This week: our first real golf game reviewed (and yes: it is the best golf game available for Linux), Valve announces and begins accepting pre-orders for its Q2-scheduled handheld monster (the Steam Deck), Idiotic Embittered Fuckwit Sweeney of Epic promises more compatability with EAC (do not believe the lies) and Linux users, and an urgent plea and explanation for why, if you are opposed to vaccination for political reasons, I offer a timely and moral suggestion for your health - stolen straight from Fox News.

BLGP EP 351: Steam Deck, PGA Tour 2k21 Review

This is a total wip ofthe real arrangement i'm doing of this compo. This is also a no-mix. My original, demi-classical sketch has kind of evolved into a more "modern" sounding thing (damn ye, dr octo rex... grrr...)... it has its moments.

In a fiat world, everything is subject to change and that’s exactly what happened in Argentina one recent november night.   Andreas, Stephanie and I talk Cryptocurrency and Corruption, Black Markets and Opportunity.
Then, CoinPunk is a project funded in part by a grant from the Bitcoin Foundation.  Simply put, they allow Bitcoin payments on mobile devices without needing a native application.  As we sometimes do, LTB is happy to share the first transaction ever made using this important innovation.

Later,  Andreas is in Argentina for the Latin America Bitcoin Conference.  He caught up with Manuel Arraoz, the founder and chief developer of ProofOfExistence.com, the Block-chain Notary Service to talk about fixing moments in time, how Bitcoin 0.9 will change the game for meta-services using it and more.

And finally, we step back a bit from Bitcoin and look for a moment at the larger world we live in.  Bitcoin is disruptive financial tech that hasn’t yet been stopped because those who wish it ill can’t find a head to chop off or a body to drag into court.   BSS has been thinking about where all of this is heading, and it’s an idea worth hearing.  We end todays show with Silicon Valley’s Ultimate Exit.

Best Linux Games Podcast Episode3 2014-11-01

This week, we do our first-ever remotely recorded episode of the podcast as we do the show from Bellingham, WA, where we are attending Linux Fest Northwest 2016! Our big game of the week?: "Speedrunners" has come to Linux (the much beloved sidescrolling hyper competitive online 4 player run/jump/superhero-footracer). Plus, we cover several other releases new for this week, including 2 space shooters that have us slavering with anticipatory-space-shooter-murder-glee. www.bestlinuxgames.com

BLGP Ep 78: SpeedRunners & LFNW 2016

For our INCOMPREHENSIBLY ACTUALLY REAL AND NOT MISCOUNTED one hundredth episode of the best linux games podcast, this week we feature the very latest on the controversial tsunami surrounding the two best games available for the operating system... that's right: "Tux Racer," and the visuall,y stunning state-of-the-art VR-Enabled MMORPG, "Nethack." We also take a moment to thank all of our friends and listeners, take a moment to fire crack Engineer Ivor Molina live on the air and mid-broadcast, and - by the time all the dust settled from our coverage of these, the only two games available for the GNU/Linux general computing platform, and the only two titles released in the last twenty years that can make that claim - we somehow manage to squeeze in a little news item about some stupid gimmicky rip-off called "Steam" and take a good, healthy thirty seconds to laugh at its expense as it is certaintly doomed to complete failure and will never ever bring anything good to this, our beloved house that Torvalds, Stallman, Aho, Kernighan, and Wein-guy built. ALL THIS AND MUCH MORE! Happy One Hundredth Episode!
