If your fridge can be bricked by a firmware update and your AI can outwit its creators, are we trading convenience for chaos? This lively episode tackles the tension between relentless innovation and apparent human oversight in today's weird tech world. Unpack the reality behind AI agents hacking government sites and why industry leaders suddenly want to "pause" progress while shipping new models.
Host: Leo Laporte
Guests: Harper Reed and Iain Thomson

We're back again, a little jet lagged, and ready for fun! Up first is a mind-bending experiment to run VMs through a kernel reboot, followed by Ubuntu's new approach to kernel updates. There's a clever security flaw in inotify, another group working on Apple hardware Linux, and some divisive news about the Raspberry Pi. KDE's AI discussion blew up, Stema has a new streaming codec, and VLC and SPEC have updates worth talking about. For tips, we have the Starling Desktop, zoxide to spice up your cd life, lltag for managing audio metadata, and pstree for a tree view of processes.
The show notes are at https://bit.ly/4rCvsWz and have a groovy week!

This week it's Rod and Tariq working through the most important space headlines. The big story: Starship could launch test flight 14 as early as Monday the 28th. We've seen lots of tests, but this is the first attempt at an orbital flight, the success of which is necessary for the lunar landing system and eventual retirement of the Falcon 9 and Crew Dragon. Also: Vast starts up a lunar division, Isaacman's relief over delays to China's lunar program, concerns over announced discontinuation of SpaceX's Falcon 9 and Crew Dragon, and yet more money for Boeing's troubled Starliner. This and more on this episode of TWiS!
