It's already been shown to them how cars can be completely taken over via the internet. I think the cellular vendor in that case turn on a firewall that disabled this - for now.

That has nothing to do with a standardized OS system to run vehicles.

I was mainly referencing Johnhooks comment about not trusting car companies that much.

I agree that this project can only be a good thing - hopefully more manufacturers will join and we will all have safer, more secure systems in our future cars.

But if too many join in, then we will have a single OS and a single point of attack for would be attackers.

Is that really a concern? While there are many versions of Linux, How many servers are running the most popular versus how many cars there?

Seems like it would be a concern of the utmost importance. Creating a single attack target that is primarily maintained by consumers is what caught Windows, right?

Sure, but cars today aren't maintained at all - by anyone.

Nor do most have a single, shared OS or exposed APIs.

I'll give you they don't have a single shared OS, though exposed (sure not over the internet) APIs, it seems there are more exposed that we realize, just most require local access or something like bluetooth.

LVM clearly dictates.....

I don't have a problem with a numbers game - but when I see things like this I say - em - who cares? A billion users? so what? Now you tell me there are a billion active installs? Or that a billion people have it installed on a device they use physically, now I start to care (but only if those are important numbers to whatever I'm trying to figure out).

But the fact that there are 1 billion plus users of Ubuntu, again - who cares?

Well... plug-in downloaded source, compiled, installed and activated.
In "Setting/Plugins" I can see now the "backup-reports" and "transport-email" plugins.
I made some simple test with "Backup Jobs" and all seems ok.

Thanks guys.

Windows 10 is kernel version 10. 😉 They changed it after one of the major consumer previews were released.

Edit: I've always done my Ubuntu upgrades using dist-upgrade.

Ubuntu doesn't upgrade like that either, or didn't in the past. You still have to change the sources for dist-upgrade to move up to the next one. People on Ubuntu 14.04.3 still use dist-upgrade to upgrade their daily or weekly patches and it doesn't move them to current releases. It takes other changes, like the sed lines here, to make Ubuntu do that.

If that is the case, what is the difference between apt-get upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrade?

Edit: I just checked and the command I've been using is do-release-upgrade... not apt-get dist-upgrade...

Yes, Ubuntu has an extra command that includes the sed stuff specifically for Ubuntu. In Mint, the base is remaining the same Ubuntu now so that command can't be used. They'd have to make their own, which they need to.

dist-upgrade includes things like the kernel that upgrade does not. There is a really old thread about it around here somewhere where I had the same questions and @thanksajdotcom was explaining to me why I needed to switch me standard patching to dist-upgrade because important patches would be missed otherwise.

Have you used Cinnamon? It is seriously slick. I have never used any desktop on any environment that is a nice.

I think it is time to start sending sweaters to hell. They'll need it!

@redtigey said in Linux Bonding Modes:

@scottalanmiller Sure. Thanks

No problem. Don't want to discourage participation. And once you are an active member, linking to your own stuff is fine (but say it is yours, of course.)

Or better, post the content here AND link it.

They will be running on ESXi FREE 5.5update3

I'd start by replacing that 😉

BUT I DON'T WANT TO!!!!!!

You don't have to... but that is going to be a limiting factor in a number of ways. Especially when you are looking at management or want to expand your infrastructure.

Or performance, ease of use....

using letsencrypt right now on my home server, btw. Have a cron job set up to update the cert every month or so, with an easy tool: ACME. Simpler than the 'standard' tool from Lets Encrypt, if you ask me. Go check it out at https://github.com/hlandau/acme 😉

I had a good laugh when I spotted the ".travis Try to speed up travis" Apparently I'm slowing things down, tho I do agree that speeding me up would be a good thing 😛

And SO tiny!!

Maybe your package repo is out of date, I tried this just now on my Mint desktop and it worked fine... but the direct links that you show do not exist.

Try this then try the ppa add command again...

sudo apt-get update
