Last night I saw my 10 yrs old son start up his #Debian11 laptop, see that #gnome #software tells him updates are available and then just clicks to install them. After that he opened #firefox, navigated to his school webpage and started doing his #homework.

Happy as a #geek and #father, when your kid shows #debian with #gnome is understandable and productively usable by kids. So do not tell them they need some closed source and expensive monster of a operating system.

Embracer Group just closed yet another Studio.

This one is Pieces Interactive, and they just made the Alone in the Dark re-boot which was released three months ago. And that game was actually well reviewed. But apparently, the game didn’t do enough to keep Embracer happy, so bye-bye studio.

FOSS mobile OS PostmarketOS has been updated to version 24.06. This update brings newer versions of Plasma, Phosh, SXMO, and Gnome, adds the ability for for initramfs to export logs on boot failure, removed hardcoded dependency on PulseAudio in UI packages, updates to kernels and more.

PostmarketOS is based off of Alpine, uses BusyBox for the init system and ext4 for the file system.
