Solus Is Back

Joshua Lee
The Announcement Today I woke up to find this reddit post from Josh Strobl, a developer I follow. This is a pretty big deal for meas Solus was my first distro experience where I honestly never felt that it was ever required for me to “use a terminal” This was well before the days of flatpak and snaps (which Solus still doesn’t have a graphical store for). The past six or so months have apparently really put a damper on the distribution with a website outage, and then the package build system went down which effectively means there’s been no package updates for months now.

Sponsors

Joshua Lee
Sponsors Currently None! Coorperate Sponsorship Guidelines I reserve the right of opinion, this means if your product is bad. Then I will tell not only you it’s bad. But my audience as well. I only accept payments through United States Dollars, I will not accept any payments in cryptocurrncies for a sponsorship. I will only promote a giveaway that aligns with the various laws and regulations in the continental US states.

Distrohacking: Is NixOS The Future?

Joshua Lee
Video Shownotes NixOS is a distro after my own heart, we cover the instalation and how cool I think it is, and yet somehow I got convinced by a guest known as Dem to try slackware, while I also goof around with Emacs a bit. You’ll find while the episode is long, we almost always have a good time. Links: NixOS Slackware GNU Emacs Subscribe Audio YouTube Social Media Blog

Audio Samples

So I’ve been working on some audio stuff Here’s some audio smaples for my current setup. Linux Mint 20.3 PulseAudio Cinnamon Desktop Audio Technica AT2020 Alesis Multimix 4USBFX (I honestly hate this thing but it was cheap enough xlr at the time) nevoyu-sample.tar.gz Thats literally as raw a recording that a recording can be, I included the audacity project file too for proofs. but this mixer has no effects and the tuning is flat on the 12kHz and 80Hz and it feeds into the PC via the mixer’s usb port.
