00:00:11,447 --> 00:00:16,067
Hello, friends, and welcome back to your weekly Linux talk show. My name is Chris.

2
00:00:16,227 --> 00:00:16,867
My name is Wes.

3
00:00:17,107 --> 00:00:17,987
And my name is Brent.

4
00:00:18,507 --> 00:00:22,527
Hey, gentlemen, coming up on the show today, we've been giving KDE Linux a spin,

5
00:00:22,547 --> 00:00:24,887
and we'll give you our first impressions in just a little bit.

6
00:00:25,267 --> 00:00:28,807
Plus, I just made a bunch of big updates to my Hypervibe distro.

7
00:00:28,927 --> 00:00:33,287
Yeah, it's still a thing. And I'm going to see if we can get Wes to get it installed

8
00:00:33,287 --> 00:00:35,647
and up and running live during the show.

9
00:00:35,967 --> 00:00:39,787
In fact, during the second half of the show, he doesn't even have the whole

10
00:00:39,787 --> 00:00:45,147
show. Then we'll round it out with some great shout-outs, some picks, and a lot more.

11
00:00:45,267 --> 00:00:49,167
So before we go any further, let's say time-appropriate greetings to that virtual

12
00:00:49,167 --> 00:00:50,747
lug. Hello, Mumble Room. Welcome in.

13
00:00:50,747 --> 00:00:52,487
Hello, Brent.

14
00:00:53,387 --> 00:00:56,607
We got a real small on-air. And then look at that big old quiet listening up

15
00:00:56,607 --> 00:00:58,247
there. It's glistening with the quiet listening.

16
00:00:58,907 --> 00:01:01,587
That's nice. Thank you, everybody, for joining us there and in the Matrix chat

17
00:01:01,587 --> 00:01:02,547
and making it a live vibe.

18
00:01:03,067 --> 00:01:10,127
And a big shout-out to our friends at Defined Networking. Head over to defined.net slash unplugged.

19
00:01:10,187 --> 00:01:17,507
Go check out Managed Nebula, a decentralized VPN built on the amazing open source Nebula platform.

20
00:01:17,767 --> 00:01:21,607
It's a project we love. We've been following it for years, and it is so exciting

21
00:01:21,607 --> 00:01:25,087
to see the Managed Nebula product get to something that you can recommend to

22
00:01:25,087 --> 00:01:26,407
businesses, friends, and family.

23
00:01:26,947 --> 00:01:32,047
See, Nebula is really optimized for speed, simplicity, and industry-leading security.

24
00:01:32,587 --> 00:01:35,887
And Nebula has a decentralized design that you can completely self-host or you

25
00:01:35,887 --> 00:01:36,887
can use their managed product.

26
00:01:37,107 --> 00:01:40,767
So for your home lab or for a global enterprise, Nebula is ready to go and is

27
00:01:40,767 --> 00:01:44,887
already used in some really amazing production instances.

28
00:01:45,067 --> 00:01:48,607
I'm talking, let's just say there's Nebula going down the road out there.

29
00:01:49,827 --> 00:01:51,827
I set up my first lighthouse this weekend.

30
00:01:51,967 --> 00:01:53,547
Is that right? Good job.

31
00:01:53,787 --> 00:01:56,847
Thank you. Yeah, that's where I'm starting. I'm going to do a lighthouse and a mobile device.

32
00:01:57,607 --> 00:02:01,587
I did kind of cheat and I used Nebula Manager, but it was really nice.

33
00:02:01,587 --> 00:02:03,527
Nebula, I was, it's great actually.

34
00:02:03,647 --> 00:02:07,227
Nebula Manager is great because one of the things it did for me is it created

35
00:02:07,227 --> 00:02:10,027
a template config file that's just about ready to go.

36
00:02:10,147 --> 00:02:13,387
And so then I just went in there, bop, bop, bop through it in like two minutes max.

37
00:02:13,987 --> 00:02:17,167
And I had a lighthouse. I was like, oh, that was nothing.

38
00:02:17,487 --> 00:02:21,167
So I feel like the process is beginning. And then I think the next thing I'm

39
00:02:21,167 --> 00:02:25,127
going to set up just because this is how I roll is I think maybe there's better ways to do it.

40
00:02:25,347 --> 00:02:28,507
I'm open to input, but I think I'm going to set up a DNS server on the same

41
00:02:28,507 --> 00:02:29,607
box. That's my lighthouse.

42
00:02:30,067 --> 00:02:34,187
I have it do a name resolution for both Nebula and external stuff.

43
00:02:34,747 --> 00:02:39,627
What appeals to me is like I can build at it like this for my home lab and understand

44
00:02:39,627 --> 00:02:42,807
it and understand how it works. And I get access to everything.

45
00:02:42,987 --> 00:02:46,807
Right. But then for JB or friends or family or whatever it might be,

46
00:02:46,967 --> 00:02:48,667
the managed product is available for me.

47
00:02:49,504 --> 00:02:53,444
That I really like. I can go fully self-hosted with everything and it's not

48
00:02:53,444 --> 00:02:55,744
a compromise or I have the managed product.

49
00:02:55,924 --> 00:02:58,284
And that's something you might want to check out and just get started with.

50
00:02:58,364 --> 00:03:02,264
If you go to define.net slash unplugged, you get it 30 days for free on 100

51
00:03:02,264 --> 00:03:04,104
devices and you support the show.

52
00:03:04,224 --> 00:03:06,764
It's define.net slash unplugged.

53
00:03:07,204 --> 00:03:10,604
Nothing else offers Nebula's level of resilience, speed.

54
00:03:11,364 --> 00:03:14,924
It's really great. And I now have my first lighthouse.

55
00:03:15,244 --> 00:03:17,884
It's a moment, boys. I felt really proud. And you can do it,

56
00:03:17,884 --> 00:03:18,884
too. You can host your own.

57
00:03:19,004 --> 00:03:23,144
You can use there's a public one out there or get started with 100 hosts absolutely

58
00:03:23,144 --> 00:03:25,344
free with a managed product. Just no credit card required either.

59
00:03:25,604 --> 00:03:28,124
It's define.net slash unplugged.

60
00:03:30,644 --> 00:03:34,124
Well, Texas Linux Fest, October 3rd through the 4th at the Commons Conference

61
00:03:34,124 --> 00:03:39,244
Center in Austin, Texas, is just 18 days away, probably about 10 or so days

62
00:03:39,244 --> 00:03:41,064
until Brent needs to hit the road from right now.

63
00:03:41,184 --> 00:03:42,224
Maybe eight or five.

64
00:03:42,884 --> 00:03:45,944
I'm feeling more like seven, so I've got to pack.

65
00:03:46,104 --> 00:03:48,644
Well, you've got to think about it this way. If you've got seven or eight days

66
00:03:48,644 --> 00:03:52,364
to leave, then you've got four or five days to fix whatever you need to fix

67
00:03:52,364 --> 00:03:53,164
before you can hit the road.

68
00:03:53,784 --> 00:03:56,724
I still have a leaking roof, so I've got to get it going on that.

69
00:03:57,364 --> 00:04:00,824
We have a big update on how we're doing coming up in the show later on.

70
00:04:00,944 --> 00:04:04,344
We've been stacking support with the audience's help for Texas Linux Fest.

71
00:04:04,464 --> 00:04:05,284
It's been really awesome.

72
00:04:06,124 --> 00:04:10,704
And I think with the incredible support we've seen from the audience and the

73
00:04:10,704 --> 00:04:15,124
fact that we just ticked over our 12th anniversary, I think we should officially

74
00:04:15,124 --> 00:04:18,844
hold the unplugged birthday party at Texas Linux Fest.

75
00:04:18,984 --> 00:04:23,764
So we have a meetup on the books. If you go to meetup.com slash Jupyter Broadcasting,

76
00:04:23,984 --> 00:04:30,284
we have an Austin unplugged birthday party on October 4th during the 12 p.m.

77
00:04:30,724 --> 00:04:34,284
lunch hour. Remember that that meetup page is in Pacific time.

78
00:04:34,444 --> 00:04:36,684
So I put it in for 2 p.m. Pacific time.

79
00:04:38,586 --> 00:04:42,426
Is that right? I can't remember, but I put it in. So it equates to either way.

80
00:04:42,446 --> 00:04:44,586
It's at lunch during Texas Linux Fest.

81
00:04:44,946 --> 00:04:48,866
And there's a real nice place. It offers burgers, coffee, beer,

82
00:04:49,006 --> 00:04:53,966
cocktails right nearby with indoor and outdoor seating. So I think we'll just walk there.

83
00:04:54,646 --> 00:05:01,086
And we'll hold the 12th anniversary birthday party for Linux Unplugged on Saturday

84
00:05:01,086 --> 00:05:03,986
at Texas Linux Fest. It should be really fun, I think.

85
00:05:05,006 --> 00:05:09,546
and I think also I'm going to say grab the BitChat app while we're there on

86
00:05:09,546 --> 00:05:11,446
the ground why don't we all organize with BitChat,

87
00:05:11,966 --> 00:05:15,826
I think there's no servers required no accounts required it's just location

88
00:05:15,826 --> 00:05:19,946
and Bluetooth and IP based so get BitChat we'll have it linked in the show notes

89
00:05:19,946 --> 00:05:24,026
open source we've talked about it before could be a great way for us to just communicate that's.

90
00:05:24,026 --> 00:05:24,466
A good idea.

91
00:05:24,466 --> 00:05:28,406
As you get in the area and we do have our link we're trying to raise support

92
00:05:28,406 --> 00:05:32,126
to get to Texas Linux Fest we were going to do the commercial sponsoring route

93
00:05:32,126 --> 00:05:34,646
but nothing's really worked out and so the audience is stepping up in a big

94
00:05:34,646 --> 00:05:37,146
way to make sure that we can get down there and do what we do best,

95
00:05:37,806 --> 00:05:40,526
cover these special community events like nobody else does or can.

96
00:05:41,006 --> 00:05:43,646
And so we'll have a link in the show notes. You can use PayPal,

97
00:05:43,786 --> 00:05:48,186
Venmo, or OnChain, or Lightning to support us.

98
00:05:48,246 --> 00:05:52,026
And you can put a little message in there. I'm kind of playfully calling it a fake boost.

99
00:05:52,686 --> 00:05:57,446
You can also, of course, boost us and put a message in there for going right

100
00:05:57,446 --> 00:05:59,026
into our fund to get us down to Texas.

101
00:05:59,786 --> 00:06:03,926
And I also think you could consider picking up a VLOG identification item like

102
00:06:03,926 --> 00:06:05,746
a hat or a t-shirt at the Jupyter Garage.

103
00:06:06,066 --> 00:06:09,966
We have a couple of new ones up there that you could put on and get identified

104
00:06:09,966 --> 00:06:13,206
by the team right away. You can find that at JupyterGarage.com.

105
00:06:14,246 --> 00:06:16,086
I wonder, did we get the new hat colors on there?

106
00:06:16,186 --> 00:06:17,226
Ooh, good question.

107
00:06:17,486 --> 00:06:17,906
Yeah, I don't know.

108
00:06:17,906 --> 00:06:21,846
I'm getting excited already. I mean, the schedule for Texas Linux Fest is up now.

109
00:06:22,026 --> 00:06:26,246
It's looking good. It's looking real good. And you're on Saturday.

110
00:06:26,486 --> 00:06:27,166
That's right, yeah.

111
00:06:27,346 --> 00:06:29,366
Everybody should come see Wes's talk on Saturday.

112
00:06:29,546 --> 00:06:30,286
After our meetup.

113
00:06:32,170 --> 00:06:35,230
And then right before the after parties, which there'll probably be several of.

114
00:06:35,950 --> 00:06:39,130
So you could grab yourself a VLOG identification item. So that way you stand

115
00:06:39,130 --> 00:06:41,030
up from the crowd at jupytergarage.com.

116
00:06:41,230 --> 00:06:46,130
Of course, we have the booths and we have the playfully titled fake booths.

117
00:06:46,170 --> 00:06:48,950
If you would like to support us that way, we'll have a link for that in the show notes.

118
00:06:49,110 --> 00:06:51,530
And we'll have an update on how we're doing in just a little bit.

119
00:06:54,890 --> 00:06:58,410
But KDE hit a new release stage in this last week.

120
00:06:58,530 --> 00:07:01,390
And we wanted to take a look at it. We've been talking about it on and off to

121
00:07:01,390 --> 00:07:05,330
our bootleg members and just wanted to get everyone caught up really quickly.

122
00:07:05,650 --> 00:07:10,170
The KDE community that makes the Plasma desktop has also now started creating

123
00:07:10,170 --> 00:07:11,270
their own distribution.

124
00:07:11,690 --> 00:07:16,650
And it's built by the KDE project to sort of feature the Plasma desktop and Plasma technologies.

125
00:07:17,010 --> 00:07:21,510
And we've entered into, it's still, I guess it's not, it's alpha,

126
00:07:21,610 --> 00:07:23,550
but it's not alpha, alpha. I mean, how are they calling?

127
00:07:23,550 --> 00:07:30,130
I mean, they do call it the alpha release of KDE Linux, at least Nate did over in his blog post.

128
00:07:30,170 --> 00:07:33,350
It's like the next alpha, I suppose. I mean, the reason why I'm trying to make

129
00:07:33,350 --> 00:07:36,330
this clear is it's still early days, everybody.

130
00:07:36,550 --> 00:07:40,790
But it is a new operating system intended eventually to be at a spot where you

131
00:07:40,790 --> 00:07:41,950
could daily drive this thing.

132
00:07:42,030 --> 00:07:46,790
It would showcase Plasma and KDE software in the best light they feel that the developers feel.

133
00:07:47,390 --> 00:07:50,850
And they would try to highlight modern technologies in their Wayland and Butterfess.

134
00:07:51,530 --> 00:07:56,010
So I think what's notable is they're calling this a testing edition now.

135
00:07:56,170 --> 00:07:59,930
So it's still considered alpha, but it's at the stage where they want to get public testing.

136
00:08:00,770 --> 00:08:05,910
So in there right now is an unreleased version of Plasma. Plasma 6.5 is in there right now.

137
00:08:06,350 --> 00:08:08,850
And so you can get to play with the latest and greatest stuff that way.

138
00:08:09,250 --> 00:08:13,170
And I know immediately you're probably thinking as you listen to this, boys,

139
00:08:14,414 --> 00:08:19,534
Why do we need another Linux distro? Why? Well, this is what the KDE project says.

140
00:08:19,794 --> 00:08:22,994
They say, quote, KDE is a huge producer of software.

141
00:08:23,434 --> 00:08:26,554
It's awkward for us not to have our own method of distributing it.

142
00:08:26,914 --> 00:08:32,234
Yes, KDE produces open source that others distribute, but we self-distribute

143
00:08:32,234 --> 00:08:35,534
our apps on app stores like FlatHub and the Snap Store and Microsoft stores.

144
00:08:35,774 --> 00:08:41,054
So I think it's natural for us to have our own platform for doing that distribution too.

145
00:08:41,494 --> 00:08:45,994
And that is an operating system. and so that's kind of what they say now brent there's neon though.

146
00:08:45,994 --> 00:08:49,034
Yeah nate has some words here about neon because well

147
00:08:49,034 --> 00:08:52,034
if you remember that was the old version or

148
00:08:52,034 --> 00:08:55,014
oof am i supposed to call it that but that was the version

149
00:08:55,014 --> 00:08:59,894
of linux that they were putting out for developers and those of us who are i

150
00:08:59,894 --> 00:09:02,774
don't know interested in finding bugs to give it a shot chris you were running

151
00:09:02,774 --> 00:09:08,274
that for a long time in studio too yeah indeed at least nate says kd is not

152
00:09:08,274 --> 00:09:13,374
cancelled however it has shed most of its developers over the years, which is problematic,

153
00:09:13,714 --> 00:09:17,534
and it's currently being held together by a heroic volunteer.

154
00:09:18,094 --> 00:09:22,954
While Neon continues to exist, KDE Linux therefore does represent duplication.

155
00:09:23,274 --> 00:09:26,914
As for unnecessary, I'm not sure about that.

156
00:09:27,454 --> 00:09:32,834
Harold, myself, and others feel that KDE Neon has somewhat reached its limit

157
00:09:32,834 --> 00:09:34,654
in terms of what we can do with it.

158
00:09:34,874 --> 00:09:41,134
It was a great First product that KDE distributed some software and prepared

159
00:09:41,134 --> 00:09:43,954
the world for the idea of KDE in that role.

160
00:09:44,174 --> 00:09:46,814
And it served admirably for about a decade.

161
00:09:47,314 --> 00:09:52,574
But technological and conceptual issues limit how far we can continue to develop it.

162
00:09:52,754 --> 00:09:56,394
I mean, I can definitely understand preferring, even in an alpha,

163
00:09:56,614 --> 00:09:58,174
what they've got going now to develop.

164
00:09:58,816 --> 00:10:01,796
to putting things together the way Katie Neon did. That said,

165
00:10:02,256 --> 00:10:03,936
I mean, I ran it for years.

166
00:10:04,156 --> 00:10:06,876
We ran it at the studio for years. It really did work well.

167
00:10:07,116 --> 00:10:10,736
Yeah. Yeah, I think during his heyday, it was actually a really great showcase.

168
00:10:11,456 --> 00:10:16,056
I guess I do empathize with the idea of that was our V1 and this is our V2.

169
00:10:16,676 --> 00:10:18,276
I can kind of connect with that.

170
00:10:18,416 --> 00:10:22,056
And it feels like, you know, designing something like this 10 years ago versus

171
00:10:22,056 --> 00:10:27,376
designing it in, you know, with modern applications and construction in mind.

172
00:10:27,376 --> 00:10:29,596
Of course, they're going to come up with a very different product.

173
00:10:29,896 --> 00:10:33,396
All right, BigPain. So they keep saying it's a modern, it's a modern design.

174
00:10:33,796 --> 00:10:38,216
What do they mean when they're saying it's modern? What does that mean in today's Linux distro parlance?

175
00:10:38,696 --> 00:10:42,496
Yeah, we do live in an interesting time where people are building all kinds

176
00:10:42,496 --> 00:10:44,476
of new wacky different versions of Linux.

177
00:10:44,856 --> 00:10:49,516
This is not using OS Tree or Bootsy like we've seen over, like when we talk

178
00:10:49,516 --> 00:10:50,996
about our uBlue friends.

179
00:10:51,856 --> 00:10:55,796
I guess they're using Arch as a base, but then they're using a tool called Make

180
00:10:55,796 --> 00:11:00,316
OSI that produces like a operating system image file.

181
00:11:00,536 --> 00:11:06,596
And then under the hood, you get a ButterFS main partition with a system sub-volume

182
00:11:06,596 --> 00:11:08,736
that is your sort of like writable world.

183
00:11:09,116 --> 00:11:14,856
And then they're using EROFS, which is like a read-only file system that the

184
00:11:14,856 --> 00:11:17,076
kernel has a modern take on that.

185
00:11:17,256 --> 00:11:23,276
And so they ship these images that they build as these EROFS read-only file

186
00:11:23,276 --> 00:11:27,636
systems that get put on your file system and managed by systemd with updatectl

187
00:11:27,636 --> 00:11:30,016
and there's a whole suite of systemd tools for this.

188
00:11:30,176 --> 00:11:36,216
Right, so you update with systemd. That's crazy. It's fun. It's not the best UI, but it's fun.

189
00:11:36,296 --> 00:11:38,776
And then, of course, that can hook into the systemd boot stuff.

190
00:11:38,796 --> 00:11:42,456
Right now, this does only work on UEFI systems and so you can have the A,

191
00:11:42,556 --> 00:11:44,656
B, different versions that you can roll back to.

192
00:11:45,316 --> 00:11:48,676
And there's a lot to like in terms of you really just download a new file system

193
00:11:48,676 --> 00:11:52,736
image onto your hard drive, gets kind of rigged up a little, just a little bit,

194
00:11:52,956 --> 00:11:55,616
connect a few dots, and then it seemed I

195
00:11:55,616 --> 00:11:58,476
did I was doing some poking mostly because

196
00:11:58,476 --> 00:12:01,496
it foils a lot of like the sort of kegs xf

197
00:12:01,496 --> 00:12:04,676
I like to do they do actually load the pmem module that

198
00:12:04,676 --> 00:12:07,356
I needed in the init ram fs already which I had to extract out of

199
00:12:07,356 --> 00:12:11,836
the unified kernel that they uh boot but they're using something where basically

200
00:12:11,836 --> 00:12:17,256
systemd systemd boot passes an efi variable that tells it which drive it booted

201
00:12:17,256 --> 00:12:20,796
from and then it can just use the gpt partitioning to figure out what your root

202
00:12:20,796 --> 00:12:24,976
is automatically and it sort of like auto generates these mount units for you.

203
00:12:25,236 --> 00:12:30,376
And then on top of that, KDE Linux is making sure that this EROFS,

204
00:12:30,596 --> 00:12:33,536
so it's like it mounts the ButterFS system as your actual root,

205
00:12:33,576 --> 00:12:37,396
but then immediately before you ever get anywhere, it mounts this read-only

206
00:12:37,396 --> 00:12:39,596
to just the slash user part.

207
00:12:40,156 --> 00:12:42,776
And so all of that comes from their pre-built images.

208
00:12:43,396 --> 00:12:45,836
Ah, and where you're living is in the sub-volume.

209
00:12:46,316 --> 00:12:49,876
That's where stuff like Etsy and other places that you can write to.

210
00:12:50,056 --> 00:12:51,516
Is home in there too in the sub-volume?

211
00:12:51,596 --> 00:12:51,716
Yeah.

212
00:12:53,012 --> 00:12:56,232
Yeah, okay. That's actually a pretty clever way to lay it out.

213
00:12:56,552 --> 00:13:00,052
I like that when I looked at it first, I thought, oh, okay, they didn't do home

214
00:13:00,052 --> 00:13:02,192
as its own partition. No, no, because it's in that sub-volume group.

215
00:13:02,552 --> 00:13:05,692
And, you know, they actually listed explicitly things like Nix or other tools

216
00:13:05,692 --> 00:13:09,592
like, you know, if we don't do, they were originally at some point in their

217
00:13:09,592 --> 00:13:13,032
design doing a fully, like, immutable, just like at root.

218
00:13:13,632 --> 00:13:18,052
But they felt this gave them a lot of the same guarantees, but with a little more compatibility.

219
00:13:18,112 --> 00:13:21,192
Although I did very quickly try to install Nix and it was kind of failing because

220
00:13:21,192 --> 00:13:25,252
it was trying to write under user local, I think, which was still read-only

221
00:13:25,252 --> 00:13:28,392
and so still was breaking some things. But I didn't try that hard.

222
00:13:28,732 --> 00:13:31,812
So this has been one of my questions is, and you just touched on it,

223
00:13:32,992 --> 00:13:34,532
who is this ultimately for?

224
00:13:36,252 --> 00:13:41,372
And I guess what you just alluded to is there is some flexibility in the underlying

225
00:13:41,372 --> 00:13:47,632
system because one of the groups they're clearly targeting is developers.

226
00:13:47,632 --> 00:13:52,772
They say, quote, you want to participate in KDE's QA process and find issues

227
00:13:52,772 --> 00:13:57,292
or early bugs, or, quote, you are a KDE Plasma developer, are some of the groups

228
00:13:57,292 --> 00:14:00,092
they implicitly state on their website they're targeting as developers.

229
00:14:00,292 --> 00:14:05,052
And so my concern is a lot of times an immutable system is a little too rigid

230
00:14:05,052 --> 00:14:08,292
and you end up doing everything in distro box or everything in containers because

231
00:14:08,292 --> 00:14:10,872
developers need tools. They need libraries.

232
00:14:11,092 --> 00:14:15,052
They need all the crap that they use to build their particular applications

233
00:14:15,052 --> 00:14:17,752
with their particular workflow, with their particular preferences.

234
00:14:18,632 --> 00:14:22,252
That's where an immutable distro can be a little bit of friction.

235
00:14:22,572 --> 00:14:25,452
And if you're trying to make something where people can come and build applications

236
00:14:25,452 --> 00:14:27,592
for the Plasma desktop, they're going to need to be able to,

237
00:14:28,533 --> 00:14:33,513
I don't know, what would be a basic closure setup for you, and could you get

238
00:14:33,513 --> 00:14:34,873
that working on something like this?

239
00:14:35,533 --> 00:14:38,533
Yeah, I mean, I do think you are probably going to run into some limits.

240
00:14:38,533 --> 00:14:40,873
It does support homebrew, so you can get homebrew going.

241
00:14:41,093 --> 00:14:44,673
It's kind of like a lot of these modern systems. If it sufficiently sideloads

242
00:14:44,673 --> 00:14:47,733
cleanly, then you can kind of make it work maybe with some modifications or

243
00:14:47,733 --> 00:14:50,193
some jerry-rig support that you might need.

244
00:14:50,593 --> 00:14:56,033
And, of course, for a lot of stuff, especially with KDE, there's flat packs are very first class.

245
00:14:56,033 --> 00:14:59,713
so even if you want to develop some on kde software because

246
00:14:59,713 --> 00:15:02,613
they do have a section in their wiki that kind of addresses like well

247
00:15:02,613 --> 00:15:05,913
here's how you might go about developing non-kde software

248
00:15:05,913 --> 00:15:08,913
and how do you what if you want to work on the distro itself and so there's

249
00:15:08,913 --> 00:15:12,973
various setups i do think right containerization or things will probably come

250
00:15:12,973 --> 00:15:18,593
into play they do mention um distro box as well and and docker yep um and system

251
00:15:18,593 --> 00:15:23,773
d system extensions is another tool that they seem to be adopting in a pretty first class way that.

252
00:15:23,773 --> 00:15:27,913
Felt like when i come next time i come back around to kdelinux that i think i want to play with.

253
00:15:27,913 --> 00:15:32,093
And that lets you kind of do another take at this like overlaying right you

254
00:15:32,093 --> 00:15:35,633
can be like oh hey i want you to overlay these files on top of my what i've

255
00:15:35,633 --> 00:15:39,773
already got going on slash user to then add this extra especially with systemd

256
00:15:39,773 --> 00:15:43,433
where like you can override and hook in new units and lots of things.

257
00:15:43,433 --> 00:15:46,753
They do say in the documentation though install at your own risk this could

258
00:15:46,753 --> 00:15:51,093
break things and i think that's the takeaway for this entire distribution is

259
00:15:51,093 --> 00:15:55,173
install at your own risk it's it's still early and that said brent i know you've

260
00:15:55,173 --> 00:15:57,533
had a little bit of time with it we've all just spent kind of the weekend with

261
00:15:57,533 --> 00:16:00,553
it i'm curious what your first impressions were.

262
00:16:00,553 --> 00:16:04,553
As soon as i hit download it was the excitement i think anything coming out

263
00:16:04,553 --> 00:16:08,953
of the kd project i've been a fan of for a long time and we've been hearing.

264
00:16:08,953 --> 00:16:10,753
About your bias here now there.

265
00:16:10,753 --> 00:16:14,513
Is a bias for sure i think that's worth mentioning is i think all three of us

266
00:16:14,513 --> 00:16:19,033
we've become over the years pretty impressed with what the plasma desktop has

267
00:16:19,033 --> 00:16:22,653
achieved and the kde apps and ecosystem and the consistency that they've achieved

268
00:16:22,653 --> 00:16:24,813
so you're right brent but I think they've earned it.

269
00:16:25,113 --> 00:16:28,093
They've earned it by producing and being there year after year.

270
00:16:28,333 --> 00:16:31,793
And if you look at the transition from the five series to six series and how

271
00:16:31,793 --> 00:16:34,413
smooth that went, it's really impressive from that team.

272
00:16:35,333 --> 00:16:40,753
And so I think I've been excited about this coming since we heard little murmurs

273
00:16:40,753 --> 00:16:43,333
about it. What was that? Six months ago, something like that.

274
00:16:43,633 --> 00:16:48,153
So it's nice to see it finally come out. And yeah, sure. I'm biased and excited.

275
00:16:48,333 --> 00:16:53,393
So that was the first going into it emotion that i felt now i did of course

276
00:16:53,393 --> 00:16:56,993
see some differences like the download is a dot raw that was a little new for

277
00:16:56,993 --> 00:17:00,533
me i don't believe i've installed anything from a dot raw,

278
00:17:01,033 --> 00:17:05,393
uh typically you know you get an iso or something like that and i wondered if

279
00:17:05,393 --> 00:17:09,933
that would give me any issues but you know this being an alpha i thought i'm

280
00:17:09,933 --> 00:17:12,733
just gonna give it a quick test in a vm and that's,

281
00:17:13,584 --> 00:17:16,724
plenty fine maybe for a first go around

282
00:17:16,724 --> 00:17:21,004
and that booted up just fine if you you know give it enough space and all of

283
00:17:21,004 --> 00:17:27,304
that stuff what i ran into quickly though was i had issues partitioning and

284
00:17:27,304 --> 00:17:30,804
i know wes you were like i didn't have any issues at all but something about

285
00:17:30,804 --> 00:17:33,664
my setup gave me issues in the installer yeah.

286
00:17:33,664 --> 00:17:36,624
I installed it probably like 10 times overall just.

287
00:17:36,624 --> 00:17:37,924
Because i I kept tweaking and trying stuff.

288
00:17:37,924 --> 00:17:39,384
And all of them worked.

289
00:17:39,624 --> 00:17:45,484
And I don't know what I did. I obviously tried to troubleshoot it quite a bit

290
00:17:45,484 --> 00:17:50,784
and I did make some progress and I ended up the auto partitioning wasn't really

291
00:17:50,784 --> 00:17:52,744
working for me for whatever reason.

292
00:17:52,744 --> 00:17:55,264
So I ended up doing, you know, doing it manually.

293
00:17:55,504 --> 00:18:00,744
And even then I would get to the install process and it would chug for a little

294
00:18:00,744 --> 00:18:03,504
bit and then eventually get some IO errors and things like that.

295
00:18:03,584 --> 00:18:07,204
So it could very, very, very well be. It's my particular setup.

296
00:18:07,424 --> 00:18:09,184
How did you break your virtual hardware?

297
00:18:09,404 --> 00:18:14,444
Why is everything always breaking around me? So I did the smart thing and wrote

298
00:18:14,444 --> 00:18:19,504
that raw image to a USB drive and figured, go bare metal, baby.

299
00:18:20,724 --> 00:18:26,324
And so I gave that a shot today. And strangely, that excitement was still there.

300
00:18:27,704 --> 00:18:30,484
And I still didn't have anywhere to install it

301
00:18:30,484 --> 00:18:34,344
because I didn't want to wipe the entire you know framework maybe

302
00:18:34,344 --> 00:18:38,184
an hour or two before the show but I

303
00:18:38,184 --> 00:18:41,564
get a sense you guys might convince me to do that after the show but

304
00:18:41,564 --> 00:18:44,344
I did get it running and ran into a couple little

305
00:18:44,344 --> 00:18:47,084
bugs like plasma crashed one time and I

306
00:18:47,084 --> 00:18:52,564
did have some errors doing updates but eventually an image came in and I realized

307
00:18:52,564 --> 00:18:58,004
these are huge I know the installer told me hey you're gonna need at least 40

308
00:18:58,004 --> 00:19:02,904
gigs to install this as opposed to what typically we see like 8 16 gigs something

309
00:19:02,904 --> 00:19:06,964
like that so i know there's stuff that's a little different under the if.

310
00:19:06,964 --> 00:19:10,724
The images are big and if you've got a big faster net connection it's no big

311
00:19:10,724 --> 00:19:13,444
deal and if you're on a slower connection you really feel it.

312
00:19:13,444 --> 00:19:16,104
They weren't even that fast i have a pretty decent.

313
00:19:16,104 --> 00:19:17,064
Connection and it.

314
00:19:17,064 --> 00:19:18,284
Was still you know a few minutes.

315
00:19:18,284 --> 00:19:23,424
Yeah when i did the update ctl update or upgrade whatever it was at first i

316
00:19:23,424 --> 00:19:26,624
thought nothing was happening and then i realized that that progress bar was

317
00:19:26,624 --> 00:19:30,864
just taking a real long time it was just at like one or zero percent it does have.

318
00:19:30,864 --> 00:19:32,584
A fancy little colored progress bar though.

319
00:19:32,584 --> 00:19:34,264
That's true and.

320
00:19:34,264 --> 00:19:39,004
Once that image is downloaded it switched so fast i thought it failed,

321
00:19:39,911 --> 00:19:43,571
so there's that for it it's got that going forward um i'm curious what your

322
00:19:43,571 --> 00:19:45,311
impressions were just kicking the tires wes.

323
00:19:45,311 --> 00:19:48,211
Yeah i like it i mean it's a it's a very

324
00:19:48,211 --> 00:19:51,411
lean system pretty much everything's just in flatbacks a

325
00:19:51,411 --> 00:19:54,431
little bit in the base system as little as they can i think yeah

326
00:19:54,431 --> 00:19:57,231
so it's pretty snappy uh which is nice you know comes from a

327
00:19:57,231 --> 00:20:00,591
pretty nice little arch base for what you do get in the base system i

328
00:20:00,591 --> 00:20:04,671
was trying it out in a vm i did try it on hardware at the end too but in my

329
00:20:04,671 --> 00:20:09,171
first install i noticed that my mouse was totally upside down but in a way where

330
00:20:09,171 --> 00:20:12,971
i clearly like where you clicked was down no longer where anywhere that was

331
00:20:12,971 --> 00:20:15,671
drawing the mouse so you kind of had to guess it was just like a little you

332
00:20:15,671 --> 00:20:17,951
know a few millimeters above that it's.

333
00:20:17,951 --> 00:20:19,411
We run into that every now and then.

334
00:20:19,411 --> 00:20:20,211
Yeah but not.

335
00:20:20,211 --> 00:20:22,791
Unusual but i saw other folks reporting that issue as well.

336
00:20:22,791 --> 00:20:25,471
And so i just thought like is this some weird issue you know

337
00:20:25,471 --> 00:20:28,491
what there's a lot of ways that could happen but it was just a plasma issue

338
00:20:28,491 --> 00:20:31,351
because like or something some way that they were plugging it all together because

339
00:20:31,351 --> 00:20:34,731
not only did it not do that at the login screen uh

340
00:20:34,731 --> 00:20:37,951
but then after i did an update it totally went away so um

341
00:20:37,951 --> 00:20:41,571
and i see i could see because i was running over a couple days that yeah they've

342
00:20:41,571 --> 00:20:45,431
clearly got their ci all hooked up and it's pumping out like daily or nightly

343
00:20:45,431 --> 00:20:49,411
images that you get updates for i don't know that they have like the binary

344
00:20:49,411 --> 00:20:52,611
diff stuff that they eventually want to be able to do happening right now so

345
00:20:52,611 --> 00:20:55,811
you know do be aware of that if you're on a connection yeah.

346
00:20:55,811 --> 00:20:59,651
Yeah if you're metered you might you might maybe wait because i'm sure it's

347
00:20:59,651 --> 00:21:01,111
under very rapid development at the moment.

348
00:21:01,111 --> 00:21:05,371
I do think like if you're someone who really likes fresh Plasma and wants to

349
00:21:05,371 --> 00:21:09,771
live dangerously, if you can already make a system like this work where you

350
00:21:09,771 --> 00:21:11,151
are doing stuff in containers,

351
00:21:11,411 --> 00:21:15,511
you're happy to run stuff in Flatpak or as browser tabs, then for that kind

352
00:21:15,511 --> 00:21:17,411
of workstation, it'd be totally fine.

353
00:21:17,891 --> 00:21:21,251
I asked you guys earlier, who's this for? And I'll tell you what my use case is.

354
00:21:22,031 --> 00:21:26,991
I want to check out Plasma from time to time. And why not spend the weekend in the latest Plasma?

355
00:21:27,471 --> 00:21:31,231
And now that you've got the functionally atomic setup,

356
00:21:31,951 --> 00:21:35,311
while it is like this brand new setup and maybe you're on these unreleased versions

357
00:21:35,311 --> 00:21:39,511
and all that like that sharp edge is at least somewhat blunted by the fact that

358
00:21:39,511 --> 00:21:43,171
you can roll back if you do have a known good state that's fair.

359
00:21:43,391 --> 00:21:44,991
That's fair you have that sort of safety net.

360
00:21:44,991 --> 00:21:47,991
I'm not saying go switch all your business employees to this but you know.

361
00:21:47,991 --> 00:21:52,731
I mean it right now is very much, it's an MVP it ships with Dolphin Console,

362
00:21:52,871 --> 00:21:56,971
Arc Spectacle, Discover Infocenter, System Settings and a couple other system

363
00:21:56,971 --> 00:22:01,171
level apps in the base image and then Kate and Firefox are installed via Flatpak.

364
00:22:02,650 --> 00:22:04,090
That's pretty much it, boys.

365
00:22:04,470 --> 00:22:04,650
Lean.

366
00:22:05,190 --> 00:22:10,030
It is. Which I don't mind. Discover is installed, already pre-configured to look at FlatHub.

367
00:22:10,930 --> 00:22:14,610
The one thing that really stands out, though, when you're on a really lean system

368
00:22:14,610 --> 00:22:20,590
and you open up Discover, I don't know what they're using to pick what shows.

369
00:22:20,890 --> 00:22:24,930
But, like, so if you wanted somebody to be able to sit down and install this

370
00:22:24,930 --> 00:22:28,790
and be able to maybe just add some of the most common applications,

371
00:22:28,790 --> 00:22:33,170
that's not what's on the front page of Discover. It's like a random selection of apps.

372
00:22:34,090 --> 00:22:36,070
So you really have to know what you're looking for, which is fine,

373
00:22:36,090 --> 00:22:40,790
but it'd be kind of cool just to have, you know, maybe like a curated selection

374
00:22:40,790 --> 00:22:43,530
of like the most go-to apps that people need to get their system working and

375
00:22:43,530 --> 00:22:44,690
functional just right there.

376
00:22:45,390 --> 00:22:48,610
I was really happy to see ButterFS on route. Nice to see that.

377
00:22:48,730 --> 00:22:53,230
And they also have a Z standard compression, as our friends would say, enabled by default.

378
00:22:53,410 --> 00:22:55,570
They also have the SSD flag turned on.

379
00:22:56,270 --> 00:23:02,170
but ultimately my impression was is plasma 6.5 i get to play with plasma 6.5.

380
00:23:02,170 --> 00:23:02,790
What this.

381
00:23:02,790 --> 00:23:06,770
Is great i don't have to mess up my my whole system just to go play with plasma.

382
00:23:06,770 --> 00:23:10,210
This is another case right where like since they do have all the automation

383
00:23:10,210 --> 00:23:15,250
set up you just get these stamped output regular snapshots of what um what the

384
00:23:15,250 --> 00:23:17,290
trees look like i don't know the exact details but.

385
00:23:17,290 --> 00:23:22,150
Some of the stuff that i that actually really tickled me in 6.5 has been in

386
00:23:22,150 --> 00:23:27,030
plasma at least for a couple of releases but just for an example the remote

387
00:23:27,030 --> 00:23:30,550
desktop stuff is so nice now,

388
00:23:31,250 --> 00:23:34,190
you go into system settings remote desktops in that there's

389
00:23:34,190 --> 00:23:37,090
a section for it you enable a user

390
00:23:37,090 --> 00:23:40,390
so i turned on i added my user and then

391
00:23:40,390 --> 00:23:43,770
you check a box and then it gives you your ip and

392
00:23:43,770 --> 00:23:46,710
so i went over to another computer i installed krdp or

393
00:23:46,710 --> 00:23:49,770
whatever it is put in the ip address set no

394
00:23:49,770 --> 00:23:52,730
other settings hit enter and entered my

395
00:23:52,730 --> 00:23:57,430
username and password and i was remote controlling the plasma that plasma machine

396
00:23:57,430 --> 00:24:03,230
a katie linux machine over whalen over whalen on both systems on both ends no

397
00:24:03,230 --> 00:24:07,010
problem really good performance like i could move the windows around with the

398
00:24:07,010 --> 00:24:09,790
wobble and everything now obviously wait.

399
00:24:09,790 --> 00:24:10,890
With the what what.

400
00:24:10,890 --> 00:24:14,990
Did you say with the wobbles you gotta have the Wobble, right?

401
00:24:15,590 --> 00:24:21,250
I want the absolute latest version of the Wobble. I want nightly Wobble, okay? And I have it now.

402
00:24:21,430 --> 00:24:25,310
And the remote desktop, all that stuff, like the things they've been adding to Plasma,

403
00:24:26,958 --> 00:24:31,398
It's so well refined and comes together in 6.5. So who's it for?

404
00:24:31,578 --> 00:24:33,738
I think it's for people that want to just experience Plasma.

405
00:24:34,838 --> 00:24:38,818
Maybe you're creating an application and you want to see how it works on kind

406
00:24:38,818 --> 00:24:42,238
of like the reference Plasma desktop.

407
00:24:42,438 --> 00:24:45,598
Because I think that's what this is striving for is the reference Plasma desktop.

408
00:24:45,718 --> 00:24:48,458
And for some users, that's going to be very appealing to them.

409
00:24:49,138 --> 00:24:52,538
For other folks, it might be something we check in from time to time.

410
00:24:54,058 --> 00:24:59,818
But, I mean, does it feel like an alpha? a little but like you're saying you

411
00:24:59,818 --> 00:25:04,298
can always revert like nate he's been running it for months on on the daily

412
00:25:04,298 --> 00:25:06,378
so it's getting to a point already.

413
00:25:06,378 --> 00:25:10,518
I do think right like we are the ecosystem is adapting now to work better in

414
00:25:10,518 --> 00:25:13,898
this environment where like what you depend on from that core operating system

415
00:25:13,898 --> 00:25:18,298
is is less and less and that means there's less that you have to get to to get

416
00:25:18,298 --> 00:25:20,178
to sort of minimum viable distro in that sense.

417
00:25:20,178 --> 00:25:28,358
I also get a vibe that maybe there's a long-term goal to create a reference platform for OEMs.

418
00:25:29,118 --> 00:25:33,358
Hardware manufacturers that want to ship laptops or tablets or whatever using

419
00:25:33,358 --> 00:25:36,598
Plasma. And we also seem to have a bit of a roadmap.

420
00:25:37,318 --> 00:25:40,718
Three additions are planned. Testing, which will be like daily Git builds.

421
00:25:41,178 --> 00:25:44,458
Enthusiast, which will be the beta versions of released KDE software.

422
00:25:45,118 --> 00:25:48,638
And then Stable, which will be only released quality checked software.

423
00:25:48,758 --> 00:25:52,358
So you'll have three additions of KDE Linux eventually. There's only one right now.

424
00:25:52,358 --> 00:25:53,658
Right because.

425
00:25:53,658 --> 00:25:58,338
It's probably it's all just testing right now but uh that kind of also sort

426
00:25:58,338 --> 00:26:03,678
of slices it up right enthusiasts you could go check out the the enthusiast

427
00:26:03,678 --> 00:26:08,238
track of it or whatever you want to call it or the enthusiast edition i think it's good.

428
00:26:08,238 --> 00:26:11,598
One thing i wonder you know in the ublue world there's it

429
00:26:11,598 --> 00:26:15,938
is very much on like the container side of this tech i wonder you know what

430
00:26:15,938 --> 00:26:19,978
you see there where it's also encouraged like you can just import that and add

431
00:26:19,978 --> 00:26:23,598
your own layers on top and make your own thing i wonder will people fork this

432
00:26:23,598 --> 00:26:27,458
will there be like you know system extensions or things that become like here's

433
00:26:27,458 --> 00:26:31,198
like an add-on for kd linux obviously not right now but maybe these.

434
00:26:31,198 --> 00:26:36,398
Additions also get me thinking about who is the audience right like uh daily

435
00:26:36,398 --> 00:26:40,358
get builds i totally get that through testing even maybe enthusiasts you get

436
00:26:40,358 --> 00:26:45,358
bug checkers and things like that but i guess it's natural to put out a stable

437
00:26:45,358 --> 00:26:48,598
but is that really their goal makes me is that maybe for.

438
00:26:48,598 --> 00:26:50,598
The neon folks that have been you know because neon.

439
00:26:50,598 --> 00:26:53,518
Has been based on a boat to lts great so.

440
00:26:53,518 --> 00:26:54,778
Maybe this is yeah for them,

441
00:26:56,620 --> 00:26:59,800
And if you were going to run it on the daily yourself, that might be the one you want to target.

442
00:26:59,880 --> 00:27:04,240
Because even with the stable version, I'm sure once the next version of Plasma

443
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:06,540
is considered stable, you get it probably that day.

444
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:10,160
Although I wonder, because there's the Plasma component, but then there's,

445
00:27:10,340 --> 00:27:12,580
like, if they're using Arch as the upstream, there's the...

446
00:27:12,580 --> 00:27:13,360
That's true.

447
00:27:13,860 --> 00:27:17,600
I don't know how many net packages it is that we could take a look at.

448
00:27:17,660 --> 00:27:21,660
Maybe that's not a crazy burden, but in theory, that is rolling underneath still that you get snapshots?

449
00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:23,840
Unless they're backporting, you know, there's...

450
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:26,920
And Chris, maybe it's perfect for you. you run stable most of the time and then

451
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:30,080
when you want to get that weekend where you get a little preview you just switch

452
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:31,860
images to testing and give it.

453
00:27:31,860 --> 00:27:34,640
A couple right you could rebase that is one

454
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:39,860
of the that is one of this distro hopping is going to be something that we tell

455
00:27:39,860 --> 00:27:44,780
future generations that we used to do oh yeah we used to reload the entire system

456
00:27:44,780 --> 00:27:49,000
and we'd we'd we'd format it or some some of us would have separate partitions

457
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,440
or drives for our home folder and we'd move we'd keep that between the reinstalls

458
00:27:52,440 --> 00:27:53,760
and it'd be a couple hours.

459
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,800
Or people had slick setups right on their case so they could switch,

460
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:58,320
which was like the primary hard drive.

461
00:27:58,620 --> 00:27:58,800
All the switches.

462
00:27:58,980 --> 00:28:01,480
We used to like K-Exec, you know? That used to be a thing.

463
00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,620
But now we just rebase and in five minutes you're on the new thing.

464
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:06,160
Lame.

465
00:28:07,660 --> 00:28:10,760
It is nice though to be able to check things out. You could rebase to testing

466
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,200
for the weekend and then go back to stable.

467
00:28:13,060 --> 00:28:16,580
So interesting. I think it's going to be a distribution to watch,

468
00:28:16,700 --> 00:28:18,000
obviously just because of who's making it.

469
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:22,780
The security updates will lag a bit behind Arch. They say by a day or so.

470
00:28:23,220 --> 00:28:27,120
Maybe that gives a little insight to the process there. The governance seems

471
00:28:27,120 --> 00:28:31,480
to be run by, quote, a council of elders, according to LWN, with a final arbiter involved.

472
00:28:31,980 --> 00:28:36,260
And if there's ever an end of life to KDE Linux, like they, and I like that

473
00:28:36,260 --> 00:28:37,380
they're talking about this.

474
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:44,580
If the project fails, they say a last update will convert the system into another supported distro.

475
00:28:45,700 --> 00:28:48,300
Thinking about the whole lifecycle up front is smart. That's,

476
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:53,820
I don't know what that, what exactly that means, but okay, they're promising.

477
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:55,340
It goes back to neon.

478
00:28:57,260 --> 00:28:58,040
Nix, NixOS.

479
00:29:03,820 --> 00:29:08,420
OnePassword.com slash unplugged. That's the number one password.com and it's

480
00:29:08,420 --> 00:29:10,820
unplugged in the classic lowercase style.

481
00:29:10,980 --> 00:29:14,940
Go take the first step to better security for your team by securing credentials

482
00:29:14,940 --> 00:29:19,100
and protecting every application. even unmanaged shadow IT.

483
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:22,580
You want to go to 1password.com slash unplug to learn more.

484
00:29:22,740 --> 00:29:26,760
So this is the thing that I think is a clear and present reality.

485
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:31,080
If you're in security or you're in IT, you already have a mountain of assets to begin with.

486
00:29:31,180 --> 00:29:33,680
You've got different devices, different identities for the staff,

487
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,160
all the different applications required to run the business. It's a lot.

488
00:29:38,030 --> 00:29:42,190
And there's a lot of security risks just there. But now there's also all of

489
00:29:42,190 --> 00:29:45,810
these additional different SaaS applications and different services that your

490
00:29:45,810 --> 00:29:47,890
end users want to do their job better.

491
00:29:48,090 --> 00:29:53,170
Well, you can conquer this mountain of security risks with 1Password Extended Access Management.

492
00:29:53,690 --> 00:29:57,210
It's a real problem over half of IT pros that were surveyed say this is one

493
00:29:57,210 --> 00:29:58,350
of their biggest challenges.

494
00:29:58,570 --> 00:30:02,350
And that's where Trellica by 1Password can help you discover and understand

495
00:30:02,350 --> 00:30:08,890
and learn about all of the apps your users are using, managed or not. Yeah, that's powerful.

496
00:30:09,150 --> 00:30:12,250
That's Trelica by 1Password. It inventories everything at your company.

497
00:30:12,390 --> 00:30:16,130
It has pre-populated app profiles, so you can kind of assess the risk right

498
00:30:16,130 --> 00:30:17,550
there in a dashboard with a report.

499
00:30:17,650 --> 00:30:23,170
It lets you manage and access who has what logins and also how you off-board

500
00:30:23,170 --> 00:30:25,150
people when that time comes.

501
00:30:25,150 --> 00:30:28,310
And then ultimately, if you need, it helps you optimize your spend so you can

502
00:30:28,310 --> 00:30:30,950
eliminate redundancies, make sure you're not spending for multiple services

503
00:30:30,950 --> 00:30:34,510
for the same thing, for the same people, and ensure that your best practices

504
00:30:34,510 --> 00:30:37,470
are being followed across every app your employees use.

505
00:30:38,190 --> 00:30:42,690
Even shadow IT, which I used to be when I was a contractor, I'd plug in, I'd get on the network.

506
00:30:42,850 --> 00:30:46,150
And the other thing I always saw companies struggle with is a secure,

507
00:30:46,650 --> 00:30:51,290
standardized process and procedure to onboard or off-board employees.

508
00:30:51,550 --> 00:30:54,250
You want to make sure you're also meeting compliance goals. That's where Trellica

509
00:30:54,250 --> 00:30:58,030
by 1Password provides a complete solution for SaaS access governance.

510
00:30:58,170 --> 00:31:02,070
And it's just one of the ways extended access management helps teams strengthen

511
00:31:02,070 --> 00:31:04,030
compliance and security.

512
00:31:04,230 --> 00:31:07,710
You know 1Password and their award-winning password manager and how important

513
00:31:07,710 --> 00:31:10,410
good password hygiene is and how they've helped millions of users and hundreds

514
00:31:10,410 --> 00:31:11,390
of thousands of businesses.

515
00:31:12,550 --> 00:31:16,490
Well, 1Password extended access management builds on all of that and so much

516
00:31:16,490 --> 00:31:20,570
more. They get regular third-party audits, they have the industry's largest

517
00:31:20,570 --> 00:31:23,810
bug bounty, and they exceed the standards set by various authorities.

518
00:31:24,150 --> 00:31:28,350
1Password is always taking it up a notch. So take the first step to better security

519
00:31:28,350 --> 00:31:32,290
for your team by securing credentials and protecting every application,

520
00:31:32,510 --> 00:31:34,030
even the unmanaged shadow IT.

521
00:31:34,230 --> 00:31:38,150
You need to go learn more at 1Password.com slash unplugged.

522
00:31:38,230 --> 00:31:42,770
That is the number 1Password.com slash unplugged, all lowercase.

523
00:31:43,010 --> 00:31:48,450
More information, and it's a great way to support the show. OnePassword.com slash unplugged.

524
00:31:51,587 --> 00:31:55,647
Chris, I got an itch this week, and it's to learn more about how Hypervibe is doing.

525
00:31:55,747 --> 00:32:00,007
You haven't talked about it for, I think, like two weeks now. Is this a bad sign?

526
00:32:00,007 --> 00:32:01,247
We're worried something's wrong.

527
00:32:03,207 --> 00:32:08,247
I'm doing okay. I've been biting my tongue, but some big things happened this

528
00:32:08,247 --> 00:32:09,547
week, so we're going to talk about it a little bit.

529
00:32:09,587 --> 00:32:14,267
While Wes, while we do this segment, attempts to get it running on a laptop

530
00:32:14,267 --> 00:32:21,587
live during the show. So, Wes Payne, are you ready to install Hypervibe on that laptop?

531
00:32:21,847 --> 00:32:26,887
Well, we'll see. As Jeff knows well, you have a notoriously large config.

532
00:32:27,167 --> 00:32:27,467
Yes.

533
00:32:27,867 --> 00:32:31,407
So I think we're going to see what things need to get trimmed down to make this work.

534
00:32:31,567 --> 00:32:34,767
My config highlights the best that free software has to offer.

535
00:32:35,167 --> 00:32:41,067
So there's a lot in there. So it's been a bit. Hyperland 0.51 dropped this week,

536
00:32:41,147 --> 00:32:42,727
and they added a new gesture.

537
00:32:43,007 --> 00:32:45,087
It actually completely reworked the gesture system.

538
00:32:45,447 --> 00:32:49,447
With true one-to-one trackpad gestures, you can map to fingers and modifiers

539
00:32:49,447 --> 00:32:55,927
and all kinds of cool directions, and you can now set scroll factors per device, which is really fun.

540
00:32:55,947 --> 00:32:56,607
That's nice.

541
00:32:56,607 --> 00:32:59,967
So you can dial in the mouse and you can dial in the touchpad and they don't

542
00:32:59,967 --> 00:33:01,587
have to have the same exact scroll settings.

543
00:33:01,987 --> 00:33:06,147
There was a rework on animations. I got a nice polish with smoother transitions for pop-ups.

544
00:33:06,887 --> 00:33:11,607
And screen sharing for Chrome and Firefox is fixed up a little bit with 8-bit

545
00:33:11,607 --> 00:33:12,707
color, so it's a little bit faster.

546
00:33:13,347 --> 00:33:19,067
So I had to incorporate all of this into Hypervibe. And I had to fix up some deprecated configs.

547
00:33:19,127 --> 00:33:21,447
I had to go in and change a few things around the new gesture system.

548
00:33:22,527 --> 00:33:29,387
I got all that refactored. But the thing that was big is I also have a new shared

549
00:33:29,387 --> 00:33:32,267
module stack. So all my hosts now have a consistent base.

550
00:33:33,027 --> 00:33:36,827
And then I have independent configs for each host. And then I've cleaned things

551
00:33:36,827 --> 00:33:40,127
up to make builds go faster. Like I removed WebGTK.

552
00:33:40,587 --> 00:33:42,267
Yeah, I wonder if you didn't push that yet.

553
00:33:42,267 --> 00:33:43,847
Because oh maybe not i'm.

554
00:33:43,847 --> 00:33:44,747
Having to do that right.

555
00:33:44,747 --> 00:33:46,987
Now you're going to be building webg yeah i'm removing.

556
00:33:46,987 --> 00:33:49,067
A bunch i think i i think i got it gone.

557
00:33:49,067 --> 00:33:53,147
Yeah you're not going to want that it takes forever to build and it's telegram

558
00:33:53,147 --> 00:33:57,687
and folate they pull it in and telegram you can just install as a flat pack

559
00:33:57,687 --> 00:34:02,447
so i i guess in the config i haven't committed yet i pulled out telegram as

560
00:34:02,447 --> 00:34:03,427
a package and now it's making.

561
00:34:03,427 --> 00:34:04,307
It harder for me.

562
00:34:04,307 --> 00:34:07,187
I know i'm sorry i also now have fixed

563
00:34:07,187 --> 00:34:09,927
auto updates i had this ridiculous bug where auto updates were

564
00:34:09,927 --> 00:34:12,607
building the wrong version so now

565
00:34:12,607 --> 00:34:15,747
they're locked to my repos flake so the system only

566
00:34:15,747 --> 00:34:18,487
builds against known good configs i overhauled i

567
00:34:18,487 --> 00:34:21,987
overhauled the way bar the clock is cleaner supports multiple time zones in

568
00:34:21,987 --> 00:34:26,227
the drop down now now and some systems people are having problems with the emojis

569
00:34:26,227 --> 00:34:30,907
so i simplified that i also have set up better device rules so android phones

570
00:34:30,907 --> 00:34:34,787
and a lot of usb gear just works without warnings you just plug it in and you

571
00:34:34,787 --> 00:34:36,827
should be able to access your usb device or like your android,

572
00:34:38,261 --> 00:34:43,341
I've moved to Kitty, and I've moved to NerdFonts, and that all looks really nice now.

573
00:34:43,821 --> 00:34:46,901
And I've installed Cursor. I'm playing around with the Cursor editor,

574
00:34:48,021 --> 00:34:51,061
and it should be able to edit the files it needs to edit and things like that.

575
00:34:51,141 --> 00:34:56,261
But all in all, new features, lots of tuning. It is all there.

576
00:34:56,361 --> 00:35:00,941
The new version of Hyperland has launched, and Hypervibe, my distro on Nix,

577
00:35:01,201 --> 00:35:05,441
has taken full advantage of all of them. It's looking real beautiful.

578
00:35:06,141 --> 00:35:09,081
In fact, I was telling Brent before the show that I like the setup so much that

579
00:35:09,081 --> 00:35:14,901
I'm working from home more just because with an ultra-wide screen and the tiling

580
00:35:14,901 --> 00:35:19,341
window manager, I can achieve a lot of the productivity I feel like I get with multiple monitors.

581
00:35:20,001 --> 00:35:23,401
I don't think it's a one-to-one, but it's pretty close.

582
00:35:24,861 --> 00:35:29,461
And it's great for work and it's great for gaming because I have GameScope and

583
00:35:29,461 --> 00:35:30,421
GameMode and all that stuff.

584
00:35:30,481 --> 00:35:33,361
So when you launch games, it's a full, ready-to-go gaming system.

585
00:35:33,901 --> 00:35:38,981
And when you want to work, it's really nice. and I've got key combinations that

586
00:35:38,981 --> 00:35:42,321
launch groups of applications and position them where I need them and all of it.

587
00:35:42,421 --> 00:35:46,221
It's just, I've been very happy. And I think it's going to be hard to go back

588
00:35:46,221 --> 00:35:47,741
to a non-tiling workflow.

589
00:35:48,001 --> 00:35:49,181
Well, why do you need to?

590
00:35:49,361 --> 00:35:54,221
I don't know. I don't know why you ever would. I don't know why you ever would. Okay, Wes Payne.

591
00:35:55,941 --> 00:35:57,661
I might be ready to try.

592
00:35:58,101 --> 00:36:02,101
No way, really? You got around WebGTK that quick? You stripped her down, didn't you?

593
00:36:02,521 --> 00:36:07,001
I did. I did notice you have a few a bit of duplication in here that.

594
00:36:07,001 --> 00:36:07,681
Is the old config.

595
00:36:07,681 --> 00:36:09,101
Yes because.

596
00:36:09,101 --> 00:36:10,861
I did actually go through and remove some of the dupes.

597
00:36:10,861 --> 00:36:14,481
Because I was like why do I have to remove element a couple of different times

598
00:36:14,481 --> 00:36:19,061
yeah that's me you had some old plasma 5 packages that had to get removed yeah.

599
00:36:19,061 --> 00:36:20,421
That is the old I'm sorry,

600
00:36:23,077 --> 00:36:29,137
No, I need what I know. No, this is whole. I wanted him to review what I got wrong.

601
00:36:29,377 --> 00:36:33,617
And problem is, is that I do kind of like batch commits.

602
00:36:34,417 --> 00:36:37,177
So I've changed a lot of things. And then I do one commit. And I just try to

603
00:36:37,177 --> 00:36:38,257
put all my changes in that commit.

604
00:36:39,197 --> 00:36:41,017
Because otherwise, I'd be committing stuff all the time.

605
00:36:41,717 --> 00:36:46,737
Well, Chris, there's a good way to use Git and a less good way to use Git. Just saying.

606
00:36:47,317 --> 00:36:47,957
Tell me more.

607
00:36:48,857 --> 00:36:50,297
Or Wes will tell you after the show.

608
00:36:50,377 --> 00:36:54,377
Am I using it wrong? Am I getting wrong, boys? I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

609
00:36:54,957 --> 00:36:58,157
That you're getting at all is a huge success. So please don't stop.

610
00:36:59,877 --> 00:37:04,297
Speaking of Git, we thought it'd be fun to kind of what Wes is doing with my

611
00:37:04,297 --> 00:37:05,817
Hypervibe config right now.

612
00:37:06,477 --> 00:37:09,677
Let's do for anybody. I wonder if we couldn't even make an episode out of it.

613
00:37:09,757 --> 00:37:13,397
So we want, once again, we're putting the call out for you to send us your configs.

614
00:37:13,537 --> 00:37:17,637
But we want to do it a little differently this time. We'll take a look at them.

615
00:37:18,237 --> 00:37:21,697
We'll call out what you got good. I love that part. We'll even call out if we're

616
00:37:21,697 --> 00:37:22,717
copying anything you've got.

617
00:37:22,997 --> 00:37:26,377
And we'll call out the bad. So it's like, you know, it's all out there.

618
00:37:27,057 --> 00:37:30,837
And we may suggest a few improvements. And we want to be able to actually commit

619
00:37:30,837 --> 00:37:34,817
those improvements back. So we're going to put a link in the show notes for people to submit.

620
00:37:35,037 --> 00:37:37,377
Have we decided the best way for them to send it to us?

621
00:37:38,077 --> 00:37:41,017
I think however they, you know, send a boost email.

622
00:37:41,517 --> 00:37:44,777
No, no. I mean, like, we need it somewhere where we can get it.

623
00:37:44,797 --> 00:37:46,537
I think we'll just have to fork as we go.

624
00:37:46,817 --> 00:37:49,917
Okay. So just put it somewhere where you can link it to us. So send it in as

625
00:37:49,917 --> 00:37:53,437
a boost or send an email and link it to us, and then we'll grab it.

626
00:37:53,957 --> 00:37:57,037
That'll work. That'll work. And we want your Nix configs.

627
00:37:57,117 --> 00:38:00,137
And then maybe we'll put together like a list of the ones that we receive or

628
00:38:00,137 --> 00:38:01,757
something and then link out to them.

629
00:38:01,817 --> 00:38:04,657
Is there any other configs we want people to send in besides Nix configs that

630
00:38:04,657 --> 00:38:07,697
we want to look at? I mean, I just love config setups.

631
00:38:08,977 --> 00:38:10,657
Sweet Ansible setups. That's fine, too.

632
00:38:10,737 --> 00:38:16,157
I'd be down for that. Yeah. So boost them in with a link or email them in so we can take a look.

633
00:38:17,817 --> 00:38:19,297
and tell you what we think of them.

634
00:38:19,477 --> 00:38:22,577
You know, if you got like a real dope Docker composed yam, we'll send that in.

635
00:38:22,857 --> 00:38:24,657
Apparently we got a Hyperland guy here.

636
00:38:25,117 --> 00:38:28,317
Hey-o. Okay, West Payne. So we're going to let you keep going.

637
00:38:28,757 --> 00:38:30,597
We'll give you through the next segment.

638
00:38:31,437 --> 00:38:35,157
We're going into the last half of the show. So you've got a little bit over there.

639
00:38:36,717 --> 00:38:41,077
We'll see how it goes. So ladies and gentlemen, stand by why West Payne tries

640
00:38:41,077 --> 00:38:45,557
to build Hypervibe on a laptop that's old and slow. yeah.

641
00:38:45,557 --> 00:38:50,057
We do have we are doing a little bit of finishing building hyperland so there's that going on.

642
00:38:50,057 --> 00:38:53,037
Uh-huh yeah so that's always it's always pulling in the absolute latest

643
00:38:53,037 --> 00:38:58,537
i it's one of the funny things actually was i knew about the new gesture stuff

644
00:38:58,537 --> 00:39:02,777
before uh the hyperland announcement of the new release because they broke in

645
00:39:02,777 --> 00:39:07,157
my config because i'm running i'm running raw man and so i i was fixing stuff

646
00:39:07,157 --> 00:39:11,897
in line as as uh they were getting published to the hyperland repo okay,

647
00:39:13,817 --> 00:39:14,957
Keep going, Wes Payne.

648
00:39:21,083 --> 00:39:24,563
Unraid.net slash unplugged. Go unleash your hardware.

649
00:39:24,803 --> 00:39:29,423
Unraid is a powerful, easy to use NAS operating system for those of you that

650
00:39:29,423 --> 00:39:34,323
want control, flexibility, and efficiency in managing your own data.

651
00:39:34,503 --> 00:39:37,643
What you got in the closet is going to work with Unraid. It allows you to mix

652
00:39:37,643 --> 00:39:38,963
and match drives of any size.

653
00:39:39,103 --> 00:39:43,383
You can build what you want with no restrictions. There's also built-in support

654
00:39:43,383 --> 00:39:48,263
for things like tail scale and one-click remote access and easy hardware acceleration

655
00:39:48,263 --> 00:39:54,143
and a ginormous community app store that has everything in there from AlbiHub

656
00:39:54,143 --> 00:39:56,943
to the latest RAR series of things.

657
00:39:57,163 --> 00:40:00,263
And if you know what I mean, you know what I mean. Now, I got a note from Alan

658
00:40:00,263 --> 00:40:04,123
in Texas. He says, in your latest read, you mentioned you wanted to hear people

659
00:40:04,123 --> 00:40:05,023
with their Unraid setups.

660
00:40:05,163 --> 00:40:11,563
Well, I am running Unraid on a Dell PowerEdge R730XD as my home server.

661
00:40:12,123 --> 00:40:15,703
It's running a couple of VMs for Home Assistant, PFSense, and a Minecraft server

662
00:40:15,703 --> 00:40:18,743
on Ubuntu, and a couple of Linux distros to play around with.

663
00:40:19,163 --> 00:40:22,683
There are also several containers for Image, Jellyfin, Nextcloud,

664
00:40:22,843 --> 00:40:26,723
Pinchflat, Matrix, Minifold, Vault Warden, and more.

665
00:40:26,903 --> 00:40:30,783
I've been busy with work, so it needs some love. I'm not really sure if that's

666
00:40:30,783 --> 00:40:33,923
worth sharing, but if you guys want to pull the trigger on Linux Unplugged Homelab

667
00:40:33,923 --> 00:40:38,183
Extreme Makeover Podcast, I could be a prime candidate. I would love to do that, Alan.

668
00:40:38,763 --> 00:40:43,123
Thank you for sending that note in about your Unraid setup. I love hearing what people use it for.

669
00:40:43,503 --> 00:40:46,083
I'm going to check out Minifold. I know everything on that list.

670
00:40:46,143 --> 00:40:47,683
I'm not sure if I'm familiar with Minifold.

671
00:40:47,983 --> 00:40:51,803
I might check that out after the show. So go get set up with Unraid and then

672
00:40:51,803 --> 00:40:53,923
write in and tell me what you've built, what you're running.

673
00:40:54,083 --> 00:40:55,283
Could be huge, could be small.

674
00:40:55,563 --> 00:40:57,903
What really matters is that it makes a difference for you.

675
00:40:58,263 --> 00:41:02,763
Get started. Support the show. Try it for 30 days for free. Unraid's fantastic.

676
00:41:02,923 --> 00:41:05,043
Built on modern Linux. You're going to love it.

677
00:41:05,803 --> 00:41:11,003
Unraid.net slash unplugged. That's unrayed.net slash unplugged.

678
00:41:14,123 --> 00:41:18,423
Well, this week we want to do a big shout out to core contributor Pierre G.

679
00:41:18,743 --> 00:41:22,103
Thank you very much for joining the core contributor team and the party.

680
00:41:22,843 --> 00:41:27,103
Yay! I hope you get the bootleg this week. Check it out. Let us know what you think.

681
00:41:28,343 --> 00:41:32,743
At Brantley, we had a bunch of people take advantage of the fake boost link

682
00:41:32,743 --> 00:41:36,403
to support the Linux Fest trip to Texas.

683
00:41:36,403 --> 00:41:38,983
Can you remind, what the heck is a fake boost?

684
00:41:39,583 --> 00:41:45,503
Yeah, so I created a page that lets you use PayPal, Venmo, on-chain, or Lightning.

685
00:41:46,503 --> 00:41:49,263
And the reason why I'm calling it, and I'm calling it teasingly a fake boost,

686
00:41:49,423 --> 00:41:54,883
because you can put your name or a username, a handle, and a message in there, like a boost.

687
00:41:55,283 --> 00:41:59,803
It doesn't actually use the boost payments system, but it kind of replicates

688
00:41:59,803 --> 00:42:05,143
the experience of who you are, amount, and message. So it can give you.

689
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:10,240
Um, and so Jordan Bravo took advantage of it with 10,000 sats.

690
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,580
He says, have some sats for the Texas Linux fest.

691
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:16,600
I also hope you consider attending self next year. Since I live in Georgia,

692
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:19,680
self is the only Linux conference I can reasonably travel. Oh yeah.

693
00:42:19,820 --> 00:42:20,420
Yeah. It makes sense.

694
00:42:20,580 --> 00:42:23,640
We get that one. Do you want to take the next one, Mr. Payne?

695
00:42:23,740 --> 00:42:24,760
I know you're in the middle over there.

696
00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:26,280
Let me, I got to scroll up.

697
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:29,500
Oh yeah. I know. Brad and I could do it too. If you got a build to take it.

698
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:30,960
I know you're in the middle of that.

699
00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:35,100

700
00:42:35,820 --> 00:42:38,440

00:42:44,060 --> 00:42:47,460
listening and watching since the linux action show all right and i'm hopeful

703
00:42:47,460 --> 00:42:49,660
for at least another 12 years of linux.

704
00:42:49,660 --> 00:42:53,520
Unplugged yeah i love it yeah hopefully.

705
00:42:53,520 --> 00:42:56,300

709
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:14,720

710
00:43:16,500 --> 00:43:18,740
Not bad at all thank you sir.

711
00:43:18,740 --> 00:43:24,420
Blender cat says i hope to see you all at texas linux fest okay.

712

Hey, Crash Master.

00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:55,780
For Texas Linux Fest, get some good recipes from members in Austin for the lunch.

723
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:57,640
Good call. Good call.

724

Hey, wait, you can't call it that. Well, Vince P boosted in.

00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:04,980
Oh, no, that's not a boost. It's a fake boost. 200 USDs.

726
00:44:05,300 --> 00:44:05,940
Hey, 200.

727

Wow, thank you, Vince.

00:44:10,571 --> 00:44:13,171
Vince says, cheers, boys, and enjoy the fest.

Thank you. D came in with $150.

730

D says, here's some Fiat fun for the meat coma.

731
00:44:26,031 --> 00:44:27,331
Much required. Thank you.

732

Phil J comes in with a fiver. Enjoy the trip, guys. Listener since 2020.

733
00:44:34,291 --> 00:44:34,511
All right.

734
00:44:34,511 --> 00:44:35,691
Started with self-hosted.

735
00:44:35,791 --> 00:44:35,971
Yeah.

736
00:44:36,471 --> 00:44:39,231
All the best to the JB team. Looking forward to hearing your coverage.

737
00:44:39,231 --> 00:44:40,771
Cheers from Switzerland.

738
00:44:41,111 --> 00:44:41,931
Thank you, Phil.

739
00:44:42,211 --> 00:44:42,631
Wonderful.

740
00:44:43,031 --> 00:44:44,691
We will do you proud.

741
00:44:45,131 --> 00:44:49,271
I've never heard of this guy. Carl George, a.k.a. Mr. Pocket Meat,

742
00:44:50,031 --> 00:44:51,971
fake boosted in a little 50.

743
00:44:53,091 --> 00:44:53,531
Nice.

744
00:44:54,011 --> 00:44:55,671
50 for the group. This isn't looking great.

745
00:44:55,811 --> 00:44:58,031
It says nothing but barbecue. That's how you know it's Carl.

746
00:44:58,091 --> 00:44:59,451
Three letters. BBQ.

747
00:44:59,731 --> 00:45:00,371
Barbecue, yeah.

748
00:45:00,831 --> 00:45:02,231
I think this counts as pocket meat.

749
00:45:03,571 --> 00:45:04,971
Uh-oh, Wes Payne. What is it?

750
00:45:05,971 --> 00:45:07,711
Failed to start display manager.

751
00:45:08,251 --> 00:45:09,271
You don't need that.

752
00:45:10,671 --> 00:45:15,091
What? Why? It is, it may be geared up for- We started our.

753
00:45:15,091 --> 00:45:16,491
Power top tuning, so that's good.

754
00:45:16,491 --> 00:45:20,711
I guess all my systems are AMD. Maybe that's, hmm. Oh, that's a bummer.

755
00:45:21,231 --> 00:45:24,851
That's a bummer. The Hypervibe fail. Well, you could keep poking at it, I suppose.

756
00:45:25,911 --> 00:45:28,811
I'll take Noah here. Noah came in with $5.

757
00:45:30,391 --> 00:45:32,691
Thanks for all the great content over the years. Safe travels.

758
00:45:32,931 --> 00:45:33,931
Thank you, Noah. Appreciate it.

759
00:45:33,991 --> 00:45:38,471
Oh, good. Postgres is running, so that worked. oh good yeah it's ready to run

760
00:45:38,471 --> 00:45:40,391
as a server not so much as a desktop.

761
00:45:42,371 --> 00:45:43,311
Isn't that the intention.

762
00:45:43,311 --> 00:45:46,131
Oh man Donnie came in with $200,

763
00:45:51,565 --> 00:45:54,525
Keep up the great work and event coverage. Thanks for setting up this payment

764
00:45:54,525 --> 00:45:55,865
method for the lazy folks like me.

765
00:45:56,745 --> 00:45:58,165
Thanks, Donnie. We still love you.

766
00:45:58,545 --> 00:45:59,525
Yeah, I appreciate it.

767
00:45:59,765 --> 00:46:04,165
Well, Brandon R. sent us one of those fake bees of 20 US dollars.

768
00:46:05,365 --> 00:46:05,805
Nice.

769
00:46:06,285 --> 00:46:08,585
Have fun in Texas and enjoy the barbecue.

770
00:46:09,065 --> 00:46:12,205
We will. Thank you very much. Appreciate that.

771
00:46:12,845 --> 00:46:16,625
Joseph B. came in with 20 bucks. Finally, I can send some money without having

772
00:46:16,625 --> 00:46:18,825
to buy Bitcoin. I bet. Yeah.

773
00:46:19,685 --> 00:46:21,985
I thought that might be appealing to some of you out there.

774
00:46:22,245 --> 00:46:23,245
We still love you.

775
00:46:23,545 --> 00:46:24,205
Thank you, Joseph.

776
00:46:25,325 --> 00:46:27,585
Well, Sunbake sent us 40 US dollars.

777
00:46:28,425 --> 00:46:28,865
Nice.

778
00:46:29,705 --> 00:46:35,385
Some for the trip. Here's some help from the other WA, Western Australia.

779
00:46:35,805 --> 00:46:39,465
We're three times bigger than Texas, but have many times less Linux vests.

780
00:46:39,785 --> 00:46:41,245
Looking forward to hearing all about it.

781
00:46:41,625 --> 00:46:45,765
Can I just say how awesome the international support is to get us to go cover a Texas Linux event?

782
00:46:45,865 --> 00:46:46,225
No kidding.

783
00:46:46,225 --> 00:46:49,665
I really, really, really appreciate that. Thank you, Sunbaked.

784
00:46:50,305 --> 00:46:52,085
David H. comes in with $100.

785
00:46:52,545 --> 00:46:53,205
All right.

786
00:46:54,205 --> 00:46:57,545
I've gotten much more than this amount in value from you folks and look forward

787
00:46:57,545 --> 00:47:02,005
to the continued great work. I was also lucky to attend the 600 meetup sometime ago.

788
00:47:02,325 --> 00:47:04,445
Have a great trip, David, in Burlington.

789
00:47:04,725 --> 00:47:05,905
Well, thank you, David.

790
00:47:06,245 --> 00:47:07,905
From around the world to right around the corner.

791
00:47:08,065 --> 00:47:13,105
Yeah, really. No kidding. All right. So our total of fake booths so far,

792
00:47:13,105 --> 00:47:19,205
this is the grand total for the last two weeks, is $1,245.

793
00:47:20,225 --> 00:47:23,205
Hmm. That's like the combination I have on my luggage.

794
00:47:24,325 --> 00:47:29,205
You're right. I didn't even notice that. That's pretty interesting. Pretty close.

795
00:47:29,785 --> 00:47:35,425
That is darn near almost exactly in the range of what the VRBO is probably going to cost us.

796
00:47:35,585 --> 00:47:40,905
We found some that are probably about in the 10 to 15 minute range drive. I will warn you boys.

797
00:47:41,745 --> 00:47:45,085
It is nothing fancy. so i'm staying.

798
00:47:45,085 --> 00:47:46,145
In the van is that what you're saying.

799
00:47:46,145 --> 00:47:49,225
Maybe i mean it's it's serviceable it's got bedrooms

800
00:47:49,225 --> 00:47:52,105
um but it's not but we're all we need we're going for

801
00:47:52,105 --> 00:47:56,225
budget and with this we're going to be able to secure the vrbo weeks before

802
00:47:56,225 --> 00:48:00,465
we head down so thank you everyone that is a major cost that has been solved

803
00:48:00,465 --> 00:48:04,885
uh we still have gas we have hotel on the way down and probably on the way back

804
00:48:04,885 --> 00:48:08,785
and any meetup related costs that we are still fundraising for but this is a

805
00:48:08,785 --> 00:48:10,325
huge milestone and for the trip support,

806
00:48:10,445 --> 00:48:13,325
we at least know we can secure a place to land.

807
00:48:13,685 --> 00:48:16,545
If we can knock out a few more of those expenses with the boost,

808
00:48:16,785 --> 00:48:20,945
that would be fantastic, but we really appreciate everybody that sent in the fake boost.

809
00:48:21,085 --> 00:48:23,545
If you want to do that, we still have the links in the show notes.

810
00:48:23,725 --> 00:48:27,845
It will still be available. It automatically gets tagged for Texas Linux Fest,

811
00:48:27,885 --> 00:48:30,905
and you get to put your name and a message on it.

812
00:48:31,025 --> 00:48:34,645
Thank you, everybody, who sent in a fake boost, and now let's get to the boost.

813
00:48:39,625 --> 00:48:47,905
And how about this? Adversary 17 is our baller booster this week with 256,000 sets.

814
00:48:48,145 --> 00:48:48,765
Wow.

815
00:48:59,553 --> 00:49:03,993
Adversaries write sats for the Texas trip. Well, thank you, adversaries.

816
00:49:04,133 --> 00:49:05,153
We really appreciate that.

817
00:49:05,353 --> 00:49:13,193
That is a fantastic boost, and that is going right to the trip budget. To Texas we go, boys.

818
00:49:14,233 --> 00:49:17,733
I like that you have stuff in here that, I don't know if you were yelling at

819
00:49:17,733 --> 00:49:23,733
the machine or what, but it has stuff, and it just says, preserving your existing config in all caps.

820
00:49:25,953 --> 00:49:29,113
I had to make it clear. I had to make it really clear.

821
00:49:31,913 --> 00:49:40,593
Well KRHill94 boosted in real clear With a hundred thousand cents Short and

822
00:49:40,593 --> 00:49:46,373
sweet For Texas Linux Fest Heck yeah We appreciate it Thank.

823
00:49:46,373 --> 00:49:50,353
You 94 Really appreciate that That's great Right to the fund it goes.

824
00:49:51,253 --> 00:49:57,353
Well we got a Padre here Sending in 71,282 Satoshis Okie dokie,

825
00:50:02,213 --> 00:50:06,373
here is a linux fast boost from a first-time booster hey.

826
00:50:06,373 --> 00:50:10,273
Oh thank you for getting it all set up appreciate that effort too.

827
00:50:10,273 --> 00:50:14,673
I started my dev journey on the lamp stack but life took a different direction

828
00:50:14,673 --> 00:50:21,033
i became a catholic priest about 20 years ago i came across jb by way of self-hosted

829
00:50:21,033 --> 00:50:26,913
which gave me an outlet to reignite my love of devops so naturally now i run

830
00:50:26,913 --> 00:50:30,253
a ramshackle home lab on half a dozen old PCs and Macs.

831
00:50:30,373 --> 00:50:34,933
Half of my church's IT needs are on top of NixOS, thanks to Chris and the Badger.

832
00:50:35,113 --> 00:50:39,353
I don't spend a lot of time on Linux, but I do love the show and the network.

833
00:50:39,713 --> 00:50:44,973
Prayers for a safe journey to Texas Linux Fest and thanks for the hard work on that old JB.

834
00:50:45,933 --> 00:50:50,773
P.S. The total of these boots should be a zip code, but only time will tell.

835
00:50:51,013 --> 00:50:55,953
Thank you, Padre. That is a great boost. I love to hear that NixOS has creeped

836
00:50:55,953 --> 00:50:58,993
in and brace yourself Wes because actually,

837
00:51:04,289 --> 00:51:08,709
All right, so this is the total of this boost should be a zip code,

838
00:51:08,829 --> 00:51:12,249
but only time will tell. What does that mean?

839
00:51:12,469 --> 00:51:14,089
I feel like it's a riddle.

840
00:51:14,649 --> 00:51:17,509
All right, and then you just spin the map around, you put your lucky finger

841
00:51:17,509 --> 00:51:21,329
down, and you land on Tallulah, Louisiana.

842
00:51:21,929 --> 00:51:23,849
Louisiana? Tallulah?

843
00:51:24,369 --> 00:51:28,869
I don't know if that's if I'm saying it right, but T-A-L-L-U-L-A-H.

844
00:51:28,989 --> 00:51:29,829
That's fantastic.

845
00:51:30,389 --> 00:51:31,729
In Madison Parish.

846
00:51:31,889 --> 00:51:33,789
Will I be driving through there to get to Texas?

847
00:51:34,369 --> 00:51:37,849
I don't know. Take a look at the map, Brent. We just had it out.

848
00:51:38,029 --> 00:51:40,949
Can you unfold it a bit more? You're kind of hiding the section I need.

849
00:51:41,369 --> 00:51:44,169
We were going to ask you what your route was, but you're asking us.

850
00:51:44,209 --> 00:51:45,769
I know. This is not how this works.

851
00:51:46,469 --> 00:51:48,429
Boosting what you think my route should be. Thank you.

852
00:51:49,309 --> 00:51:53,889
He doesn't know. Biggles knows. He came in with 50,000 sats.

853
00:51:56,109 --> 00:51:59,189
Thank you, sir. Looking forward to the Texas Linux Fest coverage.

854
00:51:59,529 --> 00:52:04,189
Here is my small contribution. Not small at all. We really appreciate any value people can contribute.

855
00:52:05,729 --> 00:52:08,949
it is extremely humbling and,

856
00:52:09,889 --> 00:52:12,729
comforting isn't the right word but to know

857
00:52:12,729 --> 00:52:16,609
that the Linux audience that chooses to listen to our podcast at least has our

858
00:52:16,609 --> 00:52:20,049
back you know like there's a community behind us we're going to go down there

859
00:52:20,049 --> 00:52:22,889
and we've been doing this for a long time so you know we're going to deliver

860
00:52:22,889 --> 00:52:26,109
right you know we're going to do it you know we're going to try to have a good

861
00:52:26,109 --> 00:52:29,929
time too and we're going to try to get you great coverage and come back with a solid episode

862
00:52:30,349 --> 00:52:34,789
so any amount people can contribute is really appreciated thank you Thank you for the boost pickles.

863
00:52:35,609 --> 00:52:39,929
Chlorophore comes in with 47,180 sats.

864
00:52:43,649 --> 00:52:49,649
This is a live zip code boost Westpain. So you're doing double duty right now.

865
00:52:52,489 --> 00:52:58,649
He said, I agree. I hadn't heard one for a while. So here is a zip code boost. It's 47180.

866
00:52:59,729 --> 00:53:06,449
Oh, here comes the map again. Going from hyperbuild to map Like a machine Is.

867
00:53:06,449 --> 00:53:07,269
That a hypermap?

868
00:53:08,329 --> 00:53:11,789
Okay, what do we got here? We got 50,000?

869
00:53:12,129 --> 00:53:16,389
4-7-1-8-0 4-7-1-8-0 Oh, I see.

870
00:53:16,529 --> 00:53:18,289
I was one back Yeah, there we go,

871
00:53:19,457 --> 00:53:21,257
That explains why I was in the water.

872
00:53:21,397 --> 00:53:24,917
Yeah, you're way off on the map. That's right. I think you got to go over there. There you go.

873
00:53:25,777 --> 00:53:26,957
Not next to the oil rig.

874
00:53:27,097 --> 00:53:27,457
Ah, careful.

875
00:53:27,677 --> 00:53:30,037
It might be metric too, Wes, just in case.

876
00:53:30,457 --> 00:53:34,797
Ooh, I hope not. Metric zip codes are hard. You got to do the conversion.

877
00:53:35,097 --> 00:53:35,877
Is it in progress?

878
00:53:36,477 --> 00:53:40,337
I think there's a hint here. It is, yeah. The pause. What is this last bit here,

879
00:53:40,417 --> 00:53:42,477
Brent? You need to read that. The pause.

880
00:53:43,337 --> 00:53:46,797
I would prefer if you read it, but you know, if you really need me to. You sure?

881
00:53:46,837 --> 00:53:47,797
Go ahead. Yeah, go ahead.

882
00:53:50,597 --> 00:53:56,717
Pozdrowinia poloski this is i think polish i have a teeny tiny bit in my old

883
00:53:56,717 --> 00:54:00,057
roots but i i don't got the language i apologize for everything i just did.

884
00:54:04,457 --> 00:54:07,017
How's the zip code uh search going over there west not so good yeah.

885
00:54:08,397 --> 00:54:11,957
There is a 47-180.

886
00:54:11,957 --> 00:54:14,917
In poland oh okay i think.

887
00:54:14,917 --> 00:54:15,557
I think you're i.

888
00:54:15,557 --> 00:54:17,397
Don't know if this is right though I.

889
00:54:17,397 --> 00:54:20,797
Think you're over the target, at least. Thank you. Appreciate it,

890
00:54:20,877 --> 00:54:22,677
Chlorophore. You've kind of stumped us, but I think we're close.

891
00:54:22,837 --> 00:54:25,217
Yeah, I'm going to have to do some more research and maybe get a bigger map.

892
00:54:25,757 --> 00:54:29,497
Damn, comes in with 43,100 sats.

893
00:54:30,317 --> 00:54:36,517
Thank you. First time booster. Yes. Thank you. Long time party member.

894
00:54:36,717 --> 00:54:37,577
Oh, my goodness. Thank you.

895
00:54:38,777 --> 00:54:44,037
I use Linux every day as a visual effects artist working mostly on TV commercials. What?

896
00:54:44,197 --> 00:54:44,497
Neat.

897
00:54:44,937 --> 00:54:48,797
We need to know more about this. I got my start by accidentally wiping the family

898
00:54:48,797 --> 00:54:51,157
PC with RHEL 2.1 in high school been.

899
00:54:51,157 --> 00:54:52,857
There doesn't that happen to everyone.

900
00:54:52,857 --> 00:54:58,517
Man when I screwed up the family PC dad was so mad he says thanks to JBI almost

901
00:54:58,517 --> 00:55:04,497
all my installs are now Nix OS I hope this gets a tank of gas for the Texas Linux Fest thank you sir,

902
00:55:04,957 --> 00:55:09,977
I'd love to know more about using Linux for the visual effects stuff even just

903
00:55:09,977 --> 00:55:14,957
software distros what works what doesn't work that's fascinating really appreciate

904
00:55:14,957 --> 00:55:17,737
the boost thank you for taking the time to get that all plumbed up.

905
00:55:17,737 --> 00:55:22,177
Well tomato or maybe it's tomato sends in 28 000 sets.

906
00:55:24,097 --> 00:55:25,877
There you go uh.

907
00:55:25,877 --> 00:55:29,497
This might be a haiku but i don't know my poems so here we go i

908
00:55:29,497 --> 00:55:32,577
nodes at night are big and bright deep in

909
00:55:32,577 --> 00:55:35,817
the heart of linux the h top sky is wide

910
00:55:35,817 --> 00:55:43,157
and high deep in the heart of linux fedora's whale along the trail deep in that

911
00:55:43,157 --> 00:55:49,537
heart of linux the nixies rush around the brush deep in the heart of linux these

912
00:55:49,537 --> 00:55:54,377
are some sats to help you with your trip to that old 28th state yeehaw.

913
00:55:54,377 --> 00:56:07,257
I like that thank you very much tomato nice to hear from you exocena comes in with 25 000 sats,

914
00:56:10,914 --> 00:56:15,014
Almost 10 months since my last booth. Sorry about that. But I have perfected

915
00:56:15,014 --> 00:56:18,254
my NextCloud. He calls it my NextCloud.

916
00:56:19,454 --> 00:56:23,934
With one command in the terminal, you can create a ready-to-boot SD card image

917
00:56:23,934 --> 00:56:30,234
for a Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 with NixOS and NextCloud ready to go.

918
00:56:30,554 --> 00:56:35,834
Automatic mounting of USB devices and NextCloud external storage and peer-to-peer

919
00:56:35,834 --> 00:56:37,134
remote connectivity enabled.

920
00:56:37,274 --> 00:56:43,774
You can check it out on my GitHub. up we'll put a link it is a jjack 13 or jj

921
00:56:43,774 --> 00:56:46,134
13 slash nix club we'll put a link in the show notes

922
00:56:46,574 --> 00:56:49,894
the direct p2p connection with no firewall or no ports exposed

923
00:56:49,894 --> 00:56:54,914
it'll work behind your net all you have to do is just scan a qr code you can

924
00:56:54,914 --> 00:56:59,014
also install it on your existing nix system he has a link for that too he says

925
00:56:59,014 --> 00:57:02,894
i also have a pr pending for emerging nix packages when i first tried it blew

926
00:57:02,894 --> 00:57:09,034
my mind you gotta give it a try thanks for the show keep it up that is an awesome project It.

927
00:57:09,034 --> 00:57:12,774
Looks like these peer-to-peer tunnels are from a project called Wholesale.

928
00:57:12,914 --> 00:57:18,234
Wholesale.io looks completely open source, free for some P2P good action.

929
00:57:18,514 --> 00:57:19,254
I should give this a look.

930
00:57:19,634 --> 00:57:22,474
Thanks for letting us know, and thank you for the boost. We'll put those links

931
00:57:22,474 --> 00:57:24,394
in the show notes if people want to check them out.

932
00:57:25,614 --> 00:57:27,994
Augustine boosts in with 20,000 sets.

933
00:57:28,154 --> 00:57:28,554
Hey-o!

934
00:57:31,994 --> 00:57:36,434
My summer vacay started with the mother-in-law's dog sitting on the Ethernet

935
00:57:36,434 --> 00:57:39,154
cable that's plugged into the ISP's little fiber box.

936
00:57:39,294 --> 00:57:39,414
No.

937
00:57:39,574 --> 00:57:40,594
Completely wrecking it.

938
00:57:40,714 --> 00:57:44,234
Oh. That was bad placement, I just gotta say.

939
00:57:44,474 --> 00:57:49,694
So we were cut off from the outside world for two weeks. The ISP was not quick in fixing it.

940
00:57:49,774 --> 00:57:50,634
Oh, that's so frustrating.

941
00:57:50,894 --> 00:57:51,214
That's ouch, yeah.

942
00:57:51,214 --> 00:57:51,674
Oh, man.

943
00:57:52,034 --> 00:57:56,614
This, however, showed self-hosting's true colors. We could still watch shows,

944
00:57:56,774 --> 00:57:58,834
movies, and listen to music from Jellyfin.

945
00:57:58,974 --> 00:58:02,534
And I could listen to audiobooks as well as catching up on Linux Unplugged episodes

946
00:58:02,534 --> 00:58:04,554
that I downloaded with Audio Bookshelf.

947
00:58:04,654 --> 00:58:05,414
That's so great.

948
00:58:05,414 --> 00:58:07,954
It feels as one is cheating the system.

949
00:58:08,034 --> 00:58:10,154
I totally agree with that.

950
00:58:10,274 --> 00:58:14,094
Even though I do think this is how the system and tech and services should work.

951
00:58:14,194 --> 00:58:14,514
Yes.

952
00:58:14,714 --> 00:58:16,394
Here's some sets for the road.

953
00:58:16,894 --> 00:58:21,354
Thank you, Augustin. That's really great. Boy, you and I are locked in on that vibe.

954
00:58:21,374 --> 00:58:25,694
Let me tell you, it's so great, especially when you're offline and it's still

955
00:58:25,694 --> 00:58:26,894
working. It's just, whoo.

956
00:58:27,354 --> 00:58:31,614
It's how technology should be, but it ain't always that way. Appreciate the boost.

957
00:58:32,334 --> 00:58:36,954
I just want to take a moment here to pause and say that was all of our baller boosts.

958
00:58:37,014 --> 00:58:41,394
We haven't even gotten to the slightly less baller boosters, so thank you, everyone.

959
00:58:42,954 --> 00:58:47,514
Now, SatStacker7 did send in two boosts for a total of 7,000 sats.

960
00:58:51,428 --> 00:58:56,308
Hey, it's me, the user who pinged Wes about using Mesh Sidecar with Paperless

961
00:58:56,308 --> 00:58:59,388
Module and apparently triggered last week's Paperless Deep Dive.

962
00:58:59,708 --> 00:59:00,908
Yep, it's your fault.

963
00:59:01,088 --> 00:59:04,528
I am glad to hear you tried it and liked it as much as I do.

964
00:59:04,848 --> 00:59:10,648
I paired it with the old ScanSnap iX1500 duplex scanner and connected it over

965
00:59:10,648 --> 00:59:12,888
USB to the machine where Paperless is running.

966
00:59:13,748 --> 00:59:16,988
I can recommend the Sane project for scanning on Linux combined with the command

967
00:59:16,988 --> 00:59:22,788
line tool Sane Scan PDF that acts as a wrapper and lets you configure scan jobs.

968
00:59:23,088 --> 00:59:27,508
I've heard it works really well. I mean, ultimately, you just need to get that

969
00:59:27,508 --> 00:59:28,948
PDF into the consume folder.

970
00:59:29,208 --> 00:59:34,248
And so you can do that with any old scanner that can out. It doesn't have to

971
00:59:34,248 --> 00:59:36,128
be a PDF, but I think that's probably the preferred format.

972
00:59:36,348 --> 00:59:43,568
But what I love about this setup is with Sane PDF, All your scans go to PDF.

973
00:59:43,748 --> 00:59:44,668
It just produces that PDF.

974
00:59:44,888 --> 00:59:48,228
You could have it go scan directly to the consume folder, which is probably

975
00:59:48,228 --> 00:59:50,628
what SatStacker is doing, and then it just gets imported.

976
00:59:51,408 --> 00:59:55,808
That's pretty nice. All right, so again, that was the SnapScan IX1500 duplex scanner.

977
00:59:56,308 --> 00:59:58,728
Getting tips from the pro. I like it. Thank you.

978
00:59:58,868 --> 01:00:02,928
Yeah, I appreciate that. Okay, Groovy came in with 2,000 sats.

979
01:00:04,168 --> 01:00:07,328
No mess is just value, which we always appreciate. Thank you very much.

980
01:00:07,808 --> 01:00:11,148
Poppy Boosin with 7,832 sats.

981
01:00:12,668 --> 01:00:17,168
Uh-oh Wes guess what zip code is a better deal I love it it's.

982
01:00:17,168 --> 01:00:18,008
Just such a good deal.

983
01:00:18,008 --> 01:00:19,248
It is such a great deal,

984
01:00:22,568 --> 01:00:27,888
this is we appreciate the zip code boost we're making Wes work today he is earning

985
01:00:27,888 --> 01:00:30,808
his split that is for sure okay so we got 7.

986
01:00:30,968 --> 01:00:37,588
8, 3, 2 but first multiply by 11 so naturally Chris as you know that's 86,152.

987
01:00:37,588 --> 01:00:44,528
But then you need to add 1 for the zip code okay Sure we do I love it,

988
01:00:46,288 --> 01:00:49,128
Let's use parenthesis I don't mind holding the corner if you want me to hold

989
01:00:49,128 --> 01:00:56,988
on to that I know it's big Just hold it still Wes I don't know why I have to move it around so much.

990
01:01:00,468 --> 01:01:06,328
Alright do I got this right 7, 8, 3, 2 multiplied by 11 Plus 1 So is that 86.

991
01:01:06,328 --> 01:01:08,548
153 That's my math.

992
01:01:14,426 --> 01:01:14,966
There you go.

993
01:01:15,346 --> 01:01:18,166
Okay, well, let me double check here. We got a couple of leads.

994
01:01:18,486 --> 01:01:23,206
Oh, my God. With the math and all. Okay, what you got for me, Wes?

995
01:01:23,286 --> 01:01:26,606
What you got for me? Maybe this is a postal code in Germany?

996
01:01:27,266 --> 01:01:29,386
Augsburg? A city in the state of Bavaria.

997
01:01:29,706 --> 01:01:30,566
Oh, nice.

998
01:01:30,566 --> 01:01:34,606
That's going to be my official map guess this time around for 86153.

999
01:01:34,806 --> 01:01:37,446
Thanks, Pappy. Let us know if we got it right. That's great.

1000
01:01:39,126 --> 01:01:43,446
Doornail7887 is here with 4,444 stats. That's a big duck.

1001
01:01:44,846 --> 01:01:48,726
Texas Linux Fest, baby. Also, would you mind doing a quick tutorial on setting

1002
01:01:48,726 --> 01:01:50,206
up a small matrix server again?

1003
01:01:50,466 --> 01:01:54,886
I want to join my matrix, but of course, I want to do it the hard way and use

1004
01:01:54,886 --> 01:01:56,226
my own instead of someone else's.

1005
01:01:56,406 --> 01:02:00,546
What is the best way to do this if we don't want to make it publicly routable?

1006
01:02:00,666 --> 01:02:04,666
Is this possible, or does it need to be online for many use cases, for his use cases?

1007
01:02:05,026 --> 01:02:09,146
Well, you probably do need to be online in order to, what do they call it, Wes, when you bridge?

1008
01:02:09,226 --> 01:02:10,206
Talk to other people.

1009
01:02:12,666 --> 01:02:13,906
There's like a terminology, though.

1010
01:02:13,906 --> 01:02:14,246
Federation.

1011
01:02:14,426 --> 01:02:17,246
Yeah, when you federate, thank you, when you federate. So you will want it online,

1012
01:02:17,386 --> 01:02:18,886
but there's a lot of ways you can do that.

1013
01:02:19,546 --> 01:02:23,026
Honestly, I think home matrix servers are a really good idea if you're up for

1014
01:02:23,026 --> 01:02:26,546
the config, which is a bit of an uphill climb, but there's a couple of options

1015
01:02:26,546 --> 01:02:28,986
out there, the Ansible route being probably the most popular.

1016
01:02:29,446 --> 01:02:32,486
You can throw it on a VPS, a pretty cheap one for just a handful of users,

1017
01:02:32,546 --> 01:02:34,206
and that might be the way to do it.

1018
01:02:34,486 --> 01:02:36,166
And I think that's one of the brilliant things about Matrix.

1019
01:02:36,246 --> 01:02:38,486
We shouldn't all be reliant on matrix.org.

1020
01:02:38,946 --> 01:02:42,546
We are looking into Matrix-in-a-box type solutions to recommend to people,

1021
01:02:42,546 --> 01:02:45,346
So if anybody out there has some suggestions, obviously we are aware of the

1022
01:02:45,346 --> 01:02:49,006
Ansible solution, but that might be a bit of a lift for some folks.

1023
01:02:49,566 --> 01:02:52,386
So boost in if you, uh, if you have any suggestions for that.

1024
01:02:52,866 --> 01:02:55,966
Well, Jordan Bravo sends in a good old row of ducks.

1025
01:02:57,386 --> 01:02:57,786
Yay.

1026
01:02:58,686 --> 01:03:03,166
Uh, I thought this was an automated message, but it's not. It says no message, just value.

1027
01:03:03,546 --> 01:03:10,386
Always appreciate that. Hey, guess who's back? Aaron's here with 3,333 sats.

1028
01:03:12,600 --> 01:03:16,440
I just spent six hours troubleshooting why my games were running at two frames

1029
01:03:16,440 --> 01:03:20,380
per second after updating to the NVIDIA driver 580 on Kubuntu.

1030
01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:25,180
Turns out, you also need to update the Flatpak NVIDIA components to match the driver version.

1031
01:03:25,680 --> 01:03:29,540
Insert facepalm here. So, if any other noobs like me are running into the same

1032
01:03:29,540 --> 01:03:33,380
problem and have Steam installed through Flatpak, make sure you're running Flatpak

1033
01:03:33,380 --> 01:03:36,000
update. You can do that on the command line, just Flatpak update,

1034
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:38,340
if you've installed the new NVIDIA driver recently.

1035
01:03:38,580 --> 01:03:41,040
I'm kind of feeling like Chuck E. Cheese out here, boys.

1036
01:03:43,900 --> 01:03:50,320
Hey, Aaron, you got it working, though. That is, there are multiple layers there. It's a good tip.

1037
01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:53,140
That's also, yeah, great PSA. Thank you.

1038
01:03:54,360 --> 01:04:00,200
Hey, and even in the thanks today, we got a Texas boost from MJVC with a little

1039
01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:02,100
tiny binary boost, 1-0-1-0.

1040
01:04:02,240 --> 01:04:02,680
Awesome.

1041
01:04:03,080 --> 01:04:03,880
Sats for the trip.

1042
01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:07,080
Thank you, everybody. Thank you, everybody. Also, stream sats as you listen.

1043
01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:13,220
25 of you did that, and collectively, You stacked 31,884 sats.

1044
01:04:13,460 --> 01:04:22,000
When you combine that with our boosters, we stacked a really incredible 700,287 sats.

1045
01:04:35,369 --> 01:04:37,689
We're getting really close. I'm feeling really good about it.

1046
01:04:38,529 --> 01:04:40,929
I think we're getting, I mean, it's happening.

1047
01:04:41,089 --> 01:04:46,229
That's what I feel like. I mean, we were committed, but we can really start

1048
01:04:46,229 --> 01:04:47,949
actually doing this now. We can book places.

1049
01:04:48,189 --> 01:04:51,189
I don't know if we're fully there yet, but I just really want to say a huge

1050
01:04:51,189 --> 01:04:53,989
thank you for everybody for reaching out and doing this. Think about what we're achieving here.

1051
01:04:54,629 --> 01:04:55,949
We're doing something that traditionally

1052
01:04:55,949 --> 01:04:59,309
has been funded by commercial entities that want an exchange.

1053
01:04:59,329 --> 01:05:01,949
They want us to do something for them or cover their product while we're there,

1054
01:05:02,029 --> 01:05:05,529
whatever it might be, which sometimes is a good fit, but not always. and this time it wasn't.

1055
01:05:05,809 --> 01:05:08,049
And we're doing this now with our community and our audience.

1056
01:05:08,989 --> 01:05:12,409
And it's open source content creation at this point. It really is.

1057
01:05:12,549 --> 01:05:13,909
And we're going 12 years strong.

1058
01:05:14,149 --> 01:05:15,789
We're going to get down there. We're going to have a great time,

1059
01:05:15,909 --> 01:05:20,249
thanks to our audience, for the 12th anniversary and get us set up for another great 12 years.

1060
01:05:20,369 --> 01:05:24,329
Thank you, everybody, who supported it, either with a fake boost or a boosty boost.

1061
01:05:25,049 --> 01:05:27,829
And if you'd like to do that, you can get in on the action with Fountain FM.

1062
01:05:27,829 --> 01:05:30,329
It's probably the easiest way. Or AlbiHub.

1063
01:05:31,069 --> 01:05:32,969
And then you can just use any of the apps that support that.

1064
01:05:33,009 --> 01:05:35,749
It's also a great way to get started. And of course, a big shout out to our

1065
01:05:35,749 --> 01:05:37,929
members who are supporting us every single week.

1066
01:05:38,049 --> 01:05:40,669
You're our foundation out there. We really, really do appreciate you too.

1067
01:05:42,629 --> 01:05:45,049
Okay, how about a couple of picks before we get out of here?

1068
01:05:45,249 --> 01:05:48,089
And then we'll check in on how the old hyper build is going one last time.

1069
01:05:48,389 --> 01:05:53,749
So the first pick this week is, it's a genre now. I think it's officially safe

1070
01:05:53,749 --> 01:05:55,849
to say the lazy genre is a thing.

1071
01:05:56,069 --> 01:05:59,069
And we have a new entrance. It's Lazy SSH.

1072
01:05:59,429 --> 01:06:03,209
A terminal-based SSH manager inspired by Lazy Docker.

1073
01:06:03,789 --> 01:06:09,249
Lazy SSH is a two-week and an interactive SSH manager that sits on top of just

1074
01:06:09,249 --> 01:06:14,469
different directories for managing quite literally a fleet of SSH servers if

1075
01:06:14,469 --> 01:06:16,809
you want. I mean, I have like a handful, right?

1076
01:06:17,029 --> 01:06:19,749
A dozen maybe that I want SSH into, which is nice for.

1077
01:06:20,069 --> 01:06:23,629
So you can navigate and connect and manage and transfer files between your local

1078
01:06:23,629 --> 01:06:27,289
machine and any server that's defined in your SSH config.

1079
01:06:27,849 --> 01:06:30,829
You don't have to remember the IP addresses. You don't really have to worry

1080
01:06:30,829 --> 01:06:34,929
about SCP commands anymore. it all takes care of it with a clean, keyboard-driven TUI.

1081
01:06:36,254 --> 01:06:39,254
It's really sweet. It looks really good. And it's got fuzzy search,

1082
01:06:39,394 --> 01:06:42,074
so if you kind of remember the machine's name or IP, if it's been a while.

1083
01:06:42,894 --> 01:06:46,794
One key press SSH into selected servers. You can tag servers like prod,

1084
01:06:46,994 --> 01:06:50,094
dev. You can sort by alias or last time you logged in.

1085
01:06:50,534 --> 01:06:53,314
Okay, I'll have to give this a try. It does look like quite a nice little two-way.

1086
01:06:53,454 --> 01:06:53,794
It is.

1087
01:06:53,994 --> 01:06:59,854
I like all the color highlighting and stuff too. It seems like I should have needed this years ago.

1088
01:07:00,034 --> 01:07:04,154
I'm loving the lazy. You know, we have lazy Vim. We have lazy Git.

1089
01:07:04,994 --> 01:07:10,694
we have lazy docker and now we have lazy ssh it's pretty new it's 93 percent

1090
01:07:10,694 --> 01:07:17,054
written in go and it's apache licensed so uh you can go have fun with it and

1091
01:07:17,054 --> 01:07:19,614
we'll put a link to that in the show notes for y'all you can check that out.

1092
01:07:19,614 --> 01:07:23,074
Now do you have um lazy hyper vibe because.

1093
01:07:23,074 --> 01:07:25,754
I think we might need that uh-oh okay.

1094
01:07:25,754 --> 01:07:30,034
Well i was able to figure out that well you had auto login going on.

1095
01:07:30,714 --> 01:07:31,294
Oh, really?

1096
01:07:31,454 --> 01:07:34,914
Yeah, you have GDM running, and then it does auto-logging.

1097
01:07:34,934 --> 01:07:36,514
So that must be doing, okay, yeah.

1098
01:07:36,674 --> 01:07:41,314
So I turn that off, and then, so GDM's working again. It was just core dumping before.

1099
01:07:41,914 --> 01:07:45,714
But now, when I try to log in, Hyperland core dumps.

1100
01:07:45,914 --> 01:07:50,574
Oh, man. Do you have any suspicions as to why?

1101
01:07:51,514 --> 01:07:53,274
I'm looking at the logs.

1102
01:07:55,814 --> 01:08:04,354
failed to create DRI2 screen LibGL warning Hyperland has crashed oh there's a crash report yeah.

1103
01:08:04,354 --> 01:08:09,694
I wonder if you're it's interesting I wonder which base config it uses when

1104
01:08:09,694 --> 01:08:12,054
I have two different systems well we're going to play around with that I.

1105
01:08:12,054 --> 01:08:13,394
Based it on Nixstation.

1106
01:08:13,394 --> 01:08:16,554
That makes sense Nixstation has multi screens,

1107
01:08:18,834 --> 01:08:22,934
RVB is a more simpler system with only one screen,

1108
01:08:23,494 --> 01:08:26,574
picked wrong you might have you might have been there if you picked the rvb

1109
01:08:26,574 --> 01:08:30,874
route i don't know but clearly i still have more work to do and i have one more

1110
01:08:30,874 --> 01:08:36,094
pick wes actually found this one is called term dot everything term dot everything

1111
01:08:36,094 --> 01:08:41,814
is a linux command line program to run gui windows inside your terminal quality

1112
01:08:41,814 --> 01:08:44,314
of the window is limited to the number of rows and columns in your terminal,

1113
01:08:45,527 --> 01:08:49,727
But I mean it. If you've got a newer terminal like Kitty or iTerm2 or something

1114
01:08:49,727 --> 01:08:53,327
that supports some video rendering,

1115
01:08:53,587 --> 01:08:59,507
you could take your desktop applications and you can put them in the terminal.

1116
01:08:59,667 --> 01:09:01,487
Wes, I don't know how the hell you found this thing.

1117
01:09:01,587 --> 01:09:02,967
That is bonkers.

1118
01:09:03,507 --> 01:09:06,647
And how I didn't find it during our freaking terminal challenge.

1119
01:09:06,787 --> 01:09:10,127
Well, yeah, no kidding. It works on both X11 and Wayland.

1120
01:09:10,707 --> 01:09:16,447
and in the video demonstration, they show somebody taking their Firefox web

1121
01:09:16,447 --> 01:09:21,247
browser that's watching a YouTube video and pulling it into the terminal and

1122
01:09:21,247 --> 01:09:24,927
then it's being rendered by terminal characters and they're watching a video.

1123
01:09:26,987 --> 01:09:30,407
What is going on? This just completely short circuits my brain.

1124
01:09:31,187 --> 01:09:36,287
There's another screenshot here and the description is Behold as I play a video

1125
01:09:36,287 --> 01:09:41,047
game in a font, in a web browser, in a terminal transmitted over SSH with one

1126
01:09:41,047 --> 01:09:42,487
hand tied behind my back.

1127
01:09:43,187 --> 01:09:44,247
This is our kind of guy.

1128
01:09:44,607 --> 01:09:48,887
Yeah, I think it hooks in as like a Wayland renderer. Like it talks the Wayland

1129
01:09:48,887 --> 01:09:51,087
protocol, but then it uses the terminal to...

1130
01:09:51,087 --> 01:09:54,087
Right. So only certain terminals are going to support this. Kitty,

1131
01:09:54,267 --> 01:09:57,087
which comes pre-installed on Hypervibe, does support this though.

1132
01:09:57,507 --> 01:10:01,287
So, I mean, this is next level stuff.

1133
01:10:01,447 --> 01:10:05,547
This is next level stuff. Go check out the link in the show notes just so you

1134
01:10:05,547 --> 01:10:07,427
can see what the heck we're going on about right now.

1135
01:10:07,767 --> 01:10:10,787
You're not going to believe what they've been able to do with this app and it's

1136
01:10:10,787 --> 01:10:15,167
gpl3 so absolutely crazy and bonkers,

1137
01:10:15,707 --> 01:10:19,147
and worth just going and looking at the videos that they have embedded on the

1138
01:10:19,147 --> 01:10:24,187
github page even if you don't install it just go marvel friends at what is possible and uh,

1139
01:10:25,283 --> 01:10:29,583
Try it out, maybe. That's all I got. I could use a few good picks if people want to send those in.

1140
01:10:29,763 --> 01:10:32,443
If you're looking for an excuse to support our trip to Texas Linux Fest and

1141
01:10:32,443 --> 01:10:34,983
you want to include a pick in your message, I'd love to have that.

1142
01:10:35,283 --> 01:10:38,823
Of course, we're going to be wrapping up this whole getting to Texas Linux Fest,

1143
01:10:39,843 --> 01:10:42,683
essentially next Sunday. It's kind of the last one before we're hitting the road.

1144
01:10:43,443 --> 01:10:46,623
And it's getting really close, you guys. It's getting really close.

1145
01:10:46,943 --> 01:10:50,563
Also, I'll put a link to Hypervibe. It's on my GitHub. I'd love you to go check it out.

1146
01:10:50,943 --> 01:10:53,543
We'll maybe fix up some of this stuff and we'll do a new commit.

1147
01:10:54,303 --> 01:10:58,183
should probably have done a commit before we got down this route but I'd love

1148
01:10:58,183 --> 01:11:00,123
you to check it out and give me your feedback we'll have that linked in the

1149
01:11:00,123 --> 01:11:04,143
show notes and if you give KDE Linux a go we'd love to also capture that experience

1150
01:11:04,143 --> 01:11:06,083
too we will be live next week.

1151
01:11:10,103 --> 01:11:15,023
That's right make it a Tuesday on a Sunday join us 10 a.m. Pacific 1 p.m.

1154
01:11:22,563 --> 01:11:24,323
we have a couple extra benefits.

1155
01:11:25,103 --> 01:11:28,003
That's right if you want to skip right to your favorite content.
