  in any case, i am out for the near future. have fun, stay thirsty..
  

  Me as well. Got some work to complete as well. I am happy we hit 750. Will be back for more hype very soon

  seems like there was zero hyping for the past 5hrs.. everybody got something to do this weekend.. somehow not the way it's always been..

  Well, usually we have people from multiple timezones on this thread. So, hyping was mostly equally shared. This year though some of the usual hype squad members aren't very active

  For example, last year while US/UK/EU members of the hype squad handled hyping for a time period, we Indians used to handle the other. This time though trk, xpress and sikkygoose aren't very active.

  Yeah, can't blame them. Life outside is soooooo beautiful! Feeding the birds in a bit.

  Oh yes, I do live that life, kinda like majority of the rest of the months of the year. But, when RNparty is on, I have my priorities right.

  You ever step outside in December?

  But yeah, could mount an image and it should work.

  this is the part i am unfamiliar with..

  Does the provider's faq or any other document provide details about the steps to mount iso drive?

  nope.. one of those 6-article knowledge bases..

  And upon contacting them, what do they have to say when requesting details about mounting a custom iso?

  waiting to get a reply..

  It's been more than 3 days now right?

  no i got reply last night saying "mount an iso as a quick workaround" which didn't tell me much, thus all my questions here, since i know many of you guys are linux pros..

  Do they just expect you to study and understand their infrastructure and then figure out how to mount an iso on their hardware that you dont have full access to??? That's just odd and a useless response more than being vague which I previously mentioned. It's like shifting blame to the customer for the provider's lack of proper planning.

  i guess it's assumed that anyone getting LET BF offer knows their way around Linux and ISOs and such..

  But that still doesn't explain how you are supposed to mount an iso if the provider doesn't give you the tools to do that. This is interesting though. BTW, can you tell me what you get when you boot the VPS. Is there any lightweight distro or something already running there?

  just debian 13. i think rescue is available too.. can't recall now, no menu option is available now, everything complains that it cannot be accessed while server is performing a task..

  What are you actually trying to do?

  If he hasn't yet answered, he is trying to run Ubuntu 24 to install and setup dante-server on a VPS that has Debian running currently. They don't have Ubuntu yet, so, he has been asked to add Ubuntu ISO on his own. But, the provider hasn't provided any specific instructions on how to add the ISO and boot from it, since the managing panel or dashboard on the provider doesn't seem to have such an option.

  This might be a very foolish suggestion. But, would it be possible to download and bott off an ISO using the grub commandline?

  maybe.. i am yet to try all the advice i received.. server is still performing task.. still inaccessible.

  Dude, at this point, it'd be safe to say this is unacceptable. How many days has it been stuck at the same performing task status?

  a day and a half..

  Oh, I felt like it had been lot more than that

  i've been complaining about it a lot, but since the last incident been only day and a half so far..

  Oh ok. Yah, maybe cause we have been discussing the incident like a lot

  Debian thanks?

  Yah, sticking with debian would be much better at this point, it seems.

  I love Debian.

  I don't know which comment you're referring to, but if it related to Futurama, that definitely sounds like me.

  when a reference went unheeded, i "accused" @noob404 of knowing and loving Futurama. he said he didn't. so i looked up who did. it was you! nothing else.

  

  hope you guys are modern family fans though.

  I can't think of anything who isn't!

  I mean, didn't you get the reference?

  No.... Prolly too tired.

  Missed a pakje on page 742. But, why only for the Dutch though. I would love to celebrate any and every festival out there.

  Dang.

  Don't worry. More to come. The mug giveaway hasn't happened yet, i believe

  Ah, there's still hope! Booyah!

  Hope is something that we don't run out of, on the RN thread. Reguards

  Hoping for mugs for my man!

  Watched MI: FR completely and I believe this was the perfect ending to the franchise. Loved it!

  the ending was very colorful with those planes and all. very very eye pleasing.

  Yes, and I love the way they kept playing with the aspect ratio

  Like a 🌈

  Rainbox and aspect ratio? I don't see the reference

  Everything looks better with a rainbow next to it.
