  1. 🦀 In a new post on the QNX Everywhere Blog, Jonathan Pallant of Ferrous Systems shares the story behind building a GUI application in Rust on QNX and how Rust's lifetime annotations helped us build a safe wrapper around the QNX Screen Graphics Subsystem, preventing use-after-free bugs with no runtime overhead.

  14. Hey fellow #RetroComputing #RetroTech weirdos (affectionate),

    Over a decade ago, Blackberry was just giving their tablet, the Playbook, away to anyone who offered to try developing apps for it. They didn't last long enough to ask for it back. So natch, I got one and played with it a bit.

    Now, it's still fully functional and collecting dust. None of the upstream infra or app store exists anymore, but I was hoping to still screw around with it. It's #QNX, an RTOS, which is neat. Right?

    Anyway, does anyone else mess around with this kind of thing? The apps needed to be signed to work, even in dev mode.

  15. Edit: Since this is getting some boosts, I found some old repos online for setting up dev tools locally for gcc in QNX. I don't think BB10 came to my playbook model. I haven't tried to set anything up yet, but if there's interest I can post more.

    OP:

  16. Security Patches

    InfoSec

    Regardless of which Operating System you run, it is important to keep up with the critical updates to keep your machines as safe as possible

    • Realize that by the time a critical bug has been reported, verified, patched and delivered to your distribution of choice, a significant amount of time has passed...
    • From the first day the bug has been discovered [zero day] to the day you patch your computing machine, you've had a vunurable open machine in that one respect.
    • Keep the amount of time between the availability, of patches & the update of your machines, especially your VMs (Qemu et al) & physical servers as short as possible
    • Make sure to always use manual updates on your server VM's!
    • I shall not explain why, start reading on Wikipedia and furthe, the explanation is too long for this short post

    Notes:

    • every OS can have vunurabilities
    • Security in obscurity does not work!
    • you are not secure because you run obsolete AmigaOS QNX or cool and niche *BSD as an OS
    • buffer overflows hide everywhere
    • I reguraly find them!

  20. QNX — второе дыхание в ретрогейминге Super Nintendo

    Здравствуйте, уважаемые читатели! Сегодня мы еще раз вспомним об интереснейшей операционной системе QNX . На сей раз мы используем QNX в качестве игрового стенда для запуска игр от SNES посредством эмуляции. И DOOM , конечно же, будет — DOOM . А вы знали, что он портирован на SNES ? С музыкой, все дела… Приглашаю всех, кому интересна экзотическая операционная система в нецелевом использовании для ретрогейминга, для ознакомления под кат. Папуль, можно поиграть? (c)

  25. That small sliver of time where a QNX desktop was a real thing we did

    Bradford Morgan White has published an excellent retrospective of QNX, the realtime microkernel operating system focused on embedded use cases. The final paragraph made me sad, though.

    QNX is a fascinating operating system. It was extremely well designed from the start, and while it has been rewrit
