This week we're contemplating an Untitled Ginux Show -- or at least that's the bit, based on the completely vibe-coded Linux replacement we talk about. Then CachyOS has a surprisingly underwhelming benchmark performance, with some details to unpack. OpenEuler keeps the AI hype train running, System76 has an impressive desktop announcement, and it looks like a new Raspberry Pi is finally coming. Floorp is an interesting take on the browser, Omarchy is coming for BSD, and Ubuntu has lots planned for Tenacious T-Rex. For tips, we have kernwatch and filelight for system monitoring, ebook-meta for more library management, and vt-cli for Virus Total access without the browser. The show notes are at https://bit.ly/4sCpoh9 and Happy Halloween!
