Tool libraries are libraries, not rentals.

So no, they aren't saying renting is the same thing as a library. They are saying libraries offering more services are a great way for you to save money by not buying a tool you only need once or for a day here and there over the years.

Since the start. Forget working with them, it's a rough go to even try and communicate with them.

And that goes back to mailing list days, creating a personal grudge against Gnome so firm that I haven't used it since the early 2000s.

Thankfully there's KDE for my general use and a wide variety of lightweight options for other uses.

I'd put in the remaining $5 needed for Thomas to be bought

Correct.

Which the other person is consistently ignoring and getting salty about, and selectively ignoring my comments to be mad because "but Google has it in the handbook!" rather than actually read what I said.

They commented "I don't know why people keep saying they removed it".

People say that because it was big news when alphabet, in restructuring, removed/replaced it from their duplicate handbook. It was removed as the Google motto as well, and kept only in the last portion.

So why do people think Google removed it? Becase ten years ago it was big news that Alphabet removed it.

This ain't rocket surgery.

GOOGLE KEPT IT IN THEIRS.

ALPHABET DID NOT.

Holy shit dude. Read.

Dude.

Please read what I said. ALPHABET.

ALPHABET HAS A DIFFERENT HANDBOOK. I have said this multiple times now.

And I will say again - Alphabet copied the handbook in restructuring then removed it.

The Google handbook IS NOT RELEVANT AT ALL. READ WHAT I WROTE.

Alphabet <> Google.

The parent company, Alphabet, removed it from the handbook. I couldn't tell you if they put it back in, but Alphabet removed it about 10 years ago.

This is not some conspiracy theory, it was released, they replaced that section of the handbook.

ETA:

Following Google's corporate restructuring under the conglomerate Alphabet Inc. in October 2015, Alphabet took "Do the right thing" as its motto, also forming the opening of its corporate code of conduct.[1][2][3][4][5] The original motto was retained in Google's code of conduct, now a subsidiary of Alphabet. Between 21 April and 4 May 2018, the motto was removed from the code of conduct's preface and retained in its last sentence.[6]

Your memory of the Google handbook isn't really relevant.

It was dropped by alphabet from their handbook.

Almost 10 years ago iirc.

I've got a small fleet of tmm's, so HA is just practical for me, but yeah that works to with a single machine. Especially if you were sharing desktop use on it.

Proxmox is a server OS based on Debian which is oriented on running virtual machines and Linux containers.

The physical server runs proxmox. The services can all be individual containers (LXC's).

Adding to the number of servers (and migrating containers later) is a benefit of Proxmox, since you can buy another PC to be a server later, and easily expand as you go.
