CLEAN UP THAT EFI

Are you a Distro Hopper? Have you noticed that you have old Distro's listed in your UEFI when you boot into BIOS? I have a fix for that. I did forget to "say" one thing in the video that you'll need to do after deleting an old Distro Folder in the /boot/efi/EFI folder: Open your Terminal and enter "sudo update-grub" (without quotes!), enter your password, and let 'er rip! Other than that...

I also talk about Shotcut's ability and speed if you use the "Hardware Encoding" function and you have a GPU (non-integrated graphics card). It's a thing of beauty!

How the heck did I get Nautilus to give me Administrator Rights to a folder or file? You'll need to install a nifty little tool called, "Nautilus-Admin". It's Foss shows you how: https://itsfoss.com/open-nautilus-as-administrator/
