I would like to use this channel to give back to the community what I have learned from others. I cover a wide range of topics on computing technology from Home Server setup on a budget, Linux for general use (workstation, server and development), High Performance Computing and modern storage options at scale.

I publish videos at least twice a week on a wide range of computing related topics

The FreeBSD team has released their 14.0 version of FreeBSD just in time for their 30th anniversary! All in all its a good release, they are really trying to make things easier to install, and it may take them a couple of tries to work out some of the bugs in the release. However I was able to work around them all except for one, when in a virtual machine it won't disengage the mouse and keyboard from the view window. I need to check to see what is conflicting with the key sequence and hopefully that will resolve the issue. All-in-All a very nice distribution of one of my favorite first time open source operating systems I ever used. 00:00 - Intro 00:42 - Overview of FreeBSD 04:02 - What is FreeBSD? 04:47 - What's New in 14.0 08:02 - Requirements 08:18 - Desktop Environments 08:55 - FreeBSD Features 11:12 - UEFI Support 11:54 - Installing FreeBSD 14.0 Hardware Mac Mini M1 - https://amzn.to/3NDQj9F Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Extreme (Daily Driver Linux) - https://amzn.to/3PkSYpK AMD Rysen Machine (Currently Unplugged) Khadas VIM 3 - https://amzn.to/3NjJmt3 NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano - https://amzn.to/3NcLpyZ Odroid N2+ Raspberry Pi 4 Intel Nuc 10 - https://amzn.to/46e6l15 Intel Nuc 12 - https://amzn.to/3NCYxPj Network Aruba Instant On 1930 24-Port Gb Ethernet - https://amzn.to/46e6l15 Video Equipment Panasonic GH6 Camera - https://amzn.to/3PoUKX1 Panasonic GH4 Camera Blackmagic Design ATEM Extreme Pro ISO - https://amzn.to/3Pkma08 Blackmagic Design Hyperdeck Studio HD Mini - https://amzn.to/42JY5mt Blackmagic Design Hyperdeck Shuttle - https://amzn.to/42Tdzoi Blackmagic Design Cloud Pod - https://amzn.to/3qW14va Audio Equipment Shure SM7b - https://amzn.to/3qQ7Qm7 Universal Volt 276 - https://amzn.to/3Nfe9He Software Rogue Amoeba Audio Hijack 3 Rogue Ameoba Loopback Blackmagic Design Davinci Studio 18 - https://amzn.to/43ZjPMm Support me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/DJWare Follow me: Twitter @djware55 Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/don.ware.7758 Gitlab: https://gitlab.com/djware27 #freebsd #freebsd14 #BSDlike
I received the iStorage DatAshur PRO+C for review some time ago and have been using it on a daily basis as my Tails OS boot device. I am using the Persistent Store from Tails to save and keep files I am working on, and it has been such a great experience. This review and test measure of the device clearly shows how much faster it is over the older Pro2 that I purchased with my own money. Thank you iStorage for allowing me to review this product. More information about the iStorage DatAshure PRO+C can be found here: https://istorage-uk.com/usa/product/datashur-proc/ The Data Sheet for the PRO+C is here: https://istorage-uk.com/usa/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2023/07/datAshur-PROC_datasheet.pdf The Manual for the PRO+C is here: https://istorage-uk.com/usa/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2023/07/datAshur-PROC_User-Manual_Multilingual_v1.0.pdf
I received this product for review from MakerFabs, it is the MaTouch ESP32-S3 Rotary IPS Display with Touch 2.1“ ST7701. I will be showing the specs, documentation to help you get started with the device, and some sample applications which demonstrate the features and capabilities of the machine. My experience with this device was a joy to work with and use. I am planning to put this into operation here in the studio as a way to display status on my servers (perhaps using a stop-light) diagram to show various states throughout the day.

This one took awhile to get through with 4 new immutable versions of Fedora 39 (not counting Core). We now have choices to run Silverblue (GNOME), Kinote (KDE), Onyx (Budgie) or Sericea (Sway). Which is great, I talk about some of the new features which are available across those different SPINS and even test a few of them out to see if they work or not. Many improvements have been made and for the most part for the good. All-in-all a very positive view of things coming from the Immutable developers of Fedora.

In this video I use a combination of many AI services to generate this video, starting with ChatGPT-4 for a script, which I editing after fact checking what AI said...Then I generated an AI photo of what I might have looked like in a parallel universe. I recorded my voice using the script which I edited (heavily) from ChatGPT-4. I pushed that into D-ID to generate the animation for the "face" and finally I moved the whole thing to InVideo in order to generate the Broll for this video. I wish InVideo had the ability to customize more of the sequences, but it doesn't and it has a nasty habit of changing the timings on the video if you modify the script....but it worked out ok, I then used the AI inside of DaVinci Resolve to work on the placement of the Broll, face Narrative and attempted to hand tune the timing, which I got close but not exact on....I am learning as I go as this is still pretty new to me Look for a video down the road sometime on a complete how-to if you want to get yourself involved in playing around with this stuff, I can tell you its fun if you like being on the leading edge of things, fortunately alot of it is working ok these days.

Is the idea of open source in the 21st Century obsolete? A noble idea destined for the ash heap of history? What if all of the package maintainers adopted this new idea of charging for support annually and charging everyone who used their software to use it? This trend is not one I am liking too much...and here we go again AI Artwork: A Network Operations Center as I remember them from the 1990's when firewalls started to appear in the network infrastructure.
