Hardening your servers not only makes them more resilient but also forces attackers to either move on or, ideally, abandon their efforts altog

FOSS Weekly #25.13: Kernel 6.14, Zorin 17.3, EU OS, apt Guide and More Linux Stuff

by: Abhishek Prakash Thu, 27 Mar 2025 04:38:19 GMT Rust in Linux kernel is not news. You already know about that. But Rust in GNU is a big move. It seems that a Rust rewrite of GNU's coreutils (meta package that gives us commands like cp, ls, dd, mv etc) will be included in Ubuntu's upcoming release. This concerns many hardcore Free Software supporters, as they see it a move to take GNU out of GNU Linux. What are your thoughts on it? 💬 Let's see what else you get in this edition Chimera Lin

Setting Up Ollama With Docker

Chris’ Corner: The New Web Safe

by: Chris Coyier Mon, 24 Mar 2025 17:03:34 +0000 Back in the day I was a fan of the “Trebuchet MS” font. I didn’t like it large, but set fairly small I loved the look of it. Looked very website-ish — if that makes sense. Honestly, at 12px, it still looks really nice. The main reason I would use it is that it was considered a “web-safe” font, meaning most computers had “Trebuchet MS” installed and it would look more or less the same across those computers. On my latest-version macOS

Support Logical Shorthands in CSS
