The affordable Sony Xperia 10 series is really good. My new Xperia runs circles around my OG Pixel, costs basically nothing, is waterproof, has upgradable storage and a headphone jack, and besides Apple, Google and Intel, Sony is the only manufacturer that actually has working bluetooth.

That’s definitely wrong. You should follow danielle’s mastodon, she’s working on elementary all the time.

It’s not just office, SH and many other parts of the German government have been slowly replacing the entire O365 suite with OpenDesk, which is an open source product based on Matrix, Jitsi, LibreOffice, and a few other tools.

The goal is to have a fully integrated solution for calender, chat, calls, documents, cloud storage, etc.

My employer is developing parts of that solution and we recently switched our internal communication over to it, and tbh, it’s working really well.

Now is the perfect point in time to do it, with the GDPR ruling regarding O365 and Microsoft fumbling the migration between old teams and new teams.

In timekeeping, there are so called stratums to describe how correct a clock is.

Stratum 0 is a physical process, an inherent property of the universe. An atomic clock would be stratum 0.

Stratum 1 is a clock defined based on a stratum 0 clock. For example, GPS clocks are usually stratum 1, so are timeservers at universities with atomic clocks.

Stratum 2 is a clock defined based on a stratum 1 clock, for example, your router’s ntp server if it syncs its time based on gps or a university’s timeserver.

So if we adopt this jargon for units:

Meter is a stratum 1 unit, defined based on the stratum 0 properties of lightspeed and cesium resonance.

Inch is a stratum 2 unit, defined based on the stratum 1 meter.

You need to be able to have multiple nodes in one LAN access ports on each others’ containers without exposing those to the world and without using additional firewalls in front of the nodes.

That’s why kubernetes ended up removing docker support and instead recommends podman or using containerd natively.

There’s no alternative for 0.0.0.0 and a firewall if you’re e.g. using kubernetes.

That assumes you’re on some VPS with a hardware firewall in front.

Often enough you’re on a dedicated server that’s directly exposed to the internet, with those iptables rules being the only thing standing between your services and the internet.

Fast? Clean? The new app is a stuttery, cluttered mess with more ad popups than a 2010 video streaming site and more framedrops than crysis. Until a few days ago I still used the oooold app and it was much better.

Badly shielded USB3 causes RF leaks at 2.4GHz. use 5Ghz WiFi or better shielded devices.
