@RojoLoco Really, I'm a blank slate, so I'd like to start with CentOS; however, that's not an option in my environtment right now (keep in mind there is no technical limitation here).

In what room are we meeting?

Listening to New Music Friday on Spotify and being disappointed as usual.

When does having SAN make sense?

On PTO, so I can do my annual recording gig of recording my district's Large Group Performance Evaluation event for middle school bands.

Is there a plan B in the works in case physically attending isn't possible? I know the WSL Conf managed to pull off most of their conference via webinar-like sessions.

Trying to stay focused on my tasks -- too excited about home lab possibilities.

I know of an opening for a generalist position (aren't we all generalists in the SMB? :smiling_face_with_smiling_eyes: ) in Norcross, GA. If you'd like more details, post here, and I'll message you, else send me a message.

Price shop for purchasing a server for my lab.

As time permits, I'm interested in some side projects; however, if you're looking for "cheap" IT labor, you probably won't find much on Mangolassi. I think it's fair to say we're more interested in good and right rather than cheap.

Price shop for a Dell r710 server f0 r3@lz! Too many tasks appeared to do this last weekend.

Yep. Looks like 9/24 is the day: https://wiki.centos.org/About/Building_8

@Danp xByte on Scott's suggestion, Ebay, and looking to see who else is involved with selling old servers.

US govt updates O365 security best practices

https://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/alerts/aa20-120a

Summary

CISA encourages organizations to implement an organizational cloud strategy to protect their infrastructure assets by defending against attacks related to their O365 transition and better securing O365 services.

Specifically, CISA recommends that administrators implement the following mitigations and best practices:

• Use multi-factor authentication. This is the best mitigation technique to protect against credential theft for O365 administrators and users.
• Protect Global Admins from compromise and use the principle of “Least Privilege.”
• Enable unified audit logging in the Security and Compliance Center.
• Enable Alerting capabilities.
• Integrate with organizational SIEM solutions.
• Disable legacy email protocols, if not required, or limit their use to specific users.

They all read as common sense to me

Just sent some E-mails to Xbyte, ServerMonkey, and Stallard to get quotes on potential Dell R710 addition to my lab.

Maybe this will help push OBS devs to make their app work natively with Wayland

@thanksajdotcom I'm happy I was able to find something, for it greatly helps the user + exec on a call that's happening in an hour; however, I can't help but take a step back and say "damn, do you realize what you're requesting?"

I wonder how much they will get the latency down to. I know they are advertising 50-100Mb/s and 20-40ms latency on their Beta program now.

I just want service in Georgia (United States).

About to record a middle school band concert.
