@fennix @SitaDulip nodds in agreement I tend to use #UbuntuLTS since once setup and properly configured, it's basically 5+5 years (from date of release) of "install and forget"...

I usually tend to just setup a minimalist system in a VM and then just copy it over...

Infosec.SpaceKevin Karhan :verified: (@kkarhan@infosec.space)@SitaDulip@gamepad.club AFAIK @ubuntu@ubuntu.social / #UbuntuLTS Server should launch an #SSH Server to access it's installer at boot. - Basically you [modify](https://raspberrytips.com/headless-ubuntu-server-installation/) the #CloudInit configuration file. - Same can be done with [Debian](https://www.tecmint.com/setup-headless-linux-server/). Either way, you'd setup a minimalist system as a bootable image you can #SSH into and yoink that onto the target system to boot. - Another option is to basically setup the system in a #VM and then ```dd``` the virtual HDD into an image you can then ```dd``` onto the target machine. If time isn't critical, any halfway decent flashdrive will do, otherwise a 2,5" SSD (in a USB Caddy) is an option as well...

@ravirockks OFC they don't.

At best they show people how to change fan curves in the #UEFI or hiw to run #memtest86+, but mostly they just "teach" people how to consume #Windows and at best #macOS and that's it.

Same with @libreoffice / #LibreOffice & @thunderbird / #Thunderbird.

@jakob_thoboell @DigitalWriter@bildung.social @jdohrmann insbesondere passt der Vergleich weil IT nicht wie kommerzielle zivile Luftfahrt ist und Piloten dort nur auf nachweislich trainierten Jets eingesetzt werden dürfen...

kirche.socialJakob Thoböll - R.I.P. Natenom (@jakob_thoboell@kirche.social)@_DigitalWriter_@bildung.social Was mich erschreckt ist allerdings das Festbeißen zwischen Ausbildung und Job: So oft höre ich "Leute müssen in der Schule an Windows ausgebildet werden, da dass das ist, was der Arbeitsmarkt braucht." Leute: Wenn mir ein Handwerksgeselle sagt, er kann nur mit Makita umgehen oder ein Berufskraftfahrer, er kann nur auf MAN fahren, dann würde jeder Arbeitgeber dessen Eignung für das Grund-Skillset in Frage stellen... Nur beim PC scheint das normal zu sein @kkarhan@infosec.space @jdohrmann@social.cologne

@douglevin see, this is why I act aus "#BenevolentDictator" and literally lockdown stuff so hard #TechIlliterates cant fuck up!

  • Unless you put that option on the table as a.fellot #TechLiterate, you won't be able to survive this game.

I wasted 15+ years of my life trying to make #Windows somewhat secure to come to terms with the fact that ut's an #unfixable #Givware that is #UnsafeAtAnyConfiguration / #InsecureAtAnyConfiguration.

  • Believe me when I'd tell you that "#Users" like her don't give a shit about what Hardware/OS they get: Just set her up once with a good config (i.e. #UbuntuLTS if you're lazy like me), backup all the important stuff, setup regular backups, remove #sudo privilegues and then you'd only need to check in once a year at most if not have a system that just runs for the next 2-5 years without intervention.

On the flipside I've seen cases where #Scam|my Sales Reps were able to upsell some 5-digit 21,5" gaming monster to a photographer that uses ACDSee to do minimalist editing of their JPEGs.

At least I won't deal with #Windows11 or any of that shite because noone is gonna pay me enough to loose my sanity over such a garbage software!

@mjdxp @efi @puppygirlhornypost2 personally, I'm glad that I only need #UbuntuLTS, but if I ever were to supoort #RHEL or #SLED I'd just use my existing developer agreements which allow me to setup as many installs as I like for testing, development, support and evaluation pending I don't use them "in production" aka. run my business off them.

In terms of commercial distros I'd actually consider buying a subscription, #Ubuntu is the option I'd consider given it's entirely optional to get their commercial support and the only difference besides support are few addon features, and not entirely different distros that have vast differences between the "open" and "commercial" offerings in terms of underlying architecture.

  • But maybe it's just me being unwilling to pay 8x (#RedHat) or 4x (#SUSE) of what #Canonical demands for the same SLAs... [based off a real-life cost analysis for a fmr. employer/client]
