Episode 6:13: Worse Open Source with More Steps

Coming up in this episode LP Cam RAM is here Closing the open source Get your stars aligned 0:00 Cold Open 1:32 LPCAMM2 Might Change the Game 26:48 Malus in Wonderland 41:22 Reaching for the Stars 1:19:39 Next Time 1:23:26 Stinger The Video Version Today in User Space we get excited for the future of Low Profile memory with LPCAMM2 showing up lately in the Framework 13 Pro's Intel boards giving speed and power savings we've never seen before. On paper, it's as good as the Mac unified memory, but will it actually live up to the hype on the new Intel chips? Then, we find out Malus is out here copying open source software and adjusting it enough that it becomes... liberated? Described as 'satire,' this tool, at least on its surface, does seem to do exactly what it says on the tin. But why? And finally, we spend a lot of time talking about Ubuntu 26.04's release, and it turns out, some of the highlights are really interesting. Password feedback lets us meander into a much longer security debate about shoulder surfing, why TPM's and encryption are good, actually, the Gnome Resources app, which is surprisingly good, but we forgot to remember about it, and then we try to figure out when the right time to update really is. 📣Announcements📣 This program was made possible by: 📺️ Youtube 📽️ TILvids And by contributions to your L-U-S station by Patrons like you 😍 Go to our Links 🔗 Page for more places to find us LPCAMM2 Memory is gaining traction LPCAMM2 memory Nextgen Framework Framework 13 configurator More of this will help the RAM situation 📣More Announcements📣 Want to have a topic covered or have some feedback? - send us an email, contact@linuxuserspace.show OR jump on over to the open forum on Lemmy Go to our Links 🔗 Page for more places to find us Open Source can be magicked into Closed Source without Violating Copyright (Left) Malus archive.today link to 404 Media article But shouldn't it be Public Domain? 🧹Housekeeping🧹 Catch these and other great topics as they unfold on our Subreddit or our News channel on Discord.
