I go to Slovakia a few times a year and always enjoy the Vinea and the Kofola. Much better than Cola but not as good as Kvass. ;) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kvass

Pretty much everything. :) L4-L7 load balancing, distributed DNS, SSL offload, WAF, DPI, data centre firewall and other things. With a nice WebUI to configure all that. The Tcl iRules allow you to hook into pretty much any stage of the requ

As a counterpoint: I have a reasonably complex app that gets data via WebSocket pub/sub and dashboards it, does things like stream logs from remote devices, open up SSH consoles, draw canvas diagram with network map etc. It’s split up

No one is entitled to use other people's work free of obligations, although they are sometimes allowed to do so through the generosity (and sometimes naivety) of others.

And in no way does that "prevent free non-commercial use" as you originally claimed. If you do not like the obligation it places on you in exchange for using the work of other people then don't use it.

Your belief is somewhat misplaced. ;) I just mean I leave the video with the claimant monetising it. It is very rare that they would chose to block the audio (except for some that are blocked only in Germany which has really insane copyrigh

I have not tried Arch. Sid is quite stable but things will occasionally break (once or twice a year). Never so bad that it needed a rebuild (touch wood) but enough to be scary if you don't know enough to keep a cool head about it. Late

Express is not actually that much slower - I tested it when I wrote a light-weight Express replacement[1] for my own use (which was mainly about reducing the number of dependency packages from 40+ to 2). IIRC the slowest part was the defaul
