Ah I see. I totally missed that. So that's quite interesting. Because on the host I generally run Ubuntu 18.04. Because I know how it works and can ensure it's secured and up to date. Same with someone with familiarity with Redha

What is eating you alive? You're likely working for an organisation trying to push their software or services onto other people. Open source adovocacy has the same kind of ideas from another perspective. There isn't some magic ide

Should I be using CoreOS for my containers? Generally I've been using either Ubuntu or Alpine as bases. Also it looks to be Red Hat based? Is there a Debian equivalent?

I remember that part of the Windows 2000 source code leaked years ago. I'm presuming people looked at it for dubious keys.

If I'm rendering, I should use cloud computing? Like an artist is supposed to use a remote desktop to do 3D modelling? Or an engineer doing CAD? Or a video editor creating 4k video? There are a lot of professionals that need powerful c

I had some representatives from ARM and NXP come and give a demo of some ARM boxes. Now these were in the context of white box customer premises networking equipment, but what I found quite interesting was that these machines all supported

Is it possible to get it working with GUI or are you using it for automation?

Intel have a co-marketing brand they call "Ultrabook" where most components are Intel which prevents laptop manufacturers from using the same chassis/model for AMD. Their new "Project Athena" might be the same thing

Replaceable CPU? I thought the NUCs use BGA laptop chips. It's not going to be a cheap box.

Would their Optane department care as long as they're selling SSDs? What's the business dynamic of Intel like? Would they be fine with customers using them with AMD CPUs or would they delay the product?

What's the point of this all or nothing attitude? This looks like a move to getting better support. The alternative is getting nothing.

Tbh I find the Ubuntu message of the day quite useful. The "adverts" are benign. Right now it says to check out microk8s and also to look at livepatch. But logging in and seeing a summary of: loaf, disk usage, processes, number of

Interesting, I've heard of the DB before but haven't given it much research. I'll check it out.

Hmm, well the scenario I was thinking of was having database writes sped up, in the sense of reducing network latency between the user and the server. I guess the syncing aspect is going to be most complicated part. I was thinking that I co

Perhaps. The Phillips Hue lights use an open standard, I bought a usb device that could talk it (ZigBee Light Link) but then it turned out that production devices used a master key. Here's a discussion of the master key being leaked:

This story is about Google not wanting to have a browser choice screen for the bundled Chrome application to give a choice of either Yandex or Google search??? It doesn't sound that's all there is here. Perhaps a Yandex app store?

You're not in the US, so why did you bring up Google Fiber? Also if you're not in the US why are you talking about AT&T being forced to take away your ADSL? Also the poster you replied to specifically said ADSL1 which has been

If you're running Linux, virt-manager works fine for a lot of scenarios. If you want to provision a server as a VM host, Proxmox free version is pretty good but you have to manually update it.

Sandboxing with randomisation is what we need. Like a VM or a container to launch a browser. A canvas fingerprint needs to be different everytime it's calculated.

Google give Firefox Android users some shitty version designed for Opera Mini back in 2010. It's intentional with some bullshit "oh we don't want to break compatibility by mistake" excuse.

Telecoms companies operate with license in the countries they operate. The concept of "lawful intercept" is baked into any product they build, operate or sell. That's just how it works.

From what I understand they would give you a bunch of binary blobs or either have a fork of the Linux kernel with a lot of patches to get the device working. So they may support a single old version because the effort of upstreaming the sup
