What is the upside of the tariff position?

Yep - while only drawing a fraction of the power and creating almost no noise

Trying to get the right combo of iptables rules to shuttle traffic from vps to home lab server (as I think I'll need to do once my ISP upgrade puts me behind CGNAT for the first time...

Got it working sorta, but I didn't like seeing my vps private link address instead of the remote in logs.

I was thinking the same thing. I remember playing doom on pc and it was pretty clear then who the rights holder is..

They just couldn't remove access, so it felt a lot less like I was "renting" the privilege

I just need sudo and a package manager

The promise of the smart phone was a mini computer in your pocket. I think we got it, but then the vendor locked the user out of admin on their own bought and paid hardware 🤷‍♂️

So.. how does this exist in corporate environments where PCI DSS is necessary? Is the government also going to have to deal with fallout from this?

I wonder if there will ever be a point where legislation dictates features from an os vendor.. we lost control of our hardware when they started forcing updates. I'm sure someone will hack a DLL or something to allow explorer to run but kill this component... But should we really need to hack our systems to protect ourselves from spying?

Inb4 Linux - I ran Slackware in the early 90s, and my server still runs a deb based distro.. but when I want to play Forza, I'm pretty limited with my choices, etc.
