@Ahuka @claudiom hello, I am amazed I could find the person, Ahuka, behind Hacker Public Radio http://hackerpublicradio.org.

I found this podcast site years ago, but then I forgot about it, and fortunately I found it again today. HPR is a great project and the commitment to use all Free Software for producing information is the thing I admire the most. Ah, and I like the 'About' page http://hackerpublicradio.org/about.php, it is thoroughly well written.

Thank you!

Oh crap... I forgot to share this here. From this year's Blender Conference:

Around the beginning of the year, Ton Roosendaal accepted an Ub Iwerks Award on behalf of the Blender community at the Annie Awards. At this year's Blender Conference (#bcon19), we were all able to get photographed with the award, because according to him it belongs to all of us. This is the goofy shot that got taken of me.

You can see a whole bunch of other photos at https://conference.blender.org/2019/photos

Another thing: I can't stand people that pretend passion for a trade/practice, then proceed to gatekeep. My knowledge is free, and I'm eager to help when others run into issues I have experience resolving. Even if I don't, I'm willing to learn with you.

True

Sesame Street, a show created for public access television to help kids from low-income families learn to read and write, is being put being a paywall which will prevent the kids who most need it from accessing it.
The past 50 seasons are also included in that so they can't be streamed anywhere else.

Fuck capitalism.

Pirate Sesame Street.

If you didn't already notice, we dropped a new episode on the first. You should put it on your list of things to check out. urandom-podcast.info

Just re-upping this offer: because being comfortable with git is a barrier to entry to many FS/OSS projects, and because I care deeply about lowering those barriers, I will tutor anyone who asks for help with git, and/or connect them with any mentor(s) they might prefer.

I'll do this while I put energy and work into making the tool more approachable, and into making better tools and learning paths.

Boosts gratefully appreciated.
