Then Crossover releases 25, and ReactOS and Free95 battle for Windows reimplementation supremacy. There's the Zed Editor, Audacity updates and news from KDE! For tips we have the Pipewire pw-profiler, ifdata for network interface quick reference, and exch for atomically swapping two files. You can find the show notes at https://bit.ly/4hgT1xo and enjoy!

There are new GPUs that are "available"! Are either NVIDIA or AMD's new offering a good deal for the Linux user? Speaking of AMD, what's up with that AMD Microcode vulnerability? Mono is back, with a dash of Wine, Ubuntu is reverting the O3 optimizations, and we say Goodbye to Skype. For tips we have mesg for controlling console messaging, and virsh for managing and live migrating your virtual machines.

We have Kernel resignations, A GPL court case of some importance, and Mozilla's potentially broken promise. Curl maintainers have thoughts, Some gaming classics have gone open source, COSMIC has another Alpha, and ROCm probably isn't ready for the 9070. For tips we have Chronic out of MoreUtils, pipewire's pw-loopback for audio looping fun, wall for sending terminal messages, and usbip for spooky USB actions at a distance.

Rust in the Kernel is still hot news, with Linus chiming in. Asahi has new leadership, there's a new way to detect hung GPUs, and one of those other OS makers wrestles with encryption backdoor rules. Mozilla announces their new plans, Gentoo publishes a VM image, and Meta is taken to court for torrenting. For tips we have kew for terminal music playing, killport for ending a process based on the port it's listening on, and stable-diffusion-webUI for taking advantage of AMD's ROCm for AI image generation.

This week the Rust controversy continues, and a kernel maintainer stirs up some political drama on the way out the door. NTSYNC and Wayland HDR finally land... and you can't use them yet. KDE Plasma pushes 6.3 out the door, OBS threatens to sue Fedora, and OpenSUSE surprises us all by moving to SELinux. For tips we have etckeeper for versioning your /etc files, pw-config for querying your Pipewire config, and a more detailed guide to using jq to manipulate JSON data.

It's apparently not always safe to apply to Canonical, Nvidia pushes drivers to go with its new hardware, and apparently Linux now runs inside PDFs. Then there's a bit of a flame war to cover over Rust in the kernel, at least one maintainer leaves, and there's the normal churn of application updates to talk about. For tips, we have EasyCron so you don't have to use Google every time you write a cron job, dig for abusing DNS to check if your local Internet connection works, pw-dump to get excrutiating details on your local Pipewire environment, and rocm-smi to make sure nobody's mining bitcoin on your GPU.

We're celebrating the 1.7 release of Gparted, the new hybrid approach to a queueing problem in the Linux kernel, and musing over the news that GTK5 won't have any X11 support. Then there's KDE news, a Thunderbird update, OpenAI's troubled relationship with that "open" element of their name, and the kernel's maintainer worries. For tips we have pw-v4l2 for Pipewire fun, certbot for HTTPS certificate wrangling, and rocminfo for examining your system's ROCM status. You can find the show notes at https://bit.ly/3Emasia and happy Linuxing!

This week we talk browsers, with coverage of the Servo updates and the new Supporters of Chromium group in the Linux Foundation. The Raspberry Pi has a 16Gb model of the Pi 5, and not everyone is happy about it. KDE Plasma 6.3 has a public beta, Flatpack has released version 1.16, and Mint is on the cusp of releasing version 22.1. For tips we have kshift for quick or automated KDE re-theming, php -S for local php site testing, a quick tar howto, and pipewire-pulse for more pipewire and oulse audio fun.
