What does Protestants have to do with this?

lud ,

I'm not religious but I live in a protestant (but mostly unreligious) country and it sure seems more sane than Catholics.

Our national church is surprisingly liberal and is welcoming to LGBTQ people for example. The church is also not involved in normal politics. We have specific church elections where members of the church can vote for church shit, but nobody really cares about that.

Catholics are insane though. Why the fuck would anyone trust a homophobic idiot in Rome?

Catholics are the worst of the worst.

lud ,

That's crazy. Why the fuck did they think that was a good idea‽

lud ,

It's only a good registrar if you don't care about privacy and you're ok with their selection of TLDs (selected only from registries without privacy).

I wish they supported my country's two CCTLDs but other than that I'm very happy. I would never buy any of the crazy vanity TLDs anyways.

I mostly own .com domains and two CCTLDs domains.

lud ,

Since you use group policies and images (even if images are outdated nowadays) I assume you are trying to configure this for a company with an AD domain and M365 licenses. Since you couldn't use group policies with a domain and you can't use M365 features like OneDrive without licenses. I hope you are not allowing personal accounts..

Why wouldn't you use OneDrive in this case?

It's much better than the old way of home folders in a file share.

Anyway I'm half tempted to try and do it myself because I doubt it's impossible.

lud ,

Not that I agree with using local accounts instead of domain accounts but fair enough.

It's much better than the old way of home folders in a file share.

arguably subjective

Yes, of course. IMO OneDrive is much easier for the end user instead of having to remember to store files in a share or using folder redirection which is prone to fail sometimes. Because using OneDrive they only have to store files where they normally store them and they get automatically synced and backed up to OneDrive. Something being easy is a huge benefit because it will ensure documents and everything else is backed up properly and it reduces support load.

Please tell me you have some kind of backup of those computers where you don't use shared storage or apparently anything "proper".

You don't use Windows home too, right?

Btw, GPOs only work using a domain. You are probably using local policies and those are sometimes not as likely to work.

lud ,

You have backup and tape but not shared storage‽
Wut‽

I misunderstood what you meant by local accounts. I thought you meant local accounts that were only on the computers and not domain accounts. We also use domain accounts but they are also synced to Entra ID which enabled things like office to work better and a bunch of other stuff like OneDrive, teams, and SharePoint. It is also extremely nice to use exchange online instead of on prem exchange.

Personally it seems like a HUGE pain in the ass to backup workstations.
We never do that. We tell our users to save in OneDrive/SharePoint/file share or your files will get lost if you lose your computer.

How do you do the backups? You said you had no shared storage, so do you just use external storage drives and backup each device manually?

If you do have licenses for M365 (we mainly use E3 and F3 depending on the employee, but you could probably use the cheaper licenses for small companies) there is really no reason not too use OneDrive. It's convenient for the users and for IT. If you don't have licenses you shouldn't have to worry about OneDrive anyways because you don't pay for it.

lud ,

Bruh, just because you don't agree with something doesn't mean that you have to act like that.

Please tell me what exactly you disagree with.

lud ,

Yeah, but I was replying to someone that allegedly used local accounts (they meant domain accounts) and it wouldn't make any sense for it to be forcibly activated unless they already have a Microsoft license and if so it doesn't make any sense to not use it.

lud ,

Well I suggest setting something proper up if you have the budget.

my brain tired now, I stop talking about this

Fair enough.

I was explaining to my daughter about the differences between Gimp and Photoshop and saw that Adobe had a page that claimed to compare the two. It never compares the two. It barely mentions Gimp. (www.adobe.com)

I expected ridiculous propaganda from Adobe, but they give absolutely no reasons why Photoshop is better than Gimp and list a bunch of things that Gimp can do too....

lud ,

I highly recommend the Affinity suite of problems (Photo, Designer, and Publisher). While they aren't free they are much cheaper than Adobe and they are only available for a one time fee.

lud ,

Lol, it's a typo but I'm not changing it, haha

lud ,

Mainly it's similar to yours but recently I'm at an elevated risk of targeted attacks due to work. I don't think anyone will or has tried to hack me though except by trying random old leaked credentials, but that doesn't count.

lud ,

Moritz Körner, Member of the European Parliament, disclosed the decision on Twitter. Swedish publisher SVG said, “The question was removed at the last moment from Thursday’s ambassadorial meeting in Brussels”.

Who are SVG? I have never heard of them before and I can't find anything online.

lud ,

Don't use HTTPS on your IOT sensor network then.

lud ,

It's obviously mainly supposed to protect against basic thieves in this configuration.

lud ,

What is it then?

lud ,

Why do you think that?

lud ,

But you don't say semiweekly

lud ,

So Windows with something like the tool "everything"

lud ,

Isn't the satellite thing just free temporarily?

lud ,

I like my ThinkPad for that too. It's great.

Any good email service except tutamail and proton ?

I am now using disroot . I don't care about anonymity or anything as I just wanna use it to connect to my bank, ID and buy/book shit etc. Which all have my phone number, address, name etc anyway so no point in that . I just want the security privacy to be good enough that no one can easily hack it, steal my OTP, inbox etc and I...

lud ,

Why do they hate JS so much? Haven't they used the modern internet?

lud ,

Meanwhile, the vast majority of people making calls are still going to have only one speaker, so it'll still get downmixed to mono. Even if your phone has two, and you're not holding it next to one ear, they're still going to be so close together as to effectively be one point source.

No, lots of (probably most) phones and other devices has stereo speakers.

Either way headphones are most often used for this (you know like the thumbnail)

lud ,

That is not for Apple to decide. They should just follow the law.

lud ,

Imagine how much nicer a world we'd live in if everyone avoided alcohol.

lud ,

Is this some sort of reverse not all men or something?

No? I just wished for alcohol drinks to be banned world wide. Same with smoking and all the other bullshit that costs society a lot of money and decreases peoples health significantly.

lud ,

I'm not seriously suggesting that we ban all those things. That is impossible.

It's just my wish since they are so harmful.

Either way your response shows that it's not worth discussing anything with you.

lud ,

Yeah, what's "gaming" about this thing?

Red accents of course.

lud ,

I have bought from them twice and both times I bought using one of the deals and the price matched what they said in the ad.

They even adjusted the pre tax price so the after price matched the AD pricer, which is nice because my country has quite high taxes.

lud ,

Designing graphic cards is really fucking hard though plus they make the firmware.

lud ,

Not definitely, recall will be opt-in and only available on arm computers with a very specific ARM CPU

lud ,

Most corporations use enterprise or maybe Pro.

Schools mostly use the EDU version.

lud ,

I mean the old jokers weren't not psychopaths and they weren't exactly stable.

A social app for creatives, Cara grew from 40k to 650k users in a week because artists are fed up with Meta’s AI policies | TechCrunch (techcrunch.com)

Artists have finally had enough with Meta’s predatory AI policies, but Meta’s loss is Cara’s gain. An artist-run, anti-AI social platform, Cara has grown from 40,000 to 650,000 users within the last week, catapulting it to the top of the App Store charts....

Federated identity services

Like an SSO system?

lud ,

Comparing apples to oranges are we?

lud ,

Unfortunately banking apps are a necessity for lots of people.

lud ,

They didn't ask if Google was a Russian site, they asked if the PDF was hosted on a Russian site (which is a no, in site case)

lud ,

People always say the twitter has lots of CP and that the fediverse has lots of CP but I have yet to see any in my entire life (luckily)

lud ,

Go to twitter and search for "porn", "pussy" or "dick" or whatever you desire.

Twitter has had porn for ages.

lud ,

True, but if it genuinely works really well then does it really matter? Seems like the change would be a net positive.

lud ,

Pretty sure Wayland is installed by default and maybe even enabled by default on new installs.

On the login screen there should be a button to switch between x11 and Wayland.

lud ,

No not really, the GPUs that datacenters are buying doesn't even have a display output so they are useless to the vast majority of home users.

If you run a home lab then maybe.

lud ,

Personally, I wouldn't say "it doesn't use Wayland" when it absolutely can with a single mouse click and it works great.

lud ,

The most regular pc user probably only got a work computer that runs 10 or 11 and they will likely have no choice since most companies don't support Linux clients. My work actually does which is neat. I would absolutely use Linux at work, if working with Windows wasn't my job.

lud ,

I have never understood why people still like 7.

I thought it was decent when I last used it, but Win 10 is much better.

7 is fairly ugly and has a lot of missing stuff for 10.

lud ,

Sync is great. It's also incredibly smart that you can easily link to settings in comments.
