How to transform your Ubuntu installation into a rolling release
Author: Bill Toulas • Tags: linux, ubuntu • Comments: 7
Ubuntu users out there have two ways to go with their systems. Either they choose to follow the “standard” release that gets upgraded every six months, or choose the latest LTS (Long Term Support) which guarantees security updates and support for a five-year period. The problem with the first is that you'll have to perform major upgrades to your system twice a year, while the issue with the latter is that you won't get any major updates on parts of the system that you may care about using what's latest.

Thoughts on intermediate compatibile SSL with Let's Encrypt certificates
Author: Patrik Habdak • Tags: linux, security • Comments: 2
Many people have decided to implement Let's Encrypt into their production sites. I find this still a very bad idea to be done without being very (but really very) careful. Let's Encrypt brings you freedom but also limits you in using the certificate with SHA-256 RSA Encryption. Support for SHA-256 has improved over the last few years. Most browsers, platforms, mail clients and mobile devices already support SHA-256. However, some older operating systems such as Windows XP pre-SP3 do not support SHA-256 encryption. Many organizations will be able to convert to SHA-256 without running into user experience issues, and many may want to encourage users running older, less secure systems to upgrade. In this tutorial, we are going to deal with this incompatibility in a simple, but still nasty way.
