This is a special edition podcast this month! We'll be back next month with more great content! Enjoy!

It's been nearly a year since I released my video on VergeIO's virtualization platform, #VergeOS. A lot has changed in a year, and I've been curious to see how things have been going for Verge, what new innovations they've been bringing to their platform, and where the #homelab version of VergeOS is!

In this interview, I sit down with Jason Yeager, SVP of Engineering at VergeIO, to talk about:
  •. The state of virtualization after VMware & Broadcom
  •. Why companies like Topgolf and federal agencies are choosing VergeOS
  •. Huge upcoming integrations: Veeam, NVIDIA vGPU, and AI orchestration
  •. The long-awaited Community Edition and why it matters
  •. How VergeIO is helping customers future-proof with edge, AI, and simplified infrastructure

You can find VergeIO at:  https://www.verge.io/

In this episode, we tackle the news of Google and Meta forcing people to prove their age, the UK government asking people to delete their email and pictures to save water, AOL dial-up coming to an end, OpenAI's ChatGPT5's rough rollout and breaking up with their best friends, and SCALE Computing gets acquired by Acumera.

This month's main topic is all about Red Hat's release of #RHEL 10 and the new features it brings (surprise, surprise... there's AI in it!)

This month's pod is all about revisiting AI now that it's been a year since we talked about it last. Rich and Branden go over how they're using AI in the daily lives, the value each of them feel it provides for them, and then things take a turn as they discuss the advent of AI agents and the potentially disastrous effects it will have on engineering in the future.

There has been a lot of talk on tech Youtube about De-”Google” or “De-Microsoft” yourself and your company. While we completely agree that you as a user or a business should have complete control over your data, we find that some of the solutions provided have major pitfalls that either make it unattainable to the average user or missing major features. We wanted to give both sides of the argument since it seemed very one-sided from our point of view.
