Republicans break protocol to kill Social Security benefits expansion bill
  • This is incorrect. The conditions here are applicable to former employees who are collecting a pension from an employer that did NOT contribute to social security.

    The number of people that this impacts is small but not insignificant. About 2 million people, or 3 percent of Social Security beneficiaries, according to a February 2023 report by the Congressional Research Service. Most are former federal workers who were hired before 1984, when the U.S. civil service was brought under the Social Security system, and ex-employees of some state and local government agencies.

  • Massive Pokémon Fan Game Site Taken Down Without Warning Via DMCA
  • Once the alleged infringing content is removed, the infringing party has the option to file a Counter Claim in response, stating under penalty of perjury that the DMCA Notice is false. The OSP/ISP must wait 10-14 days after receiving a valid DMCA Counter Claim before reactivating or allowing access to the claimed infringing content. The claimant who filed the DMCA Takedown Notice must then file a court order against the infringing site owner and the OSP/ISP if they wish to keep the infringing content offline.

    Self-hosters are also subject to DMCA. Failure to comply runs the risk of being sued.

  • After 114 days of change, Broadcom CEO acknowledges VMware-related “unease”

    Of course large providers are utilizing virtualization, containerization and an abundance of similar technologies. However, they’re not generally using VMware to do it.

    I spoke in the context of OPs question.

  • Docker - what use is it?
  • “The thing with Docker is that people don't want to learn how to use Linux and are buying into an overhyped solution”

    I stopped there. Thirty years of LINUX experience here. You’re a fool.

  • After 114 days of change, Broadcom CEO acknowledges VMware-related “unease”
  • If you’re running a lab or a small shop any hypervisor can likely do the job. Anything above that VMware’s overall ecosystem is the most robust and well-supported.

    At this point virtualization is a legacy technology. It’s not going to disappear tomorrow but its clock is ticking the same way the clock was ticking for mainframes thirty years ago. Plenty of mainframes still out there but nobody is implementing new. Same can be said for virtualization. It’s a limited market with significantly slowed growth over where it was a decade ago.

    The move to a subscription model will let them squeeze every last dollar out of the technology while they still can.
