They have been trying to work with the Flatpak people to make it a standard everyone could share. After half a decade of frustration I think they just gave up and decided to do it themselves.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Dirty Frag: Universal Linux LPE - allows any unprivileged local user to gain root access on a vulnerable Linux system - no patch available
16·1 month agoI’m not the person you replied to, but I would love to have more ARM hardware for running tests on. A lot of what I write needs to be separately tested on each architecture.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Copy Fail (CVE-2026-31431) is a trivially exploitable logic bug in Linux, reachable on all major distros released in the last 9 years. A small, portable python script gets root on all platforms.
5·1 month agoThe other LTS kernels didn’t get it until yesterday, and this thread has some good info about why: https://infosec.exchange/@wdormann/116489443704631952
Yes, both.
The architecture is really varied. You can get super cheap SoCs that are barely capable of running FreeRTOS, and you can get 100+ core beasts with EFI, PCIe, etc.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Microsoft Reportedly Looking At Rebasing Azure Linux On Fedora
8·2 months agoI’m pretty sure Microsoft has more people working on Linux stuff than Canonical has total employees.
Some Canonical employees are working on it but it’s not originally a Canonical project.

linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Wyd after drinking the bootloader slurpee?
3·2 months agoThat’s a systemd slurpee.
Try putting it on the speaker’s nose and jiggling.
Right now Asahi increases the value of ARM based Macs slightly since there’s another market of people who will buy them.
Once Asahi means that people can keep end-of-life ARM based Macs running, the calculation for Apple will change.

Linux@lemmy.ml•PowerVR: The Path to Open-Source Zink and OpenGL ES Support
2·3 months agoOpen source, mainline PowerVR drivers are a huge step forward for practical RISC-V machines.
It’s not that iOS is unsupported. It’s just that they prohibit browsers from implementing the features my webapp needs.

Linux@lemmy.ml•"The Internet Was Weeks Away From Disaster and No One Knew" - Veritasium
1·4 months agoYeah, it’s pretty much that Fedora is to Red Hat as Ubuntu is to Canonical. RHEL vs. Ubuntu Pro work a bit differently though.
This is why I built my own CPU from sand and a RISC-V specification sheet.
A distribution with first class KDE support, obviously 😛
Just another reason not to use Mint.
Heh you’re right, I didn’t catch the bitwise and, so I thought you were making a TypeError joke about comparing strings. Fixing the
andthough (which I did naturally when I typed it into my interpreter to double-check), we get the issue that they are just using a string for the time rather than a time object. “Too early” is also a valid entry that gets us an available office.
Idk it works for me.
Also
"8:00:00" > "10:00:00"



These days though you can just
