No, apple pushes "privacy" from companies that are not apple. They collect just as much data as the googs.

My most trouble free environments are the azure ones. Servers spin up or down based on user count. It's not cheap though.

Azure backups are the shit. Need to roll back to yesterday to pull a copy of a file? Log onto azure, go to backup section. Then you download an executable and get a key. Run it on your file server, and it mounts a copy of the disk as it was at backup time. So nice and easy.

Just curious--where are you hosting your vms? We have a handful that use azure, but most are running on prem esxi. I'm biased because I came in to nothing being documented

It's fiddly as hell and you need to be a wizard to actually fully know your way around it. There's so many ways to skin the cat--better hope things are documented. Their support is also beyond worthless for anything beyond buying more time with your boss for you to troubleshoot. I've put in a few tickets for odd issues, never had them resolve a single one. Half the time the client software updates fix one thing but break another two.

I much prefer a VMware horizon linked clone setup for end user VDIs, issues are usually confined to one user when they happen with those in my experience. And I can just put them on a spare, then rebuild their VM with two or three clicks to cut down on troubleshooting.

Citrix is garbage, I work with it daily

I wonder.. could one put their UEFI partition on a flash drive, then remove after booting? Or just dismount the partition, but physical separation sounds better

I block every one of these garbage repost bots.

If I wanted to see Reddit content, I'd go on Reddit. Instead, I am inundated with content there's no point in interacting with, when interacting with content is the purpose of these site.

Ban repost bots

You have your ai voice generator say it, pronounced perfect

Email as a protocol is not private. It wasn't designed to be.

Email isn't private. They don't scan your email for ads which is about all you can ask for
