Fedora 43 users install these RPMs to fix PHP: koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildin... Fedora 44 RPMs will be here in ~15 minutes give or take: koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildin... Arch has pushed the fixed packages to mirrors. No word from Alpine yet and I can't hit their git...
Oh huh, the guy who broke the embargo for the latest major PHP CVE has started posting about shitcoins and even a pump.fun link. Guess this was all just part of a crypto scheme, then! Fun (/s). #infosec #php #CyberSecurity

Subscription-based model for a mod launcher? Ban all modding, I will sacrifice myself for the cause.
A mod adding Project CARS 2 tracks to Automobilista 2 used to be free, now the links were removed and the tracks can only be obtained through a "mod manager" that: - Needs to be DL'd from Discord - Needs to link with Discord even for a free tier - Paywalls those tracks

People who know and have worked on Mesa, Fossilize, and video decoding on Linux should prolly get in touch with this journo too.
i'm working on a larger story about the state of video codecs in games based on this interview, would love to get as much input as possible from devs about the problems it causes (bonus points if a video editor can share their perspective on this, too). diego6arguello6 at gmail and my DMs are open

I understand framing the AI bubble RAM supply crisis in terms of stuff like video game consoles because nerds can conceptualize that but the framing does really undersell the sheer magnitude of how it's going to fuck up everything that even touches a computer.

Okay so I finally got around to reading the @fluxer.app dev's (long!) blog post and... his take on federation is literally the exact same thing I independently suggested. 10/10 this guy knows what he's doing. This is going to work.

Looks like Fluxer is removing the CLA!! 🎉 www.reddit.com/r/FluxerApp/...
Fluxer (@fluxer.app) keeps coming up as a Discord alternative. It looks good, but it has one major problem: It's AGPL and it requires a CLA. That is an enshittification time bomb. I personally will not contribute to projects using that combination, it's gone wrong way too many times.

Google seems to be in the process of splitting up Android and Pixels along with moving towards treating other Android-based platforms as their competitors instead of their partners. Pixels retain first class alternate OS support with Android 16 firmware so it's not about that.

In May, we began preparing to port to Android 16 despite our most active senior developer responsible for leading OS development being unavailable (bsky.app/profile/grap...). Android 16 launched today and porting is going to be significantly more difficult than we were expecting.
One of our two senior developers has been forcibly detained and conscripted to participate in a war. When they first went missing, we revoked their repository access as a precaution. We soon learned their disappearance was completely unrelated to GrapheneOS. Our priority has been keeping them safe.

Unfortunately, Android has made changes which will make it much harder for us to port to Android 16 and future releases. It will also make adding support for new Pixels much more difficult. We're likely going to need to focus on making GrapheneOS devices sooner than we expected.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
