Don't you just hate when you wind up in a store with people who are in a socioeconomic class that is pretty obviously about two levels lower than your own?

i have an old risc pc to fool around with for sentimental reasons which is how i know risc os open exists, but i'm still not clear why it exists. i know it has got new life on the raspberry pi but there are better OSes now, i don't know why you'd bother trying to upgrade such an old one. they were neat in their day but their day was a long time ago.

its the same reason you can drop four-five figgies on a sweet modernhorrible undead parody of the amiga: stupid people, obsession with a long gone era of computing, and if you poke them hard enough they still believe amiga/riscos will rise again

notice how the riscos compiler has to be closed source owned by some outfit called rool? ayup, there be fools who claim (dubiously) to own the rights and actually think they're sitting on something potentially great, so no open source allowed for the portions of the system they "control"

It just hit me. Technology is at the point where I can fix something that's been bugging me for 20 years.

I am going to make the "print screen" button print a screenshot of your screen directly to the office printer. Like what the key's original function was, but the complications of a graphical interface made it obsolete.

This is it... the killer application that will finally bring business users to open source and crush the microsoft monopoly! 2015 will be Linux's time to shine!

i told him he needed configuration management, which is not the same thing

installing one rpm to get a local puppet/chef is a sane and necessary measure for any linux deployment, no matter how small

setting up a puppet or chef server for one vm would be really dumb and no one would recommend that

he's one of those ansible devops fucksticks so he thinks installing even a single piece of software on the target is "enterprise infrastructure"

it's somehow better to limit everything to python 2.4 and upload all the poo poo you need over ssh instead

ansible is still really bad

just now that red hat owns it people will want to ask me questions about it. i have to care about ansible, which does not mean i have to like, recommend, or sell ansible.

it is a $10 vps and bsd's answer was good, the only problem was that learning how to use chef/puppet/ansible or whatever is orders of magnitude more complicated than the configuration i did in the first place. next time i'll probably just run `script what-i-did-to-setup-server.txt` and edit all files using ed or create a git repo in the root and commit files before/after i edit them.

it looks a lot harder than it actually is

maintaining chef/puppet on a local machine is as simple as what you described: you stick poo poo in a git repo and run "script-to-setup-server.sh"

ansiible takes about 2 minutes to learn which is why it's great for people who need some config management but aren't ready for puppet/chef

we use puppet here and if not used properly it's a loving nightmare to maintain. loving no idea what's going on in any of these puppet modules.
