Linux Today - now with audio

Posted by HeUnique on from the broadcast dept.

Our friends at Linux today started today to broadcast in MP3 format, and they need "beta" testers to get some feedback. (you'll need mpg123 program or the latest RealPlayer G2, or X11amp/XMMS to hear it)

    They're just different. I doubt Slashdot would be as lively as it is if it had 40+ posts per day. It wouldn't be as worthwhile as a news filter either. And they post a lot more of the "Linux is stupid; no one would write free programs" stories on Linuxtoday. If all those got posted here . . .

  2. Re:Pronounciation by John+Campbell · · Score: 2

    "Leenooks" is the correct (Finnish) pronunciation, but I, for one, have never been able to get my American throat around those Scandinavian vowels...

    The accepted Americanized pronunciation is "Lynn-ucks", and that's actually how Linus usually seems to pronounce it (I'm basing this observation on his keynote speech two Linux Expos back). We probably won't steal your lunch money if you say "Lie-nucks", but we may point and laugh and throw offal. :)
