* ⚓ Open Source For U ☛ Building_Machine_Learning_Models_with_Scikit-
learn⠀⇛
Scikit-learn scores over other machine learning libraries
because it is easy to use, comes with a comprehensive feature
set, has strong community support, and is customisable. Here’s
a quick look at its features and use cases. Scikit-learn is one
of the most widely used libraries for machine learning in
Python.
* ⚓ Collabora ☛ GStreamer_1.26:_Improved_hardware_efficiency,_the_MPEG-
5_LCEVC_codec,_and_more⠀⇛
The GStreamer project has recently released version 1.26, and
once again, Collabora has made numerous contributions including
improved hardware efficiency, the MPEG-5 LCEVC codec and
improved support for analytics and machine learning.
* § GNU Projects⠀➾
o ⚓ GNU ☛ gzip_@_Savannah:_gzip-1.14_released_[stable]⠀⇛
This is to announce gzip-1.14, a stable
release.
Most notable: "gzip -d" is up to 40% faster on
x86_64 CPUs with pclmul
support. Why? Because about half of its time
was spent computing a CRC
checksum, and that code is far more efficient
now. Even on 10-year-old
CPUs lacking pclmul support, it's ~20% faster.
Thanks to Lasse Collin
for alerting me to this very early on, to Sam
Russell for contributing
gnulib's new crc module and to Bruno Haible and
everyone else who keeps
the bar so high for all of gnulib. And as
usual, thanks to Paul Eggert
for many contributions everywhere.
There have been 58 commits by 7 people in the
85 weeks since 1.13.

Our roadmap board is now available! We’re grateful to the
Council for their trust and support in approving it. As the
board will reflect any changes in our planning, this is the
most up-to-date source for our upcoming development. Each epic
will show its objective and what’s in scope – and as
importantly, what’s out of scope. The project information on
the side will tell you if an epic is in the backlog or work in
progress.
* ⚓ Nzyme.org ☛ nzyme_-_Nzyme_v2.0.0-alpha.16_has_been_released⠀⇛
This release introduces an entirely new Nzyme subsystem

The virtual Ecosystem for Research Networking (ERN)
Summit 2025 will be held on April 23rd from noon until
5PM ET. Our theme this year is Addressing Advanced
Technologies, Quantum, AI and Workforce Development. This
free conference is open to both researchers and educators
at R1 and non-R1 institutions, industry, and government
leaders.
Our keynote speaker will be Dan Stanzione , Ph.D.,
Associate Vice President For Research, Executive
Director, Texas Advanced Computer Center (TACC). This
will be followed up by three panels discussing the impact
of AI and Quantum on regional economic and workforce
initiatives, industry academic partnerships for preparing
the workforce, and perspectives from non-R1 institutions.
We welcome you to hear from industry, domain researchers,
and CI professionals, and join the discussions on the
impacts these advanced technologies are having in the
research community.
o ⚓ Rlang ☛ R_Dev_Days_2025⠀⇛

* ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Get_Ghostrunner,_Neon_Abyss,_ANNO:_Mutationem_and_more
in_the_Neon_Lights_Humble_Bundle⠀⇛
Another surprisingly good deal from Humble Bundle here. The
Neon Lights Bundle has launched with multiple highly rated
games like Ghostrunner and Neon Abyss. It's £10.92 for the
entire bundle.
* ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Apocalypse_Express_is_a_challenging_train-combat
management_roguelike_with_a_demo_you_need_to_try⠀⇛
Fogpiercer isn't the only upcoming train combat game around,
with Apocalypse Express getting a demo now too but they're both
wildly different and worth trying. Apocalypse Express is just
chaos and I want more. The demo was tested with the latest
Proton 9.0-4 and it works perfectly.
* ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Fanatical_brings_back_the_Oddworld_Complete_Collection
for_$1_/_£1⠀⇛
You can once again grab the Oddworld Complete Collection at the
price of some loose change that you can find down the back of
your sofa. Fanatical have put the collection back up on their
store as a bundle, giving you all of it for just $1 / £1.
* ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Civilization_VII_version_1.2_will_let_you_play_forever,
adds_"Teams_Multiplayer"_and_more_major_changes⠀⇛
Sid Meier's Civilization VII version 1.2 is due out April 22,
and with it Firaxis Games are once again solving numerous
complaints players have about the game, and it all sounds
really positive. Looks like they may turn things around after
the thoroughly mixed launch.
* ⚓ GamingOnLinux ☛ Mesa_25.1_will_make_Indiana_Jones:_The_Great_Circle
playable_on_older_AMD_GPUs⠀⇛
Since Ray Tracing is a requirement to run Indiana Jones: The
Great Circle, a change has been merged into RADV (AMD Vulkan
driver) for Mesa to get it working on older AMD GPUs.

Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this:
gpg --verify coreutils-9.7.tar.gz.sig

NEWS
* Noteworthy changes in release 9.7 (2025-04-09) [stable]
** Bug fixes
'cat' would fail with "input file is output file" if input and
output are the same terminal device and the output is append-only.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.6]
'cksum -a crc' misbehaved on aarch64 with 32-bit uint_fast32_t.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.6]
dd with the 'nocache' flag will now detect all failures to drop the
cache for the whole file. Previously it may have erroneously succeeded.
[bug introduced with the "nocache" feature in coreutils-8.11]
'ls -Z dir' would crash on all systems, and 'ls -l' could crash
on systems like Android with SELinux but without xattr support.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.6]
`ls -l` could output spurious "Not supported" errors in certain cases,
like with dangling symlinks on cygwin.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.6]
timeout would fail to timeout commands with infinitesimal timeouts.
For example `timeout 1e-5000 sleep inf` would never timeout.
[bug introduced with timeout in coreutils-7.0]
sleep, tail, and timeout would sometimes sleep for slightly less
time than requested.
[bug introduced in coreutils-5.0]
'who -m' now outputs entries for remote logins. Previously login
entries prefixed with the service (like "sshd") were not matched.
[bug introduced in coreutils-9.4]
** Improvements
'logname' correctly returns the user who logged in the session,
on more systems. Previously on musl or uclibc it would have merely
output the LOGNAME environment variable.

* Noteworthy changes in release 3.12 (2025-04-10) [stable]
** Bug fixes
Searching a directory with at least 100,000 entries no longer fails
with "Operation not supported" and exit status 2. Now, this prints 1
and no diagnostic, as expected:
$ mkdir t && cd t && seq 100000|xargs touch && grep -r x .; echo $?
1
[bug introduced in grep 3.11]
-mN where 1 < N no longer mistakenly lseeks to end of input merely
because standard output is /dev/null.
** Changes in behavior
The --unix-byte-offsets (-u) option is gone. In grep-3.7 (2021-08-14)
it became a warning-only no-op. Before then, it was a Windows-only no-op.
On Windows platforms and on AIX in 32-bit mode, grep in some cases
now supports Unicode characters outside the Basic Multilingual Plane.

nginx⠀⇛
Okay, I’ll admit it! After my post about server-side_RSS
readers, I remembered FreshRSS and fell in love with it
again. It’s so good.
There’s only one niggling issue with it: the default is
to sort your stream by when a post was received, not when
it was published. This is fine if you bulk import an OPML
file, but if you’re like me and taking the opportunity to
spring clean, it will sort all the posts of the last feed
you imported over all the others.
* § Games⠀➾
o ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ Dungeons_and_Dragons_alignments⠀⇛
It’s been a long time since I (briefly) played D&D, but
I’ve hung around people who still do regularly. Among the
things that intrigue me are the alignment_chart used to
create characters.
I aspire to be Neutral Good. I want what’s best for the
world and its people. I obey the law, but I don’t let
legality inform my moral compass. I also judge people who
dismiss moral concerns on the grounds that it’s legal,
and therefore fine.
o ⚓ Guillaume Lethuillier ☛ The_Myst_Graph:_A_New_Perspective_on
Myst⠀⇛
Upon reflection, Myst has long been more analogous to a
graph than a traditional linear game, owing to the
relative freedom it affords players. This is particularly
evident in its first release (Macintosh, 1993), which was
composed of interconnected HyperCard cards.
It is now literally one. Here is Myst as a graph: [...]

However, this is not the most impressive thing

The report, which analyzes millions of devices in
Forescout’s Device Cloud to identify the riskiest

Things (IoMT), shows that computers have the
largest number of bugs, but not the most dangerous
ones.
# ⚓ Forescout ☛ The_Risdkiest_Connected_Devicecs_of_2025
[PDF]⠀⇛
Our latest findings confirm a trend first noted
last year: Network equipment – especially routers –
has overtaken endpoints as the riskiest category of
IT devices. Driven by increased threat actor focus,
adversaries are rapidly exploiting new
vulnerabilities in these devices through large-
scale attack campaigns. Additionally, there are 12
new device types in this year’s list making it the
largest year-over-year change we have observed.
This finding reinforces attackers’ continuous
pursuit in exploiting new device classes — and the
importance for security professionals to stay on
top of the latest risks.

* ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ Chinese_project_aims_to_run_RISC-V_code_on_AMD_Zen
processors⠀⇛
The Jianchen Project members want to find someone, who can
modify AMD's Zen CPU microcode on a modern processor — say, an
EPYC 9004-series — to execute RISC-V binaries. The patch is
expected to either enable direct execution of RISC-V programs
or significantly boost their runtime speed compared to
emulation using the same hardware. The work must be tested
using RISC-V versions of benchmarks like Coremark or Dhrystone.
A complete submission includes binaries or source code,
configuration files, dependencies, and test instructions. If
only binaries are submitted before the deadline on June 6,
identical source code must be added via pull request later. The
winner will get ¥20,000 (approximately $2,735).
* ⚓ PC World ☛ Framework_Laptop_12_now_up_for_pre-order_in_the_US⠀⇛
The unpredictable chaos of the Trump administration’s tariff
whims put modular laptop maker Framework through a gauntlet
this week, who removed its lowest-cost designs and delayed the
scheduled pre-order of the new and affordable Laptop 12. But as
of now, when I’m writing this, you can get a pre-order in for
the new 2-in-1 in the US. Probably.
* ⚓ Arduino ☛ Solar_upgrades_the_Nebulophone_synthesizer_to_enhance
playability ⠀⇛
Dunn’s Solar upgrade adds a tactile keyboard and repackages the
entire thing so that it can fit in a Eurorack along with other
modules. There is also a sync-in for using Solar with other
synths.
The audio circuitry is based on the original Nebulophone, but
Dunn completely redesigned the PCB to accommodate the new
features. In fact, Solar has two PCBs: one for the circuitry
and one that mostly acts as a cover plate. It looks great with
the Cherry MX key switches and key caps.
* ⚓ Jeff Geerling ☛ Raspberry_Pi_cluster_spotted_inside_$6k_audio
processor⠀⇛
From what I understand, one Pi is used for remote control, web
UI, firmware updates, and local display. Another is used for
multi-stream audio processing (independent of the 'head' Pi, so
it can keep going even if there's a problem on the display/
remote access side), and a third Pi, which I believe is
optional, used for watermarking audio streams for data like
Luminate/SoundScan ratings data.
* ⚓ Talospace ☛ Enter_the_IBM_z17_mainframe_with_Telum_II_(more_clues_for
Power11?)⠀⇛
Still, we're obviously more interested in Power ISA around
here, and IBM has yet to say much substantive about Power11
other than the usual assertions of additional power efficiency,
more cores and higher clock. It is also expected to offer DDR5
support for enhanced memory bandwidth, though this is all but
certain to require OMI DDR5, not direct-attached RAM as in our
Raptor boxes. But it's often instructive to look at what's
going on with IBM mainframes for microarchitectural clues now
that Z-machines and IBM "big" Power chips often have the same
underlying design.
* § Canonical/Ubuntu Family⠀➾
o ⚓ Ubuntu ☛ Software_development_for_the_connected_car:_on_the_safe
side_with_Anbox_Cloud⠀⇛
AAOS helps developers create new applications and
features that enhance the driving experience, which has
resulted in a rapidly growing ecosystem of compatible
apps and services.

posted by Roy Schestowitz on Apr 11, 2025
You've likely seen and heard all the claims that Linux has no software support,
and you need to use Microsoft Windows to do anything. That may have held some
ground a decade or two ago but it's no longer the case, and even gaming is more
than viable on Linux. There are thousands of apps available for Linux, some
official ports of those only available on Windows. Better still, Linux has some
apps that can't be installed on Windows, at least without some effort, and a
few of these make up some reasons why I refuse to switch from Linux back to
Windows.

* ⚓ Yahoo News ☛ IBM_Informs_Staff_of_DEI_Retreat_as_Trump-Era_Scrutiny
Grows⠀⇛
International Business Machines Corp. spent months revising its
diversity initiatives as conservative attacks and souring
attitudes toward DEI shifted into a full-blown assault from
President Donald Trump.
IBM stopped tying executive compensation to aspirational
workforce diversity goals last year and in recent months
changed the focus of its supplier diversity program away from
contractors’ race and gender to all small businesses and
veteran-led companies, according to Jonathan Adashek, IBM’s
senior vice president of marketing and communications.
* ⚓ Red Hat Official ☛ Moving_AI_to_the_edge:_Benefits,_challenges_and
solutions [Ed: Nothing but buzzwords here]⠀⇛
While early AI implementations focused on controlled
environments and specific tasks, today's AI systems are being
deployed in increasingly diverse scenarios. Autonomous vehicles
process sensor data in real time to navigate complex
environments. Smart manufacturing systems detect quality issues
on production lines. Healthcare devices monitor patients’ vital
signs and detect anomalies. Smart cities utilize AI for
everything from traffic management to public safety.
* ⚓ InformationWeek ☛ What_You_Should_Know_About_Agentic_AI [Ed: 100% hype
about buzzwords, that's what Red Hat has become; cited here: "Red Hat
Corporate Communications" uses no social control media platform except
the two from Microsoft, which makes one wonder if Red Hat was bought by
Microsoft, not IBM]⠀⇛

Quoting: Interview with Mia Bajić —
If you look at the Python ecosystem, the projects with strong
communities and good documentation are the ones that thrive. The
Python web framework Django is a great example. It's not just
technically good, but also popular, largely due to its community.
Community makes software like Django accessible, usable, and
sustainable. If there's no documentation and no one around to help,
people will pick a different program even if it's technically worse.
Even the best-written software is useless if no one knows how to use
it.

In a world of pervasive adversarial nations building technology we
all rely on, the importance of homegrown technology products and
solutions cannot be overstated. At Purism, we are unapologetically
committed to designing and manufacturing devices that are Made in
America—not as a mere tagline but as a foundational principle. This
commitment is not just about patriotism; it’s about ensuring
security, privacy, and reliability for our customers at a cost that
rivals overseas manufacturing.

Systemd is the system and service manager used by most Linux-based
operating systems. It is responsible for initializing the system
during boot, starting and subsequently managing services and
background processes, handling D-Bus service activation, and managing
dependencies between services using a transactional, dependency-based
model.
Building on all of this, the systemd community is currently
developing their own experimental Linux distribution called
ParticleOS.

The calendar has turned another page, and it's finally time for our
eagerly awaited monthly update! We're thrilled to share what our
community has been building and improving since last month. Before we
get to that, let's talk the most recent Linux After Dark episode: It
seems when the four hosts do a distro challenge, they do it properly.
They didn't just try postmarketOS on one or two devices, but on all
of these: ASUS Transformer Pad 3G, Linx 7 tablet (Generic X86_64),
Motorola Moto G 2015, PinePhone Pro, PinePhone, Pinebook Pro and Acer
R11/ASUS C200/Lenovo Duet 3 (Chromebooks). The resulting episode is
not only very entertaining, but also gives many insights into first
use experiences!

* ⚓ Vermaden ☛ FreeBSD_Jails_Security⠀⇛
I believe this topic is not really well discussed online – and
often with multiple misunderstandings.
There seems to be this general belief that Podman on Linux is
as safe as Jails on FreeBSD … lets try to dig into that.
Below I will try to show all differences between security of
FreeBSD Jails and Podman containers on Linux.
* ⚓ Chris ☛ Log-Survival_to_Death_Rate⠀⇛
When Fisher talks about deaths, we can substitute any other
event for the death. In our case, we’ll look at how long pull
requests spend open before they are merged.

* ⚓ Rlang ☛ What’s_new_in_R_4.5.0?⠀⇛
R 4.5.0 (“How About a Twenty-Six”) was released on 11th April,
2025. Here we summarise some of the interesting changes that
have been introduced. In previous blog posts we have discussed
the new features introduced in R 4.4.0 and earlier versions
(see the links at the end of this post).
The full changelog can be found at the r-release ‘NEWS’ page
and if you want to keep up to date with developments in base R,
have a look at the r-devel ‘NEWS’ page.
* ⚓ Karl Seguin ☛ Zig's_new_LinkedList_API_(it's_time_to_learn
@fieldParentPtr)⠀⇛
The new version isn't generic. Rather, you embed the linked
list node with your data. This is known as an intrusive linked
list and tends to perform better and require fewer allocations.
Except in trivial examples, the data that we store in a linked
list is typically stored on the heap. Because an intrusive
linked list has the linked list node embedded in the data, it
doesn't need its own allocation. Before we jump into an
example, this is what the new structure looks like, again, with
all methods removed: [...]
* ⚓ Modus Create LLC ☛ Practical_recursion_schemes_in_Rust:_traversing_and
extending_trees⠀⇛
In this post, we’ll work through a concrete example to
introduce recursion schemes and what they can do. We’ll point
to a more real life example of how we use them in the
implementation of the Nickel configuration language, and we’ll
discuss the pros and cons of using recursion schemes in the
particular context of Rust.
* ⚓ Ruby_3.3.8_Released⠀⇛
Ruby 3.3.8 has been released.

OpenELA is extending the functionality of the Leapp upgrade
tool to all Enterprise Linux variants. The current upstream
version of the open-source project only supports Red Hat
Enterprise Linux (RHEL). With this new ‘branch’ of Leapp,
OpenELA offers more options for migrating Enterprise Linux
operating systems. It also adds several new functions to Leapp.

* ⚓ Red Hat ☛ The_road_to_AI:_A_guide_to_understanding_AI/ML_models [Ed:
Red Hat surfing hype waves]⠀⇛
Nowadays, everybody talks about artificial intelligence (AI)
and machine learning (ML). They have the potential to become
essential technologies that drive business growth, foster
innovation, and enable you to stand out amongst colleagues and
competitors. As C-level executives, software developers, and
business analysts, it's crucial to understand what AI/ML models
are, how they work, and how algorithms like random forest and
linear regression can transform your organization.
* ⚓ Red Hat ☛ How_building_workbenches_accelerates_AI/ML_development⠀⇛
In Red_Hat_Developer_Hub, any user (from data scientists to
MLOps engineers) can build, train, and deploy Hey Hi (AI)
applications with ready-to-use workbenches from a pre-defined
template, using Red_Hat_OpenShift_AI. Platform Hey Hi (AI)
engineers can extend self-service by creating workbenches and
other components for any team, using software templates via
role-based access control (RBAC).
Red Hat OpenShift Hey Hi (AI) is a flexible, scalable
artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) platform
that enables enterprises to create and deliver AI-enabled
applications at scale across hybrid_cloud environments. Built
using open source technologies, OpenShift Hey Hi (AI) provides
trusted, operationally consistent capabilities for teams to
experiment, serve models, and deliver innovative apps.
In this article, I will demonstrate how to get started
utilizing each platform and component.

I work at Red Bait on GCC,_the_GNU_Compiler_Collection. I spent
most of the past year working on how GCC emits diagnostics
(errors and warnings) in the hope of making it easier to use.
Let's take a look at 6 improvements to look forward to in the
upcoming GCC 15.

China-based purveyors of SMS phishing kits are enjoying
remarkable success converting phished payment card data into
mobile wallets from Fashion Company Apple and Google. Until
recently, the so-called “Smishing Triad” mainly impersonated
toll road operators and shipping companies. But experts say
these groups are now directly targeting customers of

Obfuscation is very important for many developers. They may
protect their code for multiple reasons like copyright, anti-
cheat (games), or to protect their code from being reused. If
an obfuscated program does not mean automatically that it is
malicious, it's often a good sign. For malware developers,
obfuscation helps bypass many static security controls and
slows down the reverse analysis process.

Quoting: New GoboLinux project lead – and new version 017.01 —
After five years, the extremely experimental GoboLinux project is
springing back to life with a new maintainer and a new release.
Nine years after its last major release, GoboLinux returns, with a
new release, version 017, and a new project maintainer. Until now,
Gobo was under the stewardship of founder Hisham Muhammad, a
Brazilian developer whose most famous project is probably the popular
htop process viewer.
Hisham has now stepped down and passed the torch to a new maintainer,
Philip "nuc1eon" Pok, who was already maintaining the project wiki.

* ⚓ LinuxTuto ☛ How_to_Install_Apache_Kafka_on_Ubuntu_24.04⠀⇛
Apache Kafka is an open-source distributed event streaming
platform used for building real-time data pipelines and
applications.
* ⚓ Jim Nielsen ☛ Ductility_on_the_Web⠀⇛
I read that and started thinking about the “ductility” of
languages like HTML, CSS, and JS. Specifically: how much
deformation can they undergo before breaking?
HTML, for example, is famously forgiving. It can be stretched,
drawn out, or deformed in a variety of ways without breaking.
* ⚓ James G ☛ The_HTML_form_to_structured_data_pattern⠀⇛
I regularly make small errors when adding new entries by hand.
The most common one is adding a comma to the end of a JSON
entry — which you can’t do! — or forgetting a comma after a
value where one is needed.
This week I created a web form that generates the JSON record
for me. The form is a static HTML page. When you submit the
form, a JavaScript script reads the contents of the form fields
and generates the JSON record that I can then paste into the
list.

workflow can significantly enhance your API development
experience.
* ⚓ Help Net Security ☛ Review:_The_Ultimate_Kali_Linux_Book,_Third
Edition⠀⇛
Packed with real-world scenarios, hands-on techniques, and
insights into widely used tools, the third edition of the
bestselling Ultimate Kali Linux Book offers a practical path to
learning penetration testing with Kali Linux.

Hi (AI) with minimal effort. With the recent release of
Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (Noble Numbat), many developers are
looking to set up their API documentation environment on
this stable, long-term support platform.
o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_UrBackup_on_Manjaro⠀⇛
UrBackup stands out as a powerful open-source backup
solution that offers both file and image backup
capabilities. For Manjaro GNU/Linux users looking to
implement a reliable backup system, UrBackup provides an
excellent option with its client-server architecture and
comprehensive feature set.
o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_IPTVnator_on_Debian_12⠀⇛
IPTVnator stands out as a powerful, cross-platform
solution for IPTV enthusiasts running Debian 12. This
versatile media player offers extensive features for
streaming television content while maintaining an
intuitive interface.
o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Apache_Guacamole_on_AlmaLinux_9⠀⇛
In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Apache
Guacamole on AlmaLinux 9. Apache Guacamole stands as one
of the most powerful open-source remote desktop gateways
available today.
* ⚓ The New Stack ☛ How_To_Develop_on_a_GNU/Linux_Desktop_With_an_Easy-To-
Use_VM⠀⇛
If you develop for the GNU/Linux desktop, you know how
important it is to not only have the right environment
* ⚓ How_to_Install_NVM_on_Ubuntu_24.04_or_22.04_Linux⠀⇛
I’ve lost count of how often I’ve needed to manage multiple
Node.js versions across different projects. In 2021, I was
juggling between three critical applications requiring
different Node versions on the same Ubuntu server.

* ⚓ TecMint ☛ ONLYOFFICE_+_LocalAI:_Hey_Hi_(AI)_Document_Editing_Setup_on

* ⚓ Linux Journal ☛ The_Power_of_GNU/Linux_Shell_Environment_Variables⠀⇛
If you're working in a GNU/Linux environment, chances are
you've encountered environment variables—even if you didn’t
realize it at the time. They quietly power much of what goes on
behind the scenes in your shell sessions, influencing
everything from what shell prompt you see to which programs are
available when you type a command. Whether you're an
experienced sysadmin or a new GNU/Linux user, mastering
environment variables is essential for customizing and
controlling your shell experience.

# ⚓ CNX Software ☛ Antenna_hack_more_than_doubles_the_range_of
cheap_ESP32-C3_USB-C_boards⠀⇛
There are plenty of small ESP32-C3 IoT boards with
a USB-C connector on the market, and while they all
look very similar, antenna designs differ, and less
thought-out ones may severely impact the WiFi and
Bluetooth range. Peter Neufeld decided to hack one
of those cheap ESP32-C3 boards by adding a custom
antenna, and this resulted in the board having more
than twice the range and almost three times in some
cases.

o § Openwashing⠀➾
# ⚓ Open Source Initiative ☛ Key_insights_from_the_2025_State
of_Open_Source_Report [Ed: OpenLogic_is_a_Microsoft_proxy]⠀⇛
Each year, the State of Open Source Report offers a
valuable pulse check on the global Open Source
ecosystem—and the 2025 edition is no exception.
Produced by Perforce OpenLogic, in partnership with
the Eclipse Foundation and the Open Source
Initiative, this report uncovers the latest trends,
tensions, and transformations shaping how Open
Source is adopted, managed, and scaled in
organizations of all sizes.
o § Productivity Software/LibreOffice/Calligra⠀➾
# ⚓ Document Foundation ☛ LibreOffice_Conference_2025_will_take

For this year’s LibreOffice Conference we had two
location proposals: Luxembourg and Budapest.
Members of The Document Foundation voted to choose
the final location, and we can announce that
Budapest is the winner. Currently, the expected
date for the conference is September 1 – 5, but
this is still subject to change.

✐ Control Your MIDI Controllers!⠀✐
As we discovered previously, your MIDI
devices can be enhanced to function in
different ways besides just triggering a
single note per key (or pad) press.
Being a serial module creator, and with the
help of the author John, I bundled these
concepts and more into a few handy CPAN
packages that allow you to control your
devices with minimal lines of code. So far,
these are: MIDI::RtController, MIDI::
RtController::Filter::Tonal, MIDI::
RtController::Filter::Drums, and [MIDI::
RtController::Filter::CC](https://
metacpan.org/pod/MIDI::RtController::Filter::

* ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ Local_versus_remote_RSS_readers⠀⇛
For years I ran a few different server-side RSS readers
including Miniflux, FreshRSS, and a horrible pile of Perl I
wrote that Did The Job™ for me. This was for one specific
reason: I wanted to be able to read my feeds on the desktop and
the phone, so I needed to be able to sync it somehow.
* ⚓ Daniel Stenberg ☛ Summing_up_the_curl_distro_2025_meet⠀⇛
On April 10 we ran the curl distro meeting 2025. A, by now,
annual open meeting where maintainers from the curl project
hang out with curl package maintainers for distros and other
people who are interested. The mission is to improve curl for
distros, and improve how the distros “do” curl. Around ten
people joined.

NB: This is the blog version of my talk from Measurements,
Attacks, and Defenses for the Web (MADWeb) 2025, earlier this
year. It was not recorded.
In my talk, I examined web security through the browser's
perspective. Various browser features have helped fix transport
security issues and increase HTTPS adoption:
HTTPS adoption was brought to over 90% in ten years. This
happened with encouragements in the form of providing more
exciting APIs only to Secure Context or deprecating features
(like with Mixed Content Blocking).

Key members of Musk's so-called Department [sic] of

"unrestricted physical access, 24 hours a day and 7 days
a week, to NASA facilities, including the NASA
Administrator’s suite," according to a separate letter
sent by three House Democrats to acting administrator
Janet Petro, Bloomberg reports.
"The agency has allowed unvetted and untrained
individuals to obtain unprecedented access, seemingly in
defiance of standard agency protocols and simple common
sense," the letter reads. "If the agency has vetted these
DOGE-associated persons for their questionable
professional histories or apparent conflicts-of-interest,
we are not aware of it."
o ⚓ EFF ☛ Certbot_4.0:_Long_Live_Short-Lived_Certs!⠀⇛
When Let’s Encrypt, a free certificate authority, started
issuing 90 day TLS certificates for websites, it was
considered a bold move that helped push the ecosystem
towards shorter certificate life times. Beforehand,
certificate authorities normally issued certificate

China-based purveyors of SMS phishing kits are enjoying

recently, the so-called “Smishing Triad” mainly
impersonated toll road operators and shipping companies.
But experts say these groups are now directly targeting
customers of international financial institutions, while
dramatically expanding their cybercrime infrastructure
and support staff.
