I hope they listen to him and/or he starts directing how they should do things from the ground-up.
I hate Windows and would love to see ruined too.
I don't know about your TV but that cat rules!!!
I've administered BSD servers professionally and I have to say that it was one of the nicest, most consistent, operating systems I've worked with. I've worked with Linux since the mid-90s and done more than my fair share of Windows Server/AD admin. and I would gladly manage a room full of BSD hosts again.
Who pays first? The user, the content creator, or the content host?
I couldn't care less. If my adblocker is that final straw that caused a company to go out of business, brings on the collapse of the internet as a whole, and ultimately the breakdown of western civilization, then all of it deserves to die. With that knowledge, I'd still update by block lists and donate to adblocking projects.
Serving 4k video is not free
I couldn't care less. I will block every advertisement in every form that is within my ability to block. If that causes the failure of Youtube, Google and the fall of western civilization in the process, so be it.
how can illegal immigrants send money home but regular workers live paycheck to paycheck?
They live six to a room.
...and the rest of their family spends those dollars on a 3rd world cost of living.
The frustrating thing is that there's no clear way to know exactly how much you're exposing yourself with this. Even the article (and related links) don't spell it out adequately (IMO).
For example, I just purchased a new(ish) 2022 Nissan. I don't have the Nissan app on my phone and I don't subscribe to any of their connectivity services. Is my data staying in the car or is it finding some conduit back to Nissan? Is connecting my phone to the console for music and maps opening me up to Nissan's data collection? Is using bluetooth for music and hand-free calls exposing my data? Is there any way to know the specific avenues for data collection that present a risk and how can they be mitigated?
I wish they'd do something useful, like make all their utilities having a --json output option so I can do useful stuff with jq rather than playing games with cut, awk, sed and grep to find what I'm looking for. The fact that there's a need to make accommodations for systemd in the userland utilities seems like a massive regression and a serious red flag for the overall direction of things.
It is much, much easier to setup than syncthing, uses a decent GUI interface that works well with Linux, Mac, Win, iOS & Android. Lots of additional features beyond file sync/sharing.
Ugh, no. The blues are awesome. Blues music does not celebrate ignorance, nor is it whiny.
I'm waiting for Slackware 15.1 to be released with support for aarch64; I don't want to deal with all the updates that maintaining -current requires. The 32bit version worked well on my Pi 3b with the setup from this project.
As a long time working the ops side of things as a Unix/Linux admin, I love docker with k8s. The devs. can have whatever kind of ignorant environment setup they want. As long as the final image passes security, is up to date, and I can define the deployment parameters, it's 100% on them how well it works in production.
