Series 6 Episode 11 – In this episode Mark and Wayne pretty much decide that 32bit distros are not really suitable for modern computing, Wayne has been busy working with NFS, updating NextCloud, playing with OpenMediaVault, more under the hood tips and another epic Irish saying. Enjoy.

00:33 Wayne welcomes us to Series 6 Episode 11 of the Binary Times from a slightly overcast, wintry Bristol. Mark tells us it’s much the same in Kilkishen. The outlook is for more wintry weather, imagine that!

03:57 Wayne asks Mark what he’s been at. Mark makes an apology to Elive, as his inability to install Elive 3.7.16 two episodes ago was due to a faulty hard drive rather than the distro itself. This leads the conversation around to lightweight distros, old PCs and computing expectations. Mark goes on to tell us that a listener of the show wants to revitalise an old Windows XP laptop. Mark normally recommends Ubuntu MATE to new users to Linux as he feels it provides the best out of the box experience for new users. However, since the machine was quite old, he burned DVDs of Ubuntu MATE, Zorin OS, Elementary and Linux Mint. Wayne reminds us of the plop boot manager. The guys also discuss MXLinux. The general conclusion is that 32 bit computers aren’t really worth the hassle.

24:17 Wayne tells us he’s been up to quite a bit. He’s installed Ubuntu MATE on a Raspberry Pi 3b plus but found it fairly unusable.

25:03 He then goes on to tell us he’s been looking into effective sudo use using an article from Dave Mckay. He has an old HP server acting as a file server, and he wants to give his partner the access to it but only certain root privileges, the article helped him do that. The app they use on their phone to start up and shut down the server is duorem.

30:13 Wayne tells us he’s updated to NextClooud 17. It wasn’t without issues but nothing he couldn’t manage with help from the forums. The guys discuss the ease of self hosting and think NextCloud is incredible.

37:20 Wayne goes on to speak about the Sonoj convention, an annual event about music production with free and open source software. The videos of the event are now available online. Wayne gives a huge shout out to FalkTX and his presentation on the Past, Present and Future of the JACK Audio Connection Kit. He also mentions that Unfa does a premiere reveal of Matthew Tytel’s new Wavetable Synthesiser ‘Vital’.

43:59 Wayne talks about NFS and OpenMediaVault, which was not a good experience.

48:19 Under the Hood – Mark’s under the hood highlights Mozilla’s buyer’s guide and their Manifesto, of which he reads the guiding principles.

Wayne’s under the hood is an Q&A by Eben Upton, James Adams and Gordon Hollingworth answering questions about the Raspberry Pi 4.

Wayne mentions humble bundles that caught his eye, being the “Design like a designer” bundle and the “Cybersecurity 2019” bundle by Packt. Mark tells us he got Serial Cleaner for Free, an interesting cat and mouse game.

1:00:38 Irish saying of the show is “Déan deifir!” or Hurry Up!

We hope you enjoy the show as much as we did making it!
