Tech Aura. If you have it you understand. If you don’t then you watch in awed frustration as the computer that refused to work 10 seconds ago suddenly starts behaving when I.T. touches it. As an aside you know your I.T. are real wizards when stuff starts working just because they walked in the room or answered the phone. :)

I’m so old that when I started there wasn’t any choice. It was command line or go outside!

I promise that whatever country you live in also has levels to the body armor worn by their special police forces and military.

Ohhh I like this one!

That dedication is how you know they actually use Slackware.

I wonder what must happen to roll out more Linux in the public sector.

Endpoint (device) management is mostly a solved a problem, the challenge lies in integrated systems that allow secured, controlled, and constant access to data in a way that is manageable at scale by hundreds, thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of users.

That is where it gets wicked difficult and is what @Alaknar@sopuli.xyz is referencing. To my knowledge there is no real F/OSS equivalent to the tooling that MS Entra provides for IAM, DLP and MDM. You can maybe get close with a full deployment of NextCloud but that’s really only replicating M365 functionality from 15 years ago.

Is it ultimately possible if you piece enough packages and systems together? Probably but it would be a massive plate of spaghetti that only a team of highly experienced *nix managers could hope to properly support.

You can definitely use a full F/OSS stack to replicate the functionality of a Windows Active Directory network but that’s so last century. Today’s organizations, no matter their type or size, demand more and they won’t move to F/OSS unless they can get it.

Why are you not using the shiny new sudo-rs? You some kind of luddite? Get with the times Grandpa!

If HR isn’t asking candidates about themselves as a person, or is only asking generic “Tell me about yourself” kinds of questions, then **they are doing it wrong. **

On the other side if a candidate doesn’t have any questions about their future work environment, not just the role they applied for, then they too are doing it wrong. A candidate should care about whether they would fit into an environment / culture.

At its core employment is a relationship and both sides should treat it that way.

Due to planned virtualisation in Windows

I must have missed something. What are you referencing with this comment?
