As Ubuntu embraces AI, community backlash halts Fedora’s AI Desktop plans

2026-07-05 15:01:26

The effect of AI on the Linux ecosystem is very interesting. Some groups accept AI coding and agent tools, citing it as an unavoidable next step in how people use their PCs and code features. The Linux kernel officially allows submissions generated by AI code (as long as the submitter is the one responsible for any issues, not the agent), and Ubuntu now lets you dictate into any text box using AI.

This cool fan-made website shows you the last 25 years of your life with Xbox

How long have you been an Xbox gamer? One of the coolest parts of being a part of Microsoft's gaming ecosystem is that things very rarely deprecate. Stuff like your gamer score and your library of older games comes with you even if you started with the original Xbox, meaning all your memories are nicely stored away in one place.

Microsoft responds to Teams privacy concerns by adding a way to disable its AI mid-meeting

AI assistants have permeated the world of online meetings quite a lot. People holding meetings deploy AI assistants to keep notes of everything said and covered. Attendees will sometimes invite their own bots to keep track of everything, or even stand in for them. However, with all these bots listening in and keeping notes, it creates a privacy issue. Where's all that information going, and who can get access to it?

Android's desktop mode is impressive, but the dock is what actually makes it work

2026-07-05 08:01:21

There's no denying the fact that for years, Android phones have been more than powerful enough to handle everyday work. However, actually getting work done on a phone has always felt cramped. Be it writing long documents, juggling multiple apps, or managing files across cloud storage, it isn't very comfortable. Yes, I have a laptop, but often enough when I'm writing down notes on my Android phone, I would like the ability to just use the same device to draft out a full document as well.

I switched to OLED for my entire setup, but I had to keep an LCD around just for coding

2026-07-05 07:00:21

I love OLED. Well, more specifically, I love QD-OLED, but that's not always an option on laptops and other screens. The gaming side of my desk has a 34-inch QD-OLED ultrawide, and it's the best panel technology I've played on. Perfect blacks, instant response, high refresh rates, and HDR highlights that make my favorite games pop. It's also the wrong screen for my terminal to live on, and I found that out the hard way.

I use my local LLM to triage my email every morning, but I'll still never let it send replies

2026-07-05 06:00:22

Reading my email hasn't been a habit I've had for years now. The only times I do end up opening it is on the rare chance of an email-based OTP, or if I'm simply mailing things to myself between devices. Outside of that, I've had zero willingness to actually sift through tens of unread emails every single day. Suffice to say, going through my mail wasn't something I thought would suddenly become a part of my day that I would actively begin looking forward to.
