A couple made a deal that whoever died first would come back and inform the other of the afterlife. Their biggest fear was that there was no after life at all.
After a long life together, the husband was the first to die. True to his word, he made the first contact:
- "Marion... Marion"
- "Is that you, Bob?"
- "Yes, I've come back like we agreed."
- "That's wonderful! What's it like?"
- "Well, I get up in the morning, I have sex. I have breakfast and then it's off to the golf course. I have sex again, bathe in the warm sun and then have sex a couple of more times. Then I have lunch (you'd be proud - lots of greens). Another romp around the golf course, then pretty much have sex the rest of the afternoon. After supper, it's back to golf course again. Then it's more sex until late at night. I catch some much needed sleep and then the next day it starts all over again"
- "Oh, Bob are you in Heaven?"
- "No!!! I'm a rabbit in Arizona...."

I searched also in CP to be more or less sure not to re post. But my search abilities on CP seems to be weak

Don't blame yourself for the weird search system here. It is difficult to use.
Tips from my experiences over the years:
Use QUOTEs around multiple words, e.g. "my search abilities".
Use capitals for AND, e.g. "my search abilities" AND "seems to be weak".
When searching for a joke, there can be variants in the lead-up, but the punchline is usually the same, so search for the punchline. Try not to include names (of people and places), as they vary more widely.

Perhaps this should become a pinned message, or, posted somewhere prominently on this site. Because there are many of us who are illiterate about searching on CP.

I thought I'd finally have a reason to have a machine running some version of Linux on bare metal, and not in a VM. But nope, still found some show-stopper that sent me right back to Windows.
I bought a 5-bay USB-C hard drive enclosure. I thought I'd dedicate a machine to run TrueNAS, and put some of my smaller(-ish)/retired drives to use again in a software RAID configuration.
Apparently I had silly expectations. Software RAID over a USB connection is "just not reliable enough", so TrueNAS doesn't support it. Only one of the drives is showing up in the web-based admin UI. Supposedly you can drop to a command prompt and build the drive pool from there, but (a) they strongly recommend against it and (b) if you subsequently keep using the admin UI to manage it, you risk breaking things. And "breaking things", when it comes to a RAID configuration, usually means very, very bad things. So that's a non-starter for me.
I thought I had done my homework; people rave about TrueNAS; it's described as professional-grade, yet user-friendly and (bonus) open-source. I had come to the understanding you could throw just about anything at it, and it'll work. But reality is, 10 minutes after a fresh install, this is where I found myself.
Yet puny, crappy Windows sees all drives, and its decades old Disk Manager will dutifully create a software RAID out of them without a complaint, or warning.
I want to like Linux. I really do. I want to run it on a system and have it be useful. I've installed dozens of distributions on VMs, but still haven't found enough of a use for any of them to have an actual physical machine committed to running it natively. I thought this would be my way in. But no, it knows better than me and won't let me do it. I thought that was Apple's thing.

A few years ago, I was trying to get Linux running on bare iron. Now my development and sysadmin days go well back into the 80s where I developed on and configured multiple Unix types, so I know a bit about it. Fast forward, and I managed to get the distribution running, but I had a display problem. Default resolution was 800x600, but I needed native - 1920x1080. After googling and reading a bit, I came across the most god-awful command to fix the problem.
And that was the end of my Linux days. Might get into some embedded linux development next year, so I might be back, but the sheer disorganization puts me off.

And I've had the exact opposite experience. A year or so ago I got all new equipment, MoBo, GPU, Ram, NVME, etc. When I tried to install windows 10 (new DVD download) on that system I got a very helpful popup something like "Driver not found, insert Disc". No mention of WHAT driver was needed, nor any Help/Info button, just OK or Cancel. Fedora, on the other hand installed with no issues, found everything on the system, and has been rock solid ever since. I do have a windows VM I boot occasionally, but other than that I never touch it.
But then, I've been running Linux as my desktop, at work and at home, for at least 20 years.

I'm working on Fedora for a decade and had a lot of problems (just today I solved an certificate issue), but hardware problems are very rare in my experience...
In my cases if Fedora couldn't handle the hardware, than Window could not either...
