Intel & Nokia Kill Maemo | The Linux Action Show! s11e01

[RyeinGoddard]

Android sucks and does waste power....meego is gone ....

[MrVode]

He called it! :)

[elnegrobembon]

i side with chris... i was so psyched about the n900. i thought it was the coolest device ever and i couldn't wait to get it.... until i found out about nokia discontinuing maemo and leaving the n900's future up in the air..

now i'm having serious doubts and i'm not impressed with what i've seen with meego so far (if it goes to the n900).

of course, my plan b is an android device... even though i'll be sad that it's not going to be anywhere close to the same experience as the n900

[MasaruGamer]

The pessimistic dude is a buzz kill. Kill him.

[blahdelablah]

Thanks for the show, enjoying it so far. FYI, Qt is pronounced 'Cute' not 'Q T'.

[maxximuscool]

@blahdelablah FYI, CUTE is gay, QT is better.

Where is the ogg version?

Also are you using the latest version of the encoder? The newest version made MASSIVE improvements to the encoder, not only does it compress better, but it runs faster! (Also rate control that actually works, and they fixed a bunch of brokenness inherited from the VP3 encoder)

[spudd86]

Ah you are using the libavcodec theora encoder, don't it sucks.

Try the latest version of ffmpeg2theora and make sure you have the latest version of libtheora (1.1).

[spudd86]

OpenCL is coming to Nouveau as soon as the state tracker lands in gallium.

[frvfilms]

yes , linux /gnu is fragmented!! we need to unite !

[kamaboko1]

Chris is right.

[Koss42]

*Nearly spins my head off looking back*

Wait... LAS?!

YEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!

You just made my year guys... Its nice to have LAS back. Nice? Hell it's AWESOME!

Bringing back the show that actually matters to me most! Now we need some more Beer is Tasty, and i'll be all set!

Keep up the great work, and off to watch the latest STOked!

Saying that Java is great because it works on all platforms, is like saying that anal sex is great because it works for both sexes.

Just wanted to throw it out there. :P

[SergeHumphrey]

Haha GoDaddy doesn't seem to understand, sex doesn't sell stuff to nerds.

[RyeinGoddard]

@SergeHumphrey what bull shit are you talking about. I LOVE BOOBS!!!

[Ormaaj]

Have you guys considered Dirac? It should be a reasonable compromise between ogg/theora and H.264.

[hblamo]

I like it better as Linux action show! :D keep it up!

[Ormaaj]

Why not just rename the show to the "moble phone and tablet pc show"? It never has anything to do with Linux.

[BryanLunduke]

Um. Whut.

[librano]

AAALLL THIS WEEK... ON THE LINUX ACTION SHOOOOW!

it's been a while... but we're back in the game!

[RobLoach]

LINUX ACTION SHOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!!!!!!!! YEEEEEEEEEEEAH!

Hardcore! Rock on! Drugs! Extreme! Explosions!

[TheFewzz]

Bloke on left is anoying

[BryanLunduke]

Oh man. Isn't he though? That guy on the left. JEEEEEZ.

[BrightLibra]

Brian... Heart.... Not Embedded Processor???

[blowtup]

Brian putting all his heart and soul in that intro.

[Joh739]

debian based = dead in space..... The transcribe doesn't work really well.... But cool that LAS is back though!

[thekatrinacrew]

Left of the screen resolution button theres a new button called "cc" which add subtitles and it cracks me up, cause its not 100% for eg brain says "Maemo" and sub say "un nato".

[thekatrinacrew]

@thekatrinacrew another eg at 18:28 the subs say "the earlier they wrap it and nobody's going to their all illegal aliens generating died" were did the illegal aliens come from?

[BryanLunduke]

I love the CC thing. :)

[Skybinary]

hell yeah wb

[travisman26]

hay w8 w8 w8 w8 android is on a java stack but it still has a thing where you can make linux apps on the linux part instead of on the java stack

[chessmastor]

Wow, such a boring show this time. Too much fighting, not enough facts.

[travmanx]

ITS BACK! So awesome

[kaiser10951]

Fantastic show, and it's great to have TLAS back in all its glory.

[RogerIyengarDotCom]

Love the lumetric sculpture from O'Haire in the background.

[superzanti]

man, I bet it feels good to say "all this week on the linux action show" again.

[BryanLunduke]

It does indeed!
