Vivaldi 8.2 is out with a calculator in the address bar

Vivaldi 8.2 rolled out today (3 September 2026) and lets you do quick and private math calculations directly in the address bar. This may prove useful when you don’t want to open to a new tab or a calculator app. I’ve often narrowed my eyes at an online checkout page after applying a coupon code (don’t judge), muttering “that can’t be right”. A quick number crunch later and, of course, it always is. You can click to copy the the result to your system clipboard, ready to paste elsewhere. Previous versions Vivaldi let you do local calculations from the Quick Commands menu, […]

📰 Malicious .git Configs Can Make Claude, Codex, Cursor, and Other AI Agents Run Attacker Code

Manifold Security has disclosed eight security flaws across seven command-line AI coding agents in which a repository's own Git configuration names a command that the agent runs on the developer's machine, four of them still unpatched at publication.The command executes as the user, outside the agent's sandbox and without an approval prompt, and exploitation requires the repository to arrive.

‍CERN переводит более 2200 систем управления ускорителями с RHEL-семейства на Debian 13

30 августа на MiniDebConf Winterthur 2026 инженеры CERN Федерико Вага и Никос Ципинакис представили доклад «Controlling CERN’s Accelerators with Debian», посвящённый переводу компьютеров системы управления ускорительным комплексом с дистрибутивов семейства Red Hat на Debian. Согласно опубликованным CERN материалам, до конца 2026 года Debian 13 должен быть установлен более чем на 2200 промышленных компьютерах и встраиваемых системах. 1 сентября это отдельно подтвердила Debian Publicity Team.
При этом речь не идёт о полном отказе CERN от RHEL или AlmaLinux. В начале презентации авторы специально вынесли на отдельные слайды фразы «WE WILL NOT TALK ABOUT DATA CENTERS» и «WE WILL NOT TALK ABOUT EXPERIMENTS»: миграция касается прежде всего Front-End Computers (FEC), непосредственно управляющих оборудованием ускорителей. В документации Linux @ CERN RHEL и AlmaLinux по-прежнему перечислены среди поддерживаемых систем, а для AlmaLinux 9 и 10 продолжает поддерживаться интеграция с инфраструктурой CERN. Таким образом, заголовки о полном «прощании с Red Hat и IBM» несколько преувеличивают масштаб изменений.

📰 CERN Transitioning To Debian After Being A Longtime RHEL Institution

CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, besides being well known for its Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is known among longtime Linux users as a RHEL/CentOS shop. CERN formally even co-maintained the Scientific Linux RHEL derivative with other educational/research institutions in the past. So to much surprise now, CERN is transitioning to Debian Linux...

Представлен дистрибутив Amazon Linux 2027

Компания Amazon начала тестирование дистрибутива Amazon Linux 2027 (AL2027), оптимизированного для облачных окружений и поддерживающего интеграцию с инструментами и расширенными возможностями сервиса Amazon EC2. В качестве основы задействована пакетная база Fedora Linux. Сборки формируются для архитектур x86_64 и ARM64 (Aarch64). Несмотря на первостепенную ориентацию на использование в AWS (Amazon Web Services), дистрибутив также поставляется в форме универсального образа виртуальной машины, который можно запустить на локальной системе или в других облачных окружениях.

📰 I ditched my Raspberry Pi for an old Android phone, and my self-hosted services finally stopped throttling

When I think of cheap, tiny, and portable hardware for small homelab services, the Raspberry Pi is the first thing that comes to my mind. And if I visit a homelab thread on a tech forum, Pi comes up as a settled recommendation, not something to question again.
