Would you pay $1m for a laptop full of malware?
A laptop deliberately infected with six notorious strains of malware, including WannaCry and ILoveYou, is being auctioned in the US as an art project.
At time of writing, the highest bid for the device was $1.1m (£800,000).
The auction states that the Samsung laptop's internet connectivity will be disabled when the device is shipped to the auction winner.
The 11-year-old Notebook has been air-gapped - a security measure to isolate it from other networks.Bunch of dumb asses, wasting over $1million on a 11 year old laptop. What's the point?
I could do that with any old piece of hardware I have here.
then do it and get a million dollars.
I'm not nearly motivated enough to do that.

And I'm not salty over someone getting over $1 million for this laptop, I'm salty that people "believe it's art".

I love this bit.
CentOS needs to go through the source code and find out all the places where debranding is needed. No you can't just "sed s'/Red Hat/CentOS/' -

Antergos Linux shuts down
When I wanted to try Arch Linux, I always ended up using Manjaro instead of Antergos.

Probably good. It was nice, I've used it, but the community has to reduce the splintering if it is going to compete effectively.

Sodium used both for testing. But yes, Manjaro was the more popular. And honestly, the whole Arch system seems like a big cluster.
