TuxJam 122 – Refined rEFInd

Al, Andrew, Kevie and Dave unite once more and settle down for a pleasant evening of beers and chat about goodness that is free and open source, or creative and common. They begin, as always, with a distrowatch dabble and thereafter split into two teams of two. Team Nerd, Andrew and Al, delve into the mystical world of boot managers with a look at rEFInd currently maintained by Rod Smith. Meanwhile, Team Social, Dave and Kevie, converse with Nik, the author of Pachli, the client for Mastodon-like services, part of a Nivenly Foundation, that we reviewed back in TuxJam 114. On Saturday 2 August you are cordially invited to join us and many others for our next Podcrawl, details of which are posted here. Just prior to our recording we learned that there will be no OggCamp in 2025 (boo!) but there will in 2026 (yay!) on 25-26 April, at the same venue as last time, the Pendulum Hotel, Manchester. We conclude with a roundup of feedback and we encourage you, dear listener, to submit any feedback you may have.
