In a course, students have to install R on their computers. One of the students has a Windows RT (aka Windows 8.1 RT?) machine (a kind of MS Surface) and told me she cannot install R on the computer ("This app can't run on your PC" message shows up). Knowing nothing about Windows RT and after researching about it on the internet, I leaned that Windows RT does not really allow to install anything except from its own store (I don't know if this is true or not).
Are there any ways to install R on Windows RT?
From the MS website:
With Windows RT 8.1, you can install apps directly from the Windows
Store, but you can't install desktop apps that you used with previous
versions of Windows.
So the answer is no. You cannot install R on windows RT.
Searh for jailbreak windows rt, you need to follow the instructions and only perform this whenever you need to install non Microsft RT software.

So you've bought a shinny new mac M1/M2 and you realise that you can't get virtualisation to work.
I tried every hypervisor and tried a lot of combinations
So it took me days to get the following working with visualisation since VirtualBox 7.0.2 which stated it would work for M1/M2 chipset.
What I wanted to achieve was the following:
Shared Folders
Bridged Network Interface
RHEL based OS
Sounds simple right!! Well this was a lot of trial and error. I read a lot of articles with people patching software just to get the basics going and I couldn't find the patched files so wanted an out-of-the-box solution.
So after hours of trying Centos Stream 8 which all our servers are on and what our development environments are on, I tried installing Ubuntu 20.04 in parallels with shared folders but without bridged networking and this was the light bulb moment when I realised it was the pagesize of the OS, so RHEL 8 will not work.
So I tried RHEL 9 in parallels and it booted up and installed. I then tried to install the Guest Tools so I can get Shared Folders to work but this then highlighted a bug in the Guest Tool which really disappointed me considering they state they have a working hypervisor which can work with aarch64 but this wasn't the case, however it does work on Ubuntu just not RHEL 9.
I then tried VMWare Fusion which failed miserably, you can launch the VM but no Shared Folders or no Bridged Network. Quickly move on to something I tried earlier which was UTM.
Now UTM has 3 modes and it is important to know the 3 (correct me if i'm wrong).
Virtualisation with QEMU
Virtualisation with Apple Hypervisor
Emulation (everything is run via Rosetta)
I tried QEMU but there was issues with Shared Folders so wasted no time in not spending anymore time using QEMU.
I then decided to try the Apple Hypervisor and I noticed everything was running faster than it did in QEMU. Mounting the Shared Folder was easy and simple, and you can mount it in you /etc/fstab for permanently mount, you also can set the Bridged Network in the settings.
So after a lot of trial and error I was able to get a RHEL based OS VM running with UTM using Apple Hypervisor with the same functionality as I used to have with vagrant.
Does any one know how to install NebulaGraph on my Mac book?
I searched their docs but found only ways to install on Linux hosts.
NebulaGraph's core part assumed it's running on Linux distros only for now.
But we could leverage virtualization tooling in macOS to do so.
Options are like
Deploy in VMs with different hypervisors like (virtualbox, vmware player lima etc.)
Leverage Docker Desktop(or equivalent things like rancher desktop, then deploy it with Nebula-Docker-Compose, following this doc
note, the link for the doc is versioned(now, 3.3.0), for future ones who visit this, please choose the latest version in the documentation version drop-down menu.
The book Zero Configuration Networking - The Definite Guide by Stuart Cheshire and Daniel H. Steinberg from 2005 describes a dns-sd command line test tool which should be available for macOS, Windows and Linux. At the beginning of chapter 6 (p. 92) he describes the tool, but it's not an explicit guide on how to download and install it, just that is available from the Darwin open source repository.
The tool offers commands like dns-sd -B which browses for service instances.
I'm a Windows and Linux user, but have problems to find the tool. Bonjour is already installed on my Windows system, but it's not clear to me if this is enough or if I need to download the tool explicitly. When I type dns-sd on the windows command line, it says this command is unknown. How to make it available?
Okay, I just found the out how it works on Windows and now I can answer my question by myself. Not sure how it work on Linux yet.
On Windows, you can install the Bonjour SDK which is downloadable at developer.apple.com/opensource/, click on Command Line Tools and search for dns-sd or bonjour sdk.
After the installation wizard successfully finished its job, you can go directly to your command line, type in dns-sd and you'll get a list of all possible commands. No further comfinguration needed. Tested on Windows 10.
I'm having problems installing BI Publisher for Desktop 11.1.1.9.0 32bit(11g) on Win7 64 bit system (Office 2013). Previously I successfully installed it but there was no add-on visible in Office, so tried with 64 bit version but with no luck. After that I've uninstalled it but now it keeps giving me these errors, "INSTALL DIR get falied!" and "TBMenusSetup.msi!"
Any idea hoe to solve this?
Br
This is what I did on Windows 7 (64-bit) and Office 2013 (32-bit):
Download: Oracle BI Publisher Desktop 11.1.1.7.0 for 32 bit Office on Windows (244 MB) - http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-publisher/downloads/index.html
Run BIPublisherDesktop32.exe
If Add-In doesn't show up at this point, run step 4
Run setup.exe from here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Oracle\BI Publisher\BI Publisher Desktop\DotNetInstallFiles\setup.exe
Done
I also check the following conditions if I have trouble with installing BIP (which I often have)
Make sure that the versions on your system are matching
(JRE,Office,BIP). That means: If you have Office in 64bit you need
JRE(64bit) and BIP(64bit).
Check if the addon is deactivated by word and activate it in case.
Use "Run as Administrator" with the BIP Installer.
Hope this helps :)
download bi publisher desktop and do a fresh install.
if you are not getting the add on then go to Microsoft office icon-->word option-->add ins-->then check in manage drop down(disabled items).If its Bi Publisher then click on that.You will get this in MS word.

Personally, until next time, not sure what worked, as above step I did earlier with no resolution.
But, I have been installing, troubleshooting BIP Desktop for few years and each time it is broken, fix do not exist and there are threads which leads to absolutely nothing. This time around, O365 was rolled out to Pilot Users and yes BIP toolbar gone. Uninstalled O365, re-installed Office 2010, repair/remove/reinstall - none worked. Ran MS Debug/ Sysinternals - Procmon/ProcessXP - found leak threads but nothing to suggest which components is missing or corrupted. Finally, I started running all msi and pre-req sw in BIP dir and DotNetInstallFiles, and it did come back the elusive toolbar, which MS Word fails to load or kept in Inactive add-ins.
I've been using R / RStudio for several months on Windows 7 & 8. Now I've received the upgrade invitation from Microsoft but at the same time, I've heard that there were serious compatibility issues between ancient versions of Windows and Windows 10.
I would need to know if it's possible to run R / RStudio on Windows 10 without major issues.
I have personally tried to run R and Rstudio with Windows with no problems (at the moment). Needless to say, I am on a split setup where my work machine is a windows 10 OS and my home is a Windows 7 OS. However, I find myself using my Windows 7 OS due to familiarity (with the GUI) and potential compatibility issues (that I might not be aware of at the moment). I guess this is a personal gimmick of mine, but as with all 'new' OS, expect to be disappointed.
I'm currently running R/Rstudio on Windows 10 at home. Haven't hit any snags yet. I wouldn't rush to deploy in an Enterprise environment, but as far as I can tell it seems stable enough where R operation is concerned.
Plus, you get Cortana (which, judging by the name, sounds a bit frumpier than Siri, but it is Windows after all)
I installed Win 10 on my laptop (i7, 16g Ram) last week and so far it is working OK with R studio. My desk computer is nearly the same specs as my laptop, but I am keeping it with Win 8.1 for now.
I've been running R and RStudio on Windows 10 (both Home and Pro editions) with no fuss at all yet.
I had also been working with both R and Rstudio in windows 7 and 8. However, Rstudio stopped working after upgrading to windows 10. R is still working appropriately. So, you could expect problems or no problems after upgrading to windows 10. Try holding down the control key while starting R studio.
