I mean since the advent of SSDs I’ve not found the boot times of computers to be all that slow and I typically quite like coming back to a clean desktop on a new day rather than having junk from yesterday being thrown at me.

Ah yeah I forgot about hybrid sleep as I turned if off years ago and forgot it existed. Such a nonsense feature.

The main thing I’m learning from this thread is that a surprising number of people don’t shut their machines down when they’re done using them. Which is wild to me.

Can you mount SMB shares in unprivliged containers? I thought that was blocked.

Can the host itself write to the file share? You can check this by trying to create a file in it via the host’s shell. If it can’t write to it the container won’t be able to either.

What was this guy doing to break his pihole all the time? I can’t remember the last time I logged into mine at all.

This looks Intresting. Reminds me of evil genius a bit.

Microsoft is a lot more aggressive with EoLing it’s Windows versions now exactly because XP lived so long. It was an absolute pain for them to maintain and support that for so long and they’ve made very sure they don’t repeat that experience.

Yup I’ve got a box in my mum’s house that all my off site backups go to and it’s a damn site cheaper just to give her some money for the electricity cost of it each month than pay for any cloud service.

This doesn’t remove security and compliance requirements for the business though. For our Linux endpoints we still deploy an AV on them and limit the user’s ability to add exclusions.

You can pry my gen8 hp microserver from my cold, dead hands.

You’d be surprised. For medical info a lot of that is going to be sorted in windows servers running as either file or sql servers.

Argentina?

Competitor to steam, it’s selling points are DRM free games releasing old games in playable States for modern machines. They also sell contemporary games.

Buying from GOG is also useful as you can keep the offline installers somewhere if you have the storage for it.

Either ignore like I do or add a self signed cert to trusted root and use that for your services. Will work fine unless you’re letting external folks access your self hosted stuff.

They tried but they’re losing.

Always been a folding@home guy myself.

I mean for many (myself included) setting up shop in Israel is reason enough for boycotting an organisation.
