    "Amazon Echo" has some competition. This open-source smart speaker called "Mark II" is privacy-minded. Unlike the "Echo" it forgets your queries to protect your privacy and also saves you from advertising bombardment.

    Does your production environment rely on Linux, but you're stuck with a Windows 10 workstation? Do you have a few Linux programs that you wish you could make work on Windows 10? With the Windows 10 Anniversary update (released August 2nd 2016), not only did Microsoft add a bash shell, they included a compatibility layer for Linux applications. 

    Howtogeek walks through these features:
