Windows 11’s false “Virus protection is off” alerts have no fix yet
Microsoft has confirmed that Windows 11’s “Turn on virus protection” warnings are false positives caused by a recent Microsoft Defender Antivirus update. Defender remains active, but the alerts can keep returning until a future update fixes the problem.

Anthropic’s erratic usage policy changes turn Claude Code’s 25% quota increase into a 17% cut
Anthropic is changing how much Claude Code usage subscribers receive, but its policy is difficult to interpret. The service uses weekly and five-hour limits rather than a simple prompt count. Weekly usage depends on factors such as conversation length, files, tool calls, model choice, and reasoning effort, so Anthropic does not provide a clear conversion to messages, tokens, or completed coding tasks.

OpenShot 4.0 adds colour grading tools, recording dock and Qt 6 port
OpenShot 4.0 has been tagged for release with a Qt 6 interface, colour grading tools and a new video and audio recording interface among its changes. The Qt 6 migration has been in the works for a while and while it doesn’t directly alter the way OpenShot looks – more on other visual changes further down – the backend bump does bring improved Wayland support and reliable fractional scaling. On to the new features. OpenShot 4.0 brings a new colour grading effect and a companion dedicated colour work view. This offers scopes for colour assessment, curve editing and colour wheels […]

Cancel your closed-source AI subscriptions: GLM 5.3 Flash is here
Z.ai’s GLM-5.3-Flash, previously tested anonymously as Ox Alpha on OpenRouter, combines near-frontier coding and agentic performance with open weights, local deployment options, and exceptionally low inference costs. Matthew Berman highlights the model’s efficiency—and the broader significance of its reported ability to serve massive workloads on Chinese AI accelerators.

Проект FreeCORE продолжил развитие дистрибутива TrueNAS CORE
Опубликован первый выпуск проекта FreeCORE, развивающего дистрибутив для быстрого развёртывания сетевого хранилища (NAS, Network-Attached Storage) на технологиях FreeBSD и OpenZFS. FreeCORE создан как форк кодовой базы дистрибутива TrueNAS CORE (потомок FreeNAS), в 2024 году переведённого в режим сопровождения, ограниченного исправлением ошибок и проблем с безопасностью. Развитие TrueNAS CORE было прекращено компанией iXsystems в пользу редакции TrueNAS SCALE, в которой используется ядро Linux и пакетная база Debian.

Linux 7.3-rc1 nears 41 million lines as AMD GPU code drives the surge
Linux 7.3-rc1 has become one of the kernel’s largest first release candidates, reaching nearly 41 million lines of source code. AMD’s new GPU definitions and driver support account for about one-third of the merge-window patch, making the release especially relevant for teams testing upcoming AMD hardware.

ALT Linux ID обзавелся личным кабинетом: управляйте профилем, паролями и ключами
В инфраструктуре ALT Linux произошло важное обновление. В сервисе ALT Linux ID теперь доступен полноценный личный кабинет пользователя.
Что нового:
Управление профилем, паролем и способами входа.
Добавление и управление SSH- и GPG-ключами.
Просмотр и завершение активных сессий.
Раздел «Уведомления» (в разработке).
ALT Linux ID уже используется для аутентификации на ALT Linux Space и Matrix-сервере altlinux.org. Расширение функциональности сервиса никак не влияет на доступ к репозиториям пакетов.
Важно: для членов ALT Linux Team с почтовыми адресами в домене @altlinux.org потребуется принудительный сброс пароля учётной записи.
Сервис на этапе активной обкатки. Сообщения об ошибках и пожелания приветствуются:
В Matrix-комнате #altlinux.space:altlinux.org.
В репозитории.
В треде анонса в архиве списка рассылки community@lists.altlinux.org.

Automate Graph permission checks—and avoid an Azure Automation SDK trap
A PowerShell script can now compare Microsoft Graph’s current permissions with a stored baseline and alert administrators when Microsoft adds narrower or new access options. The automation also uncovered a problem in Azure Automation: Microsoft Graph Files cmdlets were unavailable in the PowerShell 7.4 runtime, forcing a switch to direct Graph API requests.

11 российских аэропортов перевели виртуализацию с VMware на основанную на Linux платформу zVirt
31 августа стало известно о переводе инфраструктуры 11 российских аэропортов с VMware на российскую систему виртуализации zVirt. На сайте разработчика Orion soft опубликованы отдельные материалы о внедрении в аэропортах Уфы (orionsoft.ru), Шереметьево, Пулково, Анапы, Сочи, Краснодара, Кольцово, Казани, Красноярска (Емельяново), Волгограда и Внуково.
Во всех описанных случаях ранее применялась VMware. В качестве причин замены Orion soft называет прекращение технической поддержки и получения обновлений после ухода VMware с российского рынка, а также требования импортозамещения для объектов критической информационной инфраструктуры. Например, в кейсе аэропорта Уфы говорится о поэтапной миграции с предварительным тестированием и минимизацией простоев, а в кейсе Красноярска — о переносе виртуальных машин с VMware с минимальными перерывами в работе критичных сервисов.

Why Ubuntu 26.04 upgrades from 24.04 are currently delayed
If you’re wondering why you can’t do a directly upgrade to Ubuntu 26.04 from 24.04 yet, despite the Resolute Raccoon’s first point release being live, there is a reason. Canonical’s Oliver Reiche said in the mailing list announcement for Ubuntu 26.04.1 LTS that upgrades will be delayed by a few weeks to allow couple of backports to land. These will “address regressions in a recent version of rust-coreutils”. Users on Ubuntu 25.10 are not affected by this; upgrades from 25.10 went live in April. Unlike the ISOs, which target a fixed release date, upgrades don’t. Enabling upgrades from one release to the […]
