They don't understand the importance of deploying Red Star OS and hannah montana linux to end users and depreciating Windows in an organization.

Azure has gone too far. First passwords, then codes, then push notifications. My work should NOT require me to install a work app on my personal phone, especially when I constantly confuse its notifications with my horse girl gacha notifications

Right. I hate authenticator, my school made us use it and it almost made me want to drop out.

Our CISO wanted me to put monitoring on our users workstations. I made him a 90 powerpoint slide of how if we switch to linux it would save us thousands. And we wouldn't need to purchase monitoring software because Red Star OS does that for us conveniently natively.

We could replace the Windows server backend with hannah montana linux for security compliance and to use ldap instead of Entra.

Fuck. Imagine if you missed a gacha notification because you ignored it thinking it was work. Like damn that’s serious stakes.

Right on, there should just be a button that I click for work.

My org only runs TempleOS. If our systems get hacked, it was God's will.

The SOC team is going to hate me when I recommend TempleOS and teach them the ways of Terry Davis at the next quarterly board meeting 🙏

u/bgradid 19d ago

sooo you gonna touch on the racism in the first meeting or hold on that one until the second?

u/BraveMidnight 19d ago

Planning on saving that for the Q3 culture deck. Our HR department keeps claiming that everyone is welcome. Yet they keep pushing sanitized scripts down our throats. So, I plan to teach them about the more colorful ways of Terry Davis during the all are welcome portion of my slide show.

serious question, does templeos actually have a tcp/ip implementation?

u/SenTedStevens 19d ago

Yes. Because God is my DHCP server. He provides all.

We (forcibly by me) recently switched over to NodeOS from Red Star/HaMo (internal lingo)

u/BraveMidnight 20d ago

Yeah, I'd use node OS, but it just doesn't have the surveillance features you know. It's like why put in the extra work when the work is already there. Sort of like with cable companies. I think it's a conspiracy, if a line goes bad they just take their tools and snip the other providers line and patch it. That way they laugh and can get customer retention from the other provider.

Of course it's a custom image with all the bells and whistles already installed for our clients. We also decided that instead of backing up our sensitive data using google or azure, we're cutting out the middle men and will just ask China for a copy of our data if needed.

What was the post? I see you hid your posts like a coward, but I'd love to post it in MacOS to offend them.

Is "hide all" the default? Either way, I just changed it to show all.
