You’re entitled, usually required, to add your personal lock onto this when you start working on a locked out job, that way you can be confident they’ll come looking for the last guy to lock off the job before they can get running again, it may save your fingers/arm/life or job. Usually there’s a permit involved and you should know the conditions of the permit, or have your own permit to join a job.
SuSE linux 4.2 about 1994-6 ish?
Fond memories of having to roll my own modelines to get crt monitors working.
Used the various versions until the sell out to Novell and the controversy with Microsoft.
Then a really big gap with some macs and now I’ve just started using Mint on a mini itx machine I’ve put together just for that use.
I found that all my keyboards didn’t have functional modifier keys while gaming, in wayland.
Switched back to default cinnamon, and it all works fine again.

Did you build it yet? And how did it go?
I’ve just built a fractal terra jade, with a nearly completely spare parts bin spec;
Vega56 (ex-classic Mac Pro)
i7 2600 (ex-iMac 2011)
2x4gb ddr3 ram (also ex cMP)
1tb SDD
500watt silverstone SFX-L (toight!)
Running Linux Mint 21.3
Have installed WoW via Steam compatibility mode, and playing all my steam catalogue as trials.
Borderlands 2, Pre-sequel, wolfenstein old blood, and some GOG games.
It’s actually very competent at 1080p and I’m not finding I’m having to turn much settings down to enjoy good frames.
Because he uses butter as improvised lube and quite forcefully sodomises her, which is why I thought the cable port that looks like the arsehole on a dockyard cat, with an inset of Brando, was meaning, yep - buggered hard.
I think the whole USB-C business is the worst example of an axe to grind with Apple. Who says that standard must be the only one? The EU have forced something that didn’t need to be forced. I’ve got a household full of Apple gadgets and no USB-C, so when we do update something later than iPhone 15 and it has that connector, it will be the only one, and no other charges will work with it expect any adapters I might have from C to A.
I just don’t get it that it was that important.
Example; VORON project.
3DPrinters engineered and designed by the project team, contributed to by the community, they don’t sell a product, they share all the plans, BOM and instructions how to make your own 3D printers and even offer a ‘bootstrap’ scheme called ‘print it forward’ where you can pay costs only for parts that have to be printed for the build.

Ford build nothing in the UK anymore, I could not care what their opinion is on this issue. Toyota on the other hand are being flexible, support working with whatever is current guidance whether well advised or not, and crucially: employ people in the U.K. building vehicles here.
Started because of the 70s
Three day working week to manage the rolling power cuts, miners strikes fuel crisis, then tortured by thatcher who was set to nuke the unions of the face of the planet. Blues hate working class, reds hate anyone who makes profits, and each are scared the other will do those 70s and 80s things again and again. Nevermind that Blair’s Labour was a middle right party, and nothing like the Red Ken memories of Labour past, and it seems like tories have moved out to the right while Labour have moved into their old chairs. I don’t know what SDP liberals stand for
I get this reference.
