            Pretty simple to convert from CentOS Linux 8 to CentOS Stream 8.
            https://centos.org/centos-stream/#converting-from-centos-linux-to-centos-stream

            sudo dnf install centos-release-stream
            sudo dnf swap centos-{linux,stream}-repos
            sudo dnf distro-sync
            

            Converted from a minimal install.

              Just had KPMG reach out about a position. And it turns out that they do contract to hire for director level positions.

              LOL, what a freaking joke. Imagine how sad your company has to be to hire these yahoos to audit you!

                Too bad they never released a method to go from CentOS 7 to CentOS 8

                    Hey @scottalanmiller is it snowing in Texas today? Weather maps make it look like DFW and Austin are getting some winter!

                      I can actually understand this as it goes along with much of the short term mentality bleeds into other areas.

                      If many individuals want to "job hop" (lack of better term) every two years or so, why not contract????

                      Not saying it will work out but KPMG thinks its worth a shot.

                        Yup, just a little up here. Maybe for an hour or two.

                          Don't confuse contract with contract to hire. I'm the world's biggest proponent of contracting. But also the biggest opponent of contract to hire. C2H means the company wants a contractor but is trying to trick someone who doesn't want to be a contractor into accepting the role under false pretenses.

                            Nope, they don't want someone who wants to do that, hence the "to hire" lie. They only want people who WANT to be hired, but are desperate so will do something irrational.

                                    Assuming the company can exist that way - why are they pushing to bring anyone back? why not extend it permanently?

                                      They either dislike their staff, or dislike profits.

                                      Or both, obviously 😉

                                          XP was a decent Microsoft OS back in the day, but we're talking 2001 here.

                                            Oh I agree, I just thought it was funny how they said it, lol .
                                            we actually had an existing customer bring his own equipment he bought from another restaurant that went out of business in for us to "make work"

                                            All of them are XP devices. so I called him and said "I have the perfect solution.. Come pick them up, and buy these instead" and gave him a quote for new terminals with windows 10. I refuse to install Windows XP and my bosses agree with me.

                                            I'll service XP but only for the customers that still have it.. everytime I do I tell them it's time to upgrade. and we don't support this System anymore.. I've suggested we fire them as customers, but my bosses dont want to lose their monthly Payment.
