    465: The RAMpocalypse & He Who Shall Not Be Named! May 11, 2026
    Show notes

    Welcome to Episode 465 of Destination Linux! This week, the dynamic duo of Jill and Zeb handle the shell while our third co-host (the one with the 'R' name) enjoys a work trip to the West coast.

    We kick things off with a major community update: Destination Linux is moving to a monthly Saturday recording schedule to better include our global audience! We detail upcoming Patron Segments and Hangouts, plus a new initiative where our supporters get to vote on which Open Source projects we donate to.

    In the news, we celebrate a massive win for Linux gaming: HDMI 2.1 support is officially landing in the amdgpu driver thanks to a collaboration between AMD and Valve. We discuss what this means for 4K/120Hz gaming on your living room TV and why it was blocked for so long.

    Zeb brings the "Shell" topics, covering Rocket League’s move to Easy Anti-Cheat (and why they chose to keep Linux supported when others didn't), the latest Steam Market Share numbers, and the "RAMpocalypse"—the component shortage currently acting as a speed bump for Valve's hardware ambitions.

    464: AI Security: Tool or Threat? Plus Ubuntu 26.04 "Resolute Raccoon" May 04, 2026
    Show notes

    Destination Linux Episode 464 welcomes special guest host Craig Rowland, founder of Sandfly Security, to join the crew for an exploration of the rapidly evolving intersection of Artificial Intelligence and digital defense.

    Head to www.deviantairwaves.com/sandfly

    Licensing & The FSF: The show kicks off with a look at the community's reaction to OnlyOffice and its recent attempt to add "logo retention" requirements to its AGPLv3 license, a move the Free Software Foundation (FSF) officially declared a forbidden "further restriction". Discussion also touches on the potential for a GPLv4 to combat mandatory ID verification and the importance of decentralized tools like GNU Jami.

    The AI Security Deep Dive: Craig Rowland provides expert insight into how LLMs are revolutionizing code auditing. While some remain skeptical, the episode highlights how these systems relentlessly pursue vulnerabilities at a scale human auditors cannot match, as evidenced by the CopyFail exploit discovery.

    Ubuntu 26.04 LTS "Resolute Raccoon": A comprehensive overview of Canonical's latest Long Term Support release. Key features discussed include GNOME 50, the transition to a Wayland-only environment, Linux Kernel 7.0, and the groundbreaking addition of out-of-the-box NVIDIA CUDA and AMD ROCm support.

    News Roundup: The team call the hot Linux news, including Linux kernel approaching 40 million lines of code, and Local LLMs in Development: A look at how kernel maintainer Greg Kroah-Hartman is utilizing a local LLM ("gkh_clanker_t1000") to assist with bug fixes in the mainline kernel.

    Show notes

    Welcome to episode 463 of Destination Linux! This week, we explore the growing movement to RESIST the limitations of modern streaming services as users rediscover the reliability of physical media and self-hosted solutions.

    We also take a deep dive into the technical side of things with the release of Proton 11 for ARM, discussing what this means for the future of Linux gaming on non-x86 hardware. In the news roundup, we look at the latest modular innovations from Framework, including their new laptop and keyboard designs. Finally, we tackle a heavy dose of privacy news, from the controversial expansion of live facial recognition in the UK to a significant national ID data breach in France.

    462: The AI Job Reaper: 80,000 Layoffs and the Open Source Hedge Apr 20, 2026
    Show notes

    In episode 462, the Destination Linux crew breaks down one of the most significant wins for digital sovereignty in years: the French government’s official mandate to transition 2.5 million civil servants to Linux. We explore "FranceOS," the sovereign cloud stack, and what this means for the global future of the Linux desktop.

    Then, things get real as Ryan shares receipts on the Q1 2026 tech layoffs. With nearly 80,000 jobs cut, almost half attributed to AI automation...is the tech industry in a permanent state of reduction, or is this the ultimate opportunity for open-source talent to rise? We discuss how to "own the pipeline" using local AI tools like Ollama.

    Plus, we cover the massive release of Linux 7.0 featuring Rust adoption and self-healing filesystems, Google’s "Free Upgrade" push for Windows 10 users to ChromeOS Flex, and Linus Torvalds being his classic, unfiltered self regarding kernel patches.

    461: AI Security Frontiers, Steam’s 5% Surge, and the GIMP vs. Adobe Showdown Apr 13, 2026
    Show notes

    In this episode of Destination Linux, we are joined by Red Hat design legend Máirín Duffy (Mo) to tackle some of the biggest shifts in the open-source ecosystem. We start with the massive news that Linux has officially surpassed 5% market share on the Steam Survey, a historic milestone driven by the Steam Deck and the end-of-life for Windows 10.

    Next, Mo provides an expert breakdown of how AI is revolutionizing security research. From Project Glasswing to the Alpha Omega project, we look at how frontier models are being used to find (and fix) vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure like the Linux kernel. We discuss the "personality quirks" of different AI models and why human expertise is still the "apex predator" in the security chain.

    Ryan also shares an update on his "GIMP Challenge," revealing how he’s successfully moved his professional thumbnail workflow to open source. This leads to a deep dive into Adobe’s recent "bad behavior," including $150 million settlements and secret modifications to system hosts files. We ask the tough question: When does commercial software become malware?

    Plus, we cover the latest news, including Linux 7.0-rc7, Firefox’s new free VPN, and Zorin OS’s firm stance against mandatory age verification laws.

    460: Ditching Big Tech: The Open Source Startup Survival Guide Apr 06, 2026
    Show notes

    Is it actually possible to run a professional media company using nothing but Open Source software? This week on Destination Linux, Jill, Ryan, and Zeb provide a massive update on their Open Source Startup journey.

    We break down the technical stack keeping Deviant AirWaves running:

    • Infrastructure: How Nextcloud has become our "absolute savior" for RSS, Markdown notes, and document security.
    • Production: The "superb quality" of VDO.Ninja and OBS Studio for remote recording without the monthly fees of closed-source alternatives.
    • Communication: Moving the needle with Signal, KeePassXC, and our brand-new Mumble server.
    • Web & Editing: Why we stick to WordPress and how Kdenlive and Audacity handle our heavy-lift editing.

    We also take a look at the Orion Web Browser, a WebKit-powered alternative that just hit public Beta on Linux. To wrap things up, we cover Zeb’s Quick-fire News, including a high-severity Snap vulnerability, Linus Torvalds’ thoughts on AI tools in kernel development, and a heartfelt thank you to Martin Wimpress as he seeks new maintainers for Ubuntu MATE.

    459: FCC Bans Foreign Routers! Healthcare Data Leaks & DIY Router Solutions Mar 30, 2026
    Show notes

    Welcome to Destination Linux Episode 459! This week, we are jacking into the digital frontier with a packed mission log. Joining hosts Ryan and Jill is a "High-Tier" summon: Mathieu from Lutris, the man ensuring Linux gaming stays as smooth as a Gundam flight suit.

    We kick things off with a critical look at Healthcare Data Security. With the recent Navia benefit solutions breach affecting millions, we discuss why companies are demanding sensitive data they clearly cannot protect—and why it’s time to push back on providing Social Security numbers.

    Then, we break down the FCC’s official ban on foreign-made consumer routers. This move has effectively frozen the release of next-gen hardware like Wi-Fi 7 in the U.S. market. We explore the implications for your privacy and why Open-Source firmware (OpenWrt) and DIY hardware (OPNsense/pfSense) are now the ultimate safeguards for your digital sovereignty.

    Jill also returns with Part 2 of her SCaLE 23x highlights, featuring heartwarming reunions with Linux legends like Jon “Maddog” Hall and John Robinson (developer of Window Maker), plus a look at the Ubuntu Academy project.

    Finally, we cover the latest in Linux Gaming and AI, including Steam Client updates, VR gaming improvements in GE-Proton, and how TurboQuant is revolutionizing AI memory efficiency.

    Set your phasers to "Open Source" and join us for a "Plus Ultra" level of geekery!

    458: Chasing Freedom & Agentless Security with Sandfly’s Craig Rowland Mar 24, 2026
    Show notes

    Welcome to Episode 458 of Destination Linux! This week, the crew is joined by special guest co-host Craig Rowland of Sandfly Security for a deep dive into the shifting landscape of digital threats.

    In our Security Scoop, we break down the massive IDMerit leak that exposed nearly 1 billion sensitive records and discuss the "industrialization" of malware. We explore how attackers are using LLMs to create "Vibeware" or malware written in exotic languages like Crystal and Nim to bypass traditional EDR signatures.

    Jill takes us on a journey through her Top 5 Highlights from SCaLE 23x in Pasadena, featuring everything from meeting the creator of Lutris to preserving Linux history with "Maddog" and her SCaLE museum.

    For those looking to de-Google their digital lives, Ryan reviews Ente.io, an open-source, end-to-end encrypted photo storage solution that uses local AI for facial recognition, keeping your memories private and secure without losing "smart" features.

    Finally, we cover the latest in the Quickfire News with Zeb.

    Is there a way to use the web without being the product? In Episode 457, the Destination Linux team explores the growing world of decentralized networks and alternative internet protocols. From federated solutions to mesh-style connectivity, we discuss how users are reclaiming their digital sovereignty.

    We also dive into the "Local First" movement with Jan, an open-source tool that allows you to run powerful AI models entirely offline. No subscriptions, no data mining, just pure local compute.

    In the news, we break down the latest corporate shakeup: SUSE is for sale again. We analyze what this means for the enterprise Linux landscape and the community. We also share our "Hidden Gem" open-source apps, including the multi-track video editor Flowblade, and see who survives Zeb’s Quickfire Revenge.

    456: GrapheneOS on Motorola: A New Era for Privacy Hardware Mar 10, 2026
    Show notes

    Welcome to Episode 456 of Destination Linux! This week, Ryan and Jill are joined by guest hosts Zebedee Boss and Nate (CubicleNate) to break down a massive week for mobile privacy and modular hardware.

    The Privacy Breakthrough: Ryan’s prediction comes true as Motorola and GrapheneOS announce an official partnership. We discuss what this means for the "ThinkPhone" line, the end of Pixel exclusivity, and the future of de-Googled mobile devices in the enterprise and government sectors.

    Hardware Innovation: Nate takes us through the Lenovo ThinkBook Modular AI PC. With a detachable secondary OLED screen and swappable I/O tiles, is Lenovo finally taking a page out of the Framework playbook? Plus, we look at the "AI" marketing fatigue and the potential for Linux compatibility on this unique form factor.

    The Policy Battle: Zeb dives into the heated debate surrounding California’s AB 1043 and its impact on Linux distributions. We examine the cautious responses from Canonical and Fedora, and the "ultimatum" issued by community members on the Ubuntu mailing list regarding age-verification code.

    Smarter Updates: Jill explains how Ubuntu 26.04 "Resolute Raccoon" is splitting its massive 600MB firmware package into 17 vendor-specific pieces to save your bandwidth and reduce server strain.
