As free money dries up and profits slow, companies slash headcount almost as fast as #opensource community trust.

IBM to buy HashiCorp for 6.4b — should I post a hot take on the state of corporate #opensource tomorrow?
If IBM decides to merge Terraform and Ansible, would that be Terrible?
A few years ago, I would've said CentOS or Debian. Now, the answer is much easier #linux #homelab
My Dad and I achieved the unthinkable.

@thomasfuchs Surprisingly limited to just one donor 3400c. Luckily both of these computers came in with a small list of defects... so far!
I spent the past couple months restoring two old Macs. And now I understand why every retro computer enthusiast has racks and racks of old hardware... 😬 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4604SvoyBc #MARCHintosh

My TODO list is a .txt file on the desktop — what's yours? https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2024/my-todo-list-txt-file-on-desktop
I've reached the point in my writing career when I find an old blog post on some deep technical topic, and have absolutely zero recollection of writing it lol
Good news for those wanting to build out a custom Arm64 desktop:
ASRock Rack has a mobo+Ampere CPU combo that restocks every few weeks on Newegg: https://newegg.com/p/N82E16813140134
And Noctua's prototyping two new LGA 4926 coolers (pictured: NH-D9 AMP-4926 4U)
I am building out my 45Drives HL15 server with this board and will hopefully have a video up on it soon!
Full review will take longer though—need to test out software, get an idea of power draw, test performance/networking... but so far so good!
This laptop was MADE to be HACKED! I tested the open-source-hardware-laptop, the @minut_e Reform. What do you think? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DA0Jr4WH-4
Happy 1700000000 seconds everyone! https://www.epochconverter.com
Yeah, I'd say this filter was ready for replacement... it's been a good 7 years.
The Raspberry Pi 5 is 2.5x faster than the Pi 4 (sometimes more!), and I have the FULL rundown — let me walk you through it in this thread. #RaspberryPi #Pi5
We're reaching an era in infra ops where the giant corporation-owned tooling is closing its doors, and more open 2nd systems are being built like Kargo (from Argo creators), OpenTF (from Terraform users), and JetPorch (from Ansible creator).
Wild time to be nimble.
@mattl @brion @brainwane @geerlingguy@bird.makeup video is hard—1-2 hours of work per minute for a well-produced video. And then no easy way to update it over time.
So IMO often the resources are better put toward documentation, though community tutorial videos are highly encouraged since they're a great (maybe the best today) on-ramp for new users.
I'm sure @bcantrill is could fill out a book now with examples of companies who are using parts of his "Corporate Open Source Anti-Patterns" presentation for a template...
Requiring copyright assignment, using anti-competitive licenses instead of open source...
@dango_ I'd tend to trust the FSF more than some other entities, but still not like the idea regardless.
As belts tighten, corporate #opensource evolves—further and further from the ideals of Free Software.
Partly due to bad actions by "freeloaders," but also companies putting too much value in building code, and not enough on community and support. https://www.hashicorp.com/blog/hashicorp-adopts-business-source-license
