Knightwise is joined this week by KD to discuss the general ideas around how we can approach technology with a more intentional attitude. With the advent of algorithms and the attention economy it’s more important than ever that we learn how to make technology work for us, instead of the other way around.

For two decades the era of “Linux on the Desktop” has been just around the corner. This week Knightwise takes us through a discussion of how he’s using Linux to drive some tasks for work, and how the pandemic-driven changes of 2020 might have helped push more Linux to the forefront.

Podcasting has always been a way for those who don’t otherwise have a platform, to get out and share what’s on their mind, share their knowledge and experiences, and do it without having to buy your own small-town radio station. This week Knightwise takes us on another walk through the Belgian countryside to tell you why you should record your own podcast.
