Open source is facing a security problem unlike anything we’ve seen before. Maintainers are overwhelmed, developers are drowning in low-quality vulnerability reports, and AI is making it easier than ever to search for weaknesses at scale.
In Destination Linux Episode 491, Ryan, Jill, and Zeb sit down with Aisle CEO and Co-Founder Ondrej Vlcek for a fascinating conversation about the future of open-source security.
Ondrej takes us through his journey into cybersecurity, his career at Avast, and what ultimately led him to co-found Aisle. From there, we dig into what’s broken with the traditional “scan, prioritize, and patch” approach, how developers can separate real threats from mountains of noise, and how AI is changing the battle between attackers and defenders.
We also explore how Aisle fits into developer workflows, who the platform is designed for, the challenges facing projects such as PHP, and what autonomous security could mean for open-source software.
Plus, Community Feedback takes us into a very different security and privacy debate: online age verification, TPM requirements, digital identity, older hardware, and the potential implications for Linux users.
And with Destination Linux rapidly approaching Episode 500, we want your ideas for how we should celebrate!
Grab your favorite distro, keep that sudo password handy, and join us for Destination Linux Episode 491.

Are your Linux habits slowly breaking your system?
On Destination Linux 490, Rocco joins the crew as we look at the Linux habits that can come back to haunt you, including the problems that can arise around PPAs, repositories, and the choices we make while tinkering with our systems.
But that’s just the beginning.
A smartwatch you actually own? Ryan introduces the UNA Watch, a smartwatch built around open hardware, open-source software, repairability, hackability, privacy, and user freedom. Could this be the wearable Linux and open-source enthusiasts have been waiting for?
Linux Kernel 7.3 brings some exciting changes, including improvements for Linux gaming and AMD GPUs with limited VRAM, Ext4 performance, system responsiveness, hardware support, and more.
Is AI-generated creativity actually art? Community feedback sends us back into the AI art debate with The Moonbeam Patrol, a story written by an open-source AI and brought to life by a human artist.
OBS Studio 33 vs. Ubuntu 24.04 LTS: Zeb asks why OBS would retire support for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS and whether Linux creators should actually be concerned.
And the chaos doesn't stop when the podcast ends. We kicked off our first Destination Linux community game stream with Jackbox!

Shownotes
In Destination Linux Episode 489, Ryan and Jill deliver a tight, focused episode centered around community perspectives, major security news, and an inspiring interview with the organizers of India’s rapidly growing Opportunity Open Source Conference (OOSC).
We begin with community feedback on AI art, exploring how prompting, creativity, and human intention intersect in this evolving medium.
Then we dive into the PHP2Shell emergency: two critical vulnerabilities (CVE‑2026‑109618 and CVE‑2026‑109619) affecting PHP’s session.upload_progress feature. These flaws allow unauthenticated remote code execution and forced an emergency patch release. We break down what happened, who’s affected, and what everyday users, site owners, and administrators need to do right now.
In our feature interview, we welcome Akarshan and Till Kamppeter from OOSC, founded by OpenPrinting’s Till Kamppeter and Aveek Basu. OOSC 4.0 brought together more than 500 developers, researchers, and students, and the team used Destination Linux as a framework for their streaming and event structure. We talk inspiration, challenges, community impact, and the future of OOSC.
Plus new patrons, merch shoutouts, and plenty of laughs along the way.
Boot up your favorite distro, fire up your terminal, and join us for another Linux adventure.

Shownotes
In Destination Linux Episode 487, Ryan hosts an episode packed with open‑source news, community stories, and the triumphant return of Rocco, bringing that classic Big Daddy Linux energy back to the show for the second time in a single month.
We kick things off with heartfelt community feedback from O.C. Supertoner, followed by a lively discussion about AI‑generated code and whether Linux users should embrace or reject LLM‑assisted development. Rocco shares his thoughts on the new Hylki email client for GNOME and the growing debate around AI contributions in open‑source projects.
Zeb covers the end of the Orion browser for Linux and the implications of Kagi open‑sourcing its codebase. He also dives into the Netherlands’ bold move to adopt a Nix‑based government desktop after sanctions disrupted ICC access to Microsoft services, plus Amazon blocking Meta’s AI shopping agent.
It’s a fun, fast‑moving episode full of laughs, insights, and the open‑source passion that makes Destination Linux feel like home.

Welcome to Destination Linux Episode 481. Ryan and Jill are joined by returning guest host Craig Rowland, founder and CEO of Sandfly Security, for a deep dive into the latest security, AI, and Linux news.
We explore the realities of surveillance, motion‑sensing routers with privacy tradeoffs, and Craig’s full breakdown of the chaos and hype coming out of Black Hat - including agentic AI, guardrails that don’t guard anything, and the growing divide between restricted AI and open‑weight models. Craig also covers the Cold Incident Response Conference, AI‑powered threat detection, and a Bitcoin RNG hack that proves why dice still matter.
Jill celebrates Linux’s 35th birthday and Valve’s 30th anniversary with a look back at the milestones that shaped open source, gaming, and the Linux desktop.

Welcome to Destination Linux Episode 480. Jill is back from the 60th Anniversary Star Trek Convention with stories from Las Vegas, and Ryan and Zeb join her for a full week of Linux news and discussion.
We celebrate Debian’s 33rd birthday, look at Discord’s newly increased upload limits, explore the lightweight MarkLite Markdown editor, and dive into one of Jill’s favorite new features in Linux Kernel 7.2: USB4STREAM, a retro‑cool way to transfer data directly between machines.
Ryan covers the growing conflict between GrapheneOS and Fairphone, examining what it means for privacy, repairability, and secure mobile devices.

Shownotes
Welcome to Destination Linux Episode 479. Jill is out this week at a Star Trek convention, but Ryan and Zeb are joined by Mathieu from Lutris for a deep dive into one of the most important topics in modern computing: the merging of physical surveillance and digital identity.
We examine how systems like Flock Safety cameras are forming a private nationwide tracking grid, how multiple industries are integrating this data, and how governments are pushing OS‑level identity verification that could fundamentally reshape how Linux systems operate. We break down how these systems work, how they’re already being abused, and why they conflict with open‑source values.
We also cover community feedback, kernel fixes, Calibre updates, SparkyLinux’s return to 32‑bit support, and Mathieu’s topic on the decline of LUGs and the future of Linux community education.

Linux is Punk Rock! This week, listener Isaac proves it. He's recording local bands at a friend's record shop using a near $0 Linux setup: a thrifted mixer, a 2008 M-Audio interface that Windows 11 abandoned, Ardour, Audacity, OBS, and Kdenlive. That's open source closing the digital divide, and it's the most punk thing we've heard all year.
Then we tackle the big story everyone's talking about: Sony is going full digital-only, no more physical game discs. But the scarier headline is that Sony has already started removing movies people purchased from their libraries with no refund and no warning. Ryan breaks down what this means for digital ownership, why DRM is a trap, and why platforms like GOG and Itch.io are the real answer.
Jill brings the good news: SteamOS 3.8 is now officially available for installation on standard home PCs with AMD GPUs. With 132 million monthly Steam users, this might be the biggest mainstream moment Linux gaming has ever had. The year of the Linux desktop might just be the year SteamOS goes everywhere.
Zeb covers ClamAV 1.5.3 and why it still matters (and when it doesn't), KDE Plasma 6.8's long-overdue multi-monitor improvements, and why that headline claiming Windows dropped below 60% market share deserves a serious side-eye.

Heroes never die... and neither does open source! Welcome to Destination Linux Episode 471. This week, Jill takes the lead, with Ryan and Zeb locking in their roles to help move the payload.
First up in the lobby, we bring in a special VIP segment featuring Mo and guest Jeff Ligon from Red Hat to dive deep into Linux in the automotive space. How does a car's kernel differ from your laptop, and how does open source handle strict real-time safety regulations?
Next, a Grandmaster-level milestone: DistroWatch just turned 25! We look back at the history of distro-hopping, the days of ordering physical Linux CDs in the mail, and how the ecosystem has evolved into modern immutable architectures.
Then, Zeb calls out an enemy Ultimate in the news. The Arch User Repository (AUR) has faced consecutive malware attacks, and we break down what you need to know to stay safe. Plus, we highlight the brand-new features of the Linux 7.1 kernel release!

Shownotes
In Episode 469 of Destination Linux, hosts Jill and Zeb are joined by guest co-host Craig from Sandfly Security to unpack a massive week of Linux, hardware, and cybersecurity news while Ryan recovers from surgery.
The hardware segment kicks off with a look at Computex 2026, where AMD delighted budget-conscious builders by extending AM5 socket support through 2029 and launching two affordable new X3D processors. Meanwhile, Nvidia shook up the landscape by unveiling the RTX Spark Superchip—a power-efficient Arm CPU/GPU hybrid aimed at turning desktops into agentic AI environments, with Linux kernel compliance already on the horizon.
In security and development news, the panel dives into a sophisticated supply chain attack that backdoored dozens of popular packages under Red Hat's official NPM channel using a credential-stealing worm named Miasma. Craig shares vital strategies for handling software supply chain risks, advising developers to age their packages and stick to building inside containers or remote hosts. The team also discusses the community backlash surrounding GitHub Copilot’s shift to a usage-based "AI Credit" system, which has reportedly caused estimated costs to skyrocket by up to 1000% for some users.
Finally, the show wraps up with updates on the upcoming Linux 7.1 stable kernel release, a warm welcome to the EFF's powerhouse new Executive Director, Nicole Ozer, and a celebration of Phoronix's 22nd anniversary.

Welcome to Destination Linux Episode 468! For the first time in years, we are tossing out the rulebook and recording completely live, raw, and uncut on a Saturday alongside our amazing Patron crew. Stepping on deck as a special guest host this week is Mathieu, the creator of Lutris Gaming!
The Tech Horizon: Nvidia's N1X & Microsoft's ARM FutureRyan steers the ship into turbulent hardware waters. Microsoft and Nvidia are teasing a "New Era of PC," heavily rumored to be Nvidia's aggressive entrance into the consumer CPU space with the N1X, a high-performance, ARM-based System-on-Chip (SoC). Packed with 20 CPU cores and a Blackwell-based graphics architecture boasting 6,144 CUDA cores, this unified memory monster could completely shift the landscape for local AI developers, PyTorch modeling, and video editors. We discuss what this unified architecture means for power-hungry x86 designs from Intel and AMD, and whether Microsoft's WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) is the secret bridge to passing local GPU stacks through to developers.
Jill's Treasure Hunt: The "No Man's Sky" Teal Build & LACTJill unveils her latest hardware masterpiece: a gorgeous, Mini-ITX computer build decked out in a vibrant teal theme dedicated to No Man's Sky (complete with Tux and Steam logos!). She breaks down the financial savvy of buying duplicate parts in 2025 before the massive 2026 hardware price spikes, demonstrating how she saved nearly 50% on components like DDR4 RAM and NVMe SSDs.
More importantly, Jill walks us through how she solved a massive headache plaguing Linux gamers running Unreal Engine 4 and 5 titles on AMD Radeon GPUs: aggressive overheating and sudden shutdowns. The savior? LACT (Linux GPU Configuration and Monitoring Tool). She details how implementing custom fan curves using this open-source application completely tamed her RX 6600, keeping things whisper-quiet and cool.
Open Source Contributor Drama & Legal WinsMathieu highlights a creeping, dystopian trend in open-source development: projects like the Dillo browser asking contributors to record webcam videos of themselves coding to provide "proof of humanity" against AI slop contributions. We dive into why these Captcha-like hurdles ultimately hurt real human developers more than they deter automated agents. Mathieu also addresses the shocking, corporate-style layoffs at the Wikimedia Foundation, where MediaWiki lead developer Brooke Vibber and the entire Community Tech team, largely composed of union organizers,were suddenly let go, prompting potential strikes from Wikipedia editors.
On a brighter note, Zeb delivers a massive victory for digital privacy: both California and Colorado have officially revised their Digital Age Verification laws to completely exempt open-source operating systems, ensuring Linux distributions won't face impossible legal compliance hurdles and we hear from our Patrons!

This week, Jill captains the ship with her faithful copilots Ryan and Zeb, alongside special guest host Máirín “Mo” Duffy, an AI and design expert direct from Red Hat! We kick things off with community feedback exploring the challenges and workflows of implementing open-source software in the non-profit and NGO sector.
Then, we dive into a major funding announcement as the German Sovereign Tech Fund invests over 1 million Euros into KDE to level up its structural reliability, security, and digital sovereignty. Next, with Mo in the house, we get the exclusive inside scoop and recap from the Red Hat Summit, highlighting RHEL developments, Fedora Hummingbird, Podman Desktop sandboxes, OpenKaiden, and how NASA is using OpenShift Virtualization for deep space mission operations.
Finally, we wrap up by tackling the chilling reality of how data centers and massive AI interconnect requests are placing an unprecedented strain on the US power grid and drinking water infrastructures.

Welcome to Episode 466 of Destination Linux! After a week away dealing with the literal "ghosts in the machines," Ryan returns to join Jill and Zeb, proving you can't keep a good host down.
We kick off the show with an important community feedback segment addressing a "Puzzled Parent" who wants to keep their kids safe online using open-source tools. The team breaks down excellent FOSS solutions for the Linux desktop, router-level blocking (like Pi-hole and NextDNS), and open-source mobile tools for /e/OS like NetGuard and TimeLimit.
Next, Ryan takes us on his personal journey from Server Purgatory to Paradise. He walks through setting up a low-power, budget-friendly HP Prodesk mini-server from eBay, detailing his troubleshooting nightmare with an unbaked Ubuntu install, his redemption using Fedora, and how he deployed a modern stack using Podman, Cockpit, Tailscale, and Filebrowser.
In hardware news, Jill delivers some bittersweet "end of an era" updates as the classic AMD K5 processor family and the Intel 486 are officially deprecated and removed from the upcoming Linux Kernel. We discuss why 30-year-old museum-grade hardware is being phased out due to maintenance burdens and share the best retro-distributions to keep your vintage rigs alive.
Finally, Zeb brings us up to speed on the "Dirty Frag" local privilege escalation vulnerability and how the latest Linux kernel stable releases fully mitigate it. We wrap up the show by celebrating the 30th birthday of Tux the Penguin, sharing the hilarious origin story of how a zoo animal bite in 1993 led to Larry Ewing designing the ultimate mascot in GIMP.

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.

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.

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.
