This actually genius!
Worth a scroll for the video.
It is very nice, however, the problem with self hosting your monitoring solution is self evident.
Uptime robot is a good hosted implementation although they do charge for a lot of basic features - feels like they haven’t quite nailed the monetisation aspect.
Anyone got any other recommendations for monitoring self hosted services?
Microsoft needs to sell its software (including OS) and they’ve always done so through manufacturers.
The average user, in their mind, doesn’t care about/want/have a choice for Windows, they just went to a shop to buy a computer, Windows was just on it. So for Microsoft, a public company who’s graphs need to keep going up forever, “increasing revenue from Windows” equates to “making people buy more computers” - this, in my opinion, is why they went down the TPM route (which consumers didn’t care about), and now, the “Copilot compatible” PC (whixh users don’t care about) routes. For the shareholders, you need a new computer, not an update to your existing one.
So this is where it gets interesting - a catch 22 for Microsoft - the average user doesn’t want a new computer (the internet works fine right), but Microsoft need their graphs to go up and they don’t want to work for free… BUT they can’t afford to have “Windows” become synonymous with “viruses” again (they bothered to make Windows defender for free for this reason), so if people don’t pay up, there could be millions of virus ridden computers and everyone will look for a new laptop “but not windows again” because of the viruses…
Mac instead? Maybe, but most laptops are sold for €300, not €1000+…
Current known, “safe consumer choice” brands (OEMs) and big box retailers are and will continue to be influenced/controlled/blackmailed by Microsoft’s license pricing and legal teams to maintain the status quo on the shelves and we’ll see what plays out.
This subscription talk then is big news, not just because of the controversy surround subscriptions generally, but because this could change the shape of supply and demand in the PC market significantly.
As always there won’t be one answer for everyone, but these are some ways it could play out.
Will people pay up? Will Chromebooks take over?
Or…

…will 2025 be the year of the Linux desktop?
For the UK alone:
In 2022, they found more than 40 tonnes of lithium from single-use vapes was discarded, which is the same amount used to power 5,000 electric vehicles.
Not surprised at all - €3.5k is car money territory, not “new tech toy” territory like say an iPad or a phone upgrade.
It is a very cool product, about where I’d expect the technology to be at following the quest’s release a few years back, unfortunately it’s not €500!
Beautiful fish! What are they?
James Acaster probably my fav standup comedian.
“Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.”
Kinda cool though tbf. Wrappable tech would be an awesome next step, like a watch that’s all screen that you can completely wrap around your wrist.

This is definitely a concept for emails/tickets so i assume it is for calls.
It’s called “sentiment” analysis.
Priority can also be given in some systems by customer value.
My new oven is so energy efficient it takes 20 mins to warm up before cooking a pizza for ten minutes.
Private contracts should not trump the law of the land.
PHP should stand for “Pre Hypertext Processor”.
Instead of being a recursive acronym for “PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor”.
Indeed.
When popular “real artists” release songs, they usually won’t have written the lyrics or the music, leaving just the vocals, which they will auto tune and possibly even mime in future performances.
A producer will then use powerful software to mix and refine everything.
So really the question to me is not about “is there anything impure in this art?” It’s “where is the line?”.
How does the image scanning compare to docker scout? (Or whatever the docket desktop one is called).

Old news, no?
