Why aren’t Microsoft patches to the Linux kernel checked more rigorously? ‘Let’s not do this again please’… days before release date By Richard Speed Intel and AMD engineers have stepped in at the eleventh to deal with a code…
Interesting report of the feds getting warrants to wipe malware from people’s computers without their permission. Why not alert them to the infection for them to deal with when found? This kind of deprives them of using a computer forensics…
The greedy megacorp overplays its hand. You’d have to think they’re literally banking on many firms not having the expertise to make the move away from VMware. But there are opensource alternatives, and probably plenty of consultants to help make…
Research has shown data can be deanonymized, but it’s interesting that they’re testing to see if they can get away with feeding medical records to AI systems. And they want a digital ID that will have all your data associated,…

I’ve tried RSS readers in the past, but never really stuck with them. The standalone apps were clunky to use, but now that I’ve used FreshRSS for a while, I’m really enjoying it and I’m actually scanning more news sites.…
On the positive, as countries look to capitalize on the returns of a deflationary currency outside the control of any one country, they shouldn’t act to devalue their holdings. Of course Bitcoin is also pointing out what a travesty of…
This is pretty funny, as after OpenSUSE went all woke and discriminatory, booting out people not far left enough, they can’t seem to get board candidates. It is actually sad as I started with OpenSUSE, the free and open Linux…
