Summary: Tim and Roy discuss today's news about games, graphics cards, and 3-D effects in GNU/Linux; towards the end of the show the discussion is focused on the competition
THIS is the third episode of our show, which now increases in terms of release pace and audience size. The show is neither scripted nor edited, but it strives to cover all the news that matters and delve into discussions which other Web sites seem to avoid. Show notes can usually be found at OpenBytes, which also posted links of relevance.
In a future show we may speak to "wallclimber", who contributed a lot to Techrights and will hopefully be on TechBytes some time in January. She requires some preparation, which we too will be doing as the show matures. The interference of background noise has been reduced and the flow of the show will hopefully improve over time, even without any rehearsals.

HTTP/2 added a lot of complexity (it's just a Google protocol, based on SPDY originally), many image formats are proprietary and patented, HTML got 'replaced' by Java-Scripts [sic], and many URLs (the URL system was created in the early 90s) are just long strings for proprietary 'webapps'
A 10-word sentence being read by a million people can have the same impact or magnitude (exposure-wise) as a million-word book being read by just 10 people
