Sort of like the difference between the cathedral and a bazaar?
Sort of like the difference between the cathedral and a bazaar?
No no. I’ve got a much better idea!!
Let’s overthrow their current governments and install our puppets; so we can pillage their natural resources.
There should be no consequences from that, right?
Yep. And even I did it in my post. Notice what is missing?
Test your backups!
Agreed… Yes, and… specific to backups all the encryption….
Your production stuff, yes should be as well
Would that be sufficient
No.
3-2-1
Three copies; your working copy, and a cloud copy, and (as an example) on and external HD that you keep at a friend’s house….
On two separate media… so yes cloud can cover that
One off site. So yeah cloud covers that.
Encryption on your off site copies. Yeah I don’t care if they are Linux ISOs or your grandmas recipes. ENCRYPTED
Thanks for coming to my TED talk
Is there a thing that you do?
Are you looking to sysadmin or dev or something else?
Libreoffice. Librewolf but then I deal with students… ymmv
Because the algorithm demands a constant flow of new content!!!
We do a quarterly test.
I have the DB guy make a change, I nuke it and ensure I can restore it.
For us. I don’t work for Veeam, while I don’t like their licensing. Veeam is pretty good
Hth
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Yeah. It is kinda hard.
Backups. First and foremost.
Now once that is sorted, what if your DB gets corrupted. You test your backups
Learn how to verify and restore
It is a hassle. That’s why there is a constant back and forth between on prem and cloud in the enterprise
We make it a drinking game…
Whenever a salespeople or a demo uses weasel language. DRINK!
Thank you. I’m totally going to steal “Tech debt reduction “. Ffs
While I appreciate that these benchmarks matter to someone; I’m more interested in hey it runs and is reasonably supported, not requiring hand rolling any config
Hey this XX runs fine.
Sigh, kinda… but don’t forget to factor in your backup costs too
Tee hee. Maybe you could go to Circuit City?
Sorry.
Doing no research, you might find a third party book that has a cd dvd ?
What issues does Ubuntu LTS have that you need to overcome?
What use case ? - desktops for office work, music production, a student lab?
FWIW. Kubuntu is my favorite, generally used for research and reading, light web mail.
Actually- yeah.
Perception is reality; while hardcore nerds are willing to roll their own distributions, there’s a reason Ubuntu is damn popular. Most normal people want their computers to work, and to have an easy discoverable ecosystem.
So yeah. A Big deal
Yep. I’ve got a different insurance, but yeah I have a very expensive med , where I can only use their pharmacy-by-mail. So I have to deal with this same shit.
I don’t use b2, rather; I have a personal account. Backing up 3 computers and they’ve never said anything over years So. Yeah it’s fine
Sorry yeah. MacBook Pro.
It does what I need to do my job. I’ve got all the terminal tools. SSH ping nmap. MS makes a great Remote Desktop app And the built in screen sharing works great for VNC. SO. YEAH
I would not ask at the interview… I’d wait until after you’re hired…
I’m not a programmer; but a system administrator. 4 Linux and 250 windows 1 Mac; In our org. I’ve run off a MBP for 17 years now. And not had any push back when I requested it, just said I’d prefer a then 15” now 16” MBP.
Good luck
As above; intel will be SO much easier
Macs don’t have a bios. But they boot easily into Linux (again intel)
Enjoy
