I think in future devices are supposed to support as many popular functions as possible. Due to trend of thin devices we need smaller ports and fewer of them. Multiple possible use of same ports helps. > As a user there is no easy way fo

Backup is much more important than RAID in most situations. RAID doesn't protect from user error, virus, fire, etc. I think Windows does remind to create backup (but not very loudly and it accepts local backups to another drive which i

I'm sorry, was my message unclear? There were no assumptions. I'm speaking from experience that when I was using Debian testing I would usually receive security updates days after they are available for Debian stable. Obviously se

Yes, there are downsides to federation, but I would argue spam is not inherent to federated communication. There are many ideas to stop spam like proof of work. Main reason for spam in email and PSTN is legacy protocols, which were created

Let's give Facebook full control over worlds communication? And allow them to cut people off from communicating with anyone? I don't think it's great idea. We really need federated communicator.

I simplified a bit. Yes, Debian testing gets new updates, which means it gets security updates. Eventually. It can (and does) take days for critical security updates to migrate from unstable to testing after stable has access to patched ver

Unfortunately, Debian testing doesn't get security updates.

User should not use IP addresses. This is what we have DNS and mDNS for. In special cases, like local router if mDNS is unavailable, IPv6 address is even easier than IPv4 (compare "FE80::1" to "192.168.0.1"). Anyway, it&

But if services will need to use one big file, we won't have possibility to overcommit disk space (unless they implement something like TRIM).

> Keeping IPv4 alive today doesn't hinder progress Because many users/services have only IPv4, practically all services and ISP have to provide IPv4 and do not have to provide IPv6. If we could agree to kill IPv4 at specific da

Really? I used bvyhe on FreeNAS and it was awful comparing to KVM or ESXi.

Professional might be different. I can personally confirm this issue on Home, version 1903-v2.

Latest 1903-v2 "Home" version does not have offline account button without being offline. I had displeasure of configuring it two days ago. See screenshot here: https://www.extremetech.com/computing/295445-mic

I know, but these flags have to be set by provider of container, not user (provider of VPN). And they might require changes in kernel.

The second "failure" was about small flaws on display (mostly visible on white background). I didn't actually expect them to replace it, but they did. I've also heard from friends that E7*70 had a bit higher failure rate

I doubt serious VPN provider are using LXC/OpenVZ containers. They don't even work with OpenVPN without special setup from provider, I don't know how about other protocols.

Did you try to open T470/T480 (maybe T490)? There are awful latches which are integrated in case, so quite expensive to replace.
