Haven't tried it personally, Semaphore Open source Ansible UI.

That's the one I've tried but it doesn't seem to do much at all

By the way, is there some frontend available?Found something on SF, but that's just a better text editor. I don't mind hacking through textfiles, but I plan to give some of the administrative stuff to a colleague who is still new to the job.

Tower is just too expensive for us poor EDU guys.

Here is the html5 tag.

<video controls>
   <source src="yourvideo.mp4" type="video/mp4">
</video>

Great, thanks, will try that tomorrow.

Decoding is on the client, I guess? So no codec, no playback?

@scottalanmiller said in Installing Ansible 2 on CentOS 7:

Been a while since we talked about Ansible. How many people have been trying it out and/or using it?

I've just started playing with it. Plan is to control lots of Raspberry's, Banana Pi's, Beagle's and other SBC's.

Great

I wish that we could still get BeOS running

Anyone have any suggestions for cool OSes to be testing out? Desktop, server or otherwise?

Have you never heard about the Geneva Convention?

Sounds like someone needs a tin foil cowboy hat... and a different career (user name is blahblah1969 with 1 whole year in IT...)

Should reply install Linux Mint.

Maybe it's smarter to fill his NICs plug with hot glue?

But Big Brother Microsoft will still be spying on you somehow....

Yeah sure, data modulated and outputted via speakers, so skip hot glueing and use some 2 component epoxid. Apply that gently to all PCIe-, USB-, Audio-,(...)-slots. A more permanent solution.

He should probably apply the same epoxy to the various holes in his head too... don't want them sneaking a peek at your inner thoughts!

Hehe. Now, I think that it should be OK to change jobs later on in your career. But especially IT is all about experience and analytical thinking (hot glue -> upgrade to epoxy), IMHO.

Ha, now that's a way to harden a system, don't you think? Should write a how-to.

Yes, I know, there's also [WINDOWS]+[L], but I can't get my fingers to do that.

Question is... Have you worked with BSD yet? Great OS. Gentoo is something I love when it comes to Linux, there's always something to learn.

@scottalanmiller said in I am an OS Junkie:

I've thought about Haiku. I've never installed it, though.

Neither did I. Same for ReactOS, seems to be great, but never tried it.

I'm not much into website "development", but I need to create a small ASP.NET HTML5 site which allows some users to watch videos using up to date Windows Phone 10 and Android 5+ devices using IE and Chrome. It's kind of a small demonstration shop in a much larger context.

Content would be some H.264 videos which I wouldn't like to convert (some Full HD videos), if possible. Information on Google seems to be outdated, misleading, incorrect, written by confused authors and what not.

So does anyone know how to do that quick and dirty? Is there finally some HTML5 tag for this? The project isn't about HTML5 or streaming, video streaming is just meant to be an eyecatcher.

just got home, been holiday shopping for clothes/money/flip flops and got a haircut!

Congratulations

Just hard stopped a VM with software from a project partner. Written in Java, all kinds of fancy frameworks involved and to what result? 100% CPU load, 100% RAM usage, so really bad system load, swapping to dead, loads of processes spawning, unresponsive shell, ...

Said that before, I am myself way more a developer than an admin... and I hate that: People are using all sorts of frameworks and APIs without thinking about consequences or side effects. I'm sure they will have a very hard time to debug that. But at least it's fancy and written in Java...

Great, thanks for sharing!

@scottalanmiller I should post the 2-node setup I just configured with 15TB of storage. I bet my 16k price was half of that purchase price and will out perform that setup.

Could you post some details in a dedicated thread? I'm looking for something very similar (2 nodes, mirrored storage like StarWind Virtual San etc).

For two nodes you use DRBD, which is baked into XenServer!

Would love to use XS - but it's Hyper-V for this one
