For the record, at 10:30 in the video you talk about the original RoIT site failing. It was never released to the public as such, we played around with the idea of it for a while but setting up a non-profit entity and all that's involved in that was way more work and money than we'd originally thought. We decided not to go forward with the project since but I don't think that really counts as failing. I'm glad someone pointed to the WBM link, I had forgotten that we'd made the domain name into a rick roll, that made me smile.
@Pete-S said in Comparing Office Suites:
Isn't stretching it extremely far to put Zoho among the major players?
Well, for us it's the most major player You can make a case for any of them not being among the majors. MS for not being easy to acquire and use. Google for not being normal. LO for not making any money.
Zoho is likely the last by market share. But it's more like the big boys than not. If you use their product, they feel like a bigger player than MS or Google from how polished and capable their product seems.
Market share matters when you are investing. But product viability and completeness matters when you are talking IT matters.
I will also chime in and say that Udemy is great. I have been very impressed with how thorough the content for the courses I have purchased has been. Definitely worth the money if you ask me.
@dyasny said in Create my own Stock,Inventory Software:
Have you tried the existing free tools like odoo or partkeepr?
Odoo seems to be asking for money when selected the Sales and Inventory or Purchase
Partkeepr cannot be installed in Windows machine as checked.unable to install this because others are not able to use Unix/Linux OS
Hyperconverged infrastructures (HCI) can become cumbersome for sysadmins to maintain. They’re locked to many user interfaces (UIs), which they gotta shuffle through to keep things in check. Well, that's finally over. StarWind Command Center is a single-pane-of-glass tool to monitor and operate clusters and nodes, VMs, storage, networking, telemetry data, backup, etc. This video explains StarWind Command Center’s substance, demonstrates its features, provides case scenarios, practical benefits and shows you that HCI management can be a game — not a bane.
Learn from this video how you can revolutionize the way you operate your HCI with as much as just a single tool.

In theory they are intended for special cases like video recording.
Yup, pretty much the same thing - intended for always-on, without too much heavy IO. Frankly, I doubt there's anything significantly different under the hood there.
I've looked at the specs before and could not really find anything.
@krisleslie said in IT Helps the Business; Does Management Agree?:
I disagree on the idea that magement shouldn't understand IT. We shouldn't expect them to have a Ph.D. in IT and all the various flavors but they should be able to comprehend what's going on at a basic level.
Problem with that line of thought is that you cannot understand IT at a basic level and make any decisions whatsoever that have value. To make decisions of value you have to understand all the implications of the technology you’re in going to be dealing with. President or CEO should not be expected to know that kind of detail that’s why they hire IT.

Excuse my ignorance. Now I was installing x2go. If I partition the hdd in raid 0 I also need to rebuild the operating system or just x2go. thank you.
To reiterate: Any time you are reconfiguring an array, you lose everything on the array.
If you want to keep the data, you must back the data up to a separate medium and restore it once you are done configuring the array.
I've used Logitech trackballs for over 20 years now. Been using the M570 both at work and at home for quite a while.
As for keyboards, I've also used various ergonomic keyboards (mostly logitech and MS) for the past 20 years. For the past 10+ years, my keyboard of choice is an Adesso PCK-208B...definitely not compatible with a tight workspace, but it works well for me. Initially bought it because, well, I'm cheap, and so was it.
Awesome thing about having a ergo keyboard plus trackball at home:
Visitor: Can I use your computer?
Me: Sure, help yourself
Visitor (looks puzzled staring at keyboard/trackball combo): Nevermind
Me (Grinning): Suit yourself
Want to blatantly promote yourself? Here is the place. Go crazy!
