Coming up in this episode I am speed! Kachow How old are you? and the call is coming from inside the RAM The Video Version https://youtu.be/SP-gPAkrqHk 0:00 Cold Open 2:00 It's Not Just Bandwidth 23:47 Age Verification in Linux 43:22 A Terrible Time for Faulty RAM 56:06 Hearkening Back +56:34 vimlena +1:00:21 squidiebah +1:03:18 Chris +1:04:16 Alphacluster +1:09:59 WhamGeek 1:12:44 Next Time 1:15:10 Stinger In this episode we dive into the wonderful world of bandwidth since there's an open source alternative to Speedtest.net and Fast.com these days, and it's LibreSpeed.org. Take a peek, preferably after they update their expired certificate (they seriously did this to us after we speak so highly!) and get a slightly more honest look at your speeds! For bonus points, try a different country. We also dig into some of the technical bits behind those tests. Also, when speaking about jitter, I should have said 'delta' or 'difference' rather than 'average'! Then, more age verification. This time, though, Linux distributions are caught in the crossfire and some are exploring the ways to actually handle potential implementations. Nothing's too dire yet as most of these 'laws' are still bills, and that means they don't matter quite yet. Also, we look into a post by Gabriele Svelto, a Firefox developer, to find out that not only is Firefox a little more reliable than you might think, bad RAM or other hardware bits might actually be the reason things are crashing, and not just Firefox! Finally, some feedback, and we learn that our Mac User / Listener Venn diagram isn't just two separate circles. 📣Announcements📣 This program was made possible by: 📺️Youtube 📽️TILvids And by contributions to your L-U-S station by Patrons like you 😍 Check Your Speed 🏁 librespeed 📣More Announcements📣 Want to have a topic covered or have some feedback? - send us an email, contact@linuxuserspace.show OR jump on over to the open forum on Lemmy Age Verification in Linux (and BSD) Proposed Colorado Legislation Proposed California Legislation System76 response Midnight BSD response FreeDesktop Merge Proposal punted to a portal implementation 🧹Housekeeping🧹 Catch these and other great topics as they unfold on our Subreddit or our News channel on Discord. 🗞️ Linux User Space Lemmy 📰 Linux User Space subreddit ⌨️ Linux User Space Discord Server 📲 Linux User Space Telegram ✉️ Linux User Space Matrix 📽️ Linux User Space Twitch 🐘 Linux User Space Mastodon 📜 Linux User Space Twitter 📺️ Linux User Space TILVids 📱 Linux User Space Bluesky Memories Lost Firefox crash reports detect bit flips Feedback @vimlena from YouTube Waterfox works with Firefox sync @squidiebah from YouTube Been using firefox for years, this won't make me move and I've just disabled it(AI). Chris from Fireside I'm that guy. The macOS user that regularly listens to your show! So, the Venn diagram is not two separate circles. It's more like circles that touch at exactly one point without crossing. They form a tangent. Alphacluster on Discord Also a Mac and Kagi user.
