AMD CEO Lisa Su back at CES 2026 showed off the Ryzen AI Halo box as a mini PC built around their excellent Strix Halo SoC. The Ryzen AI halo box is to serve as an AI development platform to compete with the likes of NVIDIA's DGX Spark and Dell GB10. This week is the first time I am seeing new Linux driver activity specifically referencing this exciting AMD "Halo Box" system...
Back in 2018, Valve open-sourced their Steam networking sockets library as a basic network transport layer for games. This library is used by games from Counter-Strike to Dota 2 and since its public open-source drop has been picked up elsewhere. Finally after going nearly four years without a new version, GameNetworkingSockets v1.5 dropped today...
In the telecommunications industry, the Radio Access Network (RAN) has moved from a set of fixed functions to a dynamic, software-defined environment that is characterized by cloud-native technologies and methodologies that will be fundamental within the AI-native 6G era. By integrating AI with wireless infrastructure, service providers can improve network efficiency, reduce power consumption, and unlock new revenue streams through innovative edge services.Red Hat has demonstrated another milestone in this evolution, running the recently open sourced version of the NVIDIA Aerial CUDA-Accelerat
Every organization faces the same pressures: do more with less, move faster, and reduce risk while preparing for an AI-powered future. In this environment, automation is no longer optional—it’s the foundation that makes everything else possible.That’s why at Red Hat Summit 2026 (May 11–14 in Atlanta), we’re showcasing automation that is more accessible, intelligent, and impactful.

When Vodafone New Zealand separated from the Vodafone Group to become One New Zealand (One NZ), it faced an opportunity to go beyond a mere rebrand. Like many telecommunications providers, One NZ faced a 2-stack challenge as it managed legacy virtual machines (VMs) alongside modern containerized applications. To support its long-term digital ambitions, it launched the C1 Program, a telco core modernization project that aimed to build a unified, future-ready foundation. The goal was to standardize telco applications on a common platform that could accelerate business outcomes without vendor con
At the start of April was the peculiar announcement of IBM collaborating with Arm on "dual architecture" hardware. The initial fruits of that collaboration at least are Linux kernel patches for enabling ARM64 virtualization acceleration on IBM Z servers. As we approach the end of the month, IBM has now posted a second iteration of those patches for enabling AArch64 software to run on IBM s390 via the Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM)...
