I thought this was America!

What a disingenuous cunt.

Fedora KDE is what I’ve settled on for the last couple years. I’ve used Linux a very long time, this setup has been completely painless since I installed, and always very up to date.

Well, that site is useless.

I used the client to try it out, it works (which actually surprised me) but I don’t really need it for the nuke and pave restores I usually do. I just restore dotfiles and hook the shares back up.

Not a pro currently, but I was a sysadmin for 20 years, and a VCP for about 10 of those. I’ve been as impressed with how well PBS works as anything I ever used in those days, even Veeam. I couldn’t say if it scales to the size of guest pools I worked with then, probably not.

Not sure where you’re getting the idea that it isn’t snapshotting the VM

I’ve restored complete docker stacks from backup and they are point in time consistent.

Also, you can totally back up hosts using PBS, there’s a client you install that lets it back up any linux host. It won’t be point in time because the client isn’t able to run snapshots like you can with a VM. Works fine, I’ve restored my desktop with it and it’s been in use for months since.

Smith is doing this because she doesn’t want to be subject to whatever the RCMP are going to dig up over the healthcare scandal that she’s trying to suppress. If Alberta isn’t part of Canada, the RCMP have no standing.

She’s Trump in a skirt.

Order of installation:

1. Fdroid

2. Aurora

3. Playstore… and if I get to this point, probably about 80% of the time I just don’t bother. If it needs Google Play Services, 100% no-install.

Backed down on everything China demanded.

Art of the deal.

I think you have to be a much stronger candidate than Harris was to be either of those things, let alone both. Obama was a very strong personality and he only had one strike against him. And he wasn’t running against a social media shitstorm because that whole strategy was still very nascent.

We already saw what happened to Bernie in the 2016 DNC nomination race; he wasn’t going to get that close again, they had to pull out all the bullshit DNC fuckery to get Hillary in there.

I said this at the time, why field a chancy candidate in a country of racists and misogynists unless you wanted to lose?

Pretty rich that these outlets condemn governments for ‘having “issued barely a word of condemnation” of their ally’s criminality’ when they should have been asking this question a year and a half ago instead of engaging in the complicity. That’s the fucking job of a free press, which they shirked.

Governments aren’t going to do the right thing without pressure, but despite everyone in the public (with a spine) yelling about genocide, they never put any pressure on.

I have a 4000 that still chooches great. I just have to be careful replacing toner because there’s a broken arm that has to seat in the right spot to print properly.

It will be the last HP I buy, because I’ll be fucked if I buy anything that HP produces today.

Nearly every other country negotiates drug prices as a bloc, the companies have no power in universal healthcare models. Which is why insulin is dozens of times cheaper anywhere but the US.

Tank pharma companies stock, alert insider trading partners to buy, rescind EO.

Taking bets now.

Nailed it.

Teach me this skill.

I remember the days of installing with an NE2000 card, downloading drivers for 3com and compiling, then swapping cards out. I must have done that a couple hundred times to build ipchains firewalls with old customer-supplied hardware.

FreeCAD is a steep learning curve from pretty much any other CAD I’ve used. It’s usable but there will need to be a paradigm shift to figure out it’s philosphy from 360.
