Создана рабочая группа для изучения готовности платформ VFX и анимации к замене X11 на Wayland Организация ASWF (Academy Software Foundation), которая учреждена Академией кинематографических искусств (США) и организацией Linux Foundation с целью продвижения использования открытого ПО в процессе создания фильмов, объявила о создании рабочей группы "Wayland для творческих работников" (Wayland for Artists). Группа рассматривается как нейтральная площадка для изучения изменений, связанных с продвижением Wayland и замещением X11, и их влияния на индустрию анимации и визуальных эффектов. Целью деятельности рабочей группы называется обеспечение жизнеспособности Linux как платформы для профессионалов в сфере VFX и анимации. 👉@sysadminoff https://www.opennet.ru/opennews/art.shtml?num=65788

The new AI benchmark is intelligence per dollar – Chinese open-source model Z.AI GLM 5.2 is closing the intelligence gap The shift toward intelligence per dollar Enterprise interest is pivoting from pure model performance on leaderboards toward the efficiency of "intelligence per dollar." Chinese open-source models like Z.AI’s GLM 5.2 are demonstrating frontier-level capabilities, particularly in agentic work, at a small fraction of the cost of closed American models. This economic shift allows organizations to prioritize cost-effective solutions for high-volume tasks while reserving expensive frontier models for critical decision-making or orchestration.

📰 New Intel Linux Driver Patches Enable HDR Over DP MST Connections One of the limitations of the Intel Linux driver's high dynamic range (HDR) display support is that it currently doesn't work for any DisplayPort Multi-Stream Transport "DP MST" connections, such as for daisy chaining monitors or multi-monitor docking stations. But the good news is patches are being worked on to address this Intel Linux kernel display driver shortcoming... 🔗 Source: #intel #kernel #linux 👉@sysadminoff https://www.phoronix.com/news/Intel-HDR-Over-DP-MST

Anthropic’s fear-based marketing drives AI power concentration The U.S. government has begun aggressively mandating staggered releases for frontier AI models, a move critics argue represents a "negative turning point" fueled by Anthropic’s fear-based marketing. This shift was cemented when OpenAI was forced to delay GPT-5.6, restricting its most capable "Sol" version to a government-preapproved list of elite partners rather than the general public. This regulatory capture is blamed on Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, whose warnings about cybersecurity flaws and foreign "distillation attacks" successfully pressured the White House into implementing restrictive oversight.
