal to emotion, not facts. If you spend decades promoting an American monopoly and undermining security, do you expect protection from critics? Do you even believe that critics are allowed to exist?
