JPEG-XL meets Ubuntu 25.04!

Ubuntu 25.04 now supports JPEG-XL after Ubuntu 24.04 LTS refused to support this image format. It was supposed to land to the Ubuntu 24.04 LTS version, but there were setbacks that led to Ubuntu not adding support for this image format, but, today, this version of Ubuntu supports this image format.

The JPEG-XL image format support has earned an exception from the feature freeze set to stabilize the final release. Your Ubuntu installation now supports JPEG-XL natively to enable high quality images in smaller sizes, because of the much better compression algorithm than other competitors, such as AVIF and WebP.

Before, you had to install the jpeg-xl package manually if you wanted to get support for the same image format in systems older than Ubuntu 25.04. Now, you don’t need to do this automatically.

The Desktop Team Integration Squad update thread has been updated to include a post summarizing how the JPEG-XL support was added after both the MIR and the Release teams had approved this support.

Ubuntu 25.04 Plucky Puffin is set to release on April 17th, unless delays occur.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for making this Library in Dol Dol Kenya possible. And for helping us help protect the village from the thirsty elephants. It has been a busy trip.

When will you get the One UI 7 update?

Samsung has just started their phased rollout of the One UI 7 update starting from all Galaxy S24, Z Fold/Flip 6, and Z Fold Special Edition devices in Korea. This was right after the Beta programs for this location have already been closed as seen in the following recruitment posts:

• [Beta End] Recruiting Participants for Galaxy S24 Series One UI 7 Beta Program
• [Beta End] Galaxy Z Fold6 One UI 7 Beta Program Participant Recruitment
• [Beta End] Recruiting Participants for Galaxy Z Flip6 One UI 7 Beta Program

People in regions other than Korea were anticipating the One UI 7 update being released to their flagship devices, while the rollout didn’t start in those regions yet. Before the One UI 7 release date, people had speculated that Korea and other regions would be getting the update on April 7th.

In Canada, Telus has published a list of Galaxy flagships devices that will be updated to One UI 7 in approximately April 11th. At the beginning of the page, this carrier warned that those dates were approximate and that they could change.

In the US, the beta program for those three flagships didn’t end yet, and the local One UI Beta Team has notified users that there is “no official schedule has been confirmed by Samsung at this time” for the US or other regions. Additionally, the team has confirmed that “any date being circulated online (including April 10th) is still considered speculative at this time,” but they notified users that the initial rollout is expected to begin locally starting April 10th.

The initial rollout started in Korea, because Samsung in some cases initiate the rollout there as part of the phased rollout, which began in April 7th. This is for Samsung to gather early feedback from users who get to try out the stable version in case there are unexpected bugs that might prevent the rollout from completing globally. As feedback is analyzed, the stable version of One UI 7 will be available in regions other than Korea soon.

If you’re waiting for One UI 7, be patient as Samsung is working hard to ensure that there are no problems during the phased rollout. You’ll be notified about the update schedule in your area via Samsung Members. To check for updates, follow these steps:

1. Open the Settings app
2. Navigate to Software update
3. Tap on Download and Install
4. You should be able to see the update information. Verify the version with your device model posted above.
5. Click on Download, let it download, and click on Install. Make sure that you download the update through Wi-Fi.

This update could take more than 15 minutes to install, depending on the device. Make sure that you have the phone charged fully before initiating the update process to avoid interruptions. Back up your data to your PC, the cloud, or any other device in case the update went wrong. Don’t interrupt the update process, or you’ll experience problems later.

Back to the office after a week of break for #Eid.

Im Oktober des letzten Jahres ist #AppleIntelligence in den #USA an den Start gegangen, und nach kurzer Wartezeit ist #Apple Intelligence mit iOS 18.4 auch auf deutschen iPhones gelandet. Das #Update auf #iOS 18.4 steht seit wenigen Tagen zum #Download bereit - und wir stellen uns die Frage: Welche #KI-Funktionen nutzt ihr aktiv? Wie gefällt euch die neue Siri-Animation? Nutzt ihr die Schreibwerkzeuge?

Das und mehr waren unsere Themen der Woche: https://www.appgefahren.de/highlights-der-woche-apple-intelligence-ist-da-wie-nutzt-ihr-den-ki-dienst-376848.html

Llama4 is out, and to sum things up, the models are huge, not super good, and you won't be able to run them locally: https://ai.meta.com/blog/llama-4-multimodal-intelligence/
