My problem with Angular is that I don't know why they call it Angular since it is something entirely different and how long it will last until the next ground-breaking roll out. Emphasis on breaking.

Yeah, we were getting very close to doing angular when it was at rev 1.x or 2.x or whatever. Then they had that "4.x Will Change Everything" announcement and we left it behind.

We have today discovered that there are three well-known bit positions within any binary value:
LSB - Least Significant Bit
MSB - Most Significant Bit
RSB - Random Sh<nobr>it Bit

My eyes are playing tricks on me! I read that last one as Random Shift Bit!  Now it makes sense!

Those newsletter taglines are hilarious, this is my favorite:
Quote: This robotic finger attachment for your smartphone will gently caress your hand
Right. That's definitely what it's for.
HAHA! Now I wanna buy the robotic finger so it can "caress my hand"
Here's the other golden one:
Quote: Microsoft says they can recover files deleted by Windows 10 October 2018 Update
They'll post them all to a SharePoint file share. Please only download your files.
I can honestly imagine someone going into another person's folder trying to download their files

0) Got a used Intel NUC (i3 dual core, 4GB DDR, 60GB SSD), swapped in a new 250GB SSD and doubled the RAM), installed Lubuntu 18.04 and Kodi, and have started configuring Kodi to see/use the Windows box that hosts the media (soon to be a linux box).
1) Installed Ubuntu on three laptops of various ages. Wireless doesn't work on the two oldest ones, so I'm still working on that.
2) Have two Raspberry Pi booting Raspian from a 32GB thumb drive, used as Pi-Hole DNS servers to block ads (and doing a bang-up job I might add)
3) One Kubuntu linux desktop box just sitting there on my server rack. I'm going to reinstall an OS on it - probably ubuntu minimal...
4) Will migrate my desktop to Ubuntu in the next week, followed by the wife's desktop, and finally the two media servers.
I'll end up with only one Windows box for SQL Server and intranet IIS duties.

You don't need Windows for Sql Server...we use Sql Server 2017, which is the version that runs on Linux. Much faster install than on Windows.

Talking about SQL Server, we don't need it anymore, except some stubborn customers who refuse to use PostgreSQL

And if you are using .NET Core, Kestrel is cross platform, and if you need features it doesn't handle OTB, you can run it behind NGinix. No need for IIS, plus Kestrel is a lot faster.

You know, I need to archive your posts and the responses for when I have time to dive into switching over to Linux. There's a wealth of information in your posts and the responses!

All linux, it's not a dream.
After moving to my new dev box: linux with windows VMs, couple of months ago...
Sunday just gone I cloned the new box install onto the old one (was w7), fiddled the fstab,... that's all it took, works like a charm. (different hardware, doing that with windows sure fail.)
another 15 minutes (that long coz out of practice) to get it talking with samba, set up scripts to keep the dev/work files in sync. done. Last active windows box bites the dust.
The old box (always intended as the working backup) is now a true mirror - makes keeping it in sync so much easier than doing it linux <-> w7, moved it to the living room and hooked up to the TV so old one's also now my media movie/sports stream box.
all linux, and it's great, I escaped w10 infections in this home.
... well apart from my 5 year old w7 laptop - but it only comes out when I go on holidays (webmail, teamviewer, a few stored movies - really cant get into doing those things on a phone). ... getting a bit flaky anyway, (methinks too many trips stowed in me check-in bags) so I'll not bother converting it; soon to be replaced with a pad thing - not crapple if I can avoid it.

Good for you!
I would do the same. Unfortunately, my Linux foo isn't quite up to setting up the boxes, explaining the differences to my wife & daughters, showing them how to get things working...

Actually, Gnome3 is fairly intuitive for anyone that uses a smart phone. It fairly effectively accomplishes what Windows 8 attempted to, a shared experience between devices.

Thanks. I'll take a look at it.

Switch to SQL for Linux... Uses much less resources and perfectly compatible...
If IIS is only for internal use, you may consider to move your code to ASP.NET Core and use the Kestrel service it has built in...
You of course can move to Apache or nginx...

Why would you stop there? Why not migrate SQL Server to MySQL or PostgreSQL, and IIS to Apache?
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

i'm looking at a vm solution, but the box needs more ram...
