Very happy to announce that @tomcoates and I have been given a grant to develop an end-to-end encryption (E2EE) protocol for DMs, including a reference implementation and a report to submit to the W3C SocialCG.

5️⃣ Here's the 5th installment of my series of posts highlighting key new features of the upcoming v256 release of systemd.

I am pretty sure all of you are well aware of the venerable "sudo" tool that is a key component of most Linux distributions since a long time. At the surface it's a tool that allows an unprivileged user to acquire privileges temporarily, from within their existing login sessions, for just one command, or maybe for a subshell.

"sudo" is very very useful, as it…

@pid_eins where can I read more about the "kernel's local identification mechanisms"? Or could you give a run-down of the possibilities here -- what kind of authentication can be required from the local user?

1️⃣ So let's try something new. As we are closing in on tagging systemd v256-rc1, let's see if I manage to post a brief mastodon item about major new features of the upcoming release, every few days until the final release of v256. I figure not everyone reads NEWS files, even if curious. Hence let's start today with the 1st post: the new .v/ directories. You know those .d/ directories that are quite popular in low-level Linux packages these days? While .d/ dirs never have been formalized properly…

@pid_eins Will all the content of these postings end up in the NEWS file as well? For me that's def a better place to read them, instead of bubbling around "social media". Yes I understand the value of discussion.

Google will require app bundles (signing key handover) for Android TV. Just a matter of time until this will hit regular Android as well. https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2022/11/app-bundles-for-google-tv-and-android-tv.html

@grote wow and ouch! so really no more developer signed apps on android TV?! surely it will it regular android then. so by requiring AAB they'll get at those apps that still haven't handed over the signing keys, right. like Briar :(

@jaromil sounds worthwhile. I immediately think of »migration» as something deeply intertwining this
