A new video in both our T^4 series of video lightning talks with tips, tricks, tools, and toys is also a video in the R^4 series as it revisits a topic previously covered in the latter: how to (more easily) get (binary) packages onto your Ubuntu system. In fact, we show it in three different ways.
The slides are here.

The next video in our T^4 series of video lightning talks with tips, tricks, tools, and toys (where we had seen the announcement, shells sessions one, two, and three, as well as byoby sessions one and two) is now up at YouTube.

Another video in our T^4 series of video lightning talks with tips, tricks, tools, and toys (where we had seen the announcement, shells sessions one, two, and three, as well as one byobu session) is now up at YouTube. It goes a little deeper in the wonderful byobu and persistent sessions with multiple concurrent accesses illustrating why it is called both a ‘text-based window manager’ and a ‘terminal multiplexer’:

For way too long now something I had meant to start was a little series about tips, tricks, tools, and toys. I had mentioned the idea a few times to a friend or two, and generally received a thumbs up or a ‘go for it’. But it takes a little to get over the humb and get going. And it turns out that last week’s r^4 talk on upgrading to R 4.0.0 hit some latent demand as we are now at 1400 views on YouTube. Wowser.
So hence without further ado, let’s kick off T^4. Similar in spirit to R^4, but broader in scope and going beyond R. The opening slides explaining what we plan to do are here, and the video link follows below:
With some luck we should have the first actual talk next week. See you then!
