Sony's Digital Trap, SteamOS 3.8 Goes Mainstream & Linux is Punk Rock | Destination Linux 474 https://podcast.destinationlinux.org/474 0f815e66-e546-48f9-ba1b-554c2cc8434b Mon, 13 Jul 2026 06:00:00 -0400 Deviant Airwaves full Deviant Airwaves Sony is killing physical media AND deleting movies you already paid for - so what does "ownership" even mean anymore? We dig into that, plus SteamOS 3.8 officially opens Linux gaming to everyone, ClamAV stays relevant, KDE fixes multi-monitor headaches, and community member Isaac reminds us why Linux is the most punk rock OS on the planet. 1:04:04 no <p>Linux is Punk Rock! This week, listener Isaac proves it. He's recording local bands at a friend's record shop using a near $0 Linux setup: a thrifted mixer, a 2008 M-Audio interface that Windows 11 abandoned, Ardour, Audacity, OBS, and Kdenlive. That's open source closing the digital divide, and it's the most punk thing we've heard all year.</p> <p>Then we tackle the big story everyone's talking about: Sony is going full digital-only, no more physical game discs. But the scarier headline is that Sony has already started removing movies people <em>purchased</em> from their libraries with no refund and no warning. Ryan breaks down what this means for digital ownership, why DRM is a trap, and why platforms like GOG and Itch.io are the real answer.</p> <p>Jill brings the good news: SteamOS 3.8 is now officially available for installation on standard home PCs with AMD GPUs. With 132 million monthly Steam users, this might be the biggest mainstream moment Linux gaming has ever had. The year of the Linux desktop might just be the year SteamOS goes everywhere.</p> <p>Zeb covers ClamAV 1.5.3 and why it still matters (and when it doesn't), KDE Plasma 6.8's long-overdue multi-monitor improvements, and why that headline claiming Windows dropped below 60% market share deserves a serious side-eye.</p> <p><strong>Sponsored by Sandfly</strong> 100% agentless Linux security.
