***QUESTION FOR EVERYONE ON LINUXROCKS***

If we take a day or so outage when would be the best time? Weekend? Weekday? Beginning of the week middle or end?

I want to move linuxrocks to a faster server which means coping the qcow across the internet. I thinking 4 to 6 hours for the move then its all about DNS propagation as the IP will change.

Linuxrocks.online will be rebooted in 5 Minutes.

Who would be up for a game of Quake 1 sometime? I have a server setup and I am setting up a zip file for the client for anyone who wants to play.

@miles_lowroad Total blast meeting miles and others at texas linux fest but waking up in the morning sure reminds me I am not 20 anymore lol Every bone hurts. Had a blast with Chris Fisher from Jupiter Broadcasting and many other fascinating people. Had so much fun I opened my mouth and said I would volunteer to help next year.

Ok i got linuxrocks back up seems the cost core dump screaming about a proc 1 and proc 2 failure. I powered off the server and powered it back on and the error cleared.

I will look into it when I am not on my phone and can grab my laptop after the Texas Linux Fest I am at now.

I could say I'm disappointed in the Linux Foundation, but I didn't have a high opinion of them to begin with. I think this is the same guy who delivered a talk while conspicuously running a Mac operating system. This is a guy whose advocacy is disingenuous. Why he has any high ranking position in the Linux Foundation is a total mystery to me.

Straight up he fails to declare an interest. Microsoft is one of the financial backers of the Linux Foundation. Is he going to write anything bad about a company that partly pays his salary? Absolutely not.

question.. How many Ham Radio Operators are on here? Who would be interested in a IRLP node dedicated for Linux chats and Nets?

OK DNS is re-pointed to new servers. Please let me know if anyone sees any issues. Again I don't believe there will be any as just the DNS host changed and not the address so as it propagates it should still resolve the same destination.

FYi we are messing around with the DNS to LinuxRocks.online you should not have a issue just in case here is your FYi

Is this the year for KDE desktops? I been seeing a mass migration from Gnome users to KDE users. I am not saying anything bad about Gnome as I have been a user since the beginning of Gnome but even I have been enjoying KDE of late. Now XFCE users will always be XFCE users :)

I keep getting this Ad on FB titled No Piracy it says to call and report a business using unlicensed software. I got a half of a mind to write in and tell them my buisness keeps downloading and using this software called Linux without paying for it. What do I get for reporting it? lol

Is OpenStack Dead? I believe not as a product matures it no longer the new shinny but to me that just means greater adoption as large corporations don't want the new shinny but something tried and reliable.
Love to hear your thoughts?

linuxrock is updated to v2.4.0rc4 now --admin
