Late Night Linux – Episode 254
We imagine a scenario where we aren’t allowed to use Linux, try to decide what we’d use instead, and realise how much we actually appreciate it. Plus mixed news in the RISC-V world, a glimmer of hope for desktop Linux on Arm, YouTube’s adblock tracking might be against the GDPR, and a micro KDE Korner.
Jim’s post about the empty WSL talk at the Ubuntu Summit.
