- [Trend Micro Uncovers Another Xorg Vulnerability](https://www.phoronix.com/news/X.Org-Server-CVE-2023-1393)
	- Stop using Xorg as root [Gentoo](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Non_root_Xorg) (Arch)[Relevant ArchWiki Link](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/xorg#Rootless_Xorg)
	- Also this [was fixed](https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=26ef545b3502f61ca722a7a3373507e88ef64110) ArchLinux has already shipped the fix, XeroLinux is safe.
- [Chrome will add AV1/VP9 codec support for WebRTC](https://groups.google.com/g/discuss-webrtc/c/-QQ3pxrl-fw?pli=1)
	- Should be in cef within a few weeks, enabling it's use in electron. Which means if discord ever actually used a supported version of electron discord could use my favorite FOSS codecs dammit.
