99% of the waiting time in my case is either waiting for file copies or waiting on SAP programs to run.
I wish I had low hanging fruit like that to go after.
I copy the install media locally. Although there is probably a noticable performance hot to running my main VM disk over the network.
Building a fully functional SAP system just takes that long in raw install time when your process also includes a sufficiently large system copy, and your hardware isn’t bleeding-edge.
It’s a massive application stack
I wrote and maintain a zero-to-working SAP HANA/S4 installer in pure bash.
It takes a redhat compatible from base install to a working, production-ready SAP system in about 5 hours.
It’s like ~9,000 lines of bash
I am fairly certain SmartTubeNext was a rebrand by the same dev.
If you make it only toonami ads I’m in tho
Never Back Down. That movie is just such a vibe.
I am also curious
Regular Ubuntu I get; it’s specifically the separation in the list between core and the standard 24.04 distro that I don’t get. I can’t imagine that droves of nerds are installing straight Ubuntu Core unprompted. I’d absolutely buy though that some distro or some handheld is based on one.
Where are all the Ubuntu Core 22 installs coming from? Is there some large device or distro that uses it?
DRM is already the primary purpose of trusted compute if you read shareholder meeting transcripts; security is a marketing side effect.
Remote assistance is not rdp, it’s Microsoft’s support hook over the Internet, which requires telemetry to function. It is distinctly separate from, and not a prerequisite for RDP.
The rest of that I’ll have to look into, but disabling remote assistance seems sane in that context.
I wonder if other parts of the shutdown dialog or hover context menu have phone home functions that can only be disabled in roundabout ways; it wouldn’t be the first time. It would not surprise me to learn that the “which apps are preventing shutdown” dialog would be something that triggers a call to phone that data home.
I’d say that the ctt winutil does a pretty good job. I’ve been running installs cleaned by it for a good year now without major issues
That’s reasonable; I just wouldn’t have called my wife’s laptop my laptop I guess. It was either that or there was probably an interesting story behind it.
