Ubuntu 17.04: The bittersweet Linux release

The company dropped its smartphone and tablet plans. This, in turn, ended to its plans to make Unity its universal default interface. Instead, Gnome will become Ubuntu’s once and future desktop. Days later, long-time CEO Jane Silber resigned in favor of the company’s founder Mark Shuttleworth.

11 States Considereing Right To Repair

The bills would require manufacturers to sell replacement parts to consumers and independent repair companies and would also require them to open source diagnostic manuals. It would also give independent repair professionals the ability to bypass software locks that prevent repairs, allowing them to return a gadget back to its factory settings.

Right to repair advocates are looking at this movement as a perhaps decade-long process that will require a grassroots movement of consumers to push back against the long-entrenched repair monopolies of companies like Apple, John Deere, and video game console manufacturers.

A new Jitsi is out, does it finally offer video calling in the Freedom Dimension? We’ll put Jitsi to the test and see if we can break out nasty Skype habit.

Then we debate: is Google trying to avoid the Linux “stigma”?

Plus we’ve got a surprise unboxing, why Valve considers “Linux an island of stability in a sea of commercial chaos”…

Jitsi 2 Review:


System76

Brought to you by: System76

Pros:

  • Set your video res (when it works)_
  • Group video calling
  • Combine multiple Google Accounts, and AIM, MSN, Yahoo, etc.
  • Automatic and easy to use Encryption
  • Built in MP3 Recording
  • Nice sounds presets

Cons:

  • Stability is a bit hit and miss

  • Sharing Desktop seems to be unreliable (Google Hangouts hands down wins here).

  • Does not take much freeze video, so don’t really touch much after a call is in place.

  • Limited by constraints of 3rd party networks

  • imgur: the simple image sharer

Google Docs has some powerful features, collaborative editing being chief among them. This week we’ll show you why Etherpad Lite is more than just multiplayer notepad.

Plus why Valve’s Gabe Newell thinks Apple might be a big threat, the major new feature landing in Ubuntu 13.04, and the tasty gift Google gave to some UK schools!

The Open Google Docs Replacement:


System76

Brought to you by: System76

Up front: This is really focused on Google Docs’ collaborative features. As I have found these to be particularly a powerful competitive advantage of Google Docs. If you haven’t tried it, try it during your next meeting, or brainstorming session, or maybe just grocery shop list making from separate rooms. TRY IT!

First launched in November 2008, the software was acquired by Google in December 2009 and released as open source later that month. Several services now use the Etherpad software, including PiratePad, Telecomix Pad, Framapad, Mozilla Pad (MoPad), PrimaryPad, TypeWith.me, Sync.in, TitanPad and iEtherPad.com. Further development is coordinated by the Etherpad Foundation.

Etherpad Lite is an almost complete rewrite of the original Etherpad software, based on different technical foundations and written by different authors. While the original Etherpad is written in Scala and has quite big system requirements, Etherpad Lite is written in server-side JavaScript using node.js. The original realtime synchronization library (called Easysync) remains the same.

Apache License version 2.0 on December 17, 2009.

Prerequisites:

  • NodeJS
  • npm
  • Uncomment and change admin pw in settings.json
