VirtualBox shows only 32-bit guest versions on my (64-bit) Windows 10?

I quickly pressed Windows Key + q to open the Search box and typed in: turn windows features on or off Turn windows features on or off I scanned a few options but one in particular was salient: Hyper-V was enabled. So I installed the 64-bit version of Docker for Windows after configuring a shiny new VirtualBox CentOS 7 guest. The latter’d ran just fine previously, but was now causing a BSOD, and I wasn’t even able to create new 64-bit guests.

PSA: Empty mysql root password for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

Today, I was trying out the new release, and then I ran into a wall: logging in to mysql didn’t work, even though I was sure that I’d configured it correctly; i.e. root with an empty password. I’d done this hundreds of times already, so I was sure it’d work, but then again, it just didn’t. So I tried to reset the root password by killing mysql and then starting mysql_safe with a new password.

Microtik port forwarding

Spent too much time configuring port forwarding (RDP) on my (Microtik) RouterBoard 751G-2HnD. The solution, as usual, was buried in a May 2014 forum post. There needs to be TWO (2) NAT rules enabled; i.e. to forward traffic to/fro the router/server.

InnoDB transactions

Yesterday I updated the date column of an entire table meant for its subset only. The solution to this mistake was to recover from daily mysqldump, and filling in the gaps that were, thankfully, able to be filled in. Writing in 2010, the author of the answer said: When something goes wrong, the only restoration option available is to reconstruct the data from a backup (providing one exists). Here are two answers that I found useful; i.

Windows 10 and Google Drive

So I was asking my colleague to switch from Dropbox to Google Drive, mainly because is the company is subscribed to Google Apps for Work. But the pushback was that (Windows 10) search didn’t return hits as expected, and search is all-important. I asked (the search engine) Google for help, and buried in a 2015 forum post is the solution for Windows 10, today. I’m not even sure why it’s been months and not resolved by the principals, but anyways:-
