With colima I can run AMD64 (x86) Linux containers in my Arm64 too. I think this is strictly for Arm64 Linux VMs, or is there some way to run x86 with this too?
You can run amd64 binaries inside an aarch64 Linux virtual machine. Although they're not supporting Rosetta for macOS apps from macOS 27, the Rosetta support in Virtualization Framework will remain.
Oh, didn't read that part of the news. That's great. Ability to run x64 docker images seminatively was one of the big reasons I jumped to the M1 platform when it came out and I was baffled that they would remove it.
It's a tracking tool. You have a bunch of sites embed an image, and requests to those sites also make requests to said image, which you can use to start tracking a client. A single pixel is merely the cheapest image.
I recall Facebook doing it years ago, I imagine they still do.
A 'pixel' is an unobtrusive (as in, not seen by the user like a banner ad is seen) asset* served on a web page that can cause the user's user agent to make an affirmative web request from you, a third party, so you know someone was at the site serving your pixel.
Typically used for:
- tracking in general, as well as more specifically:
- retargeting
- conversion
* Note: Doesn't have to be a literal pixel, but a literal transparent pixel is least likely to get blocked. Serve your pixels from the end of a parameterized path (/some/param/or/other/pixel.gif) and it's not seen as query string tracking either.
I am looking for recommendations for a boombox that is kid friendly and can play CDs. Something not too big but also a bit more resistant. If it can be colorful that is a plus!
I don’t know why you are getting downvoted, agree with you, Microsoft Office is awful on macOS, it just doesn’t work the same, has awful integration with Sharepoint (and Sharepoint in MS Teams and OneDrive), and continuously forgets its properly licensed and complains with a big message that it isn’t licensed - sometimes downgrading to read only. It’s just a terrible thing to use.
This is a cool infection vector for the ai virus from earlier today to use. It could be like NDS feature that it greeted a passerby but now for spreading stuff digitally.
I think an approach could be to use some engineered security issue or however people build botnets, and give it some AI llm that is small and minimal but comes with instructions to download models from hugging face, and some other minimal prompts and descriptions of tools. Then it could use this to grow in infected computers and try find more capable and vulnerable computers to run better capable models and also devise some minimal communication between the different points of the botnet. Perhaps set itself a goal to dominate the biggest amount of compute and have some other goal. Would be curious to see what happens.
Hey, I know it’s supposed to be simple, but any chance of a write up of the macmini as a server approach? I would be interested in learning about the details of how you set it up. I would read this blog post if you ever write one!
It is. I don’t have opened up to the wide internet, but it’s still super convenient to have it on my tailnet, which all my other devices are on, so I can review and manage repos wherever I am, while operating with the privacy of a self-hosted GitHub-like experience.
