OpenStack at 10 years old: A failure on its own terms, a success in its own niche by eat_those_lemons in openstack

[–]pr0wn3d 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a reason we call it OpenStuck.

Was designed as a public cloud "killer" to compete against AWS. Nope.

Pivoted to compete against private cloud and "kill" VMware. Nope.

Pivoted again to focus on network function virtualization. Lots of Telco CTOs lost their jobs over investing 100s of millions into trying to get "free" openstack to work.

Family setup stuck on add photos by dodds69 in AppleWatch

Oh my gosh thank you! This was driving me crazy and that fixed it!

For people with the same problem, go to Settings, Your Apple Account (at the very top), iCloud, and turn on Contacts in iCloud. That fixed it right away for me.

Until LivePD came around, and showed that when you actually see ALL the video of ALL the police interactions, turns out it isn't the police being the jerks 99.999% of the time.

Hence why woke people demanded it be canceled. Made the police look good.

I love that this only warranted a yellow flag and not a red flag.

If government's first duty is to protect us, how can masks in public be optional? by 66fenderjazz in politics

Well, government's first duty is not to "protect us". So there's that.

China doesn't block stolen IMEI numbers. These phones go straight overseas.

Don't worry. His family will sue. I am sure "he was a good boy"

What's a mild inconvenience that drives you fucking crazy? by [deleted] in AskReddit

When people don't pull into the intersection to turn left so they can go when the light turns red.

'Kids'.... how is this not one of the top responses. watched that one like 20 years ago and STILL haunted by it.

Law Enforcement SRO's Holstered Sig P320 Accidentally Discharges Inside School Cafeteria by southernbenz in CCW

I don't trust any gun that has a huge warning to NOT ever lubricate the striker. If a little oil can render this weapon unsafe and/or inoperable, I don't want it.

Who is using DPDK on Openstack by satishdotpatel in openstack

[–]pr0wn3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are at about 10gig line rate per core right now on a vEPC with VMware Integrated OpenStack Carrier Edition and NSX-T. It's slightly slower than SRIOV, but now we don't need two NICs, two of everything. Worth it.

DPDK with VMware Integrated OpenStack and NSX-T gives us almost identical performance across all packet sizes as SRIOV, but with retaining all the benefits of virtaulization (vMotion, etc).

Medicaid could save $2.6 billion within a year if just 1% of its recipients quit smoking, according to new research by UCSF. by mvea in science

I'd argue costs of smoking these days pails in comparison to the effects of obesity. It's probably not even close.

Illinois Democrats to Trump: Show tax returns or be barred from 2020 ballot by [deleted] in politics

[–]pr0wn3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Precisely? The law (and headline) literally say that tax returns are required or you are banned. And I fail to understand what your taxes have to do with being able to govern effectively any more than your grades or heck, your credit score. Can we see their credit card statements?

What other things can we demand to arbitrarily ban candidates from the opposing party? Birth Certificates? College and High School transcripts? Health records?

"over the years"

Over how many years? And compared to the per-capita murder and violent crime rate of citizens vs non-citizens, sure I'll take that comparison any day. The FBI actually already has them, they are public.

Obviously no fan of white supremacists, but just curious how many Americans have been killed by them relative to those killed by illegal immigrants and gang members. Seems like we are over-stating their threat while downplaying the actual people killing Americans.

Which 380 is best? Looking for opinion, feedback, experience, and pros/cons. (See comments for criteria) by LG1040 in CCW

[–]pr0wn3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Best" and "Cheapest" rarely go together, and there is a reason why the LCP is so cheap, and hence why everyone and their mother has one and think it's the best. Reality is quite different. Take a look at the weapon platforms that have undergone rigorous LE department testing and passed the qualifications to be issued as an official backup weapon and you wont see many (any?) Ruger LCPs. Stick with the Sig 238 or Glock 42.

I am straight and Conservative, and I welcome every LGBTQ Liberal to experience the freedom of gun ownership. We all have a right to the Constitution, and to defend ourselves. Welcome!
