Some of my users including myself too. Create a Mozilla and Google account and we just use our own work email address when signing up.

You could set up a task scheduler to backup up the Firefox/Chrome and Signatures.

Good idea for a few users (I sign into Firefox with my work account to back up my bookmarks related to work). But I'm looking at this for hundreds of users; possibly thousands.

I guess you can provide them a script that they have to run manually to backup bookmarks and signatures to a shared drive.

Goal is to automate, doing things manual introduces too much human error.

I totally agree with the manual approach can cause too much human error.

Looks like Google Chrome has an option to set user data directory by using --user-data-dir command line flag. There is an option when using Chrome Policy templates to set directory too.

From one the episodes on The Orville.

Topa: what is a relationship?
Bortus: it is what comes before the egg.

Lol.
The whole scene was good.

Bortus is my favorite character so far.

They should call it "Windows 11".

"The real Windows 10"

It feels weird using PS to ssh into a Fedora VM.

You can ssh from cmd too.

I wonder if RHEL 8 is still planning on defaulting to Wayland when its release.

Hard to say, but I'm feeling like it is unlikely.

RHEL 7.5 offers tech preview of Wayland.

RHEL 8 on Workstation is expecting to use Wayland session by default.
https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=RHEL-8-More-Alpha-Signs

Definitely, a possibility or they could do what Canonical did with Ubuntu 18.04 and default to Xorg with an option to use Wayland session.

Had a positive Zoom Meeting with a coworker demoing Snipe-IT. Currently each campus location is require to maintain an inventory of student laptops using a spreadsheet and then submitted each month to him. I hope this works out, because I can't stand using spreadsheets for inventory.

Not sure which one but you need these repo enabled.

@jaredbusch said in [Poor VPN performance]

No. OpenVPN is not able to be offloaded. So throughput with OpenVPN is always a CPU issue.

The device does not matter. EdgeRouter, ASUS, or anything else.

The best way to get OpenVPN at high speed is pfSense on a desktop or something.

Yeah that's what I'm seeing from other forums. Basic routers are just a no go.

I would definitely use pfsense or opnsense for OpenVPN.

You could also setup a small VM and use VyOS.

Locked myself out of my office!!

FML

House keys, car keys...

Extensions (Active ones only):
Coverflow alt-tab (Gives me a better visual)
Dash to dock (I like having my dock setup like Ubuntu Unity/Gnome)
Pomodoro (Helps me to stay focus)
Topicons (This is needed so I can see Nextcloud notifications)
Sound Input & Output Device Chooser

Virtualization:
KVM with Virtual Machine Manager (virt-manager) and libguestfs-tools-c.

Other Repo:
RPMFusion

opera
vivalidi

Other packages:
Remmina (Mainly used for remoting into Windows computers)

I use symbolic links in my home profile to point to the directories that are in Nextcloud.
rsync scripts to do daily, weekly and monthly backups of my profile directory and other directories.

I’m guessing qcow2 is the reason for the 16TB?

I've moved over to XCP-NG, anyone else using this as well yet? Ive tried and used Hyper V, I'm just not a fan of it tbh compared to xenserver/XCP-NG

Just took a typing test for the first time in 6 years.
To my surprise, I type fairly quickly.
First test I got 68 with 20 errors (Warm up.)
next I got 65 with 7 errors.
I'm impressed with my self (we're slow this monday and I was just trying to pass sometime and look busy.

I hate these types of tests. I want to know my WPM typing an email or some other document. Better yet, take my WPM from a heated chat. I'm never reading something and typing it back verbatim.

More realistic for me, test my shell command typing!

That's not fair, you have tab-completion to help with the typing.

Ok then sonny, let me introduce you to IRIX in the mid 90s, and Linux in the early 00s. You don't know how good you have it today!

Also, get off my lawn

:smiling_face_with_open_mouth_smiling_eyes: You can keep those "Back in my days" speech to yourself.

I actually do something like that for my users but we are using Nextcloud instead.

I'm on season 3 of the 100 and all I can say is this is not what I expected when I watched the Pilot episode.
Safe to say I'm hooked.

It's a surprisingly good series. I thought it was going to mostly be teen drama BS. Turns out it's a mostly compelling Science fiction story.

Throughout the series, some of those characters made me want to...
