Transform your Linux Mint file manager into a productivity powerhouse with these 10 must-have Nemo Actions. In this video, I walk you through the best right-click upgrades for Nemo — from converting image formats and merging PDFs to sending files to your phone wirelessly with Warpinator, all without leaving your file manager.

Whether you’re a Linux Mint beginner or a seasoned daily driver, these Nemo Actions will completely change how you work with files on Linux Mint Cinnamon.

– PDF Merger — combine multiple PDFs locally in seconds
– Verify Checksum — verify SHA256, SHA512, or MD5 hashes right from Nemo
– Backup File — one-click safety net before editing any config or script

All these actions are available in the Nemo Actions app built into Linux Mint. No third-party software, no sketchy online tools — everything runs locally on your machine.

Equipment too expensive? Build your own.

Don’t know how?

We’ve already published the schematics, guides and everything else you’d need to build many of the 50 machines needed to build civilisation.

Now we are using the same open source philosophy that helped us build these machines to construct houses in 5 days.

We hope to solve the housing crisis and train people across the world how to build these homes for themselves or for others!

Why Toronto is the Global Hub for Financial AI

Why Toronto is the Global Hub for Financial AI

Video by FINOS via YouTube
Why Toronto is the Global Hub for Financial AI

Mark Paulsen (Technical Project Manager at FINOS) explores Toronto’s legacy as the birthplace of deep learning and its impact on modern financial AI. He discusses why financial institutions must "default to open" and collaborate on the core technologies—open science and open source—that define the industry’s future.

🇬🇧 Join us in London! Catch the latest on Financial AI at OSFF London on June 25, 2026: https://hubs.ly/Q041YV9Z0 (Use Code: 26YTOSFFLN20C)

2:15 An Auditor’s Perspective: AI Sanity Checks
2:55 Three Calls to Action for 2026
3:05 Call 1: Remember Your Legacy
3:20 Call 2: Default to Open
3:35 Call 3: Collaborate on the Core

📊 The Problem: The Direction of "Black Box" AI As AI becomes ubiquitous, there is a risk of losing track of where these technologies originated. For financial institutions, adopting AI without understanding its "open science" roots leads to a lack of transparency and a dependency on proprietary systems that are difficult to audit or verify.

🏗️ The Solution: The Toronto-Open Source Connection
Mark argues that the industry must reclaim its role as a steward of innovation by following the "Open Science" model that started in Toronto:
* Respect the Legacy: Acknowledge that the foundations of modern AI (Deep Learning) were built in Toronto’s classrooms and labs and shared via open science.
* Default to Open: Shift the institutional mindset to prioritize open source as the primary way to solve shared industry challenges.
* Collaborate on the Core: Following industry leaders, banks should mutualize the "core" of their technology stack to accelerate the rollout of responsible AI.

The takeaway: You are in the right place at the right time. Mark Paulsen proves that by defaulting to open and collaborating on the core, Toronto’s financial community can lead the next wave of AI innovation.
