The feature parity and global distribution isn't there though. Sure you can make it work, but it's going to be a chunk of extra engineering on top of the switch.

Good luck to the exec pushing for that change in most financial institutions!

That said, I could see those trying to do multi cloud picking a European secondary.

That caught me out last year, realised after the first race that I couldn't share!

I once went to a hotel that did creme brulee in a paella dish. I REALLY want to know what they used on that!

Most tier lists are probably paid

The SVG format itself is a bit of a security disaster, nevermind stuff like this.

Impressive.

Doing the closing ceremony in a Roman amphetherter built in 70AD is pretty cool. Much better than building some new place.

even better, I THINK I have skiied there! did a day trip over from either Arraba or Selva.

The Dolomites are really beautiful, very different to the rest of the alps. That area has a great mix of Italian/Austrian food, great all round.

Against NATO planes gifted to Ukraine. Neither side can really use traditional air power, because both have S-300 launchers.

We have also seen them in action in Russia/Ukraine though.

Now enjoy the power brick roulette. My work laptop charger (dell) won't do anything more than trickle charge anything else (other than my girlfriend's Mac?!). I had to buy a new brick to get something that appears to charge everything at each devices rated speed.

Being able to charge a laptop from my monitor using the same cable that handles the display output and peripherals is cool though! (But that DOESN'T work on a Mac.... It won't pass the keyboard through!)

"Standards"!

6 laps for Aston, oof.

It might be a GP3 engine this year!

STATEMENT

Our last run with Fernando Alonso yesterday showed a battery-related issue that impacted our test plan with the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team.

Since then, we have been carrying out simulations on the test bench in HRC Sakura. Due to this and a shortage of power unit parts, we have adapted today's run plan to be very limited and consist only of short stints.

Article's headline, not mine!

I disagree, with the headline, but it does at least mention astroturfing etc.

 

Seems to go to an alternate front end, but not load?

 

... Who would have thought?

Would link to the status page.... But it's down!

 

They sell things that come in cups, or with napkins. Lots of people cycle/run/walk here instead of driving, seems pretty stupid.

Taking away the bins doesn't mean you don't produce rubbish....

Edit: I think there is still a bin IN the cafe, but most people eat/drink outside. Lots of people asking staff where the bins are. Still hypocritical I think though? (And still mildly infuriating to remove well used bins!)

Hi, I'm looking for some recommendations, mostly looking for pointers of where to go and look at/research stuff as I have no idea what is good and what is just well advertised.

Intro: I have finally entered the world of (almost) Gigabit internet, which is opening up options with what I can host.

I currently have:

  • Pi hole on an actual RP (will probably remain there because its easy)
  • Inbound Wireguard VPN on my old router (will stop working when my old ISP stops service) EDIT: my new ISB gave me a router, but it doesn't have VPN functionality
  • Foundry VTT that I run up on my gaming machine when needed

I will probably also be upgrading my gaming PC in the next few months, so my current rig will probably be put behind the TV to use as a server and for couch gaming.

Info/recommendations I would like:

  • VPN software (I want to VPN INTO my network) My goto would be wireguard, is that still a good option? (I assume I just port forward the VPN ports to the server?)
  • Private cloud/File server: I both want to be able to occasionally (but permamently) host files publicly, but still have the main store be available on the local network only. Is that going to be two pieces of software, or just one?
  • Is a local video streaming app actually useful for a rare watcher of movies etc, or can they be streamed directly from the file server? its something that I see a lot of people talk about, but don't really understand why...
  • Is Docker the way to go for everything? or just install on the machine directly?
  • ~Piracy~ VM - Enabling the virtualisation stuff for Docker mostly breaks virtualbox (at least on windows) any recommendations for how to nicely run a VM alongside docker (if that's the recommendation)?
  • Should/Could I be hosting anything else? Foundry will probably be on there. I don't feel like I have a use for smart home stuff, so home assistant wouldn't be much use etc.
