I'm not going myself but sending 2 employees down there. Been attending in the early years myself, when it first was Don Jones and then Tobias Weltner running it.

Content of the conference is very technical and can highly recommend it. Enjoy!

+1 on OCI free tier (ARM) - works like a charm. No need to spend those $5 a month of what OP want's to do.

Will Corps ditch Windows over Recall for Linux? in c/[email protected]

Look at the VMware Broadcom merger. The price went way up and companies paid it anyway. However some did switch to the cloud or some other hypervisor.

It is not all of us Enterprises that "just paid". We chose a migration project over "just paying" Broadcom and would not call it a merger, but rather a takeover.

We are using 845 G8/9/10/11 (AMDs) at work and from my testing with Ubuntu 22.04 LTS I have the opposite experience - nothing works. First problem as I recall (+1 year since I tested) was wifi driver problems.

Do you think people would be okay with 'Recall' if Apple did it? in c/[email protected]

Don't care if it's Apple, M$ or Google - non of them should do it that way.

Are running 2 Dell's at home with Linux desktop on them. A 7280 and a 7480 model. Support for drivers etc just works. Dell get's A+ from me in regards to ease of use with support for Linux. HP's, not so much - what a struggle....

Apple AI vs. Microsoft AI in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 months ago (2 children)

I dont trust either in regards to my data - the same goes for Google and Meta for that matter 🙂

But in regards to what I saw in the WWDC video vs M365 Copilot, I have to say I'm looking forward to see what Apple brings in regards to functionality. To be specific it is the actions part I'm looking forward to see.

We have been POC'ing M365 Copilot at work and I have to say that for something they charge 30 dollars a month (with no ability to do actions) the feeling is: meeeh...

Instead of buying small VPS's like this, why not just use OCI free tier? Their ARM compute performs pretty damn good.

Yes I know it's Oracle (buuuuh), but this free tier/ARM compute is actually pretty good. Used it before to deploy stuff like Mastodon etc.

From the site:

Arm Compute Instance Arm-based Ampere A1 cores and 24 GB of memory usable as 1 VM or up to 4 VMs

Always Free 3,000 OCPU hours and 18,000 GB hours per month
