Weekly Linux and open source news, now expanded to potentially 15 minutes or less, still with no ads and no chatter.
You might've heard that VTE got faster in GNOME 46. But how much faster?
I measured it with a hardware input latency tester! The answer is: *a lot* faster. Read all about it here: https://bxt.rs/blog/just-how-much-faster-are-the-gnome-46-terminals/
For anyone following along, this is also finally the blog post where I explain in some detail how the latency tester works and what is shown on the plots.
Happy to announce that I am now a Trusted Contributor in the @postmarketOS project! It has been around 3.5 years since I found out about it and started contributing (mostly with ports and mainline linux support for various Samsung devices). It really feels great to be part of a joint effort to give devices a second life, and decrease the amount of #eWaste in the world!

I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
