🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇monitoring_tool⦈_
* ⚓ Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Alternatives_to_Microsoft_SQL_Server⠀⇛
Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database management system
designed for storing, processing and securing structured data.
It supports transactional workloads, stored procedures,
triggers, views, indexing, replication, backup and recovery,
and uses Microsoft’s Transact-SQL (T-SQL) dialect.
SQL Server is available for Linux, but it remains proprietary
software. There is no direct drop-in open source replacement,
particularly where an application makes extensive use of T-SQL
or SQL Server-specific services. But there are some excellent
free and open source relational database systems.
* ⚓ 8_Best_Free_and_Open_Source_Software_Bill_of_Materials_Tools⠀⇛
These tools create detailed inventories of those components and
their dependencies. This information can help identify
vulnerable packages, track licences, improve supply-chain
security and simplify compliance work.
They are particularly useful for developers, security teams,
package maintainers and organisations that need a clear picture
of the software they build, distribute or deploy.
Here’s our verdict captured in a legendary LinuxLinks-style
ratings chart. Only free and open source software is eligible
for inclusion here.
* ⚓ hw-monitor_-_comprehensive_hardware_monitoring_application⠀⇛
It combines a Rust backend with a TypeScript and React
interface using Tauri, presenting hardware information and live
operating statistics in a single desktop application. Rather
than restricting itself to static system specifications, it
brings together process management, performance graphs,
hardware sensors, storage information, network connections and
systemd services. This makes it useful both for identifying
installed hardware and for watching how that hardware and the
operating system behave under load.
This is free and open source software.
* ⚓ CLP_-_compress,_search_and_analyze_logs⠀⇛
It is particularly suited to environments generating
substantial quantities of machine-produced data, where
retaining conventional text logs can consume significant
storage. CLP combines compression, search, analytics and
viewing rather than treating compression simply as an archival
step. Its architecture also supports logging pipelines that
encode data before it reaches long-term storage, making it
applicable to both historical collections and continuously
generated logs.
This is free and open source software.
* ⚓ pywal16_-_generate_and_change_colour_schemes_on_the_fly⠀⇛
pywal16 is a fork of pywal focused on generating 16-colour
schemes from images.
It analyses the dominant colours in an image, builds a
complementary palette, and provides a practical way to use that
palette throughout a desktop environment. The project retains
pywal’s emphasis on staying out of the way: rather than
rewriting existing application configuration files, it
generates colour data and templates that programs can consume.
This makes it particularly useful for users who want the
appearance of their Linux desktop to follow their wallpaper
while retaining control over individual application
configurations.
This is free and open source software.
* ⚓ Hakoniwa_-_process_isolation_using_Linux_security_facilities⠀⇛
Hakoniwa is a process isolation framework for creating
restricted Linux execution environments.
It combines namespaces with several complementary resource and
security mechanisms rather than treating filesystem separation
alone as sufficient isolation. Hakoniwa creates a fresh mount
namespace with a temporary root and assembles the environment
needed by the confined process. It can be used from its
command-line interface or embedded through its Rust library,
which makes the project suitable both for interactive
application sandboxing and for software that needs to launch
restricted child processes programmatically.
This is free and open source software.
* ⚓ isolate_-_secure_execution_environment_for_untrusted_programs⠀⇛
isolate is a sandbox focused on safely executing untrusted
programs while limiting their ability to interact with the host
system.
It originated in programming contest infrastructure, where
submitted executables need to run automatically without being
trusted, but its underlying model is useful anywhere controlled
execution of arbitrary programs is required. Each sandbox
receives a dedicated working area and a restricted view of
system resources. The tool is intentionally specialised around
process execution rather than providing a general-purpose
container management platform.
This is free and open source software.
* ⚓ mpdris2-rs_-_expose_MPD_playback_through_MPRIS2⠀⇛
mpdris2-rs is a lightweight bridge between Music Player Daemon
(MPD) and the MPRIS2 D-Bus interface.
It allows desktop components and other MPRIS-aware software to
obtain playback state, metadata and queue information from MPD
through the standard interface used by Linux media controls.
This is useful for integrating an MPD installation with desktop
environments and utilities that understand MPRIS but do not
communicate with MPD directly. A particularly useful aspect is
its handling of artwork. Instead of requiring access to the
music library, mpdris2-rs retrieves artwork using MPD’s native
readpicture and albumart commands. Consequently, artwork can
also be provided when connecting to a remote MPD server or
listening to Internet radio.
This is free and open source software.
* ⚓ pacrank_-_pick_the_fastest_Arch_Linux_mirrors⠀⇛
pacrank is a command-line utility for Arch Linux and Arch-based
systems that selects fast package mirrors for the user’s
location and writes the chosen servers to pacman’s mirrorlist.
It follows a focused ranking pipeline rather than offering a
large collection of scoring controls. When countries are not
supplied manually, pacrank estimates nearby countries by
sampling the global Arch mirror list. It filters candidates by
country and freshness, evaluates latency, and then subjects the
strongest candidates to real download testing. Final ranking is
based on observed throughput rather than latency alone. The
throughput tests run sequentially so simultaneous transfers do
not compete for the user’s available bandwidth and distort the
results.
This is free and open source software.
* ⚓ Freezed_-_TYPO3_Fluid_Static_Site_Generator⠀⇛
Freezed is a static site generator written in PHP and built
around the TYPO3 Fluid template engine.
It takes content and one or more themes and compiles them into
a directory containing ordinary HTML and assets, leaving no
application runtime or database on the deployed site. Its
structure will feel familiar to developers who already work
with Fluid: layouts, partials, sections and ViewHelpers are
used to compose pages, while site content is represented by
folders and templates. Freezed separates source content,
themes, copied static files and generated output into distinct
directories, making the build process straightforward to
inspect and version-control.
This is free and open source software.
* ⚓ Notation_-_sign_and_verify_software_artifacts⠀⇛
Notation is a command-line tool for signing and verifying
software artifacts. It is designed for the OCI registry
ecosystem and implements the Notary Project specifications.
The software can add signatures to container images and other
OCI artifacts and subsequently verify those signatures. This
provides a mechanism for establishing the authenticity and
integrity of artifacts distributed through registries.
Notation supports plugins, allowing signing workflows to
integrate with external key management systems and signing
services.
This is free and open source software.
* ⚓ Jollpi_-_lightweight_GTK_4_text_editor_with_syntax_highlighting⠀⇛
The editor sits between very basic notepad-style applications
and heavyweight programming environments. Its interface remains
uncomplicated, but GtkSourceView gives it facilities that make
it useful for editing source code as well as ordinary text
documents. Multiple documents can be kept open at once without
introducing the project-management concepts associated with an
IDE.
Particular attention has also been paid to file handling.
Jollpi can open files asynchronously, with operations that can
be cancelled, helping the graphical interface remain responsive
when dealing with large documents. It can also watch open files
for changes made by other applications, a useful facility when
the same document is being processed by external tools.
This is free and open source software.

Coming two months after Emmabuntüs Debian Edition 6 1.02, a small update that
only improved Piper integration with flow rate, height, and volume management,
the Emmabuntüs Debian Edition 6 1.03 release is based on the latest Debian 13.7
“Trixie” operating system and features the Xfce 4.20 and LXQt 2.1 desktop
environments bundled on the same ISO image.
Emmabuntüs Debian Edition 6 1.03 is all about improving accessibility with the
integration of two new utilities, namely Easy Menu and Easy Reader TTS. Easy
Menu provides quick access to Emmabuntüs’ main accessibility features through a
dedicated key (Right Control or F12) and provides direct access to certain
frequently used options in the main menu.

Coming only a week after Flatpak 1.18.3, the Flatpak 1.18.4 release is here to
address several security vulnerabilities, including CVE-2026-97024 to prevent
privileged overwrite of arbitrary files with an empty file or a symlink to /
run/host/monitor/resolv.conf when a malicious application is installed.
Flatpak 1.18.4 also addresses CVE-2026-97023 to prevent privileged deletion of
arbitrary files when a malicious app is installed, and CVE-2026-97029 to
prevent apps from sending signals to a process group that includes a parent
process outside the app, causing denial of service by killing the desktop
environment.

Numerous different calendar systems are used in the world.
The Christian/Western/Gregorian calendar counts the years from
an estimate of the year when Jesus was born, and the year turns
when the date changes from Dec 31 to Jan 1.
There are lunar and solar calendar systems that have been
running for far longer than that, and that turn the years on
different days.
There's Unix calendar that counts seconds elapsed since 1970-
01-01 00:00 UTC, and that will overflow_into_the_32nd_bit_in
2038.
[...]
So now we're about to wrap up GNU year 42 and start GNU year
43.
Happy GNU Year!

Coming three after Git 2.55, the Git 2.56 release introduces a new --resolved
option to the git add command to stage conflict-resolved paths while leaving
unrelated local changes unstaged. It scans the unmerged paths for leftover
conflict markers and aborts if any are found.
Git 2.56 also teaches the git bisect command a --reset-when-found option that
automatically runs git bisect reset to jump back to the original state or to
the found culprit. The git branch command got a --delete-merged option to
remove local branches that are already merged into their tracked remote-
tracking branches, and git branch -d now reports when a branch can’t be deleted
because it’s being used in an active bisect run.

Quoting: Give Linux Mint a dramatic new look with Silent Horizon —
Silent Horizon is a Linux Mint makeover script that installs a set of
customdesklets, panel applets, a wallpaper, Plank dock theme and
minor Cinnamon layout tweaks.
It’s the work of ~PersianVibeCoder – yes, their actual username – who
says Silent Horizon helps to create a “calm, minimal desktop with
little details that make it feel alive”.
It is those “little details” which add more dynamism than your
typical ‘makeover pack’.
Take the weather and system monitor desklets. The cards have an
animated rim light that continuously circle around the edge of each
card. Hit play on this video to see them in action (albeit sped up to
make the effect more obvious): [...]

I think phone etiquette is really, really

people playing music or having their phone on
speaker, no headphones. Do we just not know how to
act when it comes to our phones?

Quoting: Introducing Toolpak – Rust in Peace —
GNOME OS does something similar: There is a “developer” system
extension that overlays the toolchain used for building the OS on top
of the user-facing OS image. However, this is a finite list of
utilities needed specifically to build the OS. As such, it can not
cover the long tail of development and debugging tools developers in
different areas need (e.g. kernel development).

Quoting: I spent a year on Linux Mint, but I'll never use it again for these
reasons —
I have a Lenovo IdeaPad Y70, and it took Linux poorly. On some
machines, Mint just reads the laptop wrong, and that happened on
mine. The first big problem was when my laptop just decided wireless
was off, so Wi-Fi and Bluetooth died completely, even when everything
was fine.
The thing about Linux is that nothing on screen tells you how to fix
it if it’s an issue like this. You're going to have to go through
forums to figure it out. The issue is that the wireless chips in a
lot of older laptops were built with Windows in mind, not Mint.
Mint's built-in drivers are generic, so they get shaky with those
chips. You might run Wi-Fi and Bluetooth together and watch the
connection drop every few minutes. Or you close the lid, open it, and
the card just doesn't wake up.
Getting it stable usually means installing a driver from outside
Mint's normal sources or messing with startup settings. It isn't
hard, but a new Linux user would never think about trying it.

Recently Michael Tunnell interviewed Aleix and I on the subject
of KDE’s 30th birthday, Wayland, LTS software, the new Union
theming engine, and more! If you’re interested, you can check
it out here. Note: if you work at Microsoft, please don’t watch

Last weekend I had the privilege of attending Akademy - the
yearly gathering of the KDE community. Taking place in Graz, it
was a special one, marking the 30th anniversary of the email
that set the Kool Desktop Environment in motion.
* ⚓ Tellico_4.3_Released⠀⇛
Tellico 4.3 is_available, with some additional capabilities,
improvements, and bug fixes. I’ve received several code
contributions from new people in the last few months and I
wanted to say thanks. Depending a little on how I count it,
Tellico turns 25 years old next month. It’s always been a
hobby; I’m not a programmer by trade or training, and so I’m
always gratified when other folks find my little tool useful
and provide feedback, bug fixes, and even code contributions.

Upcoming advances like Zen 6, PCIe Gen6 storage are expected to
help get us into single figures.
The source site’s determined Linux focus has meant that OS
kernel compilation times have become a signature benchmark over
the last two decades. Larabel notes that this once time-
consuming process “can be done in now roughly 15 seconds.” It
isn’t just advances in hardware and core counts pushing the
envelope; compiling a defconfig x86-64 Linux kernel build has
had many bottlenecks removed thanks to the work of Linux MM
developer Lorenzo Stoakes and the assistance of AI/LLMs
recently. Even modest processors have seen their compile times
cut dramatically thanks to this work.

At the end of last year I wrote about jailexec, my Ansible

jail host and running everything through jexec. That article
has a section called Security Design. It proudly explains the
two-stage file transfer: upload to a temporary location on the
host, then move it into the jail with privilege escalation.
That two-stage file transfer was a jail escape.

* ⚓ Linux_7.3-rc5⠀⇛
Another week, another large rc.
The diffstat looks a bit unusual. Less than a third of the
patch is
drivers, and a quarter is just selftests. Now, that's
admittedly a bit
misleading: most of the driver patches are rather small, and
some of
the selftest patches are much bigger (the biggest patch in here
is the
arm64 kvm ITS table test, I think). So counting the number of
commits
it skews quite differently. But that diffstat is still a bit
unusual.
Not *bad* unusual, just not what I typically see.
The rest is mostly architecture fixes (largely kvm-related,
some perf)
and a fair amount of core kernel (both scheduler and bpf). And
networking, of course. Most of the driver side is networking
too (with
drm showing up as a close second). That part is decidedly _not_
unusual.
There's various other scattered fixes in here too - core vfs,
some
xfs. I don't think there's any real pattern to it other than
"big".
But nothing looks particularly alarming, I think that despite
the
difftstat it's just the same old, same old.
Please keep testing,
Linus

Have you ever found yourself on a system that's lacking the
necessary tools? Maybe it was a rescue or installation
environment, an unfamiliar system you were repairing, or a
Docker container you were debugging. If you've used Linux for a
while, you've likely encountered these scenarios, and
installing the required tools can be a hassle when all you want
is to finish the job. That's where a convenient toolkit becomes
a lifesaver, and I have one that fits the bill perfectly.
X-cmd describes itself in many ways, but at its core, it's
portable, convenient, and hassle-free. In keeping with that
spirit, you can deploy it to any system with a simple curl
command: [...]
* ⚓ I_finally_tried_this_modern_Linux_file_manager,_and_it's_now_my_new
default⠀⇛
Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents:
Typically, your default file manager on Linux depends on
whichever desktop environment you’re using. If you’re using
anything GNOME-based like Ubuntu, you get Nautilus. If you’re
using anything KDE Plasma-based like Kubuntu, you’re looking at
Dolphin. They’re all fine, but I wouldn’t call them “perfect.”
For instance, Nautilus looks clean, minimal, and extremely
polished, but lacks a lot of useful functions you’ll find in
Dolphin, which, in turn, looks somewhat raw and unrefined.
There’s also the fact that all of these are graphical file
managers, whereas a big chunk of the Linux experience isn’t.
When I SSH into my home server or work on anything headless,
none of these apps exist. Sure, you can use ls and cd to get
around your directories, but I find that very clunky and
unintuitive.
That’s why I started looking into terminal-based file managers
and eventually landed on superfile. It’s one of the best
terminal-based file managers I’ve used in a long time, and I’ve
used plenty. In fact, it’s so good that it’s now my default,
whether I’m on a server or using a full desktop environment.

Quoting: matrixOS - Gentoo-Based Immutable Distribution with Atomic Upgrades -
LinuxLinks —
matrixOS is a Gentoo-based distribution which combines Gentoo’s
flexibility with an immutable base system and atomic updates. Rather
than updating the running base installation package by package,
matrixOS uses OSTree deployments. An upgrade is deployed as a
complete filesystem state, allowing the system to retain an earlier
deployment that can be selected if something goes wrong.
The distribution is primarily designed for desktop systems and
homelab use. Its developers describe reliability and gaming support
as its two main goals. Images are available with GNOME or System76’s
COSMIC desktop, each maintained as a separate OSTree branch. Users
can switch branches with the distribution’s vector management
utility.
matrixOS includes current Mesa and NVIDIA graphics drivers and comes
prepared for gaming with Steam and Lutris. Applications can also be
installed using Flatpak and Snap, while Docker is available for
containers. The underlying Gentoo environment and Portage remain
important to how the system is built, but the normal matrixOS
installation keeps the base operating system read-only.

Highlights of Firefox 157 include the brand-new design that we previewed in
Firefox Nightly back in July. The new theme is called Nova and promises to make
the popular open-source web browser feel cleaner, faster, adaptable, and
warmer, according to Mozilla.
As part of the new Nova design, Mozilla is also bringing back the Compact mode
with reduced spacing for smaller screens, alongside a Standard mode providing
balanced spacing for most screens and a Touch mode optimized for touch screens
with larger window elements and click targets.

Firefox 158 looks like yet another small update that promises better PDF
handling with support for SkPDF, a PDF-generation backend for Skia, for PDF
generation when saving as PDF and also printing on Linux and macOS systems,
allowing PDFs to be more accessible and also addressing various PDF rendering
issues.
Firefox 158 also promises to update the New Tab page to keep a library of
custom wallpapers under Your images, rather than only the most recent one,
improve form filling in the Smart Window by suggesting data to use based on
your relevant open tabs and saved autofill data, and make various menus
visually consistent with a High Contrast theme on Windows systems.

* ⚓ Boiling Steam ☛ New_Steam_Games_Playable_on_the_Steam_Deck,_with_Well
Dweller_and_Normal_Golf_Game_-_2026-09-26_Edition⠀⇛
Between 2026-09-19 and 2026-09-26 we selected 9 newly released
games that are rated as Verified or Playable on the Steam Deck,
and meeting specific criteria in terms of user ratings. The
biggest title of the week is Well Dweller, which is apparently
one of the best metroidvanias ever made, on par with Hollow
Knight if I am to trust what the reviewers are saying. The
trailer does certainly look good and make convince you further.
Full list and details below!
* ⚓ Tom's Hardware ☛ PS5_emulator_successfully_runs_six_titles_at_a
playable_60_FPS⠀⇛
SharpEmu’s latest release can run six tested PS5 games at 60
FPS, with 12 of 55 titles now reaching gameplay state, as
developers improve shader translation and Vulkan support.
* ⚓ KitGuru ☛ AnyPS5_tool_targets_native_PS5_game_execution_on_Windows_and
Linux⠀⇛
A new open‑source project, AnyPS5, aims to run PlayStation 5
games natively on Windows and Linux without traditional
emulation. Listed on GitHub, the tool relinks PS5 executables
into native formats for the host OS and reimplements the
console’s system libraries for dynamic linking.
* ⚓ Valve_confirms_Steam_Frame_VR_streaming_on_Linux_needs_SteamVR_started
by_hand⠀⇛
A Steam Frame streaming PC VR from a Linux desktop cannot get
SteamVR going by itself, so a game picked inside the headset
opens as a flat window on the monitor instead. Valve has
confirmed the bug, has no date for a fix, and tells owners to
start SteamVR on the PC first.

closing the gap.
OpenShot 4.0.1 also improves timeline and zoom by letting you keep video clip
controls visible while scrolling, resize the zoom range more easily, and see
more consistent thumbnails, and makes color adjustments, live transforms, and
zooming in projects with many keyframes more responsive.

* ⚓ Micah Kepe ☛ That_Time_Ken_Thompson_Wrote_a_Backdoor_into_the_C
Compiler⠀⇛
When Ken Thompson won the Turing Award jointly with Dennis
Ritchie for their work in UNIX, he was expected like other
Turing winners to write a paper that would be published in the
ACM Computer Journal. What he ended up submitting was a paper
about "the cutest program [he] ever wrote"-- a sneaky
undetectable self-reproducing "Trojan horse" backdoor in the C
compiler that would allow him to log into affected machines as
any user.
* ⚓ Undeadly ☛ Game_of_Trees_0.129_released⠀⇛
Version 0.129 of Game of Trees has been released (and the port
updated). Complete release notes are as follows: [...]
* ⚓ Ned Batchelder ☛ Expert_asterisks⠀⇛
What!? Why mention this while explicitly pointing out no one
does it? The newb just barely understands how git works at all.
Why introduce obscure command-line options that “hardly anyone”
uses?
I call this an asterisk because it feels like an esoteric
footnote that only experts, academics, or completionists would
need to know.
* ⚓ Aquila_Macedo_Costa:_Testing_library_transitions_before_they_reach
unstable⠀⇛
A library_transition can affect many packages in Debian. I
added a way for Salsa CI to rebuild the ones that depend on the
changing library, so maintainers can test the transition before
it reaches unstable.
* ⚓ Adam Sawicki ☛ Writing_Efficient_C++_Code⠀⇛
Although high-level languages—scripting, interpreted, or
running in a virtual machine—have many advantages and are the
best choice for numerous applications, sometimes we need to
write code that is as efficient as possible. Choosing a native
language such as C++ is not enough. Only some knowledge and
familiarity with good practices will let us get the most
computing power out of the hardware.
* ⚓ Dirk Eddelbuettel ☛ Dirk_Eddelbuettel:_#060:_Using_bubblewrap_for_R
sandboxing⠀⇛
Welcome to post 60 in the R4 series.
bubblewrap is a great tool and very suitable for using with an
agent harness. It is a very compelling—and
lightweight—alternative to using a full-blown docker container
as it offers low-level unprivileged sandboxing on GNU/Linux
hosts.
* § Perl / Raku⠀➾
o ⚓ Olaf Alders ☛ Debugging_HTTP::Tiny_Calls_Deep_Inside_Your_Stack⠀⇛
LWP::ConsoleLogger is one of the little libraries that I
am most proud of. First, because I think it’s clever pats
self on back but second because I have found it to be
incredibly useful over many years of working with libwww-
perl based UserAgents like LWP::UserAgent and WWW::
Mechanize.

Quoting: Nura // Project rebrand: Nura —
Nura comes as an abbreviation of Nuraghe, which are ancient (3000 BC
and older) granite structures found in Sardinia in Italy, many of
which still stand today. The deeper meaning is the stability and the
resistance to millenniums, which fits well with the our project as
the idea has been from the start to keep devices our OS runs on
useful for a long time. The name was contributed by Davide Depau as
part of our initial request for community contributions for the new
name. Thanks a lot Davide!

Neowin:
* ⚓ Linux_project_gets_a_new_name_because_not_many_people_knew_about_it⠀⇛
postmarketOS. Does that name ring a bell? No? Exactly. The
postmarketOS team, after about a year of deliberation, has
decided to rename the project to something much simpler that
rolls off the tongue: Nura.
postmarketOS, for those who don't know, is a Linux distro that
aims to offer a true, mainline GNU/Linux experience on mobile
devices and offers various user interfaces, including Phosh
(GNOME-based) and Plasma Mobile (KDE-based). Because the OS is
based on Alpine Linux, it is extremely lightweight, can run
native Linux desktop apps, and can be used to breathe life into
old, abandoned devices that no longer receive official Android
updates.
The team said it decided to rebrand postmarketOS to Nura
because the original branding simply felt way too long, hard to
pronounce, and very easy to mistype with its bizarre mid-word
letter casing. Some people write it as "Postmarketos",
"PostmarketOS", "post-market OS," and of course the proper
"postmarketOS". This, according to the team, made it difficult
to market the OS.
Notebookcheck:
* ⚓ postmarketOS_is_now_Nura_after_nearly_a_decade_of_bringing_Linux_to
phones⠀⇛
postmarketOS began as a way to keep phones useful for longer.
Over time, its name became harder to explain, especially when
new phones began shipping with the system already installed.
The team has now chosen a name inspired by something that has
lasted thousands of years.
OMG!Joey:
* ⚓ postmarketOS_has_announced_its_new_name⠀⇛
postmarketOS, the mobile GNU/Linux distribution based on Alpine
Linux, is changing its name to Nura.

Coming two and a half months after qBittorrent 5.2.3, the qBittorrent 5.2.4
release improves the WebUI with a shared dialog for adding multiple torrents,
better support for manually adding peers, the ability to open http(s) URLs only
from RSS articles and search results to prevent modifying settings, and support
for using safe property for setting the element title.
Several issues with the WebUI have been addressed as well, including an XSS bug
in the add-torrent window title, a bug causing qBittorrent to select invisible
rows when doing a batch select using the Shift key, an in-place corruption in
the DynamicTable.loadColumnsOrder() function, and a Preferences crash with the
Italian locale.

⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Review: ReactOS
0.4.16⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧
posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Sep 28, 2026
Quoting: DistroWatch.com: Put the fun back into computing. Use Linux, BSD. —
I try out new versions of ReactOS every few years to see how the
project is coming along. Up to this point, I have felt that the
warning the ReactOS team shares in their FAQ document has been
accurate: "First and foremost, no-one should actually be attempting
to use ReactOS as their daily driver as it is an Alpha grade
operating system under heavy development now. This means that it is
unstable and possibly even quite capable of damaging your data." This
is a pretty strong warning and, given the stability and capability
issues I've had with previous releases, I tended to agree with the
team.
ReactOS 0.4.16 though feels like a different beast and a more
polished platform. It still has limitations (32-bit only, old
applications in the software centre), but it has advanced a lot in
recent years. ReactOS is visibly more stable, it has a unified ISO
rather than separate install/demo editions, and the performance is
quite good. While I couldn't run ReactOS on my laptop, it performed
quite well in a virtual machine. In fact, it performed well enough
someone asked if I would try installing it on their laptop when they
saw me putting the "free Windows" through its paces.
Basically, ReactOS looks like 25 year old Windows and it runs 25 year
old Windows software. These are tasks it does quite well and it has
most of the same features, settings, and options as 25 year old
Windows. It also has most of the same limitations as 25 year old
Windows. This isn't an operating system you'd want to run on a new
machine or use to run modern Windows applications. However, ReactOS
does seem a good choice for running old games on older hardware or
running old Windows applications in a virtual machine.

A day later
Over the past 3 days we've served an average of over a million Web requests per
day, but many of these Web requests seem to have been made by bots. It's
nowadays difficult to discern as rogue bots intentionally pretend to be humans,
they don't disclosure what they really are (no honesty or honour among
thieves).
Thankfully when we moved to an SSG or static pages 4 years ago and later (3
years ago) converted everything in Drupal into static pages the site became
gentler on the CPUs and RAM. Network activity remained the same, but it is less
costly so our team can manage the cost (collectively) and keep running the site
without hesitation or worries.
It has now been about 24 hours since our_team_added_"Include_TuxMachines
summaries" to Techrights_search. That feature has since then been used more
than a dozen times (including "TuxMachines summaries" in results).
At the moment we do not have native search in TuxMachines.org, but we probably
will have that one day. █

Shotcut 26.9 is here almost two months after Shotcut 26.7 with new features
like Automatic Ducking for audio, volume control, and an audio level meter/
indicator for timeline track headers, and a new Adjustment Clip option in
Timeline > Generate to create a dummy video clip to apply its filters to the
composite of all video tracks below it.
This release also adds FFmpeg 9.0 support, application.triggerAction(name),
multitrack.clipStart(), and timeline.split() functions for scripts, improves
audio quality by removing a conversion to 16-bit integer and keeping the
pipeline in 32-bit float, and improves the performance of the timeline for
moving clips, zooming, and undo operations.

Make a small compromise here, and a tiny compromise there, and
pretty soon you've backed yourself into a huge compromised
corner.
* ⚓ El País ☛ Europe_does_not_want_to_depend_on_foreign_technology_in_the
new_digital_order⠀⇛
The scale of Europe’s dependence is captured by one
particularly striking figure: 92% of Western data is stored on
U.S.-owned infrastructure, according to an Oliver Wyman
analysis of European digital sovereignty. The problem,
therefore, is not simply that Europe uses applications or
services developed elsewhere. A critical share of the
information on which the Western economy runs is housed in
infrastructure that Europe does not control.

Don't be afraid of the command line! It is a friendly and
powerful tool, allowing you to process large data and automate
tasks. Practically identical is command line also in Fashion
Company Apple macOS, BSD and other UNIX-based systems, not only
in Linux. The course is designed for total beginners as well as
intermediate advanced students. The only requirement is an
interest (or need) to work in command line, typically on GNU/
Linux computing servers.

This is of course a system administrator's perspective on the
question. What I care about is the operational aspects of our
fileserver environment, and each of these generational shifts
changed those to a greater or lesser degree. The size of disks
and the specific server hardware sort of don't matter, although
we did have to update our local management software to deal
with the new Linux servers.

It has two commands, search and export, and they cover more
than looking up names. You can check a symbol against your
deployment target, catch renames, and render PNGs without
opening the app.

Quoting: Today, we are celebrating sixteen years of LibreOffice's independence
and commitment to supporting free software, open standards and digital
sovereignty - TDF Community Blog —
Today, this robustness matters just as much as – if not more than –
it did in 2010 because the debate on office software has shifted from
licensing and implementation costs to digital sovereignty. It is a
concept that we have championed for over 20 years, ever since
OpenOffice.org began using the standard open ODF (Open Document
Format) file format.
At the time, the term ‘digital sovereignty’ was not yet in use, but
the issue was already clear: control over the format in which public
documents are stored, and how this format evolves, must not lie with
a single company, but with the community.
In this sense, ODF is the “sovereign” format par excellence because
it does not depend on the authority — and therefore the commercial
strategies — of a single company, but on the users — individuals,
organisations, and businesses — who use it and determine its
evolution through the contributions of experts within the independent
OASIS Technical Committee, which comprises companies, foundations,
public bodies, and individuals.

Quoting: Try Immutable Mode with openSUSE Leap 16.1 RC - openSUSE News —
openSUSE Leap 16.1 has entered the Release Candidate phase. Release
Candidate images can be found at get.opensuse.org.
We know that people really start testing a new release with the RC,
so this is the right time to grab an image and give it a try.
Users can expect that we’ll continue publishing roughly one build a
week during the RC phase. Once SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 16.1
announces their Gold Master, we’ll be working toward the Leap 16.1
Gold Master Candidate (GMC).
Based on feedback from the Leap 16.0 retrospective, we’ll sync the
Leap 16.1 release day with the SLES 16.1 release day, even if that
means a slight delay. This way, there is no obvious gap in receiving
maintenance updates after the release.

A few weeks ago I wrote about browsers removing XSLT, the

Chrome extension to keep them readable. Then I started adding

tomorrow_(hopefully)⠀⇛
The first release of Chromium 154 was announced recently

takes place. I was fortunate to be able to attend PTS
once again in 2026. We met in Vienna, Austria. This was
my 1st trip to Vienna and my 11th PTS in total.
