Re: Those b4st4rds
How times have changed. Forty-odd years ago I was weaned on Greene King bitter. The town was full of their pubs and the majors could barely manage a token presence in the same of such quality competition.

I've lived in France these last twenty years and usually each time I see an example of French govt. stupidity it is usually matched in due course by British govt. stupidity. No sooner do I think 'no-one could do any worse!' than, yep, they match it in spades. However, I think Britain is currently winning the race to the bottom. I'm not sure that even the French political elite really come up to something to match Brexit.
I think I know exactly the channel you are talking about. I must admit it is a bizarre decision.
I know another channel (often showing up in the same recommendations as that channel) where the guy uses his two children in many of the vids. Yet comments have not been disabled on his channel. Yet.
But neither channel features their children 'inappropriately' - they just do travelogs. And both have fairly healthy subscription and viewing figures, considering they are not doing mainstream pap.
"That's right, it's only supported on Windows 8.1+. The only Linux distro I know of that supports it is OpenSUSE Tumbleweed..."
Hmmm... I installed the patched kernel, rebooted and the workstation crashed while loading the desktop. Repeated three times with the same results, before rolling back to the previous kernel. So I'm not sure that Tumbleweed supports this, yet.
Xen does suffer from that tiny problem that it is not linux. They managed to keep it quite for a long time but now that there is an alternative I'd say the game is up.
KVM is rapidly reaching the point where xen is no longer relevant on a linux distro. So Novell have to provide full support for it, otherwise users and customers will abandon (open)SUSE.
RedHat, of course, have two strategies - developing KVM while simultaneously enhancing libvirt to work with all known hypervisors. And suse are starting to suffer, afaict, because they do not _seem_ to involved in the development of either. Which makes it an unnecessary hassle for anyone who wants to use the latest libvirt code on a suse distro.
I think the article and a lot of the comments miss the point. Intel have basically disabled VT on a lot of chips that otherwise are capable of it. The policy is not at all transparent and seems to exist for no other reason than to make punters who need the feature part with more money.
I've been a happy AMD customer for years and they are much more straightforward about this. The rule there is that VT is enabled on pretty much all chips, except maybe single core semprons.
I've been stung by this Intel policy once and it will be a long time before I buy another Intel processor.
