This episode dives into a wild mix of major Linux and tech news — from Microsoft teasing a mysterious “big” Windows announcement (and our sarcastic predictions about it), to Ubuntu’s brand-new Questing Quokka release, to a refreshed Raspberry Pi OS that modernizes its entire desktop experience. We also unpack the heated community debate around Fedora’s new AI policy and what it means for open-source projects going forward.
