There's a lot going on in my GPU. I'm making a GPU Taskman to get insights to where my GPU memory is going. PRs welcome

The fighting within GNOME continues to escalateā¦ and it is, miraculously, becoming even more nonsensical.
āBigoted dog whistlesā
āTrans rightsā
āFree Palestineā
āPrivilegesplainā
Multiple people have had ātemporary suspensionsā (one week) due to āCode of Conduct violationsā. Which has prompted even more yelling for āTrans Rightsā and āFree Palestineā.
What does any of that have to do with a Linux Desktop Environment? Your guess is as good as mine.
Theyāre also bringing back their hatred of the Framework computer company, once again calling them āNazisā.
To be clear: A significant amount of this yelling is coming from long-time, prominent GNOME contributors (including the people who draft press releases and handle public relations).

Pete Hegseth's recent social media video praising Trump and promoting himself is an ethics mess.
It was produced by the Pentagon, and violates the ban on using federal funds for propaganda, the anti-lobbying statute, and potentially also the Hatch Act.

The Ubuntu 24.04 support drop is thanks to the native builds requiring some newer dependencies. Anyhow, thereās more to this Ghostty release than that.

ā¼ļø The git, curl and python3 in macOS still trust compromised eMudhra certificates, 11 days after Apple was told.
Anyone can recover their keys, so an attacker on your network could pose as GitHub and feed you code.
Researchers say macOS 27.2 even wiped fixes applied by hand.

Someone ported Haiku (the open source BeOS clone) to run on a Raspberry Pi 4.
Entirely with AI. With one prompt.
āThree days after the first prompt the Pi boots the regular Haiku desktop from its SD card or from the network.ā
Including āOpenGL, OpenGL ES 3.1 and Vulkan 1.3 on the V3D GPU through Mesaā, three different web browsers, and Photocraft (the Adobe Photoshop clone created by AI).
āI asked the agent it to deliver a working version of Haiku on Pi4 end-to-end without ANY manual intervention. Starting with just one prompt. The agent had to download sources, figure out build system, figure out qemu setup, figure out pushing images to the test rig, implement changes, testingā¦ and it worked!ā

A privacy-first DNS resolver just chose to leave an entire country rather than lie to its users.
Quad9 is shutting off its free DNS service in France on November 24, after a French court ordered it to block domains that BeIN Sports claimed were facilitating sports piracy.
Quad9 refused.
"We categorically refuse to alter or lie to you about the DNS responses you receive in a way that opposes your expectations."
The court had actually reduced the fine to just ā¬1,000 per day. Quad9 still walked away. Because the real problem was not the fine. It was the precedent.
Complying would mean either applying French copyright law to Quad9's global DNS infrastructure, or using geo-blocking methods that Quad9 considers technically unreliable and ethically compromised. Either way, the integrity of the service breaks.
This is what it looks like when a privacy tool takes its mission seriously. Most services would have quietly blocked the domains and moved on. Quad9 chose to exit instead š
