Arch Server Progress4 days ago@Madchatthew The general rule of thumb with Linux is that every kernel update attracts a reboot. The reason for this is that these updates cannot be affected with the kernel in use, so a reboot is the only way to ensure you have the best protection.
You cannot upgrade the Linux kernel without rebooting. At least not in a way you would think.
There are technologies like systemtap, dtrace, kpatch or kgraft which allow for small modifications of kernel code. These are meant as short “workarounds” to prevent security threats, and to typically to give you more time until you plan a maintenance window for reboot.
You will have to reboot at some point and should design your infrastructure for that (in the commercial sense).

AI... A new dawn, or the demise of humanity ?8 days ago@Madchatthew only by placing that data behind a paywall, or behind a session type such as a login.
The real issue here is the plethora of mp3 files available on public ftp servers which can easily be crawled even if the original artist declines to grant permission.

AI... A new dawn, or the demise of humanity ?10 days ago@Madchatthew good points. However, I suspect that this data is being crawled anonymously, so in this case, I do wonder how enforceable a cease and desist would be.

AI... A new dawn, or the demise of humanity ?14 days ago@Madchatthew yes, I think this is where AI falls short as it’s unable to convey emotion. Much in the same manner as a poorly worded email or text message does the same in the sense that it can easily be misconstrued owing to the recipient not being able to determine tone for example - this obviously isn’t transmitted with only words, and therefore, the recipient has to try and determine how the message sound be interpreted - which is, in most cases, wrong.
Most musicians have a trademark style of playing (for example, guitar), and it’s impassible for this to be truly replicated by AI. A human playing the same instrument could play the same melody multiple times and it would be different on each occasion.

Infrared the new WiFi?19 days ago@JAC those speeds are indeed possible over light as a transport medium (if you consider the speed) but I can’t comprehend the distance quoted. If you happen to encounter a solid obstacle, the beam is either absorbed, or deflected meaning the data never arrives.
