  • scale, they got rid of the kvm emulator in the last release and i was devastated to see all my VM gone. The “migration” consists in you migrate the disk image to the new directory, then you make a new VM… IF you knew that BEFORE the update and took note of all the settings because the old VM menu is gone!

    but also it’s clear than core is on life support


  • Exactly, for example I missed the note that updating truenas to the latest version disables and hides all the virtual machines (theoretically they can get migrated to the new engine but it gave me some weird error. Luckily truenas can be downgraded easily.)

    Now, 3 months after the First release of the update, those virtual machines aren’t disabled and hidden anymore


















  • for example, i browse to a completely new website that nobody ever visited. Nobody uses linux, so i go to gnome.org and first it loads because ther router/firewall never knew that URL before. Then in a few seconds gets blocked pending “ai classification”, then it gets permanently blocked because that asshole of my boss decided to block every website that offers software downloads

    classification pending

    blocked

    or, for example, i take a linux distro that literally nobody uses, when i use pacman it firstly load packages because i’m the first one to access the download server, then in the middle of downloads the firewall learns what those server does, and blocks them during download (invalid SSL due to MITM that replaces content with the “access blocked” message)

    i use arch btw

    and because the blocklist is infinite, even listening to offline music gives errors when using music APIs

    i wonder what’s the point of offering “free wifi” like this. It’s cheaper and gives a better customer experience to just remove the access points and say “no, we don’t have wifi” rather than “we have wifi but you need to login with facebook and you can only use it for whatsapp and to browse our website”. I heard the boss was pissed that the upstairs neighbors were “stealing” the wifi, as he saw traffic during night time
