@JaredBusch I figured, be safe, watch out for the cops.
I never see a radar detector in any of your pictures....

Between experience and driving this route so many times and using Waze as my GPS, that pretty much handle the need for a detector

Just thinking on how the documentation here at Mangolassi.it is better than XenServer's official documentation, and heading to lunch.
There is Xen here at my new job. It looks simple. I havent spent much time in it and already feel comfortable.
What are they using to manage it?
XenCenter
Get XenOrchestra. Free and So much better.
They say this and dont like it, they want all the features. https://xen-orchestra.com/#!/pricing
That's XOA pricing, the appliance, we are talking about XO. All the features of the appliance, 100% free.
I didnt tell them to pull up the site. They did while I was standing there telling them it was free.
I believe they just finished a SAM audit and had to buy a crap load of stuff. They are now MSDN and Partner licensed.
Since I am new to Xen I am clueless on the difference.It's not a Xen thing, it's just a standard open source thing. XO is software, it is licensed in such a way that they never need to look at the pricing. That's the miracle of open source licensing, it's standard industry knowledge and stops them from ever needing to do what they did. If they read the site carefully, they would notice a free download that is unrelated to what they looked at (yes it says for personal use but never says not for commercial use and the license is for commercial so they are obviously clear and the owner states this as well) and that what they were looking at what an appliance based on XO, not XO itself. So they weren't even looking at the pricing for what we were suggesting.
This is a standard problem though - RHEL has this same issue. Well a bit different because I don't think you can download the software from their site without a purchased license - but, if you get the software you can install and use it completely free, just with no support, of course.
These Sites clearly steer you in the direction of a paid product - and of course, why wouldn't they? They want to be paid. It's not obvious that there is a free solution that does what you need, of course with no vendor support.
I'm guessing you're going to say, well that's your own fault for not reading carefully enough, digging into the EULA, etc to find what you need. Yeah most don't.
You can download RHEL for free without a license or support. It's called CentOS.
That's not the same thing. And even if it is, other than branding - that message isn't clear, at least to me. - I temper this with the fact that I haven't looked at RHEL in probably 10+ years. and other than hearing about it here, I have no exposure to it at all, or CentOS.
See this is one of those things that when you're on the inside it seems so obvious, but when you're not, you're so completely clueless as to not even consider it.
I guess... but that really comes down to education on the user end and not the vendor. All the information to cover this exists, and is easy to find, so simply thinking the RHEL is a commercial company with only closed source products is a failure on your end. Since I started in IT, and that wasn't that long ago really, it was well understood that RHEL was an open source company that sold support.

Currently trying to plan out an uninstall / install script....
Since I don't do much (any) coding, not sure where how to begin. I've done a few batch files,.. maybe I"ll just stick with that.

Hacked the charger base for my Baofeng UV-5r. Previously it only supported a 10v DC plug (wall adapter).
It now has a USB up converter so I can do either,.. 10v from an AC to DC adapter, from any USB power source...

Weekend, finally. Has been a very long week. Or more like a couple of long weeks.
Just noticed that my heavily customized Pi image won't boot on a Pi 3. Could be a great opportunity to create a new one based on Ubuntu Mate.

Or, you could just say "screw it" and go find something fun to do for the weekend!
