I used to have issues with the different processor types, I used to downgrade to the core2duo to get things to boot.

I’ve been posting this comic on behalf of the creator on Reddit, but I hadn’t posted it here for you guys to view.

These are just links to Reddit, though?

I bought one this year. Been using it a week, hope it helps later on!

I can't remember specifically, I think it might have just been that the ghost image on the floppy was confirmed to work, and all the desktops were allowed to boot from floppy already and not necessarily via USB.

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)

Well, let's see...my work laptop experience (so far).

• Lenovo: Worked there for 14 years
• HP: Worked there for 6 months
• Apple: Worked there for 6 months
• HP: Worked there for 2.5 years
• Apple: Worked there for a year
• Dell: Worked there for 2.5 years--

So, I'm being naive here, but why don't people sue when they know this is the case? Like, it's a bit of a stereotype that American's are fairly litigious, but if you know that you're being swindled, can't you take them to court?

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?
