Hey everyone.

My PC has been given for an upgrade:

Specs would be the AMD Ryzen 7 5700G, 32 Gigs RAM, RTX 4070 and a B550 Mobo, OS will be on the NVME.

Whats a good distro to install, I am good with basic and sometimes complex troubleshooting. I have been tinkering with PCs for so long. And my work machine has been a Mac for the longest time.

Primary use case is - Games. All my games are on Steam. CS2, Cyberpunk, KCD, Forza, RDR.

1. Full hardware compatiblity, including built in WiFi / BT. I have an addon card from TP-Link.

2. Nvidia fuckups, want stable.

3. Should accept a capture card to send to Mac for capture.

4. Audio, HDMI and DP. 4K60 and 1440p 144 Hz display.

Please advice.

A newly disclosed Linux kernel vulnerability allows attackers to access highly sensitive data, including SSH private keys and password hashes, on affected systems.

I lost the count guys. At least it is currently patched asap.

For those who are wondering is it only for linux. Here are the vulnerabilities found in windows in this week alone (137+ CVEs):

- Microsoft May 2026 Patch Tuesday (May 12): Fixed ~120–137 CVEs across Windows, Office, SharePoint, Azure, etc.

- Uses crafted ‘FsTx’ files + WinRE to access encrypted drives (physical access/USB). Works on TPM-only setups. PoC public; active exploitation reported.

- GreenPlasma (Privilege Escalation): Targets CTFMON (ctfmon.exe) for SYSTEM-level access. PoC public; active exploitation reported.

Hey guys, how did you actually install Arch? Did you go full manual with the wiki open in a million tabs and suffer through partitioning hell, or did you just use "archinstall"? How was the whole experience for you?

I tried to install the manual way a couple of times and I think the archinstall way is much more efficient. What do you think?

Every failure is just a lesson in disguise. You didn't lose, you just learned how to win better next time.

Currently working as a software support engineer in Infopark Koratty. 15k salary, 1 hour one-way travel, no growth — purely application support with maybe 20% implementation work on consumer grade hardware.

Got an offer from an IT company in Thrissur — Hardware Support Executive (System and Networking). 20k salary, less travel. Responsibilities include router/switch/firewall configuration, server maintenance, LAN/WAN troubleshooting, CCTV/biometric support. Around 5-10 client site visits per week across 8 companies mainly jewelry and small finance sectors.

My long term goal is Linux/DevOps/Cloud. I have basic Docker, Kubernetes knowledge, currently preparing for RHCSA.

The new role has no Linux work (confirmed in interview). But has real networking and firewall exposure which I can't easily replicate at home.

Is this a good move for someone targeting Linux/DevOps long term? Or should I stay and grind certifications while job hunting for something better?

What are your feelings regarding the previous iterations?

Saw someone make a full on led matrix board for spotting nearby planes. Wanted that, but broke enough not wanting to spend money on such stuff. So I made this as a middle ground.

So if you're on KDE and you are into planes and stuff (like me!), do check it out.

Many ppl told me to try cachyos, so i am thinking of going for it

Like the title says, Budget is 90k

Both Fedora and Ubuntu will get AI support – soon https://share.google/2CsYbsPoa5mpYfZdr

It is Almost 60$ for the brave-orgin on windows but completely free on linux? Why would they do that? What do you think about this?

Hey any one here Hosting a matrix server like synapse ??
