DarraignTheSane,

It became easy to not open Infinity once I read they were going to start charging a subscription (something I don't fault them for, per se), and I uninstalled it.

Confession. I wrote a lot of fake stories on Reddit.

I think it's time for me to come clean about this. I kinda became addicted to Reddit, but most importantly, reddit stories. It became part of my routine to listen to podcasts that read reddit stories. NGL it's really enjoyable, but there is always some people that debates if the stories are true....

Difference between kbin and lemmy

Lately I often read about kbin.social being similar to lemmy but more accessible. So I created an account there to check it out. My experience so far is a little mixed. From kbin I can access all Lemmy posts, although I find the interface less intuitive to join new communities. So from the kbin side it feels like an other Lemmy...

DarraignTheSane,

On Lemmy, if a community on another server doesn't appear when you search for it, you can use the syntax "!communityname". Your login Lemmy server will then go out and index it and it will appear in the search a few moments later.

Is there a way to do that on kbin? I've tried every syntax for a Lemmy community that I know of and nothing seems to work.

!communityname
/c/communityname@server.name
server.name/c/communityname
@communityname
etc.

Duo vs Microsoft Authenticator (2023): In-depth comparison (www.techrepublic.com)

Duo uses push notifications, time-based, one-time passwords, physical tokens and biometrics to verify the identity of users at login. Similarly, Microsoft Authenticator uses push notifications, one-time passcodes, and biometrics for authentication and can integrate with Microsoft 365 and Azure Active Directory. While both 2FA...

DarraignTheSane,

Just curious as to what everyone's using for MFA in their environments. Duo? Microsoft Authenticator? Okta? A jumble of different solutions depending on which system needed to be covered at the time and with no additional budget?

DarraignTheSane, (edited )

Nothing. Literally, they just need to change nothing, to do... nothing. It is their actions that are driving people away. Today as of this moment, reddit is working the same as it's done for the past several years.

Then again, I'm defintely enjoying my time here on Lemmy much more than I was at this point on reddit. This feels more like the early days of reddit, where you have more meaningful engagements. You don't show up to a thread only to find 1,000+ comments, and likely one toward the top saying the exact same words you intended to say.

DarraignTheSane,

And that's only for the personal OneDrive service. Business accounts are "https://YourOrg-my.sharepoint.com" for OneDrive access.

Pat Robertson, broadcaster who helped make religion central to GOP politics, dies at 93 (apnews.com)

Pat Robertson, a religious broadcaster who turned a tiny Virginia station into the global Christian Broadcasting Network, tried a run for president and helped make religion central to Republican Party politics in America through his Christian Coalition, has died. He was 93....

I like this significantly better than Mastodon

My experience with the Fediverse has only been through Mastodon, through which I struggled to find a community I really gelled with. Either it was supper overwhelming with meme posts or NSFW, or it was too chill to the point of nothing. Or, it was hyperfocused like FOSS/Linux and became uninteresting after awhile. May try again,...

DarraignTheSane,

Well yeah, Lemmy is to Reddit what Mastodon is to Twitter. Never cared for Twitter pre or post-Elon.

DarraignTheSane,

Yep, you've made it to Lemmy. The lemmy.ml server, specifically.

DarraignTheSane,

All of the main servers I've seen have a no porn rule. I suppose it's only a matter of time until someone's willing to stand up their own Lemmy porn server and take on the responsibility of moderating that.

DarraignTheSane,

Yeah that'd be smart on their part. They're already paying for the server space and the moderation team.

DarraignTheSane,

I started playing Firmament a bit before I saw this news yesterday. I figured the mysteriousness would unfold bit by bit as the game progressed as we're used to with Cyan games, but now it seems it might just be a hodge-podge mess of AI written material. Oh well, the puzzles have been fun and engaging and I'll probably keep playing.

DarraignTheSane,

Well it can be a good idea... if you're looking to move on to those other options I mentioned (specialize, management, or goat farm). If you want to stay in the sysadmin space, I guess I'd still recommend automating, but with caution.

Calling all /r/sysadmin reddit refugees!

I setup (took over and spruced up, to be precise) this community specifically because of the time I've spent over the years browsing and relying on reddit.com/r/sysadmin for sources of information on tips/tricks, security exploits & patches, outages, and yes even the ranting about how our jobs all suck. (I like mine, for what...

DarraignTheSane,

If you have interesting read-worthy news articles, I'd encourage you to post them. I've been pursuing some Linux news sites but don't know what's of interest to everyone. Also, Lemmy is a community and I don't intend to be a one-man show. 😁

DarraignTheSane,

Feel free to use this space for networking related posts as well. Not all of us have the fortune of being able to wear a single hat, and I know I'm just as interested in networking news & discussion as anything else in the IT space.

DarraignTheSane,

Yeah I figure no need to discriminate at this point, anyone in the field of administering any IT systems is welcome here. If Lemmy really takes off and sometime down the road there seems a need for it we might establish rules for what's appropriate to post here vs. other tech subs, but I don't see the need for that now.
