We’ll experiment with the Distros and Desktop Environments that we all love, we’ll discuss the current hardware and technology impacting our lives and we’ll also talk about the different topics affecting the community. All along the way we’ll share stories and anecdotes about our journey through the Linux User Space. Episodes drop every other Monday.

The Chess Experience
Chess improvement as an adult is harder than it should be. Plus, the journey can sometimes feel too stressful and serious. This show aims to fix that by 1) interviewing experts who can offer clarity on the best ways to improve; and 2) giving you a heap of fun with “chess entertainment” shows that discuss chess culture, events, movies, etc. Most episodes feature a guest, but sometimes I'll do a solo show on a topic. This is all brought to you by me, Daniel Lona. I’m a dedicated chess amateur and the owner of Adult Chess Academy. After listening to this podcast, I want you to have a clearer idea of how to improve, and have a more fun, dynamic chess experience. Please follow the show so you don’t miss an episode!

Kyle's Email - Thanks for your feedback! Some gdebi info (https://itsfoss.com/gdebi-default-ubuntu-software-center/) If you are on a KDE plasma desktop, Discover can install .deb packages too. Like gdebi, just right click on the file and select Discover to open with. General Github software download techniques. Look for a releases section and download the binary release from there. If you don't see that look for the code button and download the zip file. You can also use git (If you know how and have it installed) and just copy the git url in the code button too. So you downloaded a shell script... I try to keep it organized and place them in ~/bin You can add that to your $PATH (perhaps a bit advanced) to make it easier to call. You can give it the executable flag, (most file managers have this option). Or change mode on the command line - chmod +x FILENAME To start your script: ./FILENAME.sh While you may not understand all of the code, it is a good idea to glance at it. $BROWSER Watch Duck Duck Go Browser (https://spreadprivacy.com/duckduckgo-2021-review/) DuckDuckGo Search Up by 46% (https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/technology/privacy-focused-search-engine-duckduckgo-grew-by-46-percent-in-2021/) Brave Browser Protects Network-State for Added Privacy (https://brave.com/privacy-updates/14-partitioning-network-state/) Hold On, Ghostery Dawn?
