@nprofile…0tvd Perfect time to fork it and name it Linux Subsystem for Windows like it should be.

@nprofile…zezf Just a reminder that SpaceX is still back in 2022… they were supposed to have already sent HLS to the moon. Seems like doggy should cut SpaceX for “fraud, waste, and abuse”.

Wait. TikTok can be un-banned but Huawei is still banned? And there’s still potentially a TP-Link ban? Make it make sense. #tiktok

I’m just going to go ahead and say it: if you need a bridge, your protocols aren’t compatible. Mastodon is software that runs a protocol. Imagine if you needed different browsers for different websites. Some people like Chrome, others Firefox. Each have their own features but they all speak HTTP. Different protocols aren’t the answer.

So Redis is no longer open source... well, it is, but it's no longer BSD licensed. It's now licensed under a Greed License: "You can't use the software if you make money unless we also make money." Naturally, there is fork of the last BSD licensed version: https://codeberg.org/redict/redict

Found this article from May 2005 calling “ransomware” a scam. Which, I mean, it is. How to combat this fancy new attack? “Physical backups should be made of all critical data, he said, and stored in a different place than with the computer.” Imagine that. Exactly what I’ve been saying. https://web.archive.org/web/20050816022754/http://www.cnn.com/2005/TECH/internet/05/25/ransomware/index.html

@npub1wup…ydzp Now the real question... can you revive ancient Chromebooks with ChromeOS Flex?

@npub18hd…kf64 Given what I've seen, it's a mix of experimental tech that won't exist next year (or even 5 years) and tech geared towards businesses. Like on Instagram, I saw a demo of a Bobcat front loader with some screen overlay for construction. I can only count on 3 fingers the number of "average consumers" I know who own a Bobcat. And I don't need all 3 fingers.

CES is less "consumer" unless B2B is now defined as "consumer"

Slowly but surely we're starting to phase out external software vendors and moving our software in house. Here's a peak of what I've got so far with a back office server manager app. It's very barebones right now, but LDAP authentication works (mostly), one of our cloud vendors is (mostly) integrated (I have to write a PHP class as they don't have one), and I've learned a lot about MVC by creating our own framework from scratch.

My favorite thing about modern streaming services are that the ads will load without hesitation or issue but the main show or movie will struggle or crash more often than not.

@npub18yv…xxyn Well you kinda answered your own question lol. If I’m paying $10k for a machine, I want it to give all of its components a thorough inspection during boot. Most servers can tell you exactly which stick of RAM is bad (and some even down to the pin) or which drive in what bay is on its last leg. Consumer stuff is like playing whack a mole to find the problem.

If you have not tried the latest @npub1gzc…fsz3, do it. I've practically switched to it from Outlook. I don't need ActiveSync. IMAP works just fine. Thunderbird isn't Eduora, but it's getting better!

@npub18yv…xxyn @npub18hd…kf64 I'm really glad we (err.. @npub1ruk…9k29 😬 sorry team) promoted both Terraform AND Ansible for Proxmox. Internally, we've been using Ansible. It's definitely more robust from our experience.
And +1 for "Ansible for DevOps"! It's a hot book in the office library!

@npub18yv…xxyn I definitely miss the times when messengers used open, even if proprietary, protocols so you could use software like Pidgin that could unify all your accounts in one app. I hate having slack, discord, Mattermost, etc. I just want one app that can talk to them all.

@npub1jrp…xxnn @npub1hkw…jkge And this is why a hard fork from SUSE and AlmaLinux diverging to be ABI are a great thing.
AlmaLinux can submit patches, but if IBM doesn't want them, fine. Let their customers ask why AlmaLinux is getting patches and bug fixes faster than RHEL.
I'm hoping with this direction change, AlmaLinux can start shipping some updated packages by default. Like it's asinine that RHEL ships PHP 7.2 (!!!) in 8.8 but Ubuntu 22.04 ships PHP 8.1. There's a difference between shipping stable software and shipping ancient history.

That red hat is starting to look blue... is RHEL going to be the next OS/2? My prediction is: yes.
I have a strange feeling that @npub1hkw…jkge is going to quickly transform into an upstream distro.
