Are there any limitations to Meshcentral? I tried using Team Viewer and a few others when I was supporting family on Windows, and they all wanted to charge me after a while.

This looks like a fantastic set of tools, thanks for sharing :)

Ah, for £4 it's worth a look 🙈😁

That worked out well - one copy in stock for £4.05. I've been trying to learn JavaScript for a while, so thanks for the recommendation :)

Imagine buying a book only to find out that you can't read it anymore because the store you bought it from decided to remove it from sale and stop all downloads of it. You can't restore it from a backup because the DRM prevents that.

They're for me to test. I've got an SSD in a USB3.2 enclosure, so the live ISOs run fast enough that there's no noticeable difference to an installation on my main PC.

I've been using Xubuntu on my server for years, and Mint on my laptop for the last few years, and have been trying to switch to Mint on my PC, so I thought it's about time to try some other distros before I fully commit.

I've got all the main distros, so will be distro hopping for a while to see how I get on, and if any of them jump out at me. I've always used Debian based distros, so I can see me sticking with one, but I've added the others to see if they've changed much in the last 20 years, and if I like the way they do things :)

I spent an hour last night adding new distros to my Ventoy drive. It's so much easier than anything else I've tried :)

They would have had a bigger impact if the previous season hadn't turned them into friends who were then completely forgotten about.

One scene saying something like 'Oh, the Borg are here. I wonder why Agnes didn't contact us first' would have made it a bit more believable, rather than 'We made friends with the Borg but now we're scared when they're mentioned'.

Didn't they hand wave it to say that he'd been alive inside the simulation for years?

Even they aren't as bad as the sites that ask for feedback as soon as they open >.<

I'll second this, especially if you don't mind 'cheating'.

I've got a Java world set up with cheats turned on, so that if I need to stop, I can make a note of my current location and teleport back to my base. When I next play, I just teleport back.

The downside is the temptation to just teleport everywhere instead of managing your resources, or to use the other cheats.
