Why do I hear a 56k dial up sound in my head?

Wow. Why is loaded so strangely on my phone? It's in mobile view but tiny in the middle of the screen.
How does anyone think these are acceptable?

The "IT Director" at a small cable company I worked for in Florida told me he was trying to "move away" from virtualization. He was complaining because they were "getting slow."
I bet he failed to show any ROI on that move!
Ha he's a disaster. This was the only business in the world with guaranteed income and they still screwed it up. They had a contract with about 6 small HOA's in the area. They were the only cable company allowed to provide cable, internet, and phone (unless it was something like dish). They bragged about their FTTH setup, except they had horribly antiquated equipment that would break if you looked at it sideways.
They were upgrading their Minerva on demand system. Instead of migrating all of the data, they (he) just wiped it clean and installed the new system. So at 2:00 in the afternoon the VOD system went down, all of the movies were gone, and if you were in the middle of a movie too bad. So now the VOD content has to be downloaded again from their providers, BUT all of the old content that won't be released again was gone. So all of the Game of Thrones episodes that were released and weren't being released again were gone.....
They also literally ran their company off of an Access "database" that was designed by some lady who must have thought Access was some fancy spreadsheet application. The database only met the first normal form and that's because it's pretty much impossible to not meet it with a relational database. All of the notes for each address (they kept all of the information on houses as well since they did the installs and had some strange way of doing it) were kept in one memo field on each record. They printed out the actual form in access as work orders and kept paper copies. So when that giant memo clob was corrupted (which happened a good bit for many records) the only data we had was a printed snapshot of that memo field.

Ya you can have a full desktop gui on the workstation and have KVM running. Then just use VirtManager to access the console for each virtual machine.

Does that really matter on a workstation? And if this is on a server, do you need a gui console on the server?
Just workstation. What's the advantage to a type 2 if you can use a type 1?
Dedicated resources to the OS and the ability to completely disable the VMs.
Good point.

@scottalanmiller What do you think of using KVM as a replacement for VirtualBox? Do you gain anything by using VirtualBox on a Linux desktop other than it's possibly easier to configure? I would assume you get better performance from using KVM?
VirtualBox is a type 2 hypervisor so you would "never" use it for server virtualization. It's for running things with consoles on a desktop or laptop. KVM is type 1 virtualization and the two would never come up in the same scenarios.
The reason I ask is because you can run say an Ubuntu desktop and install KVM. Then it's possible to run virtual machines and use the VirtManager console. You would have the performance of a type 1 and still have it on the same machine.

Unusually early for me to be posting as it is ~4:30 am here... but I'm awake after sleeping most of the day yesterday, lol. Dang them docs gave me some good drugs... My head only feels like they dook a Black & Decker to it as opposed to a Smith & Wesson. (The pain is actually pretty much completely gone at the moment, so I'm not sure if the pain killers are still working or if it will be pretty much gone today).
The cochlear implant is in, so this makes me happy. Will still be another 2 to 6 weeks before they turn it on and configure my speech processors (the over the ear bits that looks like a hearing aid).
In the mean time, I get to be a lazy bum and get waited on hand and foot by my wife, lol.
That's awesome. Congrats!
Surprisingly no one has found this review helpful
I haven't looked online at all for this, but is it possible to restrict by domain? So if you're on a dynamic address you can still access if you have a dyndns setup for your house or wherever you are.
(I guess if it's a VPS or something you could just access the console and allow your IP).

SLS is comming!! *
*yeah, yeah, been said before, but the $8k box that just launched is the tip of the iceberg. Keep that in mind when looking for an extruder (aka, don't blow a lot of cash on one right now)
Have you seen the carbon 3d?
@Sparkum said:
That one actually seems pretty sweet.
Not terribly much info on their site though.
Is it self calibrating and does it have a heated bed?
Yes both. It uses a version of mattercontrol with their logo and everything. It's not too bad.
"it now evokes children’s refrigerator magnets" I'll never be able to see anything else now.
What things would you like to see changed specifically?
I have a Robo3d R1 and it's pretty nice. $800 on amazon.
Hopefully Ubiquiti comes out with an update soon. We can't use L2TP for the billing office because there's an issue with openswan/strongswan where if you have multiple clients coming from one NATed address it won't work. Granted, that's a stupid set up because you would just set up a site-to-site but since the other end refuses to do that, we pretty much have our hands tied.
