Every time a zoologically-named package updates on my #Linux or #FreeeBSD box, I brace myself for the delightful chaos of the software jungle. Will it be a majestic new feature or a bug that bites?
I'm happy to annouce the release of 7 new versions of Linux-libre: 6.10.10-gnu, 6.6.51-gnu, 6.1.110-gnu, 5.15.167-gnu, 5.10.226-gnu1, 5.4.284-gnu1 and 4.19.322-gnu1. Linux-libre gives you control over the entire kernel - not just some of it. Free software is a movement built on the belief that software should be controlled by those who use it, not the other way around. https://www.fsfla.org/ikiwiki/selibre/linux-libre/#GNU#Linux#LibreLIbre#FreeSoftware#SoftwareFreedom
“For those wanting to build a Wayland-only Linux desktop experience without carrying any aging X11 baggage, GNOME 47 will be able to optionally offer Wayland-only support without carrying X11/X.Org support.”
How cool… does this mean there’s now a fully functional screen reader for Wayland-only GNOME or should we tell people who rely on screen readers to just suck it up?
You don't need to use third-party apps or websites to find DNS information. All you need is the command line, and you can get all the information required to report or debug problems. DNS plays a critical role in modern apps and infrastructure; hence, all developers and sysadmins must know how to use these commands to resolve issues faster. #Linux / #UNIX: DNS Lookup Command https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/unix-linux-dns-lookup-command/
How does Linux move from an awake machine to a hibernating one? How does it then manage to restore all state? These questions led me to read way too much C in trying to figure out how this particular hardware/software boundary is navigated.
