621: The Sunday Secret Sauce

In this episode of the Linux Unplugged podcast, Chris, Wes, and Brent share clips from their "bootleg" version of the show, which includes unaired content and discussions. They delve into concerns about the GrapheneOS project and the increasing use of the Play Integrity API, its implications, and potential alternatives like LineageOS or even a return to iPhones. They also discuss Hector Martin's resignation as a Linux kernel maintainer and the challenges facing Asahi Linux with the new M4 chips. Additionally, they cover the Framework's new desktop machine, Wes's acquisition of a Dell Thunderbolt dock, and an analysis of Starlink's user terminal, including its reliance on C++ for network packets and the presence of an "Ethernet Data Recorder." They also touch on recent Windows update issues and showcase AI-generated content based on their voices, followed by advertisements for Tailscale, 1Password, and Unraid.
