PH4NTXM :verified: @PH4NTXMOFFICIAL@infosec.exchange · Aug 05, 2026
Another small improvement to PH4NTXM. The Nuke Kernel now allocates available RAM and zero-fills allocated memory before powering off. The goal has never been to add features for the sake of features. It's to make every session end as cleanly as possible while keeping the implementation simple and reliable. Small changes. Big impact. Thank you. #ph4ntxm #linux #debian #os #live #privacy #security #opsec #infosec #research #tech #technology

Update... Update! PH4NTXM includes now an overall ph4ntxm-health cli, so you can check your identity and more, including score. Almost every important spoofed value is on your screen so you can verify at any mean time that everything is safe and as expected. Thank you! #ph4ntxm #linux #debian #os #live #privacy #security #opsec #infosec #research #tech #technology

This whole #KeepAndroidOpen thing (@keepandroidopen@techhub.social) has definitely not gotten the amount of attention it deserves. (Including from myself.) TLDR: Google wants to lock down (at the #Android #OS level, rather than at the #PlayStore level) what can be installed on #Android phones. That would most likely be the end of (legit) alternative AppStores like @fdroidorg@floss.social . Spread the word! https://keepandroidopen.com/ #FDroid #Keep_Android_Open

RakuOS Linux

RakuOS Linux Fedora-based atomic, bootc image-based operating system. Works like Fedora Atomic (your Silverblue, Kinoite, etc.), but you can use RPM packages like normal! RakuOS adds a persistent overlay on /usr so you can install any native RPM package and have it survive every system update automatically, no slow layering, no rebuilds. #linux, #os

Show some love for #OSS Stewards! 💛 In Open-Source-Ökosystemen arbeiten sogenannte Stewards an der Schnittstelle zwischen Wirtschaft, Verwaltung und Gesellschaft. Damit kommt ihnen besondere Verantwortung zu. Mit unserem neuesten Policy Brief fordern wir, diese bedeutende Rolle entsprechend zu fördern. Konkrete Empfehlungen an die Politik: 👉 sicherstellen, dass die im #CRA definierte Rolle im deutschen Recht so eingerichtet wird, dass sich bestehende OS-Organisationen – unabhängig von ihrer jetzigen Rechtsform – darin wiederfinden 👉 OSS-Stewards durch rechtliche Klarheit (z. B. Haftungsprivilegien), finanzielle Förderung (z. B. direkte öffentliche Mittel) und institutionelle Unterstützung (z. B. Einbindung in Cybersicherheitsstrategien) gezielt stärken 👉 die steuerliche Anerkennung von OSS-Stewards als gemeinnützig stärken Mehr Infos und Brief zum Download: https://gi.de/meldung/gi-fordert-anerkennung-und-besserstellung-von-open-source-software-stewards #OpenSource #OS #WirSindInformatik

Many technologies in modern computing have been influenced by BSD. Part 2 of this Andrew Oram series explores BSD’s contributions to email and BSD’s impact on operating systems and programmer tools through BSD Jails, Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF), and other innovations!

@Saorsa@neondystopia.world I aim to see one day where people can configure in the language of choice like nix or guix or anything else and choose the underlyingSystem = nix/guix and just like that it's enough to convert my whole os to guixos from nixos. Far dream, but since both systems are OS as Code, it's possible. #nix #nixos #guix #guixos #OS #linux

You CAN use other configuration languages like JSON or YAML for structuring Nix options. Though using Nix directly of course is the intended way of doing things. Suppose it would be a matter of developing a Linux distribution agnostic package manager that allowed orchestration in multiple languages. The closest you can get to that currently would be with Lisp and its many dialects. @vivekanandanks@mstdn.social Tags: #Nix #Nixos #Guix #GuixOS #OS #Linux

I cannot wait for European countries to impose a mandatory law for phone corporations to unlock the bootloader for their phones. I think this step will pave the way for mobile OS to thrive as #Linux did. #OS #Graphene #mobile #phones #bootloader

In the process of writing an article about the technical aspects of Windows 95, I stumbled upon a YouTube video called "Why everyone loved Windows 95: 30 years later". But wait a minute. In my geek environment of the mid-90s, not everyone loved Win95. Quite the opposite actually 😅 What was your p

@FreeBSDFoundation@mastodon.social I've started investigating #FreeBSD at (maybe) since 2.1.6 in conjunction with several other OS'es including #BeOS, #WinNT4, #超漢字(kinda proprietary package of #BTRON with huge font set) with several #Linux distros (Yggdrasil, Vine and Turbo as far as I can recall now). At the era, my personal daily driver was #OS/2. After IBM discontinued OS/2 and the successor, eComStation, didn't actually released Japanese edition (ordered one and obtained English version for temporary use until it's ready, but never happened), I needed to decide which OS to make my NeXT^H^H^H^Hnext daily driver, and switched to FreeBSD, which seemed to be most familiar with me. I've used several GPUs for XFree86 (and Xorg after it landed) on FreeBSD. At first, VGA/SVGA driver was too slow, so I purchased a license of AcceleratedX to use S3 GPUs (and then, Power9000, Matrox MGA,...) and some ATIs(!). When I've switched my daily driver hardware to notebooks, driver for new GPUs were mostly unavailable after AcceleratedX has gone. But fortunately, found that NVIDIA is providing FreeBSD version of drivers for their cutting edge GPUs and ports were already available. After that, I choose PCs having NVIDIA GPUs everytime I need to purchase one. I was happy for a while, but introduction of iGPUs caused headaches. There were too many screams that graphics/drm-*-kmod at their early phase was quite unstable and often broken. So I've always been looking for notebooks that can disable iGPU via BIOS / UEFI, but it became harder and harder. Now I'm using Minisforum MS-01 that allows installing half size, half height PCIeX16 card which doesn't require additional power supply with RTX A400. And noticed that I'm now one of the maintainers for #NVIDIA driver #ports on FreeBSD. Today, latest Production Branch of NVIDIA GPU drivers 595.84 landed onto ports tree at commit ec6b356f6328. https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/commit/?id=ec6b356f63289da87c9fbb52cdf558805383caf6
