I do work on a bit of crypto trading and thought I'd look at MT5 as an option for a front end for possible extra trading. The official site gives a script to install MT5 via wine. I figured I'd brek down the Fedora version of that. This is done…

Just got hooked into Crypto currency trading/mining (ok, I've been mining for a while). So far the learning curve is pretty steep - but managable. My experience so far is fun, fresh and new (like most new gadgets). And working out how to game the system or gain in a…

ESXi 6.7U1->6.7U2 update introduced a "Not enough space" error when running the CLI level update. This appeared to have been carried across to the ESXi 6.7U2 to 6.7U3 updates. This is because one vib is just too large for it to install. The solution is to update one VIB then…

Lookslike I've gotten overboard with a lot of hardware picked up for cheap. 3 x Dell 6248's for ~$50 - a bunch of RAM (ECC 16GB)x10. Got a couple of hexcores (X5650's) coming up to fill up the old school X8DTT (Supermicro) motherboards coming up. Been busy the last few…
