Greetings Angela and Chris!

I had the very pleasant surprise of learning that I was the winner of the FauxShow Ting $300 service credit promo! My Motorola XPRT was flaking out on me, so I decided to take advantage of the $25 FauxShow offer to pick up a Chris-Fisher-recommended HTC One (it arrived yesterday, and it\’s very nice so far).

Let me take this opportunity to thank you for introducing me to Ting–my wife and I love it. Also, in addition to regularly enjoying the FauxShow, I\’m a big fan of LAS, Linux Unplugged, TechSnap, and Coder Radio. To celebrate the unexpected windfall in mobile savings, I\’ve upped my support from the affiliate browser extension to a monthly JB subscription (it was a bit overdue–my consumption of JB content now rivals my listening to NPR, so it made sense to support both through the subscription model). I\’m a heavy user of the JB Roku channel, so kudos and thanks to \”cbojar\” for that. Keep up the great work; the excellent JB content is much appreciated.

Cheers,
Seth

Hey Ang and Chris!

With YouTube\’s recent usage of their Content ID system, many respectable YouTube channels have had their content removed. Many popular channels have given the middle finger to YouTube recently and decided to serve videos instead on their personal pages.

Keeping that in mind and with FauxShow and other JB shows using content in their videos (fair use or not), does this threaten the content of the show? I know that Scale Engine hosts the audio and video and you can do without YouTube in the future, but I would admit that it would suck for JB to lose their YouTube audience.

So what are your thoughts on YouTube\’s Content ID? Is this the beginning of the end of the site?

Hiya Chris (and Matt and Allan and Chase and Michael – I religiously watch LAS, Coder Radio, TechSNAP and Unfilter). First of all, screw you for providing so many excellent shows. You force me to put aside a lot of my time to listen to these shows, and I have not been able to stop following any of the shows.
Anyway, I have been using linux since 2009, and I will be a computer science (and journalism) at college next year. I currently triple boot ubuntu 12.04, crunchbang (waldorf) and Windows 7 (for gaming). I\’ve used pretty much every distro under the sun… Except for Gentoo.

I would like to challenge you to do a show on Gentoo; how to install and configure it. Keep up the great shows

Hey Chris and Angela,
May I suggest a topic for a future FAUXshow? How about vitamins and diet supplements? It is a huge industry with both people who swear by usage, and others who shun supplements.

Other awesomeness:

• I made my first two sales on Redbubble today! https://www.redbubble.com/people/angelaf
