Linux removes support for the 486, and now I’m curious what that means for Vortex86 processors
I had to dig through our extensive archive – OSNews was founded in 2007, after all – to see if we reported on it at the time, but it turns out we didn’t: in 2006, Intel announced that in 2007, it would cease production of a range of old chips, including the 386 and 486. In Product Change Notification 106013-01, Intel proclaimed these chips dead. … ⌘ Read more

VPS troubles and the weekend
This weekend I went to the cottage with P on Friday. I hoped I would
have a nice weekend reading in front of the wood stove, but I had also
planned to spend at least a few hours trying to configure Maddy as the
new mail server for hack.org et al.

Then the web server I moved to the new VPS died. Again. I connected to
the VNC console and, like before, the Linux kernel couldn’t find its
root disk. A simple:

# mount /dev/vda2 /sysroot; exit

in the emergency shell solved thi … ⌘ Read more

Xtool: cross-platform Xcode replacement for Linux, Windows, and macOS
A few months ago I shared my Swift SDK for Darwin, which allows you to build iOS Swift Packages on Linux, amongst other things. I mentioned that a lot of work still needed to be done, such as handling codesigning, packaging, and bundling. I’m super excited to share that we’ve finally reached the point where all of these things are now possible with cross-platform, open source software. Enter, xto … ⌘ Read more

VectorVFS: your filesystem as a vector database
VectorVFS is a lightweight Python package that transforms your Linux filesystem into a vector database by leveraging the native VFS (Virtual File System) extended attributes. Rather than maintaining a separate index or external database, VectorVFS stores vector embeddings directly alongside each file—turning your existing directory structure into an efficient and semantically searchable embedding store. VectorVFS supports Meta’s Percepti … ⌘ Read more

Building your own Atomic (bootc) Desktop
Bootc and associated tools provide the basis for building a personalised desktop. This article will describe the process to build your own custom installation. ↫ Daniel Mendizabal at Fedora Magazine The fact that atomic distributions make it relatively easy to create custom “distributions” is s really interesting bonus quality of these types of Linux distributions. The developers behind Blue95, which we talked about a few weeks ago, based their entire … ⌘ Read more

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev

You need break the routine.

I haven’t really done that lately. 🤔 Maybe have another go at Rust (given its increasing importance in the Linux kernel)? Or Elixir, yes, I only had some very, very brief contact with it. 🤔

I just came across an old forum posting of mine about Prolog. That brought up some memories. Prolog is pretty alien, but I do miss stuff like that because it’s so different.

Just thinking out loud here. 😅

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz @quark@ferengi.one In 2014 one person created protocol ii. Later it forked in IDEC. Why i said this? Because it’s simple “federated” forum-like protocol where from your station fetch another every 5-10 minutes. Stations has topic-based channels like idec.talks, linux.16, haiku.os, zx.spectrum. In short it’s FIDO but.. more modern? Documentation: https://github.com/idec-net/new-docs (mostly Russian, but you can use translator, also protocol already translated to english)

Confession:

I’ve never found microblogging like twtxt or the Fediverse or any other “modern” social media to be truly fulfilling/satisfying.

The reason is that it is focused so much on people. You follow this or that person, everybody spends time making a nice profile page, the posts are all very “ego-centric”. Seriously, it feels like everybody is on an ego-trip all the time (this is much worse on the Fediverse, not so much here on twtxt).

I miss the days of topic-based forums/groups. A Linux forum here, a forum about programming there, another one about a certain game. Stuff like that. That was really great – and it didn’t even suffer from the need to federate.

Sadly, most of these forums are dead now. Especially the nerds spend a lot of time on the Fediverse now and have abandoned forums almost completely.

On Mastodon, you can follow hashtags, which somewhat emulates a topic-based experience. But it’s not that great and the protocol isn’t meant to be used that way (just read the snac2 docs on this issue). And the concept of “likes” has eliminated lots of the actual user interaction. ☹️

PewDiePie | I installed linux
All I can say is.. what? I’m not even sure why this popped up in my youtube frontpage. I don’t generally watch PewDiePie, but in all honesty, it’s a pretty glowing review of Linux, Arch, Hyprland and more. He points out some warts and things here and there around compatibility, but all in all, “PewDiePie takes aim at Microsoft” was not on my 2025 Bingo card…

Run x86-64 games on RISC-V with felix86
If RISC-V ever manages to take off, this is going to be an important tool in RISC-V users’ toolbox: felix86 is an x86-64 userspace emulator for RISC-V. felix86 emulates an x86-64 CPU running in userspace, which is to say it is not a virtual machine like VMware, rather it directly translates the instructions of an application and mostly uses the host Linux kernel to handle syscalls. Currently, translation happens during execution time, also known as jus … ⌘ Read more

PATH isn’t real on Linux
I have no idea how much relevance this short but informative rundown of how PATH works in Linux has in the real world, but I found it incredibly interesting and enlightening. The basic gist – and I might be wrong, there’s code involved and I’m not very smart – is that Linux itself needs absolute paths to binaries, while shells and programming languages do not. In other words, the Linux kernel does not know about PATH, and any lookup you’re doing comes from either the shell or the pr … ⌘ Read more
