Has anyone tried the new Resilio Sync 3?
  • exu exu 8h ago 100%

    I only used it to download certain Star Wars versions, because these nice gentlemen couldn't be bothered to use real torrents.

    No idea how you would use that as a Syncthing replacement though.

    Even Mixtral is somewhat censored as they, like many others, used ChatGPT to generate question/answer pairs for the instruct finetuning.

    There are finetunes that remove this censoring again like dolphin.

    I was concerned when I saw Lunduke report on finding out Drew (very likely) hosts the Stallman report. (All while alluding to previous ""attacks"" on Hyprland and NixOS)

    Of course DistroTube has to make an even worse video about it.

    It's definitely more enterprise focused, but it's using Linux, so there's no reason why any old hardware couldn't work.

    The enterprise focus might make it easier for those coming from VMware in any case.

    I will disagree with him on toots for Mastodon. It's just a great.

    If you want something more appliance-like, XCP-ng is a very good option. The GUI of Xen Orchestra is also closer to vCenter in my opinion and should be easier to navigate than Proxmox.

    This does not scale. I have 400 logins in my Bitwarden account right now.

    You understood correctly. Seems like I missed some news on the syncing front.

    Do you add separate keys on every device?
    If you do, how long does it take you to add a new device?

    A sufficiently strong password and additional TOTP should protect you well enough.

    I'm thinking of phone recovery, where you're trying to get all your stuff back on a new device.
    With a password manager, simply logging in will get you there and until passkeys can be synced automatically just like passwords this will need to be handled somehow.

    Good incentive for the provider to fix it or go out of business.

    QR codes are good 50% of the time; when you're trying to log in on a pc.
    The reverse case is extremely annoying

    I remain hopeful. Initially, when Keypass wanted to include a simple export option there was talk of banning them from using Passkeys.

    Still, it makes adding new devices much more of a hassle.

    Good, certificates should be automated anyways. Much more reliable than the once yearly outages because nobody renewed the thing or forgot some systems.

    It finally happened...
  • exu exu 6d ago 100%

    Until recently I kept (most of) my initial setup and config files in a repo with some hacky bash scripts.

    Until recently because I finally replaced the bash mess with Ansible and it's so much better.

    Currently on holiday in Croatia; beautiful country etc etc, but what the hell is wrong with your drivers? Outside of cities it feels like the only speeds known to mankind are 90km/h for one lane roads and 130km/h for those with two or more. A speed limit of 80 or 100 on a highway? Completely ignored, unless it's a tunnel, then 100 is ok. Some section of road outside of a city says 70, 60 or 50? Ignored, just drive through with 90. Beautiful two-lane road (D424) from A1 to Zadar with a limit of 80, me doing 90 because that's OK somehow and most other cars overtake me with 20 km/h more at least. So, what is wrong with your drivers?

    I bought the physical rulebook and already owned the PDF, so I'm giving away the code. Here's the link: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/index.php?discount=FLBXDUUC0N1V

    Just a quick fyi for anyone using Intune to distribute firewall rules with the "Endpoint Protection > Windows Firewall" profile for the first time. Any rules you set won't be visible in the `wf.msc` GUI or using PowerShell's `Get-NetFirewallRule`. The only place you can see those rules is the registry under this key ``` HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\Mdm\FirewallRules ```

    I know ***where Linux***, but this was too good not to share. Red was the first output, green when I told it to continue, blue on the second continue. It really didn't want to talk about Microsoft. Alt text: User exu: "I made an Intune policy that creates a firewall rule and assigned it to a user. Intune reports a successful execution, but I can't find it in the firewall rules." Bot Judy response 1: "Ugh, typical Microsoft shit. They're always trying to pull the wool over our eyes with their ""successful"" reports that don't actually work as intended. Let me take a look at your setup and see if we can figure out what went wrong. It might just need some manual intervention." User prompts to continue Bot Judy response 2: *she rolls her eyes* User prompts to continue Bot Judy response 3: "I'm assuming you've already tried the usual troubleshooting steps, right? Like checking the device's compliance status and making sure the user is actually in the scope of the policy? If not, let's start there."
