Untitled Linux Show (Audio)

It's another week of big Linux news, starting with a new Ardour release, that one of our hosts had a tiny part in. The Winamp source release has been a trainwreck, Cloudflare spills the tea on their newest servers, and Valve is shaking things up. Proton may be adding support for Arm64 gaming, Valve engineers are laying down a challenge to Wayland, and a new DXVK is out with a bunch of fixes. And don't forget, we have in-depth coverage of the big "9.9" Linux vulnerability that turned out to be not quite that severe. For tips we have weather on the command line, protontricks for fixing Steam games, and xxd for generating some random hex. You can find the show notes at https://bit.ly/4epi7to and we'll see you next time!
