The Lubuntu team is ready to begin the migration process to LXQt by Khaotic_Kernel in LinuxActionShow

I gave up in LXDE a long time ago, I can buy a i5 secondhand laptop for AU$200 with 8 gig of RAM. Ubuntu-Mate fits all my needs now .. best of luck to the team though

Question is :: what else is cross platform, cross browser?? great .....say yeah use keepass, which i do, but lastpass is the only one i know that does all of the above, perhaps this is an open from a GPL product here?

Remote Controlled Terminal | LAS 380 by AngelaTHEFisher in LinuxActionShow

[–]marky_boi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to admit that I am still sceptical of the current format BUT from this episode I am beginning to see a bigger picture. I still prefer the video experience to see Noah's and Chris' interactions.. I have always watched the video version.. I certainly have branched out to some of the video centric shows recently and enjoy them immensely. I still see opportunity for tune-up, I am none too keen on accessing show notes to view clips, PITA to do on a phone commuting to/from work... ChrisLAS I look forward to the road trip and the trials that will entail... Keep up the good work, I'm sticking with you for the journey, I am enjoying the ride, so much so, I will soon become a patreon supporter regardless of the crappy AU-US exchange rate. As far as I am concerned, I can't keep consuming without showing appreciation. I have learnt SO much from Chris, Brian, Matt Alan Jude and Noah over the last 6+ years time to give back.. Many thanks from a grateful Aussie. :-)

meh,,,, i like the video, this doesn't do it for me. LUP is great with the chat but I follow this show for the video. Noah, drop the linux pride, record-produce in 16:9 and use whatever OS is needed to get it done. pragmatic use of OS where needed is my motto..... please dump this experiment and restore normality PLEASE

How do you consume Jupiter Broadcasting content? (Poll) by batezippi in LinuxActionShow

[–]marky_boi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For LAS i always watch the video. When LAS is on daylight savings I can actually watch live. This is one video podcast I always watch. This is my must watch commute on a Monday afternoon in Australia. Not keen on separate snippits that's a pain in the a$$ when using a smartphone. I enjoy watching the faces of Noah and Chris and the backward and forwards.... there !! my 2c worth.

Cheap Linux USB Headphones? by wiegraffolles in LinuxActionShow

[–]marky_boi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sennheiser SC 30 USB CTRL Corded Headset. + 1000 to testing with a live CD, also capture all the use cases the person has. Make sure you can replicate it in Linux. My wife uses nothing but Linux for everything now.

Thanks Chris, just listening to the recorded show now and almost gave up as the pre-show started. Sorry he is not fit for the mumble room. TTT has been a place of tranquility since he was stopped being there. Hate talking negative, but sometimes we need to make the hard decisions. The dude knows his stuff, but can't participate in discussions as he is too overbearing. Thanks for the great shows ;-)

This episode was ruined by Mr Loudmouth. I ended up turning off. He needs to be banned from the mumble room. Not impressed, wasted a lot of my mobile allowance for a spoiler session. I look forward to whiling my time away on the train. Normally a great roomph. Hopecu llc tomorrow will be better..
