For Windows it absolutely is in order of listing however. Typical behaviour is no reply after a second against the primary DNS results in it moving down the list.

Redundancy aside, this is more important when you span multiple datacenters and always want lookups going to the completely local or most local DC available.

TIL about the Linux/BSD not having preference though. Good to know.

I haven’t either. Maybe it’s because I don’t use any social media but Lemmy

Thanks for the post, super appreciate the posting of other communties. I think this is a great way to grow Lemmy and create discoverability for niche communities, I’ll keep that in mind myself on future opportunities.

Thats really interesting. I wonder how much the culture and expectations of norms in corporations makes a difference with this.

Have you worked in several all female crews as well? Its hard to judge when you don’t have a baseline to consider.

This is spot on from my experience as well, you can even see this dynamic play out within individual departments in the same company.

I hear you on the cold part. So many tripped breakers from space heaters… and that one time, a very angry UPS that got plugged into.

Same thing here, but I bought it when winter was coming. I’m nomadic during the warm season so the true test for me will be when that happens.

Same for me. Only thing that made it permenantly stick.

The attack vectors I’m thinking of just come from the inherent complexity and centralization. I’m just considering the amount of damage that can be done with a compromised DA account for example vs a non directory environment.

It’s complicated. Done right it can be more secure, not done right it’s less secure.

I also only get brought in for problems for the last however many years, so I’m probaby a bit biased at this point haha.

I have had to tell companies they are going to have to rebuild thier AD from scratch because they didn’t know what thier DSRM password was (usually after a ransomware attack). These are the sort of hassles I think about vs non AD.

You could look at freeIPA or something similar to stay on Linux.

I’m an AD specialist, starting when it came out with server 2000, and can tell you it’s a waste of time for a home network unless you are doing this just because you want to learn it.

It will definitly not make your life any easier, and will increase attack vectors, especially if you don’t know how to secure and protect it.

First family computer I used was a TI99 4/a, this was around 1983 or so, with tape deck. Used to type in programs from magazines. I grew up using BBSs, Lan parties, freenet, and shared university accounts when the internet still wasn’t publically accessible.

My first computer that was my own I remember well because it was unique, a dual Pentium pro which was the first i686 and that processor line went on to power ASCI red to become the first supercomputer to reach a teraflop. Dual CPUs in consumer hardware was very unique for the time, it was more classed a workstation then a computer.

Know a manager of an oil rig.

Away from friends and family for months at a time, extremely dangerous, 12+ hour shifts, constantly dealing with issues with staff and all around miserable and stressful. Said he wished he had gotten into literally anything else.

Or you could brush your teeth at work and get paid at the same time 😁

Yeah love it 😁

I’ve also done the same, it’s been great.

Sounds like you could use some beef stroganoff

I’ve never went back to campaign actually, I lost my progress at one point and not sure how far I made it. Now I just play master level sandbox, max AI players, huge map.

The usb OS drive for Unraid is to load the OS to RAM. Using the SSDs for an OS vs cache drives seems like a waste to me.

I’ve used a whole range of NAS platforms and devices over the years and nothing compares to Unraid for a solid all in one solution for a homelab.
