A bit eerie in schools today. Everyone feeling horrified after last nights terrorist attack in our local city.

That's how it was when I was in high school and 9/11 happened. Our prayers and condolences.

I'm sure that has shaken the community significantly.

Posting from Korora. Trying to get a VM spun up with VMM, but it's telling me that KVM is unavailable. I suspect it's because Virtualization is turned off in my BIOS, which has a password on it, that for the life of me, I can't remember.
Oh well, this was just a test run anyway before installing on my MBP.

Welcome to the cool kids' club.

Yeah, so far, so good. The one thing that sucks is that I can't install MS Office, or Teams on it. But I can use alternatives. (well, not for MS Teams, but certainly for office.)

NextCloud + Collabora CODE is what I'm using at the moment.

Does /dev/kvm exist?

Either lacking the capability in the CPU or deactivated in the BIOS, then.

Yeah, it is definitely disabled in the BIOS. I just can't enable it at the moment.

That's both a crappy, and silly, problem to have.

Yeah, it's an old "Hand me down" laptop that I've had in the desk drawer for years. Just need to reset the PW somehow. This thing actually runs Korora quite nicely for being a super old Dell Latitude D630!

Definitely no need for the latest hardware for it to run really well.

This week's round of "I own the network, not the company, and I'm not going to hand over the details of it to anyone."

Yes but you assume the CEO knows what they are doing. I think it's perfectly ok to question a request as opposed to just blindly doing it because you were ordered.
Of course, I am also preparing to be told I am an idiot in 5...4...3...

Whoa, where did you get that impression? I assume that the CEO is the boss, nothing more.

If by question you mean "double check with the boss and voice your concerns until he makes it clear you are to follow orders?" Okay, that's how you can handle that if you have that much authority. Anything past that, and you are insubordinate. It's NOT okay to refuse to follow orders. Questioning and refusing are very different things.

Most companies don't even know how to fill out a proper job description but the expectation is they will know how to properly vet a third party company?
