  1. Agreed, Beam has a lot of features that twitch is lacking, though they seem to mainly be ignoring the creative streamers.
  2. Twitch has created communities. similar to stream teams but open to anyone and able to be formed by anyone https://blog.twitch.tv/communities-93de2c1a2e4d#.8sxicy73r The twitch creative side seems like since you can only stream to one community at a time and this is taking over the hashtag based method of describing what you are doing, and the creative community is so small, That this could hurt creative streamers being found in a way that it wouldn't affect the gamer community.
  3. Dont go with an inkjet printer, Go for a cheap laser printer, while toner costs more, it doesn't dry out and you can print orders of magnitude more pages off a single toner, cost per page printed goes down. The processor is a quad core no hyper-threading, but it will run fine for most business uses, If she wants it quickly that is a decent option, if she wants to take the time to have it built you could build something for less.
  4. other than porting a closed source game, (good luck) you can run it on your Linux box, and remote desktop from your phone. but it will have inherent lag, due to network traffic and bandwidth restrictions.
  5. Personally, I would say stick to ubuntu, They have a habit of trying to make things user-friendly to non-Linux users, and have pretty decent hardware support built in.
  6. This is more of a two-part story, It looks like the Community project UBPorts will be working on porting ubuntu touch to all mobile devices, https://insights.ubuntu.com/2017/02/08/community-initiative-ubports-launches-ubuntu-fairphone-2/?utm_source=Facebook&utm_campaign=2) Device_FY17_Phone_B2C_Fairphone&utm_medium=Post and they will be starting with a phone that until now was unknown to me the FairPhone 2 http://fairphone.com I feel like opening ubuntu touch up to more devices, will go a long way towards making it a viable replacement for android. developers are unlikely to do development for a niche system, but if they see the UT user base rising, we may start seeing popular apps getting ported. As for the fairphone, I like the modular idea and believe that making a phone using responsible material sourcing. it strikes me as the environmentally, and socially responsible thing to do Specs for the FairPhone 2 are as follows Operating System Operating System Android™ 5.1, Lollipop Base platform Processors Snapdragon™ 801 Main SOC Qualcomm® MSM8974AB Application Processor Quad-Core 2.26 GHz Qualcomm® Krait 400 GPU Qualcomm® Adreno 330 GPU RAM 2 GB LPDDR3 Flash Storage 32GB eMMC5 Networks Configuration Dual-SIM, Dual-Standby (DSDS) SIM Sockets 2x Micro-SIM (3FF) Network Technology 2G / 3G / 4G GSM/GPRS/EDGE Quad-band: 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz WCDMA Bands 1 (2100 MHz), 2 (1900 MHz), 8 (900 MHz) 3G Max Downlink Speed Cat. 24 - 42.2 Mbps 3G Max Uplink Speed Cat. 6 - 5.76 Mbps (Cat. 7 capable) LTE Bands 3 (1800 MHz), 7 (2600 MHz), 20 (800 MHz) 4G Max Downlink Speed Cat. 4 - 150 Mbps 4G Max Uplink Speed Cat. 4 - 50 Mbps Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) 0,288 W/Kg (Head); 0,426 W/Kg (Body) Connectivity WLAN IEEE 802.11 b/g/n/ac WLAN Bands 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz WLAN Maximum Data Rate Up to 433 Mbps (802.11 ac) Bluetooth® 4.0 LE and earlier GPS / GNSS GPS, A-GPS, Glonass FM Radio Display Display size 5 inch Full HD Cover Glass Gorilla Glass 3 - 0.7mm (thick) Display Type LCD TFT/IPS Resolution 1080 × 1920 Pixel Density 446 ppi Main Camera Main Camera 8MP CMOS Sensor with flash Sensor Type Omnivision OV8865 - Back Side Illuminated Chipset MT6589 (quad-core) @ 1.2 Ghz Image sensor size 1/3.2 inch Pixel Size 1.4μm x 1.4μm F-number f 2.2 Front Camera Front Camera 2MP CMOS Sensor Sensor Type Omnivision OV2685 Image sensor size 1/5 inch Pixel Size 1.75μm x 1.75μm F-number f 2.8 Audio Speaker Built-in, Rear-facing Headset Jack 3.5 mm Headset Jack configuration CTIA-Standard (TRRS: LH/RH/GND/MIC) Vibration Motor with Haptics Feedback Dual Microphones Interface and Connectors Buttons Power, Volume, Camera (Programmable) USB Port Micro-B 2.0 with OTG support MicroSD Support SDHC, SDXC, UHS Notification LED 3-colour Expansion Port Backside - connectivity to external case Expansion Port Type USB 2.0 Device Interface + Power Input Sensors Ambient Light, Proximity, 3-axis Compass, 3D Accelerometer, 3D Gyroscope Battery and Power Removable Battery Pack 2420 mAh at 3.8V (9.2 Wh)
  7. I wonder if there is any chance to see Linus do a series of tests of the System76 Line of computers, I would love to have a reputable review of these before I make any large purchasing decisions. On a side note, Why hasn't Linus capitalized on his name yet? Linus tech tips could make a Linux Tech Tips Channel and it would be interesting to watch. Not to mention, It would be a direction we haven't really seen him go. That or Taking a bigger dive into the maker universe, and start doing projects, and how to videos.
  8. I currently have a 750TI I would use the new graphics card for game development. as well as a bit of gaming and streaming
  9. Since my birthday is tomorrow, This would be an awesome gift. @LinusTech How many man hours went into this video? and how long have you been sitting on it? Since it looks like it was before you finished the new shop.
  10. I could really use this for the boot drive / Write cache for my FreeNAS box!
  11. I am going to go with Tanglu Maintained by the KDE and Debian folks, but with the non-free bits thrown in (mainly multimedia codecs, drivers etc.)
  12. This seems completely messed up in my opinion. I doubt it can pass, but still! what the heck https://www.publicknowledge.org/news-blog/blogs/cosplay-goes-to-the-supreme-court/
