By default on Debian, vi is replaced with vim and configured to make it unusable as any attempt to interact with text by mouse causes it to freak out. It's the worst. But the fix is easy if you know what to do.
edit /etc/vim/vimrc
And add these lines..
set mouse=
set ttymouse=
Voila, it works again!
Mostly this is taken from Mastodon's documentation but some of it is wrong. I tried their Docker configs, but couldn't find any that worked and it isn't clear if they have an official Docker image or just third party ones. They don't actually list Docker on their official site. So this is a traditional install.

We have only a tiny bit of either. Asian food we tend to miss.
@IgnaceQ said in If starting from scratch, would you suggest learning BASH or Ansible?:
Besides anisble there are other tools for remote tooling. In a linux world you need bash. this is a basic need.
On top of bash, it really depends on the environmnet you're in. I would suggest python on top of this. You can use python in ansible, chef, terraform, etc... Also on non linux environments, python is availlable (bsd, windows).
He needs Ansible because he's doing an Ansible based certification path.
@openit said in If starting from scratch, would you suggest learning BASH or Ansible?:
While I'm preparing for RedHat certification, I was thinking to learn BASH, for general use and also exam has requirement to write simple bash scripts.
But, in long run and to be more efficient, I feel deep learning of Ansible is better than BASH? If I left BASH, and go with Ansible do I lose anything? I assume Ansible covers what BASH can do?
These aren't competitive technologies. One is for working at the command line, one is for remote automation. You will always need both realistically.

Ran this, sudo apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
Not sure why they weren't installed or what happened but I have 4 monitors now.
I'm surprised the NVIDIA drivers even installed. They'll normally yell at you if you don't have the header files installed.
Glad to know you fixed the issue!
I'm guessing that they were out of date.

Do you do "apt dist-upgrade" for your daily updates? The headers aren't always installed by default. But maybe they were but not updated?
Having more AC units installed this morning.
I ASSUME that their answer is that no one should be emailing attachments like that and they should be sending links to the hosted files instead?
I can't remember the last time that we had to email someone an attachment of an office document, just saying that sounds like a legacy process. Who needs to do that in the modern world?
So summary: MS is disabling the use of MS365 for communications with external customers. It's an internal use only system now?

glad to be sitting inside. a cold front as come through and it's freezing. nothing like you northern guys get, nowhere near, but for down here, it's freezing.
34C / 93F today 
Plans tonight include video editing and watching classic Dr. Who with my kids.
@NETSERVER that's a bit surprising, but honestly, I guess not. With the way that IBM decided to view CentOS and RHEL, it isn't the stable, well supported system that it used to be. It used to be taken far more seriously. Now, I can't imagine a scenario where I'd deploy RHEL. And at one time, I had one of, if not the, largest RHEL fleets in the world.
