    212: Bonding Networks and Breaking Games | Linux Out Loud 114
    Aug 23 2025
    We’re back from the break and diving headfirst into the chaos! In this episode, Matt drones on (literally) about surveying land with budget-friendly flyers, Nate finds his PIM jam again with Thunderbird, and Wendy wrangles Starlink + T-Mobile into a load-balanced beast. We also chat about AI-driven gaming, 3D-printing Framework laptop armor, and what to do with a growing stack of old Dell laptops. Spoiler: the banter glitches gloriously off-topic, as always.
