Thanks - I’m hoping to get all my household machines switched over, maybe look at a HomeServer install.
If all goes well then my parents and extended family are getting upgrades from Win10. I set them all up with decent laptops in the last 5-15 years with SSDs, wifi6/7 and maxed out memory upgrades. If it wasn’t for TPM2 required for Win11 and Win10 EOL things sure would be different.
Perfect - thank you!
Ok - thank you, I think I’m going to be learning a lot in the next month. I last used RHEL for work about 5 years ago and it was a really niche application, I didn’t really explore the OS too much, and OS updates were not my responsibility.
Is there a resource where you can see the bugs/fixes left to resolve or an ETA? Not seen anything saying 4-5 days, I just downloaded 22.1 and I’m going to do a final backup this weekend.
I’ll probably just install .1 and have a play then reinstall .2 from fresh and transfer my data.
In case anyone else wants a template:
I would like to object to Tesla becoming a UK electricity supplier. I do not believe the person who cut USAID and is projected to lead to the deaths of 14 million people (double the member of Jews killed in the holocaust) should be put in charge of anyone’s electricity supply in the UK.
That kind of psychopathic behaviour should not be anywhere near a vital and live saving service.
Make sure to write to OFGEM and let them know how you feel about Tesla having a license.
Possible unpopular opinion, I think striking a year after the government agreed a very generous pay rise including a good step towards pay restoration, is bad faith, and especially tone deaf when the economic forecasts are not exactly encouraging.
I’d like our resident doctors to be well paid, but your timing and strategy sucks.
The investments I was referring to was gilts, which is how the government borrows money from foreign countries and private investors.
We do absolutely need foreign investment as our national debt is currently £2.7 trillion (about £40k per person)
If governments start selling that debt, then higher interest rates will be demanded for new gilts by those willing to still buy them.
You know what you’re right “collapse” of the pensions is overstated, but it will hit “low risk” pensions by a couple of percentage points. Low risk pensions options are mostly owned by people in their 60s who are keeping a close eye on their retirement income, and who also vote in large numbers, not the people you want to make clear you are going to take away a few hundred a month for the rest of their lives.
Just today government borrowing went up just because the growth forecast was a little worse then expected. If the government is suddenly on the hook for tens of billions in water infrastructure investment at the same time they are seen as anti-business and willing to rug-pull private investment, you bet foreign governments will sell their investments in the UK.
There is another way… the new government regulator can force terms on the water companies that limit bill hikes, pay, dividends and bonuses until the upgrades they were supposed to do over the last 40 years are completed and their debts are repaid.
The pensions take a bit of a hit without wiping them out and the government is just ensuring the vital infrastructure is upgraded and sewage is treated as promised when they privatised.
In that case I know a political party you’ll love… until the “find out” period comes for you.
Just ignore what is happening elsewhere, I’m sure it will be different here.
I’d love this to be a 4 step plan however…
Step 5, Watch the collapse of virtually all private pensions in the UK as their value drops due to heavy investment in various water companies.
Step 6, Watch the gilt markets collapse as the UK government is seen as reckless and anti business as it removes assets from private investors.
Step 7, government borrowing goes up just as debt to GDP goes flying past 100%.
Step 8, government collapses and Nigel Farage comes swinging to the “rescue” by stuffing as many of the remaining £50 notes passing through the government into his pockets, and the pockets of his friends, while selling off the NHS and making the UK the first nation in the world to revert back into a 3rd world country.

I’ve just been making a wardrobe in an alcove where in the space of 1200mm they have managed to be out by 40mm (1.5 inches in 4ft for our American folks) Trying to be within 1-2mm and deciding on referencing a side wall that’s curved but making the room “more square”, and having a variable depth wardrobe or making something that looks right but that I know is a parallelogram. Either way a future guy with a tape measure will ask “what idiot built this?”

We have two doors that go into the garden, one in the dining room one in the kitchen, if we let our rescue Collie out of one she will wait by the other to be let in. Collies are smart, ours is defective.
I’m not aware of any insulation and rendering options that allow breathability of the sub structure. This is why any internal leaks need to be fixed and rising damp needs to be mitigated with DryRods.
Pretty much the only buildings that cannot be insulated without a massive amount of work is where the floor of the building is sitting in groundwater without a waterproofing membrane.
I agree, but then articles like this are the reason these people are so annoyed at the installers, they make it sound like there are mysterious procedures and practices which are not being followed, while failing to detail any of them and making the problem worse.
Anyone reading this will only ever come to the conclusion that they had a bad installer and won’t want their help, all while their house is turning into a stroganoff.
Thanks - 22.1 is getting installed today.
