A dashboard reports thirty-eight new vulnerabilities over a weekend in which nobody changed a line, because the attack surface lives in delivered assemblage rather than in your code: a distribution maintainer assembles a userland to their own knowledge, an image author picks it from a list, a software vendor bundles the image, an operations team pulls the… ## [What Isolation Actually Costs](https://vivianvoss.net/blog/isolation-costs) _2026-08-25 · Vivian Voss_ The Bench Marker, measuring the best-told legend of the past decade: isolation used to be heavy, Docker made it light, and light means free. On 15 March 2013 Solomon Hykes gave a five-minute lightning talk at PyCon in Santa Clara titled The Future of Linux Containers; at the moment the applause started, the isolation being announced had been shipping in FreeBSD's base system for thirteen years.… ## [Valuable News – 2026/08/24](https://vermaden.wordpress.com/2026/08/24/valuable-news-2026-08-24/) _2026-08-24 · vermaden · 𝚟𝚎𝚛𝚖𝚊𝚍𝚎𝚗_ The Valuable News weekly series is dedicated to provide summary about news, articles and other interesting stuff mostly but not always related to the UNIX/BSD/Linux systems.

Run tcpdump on a FreeBSD machine and before the first packet arrives it opens its capture device and its output file, limits the rights on both descriptors with cap\_rights\_limit, and calls cap\_enter; from that instant the… ## [2026 08 22 I Miss the Different Regional Cultures of America](https://stevengharms.com/posts/2026-08-22-i-miss-the-different-regional-cultures-of-america/) _2026-08-22 · blog-contact@stevengharms.com (Steven G. Harms) · stevengharms.com_ As a toddler, growing up between Louisiana and Houston, I remember listening to the radio with my parents, and the announcers would tell me one critical fact about each band: where they were from. I remember learning, later, on MTV, that Journey was from San Francisco. And in the street garages of the Sunset, the docks and warehouses of South of Market and Mission Creek, in whatever it was that… ## [Offscreen Colonies by Conspiracy](https://vivianvoss.net/blog/bytes-of-art-conspiracy-offscreen-colonies) _2026-08-22 · Vivian Voss_ Bytes of Art, on Offscreen Colonies, the 64 kilobyte intro by the Hungarian group Conspiracy that took first place in the PC 64k competition at Revision 2015.

Harms) · stevengharms.com_ Sam Henri Gold recently published a post about Apple's new MacBook Neo: a lower-power, but decidedly not less-than, version of the Apple hardware I've been loving for almost two decades now. It comes in at $599 , against the $3,000 to $7,000 you'd pay further up the line. In a surprisingly touching, insightful piece, Gold makes the case: yes, the Neo's underpowered, but for the person this machine… ## [FreeBSD backup libraries such as base/FreeBSD-kerberos-lib-backup-libkrb5profile.so](https://dan.langille.org/2026/08/21/freebsd-backup-libraries-such-as-base-freebsd-kerberos-lib-backup-libkrb5profile-so/) _2026-08-21 · Dan Langille · Dan Langille's Other Diary_ I build my own FreeBSD packages using poudriere. I do this for various reasons, which include: Getting security updates faster because I build nightly Some packages I install use non-default build options One of the monitoring checks I have in place will identify any installed package which is not in the package repository.

After all, if something is merely an unnecessary luxury, hobby or convenience, little is lost by making it expensive, difficult or impossible to obtain. But taken seriously, the same reasoning applies to almost everything beyond bare survival: comfortable beds, bicycles, spices, musical instruments, travel, gardens, powerful… ## [Browser De-Slop](https://www.sacredheartsc.com/blog/browser-de-slop/) _2026-08-20 · Cullum Smith's Blog_ Disable AI slop and bloatware in Chrome and Firefox. ## [Project Announcement: Klanghaus - The Missing Piece of My Music Setup](https://www.davd.io/posts/2026-08-20-klanghaus-native-ios-macos-client-for-music-assistant/) _2026-08-20 · davd.io_ This is a follow-up to my post Buy, Own, Stream - The "Rip, Mix, Burn" of 2026 from earlier this month. There, I documented how I found the perfect setup for my music library and while that remains true, I also noted one part missing in the experience.

BSD, MIT, Apache and the GPL grant the same four freedoms, all four are approved by the Open Source Initiative, and all four require the copyright notice to survive the journey; below that floor a licence stops being a licence and becomes an abandonment. From there the conditions form a staircase. Derivative works… ## [Why Scientific Papers Should Still Be Written by Humans](https://www.tspi.at/2026/08/20/sciencewritinghuman.html) _2026-08-19 · tsp · tspi.at_ The usual argument against generative AI in scientific writing is that language models hallucinate, invent citations, or simply get things wrong. With modern agentic systems that can search, retrieve sources, execute calculations, verify results, and iteratively correct themselves, however, this is increasingly an argument against using the tools badly rather than against using AI itself.

But let's not hang around too much in that muddied pond, it looks like they are on their way back. Reason for that optimism is my recent experience with Kalpa, the atomic KDE based on MicroOS. It taps into Tumbleweed for the latest software, it creates snapshots and… ## [Prod Only, Sorry](https://vivianvoss.net/blog/reproduces-in-prod) _2026-08-19 · Vivian Voss_ Lean Software, on the web framework that solved a problem the web framework had caused and on the repair that now runs on somebody else's estate. Client-side rendering did genuine harm, showing crawlers an empty document and people on older phones a spinner, and the meta-frameworks answered exactly that with serious engineering.
