2/15/2026
The Linux Kernel 6.19 is out, the Rust experiment is over, and it's time to talk about 7.0. Vim 9.2 is out, with a bit of a weird new feature in its changelogs, and IPFire is an intriguing, community-driven security domain block list. PearOS has a new release for those seeking an Apple-inspired Linux experience, and Linux Mint is adjusting its release schedule to better manage developer and tester schedules. River is a new project trying to do Wayland support with a modular Desktop stack, and Mesa 26.0 is out with impressive performance gains. For tips, we have cull for finding and deleting big files, a systemd program for detecting if the OS is running virtualized, preload for caching applications in ram, and new_script for a script-writing tool that *doesn't* feature an LLM. You can find the show notes at https://bit.ly/3ZCNcEc and happy Linux'ing!

This Week in Space 197: Inside UNOOSA

Most people don't think of spaceflight when talking about the United Nations, but the UN, through its Office of Outer Space Affairs, or UNOOSA, has been pivotal in securing agreements on space poilicy and behavioral norms.

Windows Weekly 970: Token Kill!
2/11/2026
After years of ignoring and maligning Windows, Microsoft has finally woken up and is making some happy noises. Last week, we discussed how Microsoft plans to improve the quality of Windows and that there are already many signs of that work in various security features and new OneDrive Folder Backup changes - plus those two new direct reports to Nadella. Then, Microsoft announced its Windows Baseline Security Mode and User Transparency and Consent initiatives with questions about the timing. And now, Microsoft just explained Windows 11 version 26H1, and it's not like 24H2 at all despite being tied to Snapdragon X2 silicon.
Something happened ... and that something is tied to 26H1

This Week in Space 196: Becoming Martian!
2/6/2026
It is widely accepted that over time, humanity will need to expand its presence into the solar system. What are the challenges? Well, space and our nearby worlds have proved to be a much greater challenge than we had long thought. While the rigors of zero-g have been well researched on the International Space Station, the challenges of living in lower gravity, such as that found on the moon and Mars, has not yet been explored. And human reproduction in space, along with genetic challenges, is a complete unknown. Rice Univeristy professor and researcher Scott Solomon joins us to explore these topics in depth, and to posit possible solutions.
