Google becomes third major cloud vendor to tie the knot with VMware

Remember - Cloud computing

Is nothing more than putting your crap on someone else's computer that other people are using , and expecting the owners to care more about it than you do..

But this is nothing new. There are already 3rd party products (RightScale comes to mind ) that allow you to migrate loads from VmWare to AWS , or Openstack ( Rackpace) ;

Just remember -- they want your data - Once you load your data off-site ; Cloud providers make their money from the storage retention .

Alibaba sketches world's 'fastest' 'open-source' RISC-V processor yet: 16 cores, 64-bit, 2.5GHz, 12nm, out-of-order exec

what is wattage ?

Chrome on, baby, don't fear The Reaper: Plugin sends CPU-hogging browser processes to hell where they belong

and Chrome will consume 70% of memory over days ; and idles at 30% CPU even when I'm not doing any browsing

I see 20+ children threads running

Big Purple Hat is on as IBM closes acquisition of enterprise Linux firm

Did these people ever pass math tests ?

India Business Machines purchased RH for $34B

IBM's revenue in 2018 was $79.6bn, against which Red Hat's $3.4bn

The Purple company blew 1/2 of their revenue to buy a company that makes 5% of that ?
