Made a typo smartass, and you know it. 70/30.
Now tell us all how smart you really are. Tell us how to manage a fleet of Linux or Mac machines, or even a mixed environment. One reason I passed an interview was with this very question! Go.
Identity management is only one aspect of AD. Very telling that all these rebuttals are thinking only in terms of what LDAP can handle.
I would love an explanation of how AD can control Linux machines! Can I reset you Linux password over AD? Can I lock you out of using removable media? How the hell do GPOs work?!
AD isn’t simply authentication, grouping computers and users. LDAP does all that.
My last company was a software dev and even they were only 70/40 Windows/Mac.
Yes, seems lots of European agencies are moving to FOSS, but more towards open office solutions. Moving to Linux for the OS makes fleet management pure hell. I know LDAP exists, but that doesn’t begin to compare to AD.
I like that the 7 second limit forces creativity. We shall see where this goes. Bet uploaded videos just get posted to more popular sites.
Doesn’t matter much what users do. Corporations are nowhere close to ditching Windows.
No way to manage a fleet of Linux or Mac machines. Nothing comes close to the power of Active Directory and a bit of PowerShell.
Funny enough, I guarantee there will be GPOs and PS commandlets that let you disable the AI bullshit.
EDIT: Apparently I’m addressing a crowd who has never managed a fleet. I’ll bow to your expertise.
Free Photoshop in a browser. Some modest ads, nothing intrusive. Ublock is stopping those for now. I’d be glad to pay for such fine software, maybe I’d pay the $5/mo. were I a pro.
Somebody clue me in on Typescript. I’m somewhat familiar with scripting, PowerShell guy here.
You are reading way too much into my comment. I just thought it would be a more interesting experiment if the guy had put a tiny bit of effort into making it look at least plausibly real.
Maybe he made it awful on purpose? 🤷🏻
Missed that line! Thanks!
I deploy it through PowerShell.
PS really is the bomb. Been a Windows sysadmin for a decade and I couldn’t do a damned thing without PS. I have no modern programming or scripting experience, yet picked up PowerShell and started implementing it very quickly. If you’re running Active Directory, it’s a must, no question.
Snover has some great intro to PS videos. That’s what got me started.
It’s a whopping 6 pages and mostly double-spaced and more white space. And lemmy upvotes these cynical comments without a shred of investigation.
I’m reading it as making data centers harder to block, now I’m not so sure. Your take?
I just read the bill. Where are you seeing restrictions? I’m reading it as restrictions are banned unless there is compelling reason for the government to enact such restrictions. That’s all well enough defined.
EDIT: I was wrong on the DCs. Restricting them is specifically called out in the bill. Good deal!
Only negative thing I’m seeing is this seems to make banning new DCs a lot tougher.
Would have been far more interesting as an experiment if he had done a better job on better media. Doesn’t usually look so hot, but printing on canvas isn’t some rare thing.
How long would it have stayed up? How would people react?
One reason I like living around rednecks. After the last hurricane, which didn’t really touch our hood, dudes were patrolling the streets in pickups, hunting downed limbs.
There was a sandy patch on the way into our camp where cars would get stuck. One day I pulled up on 3 with 2 vehicles and a bunch of neighbors working on getting them out. Parked up the street and walked down, “OK. Who we getting out first?” I’ve been towed out myself on 4-5 occasions.
Coolest thing is that all those dirt roads are private. Somebody put their own money into upgrading and fixing the whole mess. There are at least 2 guys that cruise around on their little tractors and grade the streets now and again.
Spellcheck crosses out even basic English, has me questioning myself! I’ve probably added 2,000 words to the dictionary, no improvement.
Weird graphic artifacts, non-stop, it’s blinking as I edit this post.
Sometimes the graphics go fuzzy and I have to reboot, not even restarting the video drivers works, no issue in Edge.
Imgur doesn’t load. I use the Imagus extension in both browsers, flawless in Edge, spotty in Firefox. (Yes, that’s on Imagus, probably not the browser.)
I can watch YouTube logged in on Edge with Ublock, no ads. Have to log out in Firefox. So if I see an interesting video here, I have to copy/paste to Edge.
Porn browsing? Straight to Edge. What six keys do I need to hit for private mode again? CTRL+SHIFT+N, as it ever was.
There’s more, but those issues are top of mind.
I could probably figure out these issues, point being, non-technical users would run away. Kinda like how lemmy is utterly broken for me. My brain just shunts off the annoyances, but I can’t expect anyone else to do so.
I can hardly sell Linux to Joe User, when not even technical people use it as a daily driver, was the point of my original comment.
Lemmy: “Switch to Linux!”
Me, in IT for 3 decades: “Fuck is Wayland?”
Comments: Clusterfuck of conflicting opinions.
Seriously, y’all are not moving me to switch daily drivers here. I run nothing but headless Linux servers, but for a desktop? Let me start a fight: Which distro?
Last job was at a software dev. One soul of 130 worked with Linux as his daily driver. One. And y’all expect non-technical people to run Linux?!
Also, and this guarantees downvotes, I don’t have the Windows issues you all tell me I have. Same install, years and years, multiple SSDs and PCs, no issues. I can hear you grinding your teeth, “NOAWW! You have problems! I INSIST your desktop fucks up all the time! I INSIST $MS crams unwanted updates up your ass!” Well, there is an update icon waiting on me. Not touching it ATM.
Only issue in recent memory is that it sometimes doesn’t wake properly. About once every 2 weeks I have to hold the power button for a few seconds, let off, hit it again, acheive desktop.
Not trusting the gang who talked me into Firefox last year. What a fucking mess of a browser. Was on Edge last week, without realizing it, everything was smooth as glass. Firefox fucks up the most basic spellcheck. Really?! Still have to swap over to watch YouTube without ads, how’s that for irony? Imagur is plain broken outside of Edge. I get weird graphic artifacts and issues on Firefox.
Not it you want something impactful. Creativity and editing are tough to pack into 7 seconds.
