Fedora 24 released!

The Fedora 24 Workstation release features GNOME 3.20, with many usability improvements such as easier input device and printer settings, a better search interface, shortcut windows for keyboard commands, and more convenient music controls.

Flatpak (formerly xdg-app) is another building-block feature, with Software able to track installed Flatpaks and adding more features in the future as the technology develops. The Software app has also grown features to provide a full system upgrade directly from the desktop from one Fedora release to the next, and the ability to provide labeling as well as reviews of available software.

Fedora 24 continues our work on the X replacement, Wayland, a next-generation graphics stack. Although this release will not default to Wayland, it includes many improvements and is available as an option for users to try out, and potentially will be the default stack in Fedora 25.

Upgrading Fedora 23 Workstation to Fedora 24

Before you do anything, you will want to make sure you have the latest software for Fedora 23 before beginning the upgrade process. Additionally, make sure you back up your system before proceeding. One popular tool available in Fedora for this purpose is deja-dup. To update your software, use GNOME Software or enter the following command in a terminal.

Mycroft Core, v0.7 – Responsive Listening, 3rd Party Skills

Today marks the release of a new version of Mycroft. This moves us from the 0.6.X versioning to 0.7 – putting us closer to a 1.0 release. This is a significant update because it contains a large rethinking of the listener that Mycroft uses. The result is our new “Responsive Listening” mode.

Hiya Chris (and Matt and Allan and Chase and Michael – I religiously watch LAS, Coder Radio, TechSNAP and Unfilter). First of all, screw you for providing so many excellent shows. You force me to put aside a lot of my time to listen to these shows, and I have not been able to stop following any of the shows.
Anyway, I have been using linux since 2009, and I will be a computer science (and journalism) at college next year. I currently triple boot ubuntu 12.04, crunchbang (waldorf) and Windows 7 (for gaming). I\’ve used pretty much every distro under the sun… Except for Gentoo.

I would like to challenge you to do a show on Gentoo; how to install and configure it. Keep up the great shows

Hey Chris and Angela,
May I suggest a topic for a future FAUXshow? How about vitamins and diet supplements? It is a huge industry with both people who swear by usage, and others who shun supplements.
