For some reason this episode felt a lot shorter than others.
I still really liked it tho, it finally made me create an account here!
Thank you! Less topics is better than 170.
Thanks, @MichaelTunnell - another great episode! So much excellent news. I’m wondering if perhaps Sony’s is my favourite. Isn’t the PS based on FreeBSD? Would be great if they publicised use of open source in their film studios, if they still have them. About out of touch with film myself, these days!
