Steam Machines are expensive! But maybe not too expensive? The Academy Software Foundation, yes like the Academy Awards, has a Wayland Working Group. Akrites is the new game in town for Open Source vulnerability response, and Pine64 is teasing an Open Smart Speaker. The Linux kernel has some big performance wins, and at least one platform with a mixed bag after updates. Then KDE And COSMIC have interesting updates. For tips, we have Herald for TUI email goodness, ss for modern socket statistics, and relayd for network traffic redirection. You can find the show notes at https://bit.ly/4oOWto6 and enjoy!

We've had endless conversations about aliens and first contact--but what if a conversation with other intelligences is beyond our scope? Dr. Daniel Whiteson, particle physicist at CERN's Large Hadron Collider and professor at UC Irvine, joins us to explore less conventional thoughts on first contact. We look at the challenges of communicating with extraterrestrial intelligences, potential difficulties of communicating via non-terrestrial mathematics and physics, and the possibility that extraterrestrials might actually be terrestrial... but existing as denizens of the dark energy universe. One might be sitting in your lap right now! Join us for the far-ranging discussion.

Jennifer Pattison Tuohy of The Verge joins Tech News Weekly with Mikah Sargent! Matter 1.6 is unveiled. A federal probe has been opened into Tesla. Snap and Meta are making major moves in smart glasses this week. And is the rising cost of tech becoming too much?

Jennifer talks about Matter 1.6 and some of the new features that come with the newest version of the technical standard for smart home devices.

Mikah shares how another federal probe has been opened into Tesla, this time a Model 3 vehicle that slammed into a Texas home and killed a 76-year-old in the house.

Scott Stein joins the show to talk about Snap and Meta's newest smart glasses.

And both Mikah and Scott talk about the increasing cost of tech as Steam's new Steam Machine is given a starting price point of $1,049, and Apple just announced a price hike across its Mac, iPad, and home devices.
