The nice thing about zypper is the various patch options and reporting. Gives you a good picture of what CVEs, rating, and if installed, needed, not needed etc. Does Apt have something similar?

On my Linux system it caches about 4 gig of stuff, the rest of RAM not used by apps is totally unused. No issues at all

I love it when this happens in posts 😁

Right?! I have a debian NAS running openmediavault, it has music streaming and samba network shares. it only has 256MB RAM and doesn’t even use all that.

And that years back they moved their servers from Canada to the US. That’s when I dropped TS and just did wireguard by hand.

Openmediavault might be an option also, if the drive thing is a problem with TrueNAS

Same, contacted support one time only in about 9 years for a refund on a game I played for 15 minutes or so and realized it was not what the short video and notes really described it as. No questions asked, total refund.

Yes. Snapshot…make your changes… Try the system…and if it is messed use the old snapshot.

If you try tumbleweed the snapshots are also integrated to the grub menu so you can boot to any snapshot, and if you like the one you booted to you issue sudo snapper rollback and that makes your current snapshot the default.

It also has auto snapshots anytime you use the GUI yast tools, or other CLI tools like zypper, so you don’t have to manually created snapshots. Also has cleanup schedule to remove old snaphots either by date or number of snapshots

I keep thinking of that manager that sent in a perfect resume for the job he posted, because HR denied all applicants, and it proved that HR was using some bogus AI or algorithmic filter to auto deny resumes.

But it doesn’t have to be AI. A former colleague of mine (who had both on the factory floor experience , all the way up the ladder over decades, and an MBA) was looking for a high level job and took 6 months of bogus interviews where HR keeps having you come back only to deny it at the end. For same role some said Overqualified and some HR said not enough experience. Lol pick one.

This is a feature in Windows

Xbox with online needed is just the same as DRM; Since you can’t play unless you have a connection to their server.

I actually forget what it worked like. I installed it when I had my Essentials PH1 phone, with the 360 camera add on module. But the battery died on that too many years ago now

There is also this plugin for Eye of GNOME image viewer https://github.com/Aerilius/eog_panorama

Since ZFS isn’t listed here, use BTRFS with snapshotting. Wrecking your install is a thing of the past. And if you go with something like Tumbleweed it auto snapshots every time you enter into an admin task.

Well if Zorin gets their product out ever, it is Zorin Grid. Until then I see opensuse has AD support https://doc.opensuse.org/documentation/leap/security/html/book-security/cha-security-ad.html

As for clients their is Leap/tunbleweed autoyast to capture an install setup and replicate to new installs. Or if you choose MicroOS it’s a config file you use at first boot to set user, apps, settings etc

But I’m hoping Grid will become an all in one management system Zorin promises

Such a well thought comment. I’d also add, just trying to build women centric won’t give as much rise in female gamers as would having Dad or Mom introduce kids into gaming.

As a male gamer I had my interests, but once the kids were old enough to hold a controller we’d get multiplayer family friendly titles. Now my daughters play online together in different provinces, and have built their own gaming PC

I’m running an early version of that on a 16 year old ARM board NAS, the NAS has 256MB of RAM and OpenMediaVault runs great on it.

No. Pedophilia is nothing to do with homosexuality. Look at all the cis-gender pedos. If you are thinking the catholic church, that’s just opportunistic pedos.

Manpower? They could use the ICE idiots as manpower

Bloat is relative, I guess.
