This week we're talking about Distro releases, like Ubuntu's Resolute Raccoon, Fedora's 44, and the scuttlebut about Microsoft Azure Linux. Then there's the latest and greatest Ryzen chip, Linux drivers being retired, and Firefox turns 150. And don't forget the newest Framework, and the LeafKVM launches. For tips, we cover Perch for TUI micro-blogging, f3 for finding fake flash, eget for easy installs, and SDRAngel for surfing the airwaves on your SDR!

As you have doubtless heard, the White House has once again proposed drastic budget cuts of about 24% for NASA's 2027 budget. It's deja vu all over again for us, as we followed an almost identical story last year. And as with last year, Congress has signaled the new budget to be DOA. This time, however, we had a NASA administrator in the seat when this budget arrived and he said he could work with it—despite a near halving of the NASA science budget and proposed cancellation of well over 50 science missions, many already successful and returning great science after the bulk of the program has been paid for. We invited Jenniter Vaughn, the CEO of The Planetary Society, onto the show to discuss.

Amanda Silberling joins Mikah Sargent on this episode of Tech News Weekly! Amanda is impressed with ChatGPT's Images 2.0 model. Some companies and tech giants are pushing back on stricter emissions reporting rules. Unauthorized users have accessed Anthropic's new Mythos AI model. And Framework announces its Laptop 13 Pro.

Amanda talks about ChatGPT's Images 2.0 model and how it's a huge improvement in generating text compared to other image-generating AI models.

Mikah shares how more than 60 companies, including Apple & Amazon, are pushing back on the possible tightening of emissions reporting standards as the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, a global standard-setter, looks to tamp down on greenwashing risks.

Mikah also talks about how unauthorized users have accessed Anthropic's Mythos Model, setting up the possibility of dangerous cyberattacks down the road, as the AI model is more powerful than other models easily accessible to the public.

And Sean Hollister of The Verge joins the show again to talk about Framework's new Laptop 13 Pro that Framework CEO Nirav Patel says is "the MacBook Pro for Linux users."
