Thanks, @MichaelTunnell - really enjoyed this, as usual! Now I’m up-to-date on my TWiL and DL podcasts, I think I’ll catch-up on Hardware Addicts next, though I’m very behind.
I popped onto your sponsor Visuex’s site - very impressive, thanks. I think it’s just decades of using the command line, so is it just me perceiving this as:
vi su ex
and wondering if you’re telling us you no-longer use vi or su because you’ve moved on to Kate and sudo?
More seriously though, great news as ever with kernel and other updates. I’m glad distros have patched that security flaw, though in mobile technologies I know some budget phones only provide updates for a very limited period and then that’s yet another vulnerability in Android?
Recently I’ve chosen to try my hand at contributing to open source in the KDE project; one reason is its impact could be so far-reaching, including for Linux based mobile phones. We really them!
