The banks have spoken, Zelle will be the way to send payments to each other. The writing was on the wall in 2019 when Chase and WF standardized on it with-in their own app. PayPal is still kicking, and that's the only real competition. CashApp is seen as "ghetto" and scammy. The main reason is due to the transaction tracking that Zelle uses in the network, they do a bit more so they got better adoption. ApplePay/GooglePay will be just meant for NFC payment instead of a card, which still does not have mass adoption. I think maybe 50% of the time can you use NFC Payment, and that's after being out since the Galaxy S6(2015). I see payment terminals that accept Apple/Google Pay as not well adopted, even the wireless chip NFC bank cards have issues with adoption.

I just bought a new house in California. The way the builders get around this is they do PPA's that you end up paying on top of the Edison bill, or you are forced with-in the first 60 days of ownership to purchase the panels outright from the company that the Contractor used to put up the panels and service the PPA with no price negotiation on the cost. It's kind of a lose/lose situation for consumers, and it is how builders moved around this already for cities like mine that require panels on new construction. I could have put up the 10 panels myself with equipment much cheaper than the 15K they want for me to buy out the PPA and own it outright. I was a bit pissed and it is not required to be disclosed until closing started.

Actually a local station had a skinner reading the mag strip as the card was out in for the chip to be read and using a camera for the pin. So until the mag is gone fraud will still happen.

Proxmox might be cool and all, but if you want something open that is on the same playing field as VmWare get Ovirt. If you get stuck you can always get paid red-hat support so you won't lose your job if it has issues. I have been very happy with a lab I built for DR using Ovirt amongst 3 servers all on a 10gigE setup and Gluster. The hardest part is the chicken and egg issue of setting up the cluster, but if you do it right you will be able to harness an awesome setup for hyper-converged that is fast and was only 5% behind when I tested it against our real VMware setup. An alternate setup also would be to install Nas4free which can run virtualbox and or KVM on it, install the Ovirt management engine, and then build a sister box. Sync up the stores and then also build a third box for offsite and just use the sync setup of ZFS. You will still get the great performance off of the storage infrastructure and then you can have specific servers for CPU only with minimal storage capacity. Hyper-Converged is where it's at in my opinion though. I like Ovirt because it works with KVM which I feel is the best feature based hypervisor right now. I have not honestly needed to do anything with Docker and containers but it supports it if I do, as well as exporting into AWS if needed. The biggest advantage though is that you can convert hosts from other hypervisors such as ESX to Ovirt.

Are you serious? Have you not heard of VLAN's. I have a WRT1200AC setup and VLAN the network. I also use separate virtual AP's that are on separate networks but use the same radio. You can alias/virtual networks inside of most Linux systems as they each have a different SSID to ident traffic. If you install OpenWRT it's fairly easy to d and then you can configure the firewall to prevent the two subnets from talking to each other. Here is a link to how to make a guest WLAN in OpenWRT. Below that is a link on how to configure the firewall. If you know how to use UCI there isn't much to learn. As a tip when using the -J drop/reject the direction is if you are inside the house already like a living room, and each subnet is a bedroom door attached. Think of it in that way and you will have the direction fine. Usually most errors with the rules are you got the directions mixed up. https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/r... https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/u...

My big boy pants are on. There are very real reasons men are checking out and it's because we're tired of being treated like a paycheck and then told we're the problem with society because we worked hard for what we have. Men are saying to hell with it.

Men who have no skills have all day to knock chicks up are the ones having kids. Whey do you think there are so many single mothers? They are not waiting to get married and have kids like they were years ago, men have wised up. The men who choose to have careers and jobs end up either not having kids, raising a bastard child, or marrying someone younger and having children with her. They are not going to work extra hard just to get taken advantage of women have equal opportunities to support the family too. The options for the partner of the equal status of the American man are gone now. Due to welfare and other items, it actually makes it cost prohibitive for educated men to want to get married and have their own kids. That's some messed up stuff and this is why dudes are playing video games more and leaving women alone and avoiding jobs that don't pay them enough to do better. We need to remove the social norm of the woman having custody, and we also need to remove alimony as a whole. I was really hoping for gay rights for marriage because that also means gay divorces. I know that's one group who would see the bull that alimony and child support is. If the chick spread them to get the kid and then won't let a father who has the means and wants to take care of those children have custody, she can figure it out and work. Men just get taken advantage of when we succeed now. The courts are messed up. The worst person to be in the US right now is a white educated male with a steady job. You're not going to get laid by who you want because you're at work, you're a target for some chick who is looking to gain off you, and everyone is out to claim their card against you because you didn't play a poor me argument in the beginning. So why are these guys going to work hard? There is nothing to motivate them to do more. Women also push little boys down all the time by constantly calling their dad's POS' and stuff, and saying men are the scum. If a dude said that shit though, holy hell would there be a sexual harassment lawsuit happening soon. The double standard is killing men and we're checking out.

Isn't compatibility one of the largest reasons for containers and standard building configurations for environments? I would argue that if all software ran everywhere it also means that everywhere when a vulnerability is found creates a large security issue, as seen with Java already. This is one of the large reasons why containers are the future for programs. All OS' can be agnostic and the container will have all of its libs etc.. and the OS will run it happily. It prevents security issues by jailing the application except for key things like storage and solves this issue in a better way. I know personally when I went to containers and started controlling the dev environment once we had more than one cook in our programming kitchen things got a lot smoother. VM's were the first wave of this, and now containers are the second wave.

MightyMartian the AC is obviously not on the spectrum. As someone on the spectrum language rules to me are ridiculous, I don't see a point in them. As long as the thought was communicated that's what matters and is the sole purposeful point to communication. I don't understand social norms or why people get pissed off about them when broken. The AC is one of those idiots who only see's the world as a series of boxes. The AC bitching about 'Rein; vs 'Reign' obviously has nothing to add to the context but feels insecure. Most likely they are an idiot who gravitates towards rules to prove superiority as they lack it intellectually. Stop assuming assholes == people on the spectrum due to the bad social skills.

As someone who moved on from Android, I don't care for stupid things like wifi charging. First of all wifi charging causes a ton of stress on the battery and causes premature failure. Also, I don't use most of the other touted features. Apple should be working to improve its calendar and mail apps. It also should add an IR to the phone as that is the only missed feature to my Samsung. This all being said we have finally reached the stage that smartphones are good enough to pretty much do everything we want them to do. When we reached that stage with soundcards the market stagnated and the same with desktop PC's, a 5-year-old computer can still do most functions the user wants to do. There are going to be the groundbreaking phones that try to replace a PC, but the problem with that is for a user like me, there is no way in hell a little RISC processor is going to handle my PC workload. The sound quality also out of my IP7 is amazing when used with an external DAC, much better and I saw the axe to the headphone jack as the way we're going to go for a long time. Most of the features of IP7 were performance related. The fact that the memory now is as fast as an SSD and that they upgraded lightning to work with USB-C for USB 3.1 type speed transfers. The biggest feature also that gets ignored unless you've been an Android user is the fact that Apple supports their devices. I am not a fanboy, I bought a phone for every Android release up to Nougat as I liked the customization options. I just got to the point though that I was tired of waiting almost 9 months for the carriers/manufacturers to release the next android version for my phone. I was tired of buying a new device just to get a new OS feature. Android has move towards locked boot-loaders and no root access, so there isn't much argument in the way to keep Android over the iPhone and I can say that the performance of my IPhone when trying to overload it has been very enlightening, especially when gaming.

I wouldn't touch that server you know it's protected by the Russian Mob. They are friends via Trump.

I am on the spectrum and so is 1 of my 2 kids. I make enough to alow my wife to stay home and pay for everything most families struggle for with two incomes. My son can do algebra at 3. I might be socially awkward but you are an asshole. This being a STEM based site I guarantee that there are more than a few of us on the spectrum. It's what makes me a great programmer and engineer, and also let's me focus on my work rater than the office drama.

I am in the same boat. This is why at 30, and 10 years in the field I am looking to either get into management or to change out to something else before I hit 40. My biggest regret now with the tech industry is letting the startup I was at suck me into not finishing my undergrad. I bought a house before I was 25, and have a well-funded retirement, so it all worked out. I can see though that the bubble is getting ready to pop with silicon valley. There isn't much more we can push things, the cloud situation is a full classic rendition of the .com bubble that happened. It's time to look outside of the field. Also what has made a sour taste for a lot of investors is the BS that happened with Theranos. It really has put a freeze on startups, and they are looking elsewhere now, such as NY and Israel, at least in the circles I run in. If I was you, I would hold onto that government job and thank your stars when the rest of us are scrambling to find a job like that in a few years.
