ESP32 Bit Pirate has reached version 1.8, adding experimental software-defined radio (SDR) functionality using the ESP32-S3’s internal Wi-Fi radio. The update also introduces browser-based firmware extraction tools, improved protocol debugging, expanded board compatibility, and updated Zigbee capabilities for ESP32-C5 and ESP32-C6 devices.
The XPC nano NC50N by Shuttle is an upcoming barebone mini PC based on Intel’s N150 processor. The system supports up to 16GB of DDR5 memory, dual M.2 NVMe SSDs, and 2.5GbE networking, targeting digital signage, point-of-sale terminals, office environments, and multimedia applications.
Geniatech has listed two M.2 AI accelerator cards targeting local inference workloads on embedded systems and edge devices. The AIM-M-R28 uses Rockchip’s RK1828 processor with 20 TOPS of computing performance, while the AIM-M-H10 is based on Hailo’s Hailo-10 architecture, delivering up to 40 TOPS for generative AI and computer vision applications.
Bitmerse’s Romu recently debuted on Crowd Supply as an ultra-compact development board based on the Raspberry Pi RP2354A microcontroller. Designed to plug directly into a USB Type-A port, the board features capacitive touch input, an RGB LED and MicroPython support
A while ago, Shelly creator Zoey Bauer revealed the fact that they want to create their own distro, where Shelly is the default package manager, of course. Shelly is already the default package manager in CachyOS, a very popular Arch Linux derivative, but Bauer wanted to create a new Linux desktop.
Coming more than three months after KDE Plasma 6.6.6, the KDE Plasma 6.6.7 release adds support for monitoring GPU usage for Intel A380 GPUs, improves pasting very large PNG images, and updates the Plasma Discover package manager to show Snap versions of apps in the source selector menu rather than as separate apps.
Shelly is a modern alternative to Arch Linux’s default package manager, supporting third-party app stores like AUR and Flathub, Flatpak, AppImage, and native Arch Linux packages. Shelly comes with both graphical and command-line interfaces.
Ubuntu 26.10’s official flavors include Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Lubuntu, Edubuntu, Ubuntu Studio, Ubuntu Budgie, Ubuntu Cinnamon, Ubuntu MATE, Ubuntu Unity, and Ubuntu Kylin. All of them are powered by Linux kernel 7.3 and include the same updated core components and apps as the Ubuntu 26.10 release.
Powered by the upcoming Linux 7.3 kernel series, Ubuntu 26.10 ships with the latest GNOME 51 desktop environment, TPM-backed full disk encryption (FDE) support on computers without a hardware root of trust, updated Settings to show whether a computer is certified for Ubuntu, and many accessibility improvements.
Coming more than eight months after Libreboot 26.01, the Libreboot 26.10 release introduces full UEFI support, Dell OptiPlex 5050 SFF support, Supermicro X11SSH-F mainboard support, ThinkPad X280 support, ThinkPad X270 support, Dell OptiPlex 3040 Micro support, and support for 233 Intel/AMD Chromebooks.
On the AMD stack, RADV and RadeonSI got the most attention in Mesa 26.2.5, improving ray-tracing reliability by addressing black patches, texture artifacts, and load-dependent crashes.
Highlights of KDE Plasma 6.8 include a Wayland-only session, triple buffering for NVIDIA GPUs enabled by default, support for recording audio in Spectacle during screen recording, and automatic logic support for Plasma Login Manager on distros with older systemd versions, such as KDE neon.
Coming almost three months after IPFire 2.29 Core Update 203, the IPFire 2.29 Core Update 204 release is here to improve the Knot Resolver full caching DNS resolver implementation, which was introduced in the previous update, with a fix for a regression where clients connected via IPsec, WireGuard, or OpenVPN were unable to resolve names because Knot Resolver replied from the wrong source IP address.
On October 14th, 1996, Matthias Ettrich proposed a consistent, easy-to-use desktop environment for Unix-like systems. He called it the “Kool Desktop Environment” (KDE) — a deliberate jab at CDE, the proprietary Common Desktop Environment dominant at the time. What followed was 30 years of remarkable momentum.
