Better Late Than Never: Linux 6.17 To Enable Intel DG1 Graphics By Default

Prior to the DG2/Alchemist discrete GPUs from Intel there was the DG1 graphics processor that served primarily as the initial developer vehicle for facilitating Intel's modern discrete GPU push. DG1 ended up being in the Intel Xe MAX GPU for a small number of laptops and then there's also been a select number of DG1 graphics cards surfacing on eBay in the years …

I just read @rasterweb ’s post about sharing code and it was poignant because I’ve recently stopped sharing my code. I’ve done this because I don’t want to keep feeding LLM’s, especially because one of my projects is intended to make them obsolete, but could be used in its incomplete form to their benefit.

I hate this, but I don’t know what else to do. Maybe I can share my code in physical form (a zine!) so that it’s very unlikely to be scraped into an LLM?

The #Forgejo monthly report was published ✨

Forgejo v12.0 branch was cut on 25 June, for a planned release on 17 July. Forgejo v11.0.2 was released on 18 June, addressing several bugs. Forgejo Runner v6.4.0 introduced offline caching support.

The minimum required Git version has been bumped and the search has been improved.

There is strong enthusiasm for translating Forgejo.

User following with #ActivityPub has progressed and a new #NLnet grant has been accepted.

in reply to Forgejo

@forgejo @lykso But, I wouldn't expect that federation improves the situation with LLM scrapers. Rather the opposite! #ActivityPub is a very open protocol and it will make it rather easier than harder for scraping instances to collect all the code and context.
I think, we need ethical, FOSS LLMs that value the author rights, e.g. crediting each bit where essential (non-trivial) information was taken from and, of course, obeying to licences! Thus, e.g., GPL code must be relicensed by GPL and not to be mixed with non-free (GPL-incompatible) code.

June flew by, but it did drop off a bunch of app updates. Qt Creator, Warp, Audacity, Plank Reloaded + more
