    [14:34] schestowitz[TR2]

    One of the headline changes is the integration of Nexmon, a patched firmware that enables monitor mode and packet injection on certain Broadcom and Cypress Wi-Fi chips. So, with this release, Raspberry Pi boardsincluding the Raspberry Pi 5regain support for Nexmon. In other words, users can once again leverage built-in wireless hardware for sniffing and injection tasks, without relyi [14:34] schestowitz[TR2] ng on external adapters.

    Ladybird Browser Gains Cloudflare Support to Challenge the Status Quo

    [15:05] schestowitz[TR2]

    Its written in C++, and designed to be fast, standards-compliant, and free of external dependencies. Its main selling point? Unlike most alternative browsers today, Ladybird doesnt sit on top of Chromium or WebKit.

    [15:05] schestowitz[TR2]

    Instead, its building a completely new rendering engine from scratch, which is a rare thing in todays web landscape. For reference, the vast majority of web traffic currently runs through engines developed by either Google (Blink/Chromium), Apple (WebKit), or Mozilla (Gecko).
