There is a first time to everything. The first time you used Linux, the first time you visited It's FOSS ;)
Why am I talking about first times? Because for the first time, I made a video with my 'face' in it. I (still) am a camera shy person and I avoided doing this for years.
So, here's a video where I show how easy it is to install Arch Linux these days. And yes, I know I have to lose weight or the double chin at least :P
💬 Let's see what you get in this edition of FOSS Weekly:
- Some news regarding support for older desktop widgets on Plasma 6.
- A look at the different kernels Arch Linux offers.
- A new Linux kernel release.
- And other Linux news, videos, Puzzles and, of course, memes!
📰 Linux news

📹 What we are watching
I just cannot get over the computing development from the 60s and 70s. Here's a demo of real time text editing with collaboration. That was back in 1968.
Correctly called 'the mother of all demos', this is a treat to watch for every tech enthusiast.
✨ Application highlights
Moosync is a nice cross-platform music player that has some really good features.

💡 Quick handy tip
In the GNOME Terminal, if you are scrolling up and find yourself stuck after some point and cannot scroll up beyond that.
Go to Preferences > Profile. From there, click on the profile you are using, then go to the “Scrolling” section and change the “Limit scrollback to:” value to whatever you like.
In my Ubuntu setup, it is set to 10000 by default. Careful not to go beyond this, and also try to avoid setting unlimited scrolling. (This scrolling data is saved on RAM)
It is also available in Konsole, KDE's Terminal.

Be careful, young padawan, enemies lurk everywhere.
