In this Technology Short Take, I have links on things ranging from physical network designs to running retro operating systems as virtual machines. Eduard Tolosa discusses binding wireless network adapters to systemd-nspawn containers. Nikhil shares a framework for selecting a Linux distribution. The first one is here.

Here’s a quick post on nftables , the (eventual) Linux replacement for iptables. Turns out there’s a security vulnerability in some of the wireless keyboard and mice out there. Check out this blog on work done to bring firmware updates into the land of Linux. Virtualization. Cloud Computing/Cloud Management.
