- Linux 7.1 Expected To Begin Removing i486 CPU Support5 April 2026, 4:56 pm
It's finally time: a patch queued into one of the development branches ahead of the upcoming Linux 7.1 merge window is set to finally begin the process of phasing out and ultimately removing Intel 486 CPU support from the Linux kernel. Anyone still using an i486 CPU with an upstream Linux kernel would be incredibly rare and no known Linux distribution vendors are still shipping with i486 CPU support, but in case you are, you can continue to be running one of the existing Linux LTS kernel version...

LWN recently reported on the Trivy
compromise that led, in turn, to the compromise of the LiteLLM system; that
article made the point that the extent of the problem was likely rather
larger than was known. The Next Web now reports
that the Trivy attack was used to compromise a wide range of European
Commission systems.
The European Union's computer emergency response team said on
Thursday that a supply chain attack on an open-source security

- [$] Ubuntu's GRUBby plans3 April 2026, 3:12 pm
GNU GRUB 2, mostly just
referred to as GRUB these days, is the most widely used boot loader
for x86_64 Linux systems. It supports reading
from a vast selection of filesystems, handles booting modern systems
with UEFI or legacy systems with a BIOS, and even allows users to customize the
"splash" image displayed when a system boots. Alas, all of those features come with
a price; GRUB has had a parade
of security vulnerabilities over the years. To mitigate some of those
problems, Ubuntu

- No kidding: Gentoo GNU/Hurd3 April 2026, 2:12 pm
On April 1, the Gentoo Linux project published a blog post
announcing that it was switching to GNU Hurd as its primary
kernel as an April Fool's joke. While that is not true, the project
has followed up with an announcement
of a new Gentoo port to the Hurd:
Our crack team has been working hard to port Gentoo to the Hurd and
can now share that they've succeeded, though it remains still in a
heavily experimental stage. You can try Gentoo GNU/Hurd using a
pre-prepared disk image. The easiest way ...

- SFC: What the FCC router ban means for FOSS2 April 2026, 8:21 pm
Denver Gingerich of the Software Freedom Conservancy (SFC) has published
an article
on the impact of the ban on
the sale of all new home routers not made in the United States
issued by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The SFC, of
course, is the organization
behind the OpenWrt One router.
Since software updates to already-FCC-approved devices do not
require a new FCC approval, it appears the FCC is trying to move
beyond its usual authorization procedures to restrict what

- [$] IPC medley: message-queue peeking, io_uring, and bus12 April 2026, 3:07 pm
The kernel provides a number of ways for processes to communicate with each
other, but they never quite seem to fit the bill for many users. There are
currently a few proposals for interprocess communication (IPC) enhancements
circulating on the mailing lists. The most straightforward one adds a new
system call for POSIX message queues that enables the addition of new
features. For those wanting an entirely new way to do interprocess
communication, there is a proposal to add a new subsystem f...
- Exelbierd: What's actually in a Sashiko review?2 April 2026, 1:27 pm
Brian "bex" Exelbierd has published
a blog
post exploring follow-up questions raised by
the recent debate about the use of the LLM-based review
tool Sashiko
in the memory-management subsystem. His main finding is that Sashiko reviews are
bi-modal with regards to whether they contain reports about code not directly
changed by the patch set — most do not, but the ones that do often have several
such comments.
Hypothesis 1: Reviewers are getting told about bugs they didn't create.

Ubuntu’s new default system monitor tool Resources gains a new icon. In the Ubuntu 26.04 beta, the app was still sporting its upstream icon.

Ubuntu MATE is looking for a new maintainer, with current project lead Martin Wimpress revealing he no longer has the ‘passion’ for the project he once did – nor the time, it seems. Wimpress created Ubuntu MATE back in 2014, pairing Ubuntu with the traditional MATE desktop, initially a fork of the old GNOME 2 codebase and layout but now very much its own thing. Ubuntu MATE was made an official Ubuntu flavour in 2015, and its first official long-term support (LTS) release arrived the follow...

Conversely, the Ingress API is simple, and implementations such as Ingress-NGINX extend the API through eso...
- Running Agents on Kubernetes with Agent Sandbox20 March 2026, 6:00 pm
The landscape of artificial intelligence is undergoing a massive architectural shift. In the early days of generative AI, interacting with a model was often treated as a transient, stateless function call: a request that spun up, executed for perhaps 50 milliseconds, and terminated.
Today, the world is witnessing AI v2 eating AI v1. The ecosystem is moving from short-lived, isolated tasks to deploying multiple, coordinated AI agents that run constantly. These autonomous agents need to maintain c...
- Securing Production Debugging in Kubernetes18 March 2026, 6:00 pm
During production debugging, the fastest route is often broad access such as cluster-admin (a ClusterRole that grants administrator-level access), shared bastions/jump boxes, or long-lived SSH keys. It works in the moment, but it comes with two common problems: auditing becomes difficult, and temporary exceptions have a way of becoming routine.
This post offers my recommendations for good practices applicable to existing Kubernetes environments with minimal tooling changes:

- Introducing Node Readiness Controller3 February 2026, 2:00 am
In the standard Kubernetes model, a node’s suitability for workloads hinges on a single binary "Ready" condition.

Today, on behalf of the Kubernetes project, I am announcing the Node Readiness Controller.

The most dangerous lie in tier-0 migrations is not “this will be quick.” It is “we can always roll back.”
That sentence sounds reasonable when you are migrating a stateless service or swapping a cache. It becomes fiction when the system you are retiring holds years of operational history, audit-critical records, dispute workflows, and the kind of long-tail queries that only show up when something goes wrong at the worst possible time. In 2026, the pressure is higher because data retentio...
- From Concept to Production: A Strategic Framework for AI/ML Project Success3 April 2026, 4:00 pm
The AI revolution has promised to transform business operations by automating manual work intelligently; however, it has fallen short of expectations.
MIT recently published a report claiming 95% of generative AI projects fail to deliver measurable ROI. This highlights a massive gap between AI hype and real-world success. When you compare this with the Project Management Institute (PMI) findings that 73.4% of traditional projects succeed, the difference is hard to ignore. This is not just a simp...
- Reducing Deployment Time by 60% on GCP: A CI/CD Pipeline Redesign Case Study3 April 2026, 3:00 pm
The Problem: Deployments Were Slowing Down Engineering
Our deployment cycle had quietly become a bottleneck.
Every production release took 45–60 minutes, even for small changes. That delay created hesitation around shipping frequently. Engineers batched features instead of releasing incrementally. Rollbacks were painful. Incident response was slower than it should have been....
- How Our gRPC Services Collapsed During Traffic Bursts — and What Finally Stopped It3 April 2026, 2:00 pm
Traffic bursts don’t look dangerous at first. Most of the time, dashboards are still mostly green while the system is already drifting toward failure. That’s exactly what kept happening to us.
For a long time, our services behaved predictably. Traffic grew gradually. Autoscaling worked. Latency stayed reasonable. Things felt stable. Then we started seeing short, sharp traffic bursts — often triggered by promotions or external events. Request rates jumped within seconds. Autoscaling never h...
- How Spec-Driven Development Brings Structure to AI-Assisted Engineering and How We Put It to the Test3 April 2026, 1:00 pm
AI coding assistants have made developers incredibly fast since the start of the AI boom, but this new speed often comes at a hidden cost. The IT industry is realizing that generating code is the easy part. The real challenge is building systems that are coherent, maintainable, and actually do what they were supposed to do.
This is where Spec-Driven Development (SDD) comes in. This methodology shifts the focus from vibe coding to following the general intent, using specifications as the new sour...
- Linux Finally Starts Removing Support for Intel's 37-Year-Old i486 Processor6 April 2026, 11:34 am
"It's finally time," writes Phoronix — since "no known Linux distribution vendors are still shipping with i486 CPU support."
"A patch queued into one of the development branches ahead of the upcoming Linux 7.1 merge window is set to finally begin the process of phasing out and ultimately removing Intel 486 CPU support from the Linux kernel."
More details from XDA-Developers:
Authored by Ingo Molnar, the change, titled "x86/cpu: Remove M486/M486SX/ELAN support," begins dismantling Linux's b...
- Russia's VPN Crackdown Caused Bank Outages, Telegram Founder Says6 April 2026, 7:34 am
Russia's "great crackdown" on VPNs — and a clampdown on Telegram's messaging platform — had an unintended side effect, reports Bloomberg. It "triggered the widespread banking outage seen across the country this week, Telegram's billionaire founder Pavel Durov said."
"Telegram was banned in Russia, yet 65 million Russians still use it daily via VPNs," Durov said Saturday in a post on Telegram. "The government has spent years trying to ban VPNs too. Their blocking attempts just triggered a ma...
- Artemis Astronauts Enter Moon's Gravitational Pull, Catch First Glimpses of Far Side6 April 2026, 4:41 am
NASA's Artemis astronauts are now entering "the lunar sphere of influence," reports NBC News, "meaning the pull of the moon's gravity will become stronger than Earth's." Now as they begin their swing around the moon, the Artemis astronauts "are chasing after Apollo 13's maximum range from Earth," reports the Associated Press, hoping to beat its distance from Earth by more than 4,100 miles (6,600 kilometers).
They'll begin their six-hour lunar flyby 14 hours from now (at 2:45 p.m. ET Monday). B...
- Internet Bug Bounty Pauses Payouts, Citing 'Expanding Discovery' From AI-Assisted Research6 April 2026, 1:34 am
The Internet Bug Bounty program "has been paused for new submissions," they announced last week.
Running since 2012, the program is funded by "a number of leading software companies," reports InfoWorld, "and has awarded more than $1.5m to researchers who have reported bugs "
Up to now, 80% of its payouts have been for discoveries of new flaws, and 20% to support remediation efforts. But as artificial intelligence makes it easier to find bugs, that balance needs to change, HackerOne said in a ...

That leak of Claude Code's source code "revealed "all kinds of juicy details," writes PC World.
The more than 500,000 lines of code included:
- An 'undercover mode' for Claude that allows it to make 'stealth' contributions to public code bases
- An 'always-on' agent for Claude Code
- A Tamagotchi-style 'Buddy' for Claude
"But one of the stranger bits discovered in the leak is that Claude Code is actively watching our chat messages for words and phrases — including f-bombs and other curses ...
- Hundreds of Theatres Show Apocalyptic-Yet-Optimistic New Movie, 'The AI Doc'5 April 2026, 10:39 pm
Hundreds of theatres are now showing a new documentary called The AI Doc: Or How I Became An Apocaloptimist. Variety calls it "playful and heady,"edited "with a spirit of ADHD alertness." The New York Times suggests it "tries to cover so much that it ends up being more confusing than clarifying, but parts are fascinating."
But the Los Angeles Times calls it an "aggravating soup of information and opinion that wants to move at the speed of machine thought." So while co-director Daniel Roher ask...

Meet the "journalist" who "uploads press releases or analyst notes into AI tools and prompts them to spit out articles that he can edit and publish quickly," according to the Wall Street Journal.
"AI-assisted stories accounted for nearly 20% of Fortune's web traffic in the second half of 2025." And most were written by 42-year-old Nick Lichtenberg, who has now written over 600 AI-assisted stories, producing "more stories in six months than any of his colleagues at Fortune delivered in a year."...
- Crooks Behind $27M in 'Refund' Scams Busted By YouTube Pranksters After Being Lured to Fake Funeral5 April 2026, 6:34 pm
One crime ring scammed 2,000 elderly people of more than $27 million between 2021 and 2023 using tech support/bank impersonation/refund scams. "Victims were in their 70s and 80s," reports the U.S. Attorney's office for California's southern district. Victims were first told they'd received a refund (either online or via phone), but then told they'd been "over-refunded" a massive amount, and asked to return that amount.
But 42-year-old Jiandong Chen just admitted Thursday in a U.S. federal cour...

11 days ago Apple launched device-level age restrictions in the U.K. There were some glitches, reports the blog 9to5Mac.
For me, the experience was an entirely painless one, taking less than 30 seconds. All I had to do was tap a confirm and continue button, and Apple told me that the length of time I'd had an Apple account was used to confirm that I'm 18+. Others, however, experienced difficulties with the process timing out or failing to complete. We summarized some of the steps you can take t...

"Google has announced that it's currently testing a new feature for Chrome 148 that could speed up day-to-day browsing," reports PC World:
[T]he browser can intelligently postpone the loading of certain elements. Why load all images at the start when it can instead load images as you get close to them while scrolling? Chrome and Chromium-based browsers have had built-in lazy loading support for images and iframes since 2019, but this feature would make browsers capable of lazy loading video an...

Plants, toads, and mushrooms "can all produce psychedelic substances," writes ScienceAlert.
"And now their powers have been combined in one plant."
[S]cientists have taken the genes these organisms use to make five natural psychedelics and introduced them into a tobacco plant ( Nicotiana benthamiana), which then produced all five compounds simultaneously. As interest grows in psychedelics as potential treatments for illnesses such as depression, anxiety, and PTSD, the newly developed system...
- 'Cognitive Surrender' Leads AI Users To Abandon Logical Thinking, Research Finds4 April 2026, 2:00 pm
An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: When it comes to large language model-powered tools, there are generally two broad categories of users. On one side are those who treat AI as a powerful but sometimes faulty service that needs careful human oversight and review to detect reasoning or factual flaws in responses. On the other side are those who routinely outsource their critical thinking to what they see as an all-knowing machine. Recent research goes a long way to forming a n...

- Quadratic Gravity Theory Reshapes Quantum View of Big Bang31 March 2026, 11:00 am
Researchers at the University of Waterloo say a new "quadratic quantum gravity" framework could explain the universe's rapid early expansion without adding extra ingredients to Einstein's theory by hand. The idea is especially notable because it makes testable predictions, including a minimum level of primordial gravitational waves that future experiments may be able to detect. "Even though this model deals with incredibly high energies, it leads to clear predictions that today's experiments can...

Where some attack patterns are mitigated, cloud platforms leave businesses open to new threats and vectors. The dynamic nature of these environments cannot be addressed by traditional security systems, necessitating robust cloud security for contemporary organizations.

- NVIDIA 590 driver drops Pascal and lower support; main packages switch to Open Kernel Modules20 December 2025, 6:53 pm
With the update to driver version 590, the NVIDIA driver no longer supports Pascal (GTX 10xx) GPUs or older. We will replace the nvidia package with nvidia-open, nvidia-dkms with nvidia-open-dkms, and nvidia-lts with nvidia-lts-open.
Impact: Updating the NVIDIA packages on systems with Pascal, Maxwell, or older cards will fail to load the driver, which may result in a broken graphical environment.

Unfortunately, this coincided with upstream reorganizing the symlink layout of the NVIDIA firmware, resulting in a situation that Pacman cannot handle. When attempting to upgrade from 20250508.788aadc8-2 or earlier, you will see the following errors:

With the recent split of kwin into kwin-wayland and kwin-x11, users running the old X11 session needs to manually install plasma-x11-session, or they will not be able to login. Currently pacman is not able to figure out your personal setup, and it wouldn't be ok to install plasma-x11-session and kwin-x11 for every
one using Plasma.

The main reason for this is to align with upstream Wine development, which simplifies packaging and the dependency chain.

The tech industry has failed to properly acknowledge this for years: Linux won. Not "Linux is doing fine." Not "Linux is making progress." Not "maybe next year will be the year of the Linux desktop." No. Linux won. Decisively. Overwhelmingly.
