@scottalanmiller I'm excited too; but wonder if I can hackintosh a pi??
Different hardware. ARM64 isn't ARM64. It's similar at a high level, but actually nothing alike. The CPU isn't the same architecture, the GPU is nothing alike, etc. The M1 is a completely unique chip.

That's what I meant to say
Meaning... all ARM64 isn't the same.

It's the end of day 1 and no major issues, the Sonata Switchboard not giving us the refreshed status is the only REAL issue, and it's definitely a PITA for us and our workflows, though beyond that - we had a good first day!
-
Santa Switchboard? Is that where the reindeer call in?

Hush you

wondering, . . . . when should I have lunch?

@siringo you've had it already.

Having an interesting conversation with our company president on lan-less design concept for future "networks" within the offices (or lack there of as we are discussing)

that's an interesting idea, but you'd a network of some description otherwise you'd never be able to access resources. interested to hear more.

You don't, actually. There's no need for there to be a "network" of any description, the idea of local LAN based resources is very much an artefact of history. Tons of companies are just natively LAN-less and there's nothing to even consider. It's only being LAN-based and having existing infrastructure to remove that tends to make it feel like there are needed services from it. Start without one, and you'll struggle to figure out what role they are even assumed to play.

you need a connection to the internet sure... but that's really all.
So imagine someone like Dropbox not caring about the local network- it's just basically a GIANT Starbucks open network. They just provide a connection to the internet, likely driven by DHCP.
You secure data by requiring connection level security to the resources themselves.

Working on a band recording project price estimate.

@scottalanmiller Exactly. President and I are discussing removing existing infrastructure because we have all these physical offices that now are essentially unoccupied. What do we need at each office network wide if nobody's there much? He likes the cost savings going lan less would bring
-
@jt1001001 so a question for everyone who is a proponent of lan-less (office-less) do you compensate employees for using their home as work space?

On that note, if I'm not going to be issued a laptop by my new company, I think I'm going to ask for a Windows license for running a VM, if I'm unable to do what needs to be done on my Fedora laptop.
-
@DustinB3403 that is part of what he is analyzing. We used to compensate employees for home Internet circuits if they were classified as remote teleworkers but that was years ago.

Our biggest Vendor is having a huge Outage today! yay...

I don't understand this?
If people return to the office - they will still need a network to connect to. So what exactly are you removing?

Nope, part of that compensation if you need a push back is - you aren't spending gas money driving to work anymore - and if you're not on video calls, you don't need a professional wardrobe... not a huge savings, but likely noticeable in most households.
