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!

Host: Jonathan Bennett

Co-Hosts: Rob Campbell, Ken McDonald, and Jeff Massie

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. This week, we speak with Aarti Holla-Maini, the director of UNOOSA, and Dr. Rick Jenet, the executive director of Expanding Frontiers and the National Space Society's representative to the UN, about the importance of this office. It's a wide-ranging discussion of the intersection of international space efforts and the intersection with commercial space as we expand activities into Earth orbit, the moon, and beyond.
