Back in the day (late 80s, early 90s), there used to be a place called "Best Merchandising" (or something like that). You have recreated their business model. You would go through the store, and write down SKU numbers. You handed the SKU list at the desk, and they would then bring them out of the warehouse in the back.
1992... Had a 486/33 (no bloody DX or SX). Paid $3200 for 32MB. We were running a departmental server (yeah, wasn't Linux back then... was *gasp* SCO Open Desktop -- before they were evil)
I used to admin an Motorola Delta 3600 (VME bus box) back in the day. The hard drives were SCSI, and OEM'ed by CDC, but I couldn't drop a stock CDC drive into it, because it had custom firmware on the drive.
As I said, I have an entire bookshelf, all with my name on them (the books that the company provided, or that I bought with company money do NOT have my name on them).
Given the quantity of books there's about $3000 to $4000 worth there. That's worth launching a small claims suit over.
Again, if they don't let me take my books, they'll find themselves on the end of a suit (small claims, so they can't send a lawyer) for several thousand dollars.

Got a link? I'd like to see the whole thread.
I'd previously upgraded to 4.10.x (for some hardware support). Xenial still wanted me to do the 4.4.0-108 kernel. Needless to say, I didn't do it.
This. So much this.
Boo-frickin'-hoo, Mr. Wray. Read the Fourth Amendment, as well as the First, Second*, and Fifth.

I remember his comment after watching a failed Gemini ejection seat test..
"That's a hell of a headache, but a short one.'
I once was on a project where a team had to learn a new platform (we were switching from embedded with a *nix dev environment to Windows).
I gave them an estimate of X man-months + 3 CALENDAR months learning curve.
I got back a response that literally said "Work smarter, not harder". (I wish I'd kept that email).
The project was -- you guessed it -- 3 months late.
Everything old is new again.

Fuck that. I'm not triggered, I just don't celebrate Christmas, so I wish people a "Happy Holidays" instead.
Then what was in the drawer on the Millenium Falcon?
Whoosh.

That'll do it. :(

I may have to get a twitter account, just for this.
When will they change time_t to 64-bits?

Sorry, I thought I had said, "clean out desk with security there".
