It was a good day and welcome to Hacker Public Radio.
|
||||
My name is Jay W and I've done some shows before on Hacker Public Radio and I'm doing
|
||||
audacity at the internet cafe today so you all see there's a little bit of background
|
||||
noise and I'm sorry if it's a little bit too loud.
|
||||
So I'm adjusting the audacity, it looks a lot better right now on the audacity.
|
||||
I've been a while since I did a show on the Hacker Public Radio and I'm even on podcasts
|
||||
on my normal place.
|
||||
I've been incredibly busy at work, I've been working in Prague and in Czech Republic
|
||||
I've been traveling pretty extensively.
|
||||
I'm still listening to the New Year's Eve show and I have to say that I was really impressed
|
||||
with that New Year's Eve show and that tells you how far behind I am on the podcast
|
||||
but like POPI I had to use an SD card and it's a big gig on my mind.
|
||||
I'll transfer all my stuff on the G-Pod or put it there.
|
||||
I was really impressed with the crunch bang and I'm going to try my best to call POPI and
|
||||
I have a 701 also and also a 701 G4 and I really want to do a podcast about putting
|
||||
crunch bang on the 704 and different things.
|
||||
Now I tried to do Davien with Openbox.
|
||||
I did my own config and my own config file and everything and I got it really lean and
|
||||
everything but it you know in the end I could work it but it wasn't very wife friendly
|
||||
and so I think crunch bang is a little one wife friendly maybe.
|
||||
Of course I use this 701 mostly to do internet type things which is the browser.
|
||||
So Google Docs you know all I need is a browser and there were no manager and maybe something
|
||||
for a music streaming or something.
|
||||
The important with that is that it's so small that it's absolutely totally portable.
|
||||
Well the main topic that I wanted to talk to you all about the day was as you'll know
|
||||
I'm a USB freak and I use USB sticks and USB cards and off a lot you know either to boot
|
||||
or to run free or open source software and the place that I primarily do that is a place
|
||||
called portable apps.com that's portable and then at the word apps and dot com and what's
|
||||
happened at portable apps.com now is just they have a complete new suite have a version
|
||||
and it's absolutely incredible it's got to be by far the best upgrade that I've ever had
|
||||
and not on any of this right and so it what it does is it's you know it has a Dropbox plugin
|
||||
now it has you know everything that you could possibly imagine but what it does now that it
|
||||
didn't do in previous version version 10 it updates everything so you plug in your SD card
|
||||
it comes up and it says would you like to update now right and we'll go through everything
|
||||
and update right and what this means is that you know I work a lot of places and so I use the
|
||||
SD card and on my work laptop I have a portable app suite and on my home PC for my life I also
|
||||
have a portable app suite and so it completely keeps all that updated so completely you know all
|
||||
the external things and before you know I used to have to have multiple you know like all the
|
||||
browsers and everything on you know everything on there but now it's it's really fast it's actually
|
||||
much much faster and the I mean when I say it has your favorite things you know it granted it
|
||||
doesn't work on Linux I must use wine but it has everything imaginable right so you know you have
|
||||
your your USB you know like I have an iRiver and if I plug in my iRiver my portable apps there
|
||||
are there with my complete mail stack completely secure with all the passwords so if I'm at
|
||||
internet cafe I don't have to put my passwords in on my hard drive or you can like that at all
|
||||
and so it really has everything you know I couldn't think of really anything that just has
|
||||
Leber office has Leber office it has open office and it's shooting it's shooting it's
|
||||
like Abbeyboard I got a Dacity the Dacity that using right now it it organizes
|
||||
it has sky built so that everything is built and it's just fun and you can organize everything
|
||||
as everything is drag and drop so you build exactly the way you want it like I said the
|
||||
updater is fantastic the themes and colors you can completely change it and the portable fonts
|
||||
the portable apps that kind of supports the ability to carry fonts on your portable device
|
||||
and use them with your portable software without needing to install them on a local machine so
|
||||
now you're working with an important presentation I'll work on poster for charity God that
|
||||
you can create as you like with the look and feel you like and not have to use the formats on
|
||||
your machine so they have TFF open type OTF and true type collections TTC and it's one
|
||||
one make up I download in it and if you have it before you don't have to download all the apps
|
||||
it just goes through your apps and so these are the old ones and it'll update them freely and
|
||||
freely for you and that's pretty much it now now not everything is free leiber there right
|
||||
someone's just free all right some of the stuff is just free for instance they have putty
|
||||
there and I use putty off a lot and one CP I use in my work a lot and so it's quite a
|
||||
quite a nice thing now interestingly enough it works with cloud drive and drop box
|
||||
right so you can actually install this on drop box have it come up as an application over the
|
||||
internet from drop box and it's really really nice and they also now have the built-in app store
|
||||
I haven't really done the built-in app store but I'm going to look for the built-in app store when
|
||||
we get done I'm looking at it you can go through and you know put all your apps and everything you
|
||||
know and with the price of 4 gigabyte and 8 gigabyte SD cards out you know store close it's really
|
||||
really important to you know just go ahead and get that put that free software on you know
|
||||
now really really if you really have somebody to have that now isn't going to
|
||||
do a boot to for whatever reason I think the world is the biggest reason now and I have to do a
|
||||
boot to is the that it doesn't do Netflix right and if you want any kind of streaming thing for
|
||||
seven bucks a month you know I live in Germany so seven bucks a month plus the proxy it's got to
|
||||
be the cheapest thing go on in Europe if you need English speaking TV so you need a Windows box
|
||||
for that or a Google Chrome box for that or an Apple box for that and it doesn't work with
|
||||
when it's not as yet there's I think there's a hacker page and it's quite difficult to get
|
||||
so we're like to work with Ubuntu right now and so if you have a really clean to say a
|
||||
a Windows starter or whatever on that book and you have your complete office suite right there
|
||||
a complete everything you don't have to install anything you know but the very basic Microsoft
|
||||
installs and and and boom you're off done you know done nothing nothing extra and if you
|
||||
wanted to be there always just copy to hard drive you don't need any other stuff all right well
|
||||
hey I'm going to go ahead and end this one if y'all need to get in touch with me it's a jwp5
|
||||
at hotmail.com all right and this is jw and y'all have a fantastic day take care bye bye
