I suggest that we shouldn't use euphemisms when it's far more valuable to come out and say it. I would certainly appreciate if the centos docs explicitly tagged the other repos with these comments. Factual commentary about risks does not come anywhere close to libel... regards, mark hahn.

Question about "HB" flag and a "battery.charge.high" name
Hello all, During discussion at https://github.com/networkupstools/nut/pull/2430#discussion_r1592317940 I found that while `nut-names.txt` documents the `battery.charge.low` as the "Remaining battery level when UPS switches to LB (percent)", there is no counterpart as `battery.charge.high`. First I thought one could be just added... but for that matter, what could one logically mean -

/lib/firmware/microcode.dat update on CentOS 6
What's amazing to me is, after "Intel Inside - don't divide" (their 486 debacle), they didn't learn and have a better plan for addressing these kinds of things. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris Murphy" <lists at colorremedies.com> To: "centos" <centos at centos.org> Sent: Wednesday, January 24, 2018 12:06:01 PM Subject: Re: [CentOS]

Bug in Sweave? -- scoping problem? (PR#8615)
I have found a strange scoping problem in Sweave. The following Rnw file doesn't produce the same output in Sweave as it does if I produce an R file using Stangle and execute that: \documentclass[12pt]{article} \begin{document} <<R>>= election <- data.frame(A=1:3, B=9:7, C=rep(0,3)) partytotal <- rep(0, ncol(election)) for (i in 1:ncol(election)) { partytotal[i] <-

Advanced Format Technology
While researching another issue unrelated to Syslinux, I found some mildly disturbing news that affects Syslinux. As HPA stated back on 2009-06-04, hard drive manufacturers are pushing towards a 4096B (4kiB; 4k) native sector size. They're calling it "Advanced Format Technology". It appears that WD (Western Digital; WDC) is the first with some products being released back in

error in arfima...
Dear Martin, Sad that the bug is beyond your ken... Fortunately, the error happens only rarely...The length of LYGH was 719 and there were only two such errors..I will just replace them with NA and make do. By the by, what if I send LYGH as an attachment to your actual mail ( not the r-help mail)? Will it help? Can you then pinpoint the cause? Or should I raise a bug

centos Installation on Multiple machines
Hi, I want to install customized centos on multiple systems. Can PXE boot do that ? Apart from this is there any other way of doing image copy of centos OS and installing it on several client machines through network. I used clonezilla, but after image cloning, i will again have to use the clonezilla LIVE CD on client machine to do a image restore. I want to make a clone of centos OS and
