  • Quanto tempo è passato….

    Diciotto anni sono il tempo che separa una minaccia dalla sua sentenza definitiva. Diciotto anni sono anche il tempo in cui un reato cresce, si stratifica, si sedimenta nella memoria pubblica fino a diventare, come ha osservato Roberto Saviano, “maggiorenne”. Ma ciò che interroga, oggi, non è soltanto

  • I took a walk and went to check the spot where they cut the FTTC line. There’s a hole, just like the one that was in front of my house when they broke the water pipes. The road is covered in dried mud, there’s a temporary patch to supply water to the neighborhood, and the main cable/fiber is completely severed. No one was working on it.

    In other words, the providers' promises to restore service by this morning, or at the latest tomorrow morning, are pointless, because I don't think they'll be able to intervene over the weekend.

    In the meantime, I've had to postpone an important installation because I need a stable connection. I can't do it at the office either, both because it's still unusable due to , and because I can't move all the machines there.

    Some of my neighbors don't have a 4G/5G backup connection and are avoiding leaving their homes, since there's currently a spike in burglaries and their cameras are unreachable from outside. Even some alarm systems are affected, which in my opinion is a design flaw.

    More, all the 4G/5G networks are overloaded (more than 2000 persons are affected by this problem) and it's also affecting the nearby hospital. Slowdowns there as well, since the nearest base stations are often the ones close to the hospital. Personally, I configured the Chateau to use the bands farther from the hospital, so as to leave more resources available for them.
    It struggles a bit more and my bandwidth drops, but that's not a priority for me today.

    At least today I had a good lasagna 😉

  • Il calo delle accise: una mancetta in cambio del SI’

    ‘Un voto in più val bene una mancetta da 25 centesimi’ deve aver pensato Giorgia Meloni, probabilmente senza neppure immaginare di adattare a sé la celebre frase di Enrico Navarra (‘Parigi val bene una messa’) che

    Just wild. While cleaning out a university basement, staff found a tape of what's believed to be the only remaining copy of Bell Labs #Unix v4 from 1973.https://www.theregister.com/2025/11/07/unix_fourth_edition_tape_rediscovered/#history #belllabs #computing #tech

    Microsoft is killing Windows 10 and for many countries and users, updates will stop today. It is time to look for options.@brucelawson has a suggestion for you. IMHO there are many Linux distributions to choose between and you will need to choose the one that works best for you.I recently switched to Linux as my primary platform myself.My plea, however, to the Linux community is to make it easy for people to switch to Linux, but also to make it easy to switch window managers, key chains and the like. I switched to Ubuntu myself and I am finding certain things with Gnome were a pain. Thus I tried switching to KDE, but found that broke a lot of things. IMHO we should strive to make it easy for users to switch between window managers and desktops as well as applications, without breaking things. That requires the different players to work together to ensure that switching from one desktop to another, for example, does not need to mean loosing passwords. Locking in is one of the things Big Tech is known for. Linux should not have that, IMHO.#Windows #Windows10 #Linux #computing #Technology https://brucelawson.co.uk/2025/goodbye-windows-10-hello-zorin-os/
