    LI_S02E57_Codeberg

    Like Github but don't like the company behind it? Then look no further! This episode has Otto Richter and Michael Jerger never mind our lovely elder two hosts discussing Codeberg, an FLOSS alternative to Github, Gitlab and corporate friends. Using a federated technology based on our beloved git, invented by Linus and friends all those years ago. Sounds fascinating? Then don't miss the episode! Plus bonus content: Chris gets philosophical about plants, the sun and mornings.

    LI_S02E56_Six_Years

    We have made it! Six years in the making and still going strong. With a steadily increasing audience of - wait for it - at least ten listeners. When they can't get to sleep or have nothing else to do. Or - gosh - want to learn something. Like what's Usenet. And why Linux has been so important (yes, it all will be revealed in this episode!). Including a crash course on operating system design (including the operating system war) and CPU design history. Never mind how humorous works. So wars or not, you have an hour to spare, can't get to sleep or want to learn something, never mind want to know why our beloved operating system conquered the world and how humor works and much, much more, you certainly don't want to miss this episode! (Ok, marketing made us do it - before Martin fired them once again).

    LI_S02E55_Thunderbird_Reloaded

    This episode features Thunderbird, one of the (if not the most) popular mail clients in the FLOSS ecosystem. Heather Ellsworth, a buddying physicist turned DevRel (better late than never) from the project spills the beans on the history of the project not only in a Mozilla context, explains that TB's hiatus is just another urban myth and what's ahead for the project. In terms of future roadmap, monetisation and world domination. If that sounds familiar, it should! As the Inlaws have been pondering these last few topics for more than six years now. Although in contrast to Thunderbird with limited success (until now, if you want to know more on these topics and more, don't miss the next episode!).

    LI_S02E54_The_Gettogether

    This episode - recorded in an ultra-secret location near a border (any border will do - almost :-) - is witness to our two ageing heroes being in the same location for a change and gives away some giveaways. For the first time in the Inlaws' history, this episode features a glimpse into the future of the show: an overview of what's to come in 2026! Plus the usual banter about Trump, some FLOSS topics and why red wine for breakfast is almost always the better option. And some beans are spilled - for example, Martin's first programming language (hint: in contrast to popular belief, this wasn't IBM mainframe assembler which was all the rage in the sixties). Plus more from Martin's distant past - if he can remember it.

    LI_S02E53_Xmas_and_New_Year

    As 'tis the season, we have a combined Xmas and New Year's episode for you. And what a blast this is! The usual suspects will make an appearance - all those characters which you have known for years and probably already taken a shine to. Yes, this does include the Grumpies (the Grumpy Old Coders) for the uninitiated, our beloved countess Vladessa and of course our two hosts Martin and Chris. This time (as it has been a tradition for the last two year by now) impersonated by two lovely large language models (LLMs). Which goes to show that - in contrast to popular belief - LLMs DO have humour and CAN make jokes. If so forced into this... For a laughter or two and a bit of fun, don't miss this episode. Plus bonus content: The real truth behind the Redis / Valkey split, how to pack a swimming pool, sauna and much more all into one motorcycle and what this has to do with FLOSS. Or not.

    LI_S02E52_Knoppix

    In this episode Martin and Chris talk to Klaus Knopper of Knoppix fame. For the few listeners who do not know what Knoppix is: Just listen to the episode (hint: it's one of the oldest life distros on the planet). Plus more on Linux for handicapped users. And the challenges of maintaining a distro and how to overcome them (watch out for the magic contained in this segment!). And an abbreviated history of Linux (esp. in Germany). Never mind Microsoft's dirty secrets involving Unix, Linux and some other things swept under the rug of history.

    LI_S02E51_Podcasts

    This episode introduces a somewhat brand-new concept: an off-topic subject. As in: How to excel in the beautiful and ancient art of Origami (the Japanese fine art of paper folding, going back a few centuries if not more). Still reading? Excellent! Jokes aside, in this episode Martin and Chris will shed more light on one of their dark sides of their lives. To be more precise: podcasts the Inlaws (as in: we) listen to. Apart from the most famous one called Linux Inlaws (and if you believe this, you'll believe anything :-)). But stay tuned: If you are longing for more details of the very private life of our two ageing heroes, this is the episode you do not want to miss!

    LI_S02E50_LoRaWan_and_friends

    The focus of this episode is Long Range WAN (also affectionately known as LoRaWAN. For those few people in the audience that don't have a clue: Just listen to episode - all will be revealed! Clue: it does have to do with that dreaded thing called the Internet of Things (and much much more). So stay tuned for the details! Plus bonus content: Martin finally sees the light and praises Rust (maybe). And much speculation about Valkey, Redis and other oddities. And - wait for it - Martin again ventures into the strange and wonderful world of agriculture. As in: Getting down and dirty with cows, sheep, pigs and other livestock. Plus bonus content: Martin's views on British politics in general and Keir Starmer in particular. So you DON'T want to miss this episode!
