AWS Cloud WAN looks interesting…
…although “AWS Obi” or “AWS Magrathea” would have been a better name.

At AWS Summit… nice day out in London….this Cloud thing looks promising ;-)

Ping me if you are about for a catch up…

@RxBrad Thread on Github issues. https://github.com/openmediavault/openmediavault/issues/1934

@RxBrad yes just noticed that too. Domain registration doesn’t appear to have changed so that’s good. Hopefully site will be restored soon. Turning off apt updates… whilst I download TrueNAS :-o

Here’s something scary for Halloween.

Linux launch date - 33 years ago today. Announced on the 25th August 1991 on "comp.os.minux" Usenet group by Linus Torvalds.

I've only been using Linux since 1992 - a mere 32 years! :-o

Hello everybody out there using minix -

I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and
professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones. This has been brewing
since april, and is starting to get ready. I'd like any feedback on
things people like/dislike in minix, as my OS resembles it somewhat
(same physical layout of the file-system (due to practical reasons)
among other things).

I've currently ported bash(1.08) and gcc(1.40), and things seem to work.
This implies that I'll get something practical within a few months, and
I'd like to know what features most people would want. Any suggestions
are welcome, but I won't promise I'll implement them :-)

Linus (torvalds@kruuna.helsinki.fi)

PS. Yes - it's free of any minix code, and it has a multi-threaded fs.
It is NOT protable (uses 386 task switching etc), and it probably never
will support anything other than AT-harddisks, as that's all I have :-(.

Worth a read. Failures always happen, but it’s how you deal with them that is important. Openness on what went wrong and the path to a fix is always the best approach….

With the ‘Year of the Linux Desktop’ postponed again, it does appear to be the Year of Open Source Hypervisors… with 70% in this survey moving away from VMware!

I wonder if this is the push that will accelerate IPv6 adoption over the finish line a mere 28 years after it was first available. AWS charging for IPv4 from this week
