OBS Studio 25.0 is Here With Vulkan-based Games Capture Feature and More
======
_**Brief: Open source screen recording and streaming software OBS Studio 25.0 has just been released and it brings the ability to capture Vulkan-based games with game capture among other new features.**_
![][1]
If you are into recording your desktop or streaming it, you might have heard of [OBS][2] (Open Broadcaster Software) Studio. It’s one of the [best screen recorder tools on Linux][3] and other operating systems.
But OBS is more than just a simple screen recorder. It also provides all the stuff you need for streaming your recordings.
### New features in OBS Studio 25.0
![OBS 25.0][4]
OBS Studio has released it’s latest version 25.0 with plenty of new features to make your recording and streaming experience better. Let’s take a look at some of the main new features:
* Capture Vulkan-based games with game capture
* New capture method to window capture which allows capturing browsers, browser-based windows, and UWP programs
* Advanced scene collection importing allows you to import from other common streaming programs
* Media source hotkeys to allow control of playback
* Ability to drag and drop URLs to create browser sources
* Support for the [SRT protocol][5]
* Ability to lock volume values of audio sources in the mixer
* Support for certain devices that can automatically rotate their camera output such as the Logitech StreamCam
* System tray icon to show when the recording is paused
* Help icons when an property has a tooltip associated with it
Apart from there, there are plenty of bug features and minor changes that you may follow in the [release notes][6].
### Install OBS Studio 25.0 on Linux
OBS Studio is a cross-platform software and is also available for Windows and macOS in addition to Linux. You can download it from its official website.
[Download OBS Studio 25.0][7]
For Linux, you can grab the source code and build it your self. I know that’s not very convenient for everyone. The good news is that you can install the latest OBS version using Snap or Flatpak packages.
On Ubuntu or any other [Linux distribution with Snap support][8], you can use the following command:
```
sudo snap install obs-studio
```
If your distribution supports Fltapak packages, you can get it from Flathub website:
[OBS Studio on Flathub][9]
For Ubuntu users, there is also the official PPA for easily installing it. In a terminal, you can enter the following command one by one:
```
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:obsproject/obs-studio
sudo apt update
sudo apt install obs-studio
```
You can [learn about deleting PPA here][10].
Personally, I haven’t used OBS much though I have heard great stuff about it. I don’t live stream but I do record my desktop to create tutorial and information Linux videos on I[t’s FOSS YouTube channel][11] (you should subscribe to it if you haven’t already). For that, I [use Kazam][12] which I find simpler to use.
Do you use OBS Studio? Which features you like the most? Do share your views.

Linus Torvalds’ Advice on Working From Home during Coronavirus Lockdown
======
While many of us are self-isolating indoors amidst the coronavirus outbreak. [ZDNet][1] had a special feature discussion with Linus Torvalds on his opinions or thoughts on working from home during the Coronavirus lockdown.
If you didn’t know already (how could you not?), [Linus Torvalds][2] is the creator of Linux and [Git][3] as well. And, he did all that while working from home. Here’s a video from 2016 where Torvalds shows his home office:
So, in this article, I’m going to share some of my key takeaways along with his responses from [Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols][4]‘ interaction with Linus Torvalds for ZDNet.
### Discard the fear of missing human interaction
Torvalds mentioned that when he first started working from home years ago, he was worried about missing human interaction that included going to the office, interacting with people, or simply going out for lunch.
Interestingly, he did not seem to miss any of that anymore- he preferred his time at home without human interaction.
Of course, isolating yourself from human interacting isn’t the best thing – but it looks like that is a good thing for now.
### Take advantage of working from home
![][5]
Just like we at It’s FOSS operate completely remote, you can do a lot of stuff without actually being at an office.
Not to forget – you can pet your cat as much as you want and I have 6 of them, I know it’s difficult (*giggles*).
And, as Linus Torvalds mentioned, the real advantage of remote work is “flexibility”. You do not necessarily need to sit in front of your desk working from 9-5 or more. Technically, you are free to take breaks in between and do whatever you wish at home.
In other words, _**Linus suggests avoiding re-creating an office at your home**_ – which is worse than going to an office.
### Efficient communication is the key
![][6]
You can choose to have several meetings (video conferences or audio calls) in a day – but is it really necessary?
For some, it might be a big deal – but you should try to minimize the time spent on a meeting by clearing things up in brief.
Or, as Linus recommends, it’s best to have email lists to keep things on point and that’s how [Linux kernel][7] runs.
**James Bottomley**, Distinguished Engineer at [IBM Research][8], and a senior Linux kernel developer, also adds a suggestion that you should re-read your text to make sure that you’re sending precise information that no one will potentially skim through.
Personally, I prefer texts over voice for the very same reason. It saves you time, fact.
But, keep in mind, that you need to convey only the necessary information in a proper manner without overloading the information that you send via texts/email.
### Track your time
Flexibility doesn’t necessarily mean that you can work less and lurk on social media platforms, unless that’s your job.
So, you need to make sure that you are making the most out of your time. To do that, you can use several tools to track your time on what you use and the duration of it on your computer.
You can even write it down on a sticky note to make sure you reach your goal of spending the allocated time for work efficiently. You can opt to utilize [RescueTime][9] or [ActivityWatch][10] to track the time you spend on your computer or smartphone.
### Play with your cat (pets)
![][11]
Not to discriminate against other pets, but that’s what Linus Torvalds mentioned.
Just because you are at your home – you have a lot to do while you schedule your work or try to efficiently utilize the time.
Linus insists that whenever you’re bored, you can head out to get essentials if necessary or simply play with the cat (or your pet).
### Wrapping Up
While Linus Torvalds also mentioned that no one will be judging you when you’re at home, his suggestions seem to be on point and could be very useful for people who struggle with working from home.
Not just for the coronavirus outbreak – but if you are planning to work from home permanently, you should keep these things in mind.
What do you think about Linus Torvalds thoughts here? Do you agree with him?

Meet DebianDog – Puppy sized Debian Linux
======
Recently I stumbled upon an intriguing Linux project. This project aims to create small live CDs for Debian and Debian-based systems, similar to the [Puppy Linux project][1]. Let’s take a look at DebianDog.
### What is DebianDog?
As it says on the tin, [DebianDog][2] “is a small Debian Live CD shaped to look like Puppy and act like Puppy. Debian structure and Debian behaviour are untouched and Debian documentation is 100% valid for DebianDog. You have access to all Debian repositories using apt-get or synaptic.”
![DebianDog Jessie][3]
For those of you who are not familiar with [Puppy Linux][1], the project is “a collection of multiple Linux distributions, built on the same shared principles”. Those principles are to be fast, small (300 MB or less), and easy to use. There are versions of Puppy Linux built to support Ubuntu, Slackware, and Raspbian packages.
The major difference between DebianDog and Puppy Linux is that Puppy Linux has its own package manager [the [Puppy Package Manager][4]]. As stated above, DebianDog using the Debian package manager and packages. Even the DebianDog website tries to make that clear: “It is not Puppy Linux and it has nothing to do with Puppy based on Debian.”
### Why should anyone use DebianDog?
The main reason to install DebianDog (or any of its derivatives) would be to restore an older system to operability. Every entry on DebianDog has a 32-bit option. They also have lighter desktop environments/window managers, such as [Openbox][5] or the [Trinity Desktop][6] environment. Most of those also have an alternative to systemd. They also come with lighter applications installed, such as [PCManFM][7].
### What versions of DebianDog are available?
Though DebianDog was the first in the series, the project is called ‘Dog Linux’ and provides various ‘Dog variants’ on popular distributions based on Debian and Ubuntu.
#### DebianDog Jessie
The first (and original) version of DebianDog is DebianDog Jessie. There are two [32-bit versions][8] of it. One uses [Joe’s Window Manager (JWM)][9] as default and the other uses XFCE. Both systemd and sysvinit are available. There is also a [64-bit version][10]. DebianDog Jessie is based on Debian 8.0 (codename Jessie). Support for Debian 8.0 ends on June 30th, 2020, so install with caution.
![TrinityDog][11]
#### StretchDog
[Stret][12][c][12][hDog][12] is based on Debian 9.0 (codename Stretch). It is available in 32 and 64-bit. Openbox is the default window manager, but we can also switch to JWM. Support for Debian 9.0 ends on June 30th, 2022.
#### BusterDog
[BusterDog][13] is interesting. It is based on [Debian 10][14] (codename Buster). It does not use systemd, instead, it uses [elogind][15] just like [AntiX][16]. Support for Debian 10.0 ends on June 2024.
#### MintPup
[MintPup][17] is based on [Linux Mint][18] 17.1. This LiveCD is 32-bit only. You can also access all of the “Ubuntu/Mint repositories using apt-get or synaptic”. Considering that Mint 17 has reached end of life, this version must be avoided.
#### XenialDog
There are both [32-bit][19] and [64-bit versions][20] of this spin based on the Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Both versions come with Openbox as default with JWM as an option. Support for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS ends in April of 2021, so install with caution.
#### TrinityDog
There are two versions of the [TrintyDog][21] spin. One is based on Debian 8 and the other is based on Debian 9. Both are 32-bit and both use the [Trinity Desktop Environment][6], thus the name.
![BionicDog][22]
#### BionicDog
As you should be able to guess by the name. [BionicDog][23] is based on [Ubuntu 18.04 LTS][24]. The main version of this spin has both 32 and 64-bit with Openbox as the default window manager. There is also a version that uses the [Cinnamon desktop][25] and is only 64-bit.
### Final Thoughts
I like any [Linux project that wants to make older systems usable][26]. However, most of the operating systems available through DebianDog are no longer supported or nearing the end of their life span. This makes it less than useful for the long run.
**I wouldn’t really advise to use it on your main computer.** Try it in live USB or on a spare system. Also, [you can create][27] your own LiveCD spin if you want to take advantage of a newer base system.
Somehow I keep on stumbling across obscure Linux distributions like [FatDog64][28], [4M Linux][29] and [Vipper Linux][30]. Even though I may not always recommend them to use, it’s still good to know about the existence of such projects.
What are your thoughts on the DebianDog? What is your favorite Puppy-syle OS? Please let us know in the comments below.
If you found this article interesting, please take a minute to share it on social media, Hacker News or [Reddit][31].

Purism Librem Mini: A Privacy-First Linux-Based Mini PC
======
_**Brief: Purism launched a mini PC, “Librem Mini” tailored to provide privacy and security while offering a small form-factor. Here, we talk about the details.**_
[Purism][1] is usually known for services or products that focus on enhancing the digital privacy and security of the user.
Purism flaunts itself as “[Social Purpose Company][2]” aiming to do good for society and they have several services and products to offer in this regard.
While you might be aware of its Librem series of [Linux laptops][3], [Librem One][4] (encrypted services), [PureOS Linux][5], and the [Librem 5 Linux smartphone][6]. Now, they have come up with a small-factor mini PC targeted at the users who want to take control of their privacy and security.
### Librem Mini: Purism’s Mini PC
![Librem Mini PC][7]
[Purism][1]‘s [Librem Mini][8] is intended to be a small, light, and powerful mini computer.
Of course, there are a bunch of [Linux-based mini PCs][9] out there – but Librem Mini specifically focuses on the privacy and security of its users. It comes included with [PureOS][5], [Pureboot][10], and [Librem Key][11] support.
The base configuration will be **available for $699**. Which is expensive than most other mini PCs. But unlike most others, Librem Mini is not a re-branding of [Intel NUC][12]. So, what does it offers then?
### Specifications of Librem Mini
![][13]
Here’s the spec sheet:
* Intel Core i7-8565U (Whiskey Lake), Active (fan) Cooling
4 Cores, 8 Threads, up to 4.6GHz
* Intel UHD Graphics 620
* RAM: Upto 64 GB DDR4 2400 MHz (2 SO-DIMM Slots)
* 1 SATA III 6GB/s SSD/HDD (7mm)
* 1 M.2 SSD (SATA III/NVMe x4)
* 1 HDMI 2.0 4K @ 60Hz
* 1 DisplayPort 1.2 4K @ 60Hz
* 4 x USB 3.0
* 2 x USB 2.0
* 1 x Type-C 3.1
* 3.5mm audio jack (Mic-in & headphone out combo)
* 1 RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet LAN
* WiFi 802.11n (2.4/5.0 GHz) via Atheros ATH9k module (optional)
* Bluetooth 4.0 included in WiFi module (optional)
* Weight: 1 kg (2.2 lbs)
* Dimensions: 12.8cm (5.0 inches) x 12.8cm (5.0 inches) x 3.8cm (1.5 inches)
I don’t know why they decided for going with Intel’s 8th gen processor considering that 10th gen processor is already in the market. Perhaps because Whiskey Lake is also the latest refresh on the 8th gen processor.
But, yes, just because they have disabled and neutralized Intel’s Management Engine on it – it could be still a viable option to go with.
In addition to that, you should also keep in mind that this mini PC features the ability to detect hardware and software tampering while providing full disk encryption.
And, of course, Linux powers it up.
### Pricing and Availability
![Librem Mini from the back][14]
The base configuration with **8 Gigs of RAM** and a **256 GB SSD** will cost you **$699**. And, if you want the most powerful configuration available, it will cost you about **$3000** easily.
They have a pre-order goal of **$50,000** and they plan to start shipping the units **a month** after reaching the pre-order goal.
So, if you’re going to pre-order now, you should not expect the shipping to start anytime soon. Hence, I recommend you to keep an eye on the pre-order goal on their [Librem Mini product page][8].

**Wrapping Up**
If you’re looking for a mini PC (not specifically tailored for privacy and security), you can have a look at our list of [best Linux based mini PCs][9] to get more ideas.
Librem Mini is definitely going to sound expensive for an average consumer. It is still a decent choice for privacy enthusiasts.
