Great job! Now it’s a good time to learn a bit of Ansible so you can keep your fleet up-to-date and configured. It would also come in handy in case you get a permit to do more conversions in the future.

Do they really nag for streaks? Damn, it’s sadder than I thought…

Well,

Broadcom released a free VMware again

should be taken as a bait to lure in unsuspecting users before later stage enshit tactics happen. Synology seems to be at some other point in their enshit process, but enshit nevertheless.

I have a love/hate relationship with Nethack’s Sokoban levels.

A long lost host (a machine that’s been offline or in a closed off network etc.) can find its master (puppetserver) when it sees the daylight again with the regularily polling puppet agent service. This is not as straightforward with ansible’s push model.

Stealing this one!

No, no and yes.

Type-O-Negative had its most popular moments in the 90’s. I think the placement would be quite horny and fairly sad. (If it were Carnivore and the 80’s, the scale would implode because it doesn’t accommodate very angry but really horny.)

This is why I enjoy it here.

You can’t eat meat without animal murder. It’s really that simple. Dragging your fixations on religion into it is just noise and some feeble deliberate attempt to derail the issue and somehow “prove” that you had a point.

Indeed. Can you point any inconsistencies in that sentiment, or prove it false? If not, what’s the problem here?

Maybe it’s stretching the word meaning a bit but I’d definitely be contributing to animal murdering by eating meat. The same applies if I buy new leather shoes. Driving a petrol car, otoh, the connection to animal killing is not as straightforward, but it’s harmful for the environment and hence harming wild animals as well.

So yes, it’s not polite, but acceptable.

It’s funny considering how eating meat and using animal products is normalized in society, that when a vegan states a differing opinion (that also happens to be a fact) it’s automatically them imposing their beliefs on people. I guess it’s a symptom of the omnivore’s cognitive dissonance activating for a moment.

My theory, which is mine and belongs to me, is as follows: cough He forgets, keeps on trying and then posts about it again cooooouuuuugggghh

As long as you remember that without tahini, garlic, olive oil, salt and some lemon juice all you’re getting is pureed chickpeas.

Maybe we don’t, but she’s got a huge fanbase and they probably do.

Just ignore that crap and put some real shit into your headphones. Like The Cramps - Songs The Lord Taught Us.

Play it loaded.

Me too, on Linux, but this was about Windows.

Or just use Hyper-V since it’s natively available and one should refrain from touching Oracle with a ten-foot pole. I know it’s just a means to an end but better to avoid bad vendors if at all possible.

Needing to use command line for some things that should be a right click

Right click where? All major DE’s/WM’s implement stuff in their own way. The problem here is we don’t (and won’t) have a unified GUI that everyone uses, unlike the other two main OS’s. (Note: I don’t see this as a problem, more as a result of the FLOSS ecosystem being such a rich soil to build stuff on.)

I think Neal Stephenson’s In the Beginning was the Command Line has some valid points even today.
