Phoronix: Several Linux Kernel Driver Maintainers Removed Due To Their Association To Russia
it's a pity that politics is penetrating more and more into open source and FOSS.
recently support for Russian cloud providers was cut out of opentofu. https://github.com/opentofu/registry/pull/824
now this. this is, of course, natural the core and many components of modern distributions have not been free in terms of decision-making for a long time and are under the influence of large companies, which in turn are under the influence of the USA.

Linus Torvalds Confirms Decision to Remove Maintainers from Russia
You couldn't come up with a more powerful spit in the direction of FOSS. And from Linus, who is now kind of showing f*ck to the entire community. Here you have freedom, openness and all that. Today they just wiped their ass with it, and by one of the founders.
This is the moment when the split politics, dirty ones from all sides, have penetrated into the very heart of OpenSource - into the Linux kernel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_YozYt8l-g

Durov, as a citizen of France, recently sent them away when they asked for access, and then flew to them to test the strength of democracy. Imbecility and courage.

WinampDesktop/winamp - Licence violates github TOS · Issue #6
I was particularly pleased that the developers accidentally published a bunch of other code that they had not planned to publish. For example, the code from the ShoutCAST server. https://github.com/WinampDesktop/winamp/issues/11

by this logic it turns out that the code quality control system is built in such a way that if someone has malicious intent and wants to add malicious code, but is not affiliated with dubious structures, then he will easily succeed? Hey, what about enough eyeballs and shallow bugs?

Mozilla’s response to proposed remedies in U.S. v. Google | The Mozilla Blog
independent browsers that exist due to agreements with search engines.
How independent are you if you take money from Google? Don't take money from Google and then maybe you'll become independent. But now you're looking at a kind of second-fresh independence. Maybe if it becomes the first, you will start attracting users instead of only repelling them and slamming doors. Because you got hooked on the needle of Google money and eventually lost all your users.
They fired a bunch of programmers. I sincerely wish them to go bankrupt and go to McDuck as waiters for 1.5 dollars an hour.

Good thing the KeepassXC can be used as a 2nd factor authenticator, though it has TOTP only, doesn't offer HOTP.

“Systemd is the future”
“If you can’t win, lead.” Systemd development is in the hands of Microsoft employees. systemd has taken over almost all of Linux. Experts answer - in whose hands is Linux now? :)

Pocket shutting down
Imagine that someone collected and kept the bookmarks there, and now they will disappear. Another reason to remember that you do not need to store anything important remotely.

DATE=$(date +"%Y-%m-%d")
BACKUP_FILE="$BACKUP_DIR/backup-$DATE.tar.gz"

echo "Warning: Web server is unavailable!" | mail -s "Problem with web server" $ADMIN_EMAIL
fi
# Checking disk space

Ubuntu 24.10 Beta is Now Available to Download
I stopped using Ubuntu after they started to impose snaps everywhere and everywhere without asking me. Well, I don't need 100500 loop devices, understand, eh. Of course, you can not use it: delete snaps and disable the daemon. But the trend, of course, is disgusting.
