:linux: After months of testing, weeks of writing, here is finally my new full Linux install guide: "Interim Install Guide: KDE Neon User Edition for a professional digital painter workstation": https://www.davidrevoy.com/article1145/interim-install-guide-kde-neon-user-edition-for-a-professional-digital-painter-workstation

Everything about Drawing Tablet, Color Management and Calibration/Profiling on KDE Plasma 6 Wayland, and all to survive the packaging mess with eg. built-in tutorial to revert version of Flatpak, scripts to beta-test Krita, and more!

The most complete article I ever published!

A photo of my workstation, three display: one of them is a drawing tablet with a display. On the screen: while coloring in Krita the character Litchee the Pink Fairy of my weekly comic series Mini Fantasy Theater. My cat, a red tabby, look at the camera while comfortably sited on his pillow, disposed strategically on the side of my desk for him to not sleep on my keyboard.

Got our solar panels cleaned by a professional, and I cannot recommend it enough. 20% more generation at the same time of day vs. earlier this week. 10/10, would buy again.

@adele J’ai déjà dû le dire l’autre fois, mais je vais le redire : ton SmolFedi est super pour parcourir mon instance Mastodon depuis mon PC portable désormais bien vénérable (un Core 2 Duo que j’ai depuis juillet 2009), là où passer par l’instance elle-même fait souffler les ventilateurs à fond, même longtemps (au moins pendant encore deux minutes) après que j’ai fermé l’onglet.

Vraiment, merci pour ça ! Puisse-t-il durer longtemps ! o/

@zzzeek The problem Trusted Publishing aims to solve is that if you let a pipeline auto-publish to PyPI for you, and it has a long-lived PyPI credential for doing that, it's very easy to accidentally expose that credential, and then an attacker who gets it can use it to upload packages for as long as it takes you to notice and revoke the credential.

Trusted Publishing replaces that with a more complex (behind the scenes) dance where the pipeline authenticates to PyPI and is given a short-lived narrow-scoped token. If it gets leaked, an attacker has only a very brief window of time in which to notice and try to exploit before the token expires.

“One approach, proposed by Google Research, is what you might call a “token auction.” In this model, advertisers don’t buy ad slots on a page. Instead, they bid, token by token, on the actual text the model generates. Each advertiser brings their own LLM, and an auction mechanism decides whose model gets to influence the next word. The output is a weighted blend of competing interests, shaped by who’s willing to pay more.”
