About time. Having that phone limping along has done nothing for Microsoft's fortunes, nor has it helped the mobile industry.

lol - the ultimate in ransomware protection. watch they don't raise prices, that's a premium feature

@coliver said in GE Power Grid Relays Found with Hard Coded Password and Breached Encryption:

One of the many reasons we need to work to modernize our electrical system.

Or, you know, use competent contractors for the components.

@travisdh1 said in HPE Axes Entire OpenSDN Business, Stops Support:

Wow. I can understand dropping product lines if they're not making money, but immediately burning it all without communicating this to customers. HPE, that doesn't look good at all.

I agree, not a good sign for the health of the new company. Burning bridges with customers, presumably big ones, means that they were desperate and had to make the move rather than just doing it strategically.

You need a faraday cage for these things!

Or just don't connect them to the internet, at least. My current TV has never been online, lol.

Edit: This probably means that it has hacked my WiFi and is online without telling me by now.

Time to check the DHCP leases.

Rough week, first Webroot, now Netgear.

@NerdyDad nostalgia.

Maybe we are in for something good when 8.0 comes out.

Seems like WD has to do this due to the legal entanglements that Toshiba otherwise would have to unwind.

Interesting, but nothing surprising.

There are some fun projects that you could do with this. Although for wearable I guess it is a lot harder to really do something cool yourself. Wearable Arduino already handles things like wearable lights. This would be more for having a secret screen inside your coat to watch movies on.

PAS on SAP?

ext4 still the defaults on Debian distro as well.

Well Debian, sure. Not surprised there. Fuddy duddy distro 😉

@wirestyle22 yeah, Browser is a bit ridiculous. Works well, though.

I've used rsnapshot a good bit and it's a really nice tool for simple backups.

@gjacobse said in Managing Multiple Linux Servers via the Browser with Cockpit:

I haven't read the article yet,... but would be nice if it is available on Windows -

However, that said. I can just set up a VM and run there.... I don't do a massive amount of managing Linux Servers, but sometimes it would be helpful..

Not even on most Linux yet.

@scottalanmiller Replacement as (rather than use vanilla rsync) I'll go with this version.

I'm thinking about one of these for the kids' bedroom back in Texas so that we can have a multimedia and multipurpose device that we can hook up to a TV monitor but get more general purpose use out of it than we would with just a Fire Stick or something like that.
