  1. howdy

    🛡️ Windows Hello™ style facial authentication for Linux

    Project mention: Introducing Biopass: Modern Multi-Modal Biometric Login for Linux | dev.to | 2026-02-27

    Historically, Linux has lacked a modern, unified equivalent. While the community has incredible tools like Howdy, it focuses exclusively on facial recognition, relies on CLI for management, and hasn't seen significant updates recently.

  5. mkchromecast

  6. mkosi

    đź’˝ Build Bespoke OS Images

    Project mention: FediMeteo: A €4 FreeBSD VPS Became a Global Weather Service | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-12-30

    For Linux this will vary between distributions and configurations. For example, based on some testing I did today using mkosi [1] (for reasons unrelated to this discussion), a bare-bones Fedora 43 installation uses about 130 MiB of RAM, while a Debian installation uses a little more than 100 MiB.

    IIRC last time I tried a bare-bones FreeBSD installation it used about the same amount of memory, maybe a little more based on how ZFS is set up.
