Fed up with complex note taking apps? Try Whisp for Linux

New GTK4/libadwaita app Whisp is positioning itself as the note-taking app for people fed up with note-taking apps (the best one is always the next one, right?). Scratch that; Whisp pitches itself as “the anti-note for GNOME”, a riff on Antinote, a macOS app with a similar look and feature set. Developer Tanay Bhomia describes it as “a fluid, gesture-driven scratchpad designed for absolute speed”. The website takes shots at the complexity of Obsidian and Notion, though Whisp isn’t out to compete with either. It’s there as a foil to complex databases, folder hierarchies and the corkboard-and-red-string complexity of obsessively cross-referenced notes. I […]

Firefox 152.0.3 с устранением регрессии в 152.0.2, приводящей к зависанию

Сформировано экстренное корректирующее обновление Firefox 152.0.3, в котором устранена ошибка, приводящая к зависанию при запуске и бесконтрольному потреблению оперативной памяти (~10 ГБ сразу после запуска) в конфигурациях с установленными языковыми пакетами. Сбой проявляется только выпуске Firefox 152.0.2 и вызван регрессией, возникшей из-за некорректного исправления в версии 152.0.2 ошибки, приводившей к несоответствию локали в виджетах на новой вкладке после изменения языка в настройках. В версии 152.0.2 регрессия привела к зацикленной пепегенерации кэша локализации при каждом запросе во время формирования содержимого страницы новой вкладки при активном языковом пакете.

Выпуск DXVK 3.0, реализации Direct3D 8/9/10/11 поверх API Vulkan

Доступен выпуск прослойки DXVK 3.0, предоставляющей реализацию DXGI (DirectX Graphics Infrastructure), Direct3D 8, 9, 10 и 11, работающую через трансляцию вызовов в API Vulkan. Для использования DXVK требуется наличие драйверов с поддержкой API Vulkan 1.4, таких как NVIDIA 575.51.02, Mesa AMD RADV 25.0, NVIDIA 25.1 и Intel ANV 25.1. DXVK может применяться для запуска 3D-приложений и игр в Linux при помощи Wine, выступая в качестве более высокопроизводительной альтернативы встроенных в Wine реализаций Direct3D, работающих поверх OpenGL.

Ubuntu 26.10 Snapshot 2 is out (with a ‘breaking change’)

Ubuntu 26.10 Snapshot 2 is available to download, the second of four snapshots planned for the ‘Stonking Stingray’ development cycle ahead of a stable release in October. As with the first snapshot, there’s not a lot “new” stuff to see or test out, so unless you’re a developer or an avid bug hunter there’s little reason to rush off and try it. Canonical’s Utkarsh Gupta, announcing the release on Ubuntu’s developer mailing list, warns of a “breaking change” – don’t panic: it’s not in the image itself, but the URL it’s accessed from.
