Welcome to The Dick Turpin Roadshow, a humorous look at the Open Source community from comments on social networks, peoples blogs and websites to the mad bag lady on the street corner. Some, if not everything, said here is probably the fiction of our warped minds so there’s little point in getting upset about anything we say. Hopefully you’ll find us funny and entertaining, there will be some rude words so if you have a weak heart or are easily offended this is not for you.

So the project Cyanogen that started off as a community collaboration and then went all corporate has teamed up with Microsoft. Ubuntu 15.04 released. Literally no one noticed. Matt Snuck a peak in to Canonicals windows in London and no one there, again! Debian 8 Release. Comparison to 15.04? Matt's Cat Karou brings the ungrateful Matt a selection of gifts.

We really should have opened with a barbers quartet as the show you thought was based on Linux turns into a shaven discourse. First up Pete gives a shout out to Peter Robinson for fixing his webcam and warns him not to visit the 14th century! Microsoft Open Sources .NET but the License looks either a bit dodgy or not worth the paper it's printed on? So it's not very Linuxy but Pete is really taken with Detroit Soup a movement that awards Micro grants to creative projects. People gather and pay a minimum $5.00 entrance fee (You can pay more if you like.) hopefuls give a presentation as to why they should get the micro grant and you get some food while listening. At the end you all vote on who should get the money in the bucket. Simple.

So before we get started sadly this episode effectively died after about twenty minutes, having said that we have managed to put an episode together with the help of some corn plasters, super glue and a box of staples. The only news story you'll hear the team discuss is the BBC dropping WMA due to licensing costs and switching to more open MPEG-DASH. We then went on to discuss Lenovo making your newly purchased equipment vunerable with 'superfish' the discussion moved on to the NoSQL injection vulnerability of 40,000 MongoDB databases. Linus announces Linux 4.0 this was a really good discussion, honestly. :-) We save the best till last. The headline was that Mark Shuttleworth admitted Untiy was a mistake but after some discussion we admit that's not really what he was saying. South London Makerspace Now this is possibly the biggest shame of the whole show, if only you could have heard Pete tearing Matt a new arsehole during this section for saying that he had no right to claim any kudos seeing as he hadn't attended much lately. Anyway the great news is the GLA (Greater London Authority) has granted the Makerspace £20,000.00!

The GPG Encryption project nearly runs out of money until some of the big boys come to its rescue and hand over a load of dosh. Pete and Matt discuss whether all projects should come under a single umbrella such as The Linux Foundation. RaspberryPi 2 announced but can you in fact get more bang for your buck with the plethora of devices out there? The guys muse that the Raspberry Pi project seems to be moving away from its original reason for coming to the market. Main TopicPhilip Newborough has announced the end of CrunchBang we did try to blackmail him onto the show but clearly he was holding out for a better offer. :-D It began in South Africa Huzzah! Finally a phone! While Matt and Pete are chuffed to bits that Canonical finally listened to #tdtrs and got some stock phones they're less than impressed with what you actually get in the box.

So we're back with a little bit of a low key show but then it has been a month since the last release. All change in the podcasting world: With Linux Outlaws throwing the towel in Pete and Matt discuss Fab and Dan's all new? GDR although Pete keeps thinking it's DDR. We then hear the further sad news that the Full Circle podcast has packed it in. And finally that UUPC are looking for a presenter? As Tony Whitmore has packed it in. Matt tells us how the EFF have released an app but refuse to agree to Apple's terms. Pete just thinks it's a steak meal. Matt tells us how Chromebooks outsell windows laptops Pete gets a touch over excited about a game he's says he's thought up.

Be warned this episode may not be safe for work or baby otters. Just what has Pete got in his sack? And how many times can Matt squeeze "Linux!" into this episode? Rather than giving you a load of outtakes the team has decided to do a semi normal show but with some surprises thrown in. First up are you ready for Christmas? We hear about how Matt hardly has room for a piece of A4 paper in his multi million pound flat "Nothing big for pity's sake!" So the one and only opening story for discussion is Revisiting open source social networking alternatives which Matt seems to think Pete will be interested in? He's a G+ fanboy you young impressionable fool Main Topic Perfect Distro: Pete and Matt tell us about their Fedora 21 upgrade experiences. It began in South Africa We kick off with Swapnil Bhartiya's article Unity 8 coming in 15.04 and how it will give you a desktop like experience on the desktop. Next up is Mark Shuttleworth's blog post talking about Core, Snappy and Transactions South London Makerspace The wall has finally been built and Matt claims all the glory for the new shutter door controlled by an RF card and running on an Arduino come Raspberry Pi.

Somehow we open the show with a party political broadcast with Pete begging people to take UKIP seriously and realise the threat they pose. Apple are making sure you only run their approved hardware by disabling TRIM on 3rd party SSD's but Pete couldn't care less as he dosen't use their isolationist software. Matt tells us how a 5 year old has passed Microsoft's MCP exam and we mull over whether the exam is too easy, the lad was coached till the answers was burnt on his brain or maybe he's just a clever bugger. Unless you've living under a rock you'll have heard about the first crowd funded Open Source Tablet. Matt is not overly impressed and says that by the time you get your grubby hands on one the hardware will be out of date. Pete meanwhile tries to impress Matt with the comparison chart. Mozilla switches to Yahoo for default search in US, duckduckgo search option and has 90% funding for last year from Google but does anyone really care what search engine Mozilla uses? Matt's Cat Karou shows Matt how to carpet swim. South London Makerspace There's now a new wall and we hear how water and the new BT Router does not mix.

"Fook off and good riddance!" Yep Linux Outlaws or as we've always called them "The show that cannot be named" has finally given up pinching all our best ideas and announced they will be hanging up their microphones at the end of the year. Pete and Matt talk about how terrible their show was and how they was lucky LugRadio packed it in but also that they had absolutely nothing to do with throwing Pete and Matt together. And it's still kicking off over at Debian as Joey Hess announces he's leaving the project which Matt seems to think is no major issue while Pete seems far too impressed with Joey's dial-up skills. The FSF announce the launch of a copyleft site designed to be a focal point for information and guidance for those needing that type of license. Yet again Matt is not overly impressed and Pete thinks it's just some sort of Creative Commons clone. Happy birthday to you, happy Birthday Firefox happy 10 years birthday. It began in South Africa Canonical-nee-Ubuntu announce they are to sell a Tablet! Whoopee! But wait, all is not as it seems. South London Makerspace Same old same old, Matt needs help.

This episode Pete and Matt talk about their new found admiration for Laura Cowen and we also hear how Pete was picked up by some strange Aussie bloke while out walking in Oxford. As we keep telling everyone, our show is not just about Linux and with that in mind this episode kicks off with a discussion about a program on the television called The Apprentice which nobody will be surprised to learn is one of Pete's favourites. Having promised Corenominal AKA Sergeant Bilko that we would not cover systemd we decide, as per usual, to break our word and do the story anyway and cover Ian Jackson's tactical call for a GR (General Resolution) vote for Debian Jessie and how some of the Dev's are considering forking Debian. The highlight of this discussion is when Pete actually defends Mark Shuttleworth! Have we become brand name (Google AKA Nexus) slaves? Pete tells us how he mentioned on G+ that he'd like a Tesco's Hudl 2 and was promptly shunned by the Google Nexus brigade. Matt's cat Main Topic OggCamp Roundup: Matt can't really tell us anything as he was hardly there! So Pete fills in with the "I'm only paying £15!" curry story, the Geeks giving two fingers bus story and not forgetting Matt and Pete reminiscing about the worst landlady in Britain. It began in South Africa No news is good news: So where's the news from Canonical? Matt and Pete discuss the tumble-weed blowing across the Ubuntu plains and Pete confesses he may have misjudged Jono Bacon's marketing skills. What's in a name? Matt comes up with a far better name for the latest Ubuntu release: Voluptuos Veloceraptor but the team discuss the real fact that there's only four more names left! South London Makerspace And finally they have a new home now Matt needs money and donations of paint to tart the place up.
