One big issue with retail computers coming with Linux is the kickbacks from the Windows ecosystem.

Things like AV trials and MS Office. I don’t know if they break even or make a profit on all the bloatware from a Windows based sale.

Wired is king.

If I gotta do wireless I get one with a RF dongle/base.

Astro A50 Wireless. Needs a dongle but it’s waaaay more stable than any bluetooth headset. Both on range and audio quality.

This reminds me of the wood chips delivery in the driveway bit…

And it’s only going to get WAY WORSE with LLM and Gen AI…

I hate this about new laptops…

I miss the old switch on the bottom.

Thinkpad X280?

Yeeessssss…

Cover the paper label with packing tape (cheap mans laminate).
Use quick set epoxy for a better bond.

Nice addition of solution.

In time Lemmy will replace reddit for tech questions. Give it a few years!

Craziest Burger and shakes I’ve ever had were in Boston.

Boston Burger Company

Adding Portland to my list now.

I specialize in Azure admin.

Sounds like this might be by design to ensure secure connections.

Using AVD as a bastion replacement.

Only option with similar security would be VPN into the vnet and just ssh normally.

1. AVD as a jumpbox
2. Bastion (costly solution)
3. VPN then SSH/RDP

I thought NSFL stood for not safe for lunch.

In that case they should’ve added AI based mod tools instead of just turning them off.

Is that like EWG SkinDeep?

Yes.

Specifically this one: Initial D - Save Me

As shown by a Microsoft employee opening a bug for FFPEG for issues with Teams…

Maybe fix it yourself and contribute or donate to the cause?
