Does it also work as a subwoofer?

Works ok on esxi 6.0.

Lots of businesses don't like change, even if their IT depts are screaming for it. VMC on AWS is ideal for those scenarios.

The tech (HCX) to migrate your aging on-prem to VMC is really easy and painless.

Once Azure offers the same service globally, prices should come down.

My guess would be a UPS related issue.

100% availability until a dodgy firmware or bad update screws it all.

I'm guessing most of these 900.000 machines are already compromised using brute force attacks which are easy on RDP. Maybe hacker Igor needs to secure his box because soon it will be taken over by hacker xiyong.

More iaas or ?

Just when intel have released new Xeons that have hardware mitigation against Spectre/Meltdown, there's never a good time to make hardware purchases anymore.

In some ways this makes public cloud more attractive as all this nonsense is invisible and no longer a concern.

These looks like all SATA drives. I'd rarey buy those for the enterprise, pay the extra for NLSAS.

Alexa is welcome to listen in on my house. 90% of the conversation i filter out and it would be good to double check what my wife asked me a few hours ago.

Alexa "Dave, have you put the dish washer on yet like your wife asked you to do 2 hours ago?"

The US and UK cyber spooks found these Russian hackers by also hacking said routers.

Reports on reddit of WIn2008R2 and Win7 clients losing their network adapter settings with yesterdays patch. Anyone here seeing the same thing?

5.5 to 6.0 was painless with the vcsa with built in PSC. Don't see the point of going from 6.0 to 6.5, that's just lots of pain without any gain. It must suck for sysadmins who have to just do as their told by managers who have no clue and just want to be on the latest version of everything.

If this saves millions and allows us to pay nurses more, buy more MRI scanners and get 7 day a week GPs, then i'm all for it. But all the cloud migration business cases I've seen have turned out to be more costly than doing whatever you're doing on-prem.

A reg key question.

Is the detection built into the patch executable (KBxxxx.exe) so does it fail to run, or is it just WIndows Update that detects it?

So if you approved the patch in WSUS or roll it out via SCCM do the clients install it anyway even if the reg flag isn't set?

Microsoft have said no more security updates unless you install this, so the choice of having performance or security isn't really an option (for Windows Servers)

Not just AV

It's not only AV that it breaks. Applying this update will break other applications.

We've had reports already, Numecent’s CloudPaging solution https://www.numecent.com/cloudpaging/ stops working.

With such a fundamental change to how Windows works, there will no doubt be many applications that fail and will need updating. This is why this patch needs the reg edit before it installs, as MS know this could potentially break loads of stuff.

I thought this issue was fixed with esxi 6.0 anyway?

Isn't this exactly the same thing that happened in May?

But can it run Crysis?
