Docker, giving it a shot.

So years ago when the name Docker started circulating I thought it was stupid... such BS.
Did I give it 2 minutes?  Nope.  A real head in sand moment if I must say.  FF to today.. I am accessing a full Team license to Pluralsight via $boss at $work and I stumble across the Docker course.
Ok.. fine.
So I plow through the intro and my ears are perked. If I were a dog, my tail would be at 12 o'clock.

So I have this Mac Mini at home that un recently was my Plex media server, well the thunderbolt nas I used as my BE storage up and died. So I loaded docker-ce and went to town.

Right now I've got containers for Pi-hole and Portainer.  I've always wondered how much of an impact pi-hole would make in a house with 5 internet users so it's up and going.  Then portainer because it was recommended by an acquaintance in IRC and a mention from the Googs.

So far pi-hole is eating an impressive 44mb of ram and portainer 7.54mb.  <Borat "very niice">  I'm impressed, honestly. I'm now searching for other legit container uses here at home.. I want more.

AMD Radeon Adrenalin drivers, Code 43 in Device Manager. -SOLVED

So I'm setting up a new rig for my oldest daughter, she bought herself an Oculus Rift (Lucky ass!) Not like I haven't been wanting VR since it was a pipe dream! lol.

Anyway so she needs a new rig to power her new toy, she's running on an I7-3770, 8gigs of ram, a 500gb SSD and a GeForce 570Ti.  It's served her well so far however it's not good enough.

So anyway I'm setting her up with an HP Z620 workstation, powered by a Xeon E5-2520 6 core, 16gigs of RDDR3, another 500 gig SSD and an RX 570. 
So this is a fresh Win10 Pro install right?  I get it home and it's fully updated and go to install the most recent Radeon drivers.  I download 18.21.x, the installer routine completes fine, I reboot only to find a Code 43 in Device Manager.
What the hell.
I won't bore you with the details because chances are in your found my site you've already tried numerous things on the Googles.

I installed the atikmdag-patcher.. originally intended to remove the resolution and refresh limitations from older Crimson drivers.  Located here: atikmdag-patcher

I don't know why.
I don't understand how.
It makes zero sense to me but This. Shit. Worked.

Ran this .exe, it says it patched a few things and a reboot later and BOOM! Windows is happy.. 3DMARK11 is happy... I'm happy.
