This Week In Linux (mp3)

video: https://youtu.be/V4r7fCFLP6A This week in Linux, GNOME 51 is here with a faster, more polished desktop and a long list of upgrades across the environment. Asahi Linux pulled off another major Apple Silicon milestone with M3 Macs. Valve is building one of the wildest compatibility stacks we've seen yet for the Steam Frame. And Open Source projects are now setting traps for AI coding agents that can make lazy submissions snitch on themselves. Plus, Jellyfin 12 is a huge upgrade for self-hosted media.

Plus, Audacity gets one of its biggest updates in years, OpenShot levels up in a big way, and Linux From Scratch has a brand new release for everyone who thinks installing Linux should require just a little more suffering.

video: https://youtu.be/tksoVnYTz1c This week in Linux, we learned that NVIDIA might be buying Hugging Face and this AI community platform reportedly rejected extra investment from NVIDIA because they didn't want one company having too much influence. Now NVIDIA may be buying the entire company. Someone dumped more than 125 bug reports into QEMU in under ten minutes, leading one maintainer to call it an effective denial-of-service attack. Debian finished their debate on what to do with AI contributions and their decision was surprising. LibreOffice has a new release where they made it very clear they aren't interested in adding Ai tools to summarize the document you just wrote. Plus Flatpak is getting more than half a million euros to improve Linux app security and sandboxing, so that's awesome. And all of this is happening while Linux celebrates 35 years of the kernel.
