        Why do they need a computer now? There isn't a form they can fill out and have some keyboard monkey enter the changes?

        Keyboard monkeys cost more then chromebooks.

        This is HR's shindig. We're just following orders. They want the people to enter their own information. Especially for potentially 400 people.

        Probably best. Even if they don't know how to use computers, it is them, not someone who doesn't know, verifying that it was typed in correctly.

          Just finished up Liesl's birthday party.

          Her big present.. a punching bag and boxing gloves!

          Awesome - I started that 17 weeks ago - doing me some good.

                      I might do that for testing as Windows reports nothing wrong till the machines starts smoking.

                        Even then Windows might think you've just over clocked

                          Resizing partitions on my Hyper-V lab server via windows admin center. Good stuff.

                              The disk utility that comes with Fedora Workstation has a decent smart data & self-tests.

                                SMART data will be the same. The OS doesn't interpret anything. It just reports.

                                  Windows doesn't report it as readily during install.

                                  Fedora however, says that the disk is toast during install and recommends not installing on that disk.

                                      Correct, it's an existing install that's been running for 1-2 years already.

                                        Trying a forced 1809 install as the existing system can't patch.

                                          Windows 10 1809 update is so slow. I could have installed four Linux boxes sequentially during this time.
