It comes via FedEx in Germany. And at your door they hand it to you and don’t need a signature. At least that what‘s was with my first package.

Had to get some replacement as my FW keyboards had a short. So the replacement was a bit more nerve wrecking. The driver came 3 times always when I am not at home. After 3 time FedEx contacted me via phone to schedule a new date for delivery. But I guess there was an overlap as the driver didn’t come. I already had requested to pick it up at their hub via e-mail so I guess the driver got cancelled after my mail was processed. And then I went to their hub when the notification mail came I can pick it up.

Hm. Lag spikes in Tarkov and you check your server? I mean Tarkov.

But yeah I can feel your misconception here. But I am also the other way around I uninstalled firewalld and do all on iptables level. I am just more used to iptables. And so the sole controlling instance is iptables. In the end it’s all netfilter in kernel space.

FedEx in Germany is even worse than DPD and that’s hard. But I have the feeling they are more suited towards B2B here in Germany than all the other services as they don’t really have an infrastructure with pick up shops. I ended up mailing them that I pickup the package at their Hub here in the town I live. Luckily it’s only 10 minutes by car to their Hub. That was way easier than to coordinate a date as they basically only deliver when I am at work and don’t do weekend delivery. (I guess it’s extra and framework only offers weekday delivery via FedEx).

Fun thing is a return shipment you get a UPS Return label.

Nope. No VMs. Don’t know why would I if I have a dedicated XCP-NG pool for that.

XFCE on Fedora 39 runs stable too.

I use rdiff-backup to backup the volumes directory of my VPS to a local machine via VPN. Containers are stored in some public registry anyways. Also use ansible with all the configurations and container settings.

So you know how to do it securely and analyze what may go one when it is attacked. Or what else do you want with cybersecurity? It’s about securing services on the global network and local. And webhosting is one of those service.

Sounds like FedEx issue had something similar with the replacement delivery. I emailed them that I pick up the package at their hub. If you live near a hub or other distribution center of theirs try to get it as self pickup.

Yes and no. Depends. What‘s you use cases? Can Linux fulfill them? Did you check that?

Ferdora 39 worked without a hitch. Even had no issues with BIOS 3.02 which allegedly had freezes.

You shouldn’t look at the hardware but at the software. For what will you use the laptop? What Applications do you plan to use. Are there Mac specific things you plan to do. Or do you have windows specific tasks. Or even would Linux the best platform for you.

If price is not a factor the software that supports your daily work the best will should be the decider.

Batch 1 here. For me it took one day from payment to shipping confirmation. Maybe you are more to the end of the orders. Also here in Germany get ready for a ride with FedEx. Took me a week to get my package from them after they missed me at home by 5 minutes on their first try.
