Corpos have been transitioned to Azure AD if not outright to Windows 365 DaaS.
Large corpos get a nonstandard build, and they pay big $$$ for it.
Governments run Azure AD on the "Sovereign" Govt cloud. "With 100% guaranteed TS/SCI certified sysadmins" lol no.
Mil installations get a nonstandard build allowing them to log in via the CAC

how do you feel about the HD660S2 vs 490 PRO? Considering buying one of them. To me the biggest weakness of the 600/650 is the imaging, so I'm curious if the S2's are markedly better

>>the poorfag copers at r/headphones who think anything above $500 is snake oil
Right? It's insane to me. So many people think all you need is a pair of HD560s which cost 150 or 200 bucks and slap on a Harman EQ preset (made by the likes of Oratory et al) and along with a $100 chinese SMSL DAC/Amp that Amir from ASR said it's completely transparent and high SINAD, they've achieved hifi endgame.
Everything else is either worse or snake oil. For them, detail doesn't exist, stage doesn't exist, transient speed doesn't exist, transducer types don't matter...

>Le window manager with a Waybar shell!!
They made five for Niri and not a single one allows you to adjust drawing tablet sensitivity without having to edit a .txt config (WMs don't come with text editors preinstalled and you have to manually set file extension associations)


I've tried them all, I've even tried ReactOS, yet I keep coming back to KDE Plasma, it is ergonomic, it is lightweight as fuck, it is so customizable I gave up on it halfway through because I couldn't decide how I wanted my desktop to look, it has proper fractional Wayland scaling support, it is the most mature with HDR thus far through Kwin, you can turn it into a tiling window manager with one script, how did the Germans do this? Is this the best desktop GUI in the history of desktop GUIs?

What if
Have 2 blacklists, 1 for invites and 1 for posting, then do tree bans (everyone under the banned inviter gets invite rights taken away).
>>
I like how there's no obvious page/thread/post limit. It's bound only by the area and zoom.
Interesting implication, that an instance could theoretically last a long time and contain every post without pruning. Like some text and imageboards do but using coordinates rather than page numbers.

You could probably synthesize both too. Like create logic that maps an analog of page numbers to something like a zone on the map so that people could click some anchor/link like "gamer zone" instead of "page 2" and it would jump to a cluster of game related threads that were placed near each other.
>>
>>106872270
I think that's too lenient. The other way around of banning the person who invited those too makes people more careful of who they invite.
>>
>>106872236
>prevent abuse
You can't.
Every social media platform on earth has been trying to solve that problem and they can't do it.
Every person is capable of abuse, and allowing them in despite that is the entire objective of a public social network; because the benefit of their presence exceeds the risk that they might say the N word or post illegal content.

Most social networks just pay jannies to deal with it because the normal users should far exceed users who are bad for the platform.
4chan has jannies do it for free.

An especially enlightened approach would be to admit that the best moderator is no moderator, and allow users to moderate themselves. This however, would not fly under a centralized social network because there needs to be a way to remove illegal content.

Under a decentralized model, every user is responsible for receiving and distributing their own content.
Don't like what someone else is saying? Stop reading it and stop sharing it.
Post something illegal? Your problem, not anyone elses.
This has some unfortunate drawbacks. Decentralized social networks cannot scale globally.

If it's on sale at worstbuy it's sometimes good to buy it there. For example, Seagate external drives are often the cheapest there.
Another thing I've used it for is "refurbished" SATA SSD drives. I have no idea what the fuck they do with them, but they only have a few hours of operation on them, and they're cheap.
The ones with a Magnolia AV room are OK.

TLDR Bestbuy is called Worstbuy for a reason, and it should just go die like Circuit City.

https://wiki.installgentoo.com/wiki/Home_server/Case_guide

/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualisation. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

>What software should I run?
Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavour of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

>Why should I have a home server?
/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.
