[upbeat music] Hello, and welcome to Linux Lads, episode 165.
Just me and Mike this week.
How are you, Mike?
I'm very good, thank you.
You yourself?
Not too bad.
I am currently melting.
Oh.
As we know, the melting point of an Irishman is 22 degrees.
And it's now 23, so you're-
[laughs] No, I'm not, not really enjoying all this hot weather that's been going on.
I also got to experience the hottest temperature ever recorded in France n- just a few weeks ago.
So [laughs] that was lovely.
That was, uh, pleasant.
[laughs] I think I sweat, I sw- sweated out about a kilo in weight in about two days.
[laughs]
You were the wrong kind of baked there.
That's not good.
[laughs] Yeah, so, uh, yeah, I, I can't wait until it gets a bit cooler, to be honest.
So, uh, and I'm also recovering from food poisoning, so if I seem a bit off this episode, everybody knows why.
[laughs] So as I mentioned, it's just me and Mike this week.
Amileth and Connor are busy with, uh, other things in their lives.
We wish them all the best with that.
So this week, me and Mike are just, we're just gonna have one of those episodes where we just talk about whatever we've been looking at recently, whatever we've been learning, tinkering with, et cetera.
Mike, I'm gonna go to you first.
Tell us more about that.
