DP has embedded, can be carried over USB-C, allowing for everything to be handled over a single cable, is handled on connector instead of device-internal interface allowing for smaller/thinner devices, DP daisy-chaining, licensing/royalty differences, etc.

You’ve reached lemmy.one!

Tailscale all the way.

ABSOLUTELY THIS. Same. I have to deal with Oracle and their Opera PMS platform which uses Weblogic, 19c, and a variety of other products and it makes me actively want to scream and light things on fire. If I can help it, you won’t catch me using another Oracle product if I can avoid it.

That’s the same response I always get. But once I show them how much easier it is, it’s so much easier. I can’t believe there was a time I didn’t use one.

A password manager is an absolute must, in my opinion! I use Bitwarden and love it.

I’ve used Pihole and Adguard. Liked them both, but ultimately went back to Pihole.

I have not, but I will! Thanks!

Unfortunately, I went back to less privacy-focused platforms. My wife and I rely heavily on shared calendars, reminders, tasks, desktop drive clients, and other groupware functionality. So we’re back with those Google bastards for now.

Like I said I really like the general concepts of Proton and was a paying user for over a year, but eventually we just had to move back to Google because of the lack of features.

If their offerings become more mature, then we’ll absolutely be looking at coming back!

I saw this the other evening and played it. Man, it went from 0-100 real quick. Really wild little game!

This is exactly my sentiment. I had an account with two mail users, custom domain, one VPN connection, etc. for a couple of years. It was nice but while ProtonMail is one of their most mature product, it still feels quite lacking compared to other offerings. And with every other product they have, things feel less and less thorough. I support their efforts, but don’t really want to pay for the way they’re doing it. I still keep an eye out though, because I think it has a lot of potential.

I’ll give a search on Duck Duck Go, and if I can’t find what I need then I’ll use Google.

But at this point I’m using Google Bard and ChatGPT more and more, at least at work.

This is really neat and will make explaining parts of the Fediverse to friends a lot easier. Thanks for sharing!

Finished up the work week. Chorin’ and errands yesterday, then ended the day with a social gather around our friends’ fire pit. This morning got the same group together for brunch. All in all a good weekend!

I also use Bitwarden both for passwords and TOTP. I secure it with password + Yubikey. Works well enough it seems! If I ever have any concerns I’ll move TOTP to Aegis in a heartbeat though.

Anecdotally, I have to say iPhone seems to have terrible battery life. My wife and several friends all have had the last few iPhones and they seem to be charging their phones all the time. At least every night but often during the day as well. My Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ was amazing. Like 1.5 days of battery. Then I got my Google Pixel 6 Pro and 7 Pro and it blew my mind. I go 2+ days on a charge no problem.

I suppose to be fair I use my phone more like I did my BlackBerry back in the day, whereas they all use TikTok and stuff fairly frequently.

I love the iPhone hardware. Especially the mini.

But I really don’t like iOS. Or the lightning connector.

Same thing with Macs.

Overall I think Apple makes gorgeous hardware but the software just isn’t for me.

I always tell people the best phone (or best one iPhone vs Android) is whatever is best for them.

My wife loves her iPhone and everything about it, and that’s okay!

I’ve really been wanting to learn Ansible but feel like I don’t have a huge reason to since I work administering a largely windows environment and have PowerShell scripts that do most what I need :/

That’s the boat I’m in, so to speak! If you know of any good sysadmin or IT related communities out here, I’d very much so appreciate some recommendations!
