Have had decent luck with #broadcom on old macs (specifically Mac Air) using Ubuntu.

Broadcom has two security advisories, one of them for a high-severity vulnerability:

OPS/MVS 14.0 - OPSMVS MTC-A Vulnerability (Upgrades Spring Boot 3.5.13 to 3.5.14) and Trusted Access Manager for Z 1.1 vulnerability https://support.broadcom.com/web/ecx/security-advisory #Broadcom #vulnerability #infosec

One of my fears of homelabbing is the reliance on (3rd party) #Docker/#container images that could just be gone someday. I've already had it happen once, with #Bitnami images (fuck #Broadcom).

One way I previously thought to combat this is to manually pull the image bundle and host it in your own container registry. This works, but obviously not a reasonable effort to do and reproduce for more than ~1-2 images.

Then, the moment I discovered
#Amazon/#AWS has such a thing that addresses this - pull through cache for their #ECR, I looked up on how I can have the same kind of setup on my #homelab, and sure enough, there are already several options. I went with #Zot, and it's working pretty freaking well. Now, anytime I pull any images from registries I've configured Zot to sync like #GitHub's ghcr.io, docker.io, public.ecr.aws, they'll all be pulled/cached first on my own Zot instance and stored for good there.

Man, I wish I looked into this much earlier - but better late than never.

Ubuntu broken packages and broken GUI issue

I was running Ubuntu Desktop 20.04. I tried installing Broadcom WiFi firmware, and this caused the display to stop working, although the system would still boot to the shell and the WiFi is now

Ask Ubuntu

I told my old Ubuntu mac to do an os update and WiFi quit working.

I told it to uninstall and then install the broadcom drivers, but it hasn't worked.

Ideas welcome.

Getting #AI to work reliably in production requires not just new tools, but integration with the legacy tools that still run systems of record at many large companies.

Updates over the last two months to workload and #mainframe automation tools from #Broadcom, #BMC and #IBM will begin connecting #agenticAI to systems at the heart of the most critical enterprise workflows.
