    Your comment is bizarre. I wouldn’t ban anyone over it. But if you had spammed that multiple times as alleged in the ban, fair enough.

    For the record I have also been banned for stupid reasons on .ml

    For example when this power hungry mod said some bullshit and got downvoted to hell for it, I commented and got a lot of upvotes. So as is customary in .ml they censored my comment because they disagree because I was “rationalising fascism” which is completely ridiculous.

    Obviously I called them out and called them a fascist, because I know you guys think that’s the absolute worst insult ever (which is unfortunately diminished by the fact that you use it for literally everything). It’s honestly quite insane how tankies honestly seems to believe everything Putin says.





  • The reason that most companies don’t want you to do that is because they don’t want people running around installing their own OS and doing whatever they feel like on company devices.

    Letting people do that would be an IT and information security nightmare.

    It’s the same reason that no (sane) company would give local admin privileges to everyone.

    The reason why companies generally don’t have an official way to use Linux is because it’s hard to support two platforms simultaneously. Especially when you have, certificate and/or AD network authentication for wireless and wired like we do. You also need to consider how the two platforms should interact with each other. For example Linux devices should be able to connect to the AD domain with Kerberos and need to be able to access SMB shares and probably other systems.

    In short it’s more complicated than “just let me try”.


  • I am a Windows admin but two of my colleagues who are Linux admins use Linux machines that are running Ubuntu+a few internal tweaks to make it better fit us. The Linux platform is developed primarily by one of the developers at the company and some others (primarily developers) also use Linux. The vast majority of the company uses Windows.

    There are also a few hundred Macs.

    I have been considering getting our flavour of Linux installed on a VM or maybe even dual booting for testing.















  • Personally I don’t see anything wrong with that at all. Commenting even if you don’t have a vagina is absolutely not the same as speaking for everyone that does have one. In fact I haven’t found a single comment that speaks for anyone but themselves.

    If it’s absolutely critical that only people with a vagina comments, OP should probably have put the question on a gendered ask community instead of the main one.

    Some people just like to engage in the conversation about something they think is interesting even if it wasn’t explicitly asked for. It’s also interesting to compare delta-TP between genders.

    Telling people to die seems a bit extreme for such a non issue.
