DId they actually expected Martians to exist, find it, and plug in a monitor?

They need to be able to use IGRDP -- Intragalactic Remote Desktop Protocol. It's all the rage these days, right?

Hey, I wonder if that new fandangled Webb Telescope will have Windows XP on it? lol.

@ITivan80 said in Broadcom to acquire VMWare:

Does this mean that VMware is only going to accept broadcom network cards to operate the hyper-V OS.?

Jaja.

@JaredBusch
Thanks.

@oksana We have used Starwind products for several years and have had really good results with Starwind vSAN on Hyper-V for general purpose shared storage (Hyper-V VM's, SQL clusters etc.). The vSAN product is solid, can be spun up rapidly with only a two or three nodes and unlike Storage Spaces Direct, it can leverage both RAID and non-RAID/JBOD disk subsystems. Starwind is also easier to work with than Microsoft SSD. Definitely worth a look.

@jaredbusch one important migration is all it takes. The only way to have done it without downtime would have been to go from Akamai to another CDN then back to Akamai. We opted not to do the back to Akamai part.

There have been numerous elevation of privileges flaws.

I'm more curious if it could through a hypervisor?

@braswelljay must be running Windows. Thanks government.
