The advantage Windows has is Intune for device management.
The disadvantage is having to use Intune.

Linux is just much easier to script an install an manage using any of the IaC tools you might already be using for your servers. Yes, you can manage Windows with the same tools but it just isn’t as reliable in my experience.

An SFP+ single mode module alone costs ~20€ at least. Add to that a PCIe extension card and you’re way over the cost of copper.

Cat 5e has 8 wires just like any later standard. There’s nothing stopping you from trying a faster speed on it.

ISPs in Switzerland offer up to 10 or 25Gbit over fiber.

But even within a LAN it really allows using a NAS for anything, not just slow access data.

Not sure if they provide official drivers for FreeBSD. Intel is usually a safer bet in that case.

Great to (maybe) see 10GbE coming and the initial price sounds reasonable compared to currently avaipable 2.5G and 5G Realtek adapters.

Apparently Linux 6.16 will have the driver included.

Realtek itself has demonstrated its RTL8127 NIC working with an unknown switch using cheap CAT5E cables, and the company’s representatives at the booth emphasised this fact. However, we do not know which switch or router the company used. Yet, most 10GbE routers and switches are designed for CAT6 cabling.

Funny update about the cabling they used during the demo. There’s really no reason Cat 5e couldn’t work for short enough distances with little interference. It’s more about the guaranteed minimum distance you can get, 55m with Cat 6 and the full 100m for any rating beyond that.

Because there are assholes everywhere

Transfers within Switzerland are free for normal people. And SEPA has a relatively low fee for transfers in (some) other European countries.

But how can it be a digital currency without using blockchain?

In the Basic version only, last time I checked the “original” F-Droid couldn’t do it. And there’s also some minimum API level an app has to target to be eligible for automatic updates (found that out through updating microg and having to click “update” still)

I run basically all my games in gamescope, plus I get HDR for those games that support it.

Obviously can’t have TRANSCOM, it needs to be renamed to CISWHITEMALECOM first

I immediately knew the author of this piece. If you ever need a dose of revulsion and nausea, I highly recommend any of Beth Mole’s articles on parasites, worms and other nightmares.

Having a tank is better than not having one

Someone do the math on when it will cross over.

Some of their I initiatives are good, like the built-in local translation tool we now have.

EV certs are mostly bullshit in my opinion

Any DNS host that doesn’t support automation either starts building now or goes out of business when short certs are implemented.

Looking forward to companies hiring “Cert Engineers” who just renew certs all day.

Joking aside, it really is time to deploy automation for those that haven’t already

If you wanted an actual European OS lawmakes should go to SUSE and get something done with them.
