Photon OS 5.0 is GA
Here it is https://github.com/vmware/photon/wiki/What-is-New-in-Photon-OS-5.0 Does someone know how the kernel live patching is working ? Thanks
-
Ansible and Photon OS (set package manager for ansible)
Maybe the package module can be extended to include tdnf? They even seem to publish a "tdnf" module: https://github.com/vmware/photon/blob/master/SPECS/ansible/tdnf.py

What do you use to run Docker
I run ESXI bare metal and then I use their PhotonOS that’s made to be a container host. https://github.com/vmware/photon

Strong power saving setup with load balancing within ha cluster of different machines?
Np, here is an excellent series on Kubernetes (k8s) - https://www.youtube.com/live/IcslsH7OoYo?feature=share the same youtuber has an amazing guide on how to build a k8s cluster on Raspberry Pi. You could do the same with Proxmox VMs for example and scale up/down your workloads that way. Ubuntu has an flavour of k8s specifically designed for power efficiency as well - https://microk8s.io/?_ga=2.40011622.572584182.1676996854-1728954411.1676996854 but the regular kind is also fine. If you run them in a lightweight Linux VM such as PhotonOS - https://github.com/vmware/photon - that would significantly reduce your power usage and you will also learn a lot of cool things along the way.

Got an r620 as the beginning piece to dormlab. What OS should I run on it? I'm thinking just Debian but I'm open to any suggestions.
ESXi with Photon OS for container hosts.

Want to try Docker: on a virtual machine
If you already have VMware ESXi, try VMware Photon OS. It's a Linux distro by VMware optimized for running as a virtual guest and comes with docker pre-installed. You can deploy it as an OVA or install from ISO. https://github.com/vmware/photon/wiki/Downloading-Photon-OS

Midarr - early preview of the next-generation media server. Free and open source.
Check out Vmware's container solution PhontonOS sometime. It works pretty well on esxi. https://github.com/vmware/photon

Microsoft is ending support for the Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA)
They're even already producing their own Linux distribution, CBL-Mariner, https://github.com/microsoft/azurelinux

GitHub and Developer Ecosystem Control
This became even more interesting as Microsoft started to open source core technology such as Powershell, the DotNET platform, their internal Linux distribution, and much more. All this hosting on GitHub also made sense acquisition wise.

Linux hit over 3% desktop user share according to Statcounter
Quite a few servers and network switches, actually.
- SUSE Preserves Choice in Enterprise Linux by Forking RHEL
- LXD is now under Canonical
- CBL-Mariner – internal Linux distribution for Microsoft’s cloud infrastructure
-
What is the future of Windows?
Likely a recognisable ‘Windows’ GUI on-top of CBL-Mariner
- Microsoft has made Azure Linux generally available
-
Excuse me, WHAT THE FUCK
Nothing new. For several years they already developed and maintained CBL-Mariner (Common Build Linux) https://github.com/microsoft/CBL-Mariner Which od a base for Azure Linux and other projects.
