I'm not 12, of course I don't miss it.

Don't you have "hip" or young friends/acquaintances ? I mostly used casper to keep track on them without giving them the pleasure of an additional view to their stories. It was also possible to save snaps
SnapPrefs is pretty great
Say what you will about it, or what goes on in it. I think "It runs SecondLife well" is a good (and constantly updating) standard of "is this computer good".
What does everyone else use to gauge a computer's quality?

Could you at least make an effort to be different. So many wasted opportunities.

Is there a Debian-based distro as small as Puppy Linux?
>>62315800
what distro would you recommend to someone new to linux that plans on having a bunch of stuff running through wine?
does the distro matter when you're trying to make stuff thats not supported to run on linux?
i like the ability to customize everything and lightness of the OS, but honestly the only thing that stops me from completely switching the software im using. And running windows on virtualbox just for that seems like too much troubles

I'm about to start experimenting with FreeNas in order to prepare for when my real NAS arrives. Does anyone with experience have any helpful advice before I dig in?
Specs:
Front Backplane : SAS-846EL1
Rear backplane : SAS-826EL1
Boot:Supermicro SSD 16GB SATA DOM
Mobo : X8DTl-3F
Cpu: 2x Intel® Xeon® Processor E5645(12M Cache, 2.40 GHz, 6-Core)
Ram : 48GB ECC
Psu : 1400W
Storage: 15TB to start. Will add 3TB every 6months until I reach 60TB.
Last bump and I'm off to fucking around
>>62315670
I had horrible permission errors when using FreeNAS SMB shares between Linux and Windows

How are you setting up your drives? You can't really add to a zpool if you're trying to keep it redundant, at least not one drive at a time.
"Ubuntu is now available on the Windows Store!!"
>Half the articles don't mention it's just a command line that is run within Windows, and the ones that do, still try to lure you with a clickbait title and first paragraph.
I'm not going to lie and pretend I didn't try to use it with x server but are you really surprised its just a terminal?
>>62315642
I assume X doesn't work?

Hello /g,
I found several software to read/extract product key from bootable/unbootable computer and so for windows 95 to windows 8 (at least). but for want i understand:
- windows 9X need a media with the image and all key works. ex: with a windows 98SE cd all installation key for windows 98SE keys will work.
- windows XP have his installation cd "associated" with one key ex: if i have one windows xp cd and 2 windows XP installation key only one will work (the right one).
- windows 7, 8 - 8.1, 10 as microsoft "give" ISO for them, i imagine that any product key work with his right OS version as for windows 9X.
so please correct this if i'm wrong.
now it's time to talk about the OEM version.
on one hand the key is associated with the material, so attached to it that in some case changing a part will "corrupt" windows. in the other hand there are some commands to unregistred/unactived windows.
plus all different version of OEM: OEM:DM, OEM:COA, ...
So my question is how to, if possible, make/build a windows installation media with a working key from any kind of computer/lonely HDD ?
PS:
i begin with:
- windows 95 / 98 / Me any kind of media is good with right key (windows 98SE key don't work with windows 98 media etc)
media can't be build from installed files of a HDD
product key can be read by dedicated software or directly in the registery
- windows XP media seem attached with a specific product key
media may be build from files installed files of a HDD (I386 directory (under windows directory) if it size more than 300 Mo)
product key can be read by dedicated software
