Running Wayland Clients as Non-Root Users on Yocto

news.ycombinator.com Burkhard Stubert 2025-11-16 09:30:27

Many embedded Linux systems use a Wayland compositor like Weston for window management. Qt applications act as Wayland clients. Weston composes the windows of the Qt applications into a single window and displays it on a screen. I still have to find a Yocto layer that does not start Qt applications as root. This violates the cybersecurity principle that every application should only run with the least privileges possible. Let us figure out how to run Qt applications as non-root users and make ou

A Lisp in 99LOC

Lisp in 99 lines of C and how to write one yourself In honor of the contributions made by Church and McCarthy, I wrote this project and the accompanying article to show how anyone can write a tiny Lisp interpreter in a few lines of C or in any "C-like" programming language for that matter. I attempted to preserve the original meaning and flavor of Lisp as much as possible. As a result, the C code in this project is strongly Lisp-like in compact form.

Here’s a look at the unreleased Pixel Tablet Pen’s hidden note-taking trick

Charlie Callow TL;DR An unreleased Pixel Tablet Pen has surfaced, and its tail button can be configured to launch Android’s default notes app in a floating bubble. Getting the button to function requires pairing the stylus via Bluetooth and then enabling a specific developer option and setting a default notes app. The pen currently doesn’t work with Google Keep, and despite the accessory’s appearance, there is still no official news about a Pixel Tablet successor.

TL;DR An X (formerly Twitter) user got their hands on an unreleased Pixel Tablet Pen with the full packaging. It includes a full manual for the device. The stylus would have shipped with a magnetic sleeve that attaches to the back of the tablet. Once upon a time, Google planned to release a stylus for its Android tablet called the Pixel Tablet Pen. However, after the Pixel Tablet 2 was canceled, those plans completely evaporated. Although the Pen never saw the light of day, the unreleased dev

TL;DR Last year, Google canceled its plans for the Pixel Tablet 2, leaving the fate of the company’s Pixel stylus unclear. This summer, that stylus has started popping up at online retailers, now branded as the Pixel Tablet Pen. The pen works fine with the existing Pixel Tablet, but not all its features appear fully implemented.

The Paranoid Style in American Politics (1964)

It had been around a long time before the Radical Right discovered it—and its targets have ranged from “the international bankers” to Masons, Jesuits, and munitions makers. American politics has often been an arena for angry minds. In recent years we have seen angry minds at work mainly among extreme right-wingers, who have now demonstrated in the Goldwater movement how much political leverage can be got out of the animosities and passions of a small minority.

Everything to Remember Before Watching ‘Alien: Earth’

One of the best things about the new show, Alien: Earth, is that you do not need to be an Alien superfan to enjoy it. It’s not dependent on the plots of the seven-plus films in the franchise and is only connected to them in a few tangential ways. For now, at least. Nevertheless, there are a few things worth keeping in mind as we get closer to the August 12 debut. Here they are. The overview The Alien franchise began in 1979 with Ridley Scott’s film, Alien.
