Just stop dual booting. This is self-inflicted harm. Setup a VM or find a native workaround.

Nice, I’m part of that .05% Debian 12 crowd.

I stayed on Myspace long past when the majority jumped ship. It eventually lost what made it special when the boy band guy bought it to twist it into something more music focused. But I still preferred it to the sterile, uniformity of Facebook.

Ah, gotcha. Feel like I’m too old to keep up with it now.

Are these called “Wojack” memes? I’ve never understood why this art style became so popular.

I just rip the band-aid off and dunk myself. Better to get it over with quickly. Also, if I’m doing something like a dive or a flip, I find that my mind is too busy on the technique to really consider the cold shock. Plus, then I get to look smugly at the others that saw the sweet move I just pulled off.

I would say not much. If it’s your own personal LAN, and only your devices are on it, and you’re not hosting super sensitive data, then I wouldn’t personally be worried. Just depends on your risk acceptance.

Edit: But if you are hosting sensitive data on an untrusted network, then definitely require a user with a strong password. Also, SMB3 and higher supports encryption (both in Windows and Samba for Linux). Encryption isn’t enabled by default, though. So keep that in mind. Easy to setup on both Windows and Linux.

That’s a security quirk. Microsoft reeeeeally doesn’t want you to do anonymous SMB anymore, and with every version of Windows, Microsoft has made is more complicated to get it working like that. It’s probably still possible, but easier just to make a quick local user account and assign it read/write permissions to the share. Samba on Linux can still do it without as much fuss, but I’ve long since just accepted the extra step.

Interesting. Never heard of that. It’d just be a guess, but I’m doubting this was a person familiar with that. Just a humorous oopsy.

Well, ya got me there.

Maybe because IBM bought Redhat so they’re saying it’s corporate? Just a wild guess. I use Debian, and not sure why that makes me the hide the pain meme.

Technically not from space since the lower stage never made it past the Karman line, which is 100km above sea level.

I’m a long-time Samba fan, but even I wouldn’t run them as DCs in a production environment.

I used it on a laptop for a while. Pretty impressive just how lightweight it is, but a bit of a grind to initially get everything working as expected. Overall, I’m a big fan.

We still use on-prem Exchange with Microsoft Office at work, and it’s really becoming a problem. Microsoft already auto adds shortcuts for 365 (which we don’t use and doesn’t work with our setup), and the “Mail” app (which also doesn’t work with out setup), and now I have to explain to people to use the regularly titled Outlook icon and not the “Outlook (new)” icon (which again, won’t work with our setup).
