But I would rather have 1990 Honda Accord than a new car. But I would take Wayland over X ahah

The FIA is French…

Works fine. I use it on my XPS 13 daily with Fedora 41

Buy a home.

Eh, xcp-ng runs open vSwitch

I understand you. Very annoying these days.

For dynamics you have to ask MS for access to the sql back end. Then its granted for several hours as read only. That’s why you have to use synapse link to a data lake etc.

Literally the same, just bought a new washing machine. Most are now smart enabled. I don’t get it at all… Like why does a washing machine need to be on the internet at all.

You’re washing is done… Yeah I know I can no longer hear it.

Start it later, there is a delay mode.

I physically have to be in front of the washer to load it. Why would I then use an app.

We paid a premium for one without Wi-Fi

It’s almost perfect. I all miss, is the ability to stack the icons on a folder, and set the folder background transparency when expanded.

You do understand, when you have VM’s set to auto scale, they shutdown when not in use, if you’re using horizontal scaling.

But it is. They’re stopped and deallocated. They start up when demanded. And shutdown when below a threshold or a certain schedule.

No we shut them down. They get deallocated the same way as shutting down a virtual server does. They’re not containers, the scaling part just turns them on and off based on workload or schedule

Finally someone who gets it.

Is it shutting down servers… Yes. it just does it based on parameters and thresholds.

Then you get things like VDI servers and jump boxes that only need to be on between certain hours, so get shutdown outside them hours.

In pretty much any enterprise using the public cloud. Everything is auto scaling, so shutdowns when not needed. Dev environments shutdown over night… If you’re not shutting down and scaling in the public cloud, you’re doing it wrong.

We power off servers in the enterprise all the time and on schedules 😂. Its called saving money.

Well it’s usually In the firmware. As this is a laptop, the display is usually a dumb display. It depends if the manufacturer wrote the firmware into a controller or used windows drivers.

Love my XPS 13, runs fedora with no issues. Such a solid laptop. Also love my 4K screen

I am just waiting for your switch shelf to collapse. That’s some serious flex. :)
