0:00.0 | Grumpy old geeks. A weekly talk show hosted by Brian Schultmeister and Jason |
0:09.3 | DeFilippo discussing the finer points of what went wrong on the internet and who's to blame. |
0:19.6 | Welcome to Grumpy old geeks for July 31st 2015. I am Jason DeFilippo. And I am, as of yesterday, |
0:26.0 | the currently under-employed Brian Schultmeister. What happened, Brian? Well, that wonderful, awesome project |
0:31.3 | that I've been working on for the past seven to eight months has sadly collapsed and will not be |
0:36.6 | occurring anymore. And as of yesterday, I am no longer working on it. Oh, no. Yeah, it's time |
0:42.5 | for me to find another J-O-B. Man, that sucks. It does suck. But, you know, that's the world we live in now, |

1:33.2 | It is a dog-eat dog world. Yes, it is. So if you want to get really depressed about your |
1:39.1 | about your current job, go ahead and read that. Okay, I think I'll pass. Okay. Actually, I can't pass |
1:44.8 | I already read it. Yeah. So I found this art interesting article on the kernel, which kind of |
