No. I upgrade my Ubuntus before they go EOL so I don’t need ESM.

Most places that want ESM do so because they can’t get away from EOL versions. I refuse to get stuck in that swamp myself, so I run LTS and migrate/rebuild them when necessary.

Dozens? Name three, and be sure to include number of aps in each ecosystem.

I’m sure there are dozens of Chinese smart watches, but most that I’ve seen are white-labels and sorely missing an ecosystem.

Methinks you underestimate the complexity.

And all the other watch makers I’ve looked at are not doing, or even considering, what Pebble did.

Because good software is hard. The PebbleOS is a gem, and no, no one could in 9 years.

Google dumped the Pebble OS code on GitHub when this whole “rePebble” thing (not Rebble) started. Now there’s a new phone app coming out soon (or out now, depending on your platform and abilities) that handles old and new Pebbles and modern phone platforms.

None of this is from Google.

Look into ffmpeg’s “concat” feature. It can do what you want. https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Concatenate

Ah. It just didn’t compute for me. I’d think stopping the DHCP server or making it not listen on that interface would be easier than trying to firewall it off.

Yeah, blocking thise inbound and outbound will quiet that service.

Block port 68 as well as 67. And are you sure the output rule is the best place for that?

It’s not GP itself that’s he problem, it’s supposed to work on a few mainstream distris, but the Company admins responsible noped out. They had such a hard time making Windows and Mac work that they can’t be bothered for “a couple of Linux users”.

Right now I’m stuck on a Mac laptop. I hate it, but after our Network team could not manage to get Global Protect working on Linux, and my boss decided keeping them happy was easier than keeping me productive, I didn’t have much choice (Mac or Windows). I’ve worked in environments before where I was able to run Linux on my laptop/workstation, so long as I was able to support myself and do the required work. I used remote desktop (Or a Windows VM) for my Windows work; my browser and Java for most everything else. Now even Office is a shitty webapp for the most part, and Teams “works” on Linux (As much as Teams works at all).

Even here, I have to wait until Helpdesk manages to build out support for new Mac OS releases, so I’m still on 14.6.

I told them prior that I would be leaving the company if they forced me to migrate to Mac. I’m currently looking for a better position elsewhere and will tell them exactly why when I turn in my notice. Not that it will change anything, it’ll help me feel better.

Have you never lost your password device (phone, laptop, etc) suddenly and unexpectedly? That’s when you really want that file synced somewhere else. But then it’s too late. Bonus on many password vault servers is shared folders, so one can share their garage door code with the family but keep the bank account details to oneself.
