Hi all,

I’m writing to give an early heads-up about an upcoming change to the ports
tree that will affect a large number of port Makefiles.

As part of improving license tracking and aligning with SPDX standards,
we will be updating all LICENSE fields to use SPDX-compliant identifiers.
For example:

- BSD2CLAUSE → BSD-2-Clause
- GPLv2+ → GPL-2.0-or-later
- GPLv3 → GPL-3.0-only
- ZLIB → Zlib

awww I guess that means hundreds of lines of Makefiles in the ports tree will lose my attribution 🥲

holy shit that was over 10 years ago???

I found a vulnerability in git. CVE-2025-48384: Breaking git with a carriage return and cloning RCE - dgl.cx/2025/07/git-clone-submo…

As the post explains this is one of my favourite classes of vulnerability, using characters that are old and sometimes forgotten.

I enjoyed this #TEDTalk by Hannah Gadsby. I've enjoyed her Netflix series #Nanette & #Douglas so wasn't too surprised that her "Three ideas. Three contradictions. Or not." was something I would enjoy. I do love her exploration with her own #neurodiversity and how she is able to connect. Thanks again for connecting us with your stories.

This Airline Was Just Named the No. 1 Domestic Airline in the U.S. for 2025—and Travelers Call It 'Almost Like Flying Private'
"...As one T+L reader explained, flying JSX is “almost like flying private. Friendly staff, easy check-in, help with boarding, luggage.” When you fly with JSX, you limit your time at the airport, checking in just 20 minutes before takeoff on most flights and walking through “frictionless” TSA-approved security. On board, each guest is treated to business-class amenities and free Starlink Wi-Fi...."

In a recent CNN report, skepticism surrounds the Trump Organization’s claim that its new “T1” smartphone is “Made in the USA.”

Experts, including Todd Weaver, CEO of Purism, challenged the claim, citing striking similarities between the T1 and a low-cost Chinese phone, the Revvl 7 Pro 5G, made by Wingtech, a Chinese manufacturer.

Weaver emphasized the logistical and technical difficulty of building a phone in the U.S.

$ pkg prime-list

Soming up NFB national convention in a nutshell! This was an absolute disaster, and for thos who didn't go, your money is saved. See my last post, with a tiktok link, telling the story from a sighted person's perspective. Now. I know, i will get hate for this, however, in my opinion, NFB puts this on themselves, for not vetting where they hold there conventions! Wish i had the money to attend ACB instead! As it seems that everyone's coverage is possitive, compared to this mess i just experienced today!

Tes drapeaux sont noirs dans le **vent**
Ils sont noirs de notre peine
Ils sont rouges de notre sang

Dans la neige et dans le **vent**
A travers toute l'Ukraine

Nejde o velkou novinku, ale o menší opravnou aktualizaci, která řeší drobné chyby.
