Summary: Personal perspective on the subject of patents and software patents in particular
WHILE STILL experimenting a little with recordmydesktop, I’ve created a bunch of videos as a sort of test run before the next TechBytes Video episode (with Tim). In the following I talk a bit about software patents.
Summary: A ramble about the changing nature of Microsoft FUD, especially against GNU/Linux
At Microsoft, the days of ignoring and laughing are over. The company is now attacking its rivals with software patents, having mostly neglected attacks on rivals — notably Linux — based on verbal attacks (legal threats) and ridicule of technical nature. Microsoft’s strategy is now lobbying for software patents while extorting any company which does not use Windows.
This video tests some minor improvements in recording and it was neither planned not scripted.
Summary: A commentary on whether or not Linux and Free software are winning
THIS is not an episode of TechBytes Video but more of a test, the final one of its kind. This video was done as an audio test amid some problems with the software’s compression phase (thus the audio cutoff).
Linux is winning in Android form as it spreads faster than Windows (replaces itself). Android enjoys a “growth rate of [...] growth [at] 4.4% per week,” which is amazing. Meanwhile, Apple targets those who are willing to pay too much for something more primitive and restrictive.
Summary: Allegations of “Negativism” in Techrights and in “Boycott Novell” are put in perspective.
THIS is not a proper episode of TechBytes Video. I have been testing a few things in order to improve future delivery (when Tim and I both find time) and in the mean time I do try to convey some messages in means that are not text-only. In this video I speak about my experiences facing the allegation that this site is too abrasive.
his series of videos is a rough explanation of the approach taken in order to utilise principal component analysts (PCA) in the task of shape classification. This was done without preparation or second takes, so the quality and clarity are not particularly high.
Summary: Delays and procrastinations as the cause for TechBytes Video not being released more often
TechBytes Video has not produced anything due to difficulties associated with setting everything up. In this video, an explanation is informally given (no preparations made, so pardon the quality) as well as a teaser about another new show.
Summary: Rusty, Tim, and Roy get together for a discussion about the latest news, in particular about GNU/Linux
THE LATEST show spoke about a range of subjects, mostly distributions, desktop environments, and the situation Ubuntu is in.
The show’s tracks are “Rise Up”, “Free Software Song” by Jono Bacon, and “Solo Un Poco Mas” by Debayres.
