    Rust Coreutils 0.0.30 shows impressive progress
    [11:12] schestowitz[TR2]
    [11:12] schestowitz[TR2]

    Ive namedropped the project here a few times here, but never called it out specifically in a post. Like Busybox, uutils coreutils offer another alternative to GNU coreutils. The aim of its developers is to replace many core OS components with safe, performant Rust versions. Crucially, they benchmark themselves against GNUs own tests.

    Although this proposal remains subject to approval by the Fedora Engineering Steering Committee (FESCo), a key governing body within the Fedora Project that oversees various technical decisions related to the distros development, its already on the table and has everything it needs to become a reality.

    KDE Plasma 6.3.3 Desktop Environment Released
    [11:33] schestowitz[TR2]
    [11:33] schestowitz[TR2]

    One of the releases highlights involves the Breeze theme and its underlying code. A key fix ensures that header colors do not cascade incorrectly when using non-global color schemes, helping maintain visual consistency.

    [11:33] schestowitz[TR2]

    Additionally, a small but welcome patch addresses a MinGW build regression for Qt6. Users will also notice that side borders now properly account for frame radius, making window decorations look smoother than before.
