Summary: Special episode discussing Novell's sale and Microsoft's patent play, including a discussion about hardware products
THIS is the show where, without preparation, the three of us discuss Novell's sale. Tim's site, OpenBytes, has already published some show notes. We've had some audio issues throughout the show, so pardon occasional background noises/echo.
If the Web gets polluted or flooded by slopfarms such as these, and Slashdot then sends traffic so these slopfarms (Slashdot probably doesn't do this intentionally), then real writers with real knowledge of GNU/Linux will lose the spark for publishing
Those of us who actually want to reform the industry and put users in control of their systems/devices will recognise that "Open Source" was selling a lie or got-co-opted by liars
The commercial exploitation of users won't stop until users exercise full control over their software or - more broadly - their computing (including data)
Today's show ends with "Heart of Medieval". We hope you will join us for future shows and spread the word if you enjoy this show. Also consider subscribing to the show via the RSS feed. If you have an Identi.ca account, consider subscribing to TechBytes in order to keep up to date. ⬆
