Took me straight back to unreal tournament days (or was it quake 2?)

Thankyou!

Gosh randall is always on point, though. Either a complete psycho or a savant of the human perspective (laziness, i guess? It seems like most of his stuff is mocking the lazy process fails in science, bureaucracy or people interactions)

Thanks for that - I hadn’t thought about the rest of the domain in the name.

I was purely thinking about it from a hypothetical risk-mitigation perspective.

As you can imagine, keeping ‘the old crap around’ in case of a need to roll back would be handy in some migrations… Assuming the same IP complicates that.

However, I guess a machine can have multiple IPs so it needn’t be too much of a drama if it’s just a matter of moving the original IP when rolling back…

You are a saint with that kind of compassionate thinking - well done!

This is great, but I need more training… Please?

did you mean tist?

Its like a platitude but it’s not even well-meaning.

I’m pretty sure my next metal band name is going to be called ‘death by platitudes’ (I’m kidding, but I trust you get the idea…)

“What do you mean? That’s the clinical best practise!!” - Siemens healthcare/Philips or any other medical vendor

(and I’m not talking about air gaps!)

I’m glad we’ve still got people like you around to remind me I’m starting to ‘drift’ from my principles.

Application virtualization, folks.

Chuck your JRE in an environment with the content that needs it and be done.

Yes, im crying they’re killing off app-v…

…yyyeees, but I was also a lot cheaper and used a lot less fuel because the plastic was far lighter to carry around than glass.

How that balances out, no idea, sorry… I’m hoping it was better but may have been due to plastic subsidies or something equally evil

That’s fucking rad - I just hope they don’t get bombed by the IDF

/s - they’d never do that!?

This is great and amazing. We are our own worst enemies with the absence of rigour we apply…

Knowing Aussies, the comments on this posting would be a great read.

I think that’s the idea - I love how this is a double entendre for those that know…

Softbrick vs hardbrick?

Don’t let the details get in the way of a good story!

Noodly appendages and all that

Yeah, this is it - were addicted to distraction.

Boredom is actually a really powerful problem solving motivator (that we’re sorely lacking lately, thanks to social cancer and phones etc).

Try spending a few days only using your phone for important phone stuff, not entertainment and see

What a champion of an architect! Love the excess surface area, overhangs and ventilation shafts - brilliant work!

I’m sure lots of locations around the world would benefit, I’m curious at Te extra expense but it rather it be capital than ongoing cost any day!

That’s a good point, but really all that means is it might be of use in a few years once all the hype BS bathwater has washed away and we can see what the baby looks like

Having tortured that analogy, I should probably point out I’m a bit of a Luddite with these things. This is not a sea change I look forward to, in any way, shape or form…
