This is awfully peculiar, and below the article about them dying is the timeline article for the acquisition of Autonomy by HP and the court cases regarding fraud and accounting malpractice of which the CFO was convicted and given 5…
This looks to be a real hack. I tried the site the author did, and it looked like they had my old addresses and phone numbers, birth date and SSN (they mask birth date and SSN). I already have my…
I’m not a huge fan of Gnome, but I use it sometimes to test it out. This was one of the things that annoyed me, not remembering where applications were. But this works and makes the point, maybe I should…
If you needed another reason to steer clear of Ford, here it is. Interestingly, if they have engines they have the parts where ever the engines are being assembled which points to an unwillingness to stop production and redirect the…

If you’re on the 6.9 Linux kernel, it’s gone EOL unless your distribution is compiling their own custom version with security updates applied, e.g. Proxmox 8 is still running the 6.8 kernel they update. I’ve been running the Xanmod 6.10…
