It’s about the same population as San Francisco.

San Jose metro area is enormous though. For example I’d consider Gilroy (which is famous for its garlic) as being completely separate from San Jose even though it’s well within San Jose’s metro area.

Windows itself is technically running in a VM if you have Hyper-V enabled (not quite that simple, but that’s a reasonable approximation). Hyper-V is a type 1 hypervisor which means it runs directly on the underlying physical hardware, and both Windows as well as any VMs you create are running on top of Hyper-V.

I’ve ran Docker in LXC in a KVM before. I used LXC to have multiple containers on a VPS. Then I had to run something that works best with Docker, so I stuck Docker in an LXC.

What do you consider small? A lot of people know Cupertino California because Apple are based there, but it’s only got a population of 57k. It’s arguably more recognizable than the closest major city (San Jose), which has a population of nearly 1 million.

850k isn’t really small though.

I don’t think I know enough to answer that question, sorry!

They use a mixture of Windows and Linux. They do use Linux quite a bit, but they also have a lot of Hyper-V servers.

The GUI is optional these days, and there’s plenty of Windows servers that don’t use it. The recommended administration approach these days is PowerShell remoting, often over SSH now that Windows has a native SSH server bundled (based on OpenSSH).

Linux isn’t a UNIX flavor. It’s UNIX-like.

Microsoft could technically get Windows certified as UNIX.

I don’t think they could now that the POSIX subsystem and Windows Services for UNIX are both gone. Don’t you need at least some level of POSIX compliance (at least the parts where POSIX and Unix standards overlap) to get Unix certified?

Self-synchronizes to GMT by passively receiving continent-spanning radio time signals.

Why don’t other watches do this?

I have a Galaxy S3 somewhere, which is apparently supported by PostmarketOS. Interesting.

Hart

My wife bought a Hart brand shop vac and it nearly caught on fire the first time we used it. We swapped it for a DeWalt branded one (which are not actually made by DeWalt) and haven’t had any issues.

Open source is good because it means it can be maintained even if the manufacturer shuts down. One of the biggest issues with keeping older tech alive and in a useful state is proprietary firmware.

That’s Blend-Tec not Vitamix lol

Funny enough this is the first video I ever watched on YouTube, back in 2007, after switching from Google Video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qg1ckCkm8YI

I ran Tomato on mine. Liked it better than DD-WRT.

This confuses me because BlueSky does not have any federalization technologies built into it,

Bluesky is designed to be federated though. It’s just not fully available yet. Also, Bluesky is open-source, licensed under the MIT license.

Yahoo and AOL email are both still around and relatively widely used, and there’s plenty more that aren’t ran by large companies, like FastMail.

Breville is such a good brand. Not very well known in the USA since they’re an Australian brand. Kinda expensive, but very high quality.
