This week's Linux and FOSS news:

LINUX NEWS

Vendefoul Wolf Linux (Devuan-based) rejects age verification:
https://xcancel.com/vendefoulwolf/status/2035441292520386852#m
(Never heard of this distro before, but it's always good to have some more options to go to, especially distros which reject most of the mainstream stuff which are more prone to age verification and other forms of corruption.)

Qubes will do whatever upstream Fedora does (so likely comply):
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/10744#issuecomment-3997244349

CachyOS also refuses compliance:
https://discuss.cachyos.org/t/age-verification-systemd/26316

Garuda Linux plans to "comply" in the least invasive way possible, only with some checkboxes:
https://forum.garudalinux.org/t/a-statement-on-age-verification-the-state-of-the-community-discourse/47652

Parrot will only comply if legally forced to, it's implementation will be easy to bypass:
https://parrotsec.org/blog/2026-04-02-our-statement-about-age-verification/
(I wonder what they mean under being forced. When they receive an email from the authorities, or what? 🤔)

OpenMandriva won't implement age verification, but won't remove it from Systemd, stating it can be useful for other things:
https://forum.openmandriva.org/t/systemd-adds-age-verification-are-you-serious/8793/75?u=xseagdc
(The comment right below describes pretty well, what the problem is with this...)

CuerdOS (Debian-based distro) rejects age verification:

HyraxOS (Linux Mint-based distro) also refuses age verification:

Fluff Linux (Arch-based) also says no:

And Athena OS (Arch and NixOS-based ethical hacking distro) too:

Freeport project aims to strip Linux packages from age verification:

Big question

Has anyone here gotten an nvidia single gpu passthrough setup working in QubesOS?

#qubes #qubesos #linux #security #virtualization #vms

Seitdem mein #Qubes wieder lauffähig ist, habe ich mein Artix (💙) kein einziges Mal mehr gebootet... Ich liebe dieses Betriebssystem so fucking sehr, ohne war ich nichts

Ich liebe diesen Mann

Thinking about going over to #Qubes #QubesOS again given the way the worlds going.

Anyone using it as a daily driver? Any pitfalls?
