Well, if you’re doing static assignments because there’s no DHCP, then it makes sense to not use the DHCP range.

I would consult the documentation for what exactly it means by a request for “next available IP”.

I feel like if you want addresses assigned from DHCP, just use DHCP.

PDQ Deploy is pretty highly recommended.

Hmm. I’m not sure what the advantage would be over just creating communities on existing instances, then, if someone else is still going to be the admin.

Sure. What’s your plan for moderating content like piracy, death threats, CSAM, and terrorism?

That’s during group policy application, isn’t it? Run an rsop report against that PC and see if anything sticks out.

Also enable verbose logon messages to see if there’s a particular step it gets hung on.

And if you’re moving to W11, if you haven’t already, you should install the ADMX templates: https://www.anoopcnair.com/administrative-templates-for-windows-11-22h2/

But you should know that MS, in typical fashion, does not make the W11 ADMX templates compatible with W10. You’ll probably be fine managing both with just the W11 templates unless you’re doing some really specialized stuff. Just something to keep in mind.

But that’s a specific term referring to legal culpability for the individuals running a company, not for merely identifying the people in a company.

I haven’t done imaging for a few years now, but it used to be that you needed at least one volume license for imaging rights. (The license center only allows you to buy five licenses, but you can do one VL and four of the cheapest thing you can find.) I think you should be able to use the builtin OEM licenses for activation.

Personally, I wouldn’t bother messing with custom images, unless there’s a particular setup you want them all to have right away. I’d just use a plain image and script everything else. I’d use WDS if you want to use the full Windows stack, or FOG if you prefer.

I don’t see that any info on the CVE or the patch has been published, so unless they’re a distro maintainer leaking info, they’re talking out their ass.

Assuming that the account mentioned in the linked dev update post is the one that commented underneath it, you can see it for yourself. Go to the dev update post, go to the account page, and scroll back through the comments until you see the ones OP is talking about.

I am against the L4s bot, because it posts a lot of non-technology news. Twitter changing its rules is not news, let alone technology news.

Right, but going by the account that commented under the dev post, the first is the one we’re talking about. The second account exists, but hasn’t made any posts or comments at all.

Lemmy has separate usernames and display names.

The account is not an hour old. You can click through the links and see for yourself that it’s the same account.

I’m not aware of any on-prem solution that will automatically resize if it needs more space. You could set it up to expand if it hits some low disk space threshold. But if your use case is users randomly sending giant files, consider cloud storage.

Actually, you might be able to do some kind of object storage on-prem, Ceph or something. Personally I would get some enterprise storage, like a full SAN.

Create a 2tb virtual disk, whatever that means on your platform, and attach it to the VM. Growing a qcow2 image is trivial (qemu-img resize disk.qcow2 +10G). Yes, you will also have to grow the partition inside the VM, but that’s always going to be true and should also be trivial.

Oh that reminds me, Voat happened. It wasn’t a code fork but a clone, and it was also filled with right-wing garbage.

Tildes is still around too, but I think it’s got even less traction than lemmy.

Did anyone do that with reddit? It used to be open source too.

Right. Discord is IRC-like, but all of the “servers” are just a logical separation within Discord.
