#ubuntu #security Canonical seems to be having epic struggles to release kernels with fixes for CVE-2026-98432, TCP remote 9.8 level kernel flaw. So far they only managed to fix it (at least purportedly) in the kernel for Ubuntu version 26.10. Their progress page lists kernel versions that were supposed to fix it, but were already totally confusingly released without this fix on closer inspection. Customers don't hear a word on it. It seems likely they are overwhelmed.

Selfhosting as a Linux newbie - Ubuntu Server LTS or Debian 13? I use Debian as my daily driver, but I’m still a newbie. I would like to selfhost a few apps, initially on a VPS, but I will probably move to a local PC once I diagnose what is broken with my old computer. The guides at https://selfhosting.sh/ always recommend Ubuntu Server LTS for newbies, but Ubuntu seems to have bad PR and I already run Debian on my home PC. On one hand, I am a newbie and I guess Ubuntu might be easier to set up and maintain. Though, I don’t HOW exactly? On the other hand, if I have Debian on my home PC and on my server, they are the same system, so I’d be learning the same system at two places and with two usage scenarios. But it might be easier to make mistakes on Debian..? What is your opinion/recommendation? EDIT: thank you everyone! My gut feeling was Debian and your responses were overwhelmingly in favor of Debian, so Debian it is :)

Mal ein IT-Happyend in drei Akten: Mein geschätztes Macbook Air aus 2017 flog schon vor Jahren aus dem Support. OCLP schuf ein Problem mit manchen Webseiten, das mich nervte. Daher

1. Umstieg auf Ubuntu. Leider jetzt ein labiles WLAN. Als es im Laufe der Zeit immer schlimmer wurde (ich es vielleicht auch verschlimmbesserte)
2. zurück zu MacOS. Dann halt mit aktuellen Anwendungen das inaktuelle BS ertragen. Nach einem Monat stellt dann eine mir wichtige Anwendung den Support ein. ...

"OpenShot video editor is now available as a snap" "An official snap package of the Qt-based editing tool went live today (22 September). The OpenShot video editor is now available on the Canonical Snap Store." https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2026/09/openshot-video-editor-snap #Ubuntu

OpenShot is now available as a snap – officially, too. The Qt-based video editor is already available via a PPA with Deb builds, AppImage and an (unverified, outdated) Flathub listing for Linux. https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2026/09/openshot-video-editor-snap?v2 #openSource #linux #ubuntu

Last week's IncusOS post listed Proxmox, XCP-ng and ESXi and skipped the hypervisor we have run and installed since 2007: KVM, in the Linux kernel since 2.6.20, on Ubuntu. Proxmox and Incus both run their VMs on it, so the choice is a management layer. New post: why Ubuntu plus KVM is our default, why we skip libvirt and talk to QEMU directly, and eVirt, our YAML-per-machine framework. https://blog.eracks.com/2026/09/kvm-on-ubuntu-since-2007/ #KVM #Ubuntu #Linux #SelfHosted

I realized on Tuesday that it’s been slightly over a year since I gave up Windows on my daily driver PC which I sit at for 8-12 hours a day. Sure doesn’t seem like it’s been over a year. I’d really like to say I’m a lot smarter in the year of being a Linux and FOSS evangelist but I don’t think I am. I have learned a little bit, though 🤷🏻‍♂️ You don’t want to read this, but AI chat have helped a lot w/ my dumb newbie questions. Open LLMs if that’s any consolation 🤷🏻‍♂️ #FOSS #Linux #Debian #Ubuntu #LinuxMint #AIshit #MicroSlop
