- The Atari VCS is almost here. (Tom's Hardware)
Hidden inside the retro-ugly case is a Ryzen embedded APU - just a tiny one, with 2 cores / 4 threads and Vega 3 graphics. So, basically, 20 times as fast as a Playstation 2.
$249 with 4GB RAM, $279 with 8GB. ETA March 2020.
- Russia will ban all VPN providers who are any good. (TechDirt)
Which comes as no surprise to anyone.
- Is content moderation impossible at scale or is Twitter just run by idiots? (TechDirt)
We report, you facepalm.
- Modern web-based documentation systems SUCK. Give me back Word! Give me back Ami Pro for that matter.
Video of the Day
Two tech journalists talk tech.
Disclaimer: Bleh. It's been one of those weeks. One of our MongoDB servers died Tuesday; our GitLab server exploded today. No data lost but I could have done without the excitement.

The magic smoke comes out of the Gitlab admins' ears when they're trying to diagnose the problem. Until I had to deal with Gitlab, I didn't even know you could strace every process on the system at the same time and log them all to files, much less need to.

I should see if I can find the photos our colo facility sent us a few years ago when one of our servers literally caught fire.
