They must have changed from when I bought it 7 years ago.

If you are comparing on hardware you are missing the point. It comes with support and a free number they can call if something goes wrong. I don’t live in the same country as FIL so its was 100% worth it to make him happy with his computer.

I bought a WOW PC for my 83 year old father-in-law several years back and he loved it. It is linux based and includes support.

How do you feel about bean soup?

Grandma used to say nothing breaks the ice like breaking wind so give a friendly toot as you pass.

maybe you are different. maybe you tie that lanyard to your belt loop.

If you ask me, unserious people like that deserve no response at all.

I always think of Tech Debt as the work you should do but aren’t doing, usually by management choice.

Stuff like, “we really should refactor this to make it easy to work on” and “we should really clean out the obnoxious deps that we pull in but don’t really need here” and “we really should clean up this function that appears is 6 different places in 2 different versions” and so on.

Essentially anything that would make maintenance and enhancement easier but that you aren’t given the time to do and it just piles up.

Put it on the top rack of your dishwasher and run a cycle with no soap. Then leave the keyboard upside down on a towel for 24 hours. I did that after my friend spilled a milkshake on my keyboard. Came out good as new.

When you add /24 you are exporting to the entire subnet. A single host export looks like this

/srv/nfsv4 192.168.0.10(ro,sync,secure,root_squash,subtree_check,fsid=0)

Just leave off the subnet mask.

the name comes from the Bantu word “ubuntu” which loosely translated means, “debian is too hard”

A VPN dos not protect your device. A VPN protects your network traffic because it stops someone on the local network from capturing and manipulating that network traffic. It does not stop someone on the local network from attacking your device directly.

Hi, Would you kindly indulge me and explain your posting pattern. You’ve just asked 4 question in 4 minutes after not asking any questions for 30 days. You’ve also only once commented (looks like you deleted that). When I asked you about that you didn’t respond and you deleted the thread. Then you posted a new question. Now another. Are you OK? I’m reaching out in good faith here, what’s up?
