    Really quite simple since NVM is so simple itself. Just used the standard curl + bash command to run the NVM install of the version of my choice (handling updates will have to come in a later version.) I use the install directory relocation option and that puts NVM into /usr/local/nvm rather than into the user's own folder. Then just source the newly installed nvm.sh file and run the NVM Node.js install command as usual. Voila.

    More or less.
    Specifically, you need a SIP trunk to make outbound calls.
    You need a SIP trunk with a DID to receive inbound calls and make outbound calls.

    To expand on this. At home I have a SIP trunk from VoIP.ms with no DID. I have this connected to an OBi100 that is connected to a regular cordless phone. This phone is used by my wife to call Japan. I have no need for inbound calling on this trunk, so I do not pay for a DID.

    How did I not find this the whole time I've been using it haha. I hope there is a group policy to change this.

    If this is CentOS you need to either turn off SELinux (probably best here) or reset the permissions again.

    The preview has always had the option for local network or Internet. Oh that the sending part can't be selected between the two. We're still going to keep using WSUS though.

    Not sure - I looked it up in our system and it looked ok. I'll have to get someone here to look at it.

    Also, remember it is XenServer and not Xen server, those mean two different things. I'm assuming you mean Citrix XenServer here?

    i5s are really good for gaming too. The non-HT high clock speeds often do best.

    well if you want yours to be under warranty since it requires a complete tear downm you'll need to get an authorized warrenty place to do it, and they make you go with whatever OEM the brand allows.

    Personally I usually get g.skill or mushkin

    Migrated the VMs off of this box so that I could work on it without affecting anyone else. Came in yesterday to work on it. Powered it down and installed the NIC daughter board without removing power to the system. Miraculously, it's now working as expected. 😕 👍

    As part of patient satisfaction I think we should have one. If we put it on it's own internet pipe the cost would be less than $100 a month, but we are moving soon to a new 100/20 pipe from a 10/10 pipe... so we'll have plenty of bandwidth, and with the limitations that creative mentions kinda makes it a non issue.

    we have 100/100mb pipes. But if you give a mouse a cookie... that bandwidth can be used up in no time if you let it be.

    As an one man shop I decided to use my cell as our business phone when I opened shop in 2003. The number is on all of our business info as well as online.

    Port your cell number to Google Voice or RingTo. Problem solved.

    @Dashrender you have to have Dynamic Disks to do this in Windows using MS tools.

    Sure, but you don't when using third party tools. Again, I haven't done it in 4+ years, so I don't know what Acronis can currently do.

    @thecreativeone91 Ditto, and we never replace monitors either. They seem to fail reliably at the 5yr mark in a hot dusty environment so we cycle all the oldest / crap ones through the gym & front desk locations.
