In Rust 1.88.0, the Tier 1 target i686-pc-windows-gnu will be demoted to Tier 2. As a Tier 2 Target, builds will continue to be distributed for both the standard library and the compiler. Background Rust has supported Windows for a long time, with two different flavors of Windows targets: MSVC-based and GNU-based. MSVC-based targets (for example the most popular Windows target x86_64-pc-windows-msvc ) use Microsoft’s native linker and libraries, while GNU-based targets (like i686-pc-windows-gn

This group is not part of the GNU Project. This is a lisp implementation. Now it is just an interpreter, but I will add some compilation later. I aim for Common Lisp conformance, but I'm not religious about it. To clone the repository, run this command: git clone https://git.savannah.nongnu.org/git/alisp.git You can find the released tarballs down on this page, but I recommend running from the latest commit, since new features and bugfixes happen often.

Jack Wallen / Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET To this day, I can still remember the first time I logged into Linux and how it looked. It was Caldera Open Linux 1.0 with the Fvwm95 desktop. It was ugly (even at the time) and completely different from any desktop I'd used. At the same time, it was a lot of fun learning something completely different while also discovering what a truly stable operating system could be. It's been a long, long time since those first steps, and every so often, I feel t

You may not know it, but SSDs will lose data after a period of time if they are simply left unplugged, which can be a serious threat to your data if you store backups or precious files on unplugged SSDs. A year-two update on the how long can SSDs store data unpowered video series is another reminder about the importance of regularly refreshing your backups with a bit of juice. The tests consist of storing data on an SSD and then leaving it unplugged for years to see the impact on the stored data

Three weeks ago, NASA revealed that a shipping container protecting a Cygnus spacecraft sustained "damage" while traveling to the launch site in Florida. Built by Northrop Grumman, Cygnus is one of two Western spacecraft currently capable of delivering food, water, experiments, and other supplies to the International Space Station. This particular Cygnus mission, NG-22, had been scheduled for June. As part of its statement in early March, the space agency said it was evaluating the NG-22 Cygnus

Introduction For decades, Linux and BSD have stood as two dominant yet fundamentally different branches of the Unix-like operating system world. While Linux distributions, such as Debian, Ubuntu, and Fedora, have grown to dominate the open-source ecosystem, BSD-based systems like FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and NetBSD have remained the preferred choice for those seeking security, performance, and licensing flexibility. But what if you could combine the best of both worlds—Debian’s vast package ecosystem

February 19, 2025 A free tier allows people to try a SaaS without paying first, but it opens up the service to bad actors. Here's how we balance preventing bad actors while still supporting legitimate users. While many SaaS businesses have started to remove their free tiers due to abuse, we are determined to continuing to provide a free tier for our standard service. We strongly believe that people should be able to try Geocodio before having to pay for it, and we've found that this permissive
