In the latest Plasma 6.3 Beta, you will find a new executable named kcursorgen in /usr/bin. It can convert an SVG cursor theme to the XCursor format, in any sizes you like. Although this tool is intended for internal use in future Plasma versions,...

Gotta love it since on average it only cost ISP’s around 7 dollars to maintain and expand service. The rest is pure profit.

Intel and AMD engineers have stepped in at the eleventh hour to deal with a code contribution from a Microsoft developer that could have broken Linux 6.13 on some systems.
The change, made in the autumn, was a useful improvement at face value. It was a modification to Linux x86_64 to use large read-only execute (ROX) pages for caching executable pages. The theory was that the alteration would result in increased performance.
However, the code caused problems on some setups and an urgent patch from Intel’s Peter Zijlstra was committed yesterday to disable it. The stable release of the 6.13 kernel was due this coming weekend.
Kdenlive 24.12.1 focuses on stability with fixes for built-in effects, crash issues, sequence resizing, and smoother workflows for Linux users.

Hopefully this was not just a trial balloon for them for making more mischief!

Interesting, I wonder what kind of data is being sent to them. I can’t imagine what kind of abuses would be waiting for the users of these apps.

**Describe the bug**
As of late, I'm starting to get empty search results when … searching for something.

It actually appears the HTML returned from Whoogle contains a fragment of an error message from Google (I presume):
