They’re discontinuing VMware Player but allowing you to use VMware Workstation free for personal use. I believe it’s forcing the commercial customers to purchase a subscription now, and funny how the OCGFC and all their megacorps are pushing everything towards…
It’s doubtful it’s a spying operation or an actual threat as these Bitcoin mining machines aren’t super computers and very specialized individualized hardware for finding block hashes for the new block and winning nonce, block reward (story below). But now…
As RasPBX looked like it was no longer being updated, there is another project, Incredible PBX, serving the Pi as well as several other operating systems and virtualized servers. And looking through their forum, the project is active with a…
A huge amount of money is being invested in the Cheyenne area for Facebook and Microsoft data centers, and see the previous article on the massive solar panel project. We also have a huge wind generating project west of town…
