Fork Gist to Repo on GitHub – Stack Overflow

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/01/09

It is not a full fork and misses a few things (including the Gist description), but is the easiest way to clone a gist to a regular GitHub repository.

I needed it because somehow pushing to gists was denied without explanation or real GitHub feedback.

Another reason is that regular GitHub repositories show you way more information about the commits than Gists do.

Thanks [Wayback/Archive] Noitidart for asking and [Wayback/Archive] Bruno Bronosky for answering at [Wayback/Archive] Fork Gist to Repo on GitHub – Stack Overflow:

Weer een site waar je geen email addressen mag plakken: Kruidvat. Makkelijk te omzeilen.

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/01/08

De blokkade van @KruidvatService tegen plakken van email adressen op kruidvat.nl/login/checkout is makkelijk te omzeilen:

  1. JavaScript uitzetten
  2. email plakken
  3. JavaScript aanzetten
  4. “account aanmaken” klikken
  5. rode velden spatie erbij en meteen spatie weg
  6. stap 4.

While migrating VMs, I keep forgetting ESXi likes the text .vmdk file with a binary -flat.vmdk, where Fusion/ Workstation/Player like binary .vmdk file (and how to fix this)

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/01/02

I keep forgetting this, but ESXi likes the text .vmdk file with a binary -flat.vmdk, where Fusion/ Workstation/Player like binary .vmdk file.

Most sites that mention how to solve it love the cryptic parameters like -i  (software developers: when inventing command-line parameters, please use a more descriptive letter for a command) in stead of --clonevirtualdisk), so for instance Migrate VMware Workstation / Fusion VM to ESXi | Ming’s Blog comes up with

[root...] mv Windows-10-64-Enterprise-disk1.vmdk Windows-10-64-Enterprise-disk1.vmdk.fusion
[root...] vmkfstools -i Windows-10-64-Enterprise-disk1.vmdk.fusion Windows-10-64-Enterprise-disk1.vmdk
Destination disk format: VMFS zeroedthick
Cloning disk 'Windows-10-64-Enterprise-disk1.vmdk.fusion'...
Clone: 100% done.

is more readable as

[root...] vmkfstools --clonevirtualdisk Windows-10-64-Enterprise-disk1.vmdk.fusion Windows-10-64-Enterprise-disk1.vmdk

And yes, I wrote about this before, but keep forgetting it applies :
