And its backed by the Linux Foundation! So it can survive things like Hashicorp’s silly attempt to claim copyright infringement.

On Linux KVM is what people use for this. Not an option in VirtualBox.

If your company is implementing an app that is basically a toggle switch or power button, it’ll probably look like the first one. If your company is implementing an internal search engine, it’ll probably look like the second one. If anybody is implementing a data entry system meant to be used by trained individuals at a workstation, its gonna look like option three. You might as well complain about a CNC mill being more complicated than a screwdriver, they’re different tools.

Once they are cheaper and more durable I’ll buy one. Its still a new form factor that hasn’t been perfected yet, but that doesn’t mean its wrong for manufacturers to keep at it

Hard to say. Information is valuable in any type of economy, so it may be more to do with where public concensus lies on privacy issues, and the competency/trustworthiness of oversight.

Lol, if you like. I don’t support Google at all (at least, the violation of privacy rights). But I can see why their behavior happens, and it’s more to do with corruption and apathy. I blame the average person more than Google, because if it wasn’t tolerated (I.e., people in general gave the slightest shit) or privacy laws were enforced and/or written for the digital age, it wouldn’t happen. And since it is tolerated, companies that don’t participate are largely outcompeted by those that do.

I am viscerally disgusted by where privacy is at in the digital age, but at this point, no, I don’t see it as a problem with any particular tech company.

There’s no point in hating Google. Hate the systemic inadequacies that allow their abuse, and those of other tech giants, to not only thrive but become borderline mandatory for success at that level.

9/11, yes, but what human rights did we lose from covid? Having to wear a mask for a while? Or being heavily encouraged to get a vaccine? …
