HPR1468: A Whole Lot of Nothing: Chromebook EOL, CentOS WTF, Non Mainstream GNU/Linux Distros and more...

This episode covers a little bit of everything. The end of life for Chromebooks and how that hurts in some ways, hacker public radio topics, CentOS and Red Hat joining, participate with a non mainstream GNU/Linux Distros, and much more.

Here is a brief list of the topics and links covered in this episode:

• XFCE and Xubuntu is good, Crouton for Google Chromebook
• Chromebook EOL, WTF? I like the hardware but I want to use it until I'm tired of using it, I don't want Apple or Google telling me otherwise.
• Distro wise what's next? I'm not going to want to stick with Ubuntu much longer.
• CentOS, WTF? So on the server side what's next?
• Building your own distro from the ground up. It is a lot of work.
• Debian is by far still the best distro to stick with. I hope they don't jump ship.
• Bastion hosts are long gone, thank you and sorry Marcus J. Ranum. Make way for clusters, customized systems, but generic and widely supported desktops. Sounds like Slackware to me, right?
