GNU/Linux

=> ↺ LinuxInsider ☛ When Betting on Linux Security, Look at the Big Picture

• Recently, an article crossed my path that made me smile. There’s not much in tech these days that does that, so I took a moment to savor this rare sensation.

• The piece by Jack Wallen on ZDNet pitched Linux as a refuge from the desktop OS security pitfalls of its competitors. I’ve held this viewpoint for a while. What impressed me about the article, though, is that the author bothered to make the sell to an audience of mostly non-Linux-using consumer tech readers.

Desktop/Laptop

=> ↺ ZDNet ☛ Here’s another reason why Linux is way cooler than your operating system

• Let me paint a picture for you.

• I was running a virtual instance of another Linux operating system this morning with VirtualBox. Everything was going fine (as it usually does) until it wasn’t. The virtual operating system prompted me for my user password (to run an admin task). When I started typing the admin password, things went a bit south.

• Essentially, what happened was VirtualBox locked up my desktop. It wasn’t a full-blown lockup, as I could still move my mouse. I couldn’t, however, click on anything or interact with the desktop in any way (besides moving the cursor).

• Sometimes, it’s just a matter of waiting for whatever is happening in the background to finish and control will be handed back over. That did not happen. No matter how long I waited, the desktop remained unresponsive.

• I know what you’re thinking. All I had to do was power down the machine, restart it, and get back to whatever it was I was doing.

• For any given MacOS or Windows user, that’s the logical process when the desktop locks up. But this is Linux and with Linux…there is always a way.

Audiocasts/Shows

=> ↺ Late Night Linux – Episode 244

• We can’t believe Proton has been around for 5 years, a bad sign for the Linux desktop long-term, the dilemma of whether to support your software on outdated operating systems, a laughable plan from WordPress to host your website for 100 years, and Félim shoehorns in some KDE nonsense.

Kernel Space

=> ↺ OMG Ubuntu ☛ Linux Kernel 6.5 Released, This is What’s New

• Linus Torvalds announced Linux 6.5’s arrival on the official Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML) as he always does, where he says that “nothing particularly odd or scary happened this last week [of development], so there is no excuse to delay the 6.5 release”.

• Read on for a drop more detail about the many improvements, enhancements, and merriments the latest stable kernel release brings with it.

=> ↺ HowTo Geek ☛ Linux Kernel 6.5 Released, Will Be Used in Ubuntu 23.10

• The Linux kernel is at the core of all desktop and server Linux distributions, from Ubuntu to Fedora, and it also powers countless other operating systems and virtual machines. Linux kernel 6.5 is now available, with some great improvements for newer AMD and Intel processors. You can expect to see it in your favorite Linux distribution soon,

• Linux kernel 6.5 enables P-State on some AMD Ryzen processors, which should mean performance and power consumption is balanced across CPU cores. There’s also improved load balancing for Intel’s newer hybrid CPUs — the ones with dedicated Performance Cores and Efficiency Cores, like 13th Gen Core processors. Beyond the processor improvements, kernel 6.5 adds initial support for USB4 Version 2, improvements for RISC-V, and progress on kernel drivers for MIDI 2.0 and Wi-Fi 7.

=> ↺ DebugPoint ☛ Linux Kernel 6.5 Released with WiFi 7, MIDI 2.0 Support

• Linus Torvalds released Linux Kernel 6.5, which is the latest mainline Kernel at the moment. You can try out to get the updated fixes and hardware support. After a smooth and quiet testing window, Linux Kernel 6.5 is now available to download.

• Let’s briefly take a look at what’s new.

Applications

=> ↺ Linux Links ☛ 6 Best Free and Open Source Linux Terminal-Based Archive Managers

• The granddaddy of archive managers is the tar utility (together with the ar and cpio tools). Tar was created in the early days of Unix and remains an essential utility for any Linux system. The filename extension .tar is synonymous with file archives. Other types of archive formats include .iso (for optical storage mediums such as CDROM and DVD-ROMs), .shar, .cpio, and .ar.

• We make the following recommendations captured in a legendary LinuxLinks-style ratings chart. All the software featured is free and open source goodness.

=> ↺ TecMint ☛ 10 Best Google Drive Clients for Linux in 2023

• One of the best cloud storage contenders to emerge is Google Drive – the popular cloud storage application that allows you to store data and access it from a Google account securely.

• Unfortunately, despite its popularity, Google Drive has yet to have an official client for Linux. If you are a Linux user, there is a good chance you are looking for a Google Drive client or alternative.

Instructionals/Technical

=> ↺ AddictiveTips ☛ How to clean leftover Flatpaks from Linux

• Flatpak applications are common on Linux. Users who install Flatpak apps from the Flathub app store leave data behind in their home directories. Data that stays there, even after a program is uninstalled from the system.

• This data can build up. If you want to keep your Linux system running in top shape, you need to clean it and maintain it occasionally. That’s where Flatsweep comes in. It’s a nice, easy-to-use program that can scan your Linux computer for residual Flatpak app data, and clean it for you.

• In this guide, we’ll show you how you can install Flatsweep, and how to use it to clean up the residual Flatpak data on your Linux desktop or laptop. To get started, ensure you have administrator access, so that you can install the Flatsweep program.

=> ↺ Own HowTo ☛ How to clean temporary files on Ubuntu

Distributions and Operating Systems

=> ↺ Giz China ☛ Get Ready to Linux and Roll: Explore the Top Distributions of 2023

• In one of my previous articles, I’ve told you some of the basics when building a PC. Apart from all the techy and hardware stuff involved in the process, the software also plays a great role! After all the pieces are put together, you will need a “brain” to make them functional. Right now, the most conventional options are Windows and Linux. The former is popular for general users while the latter is more in the cycle of developers and enthusiasts. Windows needs a paid license while Linux is open-source and free. If you want to try an alternative over Windows, and want to dive into the world of Linux, we are here to present you some of the best Linux distros you can try in 2023.

• Linux is secure and flexible, and for that reason is gaining more attention these days. It’s also an excellent option for those who want to dive into the development field. Linux is the core behind everything in this world, while a Linux Distro is an operating system that relies on the Linux kernel. Due to the open-source nature of the OS, you will find multiple Linux distros offering distinct features and visuals. A few years ago, it would be hard for a inexperienced user to try to use Linux, but times have changed. Nowadays, there are many user-friendly Linux distros that don’t require you to be an expert to use them. Also, the compatibility with popular apps has improved over the past years. For those who aren’t available on Linux, you will also find neat alternatives.

=> ↺ Medium ☛ Top Lightweight Linux Distros 2023 | by Technology Moment | Aug, 2023 | Medium

• Dear reader, we hope you are doing well, but when it comes to choosing a Linux distribution, one size, as always and definitely does not fit all. The beauty of the Linux ecosystem lies in its diversity, offering a pack of options to cater to different user needs and preferences. When it comes to light-weight Linux distributions, there are many options available in 2023.

BSD

=> ↺ [Old] Dante Robinson ☛ 4 Months of BSD

• Over the past 4 months I have been running various BSDs on my daily machine and I have to say I love it. I am coming from Gentoo Linux as a bit of background and I have been using Linux for about 5 years full time now, so I am writing with a decent amount of UNIX-Like experience. This will be mostly a discussion comparing BSD to Linux and what I like about and dislike about the various BSDs by itself.

• For those looking for a TLDR (To Long Didn’t Read) I will be sticking with OpenBSD for the time being and if something doesn’t work out I will be looking to move back to FreeBSD or Gentoo. I think BSD is amazing and the changes over Linux are worth making the switch.

Canonical/Ubuntu Family

=> ↺ Linux Magazine ☛ UbuntuDDE 23.04 is Now Available

• UbuntuDDE makes it possible to enjoy the Deepin Desktop with a base of the latest Ubuntu release. This combination is not only beautiful, it’s also reliable and secure.

• This new release uses Deepin 23 (from May 2023), which comes from the upstream Deepin Desktop Environment and includes some (but not all) of the usual Deepin tools (such as Music, Move, Calculator, Log Viewer, and Text Editor).

• You’ll also find Firefox, GIMP, LibreOffice, and Thunderbird along for the ride. As far as the kernel, UbuntuDDE ships with version 6.2.0-27-generic.

=> ↺ ZDNet ☛ UbuntuDDE weds Deepin Desktop with the latest Ubuntu for a beautiful, user-friendly distro

• Five years ago, I proclaimed Deepin Linux one of the most beautiful desktops on the market. The only problem I found with Deepin was its software center, which had a tendency to prompt users to install what could have been less-than-trustworthy software.

• That lack of trust gave a lot of users pause and Deepin fell off many a “best of” list. That same distrust also led to the birth of another Ubuntu spin, this one called UbuntuDDE — and it’s not only a thing of beauty but as user-friendly as Deepin was, without the concern for malicious software.

=> ↺ OMG Ubuntu ☛ Ubuntu 23.10 Fixes Blindingly Bright Wallpaper Faux-Pas

• That joke is now even flatter as, following respectable™ consternation (i.e. a bug report) about the suitability of the background, Ubuntu developers issued an update to the image. That update dials the brightness down a notch or two (and eyes everywhere rejoice).

• Those booting up Ubuntu 23.10 daily builds during the coming weeks won’t feel compelled to dive for their brightness keys as they’ll be greeted by the following (non-retina damaging) image…

=> ↺ DebugPoint ☛ 10 Best Dark Themes for Ubuntu Linux

• We all love a bit of personalization, right? Well, nothing adds that touch of charm quite like a sleek dark theme in the popular Linux distribution – Ubuntu.

The company also provides the MYD-JD9360 development board to quickly get started with the module and evaluate the solution.

Open Hardware/Modding

=> ↺ Tom’s Hardware ☛ Raspberry Pi Animates Sign Made of Phillips Hue LED Bulbs

• The decision to use Phillips Hue bulbs comes with its own challenges. They aren’t like regular LEDs in that they require a bridge device and a network connection to function. There are a few ways to integrate the bridge with this project. One involves creating a LAN for it to connect to while the other involves using an existing network to which you already have access.

• Amazingly, there are now at least two distributions which allow use of Dinit as the init system. One is Chimera, the other is Artix. These are both great distributions (but with different goals and likely appealing to different sets of users). A lot of the reviews of Artix on Distrowatch are mentioning Dinit in a really positive light, which is fantastic (Artix also allows the use of runit, OpenRC, and S6 as init system). Meanwhile, Wesley Moore has written about his experiences trying out Chimera Linux. He writes of Dinit specifically: [...]

=> ↺ Bugzilla Celebrates 25 Years With Special Announcements

• Well, response to that post was actually pretty enthusiastic in itself. I heard from several people who wanted to donate money to the project to get it going again. Which then led to a new problem: we didn’t actually have a legal way to accept donations at the time. So after asking around a bit, and a few conference calls between myself, my own company’s lawyer, and a couple of Mozilla’s lawyers, it was decided that Bugzilla needed a legal entity to manage it, similar to how Thunderbird has been operating recently. And, that’s where the little bit of time that I’ve had to spend on Bugzilla has gone the last 6 months. And as you can understand, with the legal work going on in the background, there wasn’t much I could actually talk about until all of the pieces were actually in place.

• August 26 was the 25th anniversary of the release of the Bugzilla bug tracker as open-source software under the Mozilla Public License (MPL).

Education

=> ↺ Thomas Klausner ☛ Things I learned at PerlKohaCon 2023

• Some aspects of KohaCon where “ported” to the Perl Conference part (e.g. free attendance as compared the usual fee of €100+ for PerlCon), while we introduced the Koha crowd to features like Lighting Talks. Generally it took some time (and two social events followed by more hanging-out-in-bars) for the two groups to mingle, but at the end of the event I had the feeling that the mixing / unification of the two communities started to happen.

• For me (professionally) this event was perfect, as we started to work with Koha a few years ago, and meeting the core devs and other community members makes working with (and on!) Koha much easier.

=> ↺ Rlang ☛ 6 New books added to Big Book of R

• Welcome to another roundup of new additions to the Big Book of R collection of almost 400 books!

=> ↺ Mohamed Ahmed: NVK YCbCr Support – GSoC 2023 Final Report

• This is the final report of the work I did as a Google Summer of Code 2023 contributor to NVK. My work revolved around the implementation of YCbCr format support, which came in form of enabling three Vulkan extensions. Mesa is the open-source, default graphics driver stack on Linux, with implementations for graphics hardware from most vendors.

=> ↺ Arthur Grillo: GSoC 2023 Final Report

• The GSoC journey is coming to a close. In just over 100 days, I gained more experience in open-source development than I could ever imagine in this period.

• Prior to GSoC, I was not used to regularly submit patches to the mailing lists. Now, I’ve sent many patches and revisions. I believe my interaction with the community will only grow. I learned so much about the tools and workflow of kernel development.

• After this experience, I’m more than certain that I want to make this a job, contributing to open-source is fun, so why not make this a living

=> ↺ Mike Blumenkrantz: Server Down

• gitlab is down, post low-effort blogs and touch grass until it returns

=> ↺ Syncpup ☛ Two Erlang patterns I love

• Although there are probably a dozen patterns in Erlang that I love dearly, there are two that I consider my darlings.

• Now, these patterns are truly two sides of the same coin, but each do have their specific applications and aren’t used interchangeably.

• But first, some background.

=> ↺ Jake Lazaroff ☛ Building a Live Coding Audio Playground

• My initial goal at RC was to build an Audio Units (AU) extension. AU is Apple’s audio plugin system, which works with apps like Logic and GarageBand. There are other plugin systems, 1 but I use Logic when recording audio for myself and for my band, so I wanted to try extending it.

=> ↺ [Old] Austin Z Henley ☛ Particle playground

• My most recent useless programing project is a particle emitter engine with an interactive playground. It involves a nice combination of mathematics and creativity that results in a visual reward. I’ve lost quite a bit of time by unintentionally getting sucked into tinkering with this!

• It enables you to create animated patterns from thousands of particles using a few lines of code. It works by automatically producing new particles every few frames, and you just specify the initial properties and the update behavior in JavaScript. The engine does the rest!
