The latest proprietary #VSCode extension that no longer works in non-Microsoft builds of the MIT licensed VS Code source code appears to be C and C++ support.

Your regular reminder: every day more of VSCode functionality is proprietary, and increasingly #FOSS hostile.

Bits from the Release Team: trixie freeze dates

a friend of mine just booted Linux on an Intel 4004! (yes, the first microprocessor)

"Linux would have prevented this!" literally true because my former colleague KP Singh wrote a kernel security module that lets EDR implementations load ebpf into the kernel to monitor and act on security hooks and Crowdstrike now uses that rather than requiring its own kernel module that would otherwise absolutely have allowed this to happen, so everyone please say thank you to him
After successfully booting the fresh install, everything works, yay, so I power off. Then I power back on, and all the lights on the panel are on, the fans are spinning at max speed, and there is silence on the serial console. Sigh.
Installing Cumulus Linux for the first time in close to 8 years. Had to read the documentation to figure out how to get the installer started. Feels weird.

Valve is seeing an increasing number of bug reports for issues caused by Canonical's repackaging of the Steam client through snap.

The best way to install Steam on Debian and derivative operating systems is to follow the instructions at https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/#getting-started and use the official .deb

We are not involved with the snap repackaging. It has a lot of issues.

If you don't want the .deb, please at least consider the flatpak version.
