lud , to 196 in rule

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.

What does Protestants have to do with this?

lud , to Technology in South Korean ISP Targeted Torrenting Customers With Malware

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

lud , to Selfhosted in Cloudflare is bad. Youre right.

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 , to Technology in Windows 11 is now automatically enabling OneDrive folder backup without asking permission

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

my brain tired now, I stop talking about this

Fair enough.

lud , to Technology in Windows 11 is now automatically enabling OneDrive folder backup without asking permission

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.

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 , to Technology in Windows 11 is now automatically enabling OneDrive folder backup without asking permission

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.

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 , to Technology in Windows 11 is now automatically enabling OneDrive folder backup without asking permission

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 , to Mildly Infuriating in 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.

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

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 , to Privacy in What would you consider your threat model?

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.
