At the end of last year when checking out the latest Linux experience on the Snapdragon X Elite it was a disappointing affair. The performance had regressed and overall a more headache-inducing experience than just running a modern AMD Ryzen AI or Intel Core Ultra laptop on Linux. Given the recent release of Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, I've been re-testing the Acer Swift 14 AI laptop with Snapdragon X Elite SoC to see how its performing under Linux now and against the AMD/Intel competition. Unfortunately, it's regressed even further than the last round of testing.

If you are running containerized workloads on Red Hat OpenShift, then you already benefit from industry-leading process isolation. Security context constraints (SCC) restrict what pods can do, SELinux enforces mandatory access controls, cgroups limit resource consumption, and many permissive Linux capabilities are dropped by default. That said, all of these controls still operate on a shared host kernel. For the majority of workloads, this is perfectly fine. But when you are running untrusted code especially with privileged containers, you can use OpenShift sandboxed containers for an addition

Looking back a few months ago, it's wild to think about how much things have changed in the world of cybersecurity. Not long ago, running a few outdated application runtimes, pushing Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) patches to "next month's sprint," or carrying end-of-life tech stacks was a normal, acceptable part of doing business. Today? That approach is an immediate open door for automated exploits. The timeline has collapsed, and fixing these vulnerabilities fast is now a matter of immediate survival for enterprise safety.The arrival of highly-capable frontier AI models like Clau

AMD EPYC 9006 Venice Announced & Looks Poised To Be A Grand Slam  Phoronix

While AMD EPYC 9005 "Turin" launched just under two years ago, it has aged remarkably well. It is one of the few CPU generations in my past 22 years of Linux hardware reviews/benchmarking that has still captivated me two years on in finding still typically industry-leading performance across varying workloads, exceptional reliability, and all around a very robust platform. Today though at AMD Advancing AI 2026, Lisa Su formally announced EPYC 9006 "Venice" for taking their server offerings to the next level in the agentic AI era.
