So, we have the alpha for the #Cosmic desktop, and for #GNOME 46, we have the release of the kernel 6.7, another entry in the "#Wayland breaks everything" saga, #Mint 21.3, and a SteamOS-based device coming out soon!
If you're bored this Sunday, here is the remedy: your weekly dose of #Linux and #OpenSource news!
In this video, we have a new Microsoft Surface equivalent, designed to run Linux, we have the #GNOME 45 beta and a few cool new features in it, we have more details about #COSMIC customization, similar to Material You, and #SUSE going private.
I'm looking for an #Artist (digital or otherwise) whom I can commission to create some #Whimsical and #Naughy images to go with my words. The #Art I need is mostly of #Sexy objects that I might use for fun stickers and the like. Some experience with #Fantasy, #SciFi, and #Cosmic elements would be great, too, but not required. Please reach out if you're interested in this kind of collab. DMs ok.
If you're not an artist, boosts appreciated for reach 🤗
I just installed COSMIC Desktop on Fedora 40. It works smoothly and is very fast. All apps open instantly with no glitches or hangs, and everything functions perfectly. Well Done, COSMIC team. #cosmic#desktop#fedora40#system76
Time for your weekly #Linux and #OpenSource News video! In this one, we have more weird moves from #Google to fight ad blockers on Youtube and Chrome, in a pretty bad way, and we have some nice updates on the progress of the #Cosmic desktop, on #KDE Plasma 6, and #GNOME putting their recent influx of cash to good use:
🦀 System76 Now Planning For COSMIC Desktop Alpha Release In Late May | Phoronix
「 System76 had been planning an initial alpha release of their Rust-written COSMIC desktop environment to debut at the end of Q1 (March), but now they are delaying the first alpha to May for allowing time to wrap up feature work on their new desktop apps 」
In this one, #Gentoo says no to #AI, and Linus Torvalds finds it "hilarious", we also have a flaw in #Flatpak, plus #Cosmic showing off its theming capabilities, at least for GTK apps, plus some good news for Linux gaming!

We have no explanations for this sort of slow repeat.
