Redox
Redox is an operating system written in Rust
Redox is a Unix-like Operating System written in Rust, aiming to bring the innovations of Rust to a modern microkernel and full set of applications. Redox is a general purpose operating system written in pure Rust. Our aim is to provide a fully functioning Unix-like microkernel, that is both secure and free. We have modest compatibility with POSIX, allowing Redox to run many programs without porting. We take inspiration from Plan9, Minix, Linux, and BSD. Redox aims to synthesize years of research and hard won experience into a system that feels modern and familiar. Redox is an attempt to make a complete, fully-functioning, general-purpose operating system with a focus on safety, freedom, reliability, correctness, and pragmatism. We want to be able to use it, without obstructions, as an alternative to Linux on our computers. It should be able to run most Linux programs with only minimal modifications. We're aiming towards a complete, safe Rust ecosystem. -

Ruffle
A Flash Player emulator written in Rust
Ruffle is an open-source emulator for Adobe Flash Player, written primarily in Rust, and targeted at both desktop applications and web browsers via WebAssembly. Its goal is to enable legacy Flash content—animations, games, interactive media—to continue running safely and reliably after official Flash support was discontinued. On the web side, Ruffle is embedded into pages or installed as a browser extension; in the desktop version, it can open .swf files directly or embed them in applications. Because it’s built with memory safety in mind, Ruffle helps avoid many of the security vulnerabilities that plagued classic Flash (buffer overflows, use-after-free, etc.). It strives to support multiple versions of ActionScript (1, 2 and parts of 3) and a wide swath of the Flash API so as much content as possible works unchanged. -

BerserkArch
A bleeding-edge, security-centric Arch-based Linux distribution.
BerserkArch is a security-focused, performance-tuned Linux operating system (OS) based on Arch Linux, designed for developers, hackers, and technical users. A bleeding-edge, security-centric Arch-based Linux distribution crafted for hackers, developers, and nerds alike. Following the Arch Linux philosophy, it is designed to be highly customizable, allowing users to build their environment with only the components they need, rather than having a lot of pre-installed software like some other security distributions (e.g., Kali Linux). As an Arch-based distribution, it benefits from the rolling release model, providing users with the latest software versions and kernel updates. BerserkArch is a dist "designed to make you powerful" for specific use cases like reverse-engineering binaries and automating exploits, rather than being an easy-to-use distribution for general beginners. -

display-switch
Turn a $30 USB switch into a full-featured multi-monitor KVM switch
This utility watches for USB device connect/disconnect events and switches monitor inputs via DDC/CI. This turns a simple USB switch into a full-fledged KVM solution: press one button on your USB switch and all your monitors connect to a different input. It is supposed to be installed on all computers that could be connected to these monitors since the app only switches monitors "one way" and relies on itself running on the other computers to switch it "the other way" as needed. -

OpenObserve
Elasticsearch/Splunk/Datadog alternative for (logs, metrics, traces)
OpenObserve is a cloud-native observability platform built specifically for logs, metrics, traces, and analytics designed to work at a petabyte scale. It is very simple and easy to operate as opposed to Elasticsearch which requires a couple of dozen knobs to understand and tune which you can get up and running in under 2 minutes. It is a drop-in replacement for Elasticsearch if you are just ingesting data using APIs and searching using Kibana (Kibana is not supported nor required with OpenObserve. OpenObserve provides its own UI which does not require separate installation unlike Kibana). You can reduce your log storage costs by ~140x compared to Elasticsearch by using OpenObserve. Below are the results when we pushed logs from our production Kubernetes cluster to Elasticsearch and OpenObserve using fluent bit. OpenObserve stored data in Amazon s3 and Elasticsearch stored data on Amazon EBS volumes.
