Nonsense, MS has an Intune client for Linux.

I know, I have used it. But it does not enforce any policies. Just tells you if you are compliant or not.

Too bad. Skill issue. They need to learn how to manage Linux just like any other new tech.

And that's my point. They could do it. Some do. But most companies, in my country at least, pick the easy solution, which is to not support Linux.

I think the problem with Linux in the workplace is that it's hard (read harder than Windows and MacOS) to setup to be managed devices. Especially if the company is a Microsoft shop to begin with. The IT security teams just don't know how to enforce the company policies on Linux machines. Enforce password policy, network credentials and managed apps. It easy with Intune for Windows and Mac. Much harder on Linux.

That's the reason I was given by my work place, when I was "forced" to switch from Linux to Windows.

There is also Nextcloud Talk, but it can be a bit overwhelming to set up (needs the high-performance backend for video and stuff). But, it's entirely self-hosted and has no user cap as far as I am aware.

I'd check with other USB ports then. If the receiver is not even detected, it's often a defective USB port.

What DE you like is very much dependant on your work flow and how well you can adjust to changes.

Personally, I love KDE Plasma. It's the right amount of "bling", bells, whistles, aestetic and settings for me. Gnome feels way to "simple" and XFCE feels reliable but old.

For me, the DE is often more important than the base underneath, but I do like my rolling release. :)

They started doing that in a couple of years back. Saw quite a bit of backlash in the Linux news media at the time.

I don't replace anything. I just install what I need from the beginning.

And yes, I run Arch btw. :D

Already in the AUR as otf-suse and ttf-suse. :)

Syncthing is not a public sharing tool, it’s for your own devices. Perhaps you are trying to fit it to a scenario it’s not made for.

there are issues with the software we’re using that can only be remedied by massive changes or a complete rewrite.

I think this was the main reason for the Wayland project. So many issues with Xorg that it made more sense to start over, instead of trying to fix it in Xorg.

The difference, as I understand it, is that Hyprland is not a DE, it's a Windows Manager. So it should be compared with the likes of Sway, i3 and Awesome.

What if your app actually needs access to the internet?

Hi all.

Happy KDE Plasma user for a long time and I generally love the desktop experience. But I do have one small issue.

At work, I have 2x 4K displays. connected through a Dock. But in Plasma it's only able to give me around 1080p resolution on both of them. In contrast, the display manager SDDM and TTY displays 4k on each fine.

So am I missing a trick to get the max resolution in Plasma? My install is Arch Linux, kernel 6.4.12, Plasma 5.27, Wayland session.

I did install the displaylink AUR package, as I thought it might be the dock limiting the video output, but it isn't as TTY and SDDM seems to display it correctly.

Happy to hear any thoughts and any ideas. :)

EDIT: The screens turn on and work fine with 4K resolutions in a Plasma X11 session.

I posted the other day that you can clean up your object storage from CSAM using my AI-based tool. Many people expressed the wish to use it on their local file storage-based pict-rs. So I've just extended its functionality to allow exactly that.

The new lemmy_safety_local_storage.py will go through your pict-rs volume in the filesystem and scan each image for CSAM, and delete it. The requirements are

  • A linux account with read-write access to the volume files
  • A private key authentication for that account

As my main instance is using object storage, my testing is limited to my dev instance, and there it all looks OK to me. But do run it with --dry_run if you're worried. You can delete lemmy_safety.db and rerun to enforce the delete after (method to utilize the --dry_run results coming soon)

PS: if you were using the object storage cleanup, that script has been renamed to lemmy_safety_object_storage.py
