When you have battery life beyond 5s next year you'll be thankful

Yeah, I'm sorry to say that is a result of good marketing. I work at a university and we have experience with a good number of XPS laptops.

We saw at least a 60% problem rate, and Dell's support was dog slow. Batteries being the weak spot. Because it's thin it is more fragile, we saw a number of broken screens, and keyboards. One survived a Gatorade spill, but another failed after a water spill. Go figure

A three year warranty helped, but we were out of a laptop for months at a time, more than once on the same laptop.

Ultra thin laptops look cool, but suck in almost every other way. If you need thin then get a MacBook Air.

I'm surprised this had to be said. 6 days before the balots are ordered.

“The constitution is clear: you must be (at least) 40 years old and not be an insurrectionist,”

can threads users follow me?

Geez really? I had no idea that pedestrians were so careless, what is it about larger trucks that makes people jump out in front of them.

I like to see things as an opportunity, and I think we can use this as a lesson to do things differently. Like, let's make trucks louder so you hear them before you see them. More Turbo, and how about vertical tail pipe stack. Next we can increase the number of lights, and make them brighter so that everyone can see. Let's add more cameras and computers so the driver can see their blind spots simply by looking at the command console screen. We can even make these features available for free for a small amount of non invasive advertising.

Do you remember how trains solved the problems of cows derailing trains. They put a guard on the front. So let's make an even bigger steel bumper.

Match blocks allow you to restrict who/what is allowed or not allowed to connect to the server. There is a large number of options to utilize. Put this near the bottom of sshd_config. There should be an example there.

Yes that's the right way to block root login. An added filter you can use the 'match' config expression to filter logins even further.

If you're on the open network, your connection will be heavily hit with login attempts. That is normal. But using another service like Fail2Ban will stop repeated hits to your host.

~~Ssh listens on port 22, as soon as a connection is made the host moves the connection to another port to free up 22 for other new connections.~~ Btw: I wasn't thinking clearly here. Out going connections won't be using port 22, but the listening incoming port is always 22.

This is the way.

AKA don't be this guy.

Don't trust executables on your computer. A Windows VM in a Linux host that you revert to a prior snapshot of you're really curious.

Wix.com Ltd. (Hebrew: וויקס.קום, romanized: wix.com) is an Israeli software company,

The conflict aside, WIX is a corporation with strong political and theological roots. Even if the technology is good, choosing that platform comes with baggage.

The XPS line was popular at work. Desk candy to compete with Mac books. However the engineering did not complete at all. The battery was the biggest fail point, we had a high percentage of battery issues under warranty, and they would take months to get replaced by the vendor.

We stopped buying them, if someone wants desk candy these days it's mostly Mac book pro as expensive as your budget can handle.

I can completely respect your perspective. Yes I was being short when I made this comment, no offense to the op was intended.

To patronize a service because its good does not imply loyalty.

Apple has a long history of being manipulative and exploitative of their customers. Being loyal to them (from my perspective) is like being loyal to an abusive person. You obey their commands not because of respect, but because you feel an emotional bond to them.
