The new Flow from ServiceNow looks interesting and definetly a trial is worth, but what I’m concerned about is the pricing statement: 2$/conversation and 1$/automation. What do you mean “conversation” and not “resolution”?!?!?! letsflow.ai/pricing

Ubuntu on main laptop, Mint for an older one

Interesting view…debian will go on
The truth is, it’s been a long time since a device actually amazed me or changed my perceptions. And somehow this tiny 13 inch device with no screaming fans like we are used to achieved that. Kudos @Apple
Even funnier, I got the current Macbook at a sale with an M2 and 84% battery life. Somehow, that 84% battery life kept me going for an almost ~11 hour work day without charging. How is that even possible?! Now I wonder, how long does a Macbook pro can hold without charging?

In the past I wondered why somebody would pay the asked price for an Apple laptop. Now I am wondering why you would pay the same amount (or in some cases even higher) or lower amount for a generic laptop. It simply does not make sense unless you go for a full gaming experience

I’ve learned and used multiple systems and OSes during my time:Windows, RedHat,truenas, Ubuntu, Mint & now Bazite. But now owning a Macbook Air completely changes my view on how a laptop should be! I am now at a point where I am wonder if I will ever get a different OS laptop

We still have some work to do. #MSIX was launched 8 years ago and people still don't understand how AppData is handled in MSIX packaged applications. stackoverflow.com/questions/…

Did anybody else noticed lately after some updates that the link local ipv6 is not so randomly generated? I’ve seen dozen of devices generating the same ipv6 at the same time. What is happening?

❗️❗️❗️Important notification for Endpoint Admins ❗️❗️❗️ Impacts both win32 apps and scripts in Intune. Unfortunate timing combined with a very late notification - surely this could have been handled differently ... #microsoft #intune
