Oh yes, I was using a 3.5" floppy disk drive with a USB connector in 2007 to kick off imaging on desktop machines as no one could get the ghost boot server working.

This used to be IT in the early 2000s

Beige as far as the eye could see (in a data centre)

What’s crazy to me is I don’t even know who’s in charge of England or any other country for that matter.

England is part of the UK and with no devolved government, so the Prime Minister of the UK is in charge. Currently Sir Kier Starmer.

Sorry, couldn’t resist.

Count again. 3 ways to get it. Including the way you’ve linked. My first one was correct.

I don’t get it. If this is in reference to US Politics (it almost always is), the right is red.

If it’s in reference to 20th century communists, fair play.

If it’s in reference to British soldiers of the 18th and 19th centuries, again fair play.

Ambiguity is the nemesis of fun.

Worse how? Jellyfin was forked from Emby, and since then has continued to improve in my eyes.

I think they moved from GPL3 to Apache 2 in 2017 and then only added that one line about restricting confluence in August.

Didn’t something similar just happen with RustDesk? ChatGPT response from author in an hours old account.

Wait a sec, I was told American’s don’t use the metric system…

Similar here. I used to have 2 screens that if they turned off for powersaving only 1 of them would wake up. So I had a script on the desktop to do a reset and move them correctly.

#!/bin/bash
xrandr --output HDMI2 --off
xrandr --output HDMI2 --auto --same-as HDMI1
xrandr --output HDMI1 --right-of HDMI2
exit

I mean, this happened once: https://www.iaea.org/newscenter/news/meet-oklo-the-earths-two-billion-year-old-only-known-natural-nuclear-reactor

Wasn’t there some controversy about this that it wasn’t entirely open-source?

I had to upgrade some OL6 VMs to OL7 VMs running Oracle DBs and Apps (on OVMM no less). There was no appetite for buying additional storage, or restoring the environments with RMAN. Luckily, everything had been installed under /u01 which was on its own virtual disk.

So I built a new VM as OL7 (same hostname, etc.), installed the pre-req RPMs for Oracle DB, disconnected the virtual disk from the OL6 and attached it to the new OL7, synced users and home dirs - and it only bloody worked.

I don’t want to be a pain, but it’s not “basically Mint running on an M1 iMac.” it’s Asahi/Fedora running Cinnamon. Also, you’ve connected an external monitor for an M1 iMac? Do you mean it’s an M1 Macbook instead?

I’m out of the loop. What’s going on?

I mean, I get it, but that’s also not a thing of git, right? Just because GitHub does something doesn’t mean every other hosting provider needs to. If your code review process is to comment upon specific commits, maybe it’s the code review process that’s wrong?

Feel you there. 4 hours here. All of them cloud instances whereby getting acces to the actual console isn’t as easy as it should be, and trying to hit F8 to get the menu to get into safe mode can take a very long time.

That’s…Awesome! Thank you!
