    because smart phones have been out since the early 2000's

    iPhone was released in 2007

    I got my smart phone in 2006 and most people I worked with had had them for years at that point.

    People had blackberry and palmOS devices, I did also.

    But the smartphone was not mass market until after the original iPhone.

    @IRJ said in Steam Deck - The Linux mobile hardware and OS we have always wanted:

    My first thought was why KDE as well. In reality though, no desktop environment is a perfect fit.

    Oh for sure. My first hunch would have been to stick with the default that everyone already knows and uses or to go with Deepin because it is so modern and slick.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm a fan of KDE and like what they do. It's good to see them keeping a presence in such an important and large scale device.

    @Romo will be proud as he's a KDE user.

    Much of the point of the physical card is to make a mental pathway in the human, not the phone, which builds a memory and enforces the connection. That's why we use paper, the way it interacts with the person.

    Paper cards can always have all the info you want AND a QR code to allow for the digital transfer in a more universal way. That digital card isn't going to work with a laptop very likely. I have no idea how they work, as I've never had someone attempt to use one. If my phone is dead or not on me, it's useless. If my phone doesn't have your app, it's useless (I presume.) If I don't have the right kind of phone, I'm annoyed that you made me keep trying something you've not tested. Paper is universal and works.

    Also, not me, but I know a lot of people who use paper cards as little note cards to write additional info on. Can't do that with the digital.

    If the question is "Can Israeli quasi-government hacking agencies get your data if necessary", then no. But it was never secure at all.

    LOL - Not sure where the Israeli quasi thing came from - but thanks for the laugh.

    The world's most advanced hacking toolsets are made by arm's length government contractors in Israel. That's where that tech is currently made pretty much regardless of which governments are using it.

    @JaredBusch said in Live migration Proxmox?:

    @Pete-S That is what the docs say. I have never tried.

    But also, why not have everything in the cluster? What is the need to make them "individual" hosts?

    Pools (resource pools) as they are called in xenserver/xcp-ng will put at lot of restrictions on the hosts.

    Pools are managed as one entity (through the pool master) and works best when you have shared storage.

    They are however a huge hassle when you don't have shared storage. So hosts that use local storage and are individual are best kept as separate hosts. So in this case everything started out as pools but have been migrated to individual hosts.

    Maybe it works differently in Proxmox, I've only used it in the lab on a single host.

    I manage multiple servers through the single IP of the cluster, but you can still directly access the individual nodes if you desire.

    I do not know about resource pools and such as I have not used those with Proxmox yet. Just multiple servers in a cluster, but no shared resources more than a setup for replication at one place. But that one is only for replication, so not a good example.

    @scottalanmiller said in TP-link business switches?:

    Yes, that's what I'm talking about. It's free and they host it for you. We've been using it for a few years. It's really quite nice. It's different than Unifi, which I can't explain. But it does a good job.

    I've been using UNMS since it came out. They rebranded it to UISP a couple years ago. I had no idea, or forgot, that they had a free hosted version of it.

    Yeah free hosted version as long as you have 5+ devices attached to it.

    And they aren't very serious about the limits. If you are a vendor, you'll have enough to do it for free easily.

    I almost have enough devices with just my personal stuff!

    Exactly, it's not hard. Especially when the simplest devices count. Buy a couple for your lab and voila.

    @JaredBusch said in AP's geared toward home use?:

    For home use, not being setup like a business, you use the mesh router setups on the market today.

    From Ubiquiti, it is the AMPLIFI line

    From TP-LINK it is called Deco

    Home users should never have business gear setup unless they are a hobbyist or something.

    I’ve got an amplifi and my mom has a deco. Both work really well and can easily be managed from the app. This is pretty much what I recommend to people now.

    Why is Sally accessing this service from a non work computer at 3 am her time with a chinese IP address? Sure this request has the password but that doesn't sound valid.

    Which means you can automatically perform additional validation with MFA, or straight up deny access.

    There's a lot of options really. You can only allow access to certain systems and/or services via company devices enrolled in MDM, with up to date OS, encryption, and endpoint protection. You can verify endpoints and users with passwordless auth via Beyond Identity and in certain cases use additional MFA via Duo or whatever you want to set up.

    Sally is trying to log in to her company email. She's authenticated via passwordless auth via Beyond Identity on her work computer. Her work computer passes the health check seamlessly through BYID and allows her to access her email. Maybe she's also prompted for MFA always, or maybe only if she's logging in outside her normal geographic area on her work computer. Maybe (e.g. email) access is denied totally if from a non-company device. Options...

    Just to make it clear, I'm using rclone sync to do the job on a headless Ubuntu container.

    Revisiting this now two years later, as it's been that long since I last synchronized my personal OneDrive photo and video archives to Wasabi.

    Most everything is great, except when doing a few --dry-run tests on some already-synchronized source/destination remotes, I noticed a few thousand files in total among several OneDrive archives result in a potential re-sync. Not a huge deal, except it's a slow process to sync.

    The files themself didn't change. I verified from both the source and backup that the CRC is the same on a bunch of to-be re-synced files, but perhaps the modification time changed at the source due to other syncs or who knows.

    I would like to force RClone to use checksum only when synchronizing. Is that possible with an rclone sync between OneDrive and Wasabi?

    Maybe Alpine linux would be a good fit. I haven't used it as is though. Just know it has a small footprint, uses busybox which is a favorite for embedded systems and Alpine is also popular for container use.

    Ubuntu fits on a stick and is well known. I'd just stick to that because it is easy and has loads of tools.

    Well in theory you can block the attempted connection earlier, like with IP blocking, but typically that doesn't get you that far. Does the controller need to be on the internet and exposed?
