FreeBSD 14.4-BETA2

FreeBSD is a UNIX-like operating system for the i386, amd64, IA-64, arm, MIPS, powerpc, ppc64, PC-98 and UltraSPARC platforms based on U.C. Berkeley's "4.4BSD-Lite" release, with some "4.4BSD-Lite2" enhancements. It is also based indirectly on William Jolitz's port of U.C. Berkeley's "Net/2" to the i386, known as "386BSD", though very little of the 386BSD code remains. FreeBSD is used by companies, Internet Service Providers, researchers, computer professionals, students and home users all over the world in their work, education and recreation. FreeBSD comes with over 20,000 packages (pre-compiled software that is bundled for easy installation), covering a wide range of areas: from server software, databases and web servers, to desktop software, games, web browsers and business software - all free and easy to install.

Concours - Gagnez une Raspberry Pi 5 avec Macé Robotics

À l’occasion de ses 10 ans de Macé Robotics, l’entreprise organise un concours qui se déroulera jusqu'au 26 février 2026.

Macé Robotics est une entreprise individuelle fondée et gérée par moi-même (Nicolas), basée en Bretagne, spécialisée dans la conception et la réparation électronique, aussi bien pour les entreprises que pour les particuliers. Depuis 2016, je fabrique aussi du matériel Open Source également des robots mobiles Open Source destinés à l’enseignement supérieur et à la recherche. Ces robots sont basés sur un système Linux (Raspberry Pi OS), intégrant une carte Raspberry Pi ainsi qu’un microcontrôleur (Pico) dédié à la gestion des moteurs et des capteurs. J’utilise la suite logicielle KiCad sous licence GNU GPL (https://www.kicad.org/) pour la conception des circuits imprimés de ces robots.
Ces robots sont principalement utilisés dans les filières de génie informatique afin de faciliter l’apprentissage du système Linux, des réseaux informatiques et du langage Python à travers des projets concrets et ludiques.

Attribution des lots par tirage au sort :

→ 1er lot : une carte Raspberry Pi 5 (2 Go)

Raspberry Pi5

→ 2e lot : une carte Raspberry Pi Pico 2W

La livraison est offerte en France.

Retour sur la course de robots – Saint-Brock Robot Race d'une dépêche précédente

Suite à la dépêche de décembre 2024 concernant l’organisation de la course de robots mobiles, voici quelques retours sur cet événement : malgré plusieurs annulations d’écoles survenues quelques semaines avant la compétition, la course a tout de même pu avoir lieu.

Environ quinze participants ont pris part à la compétition. Parmi les robots engagés, on comptait un robot DIY piloté par un microcontrôleur ESP32, aux côtés de plusieurs robots basé sur Raspberry Pi, offrant ainsi une belle diversité technologique.

Evaluating The Performance Cost To AMD SEV-SNP On EPYC 9005 VMs

AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization with Secure Nested Paging (SEV-SNP) provides memory encryption and integrity protections that can be especially useful in modern cloud computing. Typically a 2~10% performance overhead is reported when engaging AMD SEV-SNP for these hardware-backed security protections. In this article is an extensive look at the current AMD SEV-SNP performance impact for confidential computing on EPYC 9005 "Turin" servers. The current Ubuntu 24.04 LTS was tested as well as an Ubuntu 26.04 development snapshot in evaluating the latest optimizations and what is on the horizon this year for AMD EPYC Linux server performance.
