  5. Ask HN: What do you think about Peter Zeihan's Geopolitical Analysis?

    I've been watching some videos and Keynotes delivered by Peter Zeihan, I may read his last book, but I would like to know HN's opinion of analysis. All his explanations really make sense but his claims sound hyperbolic.…

  16. Ask HN: Would it be possible to use QubesOS with Silverblue and Nix/Guix?

    Fedora Silverblue provides an immutable base system, which makes it easier and faster to upgrade. That in itself looks like a great feature to use as a TemplateVM on QubesOS. The problem is that since the base image is…

  17. Ask HN: Why has most countries' government response to the virus been slow?

    The government's response to the SARS-CoV-2 virus in most western countries (US and Europe) has been slow, and more strict measures have not been taken until the confirmed case count is on the thousands, where it's too…

  19. Ask HN: Would it be possible to reimplement Qubes OS but lighter?

    Would it be possible to reimplement a concept like QubesOS using something like Kata Containers, maybe with Firecracker MicroVM? SubgraphOS uses sandboxes, so I think it's maybe a closer concept, but has critized…

    I was looking for a secure email address. After some research, Protonmail, although it looks good, and has a A+ SSL rating, can't be used with POP3/IMAP, only with their proprietary API with their web client or mobile…

  23. Cloudatcost one time payment now has a recurring payment

    Cloudatcost updated their ToS and now for the "one time payment" servers now there's a yearly recurring "maintenance" fee of $9. They didn't advertise that change, just updated their ToS.

  24. Ask HN: Ultrabook for programming?

    I was considering buying an Ultrabook for a long trip. I don't want to make a big investment, so something like a Surface Pro is too expensive, but I would like to be able to use it both as a tablet and as a desktop…
