Someone compromised the University of Pennsylvania and sent out a very silly message to students, faculty, and alumni.

I can't tell if they're actually politically motivated or trying to rustle jimmies.

Fedora released Rawhide Pre-release KDE ISO on their website, accidentally...

I was installing Fedora 43 earlier just because I like it but, I was literally figuring out on how to fix the installer, they even named the top-right as "Fedora 43," but then it gave me a weird error and I still tried to boot it.
