Puppy would rock on the space station.

Puppy in Space?
Oh! I see.
Does that differ from the *other* OS in space?

if astronauts are using laptops for personal communication,
they're probably using LPS; a small, Puppy like, live distro.

Karl post very good points of efforts required to build a mission critical system for usage on the ISS. Others do too.
I have several corps I work with which run MS servers which have not been down in several years. One of them is a terminal server which has many multiples of dept using same system daily without issue.
There are ways to setup, even Windows, for mission critical work.
One aspect that is changing in the IT world which creates the tools that are in use on the ISS is the talent in the datacenter. We are seeing more and more come to the table with Unix/Linux/MS skills.
Now that SAMBA rewrite is complete and it interfaces with Linux, MS or Apple's Directory Servers, it is now easier and logical to also deploy Linux as a mission critical system where it is just as happy providing Master Server services as well as client (thin/thick) uses.
One of the most intriguing things, to me, is the co-existence of the multiple countries that have members harmoniously working together. How are they able to do that when we have so much insanity driven by politics? How and at what level are countries training people to live at that level of cooperation? And, is the personal systems at use shared with everyone on the station or are they personally isolated which would give rise to mistrust...even on the station?
And, will the station become so large at some point where it'll contain as many people as we've seen in star-trek? Will they continue harmony into the cosmos? Is this the beginning of a demonstration of mankind's ability to adapt and the carbon units ability to evolve without greed?
Stable mission critical systems for people to use, are minor efforts.

So, that's what that tool was, a pooper scooper!
Seems like we must have a Puppy utility app just for that purpose.
Thanks Simargl, made my night. LOL!

You guys don't keep up with the news.

For Q5Sys
Carbon Units are the makeup of life forms on this planet since the beginning of what we know of as time.
Don't get yourself so wound up following what I say. Enjoy life a little. And get over it.
Peace be with you
Of course Puppy Rocks ..

Right... because you were talking about Amino Acid chains overcoming greed. Yea, that makes sense. [rolls eyes]gcmartin wrote:For Q5Sys

Its so comical to see you try to cover up your blunders when you say something that shows your true nature. But since I know you're pattern of behavior; why dont you go back and remove your post... whats the reason you're using now adays... Oh thats right:

Right! Joke's on you.Q5sys wrote: ... ??? ...
My friend, you "really dont get it". "Carbon unit a blunder???"
This is a forum. It's designed for information to exchange. Think sometimes, when you post your ridiculous attacks.
I never going to be what you expect and you aren't what I expect.
So, get over it Q5Sys. Just get over it and move on with your life. Maybe you'll stop being so testy.
BTW, in case you think I'm too small or weak to back down from you, guess again. I'm not.
Peace be with you.
