    • RE: XCP-ng 8.0 is available

      I removed xe-guest-utilities and xe-guest-utilities-xenstore and reinstalled them from the guest-tools.iso and everything seems to work as expected.

      7.11.0-1 is the version in the iso that works, and 7.12.0-1 is the version from the updates repository that doesn't appear to work.

      My LXDE instance hasn't been updated in a while and is still running xe-guest-utilities 7.10.0-1

      Are you guys seeing any issues with your Fedora VMs and PV drivers after upgrading? All of my headless Fedora 30 VMs on my home lab either aren't reporting properly or are actually running in HVM mode.

      umm, is it just me or are the reviews and questions for this product all over the place? I've seen people post wrong reviews before, but this is way beyond anything I've seen before. Soap, phone case, dress, medicine, gauge, purse? All in the reviews. This charger must do it all.

    • RE: Using Skype For Business For Conference Calls

      @DustinB3403 said in Using Skype For Business For Conference Calls:

      So to be the devils advocate here - anything that comes pre-loaded on your OS should be classified as malware if you immediately remove it once the OS is operational.

      LibreOffice - malware I don't want it - don't install it. But every time I install nix it's there!

      I disagree, I think the problem with Microsoft is that programs that were uninstalled come back after every "feature update."

      If I upgrade from Fedora 29 to 30 and didn't have LibreOffice installed, it doesn't randomly come back and pop up all kinds of shit harassing me to use it every time I login.

      Sadly, MS started doing this hard core in Windows 10. You uninstall shit in 1507, and when you upgrade to 1607 that shit returns. Like it is impossible for MS to look at the old config before the upgrade and apply that same config post upgrade.

      OneDrive comes to mind when I read this :pouting_face:

      Release - XCP-ng 8.0

      The big release is here. After about a month of QA on the Release Candidate, XCP-ng 8.0 is now available and can be safely used in production environments.

      Looks like I get to see how the upgrade process goes.

      I've been running beta for about a month, the upgrade was as smooth as any other minor upgrade using the ISO. It's a bummer the yum updates don't work for major upgrades, but it's not that big of a hassle.

      I'm still on 7.4 and am waffling between going to 7.6 or 8. I have E5540 Xeons and I'll need to check the compatibility lists 1st.

      You probably wont find it on any compatibility lists because it's so old. I have (2) E5649 in my home lab and both 7.6 and 8.0 work/ed flawlessly.

      Surprisingly, I'm not on the list.

      Me either! and I have plenty of credit history over the past 18 years. My wife was on it, who never had a credit card until after we were married a few years ago.

      Never worked for Lockheed, I see 😉

      lol after I typed it, I'm thinking "yeah, right.. defense contractors"

      I worked there a little, never again. Total corruption and incompetence. Very evil company raping the American economy.

      Speak of the devil... I had kind of forgotten about it, but a couple months ago they were recruiting a friend for an engineering job and they flew his family out to California and put them up in a hotel for 3 days. After the interviews they gave him an offer that was like 10% less than what they originally offered. We just found out over the weekend that they contacted him trying to collect like $3000 for expenses from his in person interview... wtf.

      Yeah, really don't miss it, at all. I hated FB.

      I was on it back when you had to have a .edu email to sign up. It was soooo much better then. Now it is complete shit, I agree.

      What do you use/do instead 🙂 if anything? LinkedIn, General News sites, Forums like this
      I've been thinking of doing this.

      I've been using Instagram a little, but I'm rapidly getting sick of it. NPR app for news. ML for everything else. I haven't been a fan of LinkedIn since it's inception.

      @scottalanmiller said in Non-IT News Thread:

      Both the US and Japan are at across the board production capacity. There isn't enough employment in either country for additional manufacturing loads. Especially not military grade, skilled manufacturing. It'll be very hard for either to quickly absorb a major bit of work from Turkey.

      By 2020, one year after the Fort Worth plant hits its full 17-jet-per-month stride, there will be more than 600 F-35s, including nearly 180 sent to U.S. allies. https://www.defenseone.com/business/2016/05/f-35-production-set-quadruple-massive-factory-retools/128120/

      If these numbers are true (17 jets per month) I don't think they'll have any problems finding a supplier. The tooling is likely already owned by Lockheed, if so they'll just relocate it.

      Edit: Looks like there is another assembly plant in Italy, but their production is even lower.

      Given the price tag and problematic development track record, maybe not having to honour their purchase commitments is exactly what Turkey wanted. Seems like Turkey, not the US, won on this deal. Turkey will just buy way cheaper, proven fighters from Russia now. Whose economy got screwed by this? Russia and Turkey make money, US loses. And the F35 is partially made in Turkey, so Turkey makes a butt load on every sale, as long as they aren't the ones buying it.

      Money shifted directly from the US into the hands of Turkey and Russia, ugh.

      They said on the Radio (NPR) yesterday that all of the parts manufactured in Turkey are also being pulled. They'll be made in Japan and the US if I remember correctly.

      As much as I think smoking needs to be banned, I think that pulling the rug out from under legally addicted smokers is unfair and probably illegal and could end up undermining the law.

      This I would argue with you about, a person has a choice to start smoking, vaping using chew etc. And they aren't allowed to legally do this until 18 currently 21 in 120 days.

      This is no different than changing the drinking age from 18 to 21 however many years ago that happened.

      I believe the people that were already 18 when the drinking age changed to 21 were grandfathered in and were still allowed to buy alcohol. Maybe the same will happen with smoking to prevent what Scott talked about. The article doesn't mention it.

      IMHO, those four are one in the same and I still believe the statement is correct. Yes, One person can be used as a basis for the group. Happens all the time in business, politics and world society.

      What makes them one in the same?

      Numerous intertwined Ideologies.

      I understand. Citizenship is a difficult concept to grasp... One person from a group not being born in America makes a statement true for 3 other people because they share the same ideologies. You should loosen up your red hat a bit. It seems to be cutting off circulation to your brain.

      Being an American is a difficult concept to grasp. Being a citizen is fairly easy.

      Alright, well I think that your ideologies align with these 3 Russians that I once met, so you should to go back to where you came from... Makes perfect sense :thumbs_up:

      And you think my ideologies are?

      Forget it, man. That wasn't the point. I don't have the patience for this lol
