📰 I spent weeks chasing a DisplayPort problem that HDMI solved in seconds

DisplayPort has largely been the primary cable PC enthusiasts reach for, and for good reason. It has better bandwidth than the HDMI of its era, native VRR before HDMI caught up, and there's no royalty funny business or weird treatment of Linux drivers. When I upgraded from my 1440p IPS display to a 4K OLED, I reached for DisplayPort once more. I plugged it in, set my refresh rate on the "Gaming Mode" of my Samsung Odyssey G8 to 240Hz, and...

Vivaldi 8.0 is out with a dramatic new look and UI layouts

A bold new look arrives in Vivaldi 8.0, the latest update to the Chromium-based web browser. Vivaldi 8.0 sees the browser’s main UI elements (the bits that make a browser looks like a browser, so tabs, toolbars, panels, and content) drop their boundaries to form a continuous look. Hence the named Unified. “Unified is not a visual refresh. It is a rethinking of how the Vivaldi interface works as a system” the company says in its press release (a suspiciously AI-sounding parallelism that falls apart when your brain moves past ‘that sounds impressive’ since er, it is actually a visual […]

Релиз OpenBSD 7.9

Представлен выпуск свободной UNIX-подобной операционной системы OpenBSD 7.9. Проект OpenBSD был основан Тэо де Раадтом (Theo de Raadt) в 1995 году после конфликта с разработчиками NetBSD, в результате которого для Тэо был закрыт доступ к CVS репозиторию NetBSD. После этого Тэо де Раадт с группой единомышленников создал на базе дерева исходных текстов NetBSD новую открытую операционную систему, главными целями развития которой стали переносимость (поддерживается 13 аппаратных платформ), стандартизация, корректная работа, проактивная безопасность и интегрированные криптографические средства. Размер полного установочного ISO-образа базовой системы OpenBSD 7.9 составляет 597 МБ.

Free Windows Server 2025 hotpatching with Azure Arc

Microsoft now offers Windows Server 2025 hotpatching through Azure Arc at no additional charge for eligible Azure Arc-enabled servers. Hotpatching installs Windows security updates without restarting the server in most months, but it does not eliminate all reboots. You still need Azure Arc, the Azure Connected Machine agent, Virtualization-based Security, and a supported Windows Server 2025 edition. This article explains what those requirements mean, how to enable the feature, and where its limits are.

Exchange Hybrid after EWS retirement: Upgrade to Exchange SE and move to Microsoft Graph

Microsoft is shutting down Exchange Web Services (EWS) — the nearly 20-year-old API that Exchange uses for hybrid coexistence — in Exchange Online in two phases: a soft block on October 1, 2026, and a permanent hard shutdown on April 1, 2027. If you run Exchange in hybrid mode, meaning some mailboxes are on-premises and some are in Microsoft 365, this requires a two-step migration. The first step should already be complete; the second step must be finished before October 2026 and requires Exchange Server Subscription Edition (SE). Microsoft has confirmed there will be no exceptions past April 2027.

ONLYOFFICE 9.4 brings new features – and a stricter licence

A new version of ONLYOFFICE, the open-source productivity suite, is out with a small set of improvements. The new release lands nearly two months after ONLYOFFICE suspended its eight-year Nextcloud partnership over Euro-Office, a fork by a European consortium that ONLYOFFICE says violates its AGPLv3 licence terms. Totally unrelated (yes, sarcasm), ONLYOFFICE 9.4 updates its licensing to tighten language around attribution, copyright notices and the labelling of modified versions. Viva le fork; it still permits modifications, but is more sniffy about use of its trademarks. Features-wise, ONLYOFFICE 9.4.0 adds Croatian language translations across all editors and shuffles chart settings out […]
