📰 When a billboard survives the wind, but not the boot

This GRUB is not an advert for some tasty fried food Bork!Bork!Bork! It's one thing to bare your undercarriage in private. It's a whole other thing to do so on the side of a road, risking the possibility that passing drivers will question your Linux competence.…

Windows updates in Intune vs. SCCM patch management—April Fools and human hallucinations

On April 1, Microsoft published a TechCommunity blog post explaining how Windows Update management in Intune differs from Configuration Manager (still widely known as SCCM). A Techzine author read the post as an announcement of upcoming changes and reported that "patch behavior is set to change significantly for Microsoft Intune." That framing is a human hallucination, as Microsoft's post does not announce any changes.

📰 CachyOS Delivers More Performance Out Of Intel Panther Lake

Most of my Intel Panther Lake benchmarking over the past two months for the new Core Ultra Series 3 hardware has been done with Ubuntu Linux given the pervasiveness of it, especially in the corporate/enterprise space. But for those looking at achieving even greater out-of-the-box Linux performance on Intel Panther Lake, the Arch Linux based CachyOS does a pretty fine job at further advancing the performance.

Удаленное выполнение произвольной команды в Emacs

Ошибка вызвана автоматической обработкой содержимого каталога a .git/, когда он размещён в одном каталоге с открываемым файлом. В этом случае Emacs при открытии файла запускает команды git ls-files и git status, выполняемые в контексте содержимого .git/. Для выполнения кода достаточно открыть в Emacs файл из каталога, в котором имеется подкаталог .git/ с файлом конфигурации config, включающим опцию core.fsmonitor с указанной атакующим командой для запуска.
Сопровождающие GNU Emacs отцы отказались устранять уязвимость, переведя стрелки на разрабов git.

Skyscraper brings Bluesky to the Linux terminal

What’s better than using a social network? Not using one, I suppose. Or using one in the nerdiest way you can. Case in point, Skyscraper. Created by developer Cameron Banga, Skyscraper is an open-source terminal client for Bluesky, written in Rust and available on GitHub. It does the core essentials – timeline browsing, posting, replies, reposts, likes and profile viewing. Though aimed at macOS (where it’s available to install via brew), Skyscraper compiled easily on Ubuntu with minimal setup – I show you how to do it, if you’re interested. But before we get that far, let’s answer the big […]
