schestowitz | centos is a mess now... Techrights run it and so does my company's client. it HAS NO YUM | Feb 17 20:22 |
schestowitz | Unless yum was uninstalled intentionally (probably for a reason), this is not really CentOS (see http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/BrokenVserver#head-bf758229f34d795cfd2b806bfce27df3131e5e63 ), so I will explore the option of scp'ing yum RPMs over to the physical machines that lack yum and then take it from there... | Feb 17 20:22 |

schestowitz | > I like to think that all which really | Feb 17 20:33 |
schestowitz | > matters is happiness. Any thoughts on that? | Feb 17 20:33 |

schestowitz | > Me: | Feb 17 20:33 |
schestowitz | > Julie is doing great. She is a leading member of a local A.A. group and has | Feb 17 20:33 |
schestowitz | > been addiction free for at least 5 years. | Feb 17 20:33 |
schestowitz | An addiction is often a symptom of lack of happiness; happy people are not driven into substitutes for contentment. | Feb 17 20:33 |
schestowitz | > She is a problem solver for others as well as for herself; she has over the | Feb 17 20:33 |
schestowitz | > years consumed vast information in the field of psychology and gained much | Feb 17 20:33 |
schestowitz | > valuable insight to the psyche of people. | Feb 17 20:33 |
schestowitz | > | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > I affectionately call her the family pit bull. Only with consent and | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > permission, she will advise with logic that rings a bell in your brain and | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > conscience. As an exercise fanatic she remains a beautiful woman who retains | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > a youthful look and is in terrific physical shape. Her character is crystal | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > pure; she is caring, kind and generous. She has many close friends and as | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > far as I can see she is "reasonably happy," and what more could any loving | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > father ask? | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | Some people, in my humble opinion, are happy at the expense of others, whereas other gain happiness from helping others. It sounds like Julie is the later. | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > As to your statement "all which really matters is happiness." That is | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > hyperbole...It's an illusion of youth and young lovers; in my opinion it | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > is unrealistic. | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | Happiness is an outcome, not a commodity. It's an end goal, not the means. | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > Remember this... MONEY MATTERS. | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | To a degree. Studies show that past some certain points money ceases to add much to one's happiness and sense of self-worth. | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > Try being happy if your | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > pockets are empty and you live day to day, | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | That is a 'cliff' edge case. Not rich means *not* "poor", as that would be a false dichotomy. ;-) | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > on the brink of disaster, facing | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > threats of health, | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | US should get national healthcare ASAP. | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > shelter and living in disgusting conditions among other | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > desperate people. | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | One has to be very poor for that. | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > Is the person happy... who has to who take a bus to work | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > every day because he can't afford a car? Can you be happy if you are unable | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > to support or properly educate your children and knowing you can't even give | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > them simple luxuries which are beyond your means. | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | Children are another matter. State schools are sometimes free, too. As for buses, it's more of peer pressure and social anxiety that play a role there. | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > For the rich, money cannot buy complete happiness but it surely can | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > ameliorate some problems and put a sugar coating on troubles, which in most | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > cases can be overcome with what money can buy...e.g. psychotherapy, premier | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > health care, creature comforts galore, and if it is respect you crave, in | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | > many instances money begets that too. | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | Money earns respect from those whose respect you don't need. They would have to be selfish and shallow. Seek to be respected not for wealth but for good deeds. :-) | Feb 17 20:34 |
schestowitz | "Adding yum seems risky to the systems (must back up the server first, as per http://wiki.centos.org/TipsAndTricks/BrokenVserver#head-cda937737509d6e8500d116b375a1384c7ea8920 ) and I would hesitate to do something that can jeopardise physical servers with many VMs. May I suggest that we verify with the client that they're happy for us to add yum despite the risk? Or inquire to see if they removed yum intentionally?" | Feb 17 20:42 |
