The kernel is ground zero for AI coding wars, and Torvalds is ranting about it. The Linux foundation made good use of their funds last year, and the average kernel bug has a surprisingly long life. Then we talk about the possible death of the middle-click, Steam and ARM64, and the liquorix kernel. There's a budgie release and big Raytracing performance uplift! For tips we have the fresh text editor, alsa-info, and clear! You can find the show notes at https://bit.ly/3N79tHc and Happy linuxing!

2026 promises to be the most exciting year in the new space age yet! Shining bright is the prospect of an Artemis II launch to send astronauts around the moon for the first time since 1972, as early as February. We've already seen news about a medical incident on the International Space Station that will force a crew to return to Earth early, but NASA says this won't affect the Artemis launch. On other news, NASA's budget seems on track to be passed at near 2025 levels, China is preparing to send a robot to the south lunar pole, SpaceX plans robust tests of Starship this year—and hopefully refinement of their lander for Artemis III, Boeing will fly Starliner again (uncrewed), Mars Sample Return is poised to be scuttled, and all this under the leadership of a new—and apparently quite capable—NASA administrator, Jared Isaacman. Join us for an in-depth look at what's coming in 2026!
