It's not GP itself that's he problem, it's supposed to work on a few mainstream distris, but the Company admins responsible noped out. They had such a hard time making Windows and Mac work that they can't be bothered for "a couple of Linux users".

Right now I'm stuck on a Mac laptop. I hate it, but after our Network team could not manage to get Global Protect working on Linux, and my boss decided keeping them happy was easier than keeping me productive, I didn't have much choice (Mac or Windows). I've worked in environments before where I was able to run Linux on my laptop/workstation, so long as I was able to support myself and do the required work. I used remote desktop (Or a Windows VM) for my Windows work; my browser and Java for most everything else. Now even Office is a shitty webapp for the most part, and Teams "works" on Linux (As much as Teams works at all).

Even here, I have to wait until Helpdesk manages to build out support for new Mac OS releases, so I'm still on 14.6.

I told them prior that I would be leaving the company if they forced me to migrate to Mac. I'm currently looking for a better position elsewhere and will tell them exactly why when I turn in my notice. Not that it will change anything, it'll help me feel better.

Have you never lost your password device (phone, laptop, etc) suddenly and unexpectedly? That's when you really want that file synced somewhere else. But then it's too late. Bonus on many password vault servers is shared folders, so one can share their garage door code with the family but keep the bank account details to oneself.

Nope. The search order asked for all the usual telecom info (see Attachment A), but Signal doesn't retain most of that data, so all they were able to provide were registration date and last seen date.

Is there a way yet to in-place upgrade or is it still only "flash a new SD"?

I use Jellyfin as a backend for my Kodi boxes (I have 3, and JF keeps them in sync). I used to have a YouTube plugin, but YT broke that this year.

Personally, I use Kodi for that. It works very well with minimal keyboard and no mouse (though it can handle both), so much so that I've run it for years using only an IR remote.

If you're willing to go that route, check out Zabbix and Icinga2 as well. They're compatible with Nagios checks but the user interface is better.

I use ssmtp as well for a simple sendmail replacement. It takes over the sendmail command, doesn't open any ports. You configure it for the domain you want and tell it what server to send everything to and it works.

Really? Such as?

True, but SQLite is not recommended in production settings, and is quite often the source of Nextcloud slowdowns, in my experience. A dedicated DB is the first thing I recommend for a production Nextcloud instance.

Oh and to be clear, in this instance, "production" means "people depend on this", be that your family group, team/department, fraternal order, church group, etc. as opposed to "I'm just playing with this thing."

Slackware 1.2, because it came on a CD in the back of a fat paperback manual I got at Barnes and Noble. It was only later that I learned what a distro is.

Currently on Fedora with a Frankenstein desktop of my own concoction.
