If by "Red Hat's Information Risk and Security and Product Security teams have identified", you mean "Red Hat was informed", then sure. But Red Hat didn't identify anything except email in their inbox.

All these tech companies could cool their equipment without using water, but if it's slightly cheaper, they'll use water. This is why these companies need to be told what to do, not allowed to decide for themselves, when it comes to use of natural resources.

Honestly, though, server should be built to run in 100 (40C) ambient temperatures. It's really not that hard.

"Scientists Resort to Once-Unthinkable Solutions to Cool the Planet"

Scientists aren't resorting to once unthinkable solutions. That's written as present tense. They haven't done this. They're currently (present tense) PROPOSING "once unthinkable solutions".

We really should stop believing stupid headlines.

I'm angry at the attempt to make stuff up about IPv6. I'm not angry about other things. IPv6 has been a great source of humor. I fully deployed IPv6 more than twenty years ago, and yet there are still countless ISPs out there that simply don't offer it. It's sad, and you have to laugh.

But making stuff up? There's no need for that.

What fresh heck is this? Perhaps you should rethink your basic definitions. What do you think NAT stands for? I can't even fathom how you think multihoming can't or doesn't work with IPv6, or is somehow going to "explode routing tables". Have you been drinking Cisco Flavor Aid while reading their propaganda from the early 2000s? This line of thinking is so broken I don't even know where to begin.

This is true crazy conspiracy shit that has no basis in the real world.

Networks will need IPv6 firewalling because of Windows. Period. IPv6 NAT is precisely as stupid as it seems and sounds.

Ha ha ha... Yes, the shift from P + E cores to *checks notes* umm, more P + E cores is the biggest architectural shift in 40 years.

The move from 16 bit x86 to 32 bit? Nah. That was nothing. 32 bit to 64 bit wasn't Intel, so that couldn't have been the biggest architectural shift.

I don't think Intel knows what the word "innovation" means. Literally every thing mentioned in the article has been done before, mostly by other companies. Do they think "innovation" is when they finally catch up?

First, availability isn't quite what they claim.

Second, they still haven't address their complete lack of self awareness when the hired an ex-cop, then talked up his use of Pis for surveillance, then claimed that people in the community who were upset were really vegans who were upset about a picture of meat.

The second one is what gets me. It changed my opinion of the Raspberry Pi people from good humans who want to make tech available to the masses to gaslighting assholes who are more worried about how they look to some specific people (corporations, police) than how they look to the general population. Good riddance.

Rock Pis and Orange Pis walk all over anything Raspberry Pis can offer for the same price, plus have many more options now for not much more money like dual 2.5 gig ethernet, m.2, 16 gigs of memory, eight core CPUs with much higher clocks, and so on.

Between the .zip TLD, Google's problems of allowing advertisers to lead Google users directly to phishing sites, and now this, Google is quickly becoming the "don't worry and just trust us" company.

No, Google, we don't trust you! We know you'll use this to allow people who pay lots of money to typo squat. We know money matters more than anything to Google.

I'm all for decentralized and open, and Freenet seems like a good idea, until one looks at the basic fact that it requires Java.

Java?

Java is not lightweight. Java is not good at forward and backwards compatibility. Java takes TONS of memory. Java is slow on older machines / machines without plenty of memory. Older JVMs have lots of security issues.

We forget that there's a planet full of people with older computers, recycled computers, computers with significantly more modest resources, non-mainstream architectures...

Also, for a project that purports to care about anonymity, privacy and security, Oracle's software with its myriad daemons and data collection is hardly a good fit, although it's good to see they encourage the use of OpenJDK.

I'd be a lot more excited about Freenet and would actually consider using it if it could be used without Java, particularly since running services requires running the software continuously.

I wish people who say silly things like these would put some money on it. I'd like to wager $1k worth of storage that hard drives will definitely not only still be around, but will still be the preferred storage medium for high endurance.

This, my friends, is why we shouldn't be putting everything in "the cloud". Any organization of any decent size should be running their own infrastructure so they can host whatever they want and they can tell people trying to abuse the DMCA to go duck themselves.

I do this, and I'm more than happy, as a real human, to look at a DMCA request and tell them to suck it because they're trying to play games. It has happened before and it will happen again. While big, faceless, dumb companies will just blindly follow such requests with no real recourse, real humans would know better.

I'm so confused... If Trisquel wanted to be taken seriously, shouldn't they at least have a modicum of information about their project? I literally can't find anything about supported hardware:

https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/... is empty. The FAQ has nothing. "Categories of computers" has "personal computer" (https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/personal-computer) which says, "Parts" and lists "X x86 MIPS". Under "Installing Trisquel on a Server" they mention, "almost any x86/x86_64 server", but the download page (https://trisquel.info/en/download) doesn't mention x86 or amd64, nor does it even say what we're downloading.

So, after ten minutes of searching around, we've got a GNU-centric Linux distro that will be supposedly be supporting Power, but they don't even say whether they support anything aside from x86 / amd64. Does it support MIPS, like that "personal computer" page says? Who knows? Does it support ARM? They won't say.

Sometimes it's good for people in a project to sit someone down who doesn't know a thing about it and see what happens when they try to answer basic questions. For me, they've failed miserably.
