Quoting: 4 things you can do with a Linux terminal on Android that no regular
app can match —


     Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents:


     A Linux terminal on Android sounds like a niche hack, until you
     actually try it for a while. Google itself is taking the terminal on
     Android seriously, as evident by the new and rather impressive native
     terminal in Android.


     But when there are hundreds of thousands of apps available on the
     Google Play Store to do just about everything you can on a phone, why
     would you ever need one? That's because there are things you can do
     with a Linux terminal that no app can match.

Quoting: BlankOn Linux - Indonesian Debian-based distribution - LinuxLinks —


     BlankOn Linux is a Debian-based Linux distribution developed
     specifically for Indonesian users with local language support and
     needs.


     After years of dormancy, a new team has rebuilt the infrastructure
     and shipped the first bootable ISO from their own IRGSH build system.

                 Third, this is a whopping 37MB webpage on initial load.
                 But that’s not the worst part. In the five minutes since
                 I started writing this post the website has downloaded
                 almost half a gigabyte of new ads.


    * § Content Management Systems (CMS) / Static Site Generators (SSG)⠀➾


          o ⚓ Kenneth Reitz ☛ This_Site_Now_Runs_on_Responder⠀⇛


                 As of today, kennethreitz.org runs on Responder, my own
                 web framework. Not Flask. Not FastAPI. The framework I
                 built in 2018 as an experiment in making the server side
                 feel like the client side.


                 The port took a single session. One afternoon. Me and
                 Claude Opus 4.6, reading every route, rewriting every
                 handler, testing every endpoint, deploying to production.
                 The whole thing.


                 I want to talk about why, and what it felt like, and what
                 broke along the way.


          o ⚓ Security Week ☛ Thousands_of_Magento_Sites_Hit_in_Ongoing

                 The bug, it says, impacts all Magento Open Source and
                 Adobe Commerce versions up to 2.4.9-alpha2, and could be
                 exploited for XSS in all iterations before version 2.3.5.


                 “The vulnerable code has existed since the very first
                 Magento 2 release. Adobe fixed it in the 2.4.9 pre-
                 release branch as part of APSB25-94, but no isolated
                 patch exists for current production versions,” Sansec
                 says.

Quoting: Contribute at the Fedora CoreOS 44 Test Week - Fedora Magazine —


     The Fedora CoreOS and QA teams are gearing up for Fedora 44, and we
     need your help! We are organizing a Test Week running from March 23
     to March 27, 2026.


     This event is a nice opportunity for the community to test Fedora
     CoreOS (FCOS) based on Fedora 44 content before it officially reaches
     the testing and stable streams. By participating, you help us ensure
     a smooth and reliable experience for all users.

           Are you a Fedora user? If so, would you want to help the
           project prepare for the release of Fedora 44, which is
           scheduled to roll out the door on April 14. This would get you
           a little time with the new release under your belt before the
           new release is actually a release, which is pretty cool. If
           this is appealing, you’re just the person Fedora is looking
           for.


           Most Fedora users probably already know about Test Days. These
           are days the team at Fedora sets aside to enlist users like
           you, to make sure that upcoming releases have seen enough
           hardware/software configurations to give the devs’ confidence
           the software will run on just about anything the public throws
           at it.

Firefox 149 introduces the long-anticipated native Split View feature, allowing
users to view two web pages side-by-side in one tab. The Split View feature can
be enabled by right-clicking on a tab, and you can also add a split view to a
new group.


This release also adds support for downloading images directly from PDF files
via the context menu, increases the robustness of HTTP/3 upload performance for
unstable network conditions, and better integrates with your Linux desktop by
defaulting to the XDG portal file picker.

Quoting: FLinux - Linux distribution built in FLTK - LinuxLinks —


     FLinux is a Linux distribution entirely built in FLTK 1.3, hence the
     name (FL+inux). Its FLTK programs begin with its window manager: FLWM
     (1.20), web browser Dillo, FlRadio, Fluff (file manager), and even an
     image viewer (flpicsee).


     The system also includes ALSA as a preconfigured sound service, Xvesa
     as a graphical server, wbar, torsmo, and MP3 support via mpg123. Text
     editing is handled by “editor” (FLTK-based) and vi (CLI). Terminal
     emulators provided are aterm and xterm.


     This minimalist and modern distribution is a fork of Tiny Core Linux
     17. It uses Linux kernel 5.10 and glibc 2.42, and is available for
     x86 (32-bit) systems only.


     An independent repository hosted in Brazil provides custom-built and
     optimized packages, in addition to those adapted from Tiny Core.

    * ⚓ ImageGlass_-_versatile_image_viewer_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛


           ImageGlass is billed as a lightweight, versatile image viewer
           with a clean, modern interface. The program supports more than
           90 image formats including WEBP, GIF, SVG, PNG, JXL and HEIC.


           ImageGlass isn’t a new project. Although it’s open source
           software, it was not previously available for Linux. I
           contacted the developer in February 2023 to ask whether Linux
           support was planned, and they told me that ImageGlass 10,
           including Linux support, would take another two to three years
           to complete.


           ImageGlass 10 beta 1 is now available. It has been completely
           rewritten from the ground up using a modern .NET stack and the
           Avalonia UI framework. This change allows the application to
           move beyond Windows and run natively on multiple platforms
           including Linux from a single unified codebase.



    * ⚓ Resticara_-_simplify_routine_backup_jobs_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛


           Resticara is a wrapper around Restic designed to simplify
           routine backup jobs such as website data, maildirs, and SQL
           database backups.


           It focuses on straightforward configuration and deployment,
           helping users manage backups with logging, notifications, and
           timer generation from a single tool.


           This is free and open source software.



    * ⚓ nettui_-_unified_terminal_UI_for_Wi-Fi_and_Ethernet_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛


           nettui is a terminal user interface for managing both Wi-Fi and
           Ethernet connections from a single application.


           It provides separate panels for wireless and wired networking,
           supports tasks such as connecting to networks, toggling
           autoconnect, renewing DHCP leases, and managing hidden SSIDs,
           and is designed to work with Linux systems using iwd and
           systemd-networkd. The project is primarily aimed at Omarchy
           setups, but can also be used on other Linux distributions with
           the same networking stack.


           This is free and open source software.

    * ⚓ Periscope_-_organize_storage_and_safely_remove_redundant_files_-
      LinuxLinks⠀⇛


           Periscope is a command-line duplicate file finder that helps
           you organize storage and safely remove redundant files without
           losing data.


           Instead of only producing a static report, it is designed for
           interactive use from the shell, letting you inspect duplicates
           while navigating the filesystem with familiar commands. Its
           workflow makes it easier to understand where duplicate copies
           live, review them, and delete only files that have another copy
           elsewhere.


           This is free and open source software.



    * ⚓ Go_Find_Duplicates_-_scans_directories_for_duplicate_files_and
      directories_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛


           Go Find Duplicates is a command-line utility that scans
           directories for duplicate files and directories.


           It’s designed to be fast and simple to use, making it suitable
           for checking local storage, external drives, and large
           collections of photos, videos, music, and documents. The
           program is safe to use because it only reads files and produces
           a duplicates report rather than deleting or modifying anything.


           By default, this tool identifies duplicates if all of the
           following conditions match:


           file extension is same. file size is same. CRC32 hash of
           “crucial bytes” is same.


           This is free and open source software.

           goimapnotify is a utility that monitors IMAP mailboxes and
           executes scripts when messages are created, deleted, or
           updated.


           It uses IMAP IDLE to react to mailbox changes, making it useful
           for mail-driven automation, notifications, and custom
           workflows.


           This is free and open source software.



    * ⚓ svnsearch_-_search_through_SVN_log_diffs_-_LinuxLinks⠀⇛


           svnsearch is a command-line utility for searching through
           Subversion repository history using exact text or regular
           expressions.


           It is intended for Linux users who work with SVN repositories
           and want a way to inspect past changes with output and options
           that feel similar to `svn log`. The program can be useful when
           tracking when a string or pattern first appeared in a
           repository’s history.

           us given they were more capable and could play better games
           like the SimCity franchise (versions existed on consoles, but
           they weren’t the same). Save for a Nintendo Wii when I was a
           teenager, the only consoles I ever used were with family

Quoting: I built a NAS from an old laptop—here's what Linux taught me the hard
way —


     Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents:


     I recently repurposed an old laptop I had lying around into my first
     makeshift NAS by adding a hard drive and USB-C hub to it. It
     initially started mostly as a curiosity, mostly to see what it’s like
     to own a NAS. What I thought would be a quick weekend project quickly
     turned into an ongoing learning experience, but I’m glad I did it.


     This was my first time using Linux, let alone a server without a
     graphical user interface, and I made plenty of mistakes on the way.
     Now, with the benefit of hindsight, I’d like to share a few things I
     really wish someone had told me before I started.

    * ⚓ Dan_Horák:_PowerNV_firmware_issues_with_MD_RAID_coming⠀⇛


           I was working on an issue with the amdgpu driver in the 7.0-rc
           kernels on my Power9 based Talos II system, bisecting between
           6.19 and 7.0-rc1 when suddenly the Petitboot menu didn't
           contain any boot entries from my disks after a reboot commnand.
           First I thought my disk failed, but when I checked the kernel
           messages I noticed md: sdc4 does not have a valid v1.2
           superblock, not importing! message for all my RAID arrays,
           which sounded weird. What could break when everything was OK
           one reboot ago. I have recovered from this failure first by
           using a USB stick and then adding the content of /boot to a
           regular disk partition.

           It looks like things are starting to calm down - rc5 is smaller
           than
           the previous rc's this merge window, although it still tracks a
           bit
           larger than rc5s historically do. I'll still take it as a good
           sign
           overall.


           The diffstat looks fairly normal - half drivers (gpu and
           networking,
           but unusually some serial updates too). But on the whole it's
           all
           pretty small - most of the commits are small few-liners.


           Outside of drivers, it's the usual mixed bag - core networking,
           some
           filesystem updates, bpf, selftests and some architecture fixes.


           So while the rc's have trended bigger than usual this release,
           on the
           whole it all continues to look fairly innocuous. Please keep
           testing,

Quoting: On Our Way to Independence: Funding FOSS Force’s Next Year of Coverage
- FOSS Force —


     You may or may not know that FOSS Force is in the middle of a
     fundraising campaign on GoFundMe to raise $12,000 to cover costs for
     paying freelance writers for a year. That comes out to $1,000
     monthly, and when we have that money raised we’ll have the expense of
     paying writers covered until March 1 of next year.


     We’re calling our campaign the FOSS Force 2026 Independence Drive
     because it’s meant to help us cover open source for the benefit of
     users and those who practice in open source space instead of
     advertisers selling products. In other words, it’s meant to give both
     our site and our readers independence from the likes of Google. I say
     we’re “in the middle of” this campaign, because that’s where we hoped
     we’d be by now when we started it in early February. As it is, we’re
     just out of the starting gate.


     We quickly raised the first $1,000, which covered our writer expenses
     for February. That’s good. We also fairly quickly raised more than
     half of the next $1,000, which will cover our writer expenses for the
     current month. The trouble is, we haven’t seen a donation in well
     over a week. Maybe that’s because we haven’t been bugging you enough
     about it. Maybe we need to go all NPR and start publishing a pledge
     break a couple of times an hour. Probably not. That works well for
     radio, but I’m pretty sure that it won’t work for a print site.

Coming four months after Agama 18, the Agama 19 installer introduces the
ability to install some SUSE Linux distributions in so-called installation
modes, such as Standard or Immutable, adds a new updateNvram boot loader
setting to update the persistent RAM (NVRAM), and the ability to use SSH public
keys to authenticate the root user.


Also new is the ability to install into an existing LVM volume group and add
new physical volumes to an existing volume group, and a new option to download
the current installer configuration in JSON format, which is used by the Agama
command line tools and for unattended installation.

    * ⚓ Evan Hahn ☛ All_tests_pass:_a_short_story⠀⇛


           One night, I wrote a_simple_tool_to_pick_a_random_programming
           language. After shuffling a few times, I landed on Arturo. I
           decided to try it for fun.


           § What’s Arturo?


           Best I understand, Arturo is a stack-based programming
           language.


    * ⚓ Evan Hahn ☛ Little_web_app_to_pick_a_random_programming_language⠀⇛


           I wrote a_web_app_to_choose_a_random_programming_language.


           It’s very simple; I hestitate to even call it an “app”!


    * ⚓ Nolan Lawson ☛ The_diminished_art_of_coding⠀⇛


           Programming is an art. It’s less like fine art or music and
           closer to architecture or carpentry – combining form and
           function – but it is an art.


    * ⚓ peppe8o ☛ Using_Pascal_Programming_Language_With_Raspberry_PI⠀⇛


           In this tutorial, I will show you how to install and use Pascal
           on Raspberry PI computer boards. I’ll also show you how to
           setup a simple and useful terminal IDE to control and analyse
           your Pascal code.


    * § Perl / Raku⠀➾


          o ⚓ Rui Carmo ☛ Objective-C⠀⇛


                 Most of my ancient Objective-C resources are deprecated
                 now (a few were from the NeXT era, which should give you
                 some idea), so I decided to start afresh: [...]


          o ⚓ Nicolas Fränkel ☛ The_Software_Architect_Elevator⠀⇛


                 I don’t think it’s necessary to introduce Gregor Hohpe.
                 I’m a big fan, having read Enterprise Integration
                 Patterns, and I’ve recommended the book ever since. When
                 I spoke at the Software Architecture Gathering in 2024, I
                 was fortunate enough to meet him and purchase this book.
                 I’m the happy owner of a signed copy. Modern architects
                 don’t try to be the smartest people in the room–they make
                 everyone else smarter.


          o ⚓ Kenneth Reitz ☛ The_Maintainer_Is_the_Interface⠀⇛


                 For the person who has never contributed to your project
                 before, the first real interface is none of those things.
                 It's you. An issue response. A PR review. A one-line
                 comment on a first contribution.


                 The maintainer is the interface. And unlike an API, this
                 interface speaks back. It has moods. It has bad days. It
                 can make you feel like you don't belong.


          o ⚓ Geshan ☛ Choosing_the_best_git_branching_strategy_for_continuous
            delivery_in_your_team⠀⇛


                 With AI doing some or most of the code writing (ahm!
                 generation, if I may), being strong in the basics becomes
                 even more crucial. If you have the word "engineer" in
                 your job title, then knowing tools like Git and Docker
                 has become inevitable. In this post, you will learn about
                 the three main Git branching strategies and which one
                 your team should choose for continuous delivery. This
                 post will also cover real-life experiences and recommend
                 a Git branching strategy that has proven more effective
                 for the teams I've been a part of. Let’s get started!


          o ⚓ Evan Hahn ☛ All_tests_pass:_a_short_story⠀⇛


                 Best I understand, Arturo is a stack-based programming
                 language. It’s primarily maintained by Yanis Zafirópulos.
                 They published a vision of the language in 2020. Here’s
                 the stated goal from that post: [...]


          o ⚓ Chloé Vulquin ☛ The_Unix_Philosophy⠀⇛


                 At this stage, we now come to the "Unix Philosophy" as it
                 is quoted, except only the first part is quoted when
                 discussing it:


                 • Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
                 • Write programs to work together.
                 • Write programs that handle text streams, because that
                 is a universal interface.


                 What I'm going to try and demonstrate is that the first
                 two are meaningless outside of this context.


          o ⚓ Balthazar Rouberol ☛ I_somehow_wrote_my_own_build_system⠀⇛


                 I've grown tired of using make over the years. Because
                 I'm pretty good at making bad decisions, I've obviously
                 decided to write my own build system to replace it.


    * § Python⠀➾


          o ⚓ Reuven Lerner ☛ Do_you_teach_Python?_Then_check_out_course-
            setup⠀⇛


                 I’ve been teaching Python and Pandas for many years. And
                 while I started my teaching career like many other
                 instructors, with slides, I quickly discovered that it
                 was better for my students — and for me! — to replace
                 them with live coding.


    * § Shell/Bash/Zsh/Ksh⠀➾


          o ⚓ Vincent Bernat ☛ Calculate_“1/(40rods/​hogshead)_→_L/100km”_from
            your_Zsh_prompt⠀⇛


                 I often need a quick calculation or a unit conversion.
                 Rather than reaching for a separate tool, a few lines of
                 Zsh configuration turn = into a calculator. Typing =
                 660km / (2/3)c * 2 -> ms gives me 6.60457 ms without
                 leaving my terminal, thanks to the Zsh line editor.


    * § Rust⠀➾


          o ⚓ Niko_Matsakis:_Maximally_minimal_view_types,_a_follow-up⠀⇛


                 A short post to catalog two interesting suggestions that
                 came in from my previous post, and some other related
                 musings.


                 § Syntax with .


                 It was suggested to me via email that we could use . to
                 eliminate the syntax ambiguity: [...]

⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Review: Argent Linux
1.5.3⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧


posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Mar 23, 2026


Quoting: DistroWatch.com: Put the fun back into computing. Use Linux, BSD. —


     Argent Linux is a Gentoo-based distribution featuring the KDE Plasma
     desktop and designed for workstations and servers. The distribution
     favours the epkg package manager, a wrapper over Gentoo's Portage,
     specially designed for working with precompiled binaries. Argent
     Linux maintains a semi-rolling release model, with a stable branch
     and a development (testing) branch.


     I downloaded the project's KDE edition which features the Plasma
     desktop. This edition is 4.0GB in size. There is a separate Core
     edition which does not include a desktop environment which is 2.6GB
     in size.


     Argent's live medium boots to the Plasma desktop and launches a
     welcome window. The welcome window uses Argent's theme (which is gold
     on black), but identifies the operating system as being Gentoo. The
     welcome window gives us a quick introduction to Plasma and offers to
     launch the Discover software centre.


     The Plasma desktop is arranged with a panel placed across the bottom
     of the display. The panel holds the application menu, task switcher,
     and a system tray. The application menu uses more transparency than
     I'd like and is arranged in a fairly standard two-pane layout. Most
     of the icons on the panel are dark yellow and flat, making them seem
     like background images and the consistent colour makes them
     indistinct. Just two icons stand out on the panel, the ones for the
     Discover and Dolphin applications, both of which are blue.


     On desktop we find two icons, one is labeled "Ask for help" and the
     other is called "Install Argent". The "Ask for help" icon launches
     Firefox and connects us with an IRC channel for chatting and getting
     help.

As noted_earlier_today_in_the_sister_site, we've updated IRC (security patches
applied) and 2 days from now there will be maintenance at the datacentre, so
technical perils aren't impossible (but aren't likely, either).

Quoting: Sparky 2026.03 Special Editions - SparkyLinux —


     This release is based on Debian testing “Forky”.


     The March update of Sparky Special Edition iso images features Linux
     kernel 6.19.8, updated packages from Debian and Sparky testing repos
     as of March 21, 2026, and most changes introduced at the 2026.03
     release.


     There is no need to reinstall Sparky rolling, simply change Debian
     repos from “trixie” to “forky” and Sparky repos from “sisters” to
     “tiamat”, and keep Sparky up to date.

Quoting: Stop guessing what’s slowing down Linux. Do this instead —


     With Linux, especially if you're new, it can be confusing when the
     operating system slows down—seemingly out of the blue. It can happen
     with any OS, but you might know how to pinpoint it on Windows, yet
     not Linux.


     It can be daunting, but it's easy. Here's how.

Quoting: Switching to Linux saves you money in more way than one —


     While mobile devices are fine for chatting, reading, and watching,
     sometimes you need a real computer to get work done. But, it's become
     expensive to keep Windows PC up to date. Switching to Linux means you
     can keep using your old PC, and save money in other ways, too.

Quoting: This Linux filesystem was supposed to change everything—here's the
dark reason it failed —


     Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents:


     There are dozens of Linux file systems, and I'm sure you've heard of
     ReiserFS at least once. It promised a great deal but ultimately
     failed. I could give you some technical reason for its demise, but
     that would be dishonest. The true reason is much darker, and if you
     heard it, you might appreciate your day a little more.


     ReiserFS was a project that promised so much in the early days of
     Linux, and its lead developer—Hans Reiser—had big aspirations for his
     invention and company (Namesys). ReiserFS took his Linux file system
     in an entirely new direction with its B-tree index and tail-packing
     features—something sorely needed at the time. With distros like SUSE
     adopting it early, the future looked good for Hans Reiser's gem, but
     fate had other plans.

    * ⚓ Jonathan_Almeida:_Use_|mach_try_--no-push|_for_a_configuration_dry
      run⠀⇛


           I wanted to see what the generated try configuration would be
           for a new preset I made and did this by submitting real try
           pushes (with empty so they don't execute resources). What I was
           looking for was "dry run" in the help files, but I recently
           discovered it to be --no-push.


    * ⚓ Jonathan_Almeida:_Create_new_revisions_in_Jujutsu_with_multiple_heads⠀⇛


           It was one of those "ah ha!" moments for me when I finally used
           it. Chris Krycho covers_the_concept_of_megamerges with this

           Cloud copies are easier to automate when one tool can talk to
           S3, Surveillance Giant Google Drive, OneDrive, Backblaze B2,
           SFTP, and local folders from the same command line.

          o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_VidCutter_on_Debian_13⠀⇛


                 If you need to trim, cut, or join video clips on GNU/
                 Linux without dealing with a bloated video editor,
                 VidCutter is exactly what you need. It is a free, open-
                 source video cutting tool built on FFmpeg and libmpv, and
                 it gets the job done in minutes.

            10⠀⇛


                 Roundcube Webmail stands as one of the most popular open-
                 source webmail solutions available today. This browser-
                 based IMAP email client offers a modern, intuitive
                 interface that rivals commercial webmail platforms. With
                 support for multiple languages, drag-and-drop
                 functionality, and extensive plugin architecture,
                 Roundcube transforms email management into an efficient
                 experience.


          o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_GLPI_on_Fedora_43⠀⇛


                 If your team is drowning in spreadsheets trying to track
                 hardware, tickets, and software licenses, GLPI
                 (Gestionnaire Libre de Parc Informatique) solves that
                 problem with a single open-source platform. This GNU/
                 Linux server tutorial walks you through every step to
                 install GLPI on Fedora 43, from installing the LAMP stack
                 to running the final setup wizard.


          o ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_Gemini_CLI_on_Linux_Mint_22⠀⇛


                 If you want a powerful Hey Hi (AI) assistant living

           We have a bunch of networks in a number of buildings, and as
           part of looking after them, we want to monitor whether or not
           they're actually working. For reasons beyond the scope of this
           entry we don't do things like collect information from our
           switches through SNMP, so our best approach is 'ping something
           on the network in the relevant location'. This requires
           something to ping. We want that thing to be stable and always
           on the network, which typically rules out machines and devices
           run by other people, and we want it to run from standard wall
           power for various reasons.

           1. I want my home network to "shut off Internet access" when
           it’s bedtime.


           2. I need it to be completely automatic and on a schedule.


           3. I also need to make exceptions to allow a couple servers and
           devices do backups and updates at night.


           4. Bonus: I’d like to be in charge of the DNS on my local
           network so I can experiment with using it as a DNS sinkhole
           (like Pi-hole) for unwanted domains and giving my home
           computers nice local domain names.

                       January 7, 2013, at around 4:30 PM New York time.
                       My first commit to OpenBSD. 2,404 commits later,
                       and I remain as wanting to make sure OpenBSD is the
                       best operating system it can be as I was at my
                       first commit. That desire has stayed true even as
                       life has made it impossible to commit at the
                       breakneck pace I did when I was in my mid-20s and
                       only had to worry about grad school.


                       Now I am a professor, and have been for quite some
                       time. I have my own teams of undergraduate and
                       graduate students who are looking for research
                       opportunities to bolster their resumes and help
                       them achieve their personal and professional goals.
                       And at least part of the time, I have been able to
                       turn to the BSDs for ideas and projects for my
                       students. It is the win-win that I did not know I
                       would have access to all those years ago.


                       I want to spend this blog post talking about one of
                       my recent publications with some of those grad
                       students, and how it has made me rethink my
                       relationship to the technology and—equally as
                       important—the people.

                 My mistake was not learning Emacs in more depth when I
                 first became aware of it. For years I got by with a dozen
                 or so commands, and it is only recently that I have

                       Apple was apparently a big enough fan that it tried
                       to acquire the developer last summer. Those talks
                       never bore fruit, and eventually the company simply
                       hired de With. At the time, it was widely believed
                       that Apple had poached him from Lux. But new
                       allegations from a lawsuit filed by co-founder Ben

                       I’ve been on record—geddit?—here stating that MP3s
                       are my preferred audio format. MP3 is no longer
                       patent encumbered, it’s widely compatible with
                       anything I throw them onto, and the quality
                       difference between 320 Kb/s MP3s and higher
                       fidelity formats like FLAC (and ALAC) were
                       imperceptible to me.


                       That was true at the time, but I’ve since proven
                       myself wrong. I can hear the difference. Though it
                       took a few changes in my circumstances to realise.

Quoting: Ubuntu's folder icons got redesigned twice in a week because users
can't agree on how they look —


     I'm really glad that I moved from Windows to Linux in mid-2025. I
     enjoy free and open-source software more than its proprietary
     cousins, and the freedom to do what I want with my desktop is
     refreshing. However, I have learned that people are very passionate
     about their distro of choice, and they care deeply about the minute
     details.


     For instance, Ubuntu users are currently debating the color of folder
     icons. The colors were already changed last week, and now a new batch
     has been designed in an attempt to appease people who weren't happy
     with the original designs.

    * ⚓ Ubuntu_26.04's_new_folder_icons_undergo_another_revamp_-_OMG!_Ubuntu⠀⇛


           A big Yaru theme update hit Ubuntu 26.04 LTS last week,
           delivering a set of colourful new directory icons to
           development desktops (alongside other theme changes, like
           consistent radii and bolder text in UI elements and no dock
           transparency by default).


           It swapped Yaru’s slate folder icons for squatter, full-colour
           glyphs that reflect the system accent colour wholly. They also
           use an engraved treatment for standard XDG directories emblems,
           like Music, Pictures and Downloads.


           However, feedback on the new set indicated that the folder
           colour contrast wasn’t quite right, appearing too light under
           light and dark mode settings on the Ubuntu desktop. This
           contrast affected the prominence of the inset emblems placed on
           top.

     Vanilla Dpup is a lightweight, community-built operating system based
     on Puppy Linux and Debian.


     Like Puppy, it has that 2000s look and features a curated selection
     of preconfigured, lightweight applications for a variety of daily
     computing tasks like browsing and note-taking. Like Debian, it’s
     compatible with a huge range of computers and applications. Vanilla
     Dpup tries to strike the right balance between lightweight and
     practical, while improving efficiency and security.

Quoting: Winux - successor for Windows 10 and 11 users - LinuxLinks —


     Winux is an Ubuntu-based Linux distribution that’s heavily customised
     to resemble Windows 10 or Windows 11 in both appearance and
     usability. This includes a familiar desktop layout, taskbar, and
     start menu, making it superficially easier for Windows users to
     transition to Linux without a steep learning curve.


     The system also promotes compatibility with Windows software through
     tools like Wine, and may include additional components for running
     Android apps or Windows environments.
