Linux Inlaws

The focus of this episode is the use of free, libre and open source software in the lovely field of home automation, a sometimes much underrated sector. Especially if you're old and cannot be bothered with heating up the pad from afar, controlling the blinds from the other side of the planet and spying on your cat trying to empty the fridge when you're not around. If that's something that sounds interesting regardless of your age, then you don't want to miss this episode. Especially if you're interested in historical aspects of home automation a few centuries ago, whether used by peasants or not. <p>Links</p> <ul><li>Google's Nest then: <a href="https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/05/nest-the-company-died-at-google-io-2019" target=_blank>https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/05/nest-the-company-died-at-google-io-2019</a></li> <li>Google's Nest recently: <a href="https://www.zdnet.com/article/google-announces-the-end-of-multiple-nest-products-heres-what-you-need-to-know" target=_blank>https://www.zdnet.com/article/google-announces-the-end-of-multiple-nest-products-heres-what-you-need-to-know</a></li> <li>Home Assistant: <a href="https://github.com/home-assistant" target=_blank>https://github.com/home-assistant</a></li> <li>OpenHAB: <a href="https://github.com/openhab" target=_blank>https://github.com/openhab</a></li> <li>Zigbee: <a href="https://csa-iot.org/all-solutions/zigbee" target=_blank>https://csa-iot.org/all-solutions/zigbee</a></li> <li>Störtebeker: <a href="https://www.stoertebeker.com/stortebeker-brauspezialitaten" target=_blank>https://www.stoertebeker.com/stortebeker-brauspezialitaten</a></li> <li>Free online course @ Carnegie Mellon University: <a href="https://oli.cmu.edu/independent-learner-courses" target=_blank>https://oli.cmu.edu/independent-learner-courses</a></li> <li>Mach project: <a href="https://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs.cmu.edu/project/mach/public/www/overview.html" target=_blank>https://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs.cmu.edu/project/mach/public/www/overview.html</a></li> </ul>

This episode is witness to a deep-dive into eBPF, the extended Berkeley Packet Filter (technical and non-technical) powered by no other than Bill Mulligan from the eBPF Foundation itself.

This episode scrutinises the use of FLOSS in one of the legacy industries (soon to be anyway) of the planet - yes, you've guessed right: cars! Or generally speaking: vehicles of all walks of life (starting with horse-drawn carriages of yonderyear, hence the episode length of just short of four hours :-).

This episode is host to Philip Kemmeter, CTO of the C24 Bank, a rapidly growing German direct banking company. Being an avid user of FLOSS code bases, Phil shares interesting insights into the use of FLOSS from a general perspective and the particular requirements deployments of such code has in this particular industry. Even if you're not working in banking this is an episode not to be missed if you're using FLOSS in commercial environments. Plus 20,000 reasons why should bank with C24 (maybe even more reasons :-) in addition to some smooth and inspiring guerrilla marketing for banks on podcasts. And even more bonus content: Bits on mobile security.

In this episode Bard and Copilot discuss a FLOSS podcast named Linux Inlaws. Hang on, no, wait. It's actually the opposite: Our two heroes discuss what two major large language models (LLMs) know and think about the format. Plus feedback from other AIs on the show. So if you ever wondered if you're alone with your opinion on Linux Inlaws, you don't want to miss this episode. Plus Martin's opinion on the king and more future bank holidays in the UK.

In this episode, Martin and Chris - always having skipped quality assurance wherever possible - host some eclectic members of the OpenQA project team for an interesting chat about Linux distributions, politics, the world in general and last but not least also quality assurance of large, complex software systems. Like Linux distributions. So if any of the above sounds interesting, you don't want to miss this episode.

In this episode our two FLOSS enthusiasts focus on free and open source software in the healthcare sector, a much debated subject as this can be close to life or death for some people. Even if you're not affected now, chances are you will be - whether that's a pace maker running on closed source software or some, in contrast, other medical device powered by a pure FLOSS stack.

In thrive for world-betterment (in addition to fostering the competition), Martin and Chris are hosts to Allen Wyma and Marc Otto-Witte, two hosts of Rustacean Station, a podcast purely dedicated to Rust. Not the iron oxide of course, but rather the programming language originating from Mozilla all those years ago that almost took the world by storm :-) but is now a vital part of ecosystems at Microsoft, Google and numerous FLOSS projects to name but a few adopters so far. Ever wanted to know more about the language, podcasting and Asia (never mind FLOSS consulting)? Then you don't want to miss this episode. Plus how to run your FLOSS conference and world-domination. Seriously!

Not mentioning the elephant in the room, Martin and Chris take a closer look the vital role FLOSS is playing in modern defence systems and as part of military technology in general. Although the topic is not for the faint-hearted, it still shows the important part of FLOSS when defending core values very close to open source software in general: liberty, democracy and freedom in general. <p>Links</p> <ul><li>OSI FLOSS definition: <a href="https://opensource.org/osd" target=_blank>https://opensource.org/osd</a></li> <li>Android Team Awareness Kit: <a href="https://tak.gov" target=_blank>https://tak.gov</a></li> <li>DARPA: <a href="https://www.darpa.mil" target=_blank>https://www.darpa.mil</a></li> <li>History of DARPA projects: <a href="https://www.darpa.mil/timeline/index" target=_blank>https://www.darpa.mil/timeline/index</a></li> <li>ARPANET: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20120915113839/http://www.darpa.mil/WorkArea/DownloadAsset.aspx?id=2554" target=_blank>https://web.archive.org/web/20120915113839/http://www.darpa.mil/WorkArea/DownloadAsset.aspx?id=2554</a></li> <li>Mil-OSS: <a href="https://mil-oss.dev" target=_blank>https://mil-oss.dev</a></li> <li>BWMESSENGER: <a href="https://element.io/matrix-in-germany/projects/bwmessenger" target=_blank>https://element.io/matrix-in-germany/projects/bwmessenger</a></li> <li>Taurus leak: <a href="https://www.theregister.com/2024/03/04/germany_confirms_russia_leak_genuine" target=_blank>https://www.theregister.com/2024/03/04/germany_confirms_russia_leak_genuine</a></li> <li>freeCodeCamp: <a href="https://www.freecodecamp.org" target=_blank>https://www.freecodecamp.org</a></li> <li>Spectral: <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2106651/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_q_spectral" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2106651/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_q_spectral</a></li> </ul>

In this episode, Martin and Chris host Bernhard Stockmann, the brain and inventor of DAVx5, the central bridge between a *DAV server and any mobile device running Android and thus in bed the Google's approach to calendars (and much more such Contacts and WebDAV). So if even if you've never wondered how to access a CalDAV server from an Android phone or table, this show is definitely for you. Plus bonus content: the recipe for your favourite Scottish national food. Pro tip for a slightly more vegan experience: replace the ox bung with tin foil and cook the mixture in an oven at 160 degrees C (320 degrees F) for about 2 hours. And don't forget to add about a gill of whiskey (approx. 150 ml) to the mixture before the final cooking stage. <p>Links</p> <ul><li>DAVx5: <a href="https://github.com/bitfireAT/davx5-ose" target=_blank>https://github.com/bitfireAT/davx5-ose</a></li> <li>Google's Kotlin announcement: <a href="https://developer.android.com/kotlin/first" target=_blank>https://developer.android.com/kotlin/first</a></li> <li>LibrePGP vs. OpenPGP: <a href="https://lwn.net/Articles/953797" target=_blank>https://lwn.net/Articles/953797</a></li> <li>CalDAV Push video: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ET6T6ZYp8k" target=_blank>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ET6T6ZYp8k</a></li> <li>The Terror: <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2708480/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2708480/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1</a></li> <li>Revolusi: <a href="https://www.amazon.de/Revolusi-Indonesia-Birth-Modern-World/dp/184792705X" target=_blank>https://www.amazon.de/Revolusi-Indonesia-Birth-Modern-World/dp/184792705X</a></li> <li>Haggis: <a href="https://www.greatbritishchefs.com/recipes/traditional-haggis-recipe" target=_blank>https://www.greatbritishchefs.com/recipes/traditional-haggis-recipe</a></li> </ul>

In this episode host Martin and Chris take a closer look at KDE, one of the leading Linux desktop environments. For this endeavour they are joined by no other than Joseph De Veaugh-Geiss, a long-standing KDE veteran, doubling as a community and project manager for a subproject of KDE Eco, concerned with the reduction of the power consumption of your favourite desktop.

In this episode our two hosts discuss the recent license change in a NoSQL data base known a the Remote Dictionary Server, aka Redis. Given the fact that this podcast probably wouldn't exist without this company never mind code base (as Martin and Chris met at this company when it was still known as Redislabs), brace yourself for a riveting trip down memory lane never mind fasten your seat belts for that ride in the Redis DeLorean when our two hosts discuss the implications never mind future of that database... <p>Links</p> <ul><li>Redis: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redis" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redis</a></li> <li>Salvatore Sanfilippo: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/salvatore-sanfilippo-b52b47249" target=_blank>https://www.linkedin.com/in/salvatore-sanfilippo-b52b47249</a></li> <li>Ofer Bengal: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ofer-bengal-4a84ba6" target=_blank>https://www.linkedin.com/in/ofer-bengal-4a84ba6</a></li> <li>Yiftach Shoolman: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/yiftachshoolman" target=_blank>https://www.linkedin.com/in/yiftachshoolman</a></li> <li>Pieter Noordhuis: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/pnoordhuis" target=_blank>https://www.linkedin.com/in/pnoordhuis</a></li> <li>Redis license promise: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20211022072546/https://redis.com/blog/redis-license-bsd-will-remain-bsd" target=_blank>https://web.archive.org/web/20211022072546/https://redis.com/blog/redis-license-bsd-will-remain-bsd</a></li> <li>GoodFORM: <a href="https://goodformcode.com" target=_blank>https://goodformcode.com</a></li> <li>Redis license change: <a href="https://redis.com/blog/redis-adopts-dual-source-available-licensing" target=_blank>https://redis.com/blog/redis-adopts-dual-source-available-licensing</a></li> <li>Redis governance after Salvatore leaving: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230530174930/https://redis.io/docs/about/governance" target=_blank>https://web.archive.org/web/20230530174930/https://redis.io/docs/about/governance</a></li> <li>Madelyn Olson leaving the steering committee: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7176350563071139840/" target=_blank>https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7176350563071139840/</a></li> <li>KeyDB: <a href="https://docs.keydb.dev" target=_blank>https://docs.keydb.dev</a></li> <li>Redict: <a href="https://codeberg.org/redict/redict" target=_blank>https://codeberg.org/redict/redict</a></li> <li>Linux Foundation Valkey Announcement: <a href="https://www.linuxfoundation.org/press/linux-foundation-launches-open-source-valkey-community" target=_blank>https://www.linuxfoundation.org/press/linux-foundation-launches-open-source-valkey-community</a></li> <li>Valkey on Github: <a href="https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey" target=_blank>https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey</a></li> <li>Simon Riggs: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/simonriggs-postgresql-edb/?originalSubdomain=uk" target=_blank>https://www.linkedin.com/in/simonriggs-postgresql-edb/?originalSubdomain=uk</a></li> <li>Get Shorty: <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113161/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_7_nm_1_q_get%2520shorty" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113161/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_7_nm_1_q_get%2520shorty</a></li> <li>Be Cool: <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0377471/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0377471/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1</a></li> </ul>

Now in its fourth year, this podcast has seen it all: The rise and demise of whole empires, the beloved competition fade into distant memory and a glorious appearance at last year's FOSDEM (Europe's biggest gathering of FLOSS enthusiasts), where actually more than five people showed up (thanks again to the ones attended on that Saturday afternoon in Ixelles - our hearts go out to you!). So it's once again time for an update of the five year plan (true to this beloved tradition going back to the olden days of communist Russia back in the last century) and how our ageing two heroes are doing on world domination, supporting the FLOSS community and recreational drugs (confined to legal ones course :-). Among other things. Such as all the gory details about Amish adult entertainment websites.

So if you are interested in Redhat Linux, CentOS.* or even Fedora, you don't want to miss this episode. Plus as bonus content: a short intro into Fedora, Redhat and CentOS.*.

We made it. If you're reading this on your podcast player, you are listening to the 100 episode of your beloved podcast called Linux Inlaws. In this bumper episode, Martin and Chris will look back at almost four years of LI history, recount the highlights (and lowlights!) and shed some light things to come for the next 100 episode. Maybe. Plus a very special greeting from an even more special BDfL (you don't want to miss this if Linux even just remotely rings a bell). <p>Links</p> <ul><li>Rust & PostgreSQL: <a href="https://github.com/sfackler/rust-postgres" target=_blank>https://github.com/sfackler/rust-postgres</a></li> <li>HPR debacle: <a href="https://archive.org/details/hpr3658" target=_blank>https://archive.org/details/hpr3658</a></li> <li>Linux Inlaws @ FOSDEM: <a href="https://archive.fosdem.org/2023/schedule/event/linux_inlaws" target=_blank>https://archive.fosdem.org/2023/schedule/event/linux_inlaws</a></li> <li>Linux Outlaws: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Outlaws" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Outlaws</a></li> <li>Dan's podcasts: <a href="https://www.danlynch.org/podcasts" target=_blank>https://www.danlynch.org/podcasts</a></li> </ul>

This episode is host to Alex Hochgarten, a venture capitalist focussing on FLOSS start-ups among other things. Even if you're not a start-up looking for cash right now, you will find this episode more than interesting as it gives an overview of the venture capital funding process apart from other black magic; the chances, risks, ins and outs of these issues and what to look out for when going after this sort of investment for your next contraband smuggling operation, drug counterfeit outfit or weapons wholesale boutique (hint: stay on the legal side to begin with). Plus juicy details about our cash position (if you're interested in that sort of thing :-). Due to some alien interference (in the literal sense, apparently Chris forgot to pay his contribution to the widows and orphans fund of a species called Vogons, normally known for their excellent taste in poetry and other fine literature), the audio quality of this episode has suffered a little bit, a circumstance for which the Inlaws would like to extend their sincerest apologies (Chris has replenished his cash stash once again so contributions to Vogons and other alien races looking for hard cold cash should be flowing without interruptions in the future). <p>Links</p> <ul><li>New Forge: <a href="https://www.newforge.de" target=_blank>https://www.newforge.de</a></li> <li>Orangery: <a href="https://www.orangery.io" target=_blank>https://www.orangery.io</a></li> <li>Instana: <a href="http://www.instana.com" target=_blank>http://www.instana.com</a></li> <li>Codecenric: <a href="https://www.codecentric.de" target=_blank>https://www.codecentric.de</a></li> <li>Morgen: <a href="https://www.morgen.so" target=_blank>https://www.morgen.so</a></li> <li>Father Ted: <a href="https://www.channel4.com/programmes/father-ted" target=_blank>https://www.channel4.com/programmes/father-ted</a></li> <li>Rick and Morty: <a href="https://www.adultswim.com/videos/rick-and-morty" target=_blank>https://www.adultswim.com/videos/rick-and-morty</a></li> </ul>

This show is all about the public sector. Yes, that money pit where all of your taxes vanish into for the greater good, mediocre services and fat pay checks for politicians. Or so it seems. But despair not, there's a silver lining at the horizon: Martin and Chris dive into the use of FLOSS in this area, shedding light on the good, the bad and the ugly. Plus: Additional juice on the only communist distribution on the planet (spoiler: yes, it does come from North Korea). <p>Links</p> <ul><li>France FLOSS adoption: <a href="https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/sites/default/files/inline-files/OSS%20Country%20Intelligence%20Report%2023_FR.pdf" target=_blank>https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/sites/default/files/inline-files/OSS%20Country%20Intelligence%20Report%2023_FR.pdf</a></li> <li>French announcement: <a href="https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/collection/open-source-observatory-osor/news/new-action-plan-open-source-french-administration" target=_blank>https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/collection/open-source-observatory-osor/news/new-action-plan-open-source-french-administration</a></li> <li>French FLOSS repo (in English): <a href="https://code.gouv.fr/public/#/repos" target=_blank>https://code.gouv.fr/public/#/repos</a></li> <li>LiMux / Munich case: <a href="https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/collection/open-source-observatory-osor/document/declaration-independence-limux-project-munich" target=_blank>https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/collection/open-source-observatory-osor/document/declaration-independence-limux-project-munich</a></li> <li>HP report on LiMux: <a href="https://jan.wildeboer.net/2013/01/that-hpmicrosoft-study-on-the-linux-migration-in-munich-hm" target=_blank>https://jan.wildeboer.net/2013/01/that-hpmicrosoft-study-on-the-linux-migration-in-munich-hm</a></li> <li>LiMux overview: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LiMux" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LiMux</a></li> <li>Open Source at schools in Baden-Württemberg (in German): <a href="https://www.baden-wuerttemberg.de/de/service/presse/pressemitteilung/pid/pilotprojekt-fuer-den-digitalen-arbeitsplatz-der-lehrkraefte-startet" target=_blank>https://www.baden-wuerttemberg.de/de/service/presse/pressemitteilung/pid/pilotprojekt-fuer-den-digitalen-arbeitsplatz-der-lehrkraefte-startet</a></li> <li>Deepin: <a href="https://www.deepin.org/en" target=_blank>https://www.deepin.org/en</a></li> <li>Red Star OS: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Star_OS" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Star_OS</a></li> <li>Nextcloud: <a href="https://github.com/nextcloud/server" target=_blank>https://github.com/nextcloud/server</a></li> <li>The Netherlands: <a href="https://www.cia.gov/the-world-factbook/countries/netherlands" target=_blank>https://www.cia.gov/the-world-factbook/countries/netherlands</a></li> <li>Predator Dark Ages: <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4171544/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_q_dark%2520ages" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4171544/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_q_dark%2520ages</a></li> </ul>

In this episode host Annika and Werner from Tuxedo, a German PC vendor that ships their systems with a pure FLOSS stack installed instead of proprietary software.

In this Halloween special Martin and Chris discuss the scariest moments and people in FLOSS history. No project, person or concept is safe from these in-depth revelations so don't miss this episode. Plus - as it's custom at this time of year - the Dark Side Tech Support makes another appearance when a lower deity rings with a technical problem. You REALLY don't want to miss this if you're religious, like black humour or are otherwise socially challenged.

In this episode, Martin and Chris host Shea, a long-time listener and first-time caller :-). In contrast to what you may believe listening to this episode, marketing had NO play whatsoever in bringing Shea on air and any of his opinions about the show, Linux in particular, the world in general - you get the idea - are entirely his and are not sponsored by the Inlaws in any way. Want to get on the show as well? Simply top Shea's amount of feedback emails (currently clocking in at approximately 25,000) and an episode is yours. But before getting any ideas like letting a bot do all of the hard work of sending these mails: We will spot the difference, so only genuine, hand-written (on a keyboard :-) emails will be considered. <p>Links</p> <ul><li>Hacker Public Radio: <a href="https://hackerpublicradio.org" target=_blank>https://hackerpublicradio.org</a></li> <li>Linux Inlaws DYI Linux Distros: <a href="https://archive.org/details/LI_S01E83_DIY_Linux_Distros__1792" target=_blank>https://archive.org/details/LI_S01E83_DIY_Linux_Distros__1792</a></li> <li>Dick Turpin Roadshow: <a href="https://ukpodcasters.com/podcast/dick-turpin-road-show" target=_blank>https://ukpodcasters.com/podcast/dick-turpin-road-show</a></li> <li>Productivity Machines: <a href="https://direct.mit.edu/books/book/4528/Productivity-MachinesGerman-Appropriations-of" target=_blank>https://direct.mit.edu/books/book/4528/Productivity-MachinesGerman-Appropriations-of</a></li> <li>Brief Answers to the Big Questions: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brief_Answers_to_the_Big_Questions" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brief_Answers_to_the_Big_Questions</a></li> <li>The French Dispatch: <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8847712/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_4_nm_0_q_french%2520dispatch" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8847712/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_4_nm_0_q_french%2520dispatch</a></li> </ul>

IN this episode Martin and Chris host Uwe Ziegenhagen, a veteran of the LaTeX community. For our younger hipster audience, LaTeX has been the typesetting system of choice for generations of scientists publishing their work far beyond the realm of computer science (as a matter of fact, Chris' first two books were produced using this software). Plus more on one of Martin's dirty little secrets (hint: it concerns Netflix lesser known sides). Plus a trip down memory lane for Chris. So if you're interested in computer-aided typesetting or want to know more about Martin's secrets or Chris' past, this is your show! <p>Links</p> <ul><li>TEX: <a href="https://tug.org" target=_blank>https://tug.org</a></li> <li>LATEX: <a href="https://www.latex-project.org" target=_blank>https://www.latex-project.org</a></li> <li>Comprehensive TEX Archive Network (CTAN): <a href="https://www.ctan.org" target=_blank>https://www.ctan.org</a></li> <li>DANTE e.

In this episode our two ageing heroes discuss the wonderful and mysterious art of software quality with a special focus on testing.

This episode features Joe Drumgoole, head of developer relations at MongoDB (at the time of the recording). MongoDB of course being one of the document databases in the NoSQL space. So if you're interested in what this NoSQL hype is all about anyway or want to catch up on the latest shenanigans at MongoDB, this is an episode not to be missed. Full disclosure: This episode does contain some marketing angles and a few somewhat biased views on technologies which some of our listeners may find discomforting (or which others may find particularly enjoyable). Anyway, you have been warned :-).

In this episode, Martin and Chris discuss the relationship between relationships and FLOSS. Given the apparent similarities between these two areas regarding problem solving, escalations, etc. many tried and tested approaches are examined and evaluated in a relationship context. So if you are just after going through a break-up and wondered what the heck went wrong, plan to engage in a romantic liaison or are in the thick of it, this show is definitively for you.

In this episode Martin and Chris host Rebecca Rumbul, CEO of the Rust Foundation. Rust, as probably many of our three listeners (who haven't been living under rocks, boulders and similar scree for the last couple of years) know has been quite the hot thing for some time now in the industry with major players such as Mozilla Foundation, Microsoft, Meta and Google to name but a few pouring significant investments in this technology (it also made into the Linux kernel but more on that in the show). So if you ever wondered what the fuzz is all about, you don't want to miss this episode. <p>Links</p> <ul><li>Rust: <a href=" https://www.rust-lang.org" target=_blank> https://www.rust-lang.org</a></li> <li>Rust Foundation: <a href="https://foundation.rust-lang.org" target=_blank>https://foundation.rust-lang.org</a></li> <li>Rust and Linux: <a href="https://rust-for-linux.com" target=_blank>https://rust-for-linux.com</a></li> <li>Mac and Cheese and Marmite: <a href="https://www.deliciousmagazine.co.uk/recipes/marmite-macaroni-cheese" target=_blank>https://www.deliciousmagazine.co.uk/recipes/marmite-macaroni-cheese</a></li> <li>The Suspect: <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15548144" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15548144</a></li> <li>The Terminal List: <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11743610" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt11743610</a></li> </ul>

In this episode Martin and Chris take a trip down memory lane and explore the origins of reduced instruction set computers, the little buggers that - for example - power most of today's smartphone on the planet. But this is merely an intro to todays's topic, the RISC-V processor architecture purely built on FLOSS principals. So if you're interested in open source hardware and how to participate in this exciting new approach to community-designed and -built hardware, don't miss this episode. <p>Links</p> <ul><li>Little Britain: <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/littlebritain" target=_blank>https://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/littlebritain</a></li> <li>IBM 801: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_801" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_801</a></li> <li>IBM 6150 RT: <a href="https://www.ibm.com/common/ssi/ShowDoc.wss?docURL=/common/ssi/rep_ca/6/897/ENUS186-006/index.html" target=_blank>https://www.ibm.com/common/ssi/ShowDoc.wss?docURL=/common/ssi/rep_ca/6/897/ENUS186-006/index.html</a></li> <li>IBM System p: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_System_p" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_System_p</a></li> <li>Nvidia's ARM acquisition: <a href="https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/news/press-releases/2022/02/statement-regarding-termination-nvidia-corps-attempted-acquisition-arm-ltd" target=_blank>https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/news/press-releases/2022/02/statement-regarding-termination-nvidia-corps-attempted-acquisition-arm-ltd</a></li> <li>MIPS architecture: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIPS_architecture" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIPS_architecture</a></li> <li>List of SOC architectures found in routers using MIPS: <a href="https://openwrt.org/toh/recommended_routers" target=_blank>https://openwrt.org/toh/recommended_routers</a></li> <li>SPARC: <a href="https://sparc.org/technical-documents" target=_blank>https://sparc.org/technical-documents</a></li> <li>RISC-V: <a href="https://riscv.org" target=_blank>https://riscv.org</a></li> <li>RISC-V specifications: <a href="https://riscv.org/technical/specifications" target=_blank>https://riscv.org/technical/specifications</a></li> <li>RISC-V @ Wikipedia: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RISC-V" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RISC-V</a></li> <li>Chris' Kubernetes presentation at OpenSUSE Conference 2023: <a href="https://events.opensuse.org/conferences/oSC23/program/proposals/4145" target=_blank>https://events.opensuse.org/conferences/oSC23/program/proposals/4145</a></li> <li>Tübix 2023: <a href="https://www.tuebix.org" target=_blank>https://www.tuebix.org</a></li> <li>k8s on Android @ Tübix: <a href="https://www.tuebix.org/2023/programm/50-neues-vom-spielplatz-kubernetes-auf-deinem-smartphone" target=_blank>https://www.tuebix.org/2023/programm/50-neues-vom-spielplatz-kubernetes-auf-deinem-smartphone</a></li> <li>American Sniper: <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2179136/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_7_nm_1_q_american%2520sniper" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2179136/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_7_nm_1_q_american%2520sniper</a></li> <li>The Handmaid's Tale: <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5834204/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5834204/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1</a></li> <li>Rat Race: <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0250687/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_q_rat%2520race" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0250687/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_8_nm_0_q_rat%2520race</a></li> </ul>

In this episode, Martin and Chris are excited to host Taylor Dolezal from the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). The CNCF is home to some tiny, lesser known (:-) projects such as Kubernetes, Prometheus and Containerd to name but a few.

Getting more and concerned about the security of your kit (read: infrastructure)? Fret not, as usual the Inlaws got you covered. In this episode, Martin and Chris discuss FLOSS tools for offensive security, i.e. software that you can use to assess the level of vulnerability of your system before the bad guys do the very same.

In this episode Chris wonders about the German postal system and its (non-existent) efficiency when trying to deliver important administrative documents (hint: possible remedies include personal collection in order to cut down on delivery times). In the tiny part of the show on FLOSS (making up for 90% or so), Martin and Chris discuss the history and woes of software driving tiny computers normally living in coats or pockets, pretending to be useful by predicting the weather, connecting on social media and making phone calls. Yes, we are talking smartphones and their software here.

In this episode Martin and Chris and hosting Kyle Davis, a senior developer advocate for the bookshop's Bottlerocket, a Linux-based operating system for hosting that latest fad of the hipster community known as containers :-). What sets this version of Linux apart from similar endeavours is that much of its userland is actually written in Rust rather than C or C++. So if you ever wondered about how one of the big hyperscalers does it with, for and below containers (in terms of the tech stack involved), you don't want to miss this episode. Plus bonus content on OpenSearch. And Chris really spills the beans on some rumours regarding future AWS CPU architectures.

Shpashe: Sje vinyl frontjier (ludicrous attempt at Scotty's Scottish accent :-). In this episode our two aging heroes take a closer look at how FLOSS is used for the exploration of space. But not only from a FLOSS project perspective but also who's actually using these open source components (hint: some guy who recently bought a social network features high on this list).

Ever wanted to know the ins and outs of quantum computing but shied away from the math and other detractors? Fear not, as usual the Inlaws got you covered. In this episode Martin and Chris host Simon Cross to talk about FLOSS in a quantum computing context. Originally a from a highly academic background, Simon is known for his influential contributions in the areas of applied quantum computing and beyond.

As it has been custom at this time of year, our two ageing heroes give an update on the Inlaws world domination achievement status (being rather modest now :-), FOSDEM and time travel, the feedback process for Linux Inlaws, some weird download metrics, the way to send feedback to the show, what exactly happened with HPR and the Inlaws, (did I mention the feedback mail address?), our new logo and its difficult birth and the road ahead. If there is one. (What happened? Will the Inlaws cease to exist? Is this the end of line for Martin and Chris? Stay tuned and listen to the show for answers. All may be revealed. :-). And of course how to get feedback to the show and its producers. ми присвячуємо випуск українському народу - we dedicate this episode to the Ukrainian people <p>Links</p> <ul><li>TTF (gas futures): <a href="https://www.theice.com/products/27996665/Dutch-TTF-Gas-Futures/data?marketId=5493476&span=3" target=_blank>https://www.theice.com/products/27996665/Dutch-TTF-Gas-Futures/data?marketId=5493476&span=3</a></li> <li>The great HPR saga: <a href="https://archive.org/details/LI_S01E68_How_to_get_rich_quick_-_how_we_do_podcasts__" target=_blank>https://archive.org/details/LI_S01E68_How_to_get_rich_quick_-_how_we_do_podcasts__</a></li> <li>archive.org: <a href="https://archive.org" target=_blank>https://archive.org</a></li> <li>Wayback Machine: <a href="https://archive.org/web" target=_blank>https://archive.org/web</a></li> <li>HPR episode: <a href="https://hackerpublicradio.org/eps.php?id=3409" target=_blank>https://hackerpublicradio.org/eps.php?id=3409</a></li> <li>ChatGPT: <a href="https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt" target=_blank>https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt</a></li> </ul>

In this episode, Martin and Chris host an industry veteran to get the user's side perspective on FLOSS usage especially from a health provider perspective. As FLOSS components are a vital part of any of today's enterprise IT systems, medical providers and health care in general are no exception apart from the much higher regulatory and compliance requirements this industry postulates. The discussion centers around these requirements and how to fulfil them in addition to a more security-focussed conversation as these medical IT systems present a prime target for attackers not only due to the sensitive personal information many of these systems process and store. <p>Links</p> <ul><li>Project Jupyter (Python notebooks): <a href="https://jupyter.org" target=_blank>https://jupyter.org</a></li> <li>Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA): <a href="https://www.cms.gov/regulations-and-guidance/administrative-simplification/hipaa-aca" target=_blank>https://www.cms.gov/regulations-and-guidance/administrative-simplification/hipaa-aca</a></li> <li>Personal Health Information: <a href="https://www.techtarget.com/searchhealthit/definition/personal-health-information" target=_blank>https://www.techtarget.com/searchhealthit/definition/personal-health-information</a></li> <li>OpenSSF: <a href="https://openssf.org" target=_blank>https://openssf.org</a></li> <li>LNG: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquefied_natural_gas" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquefied_natural_gas</a></li> <li>The Code Book: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Code_Book" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Code_Book</a></li> <li>Lee Child's Jack Reacher series: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Reacher_(book_series)" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Reacher_(book_series)</a></li> </ul>

As privacy is becoming more and more of a concern even outside of the shady regions of international arms trading, contraband smuggling and selling relatives on the Internet, even your ordinary man/woman/diverse is turning to virtual private networks and other means for obfuscating personal communications. The Onion Router Project (or Tor for short) plays a central role in this context. Essentially implementing an overlay network on top of the Internet, it not only allows journalists working under less-than comforting regimes (for wont of a better expression) and political oppositions in similar contexts to but rather anybody who uses it communicate freely and without any censorship. As there are quite a few myths and misconceptions surrounding this project, this episode will dispel them all :-) apart from giving an overview of the technical and non-technical side of the implementation. If you're concerned with the your privacy and happen to use the Internet (and who isn't these days), then this definitely an episode you shouldn't miss. <p>Links</p> <ul><li>Tor: <a href="https://www.torproject.org" target=_blank>https://www.torproject.org</a></li> <li>Public Money Public Code Campaign: <a href="https://fsfe.org/activities/publiccode/index.en.html" target=_blank>https://fsfe.org/activities/publiccode/index.en.html</a></li> <li>Tor Browser Bundle: <a href="https://www.torproject.org/download" target=_blank>https://www.torproject.org/download</a></li> <li>Tor architecture: <a href="https://thesecmaster.com/detailed-anatomy-of-the-tor-network-structure-of-the-tor-network" target=_blank>https://thesecmaster.com/detailed-anatomy-of-the-tor-network-structure-of-the-tor-network</a></li> <li>Tor SOCKS Proxy: <a href="https://github.com/PeterDaveHello/tor-socks-proxy" target=_blank>https://github.com/PeterDaveHello/tor-socks-proxy</a></li> <li>Tor source code: <a href="https://github.com/torproject/tor" target=_blank>https://github.com/torproject/tor</a></li> <li>Theoretical attack vectors: <a href="https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Speculative_Tor_Attacks" target=_blank>https://www.whonix.org/wiki/Speculative_Tor_Attacks</a></li> <li>Node control attack: <a href="https://www.researchgate.net/publication/260353732_A_New_Cell-Counting-Based_Attack_Against_Tor" target=_blank>https://www.researchgate.net/publication/260353732_A_New_Cell-Counting-Based_Attack_Against_Tor</a></li> <li>How to set up a bridge: <a href="https://tb-manual.torproject.org/bridges" target=_blank>https://tb-manual.torproject.org/bridges</a></li> <li>SAS Rogue Heroes: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAS:_Rogue_Heroes" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAS:_Rogue_Heroes</a></li> <li>Up First: <a href="https://www.npr.org/podcasts/510318/up-first" target=_blank>https://www.npr.org/podcasts/510318/up-first</a></li> </ul>

In this episode our two hosts discuss on one of the most popular image manipulation called GIMP. Almost a quarter of a century since its inception, it has been the foundation for much more than than image processing; gtk is probably the most widely-known example for the surrounding technology stack beyond GIMP itself. Martin and Chris host Kevin O'Brien, a long-time user of the project over the years and authority on the software and its technology (he runs a regular show on GIMP on Hacker Public Radio among other things). So if you ever wanted to know more about GIMP's rise to fame, its current state and where this may be headed, this is an episode not to be missed. <p>Links</p> <ul><li>GIMP: <a href="https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp" target=_blank>https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp</a></li> <li>gtk: <a href="https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk" target=_blank>https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk</a></li> <li>Kevin's show on GIMP: <a href="https://hackerpublicradio.org/series.php?id=113" target=_blank>https://hackerpublicradio.org/series.php?id=113</a></li> <li>GIMP scripting: <a href="https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-scripting.html" target=_blank>https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-scripting.html</a></li> <li>GIMP & Python: <a href="https://www.gimp.org/docs/python/index.html" target=_blank>https://www.gimp.org/docs/python/index.html</a></li> <li>Wine: <a href="https://www.winehq.org" target=_blank>https://www.winehq.org</a></li> <li>Alpha Centauri (part of Civilization series): <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sid_Meier%27s_Alpha_Centauri" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sid_Meier%27s_Alpha_Centauri</a></li> <li>Deep State: <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4785472/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4785472/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0</a></li> <li>Urban Myths (TV series): <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6413094" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6413094</a></li> </ul>

In this Year-End episode, our two heroes take a look back at 2022 not just from a FLOSS perspective and hazard guesses about next year's shenanigans (listeners only interested in these predictions: please fast-forward to the four hour forty-five minutes and twenty seconds mark in your podcast player). Anybody else please keep listening... :-) Plus: The truth about Truth Social, Twitter and Elon Musk. <p>Links</p> <ul><li>D-Wave SPAC: <a href="https://www.dwavesys.com/company/newsroom/press-release/dpcm-capital-inc-and-d-wave-systems-inc-announce-completion-of-business-combination" target=_blank>https://www.dwavesys.com/company/newsroom/press-release/dpcm-capital-inc-and-d-wave-systems-inc-announce-completion-of-business-combination</a></li> <li>Guido van Rossum leaving retirement: <a href="https://www.techradar.com/news/creator-of-python-quits-retirement-joins-microsoft" target=_blank>https://www.techradar.com/news/creator-of-python-quits-retirement-joins-microsoft</a></li> <li>Python performance improvements: <a href="https://www.phoronix.com/review/python-311-performance" target=_blank>https://www.phoronix.com/review/python-311-performance</a></li> <li>Jammy Jellyfish changelog: <a href="https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/jammy-jellyfish-release-notes/24668" target=_blank>https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/jammy-jellyfish-release-notes/24668</a></li> <li>Snaps in Jammy Jellyfish: <a href="https://www.makeuseof.com/ubuntu-2204-jammy-jellyfish-released" target=_blank>https://www.makeuseof.com/ubuntu-2204-jammy-jellyfish-released</a></li> <li>Ruby 3 improvements: <a href="https://www.bigbinary.com/blog/ruby-3-features" target=_blank>https://www.bigbinary.com/blog/ruby-3-features</a></li> <li>Securing Open Source Software act: <a href="https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/BILLS-117s4913is/pdf/BILLS-117s4913is.pdf" target=_blank>https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/BILLS-117s4913is/pdf/BILLS-117s4913is.pdf</a></li> <li>Betterbird: <a href="https://www.betterbird.eu" target=_blank>https://www.betterbird.eu</a></li> <li>Ethereum Merge: <a href="https://ethereum.org/en/upgrades/merge/#main-content" target=_blank>https://ethereum.org/en/upgrades/merge/#main-content</a></li> <li>Social Truth and its problems: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truth_Social#Software" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truth_Social#Software</a></li> <li>The great Twitter debacle: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acquisition_of_Twitter_by_Elon_Musk" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acquisition_of_Twitter_by_Elon_Musk</a></li> <li>Elon's history (abbreviated version): <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elon_Musk" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elon_Musk</a></li> <li>Richest people on the planet: <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/articles/investing/012715/5-richest-people-world.asp" target=_blank>https://www.investopedia.com/articles/investing/012715/5-richest-people-world.asp</a></li> <li>Twitter alternatives: <a href="https://www.zdnet.com/article/best-twitter-alternatives" target=_blank>https://www.zdnet.com/article/best-twitter-alternatives</a></li> <li>Silence SMS encryption: <a href="https://silence.im" target=_blank>https://silence.im</a></li> <li>Research in Motion (aka BlackBerry Ltd.): <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BlackBerry_Limited" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BlackBerry_Limited</a></li> <li>Alice Schwarzer's book (in German): <a href="https://www.kiwi-verlag.de/buch/alice-schwarzer-mein-leben-9783462004380" target=_blank>https://www.kiwi-verlag.de/buch/alice-schwarzer-mein-leben-9783462004380</a></li> <li>Simon Singh's book on cryptography: <a href="https://simonsingh.net/books/the-code-book/the-book" target=_blank>https://simonsingh.net/books/the-code-book/the-book</a></li> <li>Alex Sanafilippo's video: <a href="https://youtu.be/Bjeye85l6gE" target=_blank>https://youtu.be/Bjeye85l6gE</a></li> </ul>

In this episode, Martin's utmost phantasy has become reality. He finally managed to talk Chris into discussing the wonderful and weird kingdom of streaming and messaging technology. So if you ever wondered how global portals like LinkedIn, Netflix and other new-fangled shenanigans work, you may find this episode vaguely interesting and remotely funny. A word of caution though: please do not listen to this episode if operating heavy machinery or while driving as the Inlaws cannot be held responsible for any resulting damages caused by instantly falling asleep... You have been warned. Plus: a discussion of the Russian annexation of certain Ukrainian territories from a yesteryear's perspective in addition to royal developments in the kingdom after Lizzy's untimely demise (for all you history buffs out there). <p>Links</p> <ul><li>Streaming vs. Messaging: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41744506/difference-between-stream-processing-and-message-processing" target=_blank>https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41744506/difference-between-stream-processing-and-message-processing</a></li> <li>Kafka: <a href="https://kafka.apache.org" target=_blank>https://kafka.apache.org</a></li> <li>RabbitMQ: <a href="https://github.com/rabbitmq" target=_blank>https://github.com/rabbitmq</a></li> <li>Redis Streams: <a href="https://redis.io/docs/data-types/streams-tutorial" target=_blank>https://redis.io/docs/data-types/streams-tutorial</a></li> <li>Terry Pratchett Going Postal: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Going_Postal" target=_blank>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Going_Postal</a></li> <li>MQSeries (nowadays known as IBM MQ): <a href="https://www.ibm.com/products/mq" target=_blank>https://www.ibm.com/products/mq</a></li> <li>Wind River: <a href="https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5362988/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0" target=_blank>https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5362988/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0</a></li> <li>Who gives a crap: <a href="https://whogivesacrap.org" target=_blank>https://whogivesacrap.org</a></li> </ul>
