Series 6 Episode 7 – In this episode Mark and Wayne settle in to chatting about better physical health in IT, protecting your back, distro hopping, suitable video editing and photo management software, actually just using your Linux desktop instead of continually stuck in projects, more under the hood tips and another epic Irish saying. Enjoy.

00:28 Wayne welcomes us to Series 6 Episode 7, helped along by some sound effects from Mark. While it’s lovely and calm at the moment in Bristol, it looks like the weather is taking a change, with both Bristol and Kilkishen becoming rainier and windier.

03:43 The conversation moves on to Mark’s welfare. Mark implores everyone to look after their back and do what they can to have a strong back. This leads to a conversation around exercise and what motivates us.

12:31 The guys turn the conversation back to their favourite subject, Linux. Mark tells us that he’s installed the daily image of Kubuntu after hearing for a call for testing of KDE Plasma 5.17

Wayne tells us of some support he provided a customer to install Spotify on Ubuntu MATE. He remoted in and typed sudo snap install spotify. Mark suggests the boutique as a great way to get a select amount of software on that system. Wayne goes on to talk about suggestions he made to another customer regarding photo and video editing and they were darktable and kdenlive. Mark mentions OpenShot as an alternative video editor that has received some recommendation. Wayne is going to give OpenShot a look. It comes in an handy AppImage. In response to a question from Wayne regarding Darktable, Mark erroneously talks about OpenShot rather than Shotwell, while Wayne goes on to talk about the benefits of darktable. The conversation digresses into outdoor activities and it turns out the guys like to get their fresh air from equipment fans.

32:44 The conversation turns around to /e/. Mark has bought an /e/ phone and tells us how he’s getting on with it. Wayne gives us some of the details about why /e/ is such a good option and the guys discuss the sustainability and privacy focus of the project. Mark brings into the topic the latest episode of IRL. The discussion moves onto privacy and Mark mentions UBDI, an organisation mentioned in that IRL episode.

44:42 Wayne tells us that on the recommendation of the /e/ community, he has bought a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4

48:46 Wayne tells us how great Ubuntu MATE is! It’s a great FLOSS distribution that he can do everything he wants with and it doesn’t get in the way.

50:48 The guys discuss the Turris Mox, and Mark admits that he’s not done an awful lot with it lately.

54:31 The guys discuss the latest humble bundles, including the RPG bundle, Network and Security Certification by Wiley Bundle and the Level up your Python Bundle.

58:00 Under the Hood ! Mark’s Under the Hood is systemctl reboot to reboot your machine.

Wayne’s Under the Hood is thanks to Ben yet again, and it is mankier, a site that tries to make reading man pages as convenient as possible. It’s mankier than man!

1:01:40 Irish saying “Murayea” or “as if”, as in “Facebook respects your privacy Murayea!”

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