ULS 253: Patch Out the Fun - CopyFail, AI Ubuntu, & Finally HDMI

About this episode

The episode discusses Ubuntu's AI future, DDoS attacks on FOSS infrastructure, and improvements in HDMI technology.

Ubuntu has announced their AI future, and it's ... not actually terrible. CopyFail has us all patching, though thankfully it's not an "Internet-melter". There's a DDoS on FOSS infrastructure, a new directory in your home folder, and finally good news on the HDMI 2.1 front. For tips we talk toofan for typing practice, why copy and paste needs "shift", and a quicker primer on getting the most out of bash history.
