@scottalanmiller my son is in the autism spectrum and has sleep apnea so I am constantly checking on him. Glad it does not happen often.
I got apnea we think around age 19. Doctors estimate that I didn't really "sleep" in any meaningful way from 1995 - 2005. Got the CPAP then and it was all I needed. Twelve years on it now, it's been great.
-
@scottalanmiller wow that is an awful long time of non sleep!

Yeah, my doctors definitely thought it was amazing. Most self aware "sleeper" they'd ever documented. No heart damage because I would fall asleep and wake up in such a rapid cycle that even though I never got a single breath while asleep, I also didn't run out of oxygen causing heart strain. I would just sleep for a few seconds without breathing, wake up without any shock, breath really deeply and go straight to sleep again. So my sleep only happened between breaths.
-
@scottalanmiller Interesting, That is a miracle!

Yeah, they said that it was pretty amazing that I was still alive. My apnea was so bad that it caused brain damage, sadly. Which has been slightly reversed, but only very slightly. My autonomic system is irreparably damaged and my breathing, even when awake, doesn't work. I literally have apnea 24x7.

Ah, yes the joys of Apnea. Mine is Mild to Moderate rating.
Forgot to put mine on at 1AM when I went to bed. Woke up at 4 to check on the migration batches and feels like I was just on bike ride. Pump pump pump, wake up you fool. -
@scottalanmiller well you are brilliant nonetheless so keep up the good work!

This guy says that Windows 2016 is shipping without a GUI. Um... I think we'd have heard about this, don't you think?

Well you can get server 2016 without a gui, but it isn't the only option.
-
@scottalanmiller yep the OP probably got Server 2016 Core or installed as Core since it is the default install type. Other than that they can convert it to GUI but it will be of no more help

He claims there is no GUI option. I don't think that they even offer such a thing (by license.)

Woke up because the break flipped and my CPAP started suffocating me. Good morning Mangoes.
Maybe you need a small UPS for your CPAP machine? But then you go back to the whole weight/size issue when traveling?

Yeah, that's not possible unfortunately.

2lbs or 8lbs, there are light ones and not very bulky. Might be worth the investment, of well, you know, your life.
They dont draw a lot of power so might be safe to put the adapters on it, or find an international one. Looks like there might be options for you.

I think he's stuck with the scenario where if you install core, you can't install the GUI later. But if you install the GUI, you can uninstall it and have a core server. That weird training I had made sure to mention this.

At least they told you something useful, lol.

His claim, though, is that there is no GUI install option at all.

@scottalanmiller There is not, see below:

"NoteUnlike some previous releases of Windows Server, you cannot convert between Server Core and Server with Desktop Experience after installation. If you install Server Core and later decide to use Server with Desktop Experience, you should do a fresh installation."
