Interesting. Does Incus has support for storing virtual machine assets in a NFS store so they could be easily migrated?

Everything? Allow me to expand a little. The military is where all the real power is concentrated, and not because of being military per se. They have no might whatsoever in relation to other countries... they probably have two working je

In the past, when Fidel Castro was alive and in full posession of his faculties, you could easily say that he was a dictator. Everything of importance was designed, implemented, and micro managed by him. The man was a megalomaniac and, and

I do have the opportunity to leave, yes. But, on the one hand, there's immediate family that depends on me (and not just economically.) On the other hand, I'm approaching an age which I feel does not makes me very hireable, so to

As a Cuban that is currently living in Cuba, I think it might be useful to voice my opinions, as I have read some comments here which I consider less than accurate in some respects. To avoid typing too much, I'll summarize with... bu

Exactly. I do believe that certain individuals and organizations might/should be excluded from service here; however, it seems like the only technical solution to regulations enforcement is to wholesale block a whole country.

Ah! This could have been great for me, except that Tailscale recently cut off access to Cuban nationals to their service (they have their reasons, I guess.) Still, I think that the service they're building, step by step, is fine actual

It is not fake. At the same time, I find it fishy as hell. First of all, it was not uncovered by the authorities, but by others; since it went public, then the authorities made the statemente yesterday evening (Cuba time.) It could be that

I honestly have no idea how the sanctions are reflected in the actual wording of the law, but what I see is that many companies are actually overzealous and wholesale limit (block) access regardless of the outcome of the content request (

Yup. As a Cuban, sometimes it is annoying and sometimes go beyond that. Some cloud providers are totally off limits for us, some are fine with us (the minority and less known), some let us use some services but no others, some even have val

The're definitely not. What's more, to avoid incidents like this, not only people that routinely work and service these kind of vessels are scrutinized by the authorities, but they (the vessels) are usually disabled when not in us

That's old news. The state mandated rate is around 120 CUP per USD (with a little spread when buying/selling, and for other market fluctuations.) But almost no one uses that mechanism, as the state is profoundly insolvent. The bla

Nigeria? Heh... I give you Cuba. Monthly average salary 3902 pesos which, converted to USD, yield 31.2. It would take, what? 50 months?

Because Netflix is not a Cloudflare client, so CF can't pass the source (client) IP. The same should happen with Google, Facebook (or anyone not behind CF infrastructure). At least, that's the way I'm currently understanding

(Cuban here.) I find this result very interesting, really, as we're exposed to these chemicals in varying degrees and frequency. I personally live in a epidemiological controlled/safe (-ish) area of Havana, so my exposure is very

IMO, theoretically, it can be done. In practice, the consensus seems to gravitate to no, do not do that. My experience is limited to on premises deployments, but here it goes: it's way better to isolate with different clusters, not onl
