Cuz :twit:<p>This video is about Ubuntu replacing GNU coreutils that have a GPL license with a Rust-based implementation called uutils that has an MIT license. It touts the higher safety of rust and improved performance for a few tools like sort. But it points out that the license makes it such that improvements to the code can be kept proprietary and goes against the general Linux ethos.</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2dbyFddcIs" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=N2dbyFddcI</span><span class="invisible">s</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://twit.social/tags/Ubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ubuntu</span></a> <a href="https://twit.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> <a href="https://twit.social/tags/GNU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GNU</span></a> <a href="https://twit.social/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSource</span></a> <a href="https://twit.social/tags/GPL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GPL</span></a> <a href="https://twit.social/tags/UUtils" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UUtils</span></a> <a href="https://twit.social/tags/Rust" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rust</span></a> <a href="https://twit.social/tags/RustLang" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RustLang</span></a></p>

jbz<p>🦀 Ubuntu 25.10 Looks To Make Use Of Rust Coreutils &amp; Other Rust System Components<br>—<span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://masto.ai/@phoronix" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>phoronix</span></a></span></p><p>「 Cited as the motivation are performance benefits as well as added safety provided by the Rust programming language.

ernmander<p>After doing an extremely simple post about the official <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://ubuntu.social/@ubuntu" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>ubuntu</span></a></span> Plucky Puffin wallpapers (must admit I thought my post title was genius) Well for me I personally picked for my own desktop this wallpaper. As an ex graphic designer this one hits better for me. (The pic ain't that great, two separate monitors, from different manufacturers, pic taken on a mid range phone for a change) <a href="https://squatch.online/tags/ubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ubuntu</span></a> <a href="https://squatch.online/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a></p>
Neff :manjaro:<p><a href="https://mastodon.uno/tags/Ubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ubuntu</span></a> sostituirà le <a href="https://mastodon.uno/tags/GNU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GNU</span></a> coreutils (i programmi di base dei sistemi unix like tipo <a href="https://mastodon.uno/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a>, come cp, ls, cd, mkdir ecc.) con delle nuove versioni riscritte in <a href="https://mastodon.uno/tags/Rust" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rust</span></a>. Probabilmente le motivazioni tecniche alla base di questa scelta sono anche valide, tuttavia le nuove utilities (chiamate <a href="https://mastodon.uno/tags/uutils" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uutils</span></a>) avranno una licenza MIT. Contrariamente alla GPL che obbliga chiunque modifica il software a rilasciare il sorgente modificato la MIT consente a chi vuole di rendere proprietarie le versioni modificate</p>
