  • A good Show even by not smart leftists

    Informative, humorous, They are unfortunately leftist dolts, not surprising for self important Europeans who are not quite as smart as they think. Anyone in the UK against brexit can’t even have the IQ of your average democrat yet somehow even these guys can install linux,a testament to how user friendly it has become. I recommend the destination linux network over these euro-clowns.

  • So long mates!

    Over the last few months I’ve tried ignoring the apparent need these guys have suddenly had to inject their opinions on American politics into a podcast about an open source computer kernel.

  • Fuck off with your Anti-American politics, Joe. I challenge you to go one episode without mentioning how you blame capitalism for everything or complain about Trump, crypto, America or politics in general. Go burn down a Tesla dealership instead of wasting your time pretending to care about Linux.

    You'd probably make more money protesting something at a Soros funded rally. I know the tech podcast landscape would be better if you did that instead.
