I recently bought a MacBook Air M1 and I came at it from a classic "ThinkPad with Fedora on it" Linux nerd perspective. I got given a Mac at work a couple of years ago, and I warmed to it. I agree that Macs are great tools for DevOps work. I used to think they were just for posers but I've been converted.

Interesting. I've been using ".home.arpa" for a while now, since that's one of the other often used ways.

First time I realised systemd had a logo. And I've been using it for years!

That's how I've got mine set up, with OPNsense.

I've been using it a few years and I only know about half the stuff that pfSense/OPNsense can do. So I would advise newbies to just make small changes at a time because there's a whole lot of stuff you can change. It's worth learning, though. I wouldn't use anything else for my main firewall/router nowadays.

PfSense and OPNsense are both killer router "out of the box" distros built on BSD. I say this as a Linux user, with little interest in running BSD for my applications, but... Respect to BSD. ✊

ZFS kicks arse. It's worth learning enough to get a basic array going, with a couple of datasets and encryption. Once you get acquainted with that, you'll be using it for years to come.

It's really bad that people end up living like this.

Special shout-out has to go to my local newspaper websites The Derby Telegraph and Nottingham Post .

They are a virtually unreadable mess, due to the layers of advertising and other JavaScript interruption.

It's quite something how Twitter has been constantly tinkered with since musk took over, and instead of making any tangible improvements, it's actually just created more mess.

AntennaPod. The developers seem to have kept it to a very simple remit of just doing podcasts and doing it well.

There's a huge disparity between the density of energy produced by wind and solar power versus nuclear. It's about intelligently balancing the tools at your disposal.

Is there an actual graphics processing system inside the dock? For docks with two or three HDMI outputs, shouldn't reviews be focusing on the performance of the internal GPU system? Because it's something I've not noticed in reviews if that's the case.
