ProxLB 1.0.7 (an opensource DRS alike solution for #Proxmox clusters) is just around the corner!
1.0.7 will be the last version before I'm going to publish the new refactored code base in a modern and object oriented way. Version 1.1.0 squashes some more bugs that were postponed on the current code base and makes the overall future handling much easier (including new features).

Without virtualization, there would be no cloud computing — and no modern IT.
Virtualization enables multiple virtual machines to run on a single physical system, optimizing resource use and scalability. While cloud computing started with virtualization, newer technologies like containerization and serverless computing are now shaping the future of IT.

**DEX Exchange: What It Is and How to Get Started**
Decentralization is one of the key principles of the crypto industry, so it's no surprise that the popularity of De-Fi and decentralized exchanges (DEX) has been growing for several years. In this article, Trustee specialists will explain what decentralized cryptocurrency exchanges are, how they are regulated, how they differ from centralized exchanges, and how to start using them. Read on for an overview of their advantages and disadvantages, predicted future prospects, and a ranking of the best decentralized exchanges!
### What Is a DEX Exchange?
A decentralized exchange (DEX) is a platform for exchanging digital assets that operates based on decentralization—without central governance by an individual or group of people and without a central node or server.
Essentially, a DEX is a blockchain-based platform that facilitates peer-to-peer (P2P) transactions without intermediaries. It does not store user personal data or their financial information on its servers. Users exchange assets through smart contracts and algorithms based on a distributed ledger.
Many exchanges that call themselves decentralized actually store trading data and user order information on their servers, even though they do not hold private keys. The first efforts to create cryptocurrency DEXs emerged in 2014, but significant development only started in 2018.
### Regulation of DEXs
Governments have mixed opinions on financial-technology platforms that are governed solely by their user communities, with no central entity accountable for transactions.
As with cryptocurrency in general, authorities in different countries have not reached a consensus. For example, Singapore’s regulator seeks to develop a regulatory framework specifically for DEXs, while the U.S. attempts to apply existing laws.
In most countries, decentralized exchanges remain unregulated as they are not tied to any legal entities. This means that in case of violations, there is no single entity to hold accountable or to send official requests.
### How DEXs Work
Orders are executed on the blockchain using smart contracts. User funds remain on their own devices. While decentralized exchanges operate on various blockchains, the most popular ones use Tron, Ethereum, and Binance Chain.
A DEX serves as a marketplace for matching buy and sell orders. Once orders are matched, trading occurs directly between users.
### Pros and Cons of DEXs
**Advantages** | **Disadvantages**
--- | ---
No central governing authority; operates automatically or with community governance | No official customer support
Completely anonymous transactions | Difficulties converting fiat currencies
Secure data storage | Complex user interface, challenging for beginners
No need for user identification (KYC/AML) | No data recovery options for users
Fair pricing with no market manipulation | Trading limited to tokens that support smart contracts
Regulators cannot freeze accounts | Smaller liquidity pools compared to centralized exchanges
Transparent transactions | Limited functionality (e.g., no margin trading, stop-loss orders, leverage)
No counterparty risks | Potential smart contract vulnerabilities
Ability to trade tokens not listed on centralized exchanges | Slower trading speeds compared to centralized exchanges
No single point of failure |
### Differences Between Decentralized and Centralized Exchanges
The main difference is the absence of a central governing entity that controls user data and exchange operations. In DEXs, governance is automated or semi-automated, with community involvement in decision-making.
DEXs are more suitable for experienced traders. Users manage their own funds and trades without access to customer support or fund recovery options. While this ensures full control, it also places sole responsibility on the user. However, all transactions are fully transparent, as all activity can be tracked on the blockchain.
Centralized exchanges (CEXs) have tools for market manipulation and can freeze user accounts at any time due to "suspicious" activity. Additionally, since CEXs have legal addresses, government authorities in some jurisdictions can seize their assets, confiscate servers, and freeze user accounts. These actions are not possible on DEXs because their servers are distributed across various locations, placing them in a legal gray area.
### Examples of Decentralized Exchanges
The number of DEX platforms has significantly increased in recent years. Below are some of the most popular and highly rated decentralized cryptocurrency exchanges.
- **JustSwap** – A decentralized trading protocol on TRON for automated liquidity provision.
- **IDEX** – A real-time DEX for ERC-20 tokens on Ethereum with hardware wallet support and the ability to cancel orders without fees.
- **Waves DEX** – A cross-platform exchange built on the Waves blockchain that allows trading token pairs without needing an intermediary currency.
- **PancakeSwap** – A DEX on Binance Smart Chain (BSC) that supports BEP-20 token trading, liquidity rewards, and features NFT collections and lotteries.
- **Bancor Network** – A decentralized exchange with automatic pricing and no price difference between buy and sell orders.
- **Binance DEX** – A decentralized counterpart to Binance’s main exchange.
- **Uniswap** – A decentralized exchange on Ethereum featuring an automated liquidity protocol.
Decentralized exchanges are a cornerstone of the DeFi movement, offering enhanced security, transparency, and user control. However, they also present usability challenges and require users to take full responsibility for their funds. Understanding how DEXs operate and their key differences from centralized exchanges is essential for making informed decisions in crypto trading.

VirtualBox Update Adds Support for Linux Kernel 6.13
VirtualBox 7.1.6 is out, the third maintenance release to the VirtualBox 7.1 stable series first released in September of last year. Headline offering in this update is initial support for the recently released Linux kernel 6.13 in Linux Guest Additions, plus improved support for the Linux 6.4 kernel to fix graphics freezing when using VBoxVGA adapter, and Linux 6.12 fixes for vboxvideo. Linux guest screens no longer flicker when using VMSVGA graphics adapters, Windows 11 24H2 guests no longer throw BSODs, and entering a custom proxy server in a guest OSes’ settings does now take effect, which some will be

Since I was able to snag a #MiniPC from #Beelink the other day for a ridiculous price I am now migrating all my #VirtualMachines and #Containers from my older #Server running #Proxmox to the new Beelink machine.
The old server (a HP Z420 workstation) seems to "fall asleep" infrequently and sometimes it's enough to unplug the network cable and reconnect it again. But I'm tired of such workarounds.
Just in case you use #littlesnitch on #macos and virtualise using #utm. UTM bypasses little snitch, so all the #virtualmachines in utm are not affected by the rules you set in little snitch.
The opposite is #parallels, it costs money, but doesn't bypass little snitch.
VMware Workstation Pro Update Brings Linux Fixes
Broadcom has released updates for VMware Workstation Pro for Windows and Linux, the first to arrive since the software became entirely free to use. Earlier this year, Broadcom made VMware Workstation Pro and its Mac equivalent Fusion Pro free for personal usage, and later for commercial usage. Anyone can download and install VMware’s desktop virtualisation software to use for whatever they want. — Assuming they have the patience to wade through rerouting links, portals, checkboxes, and dense documentation sites to locate the actual download. A blog post from a VMware team member walks through the 11 step (!) process. As

To my fellow blind DOS users. I have some real machines and genuine hardware synthesizers, but at the moment, they're not available. I have a Windows 3.1 virtual machine with ASAP installed. Someone gave it to me a few years ago. But I think there's a problem with com0com. I have both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. I think the older one I used wouldn't work on 64-bit systems. Regardless, I forget how to use it. I know I need to set it to com9, so that ASAP thinks I'm using a Braille-N-Speak, when it's really NVDA that's outputting the speech. Can anyone help me? Also, I know that many developments have taken place since the last official version of MS-DOS, from FreeDOs, to FreeDOS-32, to Enhanced DR-DOS. I also know that the Provox screen reader has been made open source. To my knowledge, it's the only one that has. Has anyone tried to update it or use it with the later versions of DOS? What about real software synthesizers? Is there any way for me to obtain a full version of Vocal-Eyes, now that the company that made it isn't even around anymore, let alone supporting it?
