On paper, it's as good as the Mac unified memory, but will it actually live up to the hype on the new Intel chips?</p> <p>Then, we find out Malus is out here copying open source software and adjusting it enough that it becomes... liberated? Described as 'satire,' this tool, at least on its surface, does seem to do exactly what it says on the tin. But why?</p> <p>And finally, we spend a lot of time talking about Ubuntu 26.04's release, and it turns out, some of the highlights are really interesting. Password feedback lets us meander into a much longer security debate about shoulder surfing, why TPM's and encryption are good, actually, the Gnome Resources app, which is surprisingly good, but we forgot to remember about it, and then we try to figure out when the right time to update really is.</p> <h2>📣Announcements📣</h2> <p>This program was made possible by:</p> <ul> <li>📺️<a href="https://youtube.com/linuxuserspace" rel="nofollow">Youtube</a></li> <li>📽️<a href="https://tilvids.com/a/linuxuserspace" rel="nofollow">TILvids</a></li> <li>And by contributions to your L-U-S station by <a href="https://patreon.com/linuxuserspace" rel="nofollow">Patrons</a> like you 😍</li> <li>Go to our <a href="https://links.linuxuserspace.show" rel="nofollow">Links 🔗 Page for more places to find us</a></li> </ul> <h2>LPCAMM2 Memory is gaining traction</h2> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.ifixit.com/News/95078/lpcamm2-memory-is-finally-here" rel="nofollow">LPCAMM2 memory</a></li> <li><a href="https://frame.work/nextgen" rel="nofollow">Nextgen Framework</a></li> <li><a href="https://frame.work/products/laptop13pro-intel-ultra-3/configuration/new" rel="nofollow">Framework 13 configurator</a></li> <li>More of <a href="https://www.theregister.com/2026/04/22/sk_hynix_indiana/" rel="nofollow">this</a> will help the RAM situation</li> </ul> <h2>📣More Announcements📣</h2> <ul> <li>Want to have a topic covered or have some feedback? - send us an email, <a href="mailto:contact@linuxuserspace.show" rel="nofollow">contact@linuxuserspace.show</a> OR jump on over to the <a href="https://lemmy.linuxuserspace.show/c/forum" rel="nofollow">open forum on Lemmy</a></li> <li>Go to our <a href="https://links.linuxuserspace.show" rel="nofollow">Links 🔗 Page for more places to find us</a></li> </ul> <h2>Open Source can be magicked into Closed Source without Violating Copyright (Left)</h2> <ul> <li><a href="https://malus.sh" rel="nofollow">Malus</a></li> <li><a href="http://archive.today/L2nsS" rel="nofollow">archive.today link to 404 Media article</a></li> <li>But shouldn't it be <a href="https://www.congress.gov/crs-product/LSB10922" rel="nofollow">Public Domain?</a></li> </ul> <h2>🧹Housekeeping🧹</h2> <p>Catch these and other great topics as they unfold on our Subreddit or our News channel on Discord.</p> <ul> <li>Go to our <a href="https://links.linuxuserspace.show" rel="nofollow">Links 🔗 Page for more places to find us</a></li> </ul> <h2>Ubuntu 26.04</h2> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2026/04/ubuntu-26-04-lts-changes-since-24-04" rel="nofollow">OMG Ubuntu coverage</a></li> <li><a href="https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/ubuntu-26-04-resolute-raccoon-lts-released/80833" rel="nofollow">Release Announcement</a></li> <li><a href="https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/an-update-on-rust-coreutils/80773" rel="nofollow">Rust Coreutils update</a></li> </ul> <h2>🔭Next Time🔭</h2> <p><strong>We plan to cover your feedback, and some interesting topics.

Episode 6:12: It's All About the Pentiums
<p><strong>Coming up in this episode</strong></p> <ul> <li>The Ends of an Era</li> <li>A Leaky Firefox</li> <li>RAM is Affordable Now?!</li> </ul> <p>0:00 Cold Open<br> 1:36 Ends of an Era<br> 32:30 A Leaky Firefox<br> 48:47 A Slight RAM Reprieve?<br> 1:04:51 Two Notes & Next Time<br> 1:13:30 Stinger</p> <p>Today in User Space we dive into the wonderful world of nostalgia again as we find out that the 486 architecture will soon be dropped from the Linux kernel. Luckily the very first Pentium (with MMX!) is still in-tree, but for how much longer? We also find out that Ubuntu is raising their minimum RAM requirement to 6GB from 4. Honestly, it's about time.</p> <p>Then, some bittersweet news. Leo finally gets to play around with the Firefox built-in VPN, but Dan still hasn't seen it. What we found out, though, is that Firefox will happily leak your real IP address with WebRTC. Does this defeat the purpose?!</p> <p>Lastly, we try to guess what's going to happen next with RAM prices. They seem to have hit their peak, but will they really come tumbling down? At least for Raspberry Pi, that's not the case as price rises across the entire line are happening. The Pi 5 16GB is a jaw dropping $300!</p> <p>We also respond to a couple of comments.</p> <p><a href="https://youtu.be/g41J6B8KsBQ" rel="nofollow">The Video Version</a><br> <a href="https://youtu.be/g41J6B8KsBQ" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/g41J6B8KsBQ</a></p> <h2>📣Announcements📣</h2> <p>This program was made possible by:</p> <ul> <li>📺️<a href="https://youtube.com/linuxuserspace" rel="nofollow">Youtube</a></li> <li>📽️<a href="https://tilvids.com/a/linuxuserspace" rel="nofollow">TILvids</a></li> <li>And by contributions to your L-U-S station by <a href="https://patreon.com/linuxuserspace" rel="nofollow">Patrons</a> like you 😍</li> </ul> <h2>Ends of an Era</h2> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-7.1-Phasing-Out-i486" rel="nofollow">Linux 7.1 Expected To Begin Removing i486 CPU Support</a> <ul> <li><a href="https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2026/04/linux-kernel-maintainers-are-following-through-on-removing-intel-486-support/" rel="nofollow">Ars Technica coverage</a></li> </ul></li> <li><a href="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2026/04/ubuntu-2604-system-requriments" rel="nofollow">Ubuntu raises system requirements</a></li> </ul> <h2>📣More Announcements📣</h2> <ul> <li>Want to have a topic covered or have some feedback? - send us an email, <a href="mailto:contact@linuxuserspace.show" rel="nofollow">contact@linuxuserspace.show</a> OR jump on over to the <a href="https://lemmy.linuxuserspace.show/c/forum" rel="nofollow">open forum on Lemmy</a></li> </ul> <h2>Firefox VPN leaks your IP when using WebRTC</h2> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.security.org/vpn/webrtc-leak/" rel="nofollow">WebRTC leaks explained</a></li> <li><a href="https://mullvad.net/en/check" rel="nofollow">Mullvad VPN Connection Check</a></li> </ul> <h2>🧹Housekeeping🧹</h2> <p>Catch these and other great topics as they unfold on our Subreddit or our News channel on Discord.</p> <ul> <li>🗞️ Linux User Space <a href="https://lemmy.linuxuserspace.show" rel="nofollow">Lemmy</a></li> <li>📰 Linux User Space <a href="https://linuxuserspace.show/reddit" rel="nofollow">subreddit</a></li> <li>⌨️ Linux User Space <a href="https://linuxuserspace.show/discord" rel="nofollow">Discord Server</a></li> <li>📲 Linux User Space <a href="https://linuxuserspace.show/telegram" rel="nofollow">Telegram</a></li> <li>✉️ Linux User Space <a href="https://linuxuserspace.show/matrix" rel="nofollow">Matrix</a></li> <li>📽️ Linux User Space <a href="https://linuxuserspace.show/twitch" rel="nofollow">Twitch</a></li> <li>🐘 Linux User Space <a href="https://linuxuserspace.show/mastodon" rel="nofollow">Mastodon</a></li> <li>📜 Linux User Space <a href="https://linuxuserspace.show/twitter" rel="nofollow">Twitter</a></li> <li>📺️ Linux User Space <a href="https://linuxuserspace.show/tilvids" rel="nofollow">TILVids</a></li> <li>📱 Linux User Space <a href="https://linuxuserspace.show/bluesky" rel="nofollow">Bluesky</a></li> </ul> <h2>Raspberry Pi prices rise... again.</h2> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/a-new-3gb-raspberry-pi-4-for-83-75-and-more-memory-driven-price-increases/" rel="nofollow">Raspberry Pi Blog announcement</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2026/04/raspberry-pi-prices-rise-again-along-with-a-new-3gb-raspberry-pi-4-announced/" rel="nofollow">Gaming On Linux article</a></li> </ul> <h2>🔭Next Time🔭</h2> <p><strong>We plan to cover your feedback, and some interesting topics.
