Well, first they are lying to you. You don’t have to hand out certificates manually and that isn’t how Intune does it either. They are provisioned using SCEP generally, which has its own security drawbacks. You can get these certificates from a SCEP server using a tool like Certmonger.

Most companies that say they don’t officially support Linux already have you sign an acceptable-use agreement to only use company-provided hardware and approved software. And while they may act like they’ll make a special exception for you, you better make sure you got it in writing and in a way that would comply with your other employment agreements. One thing most IT employees don’t have the privilege of is negotiating the legal terms of their employment. There are already multiple US cases of employees being criminalized for breaking their employer’s AUP.

I wish you the best of luck, but feel like you’re prob in for a harsh reality.

The funny thing is that most politicians know it is make believe yet they pretend to be religious just to get the votes. It is also a highly effective mechanism to subdue and control the population and manipulate them.

What I see in this story is a question of whether Brahim Chnina ever was actually in contact with Abdoullakh Anzorov, and if he was if he ever instructed or encouraged violence against Samuel Paty. I wouldn’t be surprised if he did, but I also wouldn’t be surprised if they are attempting to use this incident to criminalize free speech, which is exactly what it appears Samuel Paty would not have wanted.

Here in the US, would we want the government locking people up for calling Trump a fascist or even a Nazi, especially if one of the alleged assassination attempts had been successful? If I make a video saying I hate Marjorie Taylor Greene and she’s a dangerous sociopath, and the next day they go and kill her, does that mean I should be locked up as well? What if I call Trump the antichrist… afterall, it could be claimed that I participated in a video presenting “false and distorted information intended to arouse hatred.”

You can use Wi-Fi certificates on Linux without needing Intune. Is the real issue here that your workplace doesn’t want to give you the info you need to use Linux?

What would having Intune offer you personally? Are you a smart Linux user or barely know enough to be dangerous?

Go to your IT department or management and tell them you want to use Linux for work if that is what you want, and if they say no then make up your mind if you’re willing to become a braindead zombie for the company, or if you’d rather be doing something actually useful and meaningful with your time.

And in other news, X still requires users to sign in to see almost anything.

Democrats are still always posting on X, and then users are forced to sign up for X to see their post, and then users are radicalized by the nonstop bots and AI feed manipulation going on by Musk… Pretty soon there will be no Democrats left.

50 children? The Biden/Harris administration sees this as a combo where the US will now reward Israel with a billion for every 10 killed.

Lol… I was a religious Arch user for a long time. I miss running Linux as my primary OS in s lot of ways, although when I do it again it’ll be an ephemeral distro, but I had to get things done and the support and prioritization of apps that make me productive right isn’t there. I don’t blame open source developers though but large software companies that deprioritize and fudge cross platform software.

Despite Microsoft having done some contribution to open source, their culture is still very toxic and counterproductive. Graphics card makers have also intentionally locked vGPU support for consumers, almost like they’re intentionally preventing efficient Windows on Linux support.

The only people complaining about Linux users are people who just got hired by Microsoft and are trying to convince themselves Windows is the best.

Egypt naive enough to think the genocide was about hostages.

Good point. The also target depressed apathetic people that have given up or aren’t in a healthy mental state to be making choices. They also target other mental illnesses.

Because they have blackmail on all the politicians

Because they are scams that target uneducated, poor and old people.

As people get ready to vote here in the US, one issue I haven’t even heard brought up is the lack of privacy regulations in the US. Do most people not care if the person they’re voting for is fine with every corporation selling and sharing personal data?

Regulations

More like what happens when low pay attracts employees that don’t give a shit.

Let’s continue to give them tax exemptions while they vote against us. That’ll help us best em!

CNN was working overtime today with stories like… “Why the killing of Palestinian, I mean Hamas, Oct 7 orchestrator might be good news for Kamala Harris.”

I agree fuck Trump and his MAGA cult for a million reasons, but also fuck Harris and her establishment cult for thousands of reasons. If she wants the vote from the people saying enough is enough, then she can earn it. She should stop blaming everyone else, stop sending out Obama to say black men are chauvinistic, stop parading around with the Cheney’s and praising war criminals, and to focus on the American people and what Americans want.
