Players on AMD64 systems can of course just re-enable this, as it's only the default I set, not permanently off. I might modify this default so it's only disabled on i386 builds in future." He encourages users to let him know of any issues that may arise. http://popey.com/blog/posts/openspades-snap-pew-pew.html == Ubuntu Cloud News == * OpenStack public cloud, from Stockholm to Dubai and everywhere between - https://insights.ubuntu.com/2017/04/24/openstack-public-cloud-from-stockholm-to-dubai-and-everywhere-between/ * Cloud Chatter: April 2017 - https://insights.ubuntu.com/2017/04/28/cloud-chatter-april-2017/ == Canonical News == * Canonical joins EdgeX Foundry to help unify IoT edge computing - https://insights.ubuntu.com/2017/04/24/canonical-joins-edgex-foundry-to-help-unify-iot-edge-computing/ * ROS production: obtaining confined access to the Turtlebot [4/5] - https://insights.ubuntu.com/2017/04/27/ros-production-obtaining-confined-access-to-the-turtlebot-45/ * Launchpad news, November 2015 - April 2017 - http://blog.launchpad.net/general/launchpad-news-november-2015-april-2017 == In The Blogosphere == === Canonical's Certified Ubuntu Images Land in Oracle's Bare Metal Cloud Service === Marius Nestor from Softpedia writes about the availability of certified images of Ubuntu on Oracle's Bare Metal Cloud Service.
