  63 – Audio Antics and Arch Adventures: The 67 Chronicles

  In this lively episode of Linux OTC, we kick off with some unexpected technical hiccups when Majid’s audio takes a turn for the bizarre, sparking a spirited debate about the causes. As we navigate through the audio chaos, the conversation shifts to the fascinating evolution of smartphones, exploring how they’ve transformed our daily lives.

  Later, we dive into the intricacies of Arch Linux and debate the merits and pitfalls of using the AUR (Arch User Repository). Battery life also makes a brief appearance as we share tips and experiences to help listeners maximize their device’s endurance.

  Amidst the tech talk, one amusing cultural meme—“67”—keeps making its way back into the conversation, adding a humorous twist to our discussions. Join us for a blend of tech insights, friendly banter, and plenty of laughs!
