This was a nice article to read, except complaints about the bezel (really we're still talking about bezels?). I've got a Intel 12th gen Framework 13, and I've been curious about how they'd do with the AMD version. I'm really liking mine, but a bit more performance would be appreciated since I use it for work, too. I'll probably buy the motherboard kit in a year or so, and slide the Intel into a case for a home server.
This is exactly the kind of thing that gets backported to stable LTS distros tho. The kernel Major.Minor is just the base - it doesn't tell the whole story.
Oracle keeps trying to throw shade, but I hope everyone knows that it's just opportunistically poking a competitor in the eye. They don't have an open source leg to stand on.
Relicense or update CDDL to be GPL compatible and then I'll reevaluate.
I worked for a fairly large tech company (not a household name, but well known in it's sector) and this was their policy for core business IP related changes GPL things. Modified GPL sources were neatly packaged up and available but it was a violation of the support contract to share them.
It ultimately doesn't matter (to those customers) if it's a violation of the license - the customers were large businesses who were not going to risk an expensive court case without a clear victory against a company they're investing hundreds of millions of dollars (or more) in, on some moral crusade.
I'm not defending it (and I did not enjoy working for said company), just saying that this model already exists.
Edit: I should also say that I have no idea if that's going to be RedHats policy, but it would make sense if it were.
As of right now (and realistically the foreseeable future), nothing changes for Fedora. Fedora is useful to RedHat as a proving ground for features that may someday land in RHEL.
The only thing directly concerning for Fedora is that RedHat is the main corporate sponsor. If RedHat needs to cut costs, they could cut back on paying for infrastructure costs of the Fedora project. They could direct their employees to spend less time around the Fedora project. They could concentrate further on CentOS stream instead, which is probably not an attractive alternative for the typical Fedora user.
It is a problem with The Court though. Sure, Sotomayor is classy here, but only because she chose to be. The things coming out about Thomas shouldn't be allowed but no one is functionally capable of doing anything about them, even though we have rules in place for other civil servants - that's the problem with the court.
As others have said, RHEL is not going closed source. They are not violating the letter of the GPL (though IMO, certainly the spirit of it).
I think this is a crappy move by RedHat/IBM and I won't excuse it, but I will say in their defense they are one of the largest contributors to open source. Everything from the kernel to Gnome and in between. It's a massive step back from the company they were 5 years ago, though.
Nope, Prism doesn't do bedrock.
You may want to research this some more. Spinning the drive up and down adds wear on the mechanical parts, and will lead to the drive failing a lot sooner.
Maybe you're okay with that tradeoff, just thought you should at least be aware of it.
CA has only elected democratic (vaguely to the left of the median Democrat, if fairly rank-and-file) senators since 1992. As long as she didn't leave it to chance and die during her term (...) while she coincided with the honestly fairly moderate-but-still-republican Gov Schwarzenegger, she could have had a hand in picking her replacement.
As others (including myself) have noted, any Democrat-led SCOTUS nomination or major piece of Dem legislation would have passed more-or-less the same. I'd be curious if there was some analysis of where a particular Dem Senator from CA was a "swing vote". Meanwhile now we're in a vacancy and her missing vote definitely matters (again, thankfully likely with less impact than RBG's).
Right, there's definitely a threshold... but we're not anywhere near it. Like I said I have the FW13, and my wife has a similar sized Dell XPS. There's less than half an inch difference. The Dell has almost no bezel... and fingerprints on the display all along the edge from having to open and close it. And the bezel on the top of the FW has hardware switches for disabling the mic and webcam which is probably why it's bigger in the first place.
Thanks for all the feedback!
The flatpak (I think that's what people are talking about here) was what I was using before and IIRC, there was at least one point where the dev threw his hands up and stopped working on it, as someone (MS? Mojang? Google?) was making his life harder. That's probably my biggest complaint about Bedrock, actually. It's not nearly as buggy as its reputation claims, but lordy there's a lot of hands in that pot. And that's before you even start talking about cross play from the Switch...
I was actually hoping to hear that somehow Proton and the Windows version of Bedrock was the way to go these days, but glad that there's at least something.
Exact same in SoCal.
I don't suppose you've got yours setup to bypass/ignore the ATT provided router?
That last paragraph is all sorts of reasons why she should have retired 15 years ago (at 75!) When voters would have easily voted in her (possibly even hand picked!) protege.
We're now left a mess because someone with an ego didn't retire when they could have. Wait this is starting to sound familiar. Thankfully the consequences aren't likely to be as dire this time.
