This is incorrect. The conditions here are applicable to former employees who are collecting a pension from an employer that did NOT contribute to social security.

The number of people that this impacts is small but not insignificant. About 2 million people, or 3 percent of Social Security beneficiaries, according to a February 2023 report by the Congressional Research Service. Most are former federal workers who were hired before 1984, when the U.S. civil service was brought under the Social Security system, and ex-employees of some state and local government agencies.

While you may have IPv6 it doesn’t do anything if the services you utilize don’t support it.

MANY major websites and domains have no IPv6 support. https://whynoipv6.com/

Slackware 1.2. It was easier to install than Debian at the time.

Once the alleged infringing content is removed, the infringing party has the option to file a Counter Claim in response, stating under penalty of perjury that the DMCA Notice is false. The OSP/ISP must wait 10-14 days after receiving a valid DMCA Counter Claim before reactivating or allowing access to the claimed infringing content. The claimant who filed the DMCA Takedown Notice must then file a court order against the infringing site owner and the OSP/ISP if they wish to keep the infringing content offline.

Self-hosters are also subject to DMCA. Failure to comply runs the risk of being sued.

Are you clairvoyant? I’m curious as to how you are aware of what I believe, beyond what I stated; that you’re a fool.

Virtualization, as a commercial product pointed at businesses, is a legacy product.

Of course large providers are utilizing virtualization, containerization and an abundance of similar technologies. However, they’re not generally using VMware to do it.

I spoke in the context of OPs question.

I won’t, because I stopped there.

“The thing with Docker is that people don’t want to learn how to use Linux and are buying into an overhyped solution”

I stopped there. Thirty years of LINUX experience here. You’re a fool.

“it’d just take a couple of landlords to have some morals”

So much for that idea.

Might want to avoid religion, too.

having your boss say “stop” at 32 hours is the intent of the bill.

If you’re running a lab or a small shop any hypervisor can likely do the job. Anything above that VMware’s overall ecosystem is the most robust and well-supported.

At this point virtualization is a legacy technology. It’s not going to disappear tomorrow but its clock is ticking the same way the clock was ticking for mainframes thirty years ago. Plenty of mainframes still out there but nobody is implementing new. Same can be said for virtualization. It’s a limited market with significantly slowed growth over where it was a decade ago.

The move to a subscription model will let them squeeze every last dollar out of the technology while they still can.

The irony of you tooting about 1A, celebrating your “right” to free speech, based on your ability to post something in a forum where 1A doesn’t apply.

It’s delicious.

Already exists. The Star Trek Archive, one of the showcase apps for VP, can play arbitrary videos and supports all the major 3D formats, including the side-by-side commonly used in the andult industry.

The sad truth is that Firefox is on life support. Whether we like it or not it is not a player in this game.

Interest deduction… meaning not 8% anymore. It doesn’t change the math, it changes the rate.

Not sure how zip code factors into “simple arithmetic” but you do you.

No, it’s not.

You’re rationale that 8% of 300,000 = 24,000 therefore $2,000/mo., by dumb luck, comes close at 8%.

• 12% of 300,00 = 36,000/12 = 3,000; actual is $3085/mo
• 8% of 300,000 = 24,000/12 = 2,000; actual is $2200/mo (not $2025)
• 4% of 300,000 = 12,000/12= 1,000; actual is $1432/mo
• 2% of 300,000 = 6,000/12 = 500; actual is $1108/mo
• 0% of 300,000 = 0/12 = 0; actual is $833/mo

It’s algebra, not arithmetic.

P = (r * A) / (1 - (1 + r)^(-n))

where:

• P is the monthly payment
• A is the loan amount
• r is the monthly interest rate (APR/12)
• n is the total number of payments

For the most part, I don’t visit websites. I can parse through hundreds of articles in minutes and jump immediately to what interests me. Hell of a lot faster than hopping from site to site in the hopes there’s something of interest.
