Untitled Linux Show (Audio)

There's been a bit of a shakeup this week, with Torvalds criticizing Docker, Rustls dominating the TLS performance war, and Intel releasing a graphics card while "retiring" their CEO. Then, Flathub and KDE are working on their finances, OpenVPN has modernized its kernel driver, and Steam Machines may be back! Oh, and don't forget OBS 31 or the potential security issue with OpenWRT! For tips, we have eza as an ls replacement, pv for pipe progress viewing, IMSProg for EEPROM hacking, and HandlePowerKey for customizing what your machine does when you hit the power button.

The gang is back, and the big, weird news is that Microsoft is fixing Grub, and it may break your Linux dual boot. Then Torvalds talks about kernel work, AI, Rust, and more. Ubuntu is late, but will be fresher; Libreoffice ships 24.8; and Winter is coming for GIMP 3. For tips we have no more secrets for fun movie-style faux decryption, ProtonUp-Qt for managing Proton versions, brew for installing isolated software stacks, and crtlaltdel for managing what exactly your machine does in response to the classic three-finger salute. You can find the show notes at https://bit.ly/3ADKZiu until next week!

We're all about the Real-Time kernel, and so is Ubuntu, who is now offering it as an option for 22.04. Then there's the new UAlink specification for AMD and Intel accelerators, a trio of distro releases to cover, and the latest and greatest in kernel 6.10. For tips we have bartib for time tracking; a set of commands for auditing logins, system shutdowns, and restarts; and a recap of ping, ending with how to specify ipv4 or ipv6. The notes are available at https://bit.ly/3V4P7yC and enjoy the show!

For tips, we have "look" for doing dictionary lookups, yum and dnf tricks, pv for monitoring or slowing a pipe, and bless for a useful hex editor GUI.
