The third candidate for the releases of the Debian 10 installer “Buster”

A third unofficial candidate for the installer release of the upcoming major release of Debian 10 'Buster' has been prepared. The reason for creating this latest test version of the installer is the need to test last-minute changes related to the selection of recommended dependencies for kernel packages and the inclusion of the shim-signed package among the recommended dependencies for grub-efi-{arm64,i386}-signed packages. The Debian 10 release is expected on July 6. […]

Jaw and facial surgery or not? That is the question

Dear friends, we have already discussed the types of wisdom teeth, what happens if they are left alone, and how the extraction process goes. It may seem straightforward, but! Patients still come in for consultations and say, "Well, the doctor at another clinic said..." Suggesting that such complex teeth should be removed outside of a hospital setting, [...]

yescrypt 1.1.0

yescrypt is a password-based key derivation function based on scrypt. Advantages (compared to scrypt and Argon2): Improved resistance to offline attacks (due to increased attack costs while defensive costs remain unchanged). Additional functionality (for example, the ability to switch to stronger settings without knowing the password) out of the box. Utilization of cryptographic primitives approved by NIST. The possibility remains [...]

Microsoft is moving the virtual assistant Cortana to a separate application in the Windows Store.

According to online sources, Microsoft's virtual assistant Cortana will be completely detached from Windows 10 and transformed into a standalone application. Currently, a beta version of Cortana has appeared in the Windows Store app store, from where anyone can download it.

Pleroma 0.9.9

After three years of development, the first stable release of Pleroma version 0.9.9 has been presented — a federated social network for microblogging, written in Elixir and utilizing the standardized W3C ActivityPub protocol. It is the second largest network in the Fediverse. In contrast to its closest competitor, Mastodon, which is written in Ruby and relies on a large number of resource-intensive components, Pleroma is a high-performance […]

Waypipe is available for remote application launch based on Wayland

The Waypipe project has been introduced, which develops a proxy for the Wayland protocol, allowing applications to run on a different host. Waypipe facilitates the transmission to another host through a single network socket for Wayland messages and serialized changes in shared memory buffers and DMABUF. SSH can be used as a transport similar to the built-in SSH redirection for the X11 protocol (`ssh -X`). […]

The 'Entropy' Protocol. Part 6 of 6. Never Give Up

And around me is the tundra, around me is ice. I watch as everyone is in a hurry, but no one is going anywhere. B.G. A Room with a White Ceiling. I woke up in a small room with a white ceiling. I was alone in the room. I was lying on a bed that resembled a hospital bed. My hands were tied to a metal frame. There was no one in the room […]

Engineers are rescuing people lost in the woods, but the forest is not giving up yet

Every year, rescuers search for tens of thousands of people missing in wild conditions. From the cities, our technological power seems so enormous that it can handle any task. Just take a dozen drones, equip each with a camera and thermal imager, attach a neural network, and voilà — it will find anyone in 15 minutes. But that is not the case at all. So far […]
