[$] Enhancing FineIBT
At the Linux\‹Security Summit Europe (LSS EU), Scott Constable and Sebastian
Österlund gave a talk on an enhancement to a control-flow integrity (CFI)
protection that was added to the kernel several years ago. The “ FineIBT: Fine-grain Control-flow\‹Enforcement with Indirect Branch Tracking” mechanism was merged for
Linux 6.2 in early 2023 to harden the kernel against CFI attacks of various

In-reply-to » My open letter, to the European Commission digital markets act team:

@thecanine@twtxt.net I am not arguing you didn’t do the right thingℱ, and even if the impact is minimal, or nothing, you did what you thought was right (and I agree). I don’t agree with certain rules the EU wants to impose, not in this particular case. There are rotten potatoes everywhere, and I don’t get fooled by the EU often sacrosanct behaviour.

But who am I to say anything, right? Look at the grotesque clown utterly shit show we live with on this side!

In-reply-to » My open letter, to the European Commission digital markets act team:

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I submitted it via the form on their website (https://digital-markets-act.ec.europa.eu/contact-dma-team_en) and got the following response:

Dear citizen,

Thank you for contacting us and sharing your concerns regarding the impact of Google’s plans to introduce a developer verification process on Android. We appreciate that you have chosen to contact us, as we welcome feedback from interested parties.

As you may be aware, the Digital Markets Act (‘DMA’) obliges gatekeepers like Google to effectively allow the distribution of apps on their operating system through third party app stores or the web. At the same time, the DMA also permits Google to introduce strictly necessary and proportionate measures to ensure that third-party software apps or app stores do not endanger the integrity of the hardware or operating system or to enable end users to effectively protect security.

We have taken note of your concerns and, while we cannot comment on ongoing dialogue with gatekeepers, these considerations will form part of our assessment of the justifications for the verification process provided by Google.

Kind regards,
The DMA Team

USA stemmen sich gegen grĂŒne EU-Regeln
Der Zollstreit zwischen den USA und der EU scheint erneut aufzuflammen. Wie die „Financial Times“ („FT“) am Mittwoch unter Berufung auf ein Schreiben der US-Regierung berichtete, ist dieser die in Teilen zu grĂŒne Gesetzgebung der EU ein Dorn im Auge – besonders das geltende Lieferkettengesetz. Dieses wĂŒrde US-Unternehmen und ihrer WettbewerbsfĂ€higkeit schaden, wie es heißt. Ende Juli hatten sich die USA und die EU auf ein Zollabkommen geeinigt. ⌘ Read more

What #TheLEFT had to say about #vonderleyen ’s #SOTU speech?

There are several news stories going around saying that there are two no-confidence votes to Von Der Leyen about to be submitted, saying little to nothing about them, and even filing them together as if they both want or mean the same.

It might be useful to know exactly what the criticisms are, so here is a link to The Left’s comment to today’s speech. Read it in full, but here is my summary:

  • “acts as the guardian of the interests of the most powerful, at the expense of democracy, justice, and the future of the planet”;

  • Gaza: “The bare minimum is ending military cooperation and fully suspending the EU–Israel Association Agreement. This is genocide and we need to do everything to stop it”

  • pushing the MERCOSUR deal (they are actually light on their criticism of this treaty, but I’ll leave my rant about ot on a another toot)

  • the EU-US deal: “subjugation of European policy to the economic and military interests of the USA. You are sacrificing energy, digital policy, security, and climate protection on the altar of the hollow phrase of transatlantic partnership”

  • “Europeans’ living standards are falling, jobs are lost, authoritarianism grows, and social systems are under pressure”

“Later in the evening, posting on X, #Macron said: “I’m banning #socialmedia for #children under 15. Platforms have the ability to verify age. Let’s do it.”

French authorities are already progressing with efforts to force certain social media sites — including X, Reddit, Bluesky and #Mastodon — to introduce age verification, by classifying them as pornographic websites.

French measures forcing porn sites to verify their users’ ages came into effect on June 7, prompting the world’s largest porn website, Pornhub, to stop operating in France. Demand for virtual private network services, which allow users to trick websites into thinking they are in a different location, immediately surged.”

The “interception, carried out outside Israeli territorial waters, constitutes a blatant violation of international law, including maritime and humanitarian law.”

“Co-Chair of The Left, Manon Aubry (La France Insoumise, France) said: “Netanyahu’s army has intercepted the Freedom Flotilla against a backdrop of deafening silence from political leaders in Europe and the world. History is watching them. Their inaction to end the genocide is nothing more than complicity. We demand immediate action from European authorities to guarantee the safety of the crew and allow humanitarian aid to enter.”

The Left calls upon states, the European Union, the United Nations, and the entire international community to strongly condemn this illegal detention, demand the immediate and unconditional release of all crew members, and urge Israeli authorities to allow immediate and unimpeded entry of humanitarian aid to Gaza, in full compliance with international law and the orders imposed on Israel by the International Court of Justice.

New (February 2025) paper, https://cms.mgt.tum.de/fileadmin/mgt.tum.de/faculty_and_research/mppe/39_Nora_von_Ingersleben-Seip_How_the_European_Union_Fell_Out_Of_Love_With_Open-Source_Software.pdf , describes “How the European Union Fell Out of Love with Open-Source Software”:

“A coalition of determined open-source software (OSS) advocates and a handful of technology experts working in the European Commission set out in 2004 to end Microsoft’s monopoly. They almost succeeded. This article reveals how they managed to change the EU’s software policies, made Microsoft lobbyists work overtime - and in the end, and despite their best efforts, could not withstand the power of proprietary companies’ lobbying campaigns.

Drawing on the Multiple Streams Framework, the article explains the European Commission’s decision to promote OSS and open standards in 2004, and its puzzling decision to reverse course just a few years later, in 2010, despite its unchanged rhetoric about the benefits of openness. The analysis reveals three key factors that drove the changes in the EU’s policies.

In 2004, OSS advocates managed to frame the EU’s dependency on proprietary software as a problem – and the promotion of OSS and open standards as the solution.

In 2010, #Microsoft and other proprietary companies used their existing connections in Brussels to sow doubt about the maturity and cost of #OSS among #EU policymakers.”

I’ve just released version 1.0 of twtxt.el (the Emacs client), the stable and final version with the current extensions. I’ll let the community maintain it, if there are interested in using it. I will also be open to fix small bugs.
I don’t know if this twt is a goodbye or a see you later. Maybe I will never come back, or maybe I will post a new twt this afternoon. But it’s always important to be grateful. Thanks to @prologic@twtxt.net @movq@www.uninformativ.de @eapl.me@eapl.me @bender@twtxt.net @aelaraji@aelaraji.com @arne@uplegger.eu @david@collantes.us @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt @xuu@txt.sour.is @sorenpeter@darch.dk for everything you have taught me. I’ve learned a lot about #twtxt, HTTP and working in community. It has been a fantastic adventure!
What will become of me? I have created a twtxt fork called Texudus (https://texudus.readthedocs.io/). I want to continue learning on my own without the legacy limitations or technologies that implement twtxt. It’s not a replacement for any technology, it’s just my own little lab. I have also made a fork of my own client and will be focusing on it for a while. I don’t expect anyone to use it, but feedback is always welcome.
Best regards to everyone.

EU OS: A European Proposal for a Public Sector Linux Desktop (The New Stack)
The New Stack looks\‹at EU OS, an attempt to create a desktop system for the European public
sector.

EU OS is not a brand-new Linux distribution in the traditional
sense. Instead, it is a proof-of-concept built atop Fedora’s
immutable KDE Plasma spin (Kinoite). EU OS takes a layered approach

In-reply-to » Markdown and the Slow Fade of the Formatting Fetish - a nice article about Markdown VS proprietary formatting. With quotes like "Microsoft Office works in an office where you pretend to work until you can finally go home." 😄

@arne@uplegger.eu I’m very glad I only rarely have to deal with .docx & Co. And when I have to, 99% is in read mode only. Even though, I don’t think that Markdown is the best choice, I use it on a daily basis. Some things, like links, in reStructuredText are better in my opinion.

Jira just resists to switch to Markdown and forces us to use its silly markup language.

For real typesetting, LaTeX is the way to go. But I very, very rarely do that.

In-reply-to » Heute auf dem Heimweg roch es leicht gĂŒllig vom Stadtrand her. Is denn all wedder GĂŒlletied? đŸ„đŸ–đŸ’©đŸšœđŸ€ą https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=STPvOxUDekU

@arne@uplegger.eu Das ist ein recht zuverlĂ€ssiger Wetterbericht. Wenn die Bauern mit ihren GĂŒllefĂ€ssern hier vorbeifahren, weiß ich sofort, dass Regen angekĂŒndigt ist. :-)

Ha, das Lied gefĂ€llt mir außerordentlich gut! \o/ Mit Abstand das beste GĂŒllelied. Ich kenn noch ein paar schwĂ€bische, aber die gehen lang nicht so ab wie dieses hier.

In-reply-to » @lyse Nein nein, nichts plattdeutsches. "Eberhardt Eichhörnchen" ist eine nette Alliteration und kommt aus einem Urlaub von vor ein paar Jahren. Auf dem Campingplatz gab es ein Eichhörnchen und der Eberhardt war durch eine Handwerkerwerbung prĂ€sent.

@arne@uplegger.eu Ah, witzige Geschichte! Ich fĂŒrchte, der Eberhardt wird sich nun bei mir auch festsetzen. ;-)

In-reply-to » I watched two squirrels this morning for about half an hour: https://lyse.isobeef.org/eichhoernchen-2025-03-11/ They were super crazy fast. Also, they bit off plenty of twigs and carried them around, not sure where they put them. I've never seen them do that before. Once more I realized that I need a better zoom.

@eapl.me@eapl.me @arne@uplegger.eu @andros@twtxt.andros.dev Thanks mates!

Hmmm, Eberhardt. Ist das eine plattdeutsche Sache? Dass ich den flinken Nagern so lang zuschauen konnte, war ein seltener GlĂŒcksfall. Normalerweise sind die nach fĂŒnf oder spĂ€testens zehn Minuten wieder aus dem Sichtfeld verschwunden.
