New top story on Hacker News: Ask HN: Lenovo encouraging Chromebook users to install Linux?

Ask HN: Lenovo encouraging Chromebook users to install Linux? 7 by vector_spaces | 3 comments on Hacker News. I was surprised to see that Lenovo has a guide to installing the Linux distro of your choosing on a Lenovo Chromebook device. I guess the cynic in me expects that companies want you to use whatever OS is bundled with the hardware rather than encouraging users to use the hardware the way they'd like -- or at least that they wouldn't want to make it easy to overwrite the ChromeOS install by providing a helpful how-to! Can anyone think of why Lenovo would do this? I would expect that this would potentially draw the ire of Google, but surely Lenovo has thought this through and maybe knows Google doesn't care enough? Just curious if anyone can speak to Lenovo's incentive calculus here https://ift.tt/XWVlwkf (Ps: the guide is somewhat out of date -- for those curious, this seems the way forward for Chromebook users looking to install a Linux distro of their choosin...

New top story on Hacker News: Russia has started indiscriminately blocking all OpenVPN/WireGuard connections

Russia has started indiscriminately blocking all OpenVPN/WireGuard connections 60 by itvision | 20 comments on Hacker News. For the past three days Russians have been unable to use their VPN services working via OpenVPN/WireGuard protocols, and some even have reported that in certain situations SSH connections have stopped working. The prospect of an isolated Russian interweb has become oh so real. As a person currently residing in Russia I can confirm that I've been unable to connect to my favourite VPN provider for the past three days, not even its official application works. I've not seen any discussions on the English-peaking Internet, not it's been in the news for some reasons despite its importance in preserving freedom of information and opinions. In the Russian internet it's being hotly debated here: https://ift.tt/3XSJKm7 More on the topic: https://ift.tt/Gmpwy3o

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: Conway's Game of Life, but with a gallery of other peoples patterns

Show HN: Conway's Game of Life, but with a gallery of other peoples patterns 5 by Dave_Bruwer | 2 comments on Hacker News. This is my spin on Conway's Game of Life. I have added the ability to create an account, save grids that you have discovered, and browse the gallery of grids saved by other people and replay them. This project has served as a sandbox for me to practice various aspects of developing a comprehensive web application from scratch. This was my first time developing a full scale web app with [almost] all the features you would expect. I know it is nowhere near perfect in its current state, but I feel it has reached a point of diminishing returns, and therefore my time is better spent focussing on other projects with more potential. I may continue to develop this project further in the future just for fun.
