The version of Ansible that Red Hat packages in the "Ansible Engine" channel is available in the configmanagement repository on the CentOS mirrors, alternatively one can install a newer version of Ansible from EPEL.

Apple Watch uses Bluetooth to communicate with your phone, not WiFi (unless it’s out of Bluetooth range, in which case it will connect to a known network if possible, then LTE if you own a cellular model).

I really like my 2015 MBP, but outside the dated hardware in comparison I still think the 2012 model was "the best". Yes, it was thicker and heavier - but I didn't have to worry about buying as much RAM as I thought I'd

The concept is nice, but every time somebody has tried to implement it there has been some miserable failure either from a business or technical sense. See the Be File System for the former, and WinFS for the latter. In fact, the only succe
