Arch Linux announces a collaboration with gaming giant Valve, focusing on developing a robust build service infrastructure and a secure signing enclave.

The NanoPi M6 is a compact and open-source single-board computer (SBC) designed for high-performance applications, powered by the RK3588S System-on-Chip. Key features include an M.2 M-Key PCIe slot for SSD storage and an optional metal case with an integrated 3.5-inch LCD.

There’s no disputing how versatile the Raspberry Pi is. Not only is it useful for DIY projects ranging from fun to productivity-boosting, but it’s also terrific for entertainment needs like retro gaming or as a media server. However, it’s just not suitable for everything.

The input subsystem updates merged this week bring a number of improvements to existing drivers while adding one new input driver.

Tiny but useful tools that complement the cd command. Free and open source goodness.

Discover a step-by-step guide to install the different versions of Perl and manage them with Perlbrew on Ubuntu, with practical examples.

In the Overview of cross-architecture portability problems, I have dedicated a section to the problems resulting from use of 32-bit time_t type. This design decision, still affecting Gentoo systems using glibc, means that 32-bit applications will suddenly start failing in horrible ways in 2038: they will be getting -1 error instead of the current time, they won’t be able to stat() files. In one word: complete mayhem will emerge.

The Pimoroni Pico Plus 2 W is an upgraded version of the RP2350 microcontroller, offering more memory and wireless connectivity while keeping the compact form factor of the original Raspberry Pi Pico. It is designed for developers seeking enhanced functionality while maintaining compatibility with the Raspberry Pi ecosystem.

Using a download manager, besides the one on your web browser, is a handy trick that helps with effortless file downloads. Personally speaking, I have used quite a few over the years, with Motrix being my current daily driver on Fedora.

With the Linux 6.12 merge window wrapping up this weekend and the bulk of the new feature merges now in the tree, I've begun running some Linux 6.12 benchmarks. Here is an initial look at Linux 6.10 vs. 6.11 vs. 6.12 Git on an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X desktop.

AAEON SRG-CM4 is an IoT gateway based on the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 (CM4) with 1GB to 8GB of RAM and 8GB to 32GB of eMMC storage, all powered by the Broadcom BCM2711 quad-core Cortex-A72 SoC.

Learn how to install and use Grunt Javascript Task Runner, from basic usage to real-life implementation in web development projects.

Oracle released VirtualBox 7.1.2 as the first maintenance update to the latest VirtualBox 7.1 series of this powerful, free, open-source, and cross-platform virtualization software for Linux, macOS, Solaris, and Windows.

Ubuntu stands out as one of the most popular Linux distributions among web developers due to its stability, extensive community support, and robust package management.

VirtualBox 7.1.2 brings multiple GUI updates, including new window layouts. Unattended installs are now removed cleanly.

Similar to the ACPI CPUFreq and AMD/Intel P-State CPU frequency scaling driver and scaling governor benchmarks and power efficiency comparisons I routinely do on Phoronix, when recently having the Supermicro AmpereOne server in the lab with the 192-core A192-32X processor, I carried out some CPPC CPUFreq schedutil vs. performance governor benchmarks for curiosity and reference purposes while looking at the performance and power efficiency.

A new set of security vulnerabilities has been disclosed in the OpenPrinting Common Unix Printing System (CUPS) on Linux systems that could permit remote command execution under certain conditions.

We are very fortunate to have some really cool organizations like Proton, Tuta, Mullvad VPN, and others that have been consistently working on providing privacy-focused products and services.

MYiR Tech’s MYC-LD25X is a compact 39x37mm system-on-module built around the STMicro STM32MP25 dual-core Cortex-A35 SoC running at 1.5GHz with a Cortex-M33 core, and an NPU capable of 1.35 TOPS.

Dome Keeper is a real gem with a simple yet highly satisfying gameplay loop, and it seems it's done well for Bippinbits. Even though they're working on the incredible looking PVKK, they're not done with Dome Keeper just yet. Dome Keeper has Native Linux support and is Steam Deck Verified.
