We all have data to rescue, you just don't realize it yet. This week we build our own custom live rescue distros, recover real data, and show you how to make your own.

Is it time to replace GitHub in our workflow? We git into it. Plus, our favorite features in the new Linux 7.0 release.

The expensive, challenging, and humbling journey with open source agents.

Ubuntu wants a leaner, stricter GRUB, and your favorite setup may not survive the cut. We break down what’s really changing, and the practical ways to adapt. Plus, Chris moves on from one of his favorite open source apps.

We were minutes away from shutting down our Matrix server when the Discord news hit. Now we're not just keeping it, we're doubling down. Can open source seize this moment?

The news this week highlights shifts in Linux from multiple angles. What's evolving, why it matters, and that moment where the future actually works.

We stress tested open source AI agents this week. What actually held up, and where it falls apart. Plus Brent's $20 Wi-Fi upgrade.

When your self-hosted services become infrastructure, breakage matters. We tackle monitoring that actually helps, alerts you won't ignore, and DNS for local, and multi-mesh network setups.

We rebuild a small office network around Linux, with an Unplugged twist and real-world constraints. Things don't go quite as expected...

The storage apocalypse has arrived. An old friend drops by to talk survival strategies as prices explode, and we pitch our own unapologetically 90s approach to stretching storage.

We unleash a networking monitoring tool to spot new devices, track changes in real time, and fire alerts straight into Home Assistant, MQTT, and your phone.

We make our big Linux predictions for 2026, but first, we score how we did for 2025.
