small update to the podcast

Hi all.
Well this is a note to all of you.
I was just informed about the fact keybase shutdown its public service quietly this month.
Blocking access to everyone bar those in the keybase universe.
I never signed up to this and the client is really inaccessible.
As a result, I deleted all files on keybase this morning followed shortly by my account.
I never signed up for another closed cloud systeem and I
‘m not starting now.
Jared when you read this please edit my podcast page on here to remove any keybase link because that no longer works.
Oh well thats a little more space I get back on my hard drive.
If a critical site some of the geek hacker load on a forum use wasn’t hosted by keybase I wouldn’t have known.
Keybase quietly shut down and posted on reddit saying there was no value in the service.
My answer to them would be simply that they never made an effort to make their client work nicely and that included updating the file system drivers.
I liked their public service it was about the only thing that made us tolerate the system at all.
I am wandering now just how many of us users regretably will have to say a big fag you and leave.
I mean there is no point if the web access doesn’t work.
The client has always been a joke to use and lets face it I am not a big user.
If I really need to I’ll pay for google drive storage on the cloud like my dad and mum do and then share links.
One thing is for sure, keybase has just lost a customer and now we know we will tell our friends.
Pritty much think that none of us blink hackers will use this system anymore.
Just happy I was able to get out so easily.
