  • backdoor in upstream xz/liblzma leading to ssh server compromise

    Jump

  • I don't have a source but I think it is safe to say given the large corporations and government institutions that rely on XZ utils. I'm sure Microsoft, Amazon, redhat ect are in talks with the federal government about this

  • Linux 6.8 released

  • I had this issue and it went away on newer 6.7 releases

  • The drm-free marketing that gog does has been successful, but it is just marketing. While It's true that games sold on gog are drm-free, every game sold on gog that I've looked into is also drm-free on steam. The only real benefit is that the gog installers are more convenient for backups than using a steam back up tool.

  • Linux Mobile Distro postmarketOS Adopts systemd to Better Support GNOME, KDE Plasma

    Jump

  • No, init systems sucked before. It was a bunch of poorly documented and poorly managed shell scripts

  • Enterprise Linux on desktop?

    Jump

  • You can't really use it with redhat. You can swap the kernel and install the user space tools, but then you won't get support from redhat.

  • Nvidia bans using translation layers for CUDA software

  • "profiting off their work" this is the equivalent to banning wine.

  • Online vape seller has ‘no intention of stopping’ shipments to Australia, despite nationwide ban — ‘We have no intention of stopping just because of one twat in Canberra.’

    Jump

  • Ironically a lot of US states have banned reusable vapes but allow disposable ones making the problem worse

  • Online vape seller has ‘no intention of stopping’ shipments to Australia, despite nationwide ban — ‘We have no intention of stopping just because of one twat in Canberra.’

    Jump

  • Yes but unless they ban cigarettes first, banning vapes will likely just have a negative effect

  • YouTube Music team laid off by Google while workers testified to Austin City Council about working conditions

    Jump

  • On the books, that is the case in the US too but it is almost never enforced

  • Contactor staffing companies exist solely to get around employment regulations. Demonic industry

  • KDE Plasma 6.0, and KDE Gear 24.02 released

    Jump

  • Use gamemode

  • Google to pause Gemini AI image generation after refusing to show White people.

    Jump

  • No, the problem is that they filter prompts and inject new parameters into prompts specifically to avoid creating white subjects. It's so bad that, when asked to generate a chessboard, Gemini would only make one with black pieces.

  • Why use immutable Linux ? And which one ?

    Jump

  • Because all changes are transactional so you can easily revert to a previous system state if you break anything

  • Atomic desktops make all of that way easier though

  • Bluesky and Mastodon users are having a fight that could shape the next generation of social media

    Jump

  • The admin politics is exactly what turned me off to mastodon. It's like the worst people are in charge of everything

  • Why Charging Your Gadgets Over 80% Is Such a Bad Idea | iFixit News

    Jump

  • I think that's a Samsung feature

  • Mozilla lays off 60 people, wants to build AI into Firefox

    Jump

  • At this point the only thing that could save Firefox is a rewrite

  • Snap Trap: The Hidden Dangers Within Ubuntu's Package Suggestion System

  • A noob shouldn't have to think about any of this. They would install from gnome software or discover and not know the difference between flatpaks or rpms or debs.
