With the advent of version 1.5.1, the Raspberry Pi Pico SDK now supports Bluetooth Classic and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) on the Raspberry Pi Pico W development platform. As expected, following the announcement of Bluetooth support, a number of Pico Bluetooth examples based on a port of BlueKitchen’s BTstack became available. The Raspberry Pi Pico SDK ported example code retains the original BTstack C language format. However, most of the BTstack-based Pico Bluetooth examples that can be found in the public domain have been realized in MicroPython or Arduino. With that, the object of this discussion will be to produce a working C-language Pico Bluetooth Low-Energy example developed under Ubuntu 22.04 LTS using Visual Studio Code and the latest Raspberry Pi Pico SDK toolchain. You can obtain the example project source code from the EDTP Electronics download site.

The latest release of antiX is Linux how it used to be, in the good way. It's not the friendliest, but it does everything – and, wow, it's fast.
The "proudly antifascist" antiX project has released its latest edition, based on Debian 12. This release is codenamed Arditi del Popolo – "the People's Daring Ones" – after a 1920s Italian antifascist group formed to oppose Mussolini's regime. antiX is not, as the name might imply, opposed to the X window system: its main editions are graphical, with a choice of environments (although there is a super-minimal, text-only edition if that's what you want).

For decades now, software projects have relied on messaging APIs to exchange data. In the Java/Java EE ecosystem, this method of asynchronous communication has been standardized by the JMS specification. In many cases, individuals and organizations leverage Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JBoss EAP) to act as message-oriented middleware (MOM), which facilitates the management of message queues and topics.
Messaging ensures that no messages are lost as they are transmitted from the client and delivered to interested parties. On top of that, JBoss EAP provides authentication and other security-focused capabilities on top of the management functions.
Current daily builds of Ubuntu 23.10 only includes a handful of apps by default. These cover only the most basic of basic computing needs. This is the same install everyone gets.
For anything else the idea is that we, the user, fire up the Software Store (though the new one isn’t included yet) and install what we want ourselves.
As an idea, it’s not without merit.
But in practice, I think it’s a potential misstep.

ArmSoM has released the p2 pro, stylised as the ArmSoM-p2 pro on its website. Please note that ArmSoM is a Banana Pi subsidiary that produces single-board computers (SBCs) like the BPI-6202 and BPI-CM2. As CNX Software notes, the ArmSoM-p2 pro appears to be a re-branded BPI-P2 Pro, which Banana Pi introduced in March.
Thus, the ArmSoM-p2 pro is a tiny single-board computer that is only just wide enough to contain a 40-pin GPIO header. Additionally, the board's GPIO header supports ADC, I2C, SPI, UART, twin line out connections and a single SPDIF out. Moreover, the 40-pin header can handle eight microphone inputs or one PDM/I2S input. For reference, the ArmSoM-p2 pro measures 65 x 52.5 mm and weighs 30 g, in part thanks to the following ports...

Beginning in 1995 and for decades after, JavaScript was the only game worth playing when it came to web-based scripting. While incredibly versatile, JavaScript had its limitations, especially regarding performance-intensive tasks. As the web evolved, so did the demand for more power, speed, and flexibility in web applications. Enter WebAssembly (WASM).
Hello World!

The next patch set has landed, bringing the TenFourFox security base up to 115ESR. This includes the usual new certificate roots and updates to pins, HSTS and TLDs, as well as applicable security updates such as a full pull-up to the browser's SCTP support (not that this is frequently used in TenFourFox but rather to make future patches a little more tractable). On the bug fix side there is an update to the ATSUI font blocklist (thanks Chris T) and a wallpaper for a JavaScript-related crash on apple.com (thanks roytam1). Finally, basic adblock has been made stricter and is now also targetting invasive fingerprinting scripts. This adds a bit more overhead to checking the origin but that all runs at native C++ speed, and ensures we're less likely to get bogged down running JavaScript that we'd really rather not.
