Nobody forces anyone to install an OS, but he probably meant that he was pressured into, not by someone but by the very conditions of software.

My example: I had to return to Windows a while back because I rely heavily on Zoom Meetings, and Zoom in Linux is just near unusable.

Zoom works okay in Linux via web browser.

EDIT: I use Firefox.

The same way and principles, actually containers mimics the golden image pattern used in physical infrastructure.

You need an image (qcow, raw, etc) of your vm with the things you want installed on it. Then you distribute it across computers that will used it through qemu, libvirt, etc.

It's also interesting to see how pxe works :-)

You could have just showed them historical data of both companies being unavailable for extended amount of time. What happened in the past few months is not new.

"just", as if you never had to argument against aws fanboys...

Renting the hardware is not necessarily a cost-saving measure though: how much of the compute/storage capacity you have is sitting idle in your datacenter? That's the whole point of finops: you need to have full visibility into the usage of your infrastructure so you can optimize the spend.

Gosh, there is job title for capacity planning?

Based on this, expect US hospital prices for that service to go up.

It should not be charged at all IMHO. And it should be a right of the parents to hold their newborn in the moment they enter this world.

> Recently, his shop was fined for not registering used laptops that his customers had abandoned for repair. Sure, NYC is attempting to prevent stolen laptops from being resold, but the level of bureaucratic idiocy turns Rossman’s channel into a Shakespearen comedy.

I saw this complaint and didn't follow what NYC did wrong. If one isn't allowed to sell "unregistered" laptops or whatever, why would abandoned customer laptops get a pass? Did the law state they should? I gather he is still allowed to repair them for people, even potentially thieves, just never "launder" them.

So what should he do to computers he spent time and money to fix and clients abandoned? Throw them into the bin?

As a former Debian enthusiast (I even helped staff a Debian booth at a conference once!) who also tends to be conservative with new technology and who is consequently also skeptical of all these random Linux distros, I eventually tried out Arch and found it ... super awesome, I really love it!

I highly recommend it to anyone else like me, who is generally cranky about new things. They did a really great job with Arch. This policy you mention is a great example of what I like about it.

joana035 · 4 years ago
I used Arch a lot back in the days there was no dkms (got a new kernel? Recompile your gpu module otherwise no desktop on the next reboot, specially with nvidia) and Arch is a very good place to learn Linux, but I eventually went to Debian because everything just works.

For the topic I think is good to have dfsg and to patch any software with the goal to provide better integration with the system and for user's freedom.

Not really, only if it the IP was used to delivery spam.

But IP reputation can be established with a bit of warm up and human interaction.

Email from EC2 instances will be blocked because of the high amount of spam that comes from those IPs.

Yeah, you have to request amazon to remove the throttling from your network.

It took few year for aws to document that they have this limitation on their network.

One micro instance with Postfix is more than enough and can beat this setup not only in performance but in simplicity.

What a year to be alive ...
