What is considered an American breakfast in the Philipp
Bacon and Egg with fried rice..
That is not at all an American breakfast. Bacon, eggs, toast and hashbrowns would be an American breakfast. Sausage instead of bacon is fine. Canadian is the same but with backbacon instead for the meat. Once in a while more than one meat but rarely.

I'm like that... I want to help folks ge ttheir IT problems fixed... I really, really do. But I can't stand it when I'm working with a client and they take days or weeks to get back to me on something. Argh!
Just lets you move on to another client that is ready to work with you!
I've been keeping an eye on CEPH for a while. It really looks interesting.

I've been referring to these types of whiners as "Ask-Holes" now. There has been an increase in these over the past few months.
I love that term.
According to the BBC, Microsoft Plans to Merge Windows from three separate operating systems down to one. This seems like a sensible move. Make everything lighter and just customize on top, much more like Linux does, in many ways.
Definitely never let anyone use their system as the administrator. Just bad practice.
It's the end of Ramadan and we had crazy awesome baklava in the office today.

Oh that is true. But you can at least execute PS as if you were sitting at the console.

I have 2 identical physical hosts that my company is allowing me to set up as a proof of concept for Starwind. As we are a Hyper-V shop, I am looking for a good startup guide for this; it appears this is where I would begin: https://www.starwindsoftware.com/starwind-virtual-san-hyper-converged-2-nodes-scenario-2-nodes-with-hyper-v-cluster ??
Are you going to do a full write up on the experience on ML?
Getting into phones sounds cool but that market is effectively buttoned up at this point. Even MS can't make inroads.

Indeed. He needs to admit that he is in way over his head and just ask for guidance.
And he runs a consultancy too!!
This is becoming far too common. Too often I'm seeing this scenario pop up on various IT boards:
"Hi, I run an IT consultancy and we just won a big contract that includes us looking after something called a "computer" but we don't have much experience with that, can you lot provide free tech support for us so we can make oodles of cash from the dumb customer?"
This makes my head hurt.

Thank you for all the questions, we've had a great time (and we hope you did as well!). Also, I will abuse the situation to advertise @ABykovskyi and his webinar about the Linux VSA that will be happening tomorrow: https://www.starwindsoftware.com/dedicated-live-demo-session
Abuse all you want!
That's what she..... you know the rest.
