  • Self-Hosters Confirm It Again: Linux Dominates the Homelab OS Space

  • In my experience as a Windows sysadmin, AD and HyperV are the big two.

    I will espouse support for AD readily, it's very good at what it does and connects with M365 with minimal setup. HyperV is also a perfectly cromulent hypervisor, but in that space, They all serve the same function and none I've worked with really have a killer feature that sets it apart from the others.

  • Canadians are betting record sums online — and falling in debt. Here's how to dig out

    Jump

  • I'm sure glad we legalized online gambling here. What a good decision that was

  • Definitely how it went for me

  • Is it like this for car guys too?

    Like, if you finish a bunch of work replacing head gaskets or some other work that involves taking half the engine apart, when you start it for the first time is there a nagging feeling like "What if I forgot something and I'm about to ruin thousands of dollars?"

  • Windows 11 could actually become the same kind of mistake Sony made with the PS3

  • What those EU governments are doing is out of interest for national security rather than hate for licensing. The US has changed drastically in the last decade and getting your sensitive data out of their infrastructure is a top priority.

    The cost of change from Windows to Linux is pretty small for an individual. Most people have one or two machines and a handful of programs, none of which are critical to your continued existence.

    In the corporate world, you need to be absolutely sure that everything will work flawlessly, which often means weeks or months of testing on top of all your regular IT duties, constant support tickets to obscure software vendors who may not have ever worked with Linux, and if some mission-critical piece of software breaks, then the company cannot operate until it is fixed...or you can continue to use Windows, even though it sucks more now.

    I want Linux to have wider adoption in the desktop space, but it's a catch 22. People aren't going to move unless the software is guaranteed to work, and Linux-based software isn't going to be made unless people are using it. This is why Proton was such a big deal. It offered a real option for gaming to move to the platform and now it's viable and devs are starting to take linux into account.

  • Microsoft is bleeding power users and PC enthusiasts at an unprecedented rate. This is a great thing for Linux, but they are still absolutely locked into the corporate world and that's where the money is.

    The reality is that Microsoft solved management of corporate policy and identity like 25 years ago and nothing else has come close. It has its problems, but Active Directory is an incredible piece of software. The combination of LDAP, with obfuscation of Kerberos to the point where you don't even need to know it exists, combined with policy deployment to endpoints is nothing short of a miracle.

    Linux has tools for all those things, but none are easy to deploy or configure. If you have to manage thousands of desktops, Windows is still the clear choice

  • Pornography can be art

    Jump

  • Yeah, I think I agree, but I don't think it's that directors are lazy, they just lack the correct intentions.

    For something to be art, it should make the audience think about it afterwards. Does it evoke any feelings? Is the artist trying to express an idea with the piece?

    Typical pornography is made to get someone off and then they never have to think about it again. It's purely transactional. "Here is something attractive to look at while you jerk off. Please give me money and you can look at more"

    But it doesn't have to be that way. There is no reason why you can't have work that has more substance.(heh) If you look at Japan, between pink films and eroge, they figured this out like 40 years ago.

  • How would you impress yourself?

  • His hands know not the toils of working in the fields, he possesses the ability to read and write, and his pantry contains exotic spices and teas imported from across the globe. It's like he lives as a prince.

    We finally made it!

  • Trump cuts ties with Marjorie Taylor Greene, calling her a "ranting lunatic"

    Jump

  • I'm starting to think Greene is just a little slow and legitimately believed that most of the GOP were not pedophiles and was caught off guard when they were so fervently trying to block the release of the files.

  • You don't even need the other 4 points. You're fine.

  • I mean, depending on the situation, and this is much harder for neurodivergents, that's not the worst advice.

    Chances are you're making a much bigger deal about the situation than it realistically is. The consequences for failing to meet expectations are probably not as bad as you're imagining. Taking a step back to look at the situation holistically can sometimes break you out of the spiral

  • Trump puts intense pressure on Republicans to block release of Epstein files

    Jump

  • Maybe I just don't understand the nth dimension chess here, but if this was documented proof that I was not a pedophile, and that my enemies are, I would not take this action.

  • It happened

  • No i said pigS. One doesn't count

  • Refrigerator ads are finally here!

    Jump

  • Then the answer becomes to get those things without paying someone to show you ads.

    When the illegal choice becomes the objective best experience, you're just a savvy consumer.

  • There are at least 4 Bad Dragon toys on that shelf. I'd defend them too. Those fuckers are expensive

  • Gamepad for Linux Gaming?

    Jump

  • Most people here are recommending controllers with the Xbox layout. They are correct in most cases.

    However, if you're a weirdo like me that mostly plays 2D games, I highly recommend getting a Sony DS5 instead as the Dpad is in a far more ergonomic position for that.

  • what would you do with an old dell server?

    Jump

  • For real. I got my hands on a fully loaded PowerEdge 2900 around 2017 and it added almost $100 to my monthly power bill.

  • I'm saying that when you're ready you won't need to dodge Bond James Bond's bullets

  • I cant fucking tell what is real and what isn't anymore. Like, this is the worst idea for a movie I've ever heard, but it could be real for all I know.

    I'm tired, boss.
