Apropos nothing at all: Hey! I moved from San Francisco to Amsterdam two years ago, and I've never been happier. A friend wrote this guide for Americans:

I've got a Pixel 9 XL Pro. I used the night camera mode to take a photo in a very dark room, and it appears to have permanently broken the rear camera module.

New from 404 Media: Flock has cut off cameras in California, Illinois, and Virginia from national lookups after our investigations and others based on our reporting. Comes after we revealed cops doing lookups for ICE and an abortion case. Massive changes to this tech https://www.404media.co/flock-removes-states-from-national-lookup-tool-after-ice-and-abortion-searches-revealed/

I got laid off today. Eek!

It took a long time and over 60 articles but, at @lwn, we have finally managed to complete our reporting from the 2025 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory Management, and BPF Summit. If you want to know what is going on in those core parts of the kernel, this is the place to look.

We've put together an EPUB version of the whole set as well — good bedtime reading!

This is not isopropyl alcohol. It's also not 32oz.

I'm looking for a job!

To give a quick introduction: I'm Jamie, a designer and developer working in Open Source, primarily on the GNOME desktop for Linux. I'm an expert in GTK and Python, and have basic knowledge of standard web technologies (HTML/CSS) and static site generators. I also have some experience in technical writing and assisting others in creating apps.

If anyone is looking for someone in a related field, preferably remote (EU citizen), please reach out :)

I kind of just assume that everything is a scam, but this one is starting to seem kind of real...

Yet another creator I know has had to admit that they can't pay the bills.

The entirely-manufactured financial crisis has resulted in every business holding almost all spending: they're not hiring, and they're also not doing any advertising or sponsorships.

I'm able to weather it better than most, but even I've had two months of some ... "negative profit."

it lives! JVM in Bash

for now it only has ~5 opcodes implemented, and one virtual method (println). So this is literally the minimal amount of Stuff to get a hello world working

next up, conditionals?

God, this bubble burst is going to be so brutal

341 of the 733 changes[1] picked up for #Linux 6.15.3 could theoretically have made it into #kernel 6.15-rc6[2], as they were committed to some subsystem tree by then already.

Those are the changes that @gregkh meant when he recently wrote "[…] might also spur maintainers/developers to get fixes into -final a bit more as well :)"[3] (screenshotted).

[2] And thus could have seen two weeks of testing before 6.15 was released – instead of about 3 days that 6.15.3-rc1 was out.

Tired of "free" QR code generators that are full of ads and trackers, that share your data, and that want to sell you something? Me too. Here's my act of resistance: I made a one-page site that works entirely in your browser to generate a simple QR code. And that's all it does. You can download the HTML page and run it locally, even. Read the source; nothing up my sleeves. Just a QR code.

My offer to you -- I will continue to pay for the domain name and web hosting for it, myself. If you find it valuable, you can pay it back by creating your own useful thing for the world and releasing it for free. Let's take back the friendly web, one vexingly-monetized utility at a time!
