          • Untitled Linux Show 228: Smooth Before, Smooth After

            Flatpak has hit a bump in the road, but Sebastian Wick may have it back on course. KDE is making progress on the upcoming 6.6, and Fedora 43 is out. The Turris Omnia NG is a compelling Linux router, RDSEED has a bit of a problem on AMD Zen 5, and Mozilla drops the ball with AI translations. There's some weird security stories to cover in Open Office and the Linux kernel, and Gnome has dropped its X11 back-end. For tips we have declare for Bash variable and function handling, btrfs-check for btrfs filesystem cleanup, and the Amplitude Soundboard for live sound effects.

          • This Week in Space 185: Gutting Goddard

            As you may or may not know, NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center is in the administration's crosshairs. With cuts to their budget and staffing beginning under Elon Musk's DOGE, it has taken a different form with the government shutdown. Employees furloughed or retired from critical programs, laboratories shuttered, and entire facilities gutted--all without the approval of Congress. By the time the shutdown is over, NASA's primary research center--and the one most responsible for what many are now calling "the C-word," climate science--will be a shell of its former self. Josh Dinner, who recently completed a months-long investigative report, joins us. Also: Jared Isaacman is back in the running as NASA chief, the 25th anniversary of the ISS, and China now working with the US on orbital dangers.
