And that was with the help of a backup-recovery solution which did support Proxmox, mere 6 months before that I would had stuck with an agent P2V migration of a VM to VM - which would had involved way more moving parts (can't P2V/V2V to a hypervisor which is not even installed yet) and more pain.

Yes? Do that for the hundreds of VMs, with a minimal downtime, bonus points for a dumb C-level on your neck.

You would quickly learn what "just converting disk images" is not enough for moving between hypervisors.

Just as an example: last year I moved a company with two Proxmox servers to ESXi. It took a 3 months and another server as a staging point. A minuscule in modern times 1TB+ VM took a whole weekend to be moved. Of course it didn't work in that time.

You may not answer if you don't want to but from an idle curiosity: do you have an inner monologue in your regular life?

It's always fascinated me how 'the mirror of the soul' not only a very apt metaphor but how we see it even when it's a still shot.

OH SHI~

You can have a whole one try to guess who is this.

And if you guess it right (I doubt you can answer wrong, lol) you would know a whole bunch of different reasons - including personal qualities of that "benevolent dictator" too.

NB honestly, if anything it's "his" OS what gave a lot of opportunities to the kids in the developing countries everywhere, not just Africa alone - just by providing the means to run the apps and games on almost anything. OLPC on the other hand provided an example how a specialized device made with the best intentions was a piece of shit.

But the dead giveaway is the branches of that repo.

One giant megacorp with a benevolent dictator? Well, maybe you want that - but I do not. And we have a couple of examples of how it goes.

And some had a switch to select the mode of the uplink port.

It's just a holdover from the telephone networks, where you used a short cable to actually phsyically connect - patch[0] - two lines. Therefore - patch-panel and patch-cord or patch-cable.

That's the difference of a fleet admin and of a localhost.

Amusingly, this it what got Windows work in the enterprise and what Linux-based distributions never made it right.

OP clearly stated the situation was of a mutual benefit - friend got their Y now and don't need to bother with doing an exchange, OP got a few spare bucks which was a such big sum what it literally sat in the drawer for 5 (five) years.

> I’m not an expert on switching algorithms

then you surely shouldn't tell about 'various algos'

And no, no amount of software magik would help if your L1 can't handle the traffic.

Except no.

You can't even have a conversation between Conversations and Fluux because OMEMO is enabled by default in Conversations and there is just no OMEMO support in Fluux - despite it being actually modern one.

Gajim works but Pidgin doesn't even show "I sent you an OMEMO encrypted message but your client doesn’t seem to support that". Just like images, which is a first party in Telegram and even WhatsApp.

So much for 'just works'.

You are clearly out of your league. Get some 20 y/o flip Motorola, disassemble it and think, think hard.

No, 'PCIe switches' has nothing to do with the smartphones at all - so their PCB real estate do not indicate anything.

Oh, that's easy! They are cool!

NB in ~50 years cool would change it meaning and things would be no longer cool for a contemporary reader but some other word designating an awesomeness and delight.

It became 'majority Russian' 50 years before that, pay attention to the bar labeled 10. Don't use BBC as a source of anything.

And this is how it should be. Johnny Mnemonic's 320GBs became the reality in mid 90' and mundane by 2005.

It's always amusing to hear this and point out what some Ukrainians are... not equal to other Ukrainians and therefore are not allowed to have the right to decide under which flag they want to collectively pursue peace and prosperity.

Somehow it's always only one flag what is 'right' and anything other is 'not right'.

> 399 dollars

So in 3 years it would start to bring profit. Surely someone at AL ran the numbers but 3 years is a lot for a vehicle in a heavy duty cycle and they would need repairs in that time along with the battery replacements for some units.

PS: Oh, it's even $340 on the site ATM.
