openEuler 24.03-LTS-SP2 is the platform of choice for large enterprises in China

The future of digital infrastructure is increasingly based on operating systems that can meet the stability, innovation and compatibility requirements of different industries. openEuler, China's first community open source operating system, is not just a technology product, but the result of a long-term strategic effort to create an independent and diverse technology ecosystem. The latest major milestone in this development is openEuler 24.03 LTS SP2.

The openEuler story is unique in many ways. Initially launched as an open version of Huawei's enterprise distribution EulerOS, it became a community development project in late 2019.In 2021, Huawei handed over control of the project to the Chinese OpenAtom Foundation, creating a new model of software collaboration: industry players, including major companies such as Tencent and Alibaba, work on the operating system on a common platform. This decentralised but structured governance allows technological development and stability to be aligned.

One of the key features of openEuler is its broad architectural support. The system can run on x86, ARM64, RISC-V, LoongArch and SW64 platforms, offering unique flexibility, especially for those looking for a single software solution for different hardware environments. In addition, openEuler offers optimised versions for different application areas - servers, cloud, edge networks and embedded systems - which is a particularly important aspect in environments where digitisation is driving rapidly changing demands.

The current stable major release, 24.03 LTS, is based on the Linux 6.6 kernel version and brings a number of technological innovations: a folio-based approach to improve memory management efficiency, modern scheduling algorithms, and file system optimizations. The distribution has taken a particularly interesting direction by addressing AI integration at a native level - for example, through EulerCopilot, which provides an AI-based question-and-answer system for developers and administrators. This functionality is not only a technical innovation, but also an indication that openEuler is increasingly becoming a platform that can provide the backbone for complex digital services beyond the traditional role of operating systems.

The second service pack (SP2) for 24.03 LTS is part of the regular maintenance cycle and is designed to provide a reliable way to update the base system with support for new hardware, security patches and stability fine-tuning. The concept of service packs in this case is not a mere upgrade, but an essential tool to ensure stable and reliable systems in the long term.

It is important to note that, although openEuler was specifically created as a tool for China's technological sovereignty, international contributors to the project are also playing an increasing role. The code and infrastructure are open, the documentation is available in English, and the system can be tested on several cloud providers in Western Europe and North America. This international availability may be of particular interest to those looking for an alternative to traditional commercial Linux distributions, but who do not want to compromise on functionality or security.

Az openEuler 24.03 LTS SP2 tehát nem csupán egy újabb technikai iteráció, hanem annak a hosszú távú elképzelésnek a következő lépése, amely egy mindenre kiterjedő, biztonságos és rugalmas operációs rendszer létrehozását célozza. A projekt fejlődése alapján egyértelműen látható, hogy nem rövid távú kísérletről van szó, hanem egy olyan kezdeményezésről, amely egyre szilárdabb lábakon áll, és amely valódi alternatívát kínál az informatikai infrastruktúra tervezése és üzemeltetése során.

The Chinese-American Robotics War
The global robotics industry is at an unprecedented turning point as China and the United States engage in increasingly intense competition for dominance in the field of humanoid robotics. This is more than just a technological rivalry—it represents a fundamental struggle for leadership in the next phase of industrial automation. As Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, puts it, “We are number one, but Chinese companies occupy second and tenth place,” accurately reflecting deep concerns about Chinese manufacturing capabilities and their strategic position in the robotics sector.
Where is Artificial Intelligence Really Today?
The development of artificial intelligence has produced spectacular and often impressive results in recent years. Systems like ChatGPT can generate natural-sounding language, solve problems, and in many tasks, even surpass human performance. However, a growing number of prominent researchers and technology leaders — including John Carmack and François Chollet — caution that these achievements don’t necessarily indicate that artificial general intelligence (AGI) is just around the corner. Behind the impressive performances, new types of challenges and limitations are emerging that go far beyond raw capability.
Rhino Linux Releases New Version: 2025.3
In the world of Linux distributions, two main approaches dominate: on one side, stable systems that are updated infrequently but offer predictability and security; on the other, rolling-release distributions that provide the latest software at the cost of occasional instability. Rhino Linux aims to bridge this divide by combining the up-to-dateness of rolling releases with the stability offered by Ubuntu as its base.
SEAL: The Harbinger of Self-Taught Artificial Intelligence
For years, the dominant belief was that human instruction—through data, labels, fine-tuning, and carefully designed interventions—was the key to advancing artificial intelligence. Today, however, a new paradigm is taking shape. In a recent breakthrough, researchers at MIT introduced SEAL (Self-Adapting Language Models), a system that allows language models to teach themselves. This is not only a technological milestone—it also raises a fundamental question: what role will humans play in the training of intelligent systems in the future?
All it takes is a photo and a voice recording – Alibaba's new artificial intelligence creates a full-body avatar from them
A single voice recording and a photo are enough to create lifelike, full-body virtual characters with facial expressions and emotions – without a studio, actor, or green screen. Alibaba's latest development, an open-source artificial intelligence model called OmniAvatar, promises to do just that. Although the technology is still evolving, it is already worth paying attention to what it enables – and what new questions it raises.
ALT Linux 11.0 Education is the foundation of Russian educational institutions
ALT Linux is a Russian-based Linux distribution built on the RPM package manager, based on the Sisyphus repository. It initially grew out of Russian localization efforts, collaborating with international distributions such as Mandrake and SUSE Linux, with a particular focus on supporting the Cyrillic alphabet.
