That was said by one random, rather insignificant Microsoft employee who had no capacity to make such a claim. Not in a position to even have that kind of information on the company’s future plans.
And even if they did have the capacity, if you actually go look at what really was said, it’s reasonably clear that they wanted to say latest version but fucked up the sentence. I hate defending Microsoft but that thing has become a meme at this point.
Tailscale funnel is made for this.
Does this mess with DRM stuff? Or do they keep working because it’s the same hardware?
There are esp32 variants that can do ZigBee. It’s very surprising to me that there’s no esphome for those. I’d think that the community would be all over that, but all I have found so far are abandoned GitHub repos. Maybe there’s something I don’t know about the chip or the protocol that makes it difficult?
I have node named pve too. Small world.
Twice, because usually it’s two sticks.
In any case, RAM failure is rare enough that quadrupling its chances is not gonna make any meaningful difference. Even if it does, RAM is the easiest thing to replace in a PC. Don’t even need to go offline while waiting for a new stick. Someone who’s got the cash to build that thing in the first place won’t be too upset by the cost of another 32gb stick either, I don’t think.
Compulsory service exists in many parts of the world and it is rarely good.
Forcing people to do work they don’t want to do leads to very unproductive environments that are also very open to abuse. Being forced by law to do the work has a tendency to create super unhealthy power dynamics.
Podman has a built-in automatic update feature that monitors the source repo. Could be useful for you.
I once read a review of a sous vide machine that just would not work unless it was connected to a smartphone via an app. And then that app would not work properly without a connection to some backend. That backend died at some point, bricking the sous vide machine. What a wonderful world we live in.
