In this episode of Destination Linux, we explore everything from nostalgic tech making a comeback to cutting-edge security threats. Join us as we dive into the revival of the Pebble smartwatch, Google’s latest Pixel devices and policies, Linux turning 34 with a surprising floppy disk update, and a deep dive into North Korean rootkit tactics with Sandfly Security’s Craig Rowland. Plus, we’ve got community feedback, a handy software pick, and plenty of laughs along the way.
