Chinese intelligence hacked State Department emails in ‘significant’ breach

  • That's not good at all but sadly I am not surprised. Gov''t does a lot of stupid shit.

    • What can a senior desktop support tech do who is burned out?

    Jump

  • I don't think I mind the support aspect. I just want to work at higher level than I am currently at where I have more challenge and reward.

    • Hackers exploit gaping Windows loophole to give their malware kernel access

    Jump

  • IMHO, Windows itself is malware. 🤣 But seriously, generally signing services that have not been verified and vetted leads to bad things.

  • In other words, your company is one of the rare ones that runs itself intelligently.

    • Synology vs DIY

  • I use rsync with an offsite backup.

    • Synology vs DIY

  • When I was evaluating a NAS, I ended up DIY because it was easier, less expensive, and had better specs than what Synology was offering. You can run TrueNAS.

    • Analysis | Printer ink is a scam. Here’s how to spend less.

    Jump

  • IMHO, inkjet printers as a whole are a scam. That is, unless you buy a really high end one for professional photo printing.

    • Email self-hosting

    Jump

  • Maybe I'll try it with my throwaway domain, fugzied.com. I did host my own email 8 years ago. I can imagine the landscape has changed.

    • What replacement for each major social media do you use

    Jump

    • Permanently Deleted

  • Saying no I'll bet increases the scrutiny that you're going to get.

    • An increasingly concerning and very long job posting I found.

    Jump

  • That's enough of a job description to just nope and move on.

    • Who here still wears a mask?

    Jump

  • I will wear a mask if I know that I am going to be potentially packed in in a space with little in the way of positive air flow.

    • What can a senior desktop support tech do who is burned out?

    Jump

  • This is why now it is a good time for me to hunker down and simply learn and get through this tough time. Much as I hate dealing with the over-privileged assholes in state government, I'll do what I have to whilst learning.

    • What's it like working night shift?

    Jump

  • The night shift for me was the purest form of hell. My favorite shift was the 2-10, 3-11.

    • What can a senior desktop support tech do who is burned out?

    Jump

  • I don't know why I am languishing as senior desktop support then. It seems I lack the ability to even get my resume in front of anyone, let alone an interview.

  • I for one am happy to watch it die! Burn baby burn! 🔥

    • Big Tech can transfer Europeans’ data to US in win for Facebook and Google

  • I am willing to check this out. It looks interesting.

  • That's really good that you were able to get out. I guess I could consider Tableau and SQL but I literally have zero passion or interest in it/for it. If I am going to make a change, this time it both has to make monetary sense and has to be something that I don't hate every waking minute of.
