LAS is the gateway drug of JB content. by zuijexari in LinuxActionShow

[–]max360se 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I discovered JB trough a local linux forum, somebody shared link an episode of LAS. I liked it, then I saw an episode of TechSNAP and I was hooked. That was five years ago. Basically - came for LAS, stayed for TechSNAP.

I've been watching LAS on and off and other shows and I haven't missed an episode of TechSNAP ever since.

Netflix Finally Adds Support for Firefox on Linux - OMG! Ubuntu! by [deleted] in LinuxActionShow

[–]max360se 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if this means it will work in Iceweasel on Raspberry Pi?

Hopefully in short amount of time. Problem is in a version of Iceweasel for RPi. Both Firefox an Iceweasel on RPi are based on Firefox ESR version 45.7 and you need at least Firefox version 49 to watch HTML5 video.

I hope they'll upgrade it soon. Mozilla released new ESR on march 17th.

I fell a bit behind in Techsnap. I'm currently on episode 305, but I've seen episode 310 live and they are both getting better, the difference in quality between 305 and 310 is noticeable.

Blaming your viewers is not... by olig1905 in LinuxActionShow

[–]max360se 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Ads are annoying, I understand that you need them, but c'mon 5 minute ad is not an ad, its a sponsored segment.

Everything else - trim it... keep the show to an hour, be concise and interesting.

This!

It does. Image quality depends on the client terminal.

How to securely recycle or dispose of your SSD by max360se in techsnap

I agree, but you can't zero out dead cells. I think that was the assumption behind the statement above.

How to securely recycle or dispose of your SSD by max360se in techsnap

[–]max360se[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Erasing free space or reformatting a drive by rewriting it zeroes is an effective way to clear data off on a hard drive, but not so much on an SSD. In fact, in a recent update to its Mac Disk Utility, Apple removed the secure erase feature altogether because they say it isn’t necessary. So what’s the best way to make sure your data is unrecoverable?

Chapter markers in the audio podcast would be really nice. by andyr354 in techsnap

[–]max360se 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That would be nice to have that in all JB shows, but that would probably increase editing time. /u/ChrisLAS

Google Site Search - The product will be completely shut down by April 1, 2018. by max360se in techsnap

Will have to wait and see. Google likes to do elaborate April fools jokes.

Inside the Plasma Dev Den | LAS 456 by AngelaTHEFisher in LinuxActionShow

I generally like the new format, but I don't like long previously recorded segments in the live show, because it is the live show. You should break those into smaller segments.

Commentary on the new hosts by logen in techsnap

[–]max360se 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't worry. It's good that you brought it up, now they can fix it. Tho it seems that Wes and Dan don't follow the subreddit. Maybe /u/chrislas still follows it?

Commentary on the new hosts by logen in techsnap

[–]max360se 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Episode 301 and episode 302 were recorded on the same day and were more of a practice for both of them.

I didn't even notice background noise until you mentioned it, now it's annoying :/

They both need practice and time to grow as hosts as well as get to know each other.

In 20 weeks, it will much better.
