TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

I use Linux on all my devices. Have done so for years. But hot take: the Windows PC that is issued to me by work, and managed by the IT department, is actually not that bad. Basically every major complaint that people tend to have about Windows is already mitigated for me by Global Policy stuff and whatnot that IT configures. I get updates that are only LTS type releases, and am provided with ample warning so it never interrupts my work or anything.
But on my personal devices? I would hate to go back to actually managing a Windows PC for myself. Fedora is just simple.
If you know the group policy that will make my fans stop for the first time since I was forced to upgrade to 11, I will be forever in your debt. I do have admin privileges to the AD despite being pretty clueless to all things microsoft.
I have no idea
I think I might know where your companies AD/GPO issues stem from.
(Not blaming you specifically; just your company’s general security posture)
I have all the keys to all the things and the delegation authority to farm out what I don't know enough about. I'm not going to go lick the mains, but I have they the key to the building's electrical cage.
The last three jobs I had were like this. I'm a web developer with an interest in IT, so after a few months I always get to manage all of the IT. 🥹
Pros:
Cons:
Group Policy and Windows Server Update Services fix a huge amount of issues in corporate domains. If you know PowerShell and Active Directory, a windows fleet is easy to manage. Linux has nothing like the above except for auth through LDAP.
