Obstructed a road, how dare they! Cannot believe they were supporting people who are so obviously breaking the law. Where were the police? People were just trying to get to work/shops/holidays. Protesting is fine but why do they need to impact normal people just trying to get on with their lives. What if an ambulance was trying to get through? What if it made someone miss work and got fired, we're in a cost of living crisis don't you know. Can't believe they did it so close to mother's day, people are just trying to enjoy their holidays with loved ones.

/s just in case...

I saw a news alert saying conference coming up and thought it might be declaring the election. I watched it live and was equally like what the fuck was the point of that. I swear he doesn't more time talking about Islamic extremism than anything else, but mostly saying nothing at all and offering no new solutions or anything. I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking we just was the point of it

I think you're right. These type of infrastructure investments tend to be Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs). As they are hard to exit from and risky, only "sophisticated" investors can invest, i.e. no retail investors can.

Oh man, I've managed to get far enough into all this that I have a few things working well but i went through so many periods exactly like that.

The family nagging really hits home! "This should be working, I did everything it said" only goes so far haha.

My latest one was that I was helping my neighbour with their internet setup so was on their WiFi. Of course I completely forgot so when I was home trying to SSH into my headless server, it just would not work but I knew my server was working because I was watching Plex on my TV. It took my way longer than it should've and I even restarted the server manually before realising I was just on the wrong network...

Exactly same here. Even with the loss of content, I was happy to carry on as I wanted 4k so had to take 4 screens, but shared with my sister and mum. In exchange, my sister bought Disney plus so was a good arrangement. When they took away sharing, 4k was not worth it. What am I going to do with 4 screens when I don't even have that many people in the house! Now we buy neither service and sail the seas. I'd rather pay for Usenet or Debrid than these jokers.

Also, it got annoying that half the decent TV shows ended after two seasons. You get invested and then bam, you'll never see it again.

Both of these are purely Netflix's decisions.

I found that it really depends on the app and how they've set it up. For the vast majority, the users in your SSO will be added to the other app when they first login. I use Authentik and Nextdoor, and the user is automatically created from details from Authentik. Generally you can enable multiple login types so can play with SSO whilst still enabling access until it works. You can usually switch off non-SSO access afterwards too.

You set which field defines the user (e.g. username or email). If there is already a user then it'll just login to that account you already created, so you can also create a user in both.

You can limit access to certain groups of users in Authentik. You can also setup headers that get passed along to apps (e.g. in Nextcloud you can setup a size limit for each group that gets passed on to Nextcloud when they first register - the Authentik or Nextcloud documentation tells you how).

I found quite a few apps don't have SSO functionality, and I usually end up doing a reverse proxy pass through Authentik. Nginx Proxy Manager first goes to Authentik, you login then it'll pass you to the app. If already logged into Authentik, NPM takes you directly to the app. I switched off login altogether on the apps, especially for tools where you don't need users (e.g. Stirling PDF). Only logged users get to the app. Authentik can forward any headers you set so I have a feeling you can use it for the app's own login (though not new users) but not managed to work it out.

One app I tried recently had SSO but you couldn't enable access to the main household for new SSO users so had to create an account in the app first, then SSO would let users login. I ended up not using that app for other reasons anyway.

I do recommend Authentik and you can setup access one by one so definitely try it and see.

I've been having the same issue for the last few hours, although gave up and am watching live TV

[–] brewery@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago

I've completed it. Will you share the summary when complete?

Cisco do free networking courses which teach the fundamentals. The one I did was more theoretical than practical but it really helped me think of what Im really trying to achieve and learning the terminology was really helpful, especially later when trying to troubleshoot and finding help online that was a struggle before the course.

There are assessments as you progress and a certificate at the end.

They also have virtual software you can play around with for different potential configurations. Thats much cheaper than buying lots of hardware!

Its pretty disgusting of all the ones who rejected her and well done to the one who finally took her. Shame on all of them as humans, let alone “licenced professionals". It cant add that much to the journey times, especially as they happily sit outside train stations and airports waiting for fares!

Everytime the London black cabbies go on strike or complain about Uber’s business practices, I always cant help but think how much I’ve hated the black cab industry, at least in the UK. I know the Knowledge is difficuly but its also almost useless with technology. Card machines never working, “I’m not going that way", they often dont pick up ethnic minorities, they avoid poorer areas,, questionable route taking to increase fees, not actually knowing roads/addresses, don't help with luggage, dangerous parking and manouvers, racist/sexist “banter". Dont get me wrong, Uber has issues too but I've never looked back.

At least for me it was always just an inconvenience. I cant imagine how frustrating it is for disabled people who have no other option, see these taxis advertising how they are wheelchair accessible are and knowing the law is very clear.

Exactly! I would be fired for sending one message over personal devices from my work at a private company. My friend is a social worker for a council and would be struck off for life for sending one. These are clearly told to us, reinforced regularly and lets be clear, it is so easy to follow!
