Episode Details

An "ask us anything" episode, inspired by Ask The Hosts. The lads start by discussing the appropriate age for kids to have a connected device, then get serious comparing cupcakes and muffins. This is followed by talking about immutable operating systems, replacement OSs and the weather.

The Questions

• @linuxlads what age should do you think a child should have ownership of an internet connected device such as a mobile phone or computer? If you were a parent, would you implement some “lockdown” on their devices? Do you think your approach would be significantly different from the parents of your kids peers?

  • @coraven

• @techcelt @linuxlads @killyourfm @felimwhiteley @sil Cupcakes vs Muffins? 😎😆

  • @TuxDigital

• Immutable operating systems are the future of the desktop, change my mind

  • @WalJT

• @linuxlads I have two questions. If you could not use your main OS, which one would you pick and why? The second question is, what is your ideal weather? Since I moved to the UK from Costa Rica, people ask me if I hate the weather, but I find it pleasant, It rains less and it never gets too hot.
