  • AI for Everyone! But Can You Trust It? | Hot Takes & Cold Storage

    This week on Hot Takes and Cold Storage: AI policy wars, a legislative win with an asterisk, and a supply chain security milestone that deserves more attention than it’s getting.

    🔥 HOT TAKES
    California and Colorado carve Linux out of age verification laws, but California’s bill simultaneously expands age-gating to the open web. The EFF isn’t happy.
    Flatpak’s next architecture may require systemd, raising questions about non-systemd distro compatibility
    Flathub bans all AI-generated code, docs, and submissions, effective immediately
    Debian mandates reproducible builds, the first major general-purpose distro to do so, and a real structural response to the XZ backdoor
    🎙️ DEEP DIVE: AI for Everyone, But Can You Trust It? PewDiePie just dropped Odysseus, a fully open source self-hosted AI workspace, and handed the concept of digital self-reliance to a hundred million people. Meanwhile, I’ve been fighting with OpenClaw trying to get it running against a local LLM, and what I found in Vitalik Buterin’s April post has me thinking hard about limits. The open source community can’t agree on AI-generated code policy, and that debate is happening in public right now.

  • Hot takes & Cold Storage, May 22, 2026

    Welcome back to Hot Takes and Cold Storage! After a brief hiatus around Red Hat Summit season, Nate is back with a packed episode.

    Hot Takes:

    Microsoft quietly added Copilot as a co-author to VS Code git commits — even with AI tools disabled. They reversed it after developer backlash, but it’s another reason to consider VSCodium.
    The Dutch government has launched its own self-hosted Forgejo instance as a digital sovereignty move, joining a growing trend of nations taking control of their code infrastructure.
    US states continue filling the federal privacy vacuum. California’s AB 2561 now prohibits apps and OSes from resetting your privacy settings, and Connecticut passed a law requiring data brokers to register with the state.
    MiciMike is producing a drop-in replacement PCB for the Google Home Mini Gen 1 that turns it into a Home Assistant Voice device — completely local, ESP-based, and available to back on Crowd Supply.
    And in a story that writes itself: a CISA contractor stored AWS GovCloud admin credentials, a Firefox password CSV, and deployment documentation in a public GitHub repo. For six months. With secret scanning disabled.

    Cold Storage (Deep Dive): The TanStack Supply Chain Worm

    On May 11, 2026, over 170 packages were compromised across npm and PyPI. 84 malicious versions across 42 TanStack packages were published in a six-minute window, also hitting Mistral AI, UiPath, and OpenSearch. This is the first documented supply chain worm to ship with valid SLSA provenance certificates.
    We break down the pull_request_target exploit pattern, how the attacker poisoned the GitHub Actions cache without touching any credentials, and how the worm propagated itself through every developer it infected — including a vindictive payload that wiped your home directory if you revoked your token. The community response was fast and transparent, and that’s the real win.

  • The Truth About Discord's Age Scans & Mastodon's Big Adoption Fix

    Stop letting tech giants trample your privacy. In this week’s recap, we’re diving into the latest controversy surrounding Discord user privacy and their new “Teen by Default” age verification system which might already be shadow-surveilling you via AI.

    We also have some positive news: Mastodon is finally fixing its onboarding friction to help decentralized social media go mainstream, and ASUS is leading a new charge to unify the gaming on linux experience through the Open Gaming Collective.

    In this episode:

    Discord Privacy Alert: Why their new age-scan policy is a nightmare for internet freedoms.

    Mastodon Adoption Fix: How redesigned profiles and improved onboarding are fighting centralization.
    Linux Gaming Unified: What the “Open Gaming Collective” means for the future of open source gaming.

    Show Notes & Timestamps

    [00:00] Intro: The State of Internet Freedoms

    Nate’s take on the recurring cycle of corporate overreach and the need for open source alternatives.

    [02:15] Discord’s “Teen by Default” & AI Surveillance

    The Gist: All users must verify their age or face restricted “teen” account status starting March 2026.
    Privacy Concerns: Discord is leveraging Persona (a 3rd party with links to Palantir) for facial age estimation scans.
    The “Shadow” AI: Discord claims many users won’t need to scan because they’ve already been analyzing chat patterns to “peg” user ages.
    History Repeating: Reminder of the 2025 data breach involving a 3rd party vendor.

  • Why Washington State Wants to Control Your 3D Printer (And New AI Malware)

    1. 3D Printer DRM: Washington State Proposal

      The Issue: A proposed bill in Washington State would require 3D printer manufacturers to include firmware that identifies and blocks the printing of firearm parts.

      The Penalty: Violations could carry up to five years in prison and a $15,000 fine.

      The Concern: While the “spirit” is to prevent unregistered firearms, Nate points out this is already illegal. The real danger lies in the implementation:

      Permission to Print: Printers may need to "check-in" with an authority to compare jobs against a database.
      The Slippery Slope: This technology could easily be expanded to block copyrighted materials (like LEGO) or cosplay items (like Disney/Star Wars props).

      1. Voidlink: The New Frontier of Linux Malware

        Overview: A new malware toolkit called Voidlink has been discovered, specifically targeting Linux in the cloud and containerized environments.

        AI-Authored: Researchers suspect the code was generated using AI, allowing for more rapid and complex development.

        Advanced Modular Design: Unlike typical “one-off” scripts, Voidlink is a modular framework with over 30 components.

        Capabilities: Includes modules for stealth, privilege escalation, lateral movement, and reconnaissance.
        Dynamic Loading: Attackers can load or unload these modules as needed depending on the target environment.

      3. Open Source Crisis: Google vs. FFmpeg, RHEL 10.1, Valve's New Steam Hardware, UN Brain Tech Warning

        This week on the Open Source News Recap, we dive into a major conflict at the heart of the open-source community: FFmpeg vs. Google over AI-generated bug reports. What responsibility do billion-dollar tech companies have to community-maintained projects like FFmpeg?

        Plus, we cover significant announcements from the enterprise Linux space, including Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 10.1 and 9.7 releases and Canonical’s extended 15-year support for Ubuntu LTS releases. In gaming, Valve just announced new hardware, including the powerful Steam Machine and a new Steam Controller. Finally, we discuss a critical warning from the UN about the need for ethical guardrails around the rapidly advancing Brain Tech Revolution.

        Show Notes

        Open Source Conflict: FFmpeg vs. Google

        Google is using an AI code assistant to analyze and report bugs.
        This is creating extra load on small, community-maintained open-source projects, like FFmpeg.
        FFmpeg is a set of tools that read, convert, and re-encode all video formats, and it is leveraged by many sites, including YouTube, Plex, VLC, browsers like Chrome and Firefox, and Amazon.
        The FFmpeg community thinks it is reasonable that a company worth as much as Google should submit a patch along with their bug reports.
        This issue raises the question of whether AI-analyzed bugs are even of any value, as one valid bug was related to ancient media from an old Lucas Arts game.
        https://thenewstack.io/ffmpeg-to-google-fund-us-or-stop-sending-bugs/
        Enterprise Linux News
        Red Hat announced the release of RHEL 10.1 and 9.7.
        Highlights of the release include: validated hardware drivers for AI accelerators from NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel; improvements around the Command Line Assistant; soft-reboots; and progress on Post-quantum crypto.
        https://www.redhat.com/en/about/press-releases/red-hat-delivers-evolving-foundation-modern-it-latest-version-red-hat-enterprise-linux
        Canonical is now providing up to 15 years of commercial support for Ubuntu LTS releases, which highlights the growing maturity in the enterprise Linux space.
        https://www.phoronix.com/news/Ubuntu-LTS-Canonical-15-Years
        Valve and Linux Gaming Updates
        Valve announced a new Steam Controller and new hardware, including the Steam Machine.
        Support for the new Steam Controller has already been pushed into the SDL3 library.
        This is a strong indicator of Valve’s commitment to upstreaming Linux-related gaming features.
        Valve also announced a new wireless VR Headset with controllers, which is slated for early 2026.
        https://www.phoronix.com/news/Steam-Machines-Frame-2026
        Tech Ethics and Decentralization
        The UN is urging ethical guardrails for the Brain Tech Revolution, warning on the freedom of thought.
        Brain-monitoring neurotechnology is advancing faster than ethical and legal safeguards, raising concerns about mental privacy.
        Devices that let you interact with devices using thoughts are especially concerning, as they could compromise people’s rights to free thought.
        https://news.un.org/en/story/2025/11/1166277
        A report by Bybit’s Lazarus Security Lab revealed that 16 major blockchains have built-in fund-freezing capabilities.
        They used an AI code analysis assistant along with manual review to uncover three types of freeze mechanisms: hardcoded, configuration-based, and on-chain contract freezing.
        The study suggests that transparency around these mechanisms is important and should be a core pillar of blockchain governance.

      4. Iron Sysadmin Open Source News Recap: Mastodon Quote Posts, Linux Gaming Growth, & Azure Outage

        In this week’s Iron Sysadmin Open Source News Recap, Nate breaks down the biggest tech stories, including the controversial arrival of Quote Posts in Mastodon 4.5, now with anti-harassment controls. We analyze why Linux gaming is surging on Steam, recently surpassing MacOS. Plus, we cover Nvidia’s move into open-source drivers with the new Nova project for their next-gen accelerators , and dive into the details of Microsoft Azure’s 8-hour outage. Tune in for your weekly dose of open source news and community updates!

        🎙️ Show Notes: Week of November 7th

        This week, Nate dives into some big updates for open source social networking, major growth in Linux gaming, an interesting move from Nvidia, and another cloud provider facing downtime.
        Social Media & Open Source News
        Mastodon 4.5 Introduces Quote Posts: The platform has finally rolled out quote-posting, a feature that was previously unavailable.
        Quote posts are considered controversial on platforms like X and Threads due to frequent abuse and being used to single-out users in an effort to harass them.
        Mastodon aims to mitigate this by allowing users to set quoting permissions, which the platform will then respect, giving users more control over their interactions.
        https://www.techbuzz.ai/articles/mastodon-4-5-brings-quote-posts-with-anti-harassment-controls
        Nvidia’s Open Source Initiative: Nvidia engineers are developing a new open-source driver named Nova.
        The driver is currently being prepared to support select GPU’s, namely the Hopper and Blackwell generations.
        These do not appear to be gaming adapters, but likely for compute.

        Gaming & Operating Systems
        Linux Gaming Market Share Rises: Linux gaming now accounts for 3% of all Steam users.
        This figure is greater than the 2.11% of users on MacOS.
        Approximately one-third of the Linux users are on SteamOS, with the remaining two-thirds on other Linux distributions.
        Windows still holds a dominant share at over 94% of Steam users, with 3% of that being Windows 11.

        Cloud & Tech Outages
        Microsoft Azure Suffers Outage: Azure had its own outage last week.
        The outage began at 3:45 PM UTC on Wednesday and lasted until 12:05 AM Thursday.
        The core issue affected the “Azure Front Door” (AFD) service, which is the CDN for Azure.
        This impacted a number of downstream services.
        The problem sounds like a config mishap: an “inadvertent tennant config”.

        Linux Gaming Milestone

        New data shows that nearly 90% of Windows games now run on Linux. The viability of gaming on Linux is higher than ever, largely due to the Proton/WINE translation layer. Nate discusses the nuances of game compatibility, including issues with kernel-level anti-cheat.

        Ubuntu’s Display Server Shift

        Ubuntu 25.10 ships without X11, fully embracing Wayland as the default display server]. This transition has caused some controversy online, though many other distributions like Fedora and Red Hat have already made the move. The host notes that X11 was no longer being well-maintained.

        On to the news:

        We can’t not talk about AWS.
        https://www.techpolicy.press/amazon-cloud-outage-reveals-democratic-deficit-in-relying-on-big-tech/
        Technical details:
        https://www.forbes.com/sites/kateoflahertyuk/2025/10/23/aws-outage-new-analysis-explains-what-went-wrong-and-why/
        An issue with Dynamo-db caused a cascading failure
        Between 11:48 p.m. on Oct. 19 and 2:40 a.m. on October 20, Amazon DynamoDB experienced “increased API error rates” in its Virginia US-East-1 Region, the main region for deploying applications.
        Caused by a “latent defect” in the services DNS management.
        This lead to queries for the services endpoint to return empty. And because of how DNS works, even once the issue is fixed, you’ll still have this long tail of failures as dns caches clear and refresh.
        This apparently lead to high traffic on network load balancers to result in health check failures on the service. And at the same time, new ec2 instances started failing to start up. Even once they were started, they suffered from network connectivity issues.
        Which then lead to MORE network load balancer issues.

        On to linux gaming!

        https://www.windowscentral.com/gaming/linux-supercharges-the-rog-xbox-ally-x-higher-fps-smoother-performance-and-a-big-win-for-handheld-gaming
        ASUS ROG Xbox Ally X, and xbox handheld that launched recently, apparently well received
        Buuut once people got their hands on it, they started to feel less great about its software stack. Windows was left a little bloated, and the UI left some room for improvement
        That is until someone threw bazzite on it, and now its amazing. Im paraphrasing bt have a look at the article, it shows significant FPS improvements on the games that were tested, and basically plays like a steamdeck.

        And the Fediverse gets a fuzzer

        https://asml.cyber.harvard.edu/category/projects/
        Harvard apparently has an applied social media lab, because of course they do.
        The ASML has announced an activitypub fuzzer. A tool meant to help Activitypub developers test their api compatibility.
        The tool mimics common Fediverse activity and helps developers test their applications without putting them into the wild and watching them catch fire.

        The GIMP has decided to take over ownership if its own snap

        https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/10/official-gimp-snap-package-announced
        Previously the snap was maintained by snapcraft, a community associated with Canonical thats been propping up the snap repos
        The GIMP project has decided to start managing this build on their own.
        This doesn;t change how you get gimp on ubuntu however, just who owns the package.
        If anything this should give users more confidence in the quality of the snap!

        The Fedora Foundation has changed their stance on AI generated Code

        https://www.theregister.com/2025/10/23/fedora_agrees_policy_allowing_ai_assisted_code_contribs/
        There are strict guidelines around using AI strictly as a code assistant, not as a primary author.
        This follows a decision last year that prevented any use of AI code.
