Really? I can run IE 6 apps on Linux? I can read CIsco SecureEmail emails on Linux? I can get a decent email client with calandar functionality compatible with MS Exchange on Linux? I can set GPO for HIPPA compliance like banning printing on a OU folder on Linux? I can deploy applications with SCCM on Linux?
I have Symantec Disk Encryption compability on Linux?
I have numerous issues created by just 3 months on Celexia. I am changed, asexual, and developed drinking and financial problems that were not present before medication. Also I have been off the meds for 4 months I may add and will never know if I will return to my normal self again.
There is a whole site called survingantideppressents.com
I had mild depression and bad OCD and other issues like fatigue or rather narcolepsy. After a bad breakup with an exgf and stuck in a job I was not too found of a doctor prescribed me Celexia or Citaprolom.
My genitals became numb within 72 hours. I was told it takes a few weeks don't worry side effects. So I continued. I became forgetful at work and couldn't remember simple things. I started drinking and spending thousands on my credit card. I quit excersizing and developed heart issues.
Worse my sex drive completely vanished. I mean months after taking it! Zero interest in sex now!! Gone. I became also boderline trans and started having bad gender dysphoria after month 3. That scared the shit out of me and I wanted to stop asap. But that is where the fun just started.:-)
Quiting an SSRI is like quiting crack or alcohol. My brain was so dependent on it that I needed the drug to function. I was turning into someone I did not recognize but had to stay on it and taper slowly. It took 3 weeks to taper off and I had nightmares, brain zaps, sickness, paranoia, and missed work and almost got fired. Going off it brought major depression as my mind had so little serotonin receptors left thanks to the SSRI that it couldn't function right.
Here I am 3 months later still with no sex drive or sexuality left, thousands in credit card debt, and depression which wasn't that bad before and who knows if I will ever get it back. Thankfully my gender dysphoria went away after staying off. I still have bursts of it which were never present before taking the medication. That was not me. This stuff changes you
Nod32, Kaspersky, MalwareBytes, Webroot, these have too many drawbacks or false positives or performance hits?
None of those are enterprise ready. So why corporations only use Mcrappy or Symantec? Because of endpoint enterprise management and custom GPOs. For example if you have an infected station the policies can remove it from the the domain and the Cisco port can be disabled automatically
Well party before country seems to be the norm over the exception. Look at what North Carolina did to their new governor elect. No budget for staff and stripping of power after the Republicans refused to concede governorship. It's hyper partisan
Asus has been in the news often this year on security holes in their routers. Go Google it? I purposely avoided them and bought a Linksys ac1900 which are their modern version of the WRT of last decade. It supports Tomato
I did have a surface 3. It was nice but it was short lived as someone stole it. It had the latest atom which was a quad core chip. Yes it was slow if you opened more than a few tabs of Chrome. However, it played Netflix in 1080P just fine and smooth without over heating and was great for Office work too.
Intel no longer makes the Atom and now makes an m3 as it's predecessor. I believe they are dual core with hyper threading for light work
If your GPU can't do h.264/5 acceleration then it probably won't run Windows 10 that well or at all. That includes 2008 era netbooks. Modern Atom's do h.264 just fine at 1080P. Your phone has had hardware acceleration for years now.
I had a coworker who owned a single core Atom from 2008. He returned it 3 days later as it couldn't even use Netflix on such a device.
I am cursing my RX 470. Hyper-V keeps freeze with all but 16.6 on Windows 10. SWTOR on that release makes one screen stay black and a reboot is required to get the screen back after I exit the game.
The other releases fix this bug but server 2016 on my vm gets a system thread exception otherwise on 1 out of 3 reboots.
I got modded -1 troll by some fanboys when I brought this up. Appearrently Nvidia is just as freaking horrible that many 1070 users lock their drivers from June as new bugs are in latest drivers.
No thanks. I won't purchase anything from the store if they pull that one.
Also amd driver installation will hose my system. I need a third party called DDU because it's buggy. I could hose my system if I use any store apps
Look I am turning quite conservative myself after studying economics. However, unlimited consumption is a fallacy. THe Great Depression proved this as economists at the time assumed people would simply lower their salaries and products would deflate and people would then buy again and all would go up and be good soon.
That didn't happen as the invisible hand amplified the problem where people and business consumed less and cut back which caused them to lay off workers who in turn cut back in a horrible vicious cycle waiting on the other to spend first.
It doesn't matter how much you value your labor back in 1931. Even if you worked for $0 no factory wanted to produce more as there were no spenders for their unsold products on shelves. Make it cheaper? Yeah, unless it is food no one would buy without a job or had one but with economic uncertainty.
Human nature responds to fear too and not just wanting to outdo the other guy. Jobs are more limited now thanks to automation and cheap outsourcing in expensive first world countries. That is a fact and is how Brexit and Donald Trump came to power. Consider ourselves lucky we have nice white collar jobs. Those who are not as bright or made poor choices are kind of screwed now as the jobs they once did are gone.
Problem is I do EUS end user support as well. That means if I work into an executive conference room and some VP or VIP client has a MS Surface with 10 I need to have the mouse clicks and screen memorized. Everything from logging out to changing TCP/IP settings are obscured or changed.
Worse if I want to work with a MS gold partner I need my MCSE Mouse Click System Engineer cert updated. HUGE mouse click and option memorization to pass these tests. Though I do give credit MS has made the tests very hard now:-)... as in 50% is now powershell scripting questions and more rigorous compared to the joke last decade. But still the only way to really learn is to use it and not just fire up a VM every once in a while to check something. I bit the bullet and went to 10 again this afternoon on rebuilt system dreadfully. I guess working around bugs will give me experience until I can become a Unix admin.
Again running servers does not count. THat is even more niche than uses with photoshop and illustrator as some people do photography as a hobby and any marketing department uses these tools for sales, commercials, promotional material creation, etc. However, if you hate Windows there is always the Mac for these users. I would argue MacOSX is superior to these folks due to things like color calibration and fonts, but Windows 7 and 10 have finally caught up to Mac of 1998:-)
So before blaming the user why should they go to Linux? What do they gain out of the deal? Can they run their apps such as excel macros or accounting software, turbo tax, odd printers software, video games, etc? Will Linux work eternally with updates with 0 CHANCE OF BREAKING?
Google the Hairyfeet challenge on Slashdot? Take any Linux distro and do more than 2 major release updates and see if it still works? It won't as no kernel ABI exists and XORG changes stuff all the time. THese users will try Linux and it will break eventually.
FreeBSD is much better OS for a unix for this reason, but again no real reason for a mortal to use it and learn to setup.
No offense but you don't work in IT unless you're a developer. If you are then I forgive you.
If you're an admin or end user support then 10 is a nightmare! Having something as fundamental as DHCP not working will wreak havoc in the office... And your career if problems keep hitting every few months. They will blame YOU not 10 after 3 or 4 outages.
Then you're fired or denied a promotion etc. We tend to hate change like Vista and 8 and now 10 as compliants are brought up each performance review
Thankfully I have a copy of acronis with an older 8.1image with updates disabled to just download. I install them manually a month or so later.
I really did want to keep 10 and if works fine for a few weeks and I always run into a problem every other month or so. So damn frustrating. I NEED to learn 10 for work as we will migrate soon but shit too many problems??

If you will notice, the iPhones and iPads have not been blessed with much 'innovation' these days. Just courage.
BUT BUT LOOK no headphone Jacks? They have no headphone jacks! Come on

This is your boss. Important clients use IE 6. Can we get it to work in IE 6 before the end of today?
Thanks

Um doctors get their information from drug salesmen. There are psychiatrists who do not like SSRIs as no one really knows for sure how they work.
I am a single person who says otherwise.
I had mild depression and bad OCD and other issues like fatigue or rather narcolepsy. After a bad breakup with an exgf and stuck in a job I was not too found of a doctor prescribed me Celexia or Citaprolom.

I know it's a good thing we run Symantec here ... Oh wait :-(
Actually is there any good AV solution for an IT department? And no saying telling users not to click on attachments won't fly?
Well party before country seems to be the norm over the exception. Look at what North Carolina did to their new governor elect. No budget for staff and stripping of power after the Republicans refused to concede governorship. It's hyper partisan
Notice DNSChanger impacting 1 in 5 restaurants and tens of millions of people before they came out with a fix?
Asus has been in the news often this year on security holes in their routers. Go Google it? I purposely avoided them and bought a Linksys ac1900 which are their modern version of the WRT of last decade. It supports Tomato
The M3 is more appropriate and faster than a celeron for a netbook or tablet resembling more of an Atom.
I did have a surface 3. It was nice but it was short lived as someone stole it. It had the latest atom which was a quad core chip. Yes it was slow if you opened more than a few tabs of Chrome.

I would laugh at Microsoft's incompetence but I'm too busy trying to get my Debian system to boot after its last update.
Isn't SystemD great?

THat will only work ... until the lease is up again.
A more permanent fix is to type
netsh winsock reset catalog
netsh int ipv4 reset reset.log
I use both.
Problem is I do EUS end user support as well. That means if I work into an executive conference room and some VP or VIP client has a MS Surface with 10 I need to have the mouse clicks and screen memorized. Everything from logging out to changing TCP/IP settings are obscured or changed.

There's no Windows software I need.
Well then you are not important. Who doesn't need Office in 2016? Really?
For someone important who is not a Unix admin there is no software in Linux they need either to throw it right back at ya
