I tried running #Linux on an #AppleSilicon #Mac and regretted it
#AsahiLinux is the best (and only) way to run Linux on a Mac
The thing about Apple silicon Macs is that it's not as simple as downloading an #AArch64 ISO of your favorite distro and installing it. Yes, the M-series chips are ARM-based, but that doesn't automatically make the whole system compatible in the same way most traditional x86 PCs are. Pretty much everything in modern MacBooks is custom.

FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE-p3 on ARM64 in QEMU:

― SDDM, pictured, is barely usable.

After login to Plasma (X11), resolution is limited to 800 x 600.

How can I avoid the issue with SDDM?

Host: Kubuntu 25.10, Virtual Machine Manager with Ramfb for video. Guest: non-base packages from the latest repos.

Not reproducible with FreeBSD 16.0-CURRENT on ARM64 in QEMU on the same host.

This afternoon's fun: pwning NetBSD-aarch64 (ARM)

(venv-pwn) qnetbsd$ python3 -c 'from pwn import * ; p = b"A" * 16 + p64(0x2001009f4); sys.stdout.buffer.write(p)' | ./win2
What is your name? Hello AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA�
Goodbye, winner.

[Перевод] Оптимизация Java-приложений для Arm64 в облаке

JVM в облаке часто экономит память и CPU по дефолту, из-за чего Spring-сервис использует меньше ресурсов, чем вы ему выделили. В новом переводе от команды Spring АйО разберем, какие существуют базовые настройки кучи, GC и CPU помогают синхронизировать JVM с лимитами контейнера и не переплачивать за простаивающие ресурсы.

Surprisingly there isn't actually a good networkd single plane of glass cli. So I wrote one. https://codeberg.org/aenertia/rxnm #libreelec #rocknix #linux #networking #embeded #aarch64 #systemd

rxnm

RXNM is a lightweight, modular CLI wrapper for systemd-networkd and iwd, optimized for low-power ARM devices (specifically RK3326/RK3566 handhelds) but compatible with general Linux environments.
