Eli pointed out that this was at the W2L lecture:

The purpose of this W2L is twofold. Yes, we intend it both for
students/developers and for desktop users, but not at the same time,
usually.
Of the first two talks, the first (dev tools) is specifically targeted to
students (note the hour). The second is non-technical, and is specifically
targeted
Hi all,
If I guess correctly, the lecture is for students of the SSDL laboratory.
One of the main reasons I decided to place Linux in the lab is so that the
students, especially those in the Software Engineering track, are exposed
to an operating system in which all major, serious (not toy VBA)

The other side of the coin is that the purpose of the W2L from Haifux's
point of view is PR for Haifux itself, making the experience more enjoyable
to us all, by injecting new blood of speakers and listeners. Users who care
for the Windows experience are not likely to be any of those.
Hello again.
Thanks to those who gave me valuable examples. Some of those definitely
go on board.
My (lightning) lecture, as planned, is going to give the practical
perspective on why Linux should interest students here and now. I leave
the ideological part to Monday. There are millions of

There is a possibility to play audio at double speed. if it's with video it

They are audio and video files hosted on the Technion's MMS server.
Are they allowed to download it at all?
VLC is capable to save streams locally. The problem here is that there are
some players that play audio at double speed but it's problematic with the

Are they allowed to download it at all?
No, but there are work arounds. However, it takes a full hour to
download a lecture as it can only be downloaded in realtime. And they

Sorry, I didn't notice that you mentioned it doesn't work with vlc.
