new release is now available! Check out the changelogs in our blog:

We are also sorry for the delay, since we have waited that NVIDIA releases the 590 driver, but it did not happen. This was important to properly split old hardware out.

@padresj.bsky.social Hi Father. On this week's TWiT you mentioned the main thing stopping you moving to Linux is the need to run Adobe apps. Have you looked at the WinApps project? It works really well. Enabled me to switch and still use Word.

Hi @paullewismoney.bsky.social & @felicityhannah.bsky.social, hope all is well with you. On Saturday my podcast app received Moneybox. It carried an important warning about scam texts re Winter Fuel Allowance. Is it in your power to end the 4 week delay? It would help listeners. Thx #moneyboxeffect

If you want to avoid paying care home costs you can put your home in a #trust and then let your neighbours' council tax pay.
Shame on you if you did this and it's hilarious local authorities now call this deliberate divestment of assets & ignore the trust. BBC report:

@paullewismoney.bsky.social Hi Paul, looks like the Moneybox podcast feed has stopped being updated. Last episode 275mtg August. All other R4 podcasts are still coming through ok.
Looks like a glitch with the feed for Moneybox?

This is me & my community. Many of my friends and family who are visually impaired use Be My Eyes with the Meta Ray-Ban glasses on a daily basis. Reading bus timetables, menus, identifying the contents of canned goods. Super good for independence. #lowvision #blind #ai

@paullewismoney.bsky.social Hi Paul, have you covered the emerging problems relating to Family Protection Trusts. Sold by solicitors as a method to avoid care costs in future. Seems like the next mis-selling scandal.
