Just dont forget the good old purge of exif as well.

Yeah I've been on t495 for almost a year and, it's a blasphemy I know, but i'm happy I upgraded from t420.

And I know people with intel-based thinkpads (both linux and windows) complaining about horrible performance because intel power management.

Hopefully the trend will continue I used to put intel everywhere but today I have no problems with AMD (especially on linux).

That said my t495 came faulty from factory (trackpoints button not working properly) the quality issues are well documented if you search for that (iirc toms hardware chief editor wrote about that as well) but they changed it for me for free and upgraded to ryzen7 for free as well, that's a fair deal I would say.

That sounds great and good to see AMD cpu as intel has been very problematic in last few years (especially on linux, but windows as well), 32gigs ram for that money is great when thinkpad t495s comes with 8gig ram soldered on the board.

But where is the trackpoint?

The trackpoint is a patented IBM/Lenovo thing, isn't it...?

For the most part, but for example HP Elitebooks and some Dell models have copies of them.

However, the non-Lenovo/IBM models seem to be somewhat worse (probably for patent reasons).

It’s got to be expired now. It’s been over 20 years.

Either the title is very misleading or we are going to see some ABI breakage in the kernel.

That "blocklist/passlist" alternative is horrible - blocklist has always been a list of blocks (and that's how it is used in kernel now).

Some programmers apply this approach to writing code for a long time.

It's great people are finally starting to talk about the real experience running k8s however this article only lightly touched on the problems. When you see deployments when downscaling is not allowed because the code can't handle it somewhere and no one is sure where, when you see deployments with no thought on security updates.. yeah kubernetes is hard to get right.

It's also true many companies go this way not to solve a real problem but to jump the bandwagon.

why not just use twiiter?

> Linus also touched on Rust earlier this month

Linus Torvalds: Well, I don't actually think it's true that nobody writes in C any more. I think C is still one of the top 10 languages easily, if you look at any of the statistics.

Bit too much sensationalism but entertaining.

Social Media are sponsored by goverments?

>Calls to defund the police provide a helpful analogue. Until we fundamentally reimagine what law enforcement means and does, lasting change will not be possible; all the injustice baked into the system will continue emerging from that system. Something similar could be said of social media: Until we fundamentally reimagine our information ecosystem and our respective roles within it, we’ll keep repeating the same patterns over and over—not as a bug of the system, not as a feature of the system, but as the system itself.

Make it open source and put it on put it F-Droid.

But seriously, this is what it takes to most of the poeple to understand why those nerdy geeks complain about security and decentralization - only after it hits them personally ....
