IBM is coming for Red Hat developers...sometime in 2019 • DEVCLASS — But, “Number one is the people of Red Hat…we’ve got to preserve absolutely this Switzerland [status].” By coincidence, the population of Switzerland is slightly North of 8 million, roughly the same as Red Hat’s worldwide developer community. Rometty also said “We now have access to the world’s largest developer community.”
IBM strikes deal to buy Red Hat for $34 billion - Business Insider — IBM will pay $190 a share for the software company, which it described as the world's leading provider of open-source cloud software, a premium of more than 60% from Red Hat's closing stock price of $116.68 on Friday. Shares traded upward of $175 in June, but disappointing earnings combined with a volatile market to see the price drop sharply.

Anker’s minuscule 27W USB-C brick looks like the charging future we’ve been promised - The Verge — Anker has been a leader when it comes to cheap and reliable USB-C cables and power bricks for years, but at its press event in New York, the company may have just changed the game with the newly announced Powerport Atom PD 1 power brick. It’s a 27W USB-C PD charger that’s the size of the junky 5W plug that Apple gives you for free with your iPhone.
Google mandates two years of security updates for popular phones in new Android contract - The Verge — A contract obtained by The Verge requires Android device makers to regularly install updates for any popular phone or tablet for at least two years. Google’s contract with Android partners stipulates that they must provide “at least four security updates” within one year of the phone’s launch. Security updates are mandated within the second year as well, though without a specified minimum number of releases.
Apple and Samsung fined for deliberately slowing down phones | Technology | The Guardian — An investigation launched in January by the nation’s competition authority found that certain smartphone software updates had a negative effect on the performance of the devices. Believed to be the first ruling of its kind against smartphone manufacturers, the investigation followed accusations operating system updates for older phones slowed them down, thereby encouraging the purchase of new phones. In a statement the antitrust watchdog said “Apple and Samsung implemented dishonest commercial practices” and that operating system updates “caused serious malfunctions and significantly reduced performance, thus accelerating phones’ substitution”.

Girlfriend uses Linux and FOSS for camming : linux — Girlfriend uses Linux and FOSS for camming I gave her a Logitech BRIO for her birthday, installed Pop!_OS and set her up with OBS so she can stream her nakedness to the world! She uses Flowblade to edit commissions. Everything works. I couldn't be more proud of her: I never have to play tech support. The only problem I've found is the performance of the BRIO's drivers on Linux (UVC) vs Windows. She doesn't get 4k output, which is fine, because who streams a camgirl at 4k right? And I think users much prefer the higher framerate of 60 fps at 1080p. BUT there are significant focus hunting issues and that is a huge pain in the ass. TL;DR: Girlfriend is a camgirl and uses Linux for streaming and video production. Another victory for Free Software!

Episode 89: Privacy Matters

Noah J. Chelliah — Tue, 09 Oct 2018 19:00:00 -0500

Supermicro suffered a huge security breach that gave the Chinese government access to servers manufactured with Supermicro boards. This revelation has caused companies like Apple and Amazon to distance themselves from the popular server manufacture. Unifi has announced that their new "Unifi Protect" will only be available on their hardware and not user built boxes. We dive into all of this plus an update from Simon Quigley on Lubuntu 18.10!

Users fret over Chrome auto-login change – Naked Security — Chrome has long included a feature that lets you log in, connecting the browser directly to your Google account. This lets the browser, via its sync feature, store information about your web usage on Google’s servers, including your browsing history, bookmarks, tabs, autofill information, and a list of your installed extensions. Google provides it as a convenience for users because it enables them to synchronise the browser environment across their devices.

Chrome OS Files app getting a “Share with Linux” option for Project Crostini – About Chromebooks — Running Linux through Project Crostini on a Chromebook is great although it brings some confusion and inefficiency when it comes to file management. While you can view data files from the Linux container in the Chrome OS Files app, it’s not quite as easy the other way around. To mitigate this, a new “Share with Linux” menu option will be in the Chrome OS Files application.
Why I’m done with Chrome – A Few Thoughts on Cryptographic Engineering — A few weeks ago Google shipped an update to Chrome that fundamentally changes the sign-in experience. From now on, every time you log into a Google property (for example, Gmail), Chrome will automatically sign the browser into your Google account for you. It’ll do this without asking, or even explicitly notifying you. (However, and this is important: Google developers claim this will not actually start synchronizing your data to Google — yet. See further below.)

Does This Make FOSS Better or Worse | Ask Noah Show 85

Does the "Commons Clause" help the commons? The Commons Clause was announced recently along with several projects moving portions of their code base under it. It's an additional restriction intended to be applied to existing open source licenses with the effect of preventing the work from being sold. We play devils advocate and tell you why this might not be such a bad thing. As always your calls go to the front of the line, and we give you the details on how you can win free stuff in the Telegram group!

Elementary OS First Impressions: A Simple, Beautiful Doorway To Linux — As part of my journey into the expansive and exciting world of Linux desktops, I’ve been engaging in a behavior known as “distro hopping.” I’m sure many Linux users have their personal reasons for doing this, but for me it’s fueled in equal parts by curiosity and knowledge hunting. So recently, I (temporarily) left the comfortable embrace of Ubuntu to discover the different philosophies and approaches developers have to designing a Linux OS. One of my first stops was Elementary OS 0.4.1. Loki.
Life is Strange released for Linux & SteamOS, some thoughts and a port report included | GamingOnLinux — Life is Strange is a story rich game I’ve been wanting to play ever since I first saw it and now, thanks to Feral Interactive, we all have that chance.

It has five episodes in total.
linux - How do you run a script on login in *nix? - Stack Overflow — When Bash starts, it executes the commands in a variety of different scripts. When Bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, it first reads and executes commands from the file /etc/profile, if that file exists. After reading that file, it looks for ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile, in that order, and reads and executes commands from the first one that exists and is readable. When a login shell exits, Bash reads and executes commands from the file ~/.bash_logout, if it exists. When an interactive shell that is not a login shell is started, Bash reads and executes commands from ~/.bashrc, if that file exists. This may be inhibited by using the --norc option. The --rcfile file option will force Bash to read and execute commands from file instead of ~/.bashrc.
