  2. Re:Alternate history disclaimer on History Buffs Discover Inaccuracies In Battlefield 1 Trailer (hothardware.com) · · Score: 1

    Thank you! In the back of my mind I seemed to recall BF1 is supposed to be an alternate universe.

  3. Re: FOG Project on IT Leaders Now Expected To Be Open To Open Source (enterprisersproject.com) · · Score: 1

    Sorry, I should say, we donated to the project because its good stuff: something that we can actually use, and we wanted to support the devs. What they do in the future is totally up to them. I don't expect them to continue developing for our sake, that would be stupid.

  4. Re: FOG Project on IT Leaders Now Expected To Be Open To Open Source (enterprisersproject.com) · · Score: 1

    Why wouldn't you donate to an open source project? We actually use this software to get business functions done, and want development to continue.

  5. 2 Years ago I convinced my IT manager to let me implement the FOG project for our System Imaging on site. Its been the best decision we've ever made, and because of that I was able to convince him to donate a good chunk of change to the group. Now, whenever I have an open alternative to a problem, he has no problem with saying "lets test it first, and we'll see".

  6. Re:Plex, Kodi (XBMC), Netflix, and Sling on Ask Slashdot: What's Your Media Setup? · · Score: 1

    I'm running on the RPi B 2 with quad cores, and its running great for HiDef and all other media. I actually have a Fire Stick on the way for Sling streaming to try to see if it runs any better than it does on the XBone app.

  7. Plex, Kodi (XBMC), Netflix, and Sling on Ask Slashdot: What's Your Media Setup? · · Score: 1

    For my personal media, the server is a VM running ubuntu 14.04 and plex, connecting to a 4TB Raid 1 iSCSI, the clients are smart TVs and RasPI's with various Kodi releases, Sony PS units, and XBox units. For streaming services I have Netflix and Sling. Sling is the only problem child
