DDOS against a little self hosted instance isn’t really a concern I’d have. I’d be more concerned with the scraping of private information, ransomware, password compromises, things of that nature. If you keep your edge devices on the latest security patches and you are cognizant on what you are exposing and how, you’ll be fine.
No worries. Synology are so fickle, good luck.
My indexer is garbage for FLAC. Got any suggestions?
Disrespectful, no. Annoying af on a personal level, yes. If I email, it’s because I have time for that not your stupid rambling stories, I want a paper trail, and I don’t want to deal with people in conversation. I blatantly do not answer calls at work when I am emailing someone and if they ask if they can call, I tell them no and to please use email.
I can understand them calling in your case. I wouldn’t like it, but sometimes it’s just faster to talk things out. So long as you don’t get a rambler.
My most immature take on that whole thing is that I wish we could evacuate all the people and then nuke the everloving shit out of the land to make it uninhabitable for a few hundred years. Then let it be a weapons testing site for the world. Just take the whole fucking thing off the board.
Like I said, immature take.
I’ve been tangentially connected to that area for the better part of 20 years now. Nothing has changed for the better, Israel is worse than ever, Hamas is worse than ever. The assholes that dumped the jews there post ww2 did the whole world a disservice. That country should be Palestine, not Israel, but neither side behaves the way they should. So it’s damn near moot at this point.
Don’t listen to macho guys that say you can’t be a man if you do x/y/z. An emotionally mature and available man can enjoy anything he likes because he is secure in how he feels. When you are on the other side of things you’ll look at those macho types and see their machismo as bravado to cover what can only amount to insecurities. They are sad cases honestly and I feel pity for their situation.
Go do something that would make you emotionally uncomfortable and let yourself feel every bit of that discomfort.
Basically it takes practice and stopping yourself from stopping yourself. Putting yourself in situations to feel and then sitting with the feeling instead of running from it. Contemplate it, think about it, let it be part of you.
And if you can, find a friend that’s emotional aware and available as a role model to emulate.
For your kids, let them feel their feelings and do your best to not invalidate those feelings. Feelings are valid, it’s how we handle them that makes or breaks us. It’s fine to feel anger and sadness just as it’s fine to feel happiness and joy, but we don’t lash out in anger, and we don’t let our sadness wash us away.
I had a big long thing typed out, but I erased a lot and I think this is the core of it.
A lot of that comes down to training. Not every product can be boiled down to phone app simplicity. I mean that being said though, I do think Sharepoint could use a much clearer interface overall. I think MS is working on the consistency part but with so many moving parts it feels chaotic at times. But I’ve seen things becoming clearer and more cohesive over the last few years. It’s still light years ahead of a platform like GCP though. That thing is a nightmare in digital.
See in the case of those people their workflow wasn’t taken into consideration before adoption. It’s definitely not a fit for everyone. But that amount of paper waste is insane. If the docs are already digital, then the signatures and stamps should be digital as well. If the docs are all hardcopies, then sharepoint shouldn’t have been used except as an upload point.
A lot of your frustrations are stemming from your M365 environment being misconfigured. While all that is possible behavior, in a well-configured environment it makes sense and works well. It sounds like many of the features that are open there should in reality be restricted in order to allow a better user experience as much of that function is unneeded by your particular group.
OneDrive is for personal files you occasionally want to collab on. Sharepoint is for collaborative files you want occasionally restrict. They have opposite purposes and are tooled around those purposes.
Both are sitting on the same hardware and have very similar underpinnings, but their front ends serve two distinct purposes.
Sharepoint is actually very well made. It has great versatility and extensibility. The issue that you and others run into that leads to the assumption that sharepoint is bad, is that it was deployed by inexperienced or potentially incompetent people. Most of the time it’s just inexperienced people that aren’t given the time to properly train for a deployment and are told to basically wing it because “there’s no money to train you how to do it right” or other bs cheapskate business excuse.
The problem is that your files are in OneDrive instead of SharePoint. OneDrive is for personal files that you occasionally want to collab with others on. SharePoint is for collaborative files that you occasionally want to restrict.
One is meant to be closed most of the time, the other open most of the time. And the way sharing and other features work within the tends to reflect that charactistic.
Your team files need to be in a SharePoint library. It is possible to have a direct link in the file explorer to the SharePoint files and run everything as if it is a local file server. MS is seemingly trying to move away from that and keeping the browser open to the document library has mostly the same functionality with some minorly different steps.
But it sounds to me like your IT dept doesn’t have enough experience with M365 to know how to handle this properly.
1.yes
2.yes
3.keep calm and lemmy on.
About 13 years. I’ve been wanting to leave to something else for some time. Dropped it once lemmy became viable for me to stay. I have popped back on for a minute or two here and there. But it’s just becoming increasingly foreign and unpalatable. The more they change it, the less interest I have in ever looking at it again.
I love his videos.
Right, I guess the progress just feels like it’s not happening since I’m boiling alive on the daily. I just hope it’s enough that the next generation won’t have to suffer for the ignorance and greed that’s brought this about.
Interestingly though it could also but drastically cut by changing the diet of the animals. I was reading somewhat recently about how the addition of seaweed to the cattle feed culled nearly all methane emissions from the cattle. There is still the need to address the transport and humanity of the process involved, but the cow emissions are iirc a large part of that %.
I’m a bit surprised but honestly didn’t know. Seems like something that could maybe be a rider to a more impactful focus. Like if there was to be meaningful legislation on power production emissions regulations they could maybe tack on some regulation about private air travel. But yeah, that wasn’t a great option to pick at.
I really just want to see us consider other things besides only things that as an individual, my participation is miniscually helpful. I do what I can, we try to live conscientiously, but I’m tired of being told to give up more when the biggest offenders have done nothing.
I’m all for doing all of it. I am just making a statement that I am tired of it all being put on those of us with the least overall impact for the extensive amount of cooperative effort it takes.
