Microsoft quietly makes controversial Recall feature uninstallable

After spending a few months in complete radio silence about Recall, Microsoft finally emerged with a statement that its controversial feature will make a comeback later this year, in October, to be more precise. In preparation for the release, Microsoft quietly made a big change in Windows 11 version 24H2 on Copilot+ PCs, namely, adding the ability to uninstall Recall (via Deskmodder). ↫ Taras Buria Recall, a half-baked security nightmare of a feature trying to catch the AI hype train, uninstallable using a Windows 95-era Windows Features dialog, is a better summary of the current state of Windows than anything anyone could put into words. Nobody cares about Windows, least of all Microsoft, and I have the sneaking suspicion that could Microsoft get away with it, they would put the source code to large parts of the Windows platform on GitHub to “outsource” its development to the community and fire even more employees. Is anyone excited about new Windows releases? Is anyone looking forward to new features? Because it feels like every new releases, every new feature, just causes more dread, more exasperation, more what is it this time? than genuine excitement and happiness. Everything coming out of Microsoft when it comes to Windows ever since the release of Windows 11 is just… Sadness.

Drupal Starshot blog: Drupal Starshot Initiative update for the end of August 2024

Dries Buytaert announced recently that the product name for the result of the Drupal Starshot Initiative will be Drupal CMS. Exciting! Activities on features for Drupal CMS are divided into tracks – a set of deliverables focused to provide valuable solutions for different parts of the product strategy.

Let’s see what’s cooking in the Drupal CMS kitchen as since the announcement of the track leads, quite some work has been done. We are happy to share a brief overview to highlight the progress made!

The Events Track has been busy with transferring the Events recipe to the Drupal CMS and now we’ve got the beginnings of an event system. As with all the Drupal CMS components, the ultimate plan is for each one to be available as its own project, but at the same time all be developed within the same repo. 

The Data Privacy / Compliance Track is busy developing a survey for the international audience. We are looking forward to sharing it with the community very soon.

The Trial Experience Track in coordination with the Drupal Association has devised a solution to leverage GitLab Pages. After checking in with the rest of the Drupal CMS team, it was decided the trial codebase would be added to the monolithic repository. You can find more details at the dedicated blog post by Matt Glaman.

The Starshot Demo Design System initiative is supporting the Experience Builder demo next month by providing Drupal-branded components within a design system theme. The team has made excellent progress and needs more help in the next two weeks to test components within Experience Builder. Learn how to get involved!

The SEO Track managed to add Basic SEO recipe to Drupal CMS. This recipe will be applied by default, is idempotent (can be applied multiple times), and sets the simple best practices configuration we feel every site needs. The team is continuing to work to define an advanced SEO recipe that we will propose to be optional that has more tools for optimizing for search engines.

The Advanced Search Track has drafted a proposal for the track. It is being reviewed by the leadership team and the idea is to provide a recipe for at least two different approaches and collect community feedback. We expect this to happen in September so stay tuned!

The Media Management Track is undertaking discovery to gather common practices and new insights that will lead to a proposal for the features and recipes for media in early versions of Drupal CMS. The track will also propose how improvements and innovations could look for media beyond the launch of Drupal CMS. Tony Barker has created a survey as part of the discovery and welcomes the community to provide their thoughts and feelings on media in Drupal using this form.

We are observing the progress each track team is making with excitement and will keep you up to date on upcoming developments!

libtool @ Savannah: libtool-2.5.2 released [beta]

Libtoolers!

The Libtool Team is pleased to announce the release of libtool 2.5.2, a beta release.

This beta release was not planned, but additional testing of a recent bugfix

was requested for distros to have the chance to test it with mass-rebuilds.

The details of this bugfix can be found here:

    https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=71489

The commit for this bugfix can be found here:

    https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/libtool.git/commit/?id=0e1b33332429cd578367bd0ad420c065d5caf0ac

I hope to release the stable in a couple of weeks if testing goes well!

GNU Libtool hides the complexity of using shared libraries behind a

consistent, portable interface. GNU Libtool ships with GNU libltdl, which

hides the complexity of loading dynamic runtime libraries (modules)

behind a consistent, portable interface.

There have been 9 commits by 4 people in the 35 days since 2.5.1.

See the NEWS below for a brief summary.

Thanks to everyone who has contributed!

The following people contributed changes to this release:

  Bruno Haible (1)

  Ileana Dumitrescu (6)

  Sergey Poznyakoff (1)

  Tobias Stoeckmann (1)

==================================================================

Here is the GNU libtool home page:

    https://gnu.org/s/libtool/

For a summary of changes and contributors, see:

  https://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=libtool.git;a=shortlog;h=v2.5.2

or run this command from a git-cloned libtool directory:

  git shortlog v2.5.1..v2.5.2

Here are the compressed sources:

  https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-2.5.2.tar.gz   (1.9MB)

  https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-2.5.2.tar.xz   (1.0MB)

Here are the GPG detached signatures:

  https://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/libtool/libtool-2.5.2.tar.xz.sig

Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth:

Here are the SHA1 and SHA256 checksums:

  e3384dc0099855942f76ef8a97be94edab6f56de  libtool-2.5.2.tar.gz

  KSdftFsjbW/3IKQz+c1fYeovUsw6ouX4m6V3Jr2lR5M=  libtool-2.5.2.tar.gz

  71b7333e80b76510f5dbd14db54d311d577bb716  libtool-2.5.2.tar.xz

  e2C09MNk6HhRMNNKmP8Hv6mmFywgxdtwirScaRPkgmM=  libtool-2.5.2.tar.xz

Verify the base64 SHA256 checksum with cksum -a sha256 –check

from coreutils-9.2 or OpenBSD’s cksum since 2007.

Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the

.sig suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file

and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

  gpg –verify libtool-2.5.2.tar.gz.sig

The signature should match the fingerprint of the following key:

  pub   rsa4096 2021-09-23 [SC]

        FA26 CA78 4BE1 8892 7F22  B99F 6570 EA01 146F 7354

  uid   Ileana Dumitrescu <ileanadumi95@protonmail.com>

  uid   Ileana Dumitrescu <ileanadumitrescu95@gmail.com>

If that command fails because you don’t have the required public key,

or that public key has expired, try the following commands to retrieve

or refresh it, and then rerun the ‘gpg –verify’ command.

  gpg –locate-external-key ileanadumi95@protonmail.com

  gpg –recv-keys 6570EA01146F7354

  wget -q -O- ‘https://savannah.gnu.org/project/release-gpgkeys.php?group=libtool&download=1‘ | gpg –import –

As a last resort to find the key, you can try the official GNU

keyring:

  wget -q https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-keyring.gpg

  gpg –keyring gnu-keyring.gpg –verify libtool-2.5.2.tar.gz.sig

This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:

  Autoconf 2.72e

  Automake 1.17

  Gnulib v1.0-563-gd3efdd55f3

This Week in F-Droid

TWIF curated on Thursday, 29 Aug 2024, Week 35

Community News*

As a ghost from the troubled Internet past, a blog post about Geddit, A Reddit client without using their API, appeared last week, where the developer tells the story of how Geddit was born.

Mattermost Beta was updated to 2.19.0, bringing a steady stream of improvements for this FOSS chat solution that’s full of features: 1:1 chat, channels, threads, calls, archive search, dev tools integration, markdown, playbooks for processes, webhooks, plugins and more. And here’s the kicker: you can self-host the server!. Yes, it’s not on someone else’s computer (aka the cloud), no, it’s on yours, it’s On-Prem if you want it or in your own cloud. Even more, want the new fancy AI stuff? They’ve got a plugin for that too, so you can connect it to the big corporate controlled AI, or… to your own local AI (see a pattern there?). 😎 Is this the Slack or Teams killer that you’ve been looking for?

Readrops was updated to 2.0-beta01, and at least one user reported some issues on their device. We’ve changed the F-Droid metadata to not pickup beta versions in the future, until the developer deems releases stable. While we could not reproduce the issue on other device, you can read the upstream issue and see if you need to postpone the update.

Removed Apps

12 apps were removed
  • Clipboard Cleaner, An android app for showing and cleaning clipboard and Tasky, A highly intuitive and easy-to-use todo list app were archived at the request of the developer.
