I've seen DB2 in use, we had so many machines with it holding customer information.

I was young then, and the memories have stayed with me.

The horror, the horror..

Then the company bought out another company which also had DB2 on some old Unix V knock off and some weird flat file thing on some PDP-somethings and we had to interlink the services and slowly transition everyone over.

Mass Effect... 75% off.

That looks like Heroes of the Storm and not World of Warcraft... but I could be wrong.

I certainly have no idea. I've never seen either.

There was someone looking to share an apartment.

I'm been saying that Startup Scripts and ADUC Home Folders have been dead for user. Many still insist on doing things this way though. GPP is way more flexible though and actually works better.

What do you replace home folder with?

GPP Mapped Drives.

I need to finish configuring this... Home drives aren't mapping correctly over our Site-to-site VPN. I am fairly certain this was a known issue which GPP solves.

Yep. They don't get stored locally in any way as they aren't a policy. GPP does cache.

Diamond

I believe so.

Well the setup in the article uses the graphical login interface, so no.

Darn. That'd be cool.

Doesn't take much on Ubuntu 😉

The CaseSentry application my company developed that does all the monitoring and case generation for basically everything we do here is built on Ubuntu. They use a MySQL backend. I was thinking of talking to the Dev guys and recommending they check out MariaDB to help improve performance.

MariaDB? I'd use postgres for something with monitoring

Ok, I'm kinda loopy today. You can replace MySQL with Postgres? Brain is running at half-speed at best today...

MariaDB is just MySQL forked. PostgreSQL is the big MySQL competitor. It's a different product but generally way more powerful.

I am very interested in how they do the generation. Does it Google for ideas or what?

I've been working with PHP 7, it's pretty impressive so far, I really love the type hinting / pseudo-static typing -- it's something I've wanted for PHP for over a decade. There are missing extensions which haven't been ported and most importantly, xdebug, doesn't look like it'll be ported for a while, as on github I noticed the primary contributors were complaining that it'd be "too hard" to do it. In the mean time I created a drop in replacement which works somewhat OK:

Code is under MIT/X11, because unlike Stallman, I don't believe in forcing you to let me see your code, in other words, I've showed you mine, you need not show me yours 😉

You can't make this up. New Zealand has to run a campaign to help teens handle breakups?

One of the reasons I didn't go with another Android phone after my last one broke is I don't trust google. I noticed things like it recommending me add people I've been around on google plus. Recommending contacts based on some random text etc.

If I remember correctly LibreOffice split off from OpenOffice because they wanted to focus on more features while OpenOffice wanted to work on stabilizing and feature compatibility.

I agree, OpenOffice should merge back with LibreOffice if they can.

Not quite. LO split off because of fears over the future of the management and the licensing of OO. Oracle bought them and was not treating the project well. There was real fear that the OO project was going to be shut down and the code removed from circulation. LO was formed to protect against that.

OO and LO then additionally had some different opinions on development direction but that was purely in addition to the major issues that caused them to split.

I, too, am concerned that results on my phone are not as good as the results on the computer. I often get search pages that are nothing but ads and unable to find things that, on a computer, are easy to search for. I've never been happy with mobile-only pages or mobile-altered search results.

odd, it was the link right off of the article site.

I am musically challenged. I don't think this will be a feature that I'll use but I think others might find it useful.
