      Well it is specifically Android TV, so if you want the Android TV OS, interface and compatibility. It's a video gaming platform as well as television system.

      Its not through. Its a stock Android 5.1 image that requires you to get a media style interface from the Play Store, rather than a "proper" Android TV system.

      Weird, maybe they pulled the version. They have Android 7 TV...

      When you are talking about Ubuntu, you're talking about admins using it.. not home users. As such the lack of new things making would never be acceptable to home users - they are constantly looking for new things.. and if they can't find it in the normal store.. they will go elsewhere if it's possible at all.

      I've never met those home users. What things are they looking for? I rarely see home users install anything but malware. All they use are web browsers.

      Yeah I read that the same way @Kelly .

      That's like being paranoid about catching some tropical rain forest virus when you live in the tundra, so you just stay home all day and night.

      A bit of an old post (2013) but apparently "Facebook doesn't virtualize its servers, because its software already consumes all the hardware resources, meaning virtualization would result in a performance penalty without a gain in efficiency."

      Seems odd, but ok, and I assume their still using Spinning Rust too... (again I know the topic is almost 2 years old)

      This is one of those odd situations. I had a 10K compute node (yes, 10K individual servers) cluster on Wall St. We didn't virtualize at the individual server level because the entire thing was treated as a single computer and virtualized at the cluster level.

      This is what Facebook is doing. Those are not really individual computers, the virtualization is up the stack higher.

      You can even do this at home with Maas and Juju 🙂

      Not quite the same. That's just super efficient management of hardware. It doesn't turn the hardware itself into a cluster that acts like a single computer. It acts, more or less, like an autoprovisioning cloud, but not like virtualization.

      Yeah I really would love to have a Microsoft Book, but damn if it gets bricked out of the box would I be pissed!

      Have you heard of this being a problem?

      While I too think the MS Surface Book looks slick, first product in a long time I only really want because of the look, the lack of good lapability makes me not want it.
