Linux-based phone still ‘runs 99% of Android apps’ so you can do more with it, if you wish.

A haunted closet in the already-haunted Rimsky-Korsakoffee House. I trespassed slightly to capture this.

Hurricane Bob was a Category 3 Atlantic hurricane which made landfall in the New England region of the United States in 1991. The second named storm and first hurricane of the Atlantic hurricane season, it formed near The Bahamas on August 16 and moved northward, brushing the Outer Banks of North Carolina before strengthening. Bob made landfall twice in Rhode Island on August 19, first on Block Island and then near Newport, before weakening over Maine and becoming extratropical in New Brunswick, Canada. The storm caused 18 deaths, left millions without power, and was one of the costliest tropical cyclones in New England history, causing around $1.5 billion in damage. The name Bob was later retired. This satellite photograph shows Bob approaching New England near peak intensity on August 19.

I recently converted a cheap, partially broken, E-PL1 to be full spectrum sensitive by removing the filter that cuts UV/IR light. Despite this being a relatively cheap and old camera, the 12-ish megapixels combined with the razor sharp 25mm (50mm full-frame equivalent) honestly delivers plenty of detail.

KDE Plasma is a popular desktop (and mobile too) environment for GNU/Linux and other UNIX-like operating systems. In addition to other hardware, it also powers the desktop mode of the Steam Deck gaming handheld. The KDE community today announced the latest release: Plasma 6.7.

A license verification certificate expires and when it expires, Microsoft Office for Mac assumes it’s unlicensed even if it has been fully paid for.

Western Australia’s Premier has expressed concern over the alleged recent harassment of pro-democracy supporters by Chinese officials in Perth, while the Albanese government insists it will continue to stamp out threats of foreign interference.

So, how would you like Tony Abbott to become PM again? This article’s author’s take is that that is exactly what he wants to do via ON.

The BOM’s seasonal model, called ACCESS-S, is tipping an all-time record later in the year with a peak warming in excess of 3C above normal, comfortably above the previous post-1900 high of 2.65C from November 1902.

More than 2,500 Australians died from drug-induced causes in 2024, according to a preliminary analysis.

With the recent AUR supply-chain attack that compromised over 400 (and possibly up to 1,500) packages, I’m seriously considering switching distros. Attackers took over orphaned packages and modified PKGBUILDs to pull in malicious npm dependencies like atomic-lockfile, which deployed credential-stealing malware and even eBPF rootkits. The fact that the trusted packages themselves didn’t look malicious makes this especially concerning.

Here, my summary of key features and decisions of Guix:

Hannah Montana Linux v26.0 is a modern remaster of the original Hannah Montana Linux. It uses Debian’s live-build and the Calamares installer.

Hi, Just wondering if Someone can help me out. I previously downloaded PIA but have uninstalled it some time ago with the sudo apt purge. However, I’ve now found that there is still ongoing network activity through the Pihole. I’ve attempted to look through the DPKG –list as well as the apt list which does gave “pia/noble 3.107-2build” (however purge states there is no pia installed), but can’t seem to uninstall PIA any further. Does anyone know how I can further uninstall any packages so that this is no longer occurring? For now ive blocked access through pihole.

Maybe younger people won’t appreciate this as much, having grown up when this weren’t so rare, but nothing quite illustrates to me how far Linux has come than browsing Amazon and seeing “Linux” listed as a first-class citizen on product images. Not buried in the details, not answered in a FAQ, but right there on the product image at the top of the listing. Many of you will remember having to dig through wikis and forums to uncover whether a product was compatible with Linux; and sometimes you still do.

China can already strike northern Australia with ballistic missiles deployed to its South China Sea outposts, and its capacity to hit the Australian mainland will grow substantially over the next decade, a new Lowy Institute Analysis warns.

A single support ticket allegedly became the entry point for one of the biggest EdTech security incidents of 2026. The Canvas breach shows how stored XSS, weak session scoping, and missing browser-layer defenses can turn a routine help-desk workflow into a large-scale data exposure.

Australia recorded its deadliest year on record for drug overdoses, according to a new analysis, with an average of seven deaths per day.

In short:

I’ve been running AMD ThinkPads for a while and always felt like the stock kernel carries a lot of dead weight, like Intel CPU/GPU drivers, NVIDIA, Dell/HP/Asus vendor blobs, server SCSI controllers, legacy filesystems, ancient WiFi drivers from 2003. None of that belongs on a ThinkPad.

A newly disclosed Jenkins vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2026-53435, is now being actively exploited in the wild. The flaw allows an authenticated attacker with relatively low privileges to POST a malicious config.xml file, abuse Jenkins’ deserialization handling, and route requests through Stapler to access sensitive files on the Jenkins controller.

The Ice Saints lived up to their name this year - sadly (not really) during our vacation. We still had a lovely day to take a walk around Eibsee at foot of the Zugspitze where I was lucky to catch a break in the clouds to snap this Pic of not quite the top of the Zugspitze. I really like how it turned out!

I took this a few weeks ago, waffling back and forth about whether or not I should really post it. There’s ultimately only one test for me, in what makes a good photograph: do I want to see it again?

Venus and Jupiter may have caught your attention lately. The recent close conjunction of the two brightest planets in recent evening skies has been hard to miss. With Jupiter at the top, starting on May 30 and ending on June 8, their close approach was chronicled daily, left to right, in the featured panels from Maharashtra, India. Near the western horizon, the evening sky colors and exposures used for each panel depend on the local conditions near sunset. At their closest on June 9, the celestial pair appeared to be only about three times the width of a full moon apart. Of course, on that date, the two planets were physically separated by over 600 million kilometers in their orbits around the Sun. In the coming days, Jupiter will slowly settle into the sunset glare, but Venus will continue to move farther from the Sun in the western sky to excel in its current role as the brilliant evening star.
