Mastodon (official) mobile apps and mastodon.social, mastodon.online web UI will include easily dismissable donation banner:
news.itsfoss.com/mastodon-in-a
(Some people often get mad if a project asks for donation within its software UI, but I think volunteer devs also deserve to get some payment for their work, it's fair to include a donation notice, if it doesn't annoy users with its placement.)

Brave and AdGuard will block Microsoft Recall:

Bluesky introduces age verification (using payment cards, ID scans, or face scans) for accessing adult content and direct messaging, and content controls for UK users:
alternativeto.net/news/2025/7/
(Yeah we're heading into a dystopian future, where you can't use social media without giving up sensitive information... Or can't send messages because a small portion of predators also use that feature... It shouldn't be the responsibility of governments and social media platforms to protect children, it's the parents' task to protect their children. If governments would really care about protecting children, they would rather push campaigns targeted towards parents to raise awareness of the importance of paying attention what their child is doing online. But nah, this "protect children" thing is only pushed for emotional manipulation, so that the governments can cover their arse, while building surveillance infrastructure.)

It's FOSS News · Firefox Catches Up to Chrome With the Addition of This Feature But Leaves Linux Out (for now)Mozilla did a very good job with this. Now, bring it to Linux as well, please.

Okay, I give up on search for this, and LLMs are going to be just as useless as usual. #VirtualBox used to be pretty straightforward to set up, but I think ARM64 and Apple's UEFI are ganging up on it.

Anyone have a good resource for setting up VirtualBox on an Apple Silicon Mac and booting from a Win11 iso? Damn thing is giving me conniptions.

So I tried a few things, namely switching Virtualbox network modes. But I could not see packets between the VMs.

I imagine when traffic is between VMs #Virtualbox is not putting the packets in the TCP/IP stack where #Wireshark on the host can see them. Only when the traffic crosses to the host or the network beyond does Wireshark (or #tshark) see it.

I don't want to capture traffic on the VMs themselves (having to install Wireshark or something else on Windows 98...).

So I searched around and found the article below in the Virtualbox wiki on network tracing.

You can essentially configure the NIC on each VM to capture all packets and log them to a pcap. So this is what I'll use.

Linux App Release Roundup: May 2025

May saw another sizeable set of Linux app updates, including a big update to system monitor tool Mission Centre and long-awaited version bump to system cleaner BleachBit. We also got new versions of web browsers Mozilla Firefox and Vivaldi; the NordVPN Linux app gained a GUI; and more — but they weren’t the only releases of note. That’s why I do these Linux app release roundups: I like to highlight app updates that didn’t warrant a headline of their own, but are still worth knowing about. As always, if you hear about a notable app update I haven’t covered, tips :sys_more_orange:
