OBS over torrent

Posted on by Paolo Redaelli

I got to find a feasible alternative to Big Brothers such as Youtube and Facebook.

There are many alternatives. Theres is peertube. Ok, ok, it is true free-as-in-freedom and I even found instances in Italy but it seems that live streaming is not their aim.

Ideally what I would like to do is live streaming over (bit)torrent and it seems that some smart guys has already thought about it: webtorrent.io, the technology used by peertube is used also by Live-torrent.

Ideally I would like stream live transmission mixed using OBS-studio

Windows 10 Is Getting Linux Files Integration In File Explorer – Slashdot

Windows 10 Is Getting Linux Files Integration In File Explorer (theverge.com) 38 

Is it just me or someone else smells the smell of “Embrace, Extend, Extinguish“?

Posted by BeauHD from the it’s-about-time dept.
Microsoft is planning to fully integrate Linux file access into the built-in File Explorer. The Verge reports: A new Linux icon will be available in the left-hand navigation pane in File Explorer, providing access to the root file system for any distros that are installed in Windows 10. The icon that will appear in File Explorer is the famous Tux, the penguin mascot for the Linux kernel. Microsoft is testing the Linux File Explorer integration in a new build of Windows 10 that’s available for testers today. Previously, Windows 10 users would have to manually navigate to a UNC path to get access to Linux files from the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). If you have WSL enabled, then the Tux will appear in File Explorer, and Microsoft is now seeking feedback on the integration before it’s finalized as part of a future Windows 10 update. The software maker will ship this update to all Windows 10 users later this year.
