Read it and it's pretty good.

Not hugely useful, but definitely interesting.

Proxmox Virtual Environment 9.0 with Debian 13 released Latest announcements for Proxmox.

Going to leave it a while for the dust to settle (and maybe a 9.0.x release or two) but it looks like there's some upgrading at some point in my future.

Hopefully the inplace upgrade is nice and smooth.

I was also tempted to mention Person of Interest. It's a bit of a slow burner for the first season but worth it.

The boost in VPN signups isn't going to be underage kids accessing porn. It's going to be adults.

Underage kids don't have credit cards to pay for VPNs, adults do. The kids will find 'free VPNs' or other location shifting tools that don't have a monthly cost.

It's the 40th anniversary of the launch of the Amiga!

This platform seemed unstoppable, only a completely screwed up and disjointed company could mess up such a hot item. Unfortunately Commodore was up to that challenge.
There were a few good years of Amiga which is now a retro classic!
HBD Amiga!

As a long time Android user who's getting sent their first ever apple phone for work in the next few weeks, I suspect I'll be having pretty similar issues soon!

If there's a positive takeaway from this it means their tracking is so terrible it's useless.

Remote patching when you don't have physical access to the hardware is risky, even more so when you don't have any kind of duplicate of even emulator locally.

This is a great indepth explanation of patching the software on Voyager 1 while it's out in interstellar space! […]

I did a radio show for 11 years, I still never got used to the sound of my own voice. If I had to do any edits between recording and broadcast I did it in a way where I had to listen to the minimum amount of my own voice.

Amiga A1000 prototype. Fan boards are the CMOS versions of the custom chips, and board at the front is a Wire Wrapped A1000.

Wow... It always amazes me you can replicate complex chips using normal logic chips. πŸ˜‚

Not me, maybe this is a geographically localised phenomenon ?

(I'd love it to be Thursday, it would mean I was one day closer to the weekend)

Cover ? I wasn't familiar with the original. I've just checked it out on YouTube, that's a curious style choice for the video.

I've learnt that there are flavours of Quavers that are something other than cheese.

BBQ and Prawn Cocktail have been tried and they're both nice but they're not a patch on cheese.

Twitter did (certainly at one point) have locked down accounts that only followers saw your posts and you had to authorise every follow request.

But yes, this isn't a replacement for FB. Especially if you want to post friends-only.

Sure, there's the old mantra of never putting anything online if you don't want it to be seen by everyone. However, a lot of us live in a middle ground where limited visibility of posts to a friends group (with the everpresent possibility of it being leaked) is preferrable to being completely public

So, a number of my Facebook friends are now picking up on this platform. Unfortunately this isn't going to replace FB anytime soon. FB allows friends-only posts where all posts on here are public. I don't see any way of making a post only visible to a friends group I control.
