What pulls us away from open source and what pulls us back, a cross between Teletext and a bulletin board, a simple way to monitor precise memory usage, boilerplate code without AI, visualising plate tectonics, Tiny Core Linux is still a thing, making websites from screenshots, and more

We'll be recording another episode of Ask The Hosts soon so reply to this with your questions. They can be about anything except Linux and open source. The more philosophical the better!

KDE Plasma 6 is here and Félim can barely contain his excitement. Plus the differing philosophies of GNOME and KDE, Nintendo crushes an open source Switch emulator, Mozilla does another great thing for the Web, another reason to hate Spotify, and more.

In a “brand new” segment we ask how you keep your kids safe online, and give our own thoughts. Plus Will tells us about a dirt cheap ham radio and the new way he sniffs Bluetooth traffic, Félim loves AI when it’s tracking his head, the open source way to control lighting rigs, a BBS-like interface to sites like Hacker News, yet another Spotify replacement, Damn Small Linux returns, and more.

Gary’s recent (mostly) good experience with an Arm Chromebook makes us wonder about the current state of proper Linux on Arm laptops. Plus follow up on why the Wyse 5070 has some limitations, but is still a great little x86 box.

The BBC is sticking around on Mastodon, Signal gets a huge new feature, yet another win for the Asahi team, a surprising company commits to FOSS, Apple kills web apps in the EU, Mozilla focuses on Firefox… and AI, Graham tells us about Canonical’s new Open Documentation Academy, and to celebrate this week’s release of Plasma 6 we let Félim do a short KDE Korner.

We could do with some good (non-Linux) philosophical questions for the next episode of Ask The Hosts. So let's have them!

LateNightLinux, 3 months ago to linux

Gary’s recent trip to FOSDEM made him wonder if the type of Linux user who goes to FOSS events has changed. Has the demographic shifted more towards “normal” people who use Linux as a tool rather than something to tinker with? Plus more on planned obsolescence, and a quick prediction about the Apple Vision Pro.

Chris from ExplainingComputers joins us to discuss his Promoting Linux: An End-User Manifesto video. We talk about being an advocate and not a gatekeeper, being tolerant of other people’s choices, accepting that not everyone can use Linux, spreading the word that Linux has improved over the years, contributing where you can, and more.
