PostX Gnu/Linux news

PostX Gnu/Linux v. 0.4.4 will arrive within few weeks. It will be still based upon DebIan Jessie. The upgrade will include all the current PostX Gnu/Linux programs. There will also be some new entries. Vlc will return as Veritas Player.  I wrote Vertitas Player to be a Gui for Vlc. Coding has been done with Python. So far, things look good and stable.  The Kernel will also receive an upgrade. I have compiled a 4.9.30 version with a better Wi-Fi and driver support. Currently I am testing the stability of everything. The repositories will likely receive upgrades by the end of this week.

And here is a screenshot of Vertias Player.

Veritas Player is a Gtk3 Gui that will require (at least) vlc-nox package. The design will remain lightweight.

New programs coming and some other news

For some time, I have been wanting to write Crosslinker FM for QT5. The previous is now being done and a new pure QT5 file manager named as Sequence FM will arrive very soon. Sequence FM will introduce many upgrades/features and it will be very fast. For Sequence FM I chose a more traditional approach when it came to the interface. In other words, you should be able to get used to it easily. I am still coding features, which means  that the complete list will be revealed upon release.

The second newcomer is HTML-GTK Player, which means that HTML5 playback will be enabled easily for Youtube and Dailymotion – and there will be no longer a need to use Flash. Continue reading

Techtimejourney going through Javascript & Jquery transition

It is time to upgrade again. Techtimejourney websites will go dynamic with Javascript and Jquery. The transition will take about 2 to 3 weeks – since alongside the transition there are plenty of new things that are comming soon (like PostX Gnu/Linux 0.4.2). As I upgrade, I will make sure that there will be non-Javascript versions of the websites available as well.  The upgrade strategy is to code the new pages mainly with HTML5, CSS, Javascript and Jquery. The previous is done because it makes optimization a bit more faster and easier than doing things directly within the WordPress backend.

However, WordPress backend will be upgraded to become dynamic – provided that a decent Javascript and non-Javascrpt balance is found.

And finally, here is some data and upgrade plans about the ” soon to be upgraded pages”
