Thx to AI Linux will soon stop being a platform for retrocomputing hardware. Old hw support is getting deprecated to reduce the attack surface.

Meanwhile the Linux Foundation is creating its nth AI/crypto related group.

Rust is becoming a major part of the #Linux kernel. Even long time C veteran Greg Kroah Hartman (GKH) supports the shift. Rust is next big thing if you are into kernel or device drivers or other stuff where memory safety is essential for security reasons

Confesso que sinto um certo alívio por ter migrado do Arch pro Fedora há cerca de uns 8 meses. No momento não tenho tempo (nem paciência) pra gerir um sistema rolling release. E agora com esses incidentes no AUR então, eu estaria perdido...

Duda. Alguien sabe de alternativas libres a Android para móvil?
Conozco GrapheneOS, pero tengo entendido que solo puede instalarse en el Google Pixel? Es cierto?
También sé que existe el Ubuntu Touch pero que a veces da problemas con algunas cosas.
Cómo de posible es cambiar de sistema operativo en un móvil Samsung estándar y, en caso de no poder, recomendáis algo para hacer el apaño a android y capar sus tonterías de alguna forma?

Eu pedi para o Opencode verificar se existia algum pacote AUR malicioso no meu computador e ele fez isso

Que bão :)

Postei no BR-Linux to avisando, e é sobre uma relação entre as distribuições e a Microsoft, que talvez você não conheça

CERTIFICADO DA MICROSOFT PARA SECURE BOOT EXPIRA ESTE MÊS E DEMANDA TRANSIÇÃO NO LINUX

A expiração da chave UEFI de 2011 da Microsoft, agora em junho, exige que distribuições #Linux migrem suas assinaturas de inicialização.

Be kind to strangers, a MacBook reflection.

For a couple of months now, I've had a MacBook Air M4, and while macOS and me are never going to become best friends, I have to give it credit where it's due.

I got it primarily to run some proprietary software I want to use, and it replaced a Windows 11 system, which filled that niche before.

Since then, it has somehow become my daily driver, and here's how I think it happened.

1. The hardware is amazing to use (while also being atrociously to repair, I guess). Silent, performant, and efficient. Apart from the occasional, excessive Slay the Spire session, I've never had to hunt for an outlet. My experiences with Linux laptops have been quite different.

2. It's always there. I usually switch off the power at my desk when I'm done for the day. With the MacBook, the longest I have to wait to read mail or browse the web is for my monitor to switch on, while my Linux desktop needs to boot and makes noise.

3. Homebrew feels package-managery enough for me to be comfortable. Most of the FOSS software I use day-to-day seems to be in there.

4. Replacing Windows: I can use the system without an Apple ID. (How sad that that's noteworthy, and I wonder how much longer that'll work.)

I didn't think it would happen, but here we are.

Muitos acreditam que para rodar WebApps (PWAs) no desktop é obrigatório usar um navegador baseado em Chromium. No entanto, é totalmente possível manter sua autonomia e usar o motor do Firefox para essa tarefa.

Publicamos um guia prático no portal da Sociedade Pinguim mostrando como configurar e criar seus PWAs diretamente pelo Firefox, mantendo o ecossistema livre e descentralizado.

¡Adiós a los dolores de cabeza de Pop!_OS!

Al fin tengo el control total de mi PC gracias a una distribución limpia, ultrarrápida y siempre actualizada. Para los equipos de mis amigos y conocidos, prefiero la estabilidad sin complicaciones instalándoles un sistema derivado que es amigable desde el primer segundo.

How good is #Debian 13 #trixie for #blind users now? Esp. non-geeks? I need to install a PC for a #visuallyImpaired person and wonder, if I should go for #Gnome or something else?
