my ipad pro 13 is very needs suiting. my friend has a paperscreen on hers, and i'm getting one of those because it feels so nice writing with the apple pen on it. wonderful texture.

we have whatever the cheapest current ipad is and a lenovo 10” tablet (one tablet for each kid). the ipad is lighter, has a better screen, has a much nicer UI that doesn’t feel laggy, and Just Works The lenovo (it’s an m10 apparently) one is heavy af, clunky to use, and has a much faster draining battery. but it was 1/3rd the cost hth

nothing illustrates how bad the android tablet situation is better than the second best option behind an ipad is getting a windows tablet. this should likely be read as "don't get anything but an ipad"

can anyone recommend a good web-based admin thingo for postfix? something that just makes configuring virtual domains, aliases and mailboxes easier than having to edit config files or whatever. i need to setup an internal MTA at work so servers can just shunt e-mails between each other and poo poo, figured it would be easier for my colleagues to support if it had a GUI. is postfix even the main generally recommended MTA any more?

i have tons of ostensibly fancy "entertainment" equipment at home for a "smooth media experience" but in the YOLD 3188 it is still basically impossible to seamlessly stream a video from my laptop to the tv (literally impossible if crazy features like subtitles are required). the state of consumer tech is just horrible

Gaming on Linux is surprisingly easy with Proton, but I'm having this weird issue with Elden Ring where about every other time I close the game, it just hangs forever on the next boot. I think it's related to Easy Anti-Cheat, verifying the game files causes it to reinstall on the next boot and then it works perfectly fine, idk.

Jenny Agutter posted:just plug it into the front aux hdmi port on your receiver then I need to get another USB-C to HDMI adapter because putting ports on laptops is no longer cool Jenny Agutter posted:just plug it into the front aux hdmi port on your receiver the thing that most often works is chromecast. there used to be a "chrome app" called "videostream for chrome" which worked alright (if it was one of the lucky days where the magic chromecast discovery worked), but it was deprecated a while ago and even though i still have it installed, opening it just flashes a page that closes immediately again. casting a local file directly from chrome doesn't work with most encodings and container formats (chrome opening .mkv? nah, not happening). so now that videostream is dead i've been using vlc's new built-in chromecast support, which doesn't support subtitles (becomes important e.g. in shows like better call saul, where an entire scene might be in spanish, which i don't speak) and doesn't support pausing videos. or well, you can pause them and resume for a few seconds, but then it freezes up and you gotta restart the whole shebang. my tv is from LG and supports dlna, but that doesn't support basic functionality like selecting an audio track and definitely no subtitles, if it even works at all. i think in principle chromecast is close to what i want, but i want all the "magic" features gone (please don't make me ever debug some multicast bullshit, just let me set a static IP) and all basic features supported. in practice what i'll likely end up doing is buying a NUC or something and putting it under the TV and plugging it in with a good old cable.

The first thing you need to understand is if the group is an office365/azuread cloud-only group or if it was a group synced from your local ad. If its an office365/azure ad cloud-only group you can either use the azure ad powershell module or remote in to your exchange instance and run the exchange online powershell commands. the azure ad ones are probably better and easier at this point. If its a local ad group synced to office 365/azuread you cant modify it from the local and you must use the local ad power shell module after which your changes will be synced up. for azure ad i think its just install-module azuread. For activedirectory i think its like enable-windowsfeature rsat-ad-powershell or something idr. you can also install it thru the windows features ui in settings.

Captain Foo posted:get-adgroup  this is an exchange distribution group i'm trying to manage and it didn't occur to me, a person who lacks exchange server permissions and is regularly frustrated by all things email, to try to grab it by its corresponding domain ad object because I didn't know it had one: >get-adgroup -identity "#Distlist Name" DistinguishedName: CN= etc. etc.  So that's fun. Thanks!

since its a local ad group you wouldnt be able to edit the membership with azure ad anyway so its all good. unless its changed recently, when using ad connect to sync ad objects from local to azure, its a 1 way sync. This means you cant edit azure ad groups (and some user properties) directly in azure ad as those changes would never sync back down to your local AD. the only way to do it is the way you're doing it, so no problems there. however, it is possible that you run into a group that was created cloud only and if you want to modify those you'll need to do it in azure ad either using the UI or powershell. and if for some reason they wont let you install the azure ad powershell module locally you can run it using the web console on https://portal.azure.com

Shaggar posted:running your own mail server in 2022 is insane. posting back on this because of new developments. if you read my post you'd have noticed that i said "internal MTA" so that "servers can just shunt e-mails between each other and poo poo." EXO/M365 is overkill for that poo poo. however the new development is that we are undergoing ACSC IRAP assessment (as i understand it's effectively equivalent to FedRAMP) and as such it'll be easier for us to just spin up a separate dedicated AAD/M365 tenancy for the environment ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Shaggar posted:why would one internal server need to send email to another internal server? send email out of the network to humans thru a gateway sure, but to each other? yeah it wasn't my idea. the requirement came from some greybeard in our team that was talking about emails from systemd (poo poo that normally ends up in /var/spool/whatever) as well as reports from AIDE. we're already putting Beats agents on these boxes so i'll just tell them that if they want e-mails then they can pull them with Filebeat either direct or with the journal module, also AIDE can gently caress-off for the moment i can sort that later.

iirc the only write-back supported by AADC is for passwords (to support sspr). that said AADC is built on-top of MIM/FIM which is real nightmare fuel (custom transforms and poo poo implemented by pointing it at DLLs, insane black-box hosed poo poo made more insane when going SAP->AD->SAP->AD->Salesforce->SAP->AD). AADC is good because it doesn't let you do that
