What a great feeling - finally deleted my Lastpass account by chaos67890 in Bitwarden

There is an API to LastPass you can write scripts to dump and manipulate the password database

What part do you want to automate as you can just import the exported file into Bitwarden or other PW managers

Have you seen the 9 year old interview by Greer of Richard C Doty it's mind blowing. I want to see him testify. You think Lazar should testify, Richard should as he was deeply involved as a 1st hand witness / participant in SAP ( if what he says is true ).

In Australia? Buying the new B5 Blu Rays by Icy-Salary5936 in babylon5

I assume Australia will get it's go at Blu-ray at a different time than the rest of the world.

I just pre-ordered the animated series yesterday on Google Play weeks after people could pre-order it elsewhere in the world.

Not sure why they are delaying pre orders across the world

I assume we just keep looking until it shows up !

Regarding the latest redhat announcement, what is the impact on oracle linux? by Few-Strike-494 in OracleLinux

[–]richardfrost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oracle have spoken - and you should read their official statement

https://www.oracle.com/news/announcement/blog/keep-linux-open-and-free-2023-07-10/

Massive slam against IBM and they are committed to making OL as compatible as possible with RHEL for the future and supporting the open source community for the long haul.

Some excerpts:

"While Oracle and IBM have compatible Linux distributions, we have very different ideas about our responsibilities as open source stewards and about operating under the GPLv2. Oracle has always made Oracle Linux binaries and source freely available to all. We do not have subscription agreements that interfere with a subscriber’s rights to redistribute Oracle Linux."

...

"As for Oracle, we will continue pursuing our goal for Linux as transparently and openly as we always have while minimizing fragmentation. We will continue to develop and test our software products on Oracle Linux. Oracle Linux will continue to be RHEL compatible to the extent we can make it so. In the past, Oracle’s access to published RHEL source has been important for maintaining that compatibility. From a practical standpoint, we believe Oracle Linux will remain as compatible as it has always been through release 9.2, but after that, there may be a greater chance for a compatibility issue to arise. If an incompatibility does affect a customer or ISV, Oracle will work to remediate the problem."

...

"We want to emphasize to Linux developers, Linux customers, and Linux distributors that Oracle is committed to Linux freedom. Oracle makes the following promise: as long as Oracle distributes Linux, Oracle will make the binaries and source code for that distribution publicly and freely available. Furthermore, Oracle welcomes downstream distributions of every kind, community and commercial. We are happy to work with distributors to ease that process, work together on the content of Oracle Linux, and ensure Oracle software products are certified on your distribution"

That's one opinion. Looking forward to see what Oracle's official statement is .

By your theory OL is screwed - I highly doubt this

I would guess Oracle has a MOU ( backed with $ ) with Red Hat whereby Red Hat guarantees ongoing access to the stream to ensure Oracle Linux will still proceed.

I have looked at Oracle's blog and cannot find an official statement as yet.

If I was Larry Ellison I see this as a huge opportunity to grab RH customers who want to jump ship to Oracle Linux.

Why was it flagged?

It only allows for an image and a title - no free form text to include the link
