This is a special edition podcast this month! We'll be back next month with more great content! Enjoy! It's been nearly a year since I released my video on VergeIO's virtualization platform, #VergeOS. A lot has changed in a year, and I've been curious to see how things have been going for Verge, what new innovations they've been bringing to their platform, and where the #homelab version of VergeOS is! In this interview, I sit down with Jason Yeager, SVP of Engineering at VergeIO, to talk abo...
In this episode, we tackle the news of Google and Meta forcing people to prove their age, the UK government asking people to delete their email and pictures to save water, AOL dial-up coming to an end, OpenAI's ChatGPT5's rough rollout and breaking up with their best friends, and SCALE Computing gets acquired by Acumera. This month's main topic is all about Red Hat's release of #RHEL 10 and the new features it brings (surprise, surprise... there's AI in it!) Send us a text Support the show Th...

There has been a lot of talk on tech Youtube about De-”Google” or “De-Microsoft” yourself and your company. While we completely agree that you as a user or a business should have complete control over your data, we find that some of the solutions provided have major pitfalls that either make it unattainable to the average user or missing major features. We wanted to give both sides of the argument since it seemed very one-sided from our point of view. Support the show This video is brought...

In the post-vmware world we live in today, many people are evaluating where to turn next for their virtualization needs. In this video, I sat down with Tom Lawrence to discuss the viability of open-source hypervisors as an alternative to #vmware and other closed-source hypervisors available today. We touch on #XCP-ng and #Proxmox, their viability in business, the #homelab, whether a Broadcom-style takeover could happen to them, and much more! A very special thank you to Tom Lawrence fo...

Rich and Branden tackle companies' abilities to spy on their employees, the tools and methods at their disposal to spy, and the steps you can take to protect yourself. Gone are the days of needing specialized corporate spyware to monitor employees. These days, practically every security tool provides a glimpse into user behavior. We'll talk about EDRs like Crowdstrike, micro-segmentation tools, and Microsoft and their 'gentler approach' to spying on employees. Would you rather watch th...
