As a former Marine, fuck this guy. He’s so lost his way with regard to what he’s actually supposed to be standing for.

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.

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.

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.

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