439: Windows Wild 'n Out, Ubuntu Questing Quokka, Fedora Fights AI
video: https://youtu.be/Vq1lqxvmaWQ
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.

438: Jill's Treasure Hunt, Google vs F-Droid, Samsung Ads on Refrigerators
video: https://youtu.be/GWF9d5CDF9g
Sponsored by Sandfly Security: the revolutionary agentless platform designed for Linux. Visit https://destinationlinux.net/sandfly to experience security that's not just effective but gives you peace of mind. No agents. No downtime. Just cutting-edge protection.
In this episode of Destination Linux, the team dives into global privacy laws and how the UK’s proposed child protection and filtering systems could reshape the internet as we know it. Ryan breaks down Google’s latest developer decree that threatens the very existence of F-Droid and other open-source Android app stores, while Jill takes us on a nostalgic journey through her boxed Linux collection—from Red Hat 5 to Corel Linux and Mandrake 7.0. Nate wraps things up with a look at Samsung’s bizarre decision to push advertisements on $1,800 smart refrigerators. Privacy, history, and a little bit of corporate absurdity all collide in this week’s show.
