This morning’s feed has a split personality that I’m enjoying. On one side the open-tooling track is humming along — Calibre ships a real Content server overhaul, NVIDIA steadies an older GPU generation for Linux, and on iOS people are quietly building side doors around Apple’s browser and sideload rules. On the other side, both MIT Tech Review pieces sit firmly in the "hard problems" camp: a US/Anthropic export-controls story that looks less like a strategy than a series of stress pulses, and a sober reminder that publishing a real-world geoengineering "playbook" could normalize unilateral deployment. The throughline for me is that infrastructure — software, drivers, sideload tooling, governance — is being stitched together one stubborn thread at a time.

• オープンソースの電子書籍管理ソフト「Calibre 9.10」リリース ─ Content serverに新インターフェースを追加 (thinkit.co.jp) (In Japanese Language)
  Calibre 9.10 was released on June 25 (local time). The open-source ebook management software, written in Python and available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, gets a refreshed Content server interface with sidebar support, HTTPS-friendly PWA support, and CSS Level 4 selector support; a vulnerability in book metadata handling was also fixed.
• 「NVIDIA Linux Driver580.173.02」リリース ─ Maxwell、Pascal、Volta世代向け系列を更新 (thinkit.co.jp) (In Japanese Language)
  NVIDIA released Linux x64 Display Driver 580.173.02 on June 25 (local time) as a maintenance update to the 580 series aimed at Maxwell, Pascal, and Volta generation GPUs. The release fixes bugs around DKMS kernel-module builds, Vulkan synchronization, and several X11 / OpenGL issues.
• 「Fable禁止」は誰のため？ 「脅威」連発で迷走する米政府対応 (MITテクノロジーレビュー) (In Japanese Language)
  This spring the White House framed Anthropic’s AI as a threat, and this summer it slapped export controls on the improved model dubbed "Fable." The piece argues the response looks ad hoc rather than safety-driven: blocking access mainly ties the hands of the researchers who could defend against the threat and risks driving demand toward cheaper Chinese models.
• 実用研究は太陽地球工学を近づけるか、遠ざけるか (MITテクノロジーレビュー) (In Japanese Language)
  Stratospheric aerosol geoengineering — reflecting sunlight to cool the planet — still faces big technical and governance challenges. Publish a usable "playbook" and individual states or actors could go it alone and normalize deployment; the counter-argument is that practical research itself surfaces the real-world difficulties and makes deployment less likely.
• iPhoneでFirefox用拡張機能を使えるウェブブラウザ「Reynard」のインストール手順、WebKitではなくGeckoを搭載した野良アプリ (GIGAZINE) (In Japanese Language)
  Reynard is an iOS browser built on Gecko — the same engine Firefox uses — so it can install and run Firefox browser extensions, something the App Store’s WebKit-only browsers can’t. It isn’t distributed via the App Store, so the article walks through the unusual install process end to end.
• 脱獄不要＆Mac不要でiPhoneに野良アプリをインストールできる「SideStore」の導入手順まとめ (GIGAZINE) (In Japanese Language)
  SideStore lets you sideload apps onto an iPhone without a Mac or jailbreak, and it circumvents the usual 7-day re-sign limit by working from the iPhone alone. The write-up steps through the (somewhat involved) install procedure in detail.
