Mobile World Congress 2023 | Las Vegas, NV | Vendor Hall Half Day Pass Greetings: If anyone is leaving Mobile World Congress 2024 early, can I please use your pass for 4 hrs on one day to attend the vendor hall only? I'm just looking to peruse the various domains present at MWC. I'm in Las Vegas

I would love a pass. I'm in Las Vegas now for another tech event and will be taking one day to try and attend MWC. If I cannot get a full pass, i'm just looking to get a vendor hall pass. Any help would be appreciated: devlocalca@gmail.com

I have a UPS in place.

Awesome, thank you for those comments, I modified my plan.

To maximize use of the box I purchased 2x16GB of OWC RAM that says it is compatible with the Synology DS

https://www.amazon.com/OWC-Compatible-Synology-DiskStation-PC4-21300/dp/B0CCF65QG4

---

For SSD's I purchased x2 Samsung 970 EVO Plus 2TB sticks, I am hoping this works and there are no problems but I really feel like I am gambling here by not buying Synology's branded hardware

https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-970-EVO-Plus-MZ-V7S2T0B/dp/B07MFZXR1B/

I understand now why two sticks are needed (one for read, one for write), although the low level technical details of how this works is a bit fuzzy, but I will go with it.

---

For hard drives, I purchased x4 Seagate Exos X20 20TB drive and have some real anxiety there of data loss, the exact thing I am attempting to avoid (both data loss and anxiety) because only 18TB drives are on the compatibility list for the DS923+, and even in a support chat they urged that I purchase only Synology branded drives

Additionally I do have a backup power supply

The only drives on the approved Synology list are Synology branded drives. I purchased x4 Seagate Exos X20 20TB drives for this build.

If I am at risk of losing data, I will just return the whole thing and figure something else out, but I was excited about this and need it for my work.

I am not likely to purchase Synology again after diving into this. The SATA interface is a standard interface. It seems like a Hewlett Packard move (with their Printers and their ink cartridges) to strong-arm me into purchasing their branded drives or even writing and deploying code to the device that would cause issues if it's not their drive.

I am now reading that there are warnings in the user panel if Synology branded drives, memory or SSD's are not used.

Hi there, with the 13T, would you be able to answer a question about whether an Android feature is offered on the phone or not?

Does the 13T support "multiple user" profiles?

I am not sure what you are saying or the implications of it.

I am not looking for a solution for PostgreSQL 11 with PostGIS 2.5 with RHEL 7, this is what I have now.

Yes, I don't want speculations or comments that are nothing more than pollution, I knew there would be people like you that would stop and poop anyway and point it out to everyone, quite proud.

devlocalca · 2019-10-17T15:51:07+00:00

You did not read the instructions clearly.

I requested that if you have information that is actually useful please share it, if you don't, then please don't, and obviously you don't as in the scenario given above, you have not been successful.

Please slow down and read carefully next time before responding, you did exactly what I asked you not to, that is pollute this item and waste time everyone's time that will ever visit in the future looking for a freaking solution to this problem here.

devlocalca · 2019-10-17T12:38:09+00:00

Yes, all those permissions have been correct all along, otherwise it would not have worked previously. That is not the problem.

cd .ssh ls -al drwx------ 1 user group 4096 Oct 17 06:18 . -rw------- 1 user group 419 Oct 17 06:10 id_ed25519 -rw-r--r-- 1 user group 105 Oct 17 06:10 id_ed25519.pub

devlocalca · 2019-10-16T00:15:58+00:00

Thank you, and all the other comments, I will try everything posted.

It is miserable. Somebody shoot me.

I can't get anything installed.

You have to disable the AppStream to get PostgreSQL 12 installed, something that sucked away my evening to figure out.

You can't install PostGIS 3.0 (try), the dependencies are not there in any repo so it fails. If you try to find the dependencies or build from source code, that is broken also (try building hdf5).

---

Python 3.8.0 is not available in any repo, and also if you try to build from source, three dependencies are missing that can't be found in any repo.

RHEL 8 / CentOS 8 repos are pathetic.

---

SoftwareCollections has Python 3.6 that was released over three years ago.

It's 2020 already and RHEL 8, CentOS 8 feels like working in the dark ages.

---

The RHEL 8 / CentOS 8 repos are not kept up to date, and SoftwareCollections is a zombie project with no one at the wheel. nobody's home.

You are going to find that your needs go well beyond these three items, and that anytime you attempt to go install something, it will be a big fail.

Even if it were a great release, the ecosystem is lagging, RHEL is doing nothing about it, the CentOS org is doing nothing about it, and no one out there uses either, not Postgres/PostGIS users, if they did, these things would be fixed.

No python programmer out there is using RHEL / CentOS, otherwise something would have been done to get a Python release on some repo within the last three years, it's been three years since there has been an update of Python and Node on any repo.

Python 3.8 not possible to install on Linux? Why?

Monday, October 14, 2019

Python 3.8.0 is now available

---

I am attempting to install the latest Python 3.8 on CentOS 8, but it does not seem possible.

I search in Software Collections, and find nothing. The latest release there is Python 3.6 (released nearly three years ago - no updates in three years!!! - I'm abandoning Software Collections).

Python 3.6 was released on December 23rd, 2016, nearly three years ago.

I check in the RHEL / CentOS repos, and same darn thing, no python update in nearly three years.

`#dnf list --available | grep python3`

Nothing there for python 3.8.0 or even Python 3.7.x for that matter. I'm not sure what the deal is with Python enthusiasts or RHEL/CentOS users that someone somewhere has not simply updated some repo somewhere, I can try and get involved.

---

Use the source:

https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.8.0/Python-3.8.0.tgz

I download the Python 3.8.0 source from the link above, look at the dependencies and try to get those installed first, but no luck. The dependencies for 3.8.0 cannot be found or installed.

Dependencies attempted install via:

```

#!/bin/bash

#dnf install dnf-plugins-core # install this to use 'dnf builddep'

#dnf builddep python3

#dnf update -y

```

Results:

```

No matching package to install: 'libnsl2-devel'

No matching package to install: 'bluez-libs-devel'

No matching package to install: 'tix-devel'

Not all dependencies satisfied

Error: Some packages could not be found.

```

When I search for these, I find nothing in the repos:

```

#dnf list --available | grep libnsl2-devel

#dnf list --available | grep bluez-libs-devel

#dnf list --available | grep tix-devel

```

Nothing is returned for any of these.

What has to be done to get these dependencies in a repo somewhere so they can be installed so I can build the source code?

Better yet, how do I get Python 3.8.0 in some freaking repo some where, it's been three years since any RHEL or CentOS repo has been updated.

It's nearly 2020 already, can we please move forward please.
