We just use their phones.

Much like oxygen, our kids would die without constant touching of their phones, so we are assured they will always have them.

Seriously wtf.

It's a non-serious OS for non-serious users. To be expected.

Surely YOU'RE not serious.

So you think Soda Crush Saga and ads all over the place are things you'd call "business ready"?

Wrong Answer.

Right Answer:
Of course I am serious. And don't call me Shirley.

How else do you expect a little startup like Microsoft to make money?

Maybe it saw the AD server up, but it was just in a window it wasn't accepting requests or something.

It definitely said "no logon server" but then the next time, worked fine.

@obsolesce The Win10 is and the HyperV host is not.

Why not? This does nothing but over complicate your set. You already have an AD environment. why are you not leveraging it?

Is there ever an issue when the AD server is on the Hyper-V host?

I've never had an issue ... just wondering. Mainly the other day because I was having an issue logging in until (I think) the AD server came back up on the host.

Does a Hyper-V server let you log in if something is wrong with the AD server it is hosting? (Obviously this would only be applicable in a one AD server environment. Or is both AD servers were on the same Hyper-V host.)

I'll be getting an AirBNB and will have bed space to split I am sure.

Hopefully in more than one bed.

Perhaps a quick synopsis of all the versions of "free" veeam and paid veeam would be in order from those in the know.

No. Because they are totally different products doing totally different things.

Hence why a synopsis was needed.

@black3dynamite said in Help with my first Hyper-V setup:

I use Altaro VM Backup (Free Edition) and works great. Free edition allows up to 2 VM which you are currently using anyway. If you will need more, the standard is $515 per host for up to 5 VMs.
https://www.altaro.com/vm-backup/pricing.php

Does that include file-level restore?

And what do you do to get the backups offsite?

@lj said in Help with my first Hyper-V setup:

I have 30GB on C:\ where the Hypervisor OS is installed and most of the rest on F:\ where the virtual disks for the VMs are. Is the 30 too small, too large, about right for Hyper-V OS?

If you have room, I'd set that a little larger. To allow for updates, or whatever.

On recommendations here at ML I have been using 80GB as my go-to, but that isn't set in stone.

@rojoloco said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

Having lunch and watching Tiger Woods blow it on the 1st hole of the US Open.

Oh, I read that wrong at first.

@scottalanmiller said in What did you have for lunch or dinner today?:

Heading to Rockfish for lunch. Yum!

Seafood?

I love the Pilot G2 series.

Works perfectly with my Moleskine notebook as well. In fact, it was from reviews of the Moleskine that I found the G2.

What a weird icon for suspended. Any idea what it represents?

The green leaf of low power consumption.

Breathe in the air. Enjoy nature.

@jmoore said in CentOS 7 - Why Did [Almost] Everyone Switch to Fedora?:

I hate to admit this but now that I think about it I don't think ive restarted either one in about 2 years now. I just keep them updated and they keep running.

Hope you put your flame suit on before you typed that.

Though you seem to have gotten away easy.

@brrabill I put 2 different wordpress sites on fedora. While not exactly centos it is similar. Worked fine for me for a few years now. So who knows if I'm doing it right lol

Even though it's not difficult, moving WP betweens servers always seems to spook me, LOL.

That's why no motion on that yet.

Backupbuddy is a great plugin for backups and migration of WP sites.

Yeah the last time I did it ... it was easy.

Someday I will move my WP instance to Fedora.
